II. Summary of Petitioned-for Tolerance

    In the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28009) (FRL-8823-2)
and the Federal Register of February 25, 2011 (76 FR 10584) (FRL-8863-
3), EPA issued notices pursuant to section 408(d)(3) of FFDCA, 21
U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of pesticide petitions (PP
9E7650 and PP 0E7790) by Nissan Chemical Industries, Inc., c/o Lewis &
Harrison, 122 C St., NW., Suite 740, Washington, DC 20001. The
petitions requested that 40 CFR part 180 be amended by establishing
tolerances for residues of the fungicide amisulbrom, 3-[(3-bromo-6-
fluoro-2-methyl-1H-indole-1-yl) sulfonyl]-N,N-dimethyl-1H-1,2,4-
triazole-1-sulfonamide, in or on grapes at 0.4 parts per million (ppm),
raisins at 1.0 ppm (PP 9E7650), tomato at 0.5 ppm, and tomato paste at
1.2 ppm (PP 0E7790). The notices referenced summaries of the petitions
prepared by Nissan Chemical Industries, Inc., the registrant, which are
available in the docket, http://www.regulations.gov. There were no
comments received in response to the notices of filing.

III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety

    Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish a
tolerance (the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a
food) only if EPA determines that the tolerance is ``safe.'' Section
408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines ``safe'' to mean that ``there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure
to the pesticide chemical residue, including all anticipated dietary
exposures and all other exposures for which there is reliable
information.'' This includes exposure through drinking water and in
residential settings, but does not include occupational exposure.
Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to give special
consideration to exposure of infants and children to the pesticide
chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to ``ensure that there
is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to infants and
children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue. * *
*''
    Consistent with section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, and the factors
specified in section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, EPA has reviewed the
available scientific data and other relevant information in support of
this action. EPA has sufficient data to assess the hazards of and to
make a determination on aggregate exposure for amisulbrom including
exposure resulting from the tolerances established by this action.
EPA's assessment of exposures and risks associated with amisulbrom
follows.

A. Toxicological Profile

    EPA has evaluated the available toxicity data and considered its
validity, completeness, and reliability as well as the relationship of
the results of the studies to human risk. EPA has also considered
available information concerning the variability of the sensitivities
of major identifiable subgroups of consumers, including infants and
children.
    Amisulbrom is of low acute toxicity by the oral, dermal and
inhalation routes and is not irritating to the eyes and skin. Rat,
mouse, and rabbit studies indicate that amisulbrom systemic toxicity is
primarily characterized by decreases in body weight and body weight
gain, and reduced food consumption and/or efficiency. Based on the
results of the acute and subchronic oral neurotoxicity studies in rats,
as well as other subchronic and chronic studies, a developmental
neurotoxicity (DNT) study is not needed for amisulbrom. None of these
studies indicated specific neurotoxicity responses to amisulbrom. The
T-cell dependent antibody response (TDAR) assay showed no evidence of
treatment-related effects in rat and mouse immunotoxicity studies. The
rat

developmental toxicity study demonstrated cleft palate and other
malformations only at the highest doses. There were no effects in the
fetuses in the rabbit developmental toxicity study at the highest dose
tested.
    In accordance with the EPA's Final Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk
Assessment (March 2005), amisulbrom is classified as ``Suggestive
Evidence of Carcinogenic Potential''. This classification is based on:
Liver tumors in male mice at both an adequate and excessive dose; liver
tumors in both sexes of rats only at an excessive dose; and forestomach
tumors in female rats also only at an excessive dose.
    In the case of amisulbrom, a cancer risk from dietary exposure is
of low concern based on the following considerations:
     The liver tumors seen in male mice only were benign with
no progression to malignancy;
     The liver tumors in rats seen only at excessive doses
(i.e., greater than the Limit Dose of 1,000 milligrams/kilogram/day
(mg/kg/day)) were also benign with no progression to malignancy;
     The forestomach tumors seen only in female rats occurred
only at an excessive dose which was greater than the Limit-Dose;
     None of these tumors resulted in reduced latency; and
     There is no concern for mutagenicity/genotoxicity.
    In sum, the only evidence showing any concern for carcinogenicity
is the occurrence of benign liver tumors in one sex and one species
(i.e., male mice). Given the marginal evidence relating to potential
carcinogenicity, the Agency has determined that the chronic population
adjusted dose (PAD) will adequately account for all chronic effects,
including carcinogenicity, likely to result from exposure to
amisulbrom.
    Specific information on the studies received and the nature of the
adverse effects caused by amisulbrom as well as the no-observed-
adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) and the lowest-observed-adverse-effect-
level (LOAEL) from the toxicity studies can be found at http://www.regulations.gov in document ``Amisulbrom. Human-Health Risk
Assessment for the Establishment of Tolerances for Amisulbrom Fungicide
in/on Imported Grape and Tomato'' at page 23 in docket ID number EPA-
HQ-OPP-2010-0186.

