DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

Petition for Exemption from the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft
Prevention Standard; BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Grant of petition for exemption.

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

SUMMARY: This document grants in full the BMW of North America, LLC's
(BMW) petition for an exemption of the MINI Countryman multi-purpose
passenger vehicle (MPV) line in accordance with 49 CFR part 543,
Exemption from the Theft Prevention Standard. This petition is granted
because the agency has determined that the antitheft device to be
placed on the line as standard equipment is likely to be as effective
in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as compliance with the
parts-marking requirements of 49 CFR part 541, Federal Motor Vehicle
Theft Prevention Standard (Theft Prevention Standard). BMW requested
confidential treatment for specific information in its petition that
the agency will address by separate letter.

DATES: The exemption granted by this notice is effective beginning with
the 2017 model year (MY).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Carlita Ballard, Office of
International

Policy, Fuel Economy and Consumer Programs, National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., West Building, Room
W43-439, Washington, DC 20590. Ms. Ballard's telephone number is (202)
366-5222. Her fax number is<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a petition dated March 25, 2016, BMW
requested an exemption from the parts-marking requirements of the Theft
Prevention Standard for the MINI Countryman MPV line beginning with MY
2017. The petition requested an exemption from parts-marking pursuant
to 49 CFR part 543, Exemption from Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard,
based on the installation of an antitheft device as standard equipment
for the entire vehicle line.
    Under 49 CFR part 543.5(a), a manufacturer may petition NHTSA to
grant an exemption for one vehicle line per model year. In its
petition, BMW provided a detailed description and diagram of the
identity, design, and location of the components of the antitheft
device for its MINI Countryman MPV line. Key features of the antitheft
device will include a key with a transponder, loop antenna (coil),
engine control unit (DME/DDE) with encoded start release input, an
electronically coded vehicle immobilizer/car access system (EWS/CAS)
control unit and a passive immobilizer. BMW stated that its MINI
Countryman MPV line will be installed with a passive vehicle
immobilizer device as standard equipment. BMW stated that the EWS
immobilizer device prevents the vehicle from being driven away under
its own engine power and also fulfills the requirements of European
vehicle insurance companies. BMW will not offer an audible or visible
alarm feature on the proposed device.
    BMW's submission is considered a complete petition as required by
49 CFR 543.7, in that it meets the general requirements contained in
Sec.  543.5 and the specific content requirements of Sec.  543.6.
    In addressing the specific content requirements of Part 543.6, BMW
provided information on the reliability and durability of its device.
To ensure reliability and durability of the device, BMW conducted tests
and believes that the device is reliable and durable because it
complied with its own specific standards and is installed on other
vehicle lines for which the agency has granted a parts-marking
exemption. Further assuring the reliability and durability of the MINI
Countryman's antitheft device, BMW stated that the vehicle's mechanical
keys are unique because they require a special key blank, cutting
machine and a unique vehicle code to allow for key duplication. BMW
further stated that the new keys will only be issued to authorized
persons and will incorporate special guide-way millings, making the
locks almost impossible to pick and the keys impossible to duplicate on
the open market.
    BMW stated that activation of its immobilizer device occurs
automatically when the engine is shut off and the vehicle key is
removed from the ignition lock cylinder. Deactivation of the device
occurs when the Start/Stop button is pressed and the vehicle starting
process begins. BMW stated that deactivation cannot be carried out with
a mechanical key, but must occur electronically. Specifically, BMW
