40 CFR Part 180

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0123; FRL-8077-6]

Inorganic Bromide; Tolerance Actions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is revoking twelve specific inorganic bromide tolerances
because they are no longer needed. These twelve tolerances are for
residues of inorganic bromide from pre-plant (non-food) use in or on
raw agricultural commodities grown in soil fumigated with combinations
of chloropicrin, methyl bromide, and propargyl bromide. Although methyl
bromide is used as an agricultural pesticide, the Agency considers its
application as a soil fumigant to be a non-food use because it is
quickly degraded or metabolized in the soil, and subsequently
incorporated into natural plant constituents. Methyl bromide is also
emitted to the atmosphere. Residues of the parent compound are not
likely to be found in foods as a result of prior treatment of fields.
While residues of inorganic bromide may be present, these residues are
indistinguishable from background because of inorganic bromide's
ubiquity in the environment. Consequently, EPA is revoking them because
no tolerances are needed for those non-food uses. Furthermore, since
methyl bromide, when applied as a pre-plant soil fumigant is a non-food
use, the Agency is adding it as an entry to 40 CFR 180.2020 noting the
non-food use determination.

DATES: This regulation is effective August 9, 2006. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before October 10, 2006,
and must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40
CFR part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under docket
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0123. All documents in the
docket are listed in the index for the docket. Although listed in the
index, some information is not publicly available, e.g., Confidential

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    In the Federal Register of May 31, 2006 (71 FR 30845) (FRL-8061-7),
EPA issued a proposed rule to revoke twelve specific tolerances for
residues of inorganic bromide. The proposal provided a 60-day comment
period.
    In response to the proposal published in the Federal Register of
May 31, 2006 (71 FR 30845), EPA received no comments during the 60-day
public comment period.
    These twelve tolerances are for residues of inorganic bromide from
pre-plant use in or on raw agricultural commodities grown in soil
fumigated with combinations of chloropicrin, methyl bromide, and
propargyl bromide. There are no active registrations for the use of
propargyl bromide. Although methyl bromide is used as an agricultural
pesticide, the Agency considers its application as a soil fumigant to
be a non-food use because it is quickly degraded or metabolized in the
soil, and subsequently incorporated into natural plant constituents.
Residues of the parent compound are not likely to be found in foods as
a result of prior soil fumigation treatment of fields and are
indistinguishable from background because of inorganic bromide's
ubiquity in the environment. Accordingly, because the tolerances are no
longer needed, EPA is revoking the tolerances in 40 CFR 180.199(a) for
residues of inorganic bromides in or on broccoli, cauliflower,
eggplants, muskmelons, peppers, pineapples, strawberries, and tomatoes;
in 40 CFR 180.199(b) in or on asparagus, lettuce, and onions (dry
bulb); and in 40 CFR 180.199(c) in or on ginger, roots.
    Furthermore, because methyl bromide application as a pre-plant soil
fumigant is a non-food use, EPA is adding methyl bromide as an entry to
40 CFR 180.2020 noting the non-food use determination for all pre-plant
soil uses.
    Currently, there are CODEX Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for
bromide ion on broccoli, head lettuce, sweet peppers, strawberry, and
tomato. However, as noted above, residues of bromide ion may be
expected to occur in both domestic and imported foods as a result of
inorganic bromide's ubiquity in the environment and residue levels
resulting from use of methyl bromide are expected to be
indistinguishable from those background, or naturally occurring levels.
Thus, no international trade issues due to absence bromide ion
tolerances in the U.S. are expected as a result of this final action.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    As a general matter, EPA believes that retention of tolerances not
needed to cover any residues on food may result in unnecessary
restriction on trade of pesticides and foods. In an assessment of
aggregate exposure to a pesticide, EPA must consider potential
contributions to such exposure from all tolerances. If the aggregate
risk is such that the tolerances in aggregate are not safe, then every
one of these tolerances is potentially vulnerable to revocation.
Furthermore, if unneeded tolerances are included in the aggregate
assessment, the estimated exposure to the pesticide would be inflated.
Consequently, it may be more difficult for others to obtain needed
tolerances or to register needed new uses. To avoid potential trade
restrictions, the Agency believes it is appropriate to revoke
tolerances that are no longer needed.

C. When Do These Actions Become Effective?

    These actions become effective on the date of publication of this
final rule in the Federal Register because application of pre-plant
uses in or on raw agricultural commodities grown in soil fumigated with
combinations of chloropicrin, methyl bromide, and propargyl bromide
have been determined by EPA to be a non-food use and no tolerances are
needed for those non-food uses.

