Memorandum

Subject: 	Letter from Olympia J. Snowe, U.S. Senator

From:		Crystal Rodgers

To:		Docket for the Ground Water Rule

Date:		October 11, 2006

On October 20, 2000, EPA received a letter from Olympia J. Snowe, United
States Senator, writing to inform EPA of concerns raised by the Maine
Restaurant Association.  This letter included as an attachment the
comments of Richard Grotton, Executive Vice President of the Maine
Restaurant Association.  In response to this letter, J. Charles Fox,
then Assistant Administrator of EPA, wrote in response that “EPA will
consider and respond to his comments along with the other comments
received during the comment period for this proposed rule.”

EPA has fulfilled this pledge.  EPA notes that the Agency has included
in the Public Comment and Response Document for the Final Ground Water
Rule (comment response document) (USEPA, 2006) the text (i.e., the
comments) from (1) the letter from Senator Snowe to EPA, (2) the letter
from Mr. Grotton to Senator Snowe, and (3) the attachment to the letter
from Mr. Grotton to Senator Snowe.  EPA has responded to these comments.

Letters (and their attachments) in the comment response document are
organized by docket ID which allows the reader to easily locate comments
by their source or author.  The following letters and attachment have
been assigned the docket ID of I-G2.0019.

Snowe, O.J. October 20, 2000. Letter to John Reeder, Deputy Associate
Administrator.

Grotton, R. September 27, 2000.  Letter to Jennifer E. Griffith,
Legislative Assistant to Senator Olympia Snowe.

Grotton, R. September 27, 2000.  “New Ground Water Rule under the Safe
Drinking Water Act To be promulgated November 2000by [sic] the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).” Attachment to Letter
to Jennifer E. Griffith, Legislative Assistant to Senator Olympia Snowe.

EPA intends to make the comment response document available
electronically.  An electronic search for “I-G2.0019” in a standard
computer application (e.g., a PDF document viewer) will direct the
reader to every comment from the above letters.  Each comment is
directly followed by EPA’s response.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0218; FRL-8421-5]

Estimating the Drinking Water Component of a Dietary Exposure
Assessment; Science Policy, Notice of Withdrawal

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY:  EPA hereby withdraws the pesticide science policy document
entitled ``Estimating the Drinking Water Component of a Dietary
Exposure Assessment,'' that was issued in November 1999. This science
policy was developed during the implementation of the new safety
standard in section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as
amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. EPA's assessment of
exposure to residues in drinking water no longer involves performing
screening level assessments as described in this policy paper. Instead,
the Agency now routinely develops estimates of exposure to pesticides
in drinking after using the more advanced methods that EPA has
described in other science policy papers.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elizabeth Behl, Environmental Fate and
Effects Division, Office of Pesticide Programs (7507P), Environmental
Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-
0001; telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; e-mail
address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    This action is directed to the public in general. This action,
however, may be of interest to persons who produce or formulate
pesticides or who register pesticide products. Since other entities may
also be interested, the Agency has not attempted to describe all the
specific entities that may be affected by this action. If you have any
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular
entity, consult the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT.

B. How Can I Get Copies of this Document and Other Related Information?

    EPA has established a docket for this action under docket
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0218. Publicly available
docket materials are available either in the electronic docket at
http://www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in hard copy, at the
Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) Regulatory Public Docket in Rm. S-
4400, One Potomac Yard (South Bldg.), 2777 S. Crystal Dr., Arlington,
VA. The hours of operation of this Docket Facility are from 8:30 a.m.
to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The Docket
Facility telephone number is<PHONE_NUMBER>.

