Page 1 of 6 UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON, D. C. 20460 OFFICE OF PREVENTION, PESTICIDES AND TOXIC SUBSTANCES April 29, 2004 Memorandum SUBJECT: Review of a Literature Study ( Garrod et al 2000) to Determine Unit Exposures for Do It Yourself ( DIY) Antifoulant Painting of Recreational Boat Hulls ( Brush/ Roller) and Wood Preservative Painting of Home Structures ( Brush). DP Barcode 301375.

FROM: Tim Leighton, Environmental Scientist Antimicrobials Division THRU: Winston Dang, Senior Scientist Doreen Aviado, Biologist Antimicrobials Division TO: Debbie Smegal, Toxicologist Antimicrobials Division Attached is a review of a study conducted through the UK's Health Safety Executive by Garrod et al 2000. Potential Exposure of Amateurs ( Consumers) through Painting Wood Preservative and Antifoulant Preparations. Ann. Occup. Hyg., Vol. 44, No. 6, pp. 421 426.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Garrod et al ( 2000) study was submitted by the registrant during the 30 day error comment period of the Reregistration Eligibility Decision ( RED) process for Zinc Omadine   ( i. e., zinc pyrithione). The Garrod et al ( 2000) study was reviewed by the Antimicrobials Division ( AD) to provide dermal and inhalation unit exposures ( UEs) appropriate for use in developing antifoulant and wood preservative outdoor painting exposure scenarios for amateur ( consumer) applicators. The antifoulant paint in this study was applied using a paint brush and roller to boat hulls of recreational craft stored on sling/ cradle/ trailers. The wood preservative was applied by paint brush to wood surfaces on various structures around the home ( i. e., shed/ trellis/ house/ fence). The scenarios monitored in this study ( i. e., antifoulant applications via brush/ roller and wood preservative brush on treatments) are more representative for do ityourself ( DIY) painters than the surrogate data available in the Pesticide Handlers Exposure Database ( PHED). The surrogate data in PHED are based on an indoor painting scenario where latex paint containing a fungicide is applied to interior bathroom walls with a brush. However, only the air concentration data are available from Garrod et al ( 2000). Those estimates are Page 2 of 6 presented below in Tables 1 and 2. The dermal portion of the study monitored mostly exposure on the outside of clothing and only one patch was used underneath clothing. New studies measuring both dermal and inhalation exposures are recommended.

Introduction A total of 25 test subjects were monitored for dermal and inhalation exposure to selected wood preservative and antifoulant pesticides as either dichlofluanid, zinc octoate, copper, or acypetacs zinc. Test subjects in 10 replicates were monitored while mixing/ loading/ applying antifoulant paint by hand held brush and roller ( both techniques during the same replicate) to boat hulls of recreational craft stored on slings, cradles, and trailers. Although the length of the boats were not reported, the area of the hull painted is provided. It is estimated, based on the area painted, that the boats are in the ± 25 ft range. In addition, test subjects ( 15 replicates) were also monitored while applying wood preservatives to home structures ( i. e., fence, shed, house) using a hand held paint brush. The specific type of paint ( e. g., was it a paint or a stain, solvent content unknown) applied to the home structures was not reported. Preparation and cleanup from these activities were not monitored.

The dermal samples were monitored using 6 patches on the outside of the test subject's clothing and one patch on the inside of the clothing. The location of the patches were not reported. However, the article did state that "... the method as described in Llewellyn et al ( 1996) was used." Presumably this reference indicates the location of the patches on the body. Nonetheless, only outside dermal exposure measurements are available in this study. One inside patch is indeterminate for inside clothing dermal exposure estimates. Cotton gloves were worn as dosimeters. Some test subjects wore work gloves over these dosimeters. Socks were used as dosimeters to measure foot exposure as well.