stated that its transponder sends key data to the EWS/CAS control unit.
The correct key data must be recognized by the EWS/CAS control unit in
order for the vehicle to start. The transponder contains a chip which
is integrated in the key and powered by a battery. The transponder also
consists of a transmitter/receiver which communicates with the EWS/CAS
control unit. The EWS/CAS control unit provides the interface to the
loop antenna (coil), engine control unit and starter. The ignition and
fuel supply are only released when a correct coded release signal has
been sent by the EWS/CAS control unit to deactivate the device and
allow the vehicle to start. When the EWS/CAS control unit has sent a
correct release signal, and after the initial starting value, the
release signal becomes a rolling, ever-changing, random code that is
stored in the DME/DDE and EWS/CAS control units. The DME/DDE must
identify the correct release signal to release the ignition signal and
fuel supply.
    BMW stated that the vehicle is also equipped with a central-locking
system that can be operated to lock and unlock all doors or to unlock
only the driver's door, thereby preventing forced entry into the
vehicle through the passenger doors. The vehicle can be further secured
by locking the doors and hood using either the key lock cylinder on the
driver's door or the remote frequency remote control. BMW stated that
the frequency for the remote control constantly changes to prevent an
unauthorized person from opening the vehicle by intercepting the
signals of its remote control.
    BMW further stated that all of its vehicles are currently equipped
with antitheft devices as standard equipment, including its MINI
Countryman MPV line. BMW compared the effectiveness of its antitheft
device with devices which NHTSA has previously determined to be as
effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as would
compliance with the parts-marking requirements of Part 541.
Specifically, BMW has installed its antitheft device on its X1 (MPV and
passenger cars), X3, X4 and X5 vehicle lines, as well as its Carline 1,
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Z4, and MINI vehicle lines, all which have been granted
parts-marking exemptions by the agency. BMW asserts that theft data
have indicated a decline in theft rates for vehicle lines that have
been equipped with antitheft devices similar to that which it proposes
to install on the MINI Countryman MPV line. BMW also stated that for
MY/CY 2011, the agency's data show that theft rates for its lines are:
0.34 (1-series), 0.69 (3-series), 1.26 (5-series), 2.47 (6-series) 1.66
(7-series), 0.24 (X1), 0.68 (X3), 2.02 (Z4), and 0.32 (MINI Cooper).
Using an average of 3 MYs data (2011-2013), NHTSA's theft rates for
BMW's 1 series, 3 series, 5 series, 6 series, 7 series, X1, X3, Z4 and
MINI Cooper vehicle lines are 0.4954, 0.6581, 0.9935, 2.8054, 1.4711,
0.2356, 0.4961, 1.2843 and 0.3385 respectively, all below the median
theft rate of 3.5826.
    Based on the supporting evidence submitted by BMW, the agency
believes that the antitheft device for the BMW MINI Countryman MPV line
is likely to be as effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle
theft as compliance with the parts-marking requirements of the Theft
Prevention Standard (49 CFR part 541). The agency concludes that the
device will provide four of the five types of performance listed in
Sec.  543.6(a)(3): Promoting activation; preventing defeat or
circumvention of the device by unauthorized persons; preventing
operation of the vehicle by unauthorized entrants; and ensuring the
reliability and durability of the device.
    Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 33106 and 49 CFR 543.7(b), the agency grants
a petition for exemption from the parts-marking requirements of Part
541, either in whole or in part, if it determines that, based upon
supporting evidence, the standard equipment antitheft device is likely
to be as effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as
compliance with the parts-marking requirements of Part 541. The agency
finds that BMW has provided adequate reasons for its belief that the
antitheft device for the MINI Countryman MPV line is likely to be as
effective in reducing and deterring motor vehicle theft as compliance
with the parts-marking requirements of the Theft Prevention Standard
(49 CFR part 541).