B. Toxicological Points of Departure/Levels of Concern

    Once a pesticide's toxicological profile is determined, EPA
identifies toxicological points of departure (POD) and levels of
concern to use in evaluating the risk posed by human exposure to the
pesticide. For hazards that have a threshold below which there is no
appreciable risk, the toxicological POD is used as the basis for
derivation of reference values for risk assessment. PODs are developed
based on a careful analysis of the doses in each toxicological study to
determine the dose at which no adverse effects are observed (the NOAEL)
and the lowest dose at which adverse effects of concern are identified
(the LOAEL). Uncertainty/safety factors are used in conjunction with
the POD to calculate a safe exposure level--generally referred to as a
PAD or a reference dose (RfD)--and a safe margin of exposure (MOE). For
non-threshold risks, the Agency assumes that any amount of exposure
will lead to some degree of risk. Thus, the Agency estimates risk in
terms of the probability of an occurrence of the adverse effect
expected in a lifetime. For more information on the general principles
EPA uses in risk characterization and a complete description of the
risk assessment process, see http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/factsheets/riskassess.htm.
    A summary of the toxicological endpoints for amisulbrom used for
human risk assessment is shown in the following Table 1.

C. Exposure Assessment

    1. Dietary exposure from food and feed uses. In evaluating dietary
exposure to amisulbrom, EPA considered exposure under the petitioned-
for tolerances. EPA assessed dietary exposures from amisulbrom in food
as follows:
    i. Acute exposure. Quantitative acute dietary exposure and risk
assessments

are performed for a food-use pesticide, if a toxicological study has
indicated the possibility of an effect of concern occurring as a result
of a 1-day or single exposure. Such effects were identified for
amisulbrom. In estimating acute dietary exposure, EPA used food
consumption information from the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) 1994-1996 and 1998 Nationwide Continuing Surveys of
Food Intake by Individuals (CSFII). As to residue levels in food, EPA
used tolerance level residues, default processing factors, and 100%
crop treated assumptions to characterize the acute dietary exposure
assessment.
    ii. Chronic exposure. In conducting the chronic dietary exposure
assessment EPA used the food consumption data from the USDA 1994-1996
and 1998 CSFII. As to residue levels in food, EPA used tolerance level
residues, default processing factors, and 100% crop treated assumptions
to characterize the chronic dietary exposure assessment.
    iii.  Cancer. EPA determines whether quantitative cancer exposure
and risk assessments are appropriate for a food-use pesticide based on
the weight of the evidence from cancer studies and other relevant data.
Cancer risk is quantified using a linear or nonlinear approach. If
sufficient information on the carcinogenic mode of action is available,
a threshold or non-linear approach is used and a cancer RfD is
calculated based on an earlier non-cancer key event. If carcinogenic
mode of action data are not available, or if the mode of action data
determines a mutagenic mode of action, a default linear cancer slope
factor approach is utilized. Based on the data summarized in Unit
III.A., EPA has concluded that a nonlinear RfD approach will be
protective of any cancer risk posed by amisulbrom. Cancer risk was
assessed using the same exposure estimates as discussed in Unit
III.C.1.ii., chronic exposure.
    iv. Anticipated residue and percent crop treated (PCT) information.
EPA did not use anticipated residue and/or PCT information in the
dietary assessment for amisulbrom. Tolerance level residues and/or 100%
CT were assumed for all food commodities.
    2. Dietary exposure from drinking water. Pesticide residues in
drinking water are not expected. These tolerances are for residues of
amisulbrom in/on imported grapes and tomatoes and there are no
pesticide registrations in the United States associated with the
tolerances. Therefore, the presence of amisulbrom in drinking water in
this country resulting from the treatment of crops is not expected.
    3. From non-dietary exposure. The term ``residential exposure'' is
used in this document to refer to non-occupational, non-dietary
exposure (e.g., for lawn and garden pest control, indoor pest control,
termiticides, and flea and tick control on pets).
    Amisulbrom is not registered for use in the United States;
therefore, residential exposures are not expected.
    4. Cumulative effects from substances with a common mechanism of
toxicity. Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) of FFDCA requires that, when
considering whether to establish, modify, or revoke a tolerance, the
Agency consider ``available information'' concerning the cumulative
effects of a particular pesticide's residues and ``other substances
that have a common mechanism of toxicity.''
    EPA has not found amisulbrom to share a common mechanism of
toxicity with any other substances, and amisulbrom does not appear to
produce a toxic metabolite produced by other substances. For the
purposes of this tolerance action, therefore, EPA has assumed that
amisulbrom does not have a common mechanism of toxicity with other
substances. For information regarding EPA's efforts to determine which
chemicals have a common mechanism of toxicity and to evaluate the
cumulative effects of such chemicals, see EPA's Web site at http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/cumulative.