D. What is the Contribution to Tolerance Reassessment?

    By law, EPA is required by August 3, 2006 to reassess the
tolerances in existence on August 2, 1996. As of July 31, 2006, EPA has
reassessed over 9,700 tolerances. This document revokes a total of 12
tolerances which have been previously considered to be reassessed and
counted toward the August, 2006 review deadline of FFDCA section
408(q), as amended by FQPA in 1996.

III. Are There Any International Trade Issues Raised by this Final
Action?

    No. As stated previously there are no international trade issues
raised by this final action. EPA is working to ensure that the U.S.
tolerance reassessment program under FQPA does not disrupt
international trade. EPA considers Codex Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs)
in setting U.S. tolerances and in reassessing them. MRLs are
established by the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues, a committee
within the Codex Alimentarius Commission, an international organization
formed to promote the coordination of international food standards.
When possible, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S. tolerances with Codex MRLs.
EPA may establish a tolerance that is different from a Codex MRL;
however, FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that EPA explain in a Federal
Register document the reasons for departing from the Codex level. EPA's
effort to harmonize with Codex MRLs is summarized in the tolerance
reassessment section of individual REDs. The U.S. EPA has developed
guidance concerning submissions for import tolerance support (65 FR
35069, June 1, 2000) (FRL-6559-3). This guidance will be made available
to interested persons. Electronic copies are available on the internet
at http://www.epa.gov. On the Home Page select ``Laws and

Regulations,'' then select ``Regulations and Proposed Rules'' and then
look up the entry for this document under ``Federal Register--
Environmental Documents.'' You can also go directly to the ``Federal
Register'' listings at http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    In this final rule, EPA revokes specific tolerances established
under FFDCA section 408. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
exempted this type of action (i.e., a tolerance revocation for which
extraordinary circumstances do not exist) from review under Executive
Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993). Because this rule has been exempted from review under
Executive Order 12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not
subject to Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355,
May 22, 2001). 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., or impose any

enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law
104-4). Nor does it require any special considerations as required by
Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address
Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income
Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994); or OMB review or any other
Agency action under Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of
Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks(62 FR 19885,
April 23, 1997). 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 104-13, section 12(d)
(15 U.S.C. 272 note). Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the Agency previously assessed whether
revocations of tolerances might significantly impact a substantial
number of small entities and concluded that, as a general matter, these
actions do not impose a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. This analysis was published on December 17,
1997 (62 FR 66020), and was provided to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy
of the Small Business Administration. Taking into account this
analysis, and the fact that there is no reasonable expectation that
residues of the pesticides listed in this rule will be found on the
commodities discussed in this rule (so that the lack of the tolerance
could not prevent sale of the commodity), the Agency hereby certifies
that this final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. In a memorandum dated May 25,
2001, EPA determined that eight conditions must all be satisfied in
order for an import tolerance or tolerance exemption revocation to
adversely affect a significant number of small entity importers, and
that there is a negligible joint probability of all eight conditions
holding simultaneously with respect to any particular revocation. (This
Agency document is available in the docket of this final rule).
Furthermore, for the pesticides named in this final rule, the Agency
knows of no extraordinary circumstances that exist as to the present
revocations that would change EPA's previous analysis. In addition, the
Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial
direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified
in Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by State and local
officials in the development of regulatory policies that have
federalism implications.'' ``Policies that have federalism
implications'' is defined in the Executive order to include regulations
that have ``substantial direct effects on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government.'' This final rule directly regulates growers, food
processors, food handlers and food retailers, not States. This action
does not alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions
of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. For these same reasons, the Agency has
determined that this rule does not have any ``tribal implications'' as
described in Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 6,
2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by tribal officials in
the development of regulatory policies that have tribal implications.''
``Policies that have tribal implications'' is defined in the Executive
order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct effects on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and the Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.''
This rule will not have substantial direct effects on tribal
governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, as specified in
Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to
this rule.

V. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
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).

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

[Docket No. FMCSA-2017-0045]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Extension of a
Currently-Approved Information Collection Request: Revocation of
Authority Granted

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FMCSA
announces its plan to submit the Information Collection Request (ICR)
described below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review
and approval. FMCSA requests approval to extend an ICR titled,
``Request Extension for Revocation of Authority Granted.'' This
information collection supports the DOT strategic goal of safety by
enabling registrants to voluntarily request revocation of operating
authority, or some part of that authority. A completed Form OCE-46 is
filed with FMCSA by the registrant for requesting that all, or a part,
of its operating authority be revoked. The information contained on the
form is used by FMCSA in deciding on the revocation request. The use of
Form OCE-46 has proven to be an easy and effective means by which a
registrant can request revocation of its operating authority. No
comments were received in response to the 60-day notice published in
the Federal Register on March 22, 2017 (82 FR 14792).

DATES: Please send your comments by August 24, 2017. OMB must receive
your comments by this date to act quickly on the ICR.