Inhalation exposure was monitored using personal air pumps in the test subject's breathing zone. The pumps for the wood preservative replicates were run at 0.5 L/ min "... through a glass fibre GF/ A filter held in a combination open face sampling head with a standard 45 mg " Tenax ® " tube". The replicates in the boat hull painting scenarios used pumps run at 2 L/ min with "... cellulose acetate filters held in a seven hole head mounted within 30 cm of the breathing zone."

QA/ QC samples consisted of laboratory recoveries. The laboratory recovery results were mostly in the 90 percent range with the zinc octoate ranging from 69 to 89 percent. One replicate using the zinc octoate was corrected for recovery. No other replicates were corrected. The article did not mention field fortifications or storage stability samples ( nor did it discuss shipment or storage of field samples). Limits of detection ( LOD) were reported for all four chemicals for all matrices.

Sampling Results The results of the air sampling measurements are presented in Tables 1 ( antifoulant paint) and 2 ( wood preservative). These data are taken from Table 2 of Garrod et al ( 2000). Garrod's Page 3 of 6 table reports individual replicates including active ingredient ( grams/ L or % w/ w), volume of product used, surface area painted ( m2), replicate duration, air concentration ( mg/ m3), outside dermal exposure ( mg), percent clothing penetration, hand exposure ( mg), and foot exposure ( mg). In an effort to determine the best variable to normalize the unit exposures, and ultimately recommend a surrogate normalized air concentration for these painting scenarios, correlation coefficients were calculated using the " correl" function in Excel. The correlations for the air concentrations ( mg/ m3/ replicate) versus percent ai in the paint formulation, total lbs ai applied, area painted, and sampling times are presented in Table 3.

The dermal portion of the study is not presented in this review because outside dosimetry measurements were collected ( using 6 patches   EPA suggests 10 patches) and patch locations on the body were not presented. Only one inside clothing dosimeter was worn and the placement of that patch on the body was not reported). In addition, no field and/ or storage stability samples were reported ( although the compounds are believed to be stable). It is unclear from the results table in Garrod et al ( 2000) if the " dermal" exposure values include the results of the hands and feet ( i. e., hands and feet are reported separately). Finally, the percent penetration is only based on one inside patch and is considered incomplete to estimate penetration for total dermal exposure.

Conclusions This study is the only data available to EPA to estimate Do It Yourself ( DIY) boat hull painting with an antifoulant paint. It is also the only outdoor paint brush study available for painting ( PHED paint brush study is an interior bathroom latex paint study). The results of the inhalation portion of the study have been presented above because the sampling methodology is deemed acceptable. Nonetheless, there are uncertainties associated with these values including: ( 1) no field and/ or storage stability samples were generated; ( 2) storage and shipment of samples were not discussed; ( 3) the size ( length) of the boat was not presented; and ( 4) the formulation of the paint applied was not reported ( e. g., solvents, type and percent). The correlation coefficients presented in Table 3 above do not indicate a strong correlation with the study parameters.

The dermal exposure results are not presented in this review because of the study design ( e. g., outside dosimetry, 6 patches   EPA suggests 10 patches, and patch location not presented; only one inside clothing patch). In addition, it is unclear from the results table presented in Garrod et al ( 2000) if the dermal exposure column is for the torso only or if the data in this column also includes the exposures of the hands and feet. The confusion results from the fact that the exposures for the hands and feet are reported in separate columns. Finally ( and most importantly), the percent clothing penetration is only based on one inside patch and is considered incomplete to estimate penetration.

Recommendations The results of the air sampling for the DIY antifoulant boat hull painting and wood preservative painting ( homeowners) can be used to estimate screening level inhalation exposure/ risk. However, it is recommended that new studies be designed with various products and more replicates to determine if there is a correlation between painting boat hulls and/ or home structures with a wood perservative and exposure ( both dermal and inhalation). If exposure/ risk Page 6 of 6 assessors need the data from this study to develop screening level inhalation assessments, the individual data points are available in Tables 1 and 2 above to normalize the air concentrations as deemed necessary. UEs are presented in this review normalized by the percent active ingredient applied ( weak correlation). For example, if the air concentration data are required for a surrogate product containing 10 percent active ingredient, a UE reported in units of mg/ m3/% ai is multiplied by 10 ( not 0.1). When using these data as a surrogate, it is important to compare the percent ai used in this study versus the product being assessed. The antifoulant paints in this study ranged from 7 to 30 percent and the wood preservatives ranged from 0.2 to 8 percent. Clarification of the dermal exposures are not worth pursuing at this time because they represent exposure to the outside of clothing.