D. Safety Factor for Infants and Children

    1. In general. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA provides that EPA
shall apply an additional tenfold (10X) margin of safety for infants
and children in the case of threshold effects to account for prenatal
and postnatal toxicity and the completeness of the database on toxicity
and exposure unless EPA determines based on reliable data that a
different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. This
additional margin of safety is commonly referred to as the FQPA Safety
Factor (SF). In applying this provision, EPA either retains the default
value of 10X, or uses a different additional safety factor when
reliable data available to EPA support the choice of a different
factor.
    2. Prenatal and postnatal sensitivity. There was an apparent
indication of prenatal sensitivity in the rat developmental toxicity
study. There were no effects in the dams at the highest dose tested
(1,000 mg/kg/day). However, several of the rat fetuses in two litters
were noted to have malformations and alterations including cleft
palate, bent scapula, humerus ulna and/or radius, constricted spinal
cord in the cervical region, cervical kyphosis, and medially thickened/
kinked ribs with distorted ribcage. The NOAEL for the offspring in the
rat developmental study was 300 mg/kg/day. There were no indications of
increased postnatal offspring sensitivity in the rat reproduction study
where the NOAEL (~54 mg/kg/day) and LOAEL (~274 mg/kg/day) for the pups
was the same as for the parents. There were no effects in the rabbit
developmental toxicity study at the highest dose tested (300 mg/kg/
day). Since effects in the rat pups in the developmental toxicity study
occur at a dose (1,000 mg/kg/day) well above the NOAELs used for risk
assessment (54 and 200 mg/kg/day), no additional UF for sensitivity/
susceptibility in the developing animal is needed because the
application of the lower NOAEL will be protective against possible
developmental effects in the offspring. Based on the available data and
the selection of risk assessment endpoints that are protective of
developmental effects, there are no residual uncertainties with regard
to prenatal and/or postnatal toxicity.
    3. Conclusion. EPA has determined that reliable data show the
safety of infants and children would be adequately protected if the
FQPA SF were reduced to 1X. That decision is based on the following
findings:
    i. The toxicity database for amisulbrom is complete.
    ii. Neither the rat subchronic neurotoxicity screen studies or the
rat multigenerational reproduction study or other subchronic or chronic
studies indicated specific neurotoxicity responses to amisulbrom.
Although the acute neurotoxicity study observed decreased brain weight,
this effect occurred only at the very high limit dose for acute
neurotoxicity testing, in only one sex, and a NOAEL was identified.
Therefore, there is no need for a developmental neurotoxicity study or
additional UFs to account for neurotoxicity.
    iii. Based on the developmental and reproductive toxicity studies
discussed in Unit III.D.2., there are no residual uncertainties with
regard to prenatal and/or postnatal toxicity.
    iv. There are no residual uncertainties identified in the exposure
databases. The dietary food exposure assessments were performed based
on 100% CT and tolerance-level residues. Since there are no currently
registered or proposed uses of amisulbrom in the United States and
adequate food residue data are available, these assessments will not
underestimate the exposure and risks posed by amisulbrom.