This conclusion is based on the information BMW provided about its
device.
    For the foregoing reasons, the agency hereby grants in full BMW's
petition for exemption for the MY 2017 MINI Countryman MPV line from
the parts-marking requirements of 49 CFR part 541. The agency notes
that 49 CFR part 541, Appendix A-1, identifies those lines that are
exempted from the Theft Prevention Standard for a given MY. 49 CFR part
543.7(f) contains publication requirements incident to the disposition
of all Part 543 petitions. Advanced listing, including the release of
future product nameplates, the beginning model year for which the
petition is granted and a general description of the antitheft device
is necessary in order to notify law enforcement agencies of new vehicle
lines exempted from the parts-marking requirements of the Theft
Prevention Standard.
    If BMW decides not to use the exemption for this line, it must
formally notify the agency. If such a decision is made, the line must
be fully marked as required by 49 CFR parts 541.5 and 541.6 (marking of
major component parts and replacement parts).
    NHTSA notes that if BMW wishes in the future to modify the device
on which this exemption is based, the company may have to submit a
petition to modify the exemption. Part 543.7(d) states that a Part 543
exemption applies only to vehicles that belong to a line exempted under
this part and equipped with the antitheft device on which the line's
exemption is based. Further, Sec.  543.9(c)(2) provides for the
submission of petitions ``to modify an exemption to permit the use of
an antitheft device similar to but differing from the one specified in
that exemption.''
    The agency wishes to minimize the administrative burden that Part
543.9(c)(2) could place on exempted vehicle manufacturers and itself.
The agency did not intend Part 543 to require the submission of a
modification petition for every change to the components or design of
an antitheft device. The significance of many such changes could be de
minimis. Therefore, NHTSA suggests that if the manufacturer
contemplates making any changes the effects of which might be
characterized as de minimis, it should consult the agency before
preparing and submitting a petition to modify.

reports, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for
each community, is appropriate because of new scientific or technical
data. The FIRM, and where applicable, portions of the FIS report, have
been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through
issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Federal
Regulations. The currently effective community number is shown in the
table below and must be used for all new policies and renewals.

DATES: These flood hazard determinations will be finalized on the dates
listed in the table below and revise the FIRM panels and FIS report in
effect prior to this determination for the listed communities.
    From the date of the second publication of notification of these
changes in a newspaper of local circulation, any person has 90 days in
which to request through the community that the Deputy Associate
Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation reconsider the changes. The
flood hazard determination information may be changed during the 90-day
period.

ADDRESSES: The affected communities are listed in the table below.
Revised flood hazard information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA

Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov for comparison.
    Submit comments and/or appeals to the Chief Executive Officer of
the community as listed in the table below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The specific flood hazard determinations are
not described for each community in this notice. However, the online
location and local community map repository address where the flood
hazard determination information is available for inspection is
provided.
    Any request for reconsideration of flood hazard determinations must
be submitted to the Chief Executive Officer of the community as listed
in the table below.
    The modifications are made pursuant to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, and are in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.,
and with 44 CFR part 65.
    The FIRM and FIS report are the basis of the floodplain management
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of having in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
    These flood hazard determinations, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that are
required. They should not be construed to mean that the community must
change any existing ordinances that are more stringent in their
floodplain management requirements. The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The flood hazard
determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    The affected communities are listed in the following table. Flood
hazard determination information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online

Airworthiness Directives; Alpha Aviation Concept Limited
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2008-09-01 for
certain Alpha Aviation Concept Limited Model R2160 airplanes. This AD
results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and
correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes
the unsafe condition as a need to revise the maintenance program to
include the revised airworthiness limitations for the internal wing
structure and wing attachment inspections. We are issuing this AD to
require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective January 25, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of January 25,
2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Alpha Aviation
Concept Limited Model R2160 airplanes. That NPRM was published in the
Federal Register on September 25, 2015 (80 FR 57753), and proposed to
supersede AD 2008-09-01, Amendment 39-15481 (73 FR 21519, April 22,
2008).
    Since we issued AD 2008-09-01, Amendment 39-15481 (73 FR 21519,
April 22, 2008), Alpha Aviation Concept Limited developed a longer life
limit for the wing structure and wing attachments and transferred the
life limit information from the related service information to the
airplane maintenance manual. Subsequently, Alpha Aviation Concept
Limited discovered that the analysis that allowed the life limit
increase was incorrect and the previous life limit and inspection
provisions of the related service bulletin should be retained.
    The NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the specified
products and was based on mandatory continuing airworthiness
information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another
country. The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), which is the aviation
authority for New Zealand, has issued AD DCA/R2000/43, dated August 7,
2015 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for the specified products. The MCAI states that:

    This AD introduces a change to the airworthiness limitations for
the internal wing structure and wing attachment inspections. These
inspection intervals were increased and added to Section 3.2--
Airworthiness Limitations of the applicable Service Manual in
January 2015. Section 3.2 of the respective Service Manuals has now
been revised to revert to the original inspection intervals.