I. Regulatory History

    We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
rule. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A) the Coast Guard finds this rule is
exempt from notice and comment rulemaking requirements because these
changes involve rules of agency organization, procedure, or practice.
In addition, the Coast Guard finds notice and comment procedures are
unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as this rule consists only of
corrections and editorial, organizational, and conforming amendments
and these changes will have no substantive effect on the public. Under
5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that, for the same reasons,
good cause exists for making this rule effective upon publication in
the Federal Register.

II. Background

    Each year, the printed edition of Title 33 of the Code of Federal
Regulations is recodified on July 1. This rule, which becomes effective
June 2, 2011, makes technical and editorial corrections throughout
Title 33. This rule does not create any substantive requirements.

III. Basis and Purpose

    This rule amends 33 CFR part 1 to reflect changes in agency
organization by removing Sec.  1.01-60(a)(1)(ii) and combining Sec.
1.01-60(a)(1)(i) with Sec.  1.01-60(a)(1). Because the Coast Guard is
no longer a component of the Department of Transportation (DOT), DOT
Order 5610.1C (Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts) no
longer applies.
    This rule revises 33 CFR part 27. The Coast Guard is adjusting
fines and other civil monetary penalties to reflect the impact of
inflation. These adjustments are made in accordance with the Federal
Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990, as amended by the
Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, and implement the provisions
of these statutes. These statutes require the Coast Guard to
periodically adjust the civil monetary penalties for inflation by a
method that is specifically prescribed within these statutes and which
allows no discretion. The statutory method specifies the inflation
measure to be used, the method for the calculation of the inflation
adjustment, and the method for the numerical rounding of the results.
The last inflation adjustments were made in 2010.
    The changes in Civil Penalties for calendar year 2011 are based on
the change in CPI-U from June 2009 to June 2010. The recorded change in
CPI-U during that period was 1.05%. Because of the small change in CPI-
U and the required rules for rounding, there was no change to any of
the maximum penalty amounts from the previous adjustment.
    This rule amends Sec.  115.05 by replacing the term ``builder''
with the term ``applicant'' to clarify the Coast Guard's intent and
make the affected provision consistent with other provisions in this
section and other sections of part 115. This rule also corrects
grammatical errors and details established requirements regarding the
information needed on the plan sheets that accompany a bridge permit
request. This rule removes Sec.  115.50(d) because the information it
provides is already explained throughout the section.
    This rule amends 33 CFR part 117 to correct the names of the S14
Bridge and the S1 Bridge and to provide an updated phone number to the
Kansas City Southern automated bridge. Also ``Pelican Island Causeway''
is removed from the title of Sec.  117.977 and the section is
redesignated to follow the alphabetical order of state waterways set
out in this subpart.
    This rule amends parts 135, 140, 148, and 150 of Title 33 with an
organizational name change from the Minerals Management Service (MMS)
to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Regulation and Enforcement
(BOEMRE).
    This rule amends paragraph 161.15(a) to correct a typographical
error that erroneously omitted the words ``within a''. The correction
to the section is not substantive and does not impose any new
requirement, but clarifies the meaning of this portion of part 161.
    This rule amends 33 CFR part 164 to remove LORAN C from the list of
options for vessel electronic position fixing devices. Removing LORAN C
from 33 CFR part 164 will have no substantive effect on the public
because the use of LORAN C has not been supported by the Coast Guard
since February 2010, and this section is no longer applicable.