E. Aggregate Risks and Determination of Safety

    EPA determines whether acute and chronic dietary pesticide
exposures are safe by comparing aggregate exposure estimates to the
acute PAD (aPAD) and chronic PAD (cPAD). For linear cancer risks, EPA
calculates the lifetime probability of acquiring cancer given the
estimated aggregate exposure. Short-, intermediate-, and chronic-term
risks are evaluated by comparing the estimated aggregate food, water,
and residential exposure to the appropriate PODs to ensure that an
adequate MOE exists. Since the subject tolerances are for residues of
amisulbrom in/on imported commodities a risk assessment was conducted
for exposure to amisulbrom from food only, as there are no drinking
water or residential exposures associated with imported grapes and
tomatoes. The acute and the chronic dietary risk estimates from food
are not of concern for the general population or any other population
subgroup. Exposures were equivalent to < 1% aPAD and < 1% cPAD for all
population subgroups. As discussed in Unit III.C.1.iii, EPA concluded
that regulation based on the chronic reference dose will be protective
for both chronic and carcinogenic risks. As noted in this unit there
are no chronic risks of concern.
    Based on these risk assessments, EPA concludes that there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will result to the general population
or to infants and children from aggregate exposure to amisulbrom
residues.

IV. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

    A Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer/Mass Spectrometer (LC-MS/
MS) method (NAS 490/042294) is available as an enforcement method for
the determination of amisulbrom in plant commodities. The limit of
quantitation (LOQ) of the method was 0.01 ppm for amisulbrom. This
method was adequately validated for data collection purposes and a
successful independent laboratory validation study was conducted.
Additionally, amisulbrom is amenable to analysis using FDA multi-
residue methods C and E, which are also suitable confirmatory and/or
enforcement methods.
    The method may be requested from: Chief, Analytical Chemistry
Branch, Environmental Science Center, 701 Mapes Rd., Ft. Meade, MD
20755-5350; telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; e-mail address:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
B. International Residue Limits

    In making its tolerance decisions, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S.
tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent
with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. EPA
considers the international maximum residue limits (MRLs) established
by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as required by FFDCA
section 408(b)(4). The Codex Alimentarius is a joint U.N. Food and
Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization food standards
program, and it is recognized as an international food safety
standards-setting organization in trade agreements to which the United
States is a party. EPA may establish a tolerance that is different from
a Codex MRL; however, FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that EPA explain
the reasons for departing from the Codex level. The Codex has not
established a MRL for amisulbrom.

V. Conclusion

    Therefore, tolerances are established for residues of amisulbrom,
3-[(3-bromo-6-fluoro-2-methyl-1H-indole-1-yl)sulfonyl]-N,N-dimethyl-1H-
1,2,4-triazole-1-sulfonamide, in or on grape at 0.40 ppm; grape, raisin
at 1.0 ppm; tomato at 0.50 ppm; and tomato, paste at 1.2 ppm.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This final rule establishes tolerances under section 408(d) of
FFDCA in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from
review under Executive Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and
Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this final rule has been
exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this final rule is
not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled Actions Concerning
Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or
Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled
Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks
(62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This final rule does not contain any
information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., nor does it require any
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis
of a petition under section 408(d) of FFDCA, such as the tolerance in
this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.) do not apply.
    This final rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food
handlers, and food retailers, not States or tribes, nor does this
action alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions
of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. As such, the Agency has determined that
this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or
tribal governments, on the relationship between the national government
and the States or tribal governments, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between
the Federal Government and Indian tribes. Thus, the Agency has
determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR
43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled
Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this final rule. In addition,
this final rule does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any
unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104-4).
    This action does not involve any technical standards that would
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272
note).

VII. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of this final rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

BILLING CODE 6560-50-P


ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY OF HEXACHLOROBENZENE ( HCB) 3/ 4/ 05 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Hexachlorobenzene ( HCB) is a stable and highly persistent molecule and does not hydrolyze in aqueous medium and is likely to become immobile in soils. It has large sorption partition coefficients. Aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation half lives are long and therefore the main route of dissipation would possibly be through sorption to soils in the terrestrial settings and to sediment organic and inorganic particulate matter in aqueous medium. Because K OC is high it has a tendency to bind strongly with soil particles and therefore less mobile, the possibility of contamination by HCB of ground water does not seem likely. Because of high binding constants with soils, HCB may possibly accumulate in benthic sediment and bioaccumulate in benthic organisms. Environmental Fate and Effects Division ( EFED) has determined, based on monitoring data, it is unlikely that HCB concentration in surface water would exceed 10 ppt ( 0.01 µ g/ L). 1 Environmental Fate Assessment In 1979 the Agency issued a document on Water Related Environmental Fate of 129 Priority Pollutants, Volumes I & II 2. Volume II discussed the fate of HCB in the environment. In the absence of experimental/ measured data on most of the fate studies ( hydrolysis, photolysis, soil aquatic metabolism etc.), a full environmental fate assessment could not be carried out. The document recognized a few important characteristics of HCB and some conclusions were drawn. Some of the conclusions drawn were:

" Hexachlorobenzene is a very persistent molecule and has a high affinity for lipophilic materials. Sorption and bioaccumulation are expected to be high. It is bioaccumulative but does not appear to biomagnify through aquatic food chain. Depuration rate is high although log K OW is on the high side. HCB found in the aquatic organisms is from aqueous medium rather than dietary sources. Chemically it is inert at room temperature and in the presence of caustic alkali between 120 to 200 oC it produces pentachlorophenolate."

It should be noted that this document was produced when HCB was used as an agricultural pesticide. Subsequent to this document the Office of Pesticide Program ( OPP) has issued a number of documents which discuss the presence of HCB as an impurity in various pesticide manufacturing processes.

Some experimentally measured data are available in some environmental fate studies. Following discussion briefly outlines the measured and/ or estimated environmental fate and transport data.

1. Abiotic a. Hydrolysis:

Hexachlorobenzene is a highly polar compound HCB does not contain any hydrolyzable hydrogen, therefore hydrolysis is not likely to take place. Ellington et al. , in 19873 attempted to measured K h ( hydrolysis constant for HCB) but after 13 days of measurements at pHs : 3, 7 and 11 at 85 o C , K h was estimated to be equal to zero and hence hydrolytic half life has not been determined.

b. Photolysis:

Half life for photoxidation of HCB in air was measured to be between 156 days to 4.2 years days4. In surface waters, the photolytic half life has been estimated between 156 days to 4.2 years. However, in ground water, HCB photolytic half life has been estimated between 5.3 to 11.4 years. Photo oxidation half life of HCB has been estimated to be between 2.7 to 5.7 years. Therefore, HCB is a highly persistent molecule in aqueous systems.

2. Biotic The half life HCB in soils has been also estimated in the range of 156 days to 4.2 years. The biodegradation half life, under aerobic conditions, has been estimated in the range of 156 days to 4.2 years and under anaerobic conditions it ranges from 10.6 years to 23 years. HCB has high binding capacity with soils and hence is likely to be immobile in soils. However, due to sorption processes in soils, HCB migrates into ground water. Based on monitoring data, the Agency has recently estimated that HCB concentration in surface is not likely to exceed 10 parts per trillion ( 0.01 µ g/ L).

Log K OW of HCB has been estimated to be between 4.5 to 6.18 and hence it is likely bioaccumulative. HCB has been shown to be bioaccumulative in some aquatic organisms. In rainbow trout, the rate of bioaccumulation is 224 days. However, depuration rate is about 7 days.

J. Beck and K. E. Hansen's work5 has shown that in surface water, under aerobic conditions, biodegradation half life of HCB varied between 2.7 and 5.7 years. Under aerobic conditions but in ground water, the biodegradation half life ranges between 5.3 to 11.4 years. A soil grab sample study, under aerobic conditions showed that HCB metabolizes in the 2.7 to 5.7 years range.

Although HCB is not soluble in aqueous medium but through aqueous surface, it has a tendency to volatilize from the water column and from soil surfaces easily and quickly.

Recent experiments on fathead minnows ( Pimephales promelas) and worm ( Lumbriculus variegatus) showed that HCB partitioned more efficiently into sediment than biota. 6 It has been shown that polychlorinated chemicals have a tendency to dechlorinate ( biotransform) under anaerobic conditions. HCB goes through dechlorination only partially in the presence of biota. 7 Bioaccumulation values for some aquatic species:

Rainbow trout: > 224 days8 Subadult rainbow trout: 210 days at 4 o C 80 days at 12 o C 70 days at 18 o C 9 Worm 27 days at 8o C Depuration Rate from fish ~ 7 days10 REFERENCES 1. J. Wolfe, A Memo on Drinking Water Assessment of HCB and PCB, April 1998, DP Barocde: D243496.

Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals and
Slings

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Labor.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: OSHA is issuing technical amendments for minor corrections to
the Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals and Slings
standards.