ADDRESSES: All comments should reference Federal Docket Management
System (FDMS) Docket Number FMCSA-2017-0045. Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on the proposed information
collection to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office
of Management and Budget. Comments should be addressed to the attention
of the Desk Officer, Department of Transportation/Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration, and sent via electronic mail to
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or faxed to<PHONE_NUMBER>, or mailed to
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20503.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Request for Extension for Revocation of Authority Granted.
    OMB Control Number: 2126-0018.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: For-hire motor carriers or regulated commodities,
surface freight forwarders, and property brokers.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,501.
    Estimated Time per Response: 0.25 hours.
    Expiration Date: July 31, 2017.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 875 hours [3,501 responses x 0.25
hour = 875].

Background

    FMCSA registers for-hire motor carriers of regulated commodities
under 49 U.S.C. 13902, surface freight forwarders under 49 U.S.C.
13903, and property brokers under 49 U.S.C. 13904. Each registration is
effective from the date specified under 49 U.S.C. 13905(c). Subsection
(d) of 49 U.S.C. 13905 also provides that on application of the
registrant, the Secretary may amend or revoke a registration, and hence
the registrant's operating authority. Form OCE-46 allows registrants to
apply voluntarily for revocation of their operating authority or parts
thereof. If the registrant fails to maintain evidence of the required
level of insurance coverage on file with FMCSA, its

operating authority will be revoked involuntarily. Although the effect
of both types of revocation is the same, some carriers prefer to
request voluntary revocation. For various business reasons, a
registrant may request revocation of some part, but not all, of its
operating authority.
    This information collection supports the DOT strategic goal of
safety by enabling registrants to voluntarily request revocation of
operating authority, or some part of that authority. A completed Form
OCE-46 is filed with FMCSA by the registrant for requesting that all,
or a part, of its operating authority be revoked. The information
contained on the form is used by FMCSA in deciding on the revocation
request. The use of Form OCE-46 has proven to be an easy and effective
means by which a registrant can request revocation of its operating
authority.
    Form OCE-46 is filed by registrants on a voluntary, and for the
most part, one-time basis. It calls for a very limited amount of
information to identify the registrant and the scope of its request.
Thus, the information collection itself has not been automated,
although the information collected is ultimately entered into an
automated database. The burden associated with this ICR is being
revised due to an anticipated increase in the estimated number of
annual filings from 3,000 to 3,501 and to account for the corresponding
cost of notarizing and mailing Form OCE-46.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed
collection is necessary for FMCSA to perform its functions; (2) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways for FMCSA to enhance the
quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information.

2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    FDA is announcing the availability of a document entitled
``Guidance for FDA Reviewers and Sponsors: Content and Review of
Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control (CMC) Information for Human
Somatic Cell Therapy Investigational New Drug Applications (INDs),''
dated April 2008. The guidance document provides to sponsors of a human
somatic cell therapy IND recommendations on the CMC information to
include in an original IND. In addition, the guidance provides
instructions to FDA reviewers about information to record and assess as
part of the IND review. This guidance will help sponsors and FDA
reviewers to assess, given the phase of the investigation, whether
sufficient information is provided to assure the proper identification,
quality, purity, and potency of the investigational product.
    In the Federal Register of August 18, 2003 (68 FR 49488), FDA
announced the availability of the draft guidance entitled ``Draft
Guidance for Reviewers: Instructions and Template for Chemistry,
Manufacturing, and Control Reviewers of Human Somatic Cell Therapy
Investigational New Drug Applications'' dated August 2003. FDA received
several comments on the draft guidance and FDA considered those
comments when finalizing the guidance. In addition, we revised the
guidance to clarify its applicability for sponsors. The guidance
announced in this notice finalizes the draft guidance dated August
2003.
    The guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents FDA's
current thinking on this topic. It does not create or confer any rights
for or on any person and does not operate to bind FDA or the public. An
alternative approach may be

used if such approach satisfies the requirements of the applicable
statutes and regulations.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This guidance refers to previously approved collections of
information found in FDA regulations. These collections of information
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The
collections of information in 21 CFR 211.100, 211.160, and 211.165(e)
have been approved under OMB Control No. 0910-0139; 21 CFR 312.23(a)
and (b), 312.32(c), and Form FDA 1571 have been approved under OMB
Control No. 0910-0014; and 21 CFR part 1271 has been approved under OMB
Control No. 0910-0559.

III. Comments

    Interested persons may, at any time, submit to the Division of
Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) written or electronic comments
regarding the guidance. Submit a single copy of electronic comments or
two paper copies of any mailed comments, except that individuals may

Management Web site transitioned to the Federal Dockets Management
System (FDMS). FDMS is a Government-wide, electronic docket management
system. Electronic comments or submissions will be accepted by FDA
through FDMS only.