    This rule amends Title 33 to correct latitude/longitude coordinates
of the Galveston Entrance Anchorage Areas in part 166 and the
Chesapeake Bay: Eastern approach in part 167.
    This rule amends Title 33 to update internal Coast Guard office
designations as well as certain personnel titles. Changes in personnel
titles included in this rule are only technical revisions reflecting
changes in agency procedure and organization, and do not indicate new
authorities.
    This rule amends Title 33 to update various physical addresses for
Coast Guard offices as well as those offices' contact information.
    Finally, this rule corrects non-substantive, typographical errors
throughout Title 33.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section
6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not
reviewed it under that Order. Because this rule involves non-
substantive changes and internal agency practices and procedures, it
will not impose any additional costs on the public.

B. Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities. The term ``small entities''
comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are
independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields,
and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
    We estimate that the cost of this rule is minimal and should have
little or no impact on small entities because the provisions of this
rule are technical and non-substantive, and will have no substantive
effect on the public and will impose no additional costs. Therefore,
the Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this final rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.

C. Collection of Information

    This rule calls for no new collection of information under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

D. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under
that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for
federalism.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or Tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

G. Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminates ambiguity, and reduces burden.

H. Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

I. Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have Tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian Tribes, 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.

J. Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects
under Executive Order 13211.

K. Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies.
    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

L. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded
that this action is one of a category of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. This rule is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2,
figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(a) of the Instruction. This rule involves
regulations which are editorial, procedural, such as those updating
addresses or establishing application procedures. An environmental
analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are

available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

  The recorded change in CPI-U during that period was 1.05%. Because of
  the small change in CPI-U and the required rules for rounding, there
  was no change to any of the maximum penalty amounts from the previous
  adjustment.

  adjustments.

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket Nos. CP19-198-000]

Mississippi Hub, LLC; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on April 22, 2019, Mississippi Hub, LLC (MS Hub),
10375 Richmond Ave., Suite 1900, Houston, TX 77042, filed in Docket No.
CP19-198-000, an application pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural
Gas Act and Part 157 of the Commission's regulations to continue to
own, operate and maintain an existing 4,735 horsepower gas-driven
compressor unit at MS Hub's existing storage terminal in Simpson
County, Mississippi. The applicant states that ArcLight Energy Partners
Fund VI, L.P. (ArcLight) acquired all of the ownership interests in MS
Hub from Sempra Energy after which a post-acquisition regulatory audit
was conducted. The applicant states that the Certificate authorization
for Gas Compressor 4, which the applicant claims was placed in service
in 2012 and continues to operate, may have been inadvertently vacated
by the prior owner, all as more fully set forth in the application,
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. The
filing may also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the
eLibrary link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits
in the docket number field to access the document. For assistance,
contact FERC at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call toll-free, (866)
208-3676 or TTY,<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to Todd
Cash, Enstor Gas, LLC, 10375 Richmond Ave., Suite 1900, Houston, TX
77042,<PHONE_NUMBER><EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Lisa M. Tonery,
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, 51 West 52nd Street, New York, N.Y.
10019,<PHONE_NUMBER><EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and state agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 3 copies of filings made with the Commission and must provide a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list and will be
notified of any meetings associated with the Commission's environmental
review process. Environmental commentors will not be required to serve
copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party
commentors will not receive copies of all documents filed by other
parties or issued by the Commission and will not have the right to seek
court review of the Commission's final order.
    As of the February 27, 2018 date of the Commission's order in
Docket No. CP16-4-001, the Commission will apply its revised practice
concerning out-of-time motions to intervene in any new Natural Gas Act
section 3 or section 7 proceeding.\1\ Persons desiring to become a
party to a certificate proceeding are to intervene in a timely manner.
If seeking to intervene out-of-time, the movant is required to ``show
good cause why the time limitation should be waived, and should provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d)(1) of
the Commission's Rules and Regulations.\2\

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

    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the eFiling link at
http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically

should submit an original and 3 copies of the protest or intervention
to the Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20426.