DATES: Effective on April 15, 2019.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
    Press inquiries: Frank Meilinger, Director, OSHA Office of
Communications; telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; email:

    General and technical information: Lisa Long, Director, Office of
Engineering Safety, OSHA Directorate of Standards and Guidance;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Summary and Explanation

Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals (Sec.
1910.1119)

    Appendix A of the Process Safety Management (PSM) standard (Sec.
1910.1119) contains the ``List of Highly Hazardous Chemicals, Toxics
and Reactives.'' A typographical error was recently discovered in the
Chemical Abstract Service (``CAS'') number for the chemical ``Methyl
Vinyl Ketone.'' The published version of the standard incorrectly lists
the CAS number as ``79-84-4;'' the correct CAS number is ``78-94-4.''
The error first appears in the proposed rule of the standard (55 FR
29167, July 17, 1990). It should be noted that the incorrect CAS
number, ``79-84-4,'' is not a valid CAS number and does not represent a
different chemical. The error is that the numerals eight and nine of
the CAS number for methyl vinyl ketone were accidentally switched when
publishing the proposed rule. That error was repeated in the final rule
(57 FR 6407, Feb. 24, 1991).
    OSHA is correcting 29 CFR 1910.119 Process Safety Management of
Highly Hazardous Chemicals to correct the CAS number for methyl vinyl
ketone in Appendix A of the standard.

Slings (Sec.  1910.184)

    On June 8, 2011, OSHA updated its standards regulating slings for
general industry (Sec.  1910.184); shipyard employment (Sec. Sec.
1915.112, 1915.113, and 1915.118), and construction (Sec.  1926.251).
Modifications to these standards included removal of previous load
capacity tables (Sec.  1910.184, tables N-184-1, N-184-3 through N-184-
22; and G-1 through G-5, G-7, G-8, and G-10) and references to these
tables (Sec.  1915.112; Sec.  1915.113; and Sec.  1926.251; tables H-1
and H-3 through H-19). The updated rule now requires employers to use
slings with permanently affixed identification markings that depict the
maximum load capacity. The final rule also provides similar protection
for shackles in Sec. Sec.  1915.113 and 1926.251.
    OSHA is correcting 29 CFR 1910.184 Slings to restore two figures,
Figure N-184-4 and Figure N-184-5,that were inadvertently removed by
amendments published on June 8, 2011 (76 FR 33590; effective July 8,
2011). Figure N-184-4 shows the basic sling configurations with
vertical legs. Figure N-184-5 shows the basic sling configurations with
angled legs. Both of these figures are referenced in section (b)
definitions of the standard and should not have been removed.

II. Exemption From Notice-and-Comment Procedures

    OSHA determined that this rulemaking is not subject to the
procedures for public notice and comment specified in Section 4 of the
Administrative Procedures Act (5 U.S.C. 553), Section 6(b) of the
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 655(b)), and 29
CFR 1911.5. This rulemaking only corrects a minor typographical error
and the erroneous deletion of illustrative figures and does not affect
or change any existing rights or obligations. No stakeholder is likely
to object to these corrections. Therefore, the agency finds good cause
that public notice and comment are unnecessary within the meaning of 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), 29 U.S.C. 655(b), and 29 CFR 1911.5.

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by modifying Class E surface airspace, and
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at
Unalakleet Airport, Unalakleet, AK. Controlled airspace is necessary to
accommodate aircraft using the new RNAV (GPS) standard instrument
approach procedures at Unalakleet Airport, and would enhance the safety
and management of instrument flight rules operations at the airport.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6002 and
6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, and
effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR

71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document will be
published subsequently in this Order.
    The FAA has determined this proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
Therefore, this proposed regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since
this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, section 106, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart I, section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would modify controlled airspace at Unalakleet Airport,
Unalakleet, AK.
    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11E, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated July 21, 2020, and effective
September 15, 2020. FAA Order 7400.11E is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11E lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by amending the
Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
within a 6.3-mile (decreased from 7.2-mile) radius of Yoakum Municipal
Airport, Yoakum, TX; and updating geographic coordinates of the airport
to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    This action is the result of an airspace review due to the
decommissioning of the Yoakum NDB which provided

navigation information for the instrument procedures at this airport.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11E, dated July 21, 2020, and effective September 15,
2020, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