II. Background

    The Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA) significantly
amended the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA)
and the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). Among other
changes, FQPA established a stringent health-based standard (``a
reasonable certainty of no harm'') for pesticide residues in foods to
assure protection from unacceptable pesticide exposure and strengthened
health protections for infants and children from pesticide risks.
    During 1998 and 1999, EPA and the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) established a subcommittee of the National Advisory
Council for Environmental Policy and Technology (NACEPT), the Tolerance
Reassessment Advisory Committee (TRAC), to address FFDCA issues and
implementation. TRAC was comprised of more than 50 representatives of
affected user, producer, consumer, public health, environmental,
states, and other interested groups. The TRAC met from May 27, 1998,
through April 29, 1999.
    In order to continue the constructive discussions about FFDCA, EPA
and USDA established, under the auspices of NACEPT, the Committee to
Advise on Reassessment and Transition (CARAT). The CARAT provided a
forum for a broad spectrum of stakeholders to consult with and advise
the Agency and the Secretary of Agriculture on pest and pesticide
management transition issues related to the tolerance reassessment
process. The CARAT was intended to further the valuable work initiated
by earlier advisory committees toward the use of sound science and
greater transparency in regulatory decision-making, increase
stakeholder participation, and advise on reasonable transition
strategies that reduce risks without jeopardizing American agriculture
and farm communities.
    As a result of the 1998 and 1999 TRAC process, EPA decided that the
implementation process and related policies would benefit from
providing notice and comment on major science policy issues. The TRAC
identified nine science policy areas it believed were key to
implementation of tolerance reassessment. EPA agreed to provide one or
more documents for comment on each of the nine issues by announcing
their availability in the Federal Register. In a notice published in
the Federal Register of October 29, 1998 (63 FR 58038) (FRL-6041-5),
EPA described its intended approach. Since then, EPA has issued a
series of draft and revised documents concerning the nine science
policy issues. Publication of this notice is intended to update the
public on the status of the science paper ``Estimating the Drinking
Water Component of a Dietary Exposure Assessment.''

III. Summary: Why this Policy is No Longer Needed

    As a result of the new procedures for estimating concentrations of
pesticide residues in drinking water, this notice announces the
withdrawal of ``Estimating the Drinking Water Component of a Dietary
Exposure Assessment,'' http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/EPA-PEST/1999/
November/Day-10/6044.pdf.
    In assessing the risks of pesticide exposure, scientists frequently
use mathematical models to predict pesticide concentrations in food,
water, residential, and occupational environments. This notice pertains
to how the Agency determines pesticide risk from drinking water. (For
more information on the models the Agency uses to estimate
concentrations of pesticides in drinking water see http://www.epa.gov/
oppefed1/models/water/models4.htm). The current approach provides a
more realistic estimate of exposure through drinking water since actual
drinking water consumption data and reported body weight from the
Combined Survey of Food Intake by Individuals (CSFII) are used, rather
than the standard assumptions used in the approach discussed in
``Estimating the Drinking Water Component of a Dietary Exposure
Assessment.''

    This action is also responsive to the recommendations made by EPA's
Office of Inspector General during its review of EPA's implementation
of FQPA. In its report ``Opportunities to Improve Data Quality and
Children's Health through the FQPA'' issued January 10, 2006, http://
www.epa.gov/oig/reports/2006/20060110-2006-P-00009.pdf, the Office of
Inspector General recommended that EPA update the status of its Science
Policy issue papers. This Federal Register notice updates the public on
the status of one of the Science Policy papers which has been
superseded by other guidance.

MEMORANDUM

SUBJECT:	Meeting with Volvo

FROM:	Angela Cullen, Mechanical Engineer

TO:		Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0162

This memorandum documents a meeting held on Wednesday, March 9, 2011 between Volvo, EPA, and DOT.  The attendees included:              Volvo: Tony Greszler, Joe Schmidt, and Tim Suder       EPA: Byron Bunker, Cle Jackson, Angela Cullen, Chuck Moulis, Allen Duncan, and Houshun Zhang.       DOT: Coralie Cooper

The discussion focused on the 2011 baseline for manufacturers that choose the alternative engine standard.  Specifically, we discussed the potential for manufacturers to establish an artificially high 2011 baseline standard in order to game the alternative engine standard.  Also discussed were approaches to prevent this potential problem, such as in-use confirmatory testing.