You may examine the MCAI on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2015-3956-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (80 FR 57753, September
25, 2015) or on the determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed except for
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (80 FR 57753, September 25, 2015) for correcting the unsafe
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 57753, September 25, 2015).

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Alpha Aviation Concept Limited has revised its Alpha Aviation APEX
R2000 Service Manual, S/N 001 to 378, and Alpha Aviation R2000 Service
Manual. The updated service manuals include a revision to Section 3:
Airworthiness Limitations, Time Limits, & Maintenance Inspections,
Issued August 2015, that adds periodic internal wing structure and wing
attachment inspections. These revisions to the Airworthiness
Limitations section of the applicable service manuals are reasonably
available because the interested parties have access to them through
their normal course of business or by the means identified in the
ADDRESSES section.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 9 products of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take about 3 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate
is $85 per work-hour.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S.
operators to be $2,295, or $255 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will
take about 12 work-hours and require parts costing $1,326, for a cost
of $2,346 per product. We have no way of determining the number of
products that may need these actions.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect 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.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company Turbofan
Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all General Electric Company (GE) Passport 20-17BB1A, Passport 20-
18BB1A, and Passport 20-19BB1A model turbofan engines. This proposed AD
was prompted by a report of a manufacturing quality escape that
requires a reduction to the life limit of certain high-pressure turbine
(HPT) rotor stage 1 disks. This proposed AD would require revising the
Airworthiness Limitations section (ALS) of the GE Passport 20 Line
Maintenance Manual and the operator's existing approved continuous
airworthiness maintenance program (CAMP) to incorporate a reduced life
limit for certain HPT rotor stage 1 disks. The FAA is proposing this AD
to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 13,
2022.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2021-1016; Project Identifier
AD-2021-00625-E'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Scott
Stevenson, Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, FAA, 1200 District
Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that the FAA receives
which is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the
public docket for this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA received a report from GE of a manufacturing quality escape
that identified a certain population of HPT rotor stage 1 disks that
did not meet the design specification. GE determined that machining and
inspection of the affected HPT rotor stage 1 disks was inconsistent
with the engineering drawing. Further analysis by GE determined that
the nonconformance at the forward and aft hooks of the HPT rotor stage
1 disks may cause the disks to fail prematurely and, therefore, the
life limit of the affected HPT rotor stage 1 disks require reduction.
As a result, GE decreased the life limit of the affected HPT rotor
stage 1 disks. This condition, if not addressed, could result in
uncontained disk release, damage to the engine, and damage to the
airplane.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.

Related Service Information

    The FAA reviewed GE Service Bulletin PASSPORT20-A-72-00-0116-00A-
930A-D, Issue 002, dated July 22, 2021. This service information
describes procedures for removing a certain population of HPT rotor
stage 1 disks from service and provides serial numbers of the affected
HPT rotor stage 1 disks.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require revising the ALS of the GE Passport
20 Line Maintenance Manual, GEK 112062, and the operator's existing
approved CAMP to incorporate a reduced life limit for certain HPT rotor
stage 1 disks.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 78 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

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

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order

13132. This proposed AD would not have a substantial direct effect 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.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2006-0702; FRL-8090-9]

Request for Public Comment on Proposed Stipulated Injunction
Involving Pesticides and the California Red-legged Frog

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability; request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY:  EPA is making available for comment a proposed Stipulated
Injunction that would affect aspects of the registrations of certain
pesticides and establish a series of deadlines for the Agency to make
``effects determinations'' and initiate consultation, as appropriate,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
particular interest to the Center for Biological Diversity, CropLife
America, American Forest & Paper Association, Western Plant Health
Association, Oregonians for Food and Shelter, and Syngenta Crop
Protection, Inc., other public interest groups, state regulatory
partners, other interested Federal agencies, other pesticide
registrants and pesticide users. 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. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
    ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is making available in the docket (http://www.regulations.gov) and on

EPA's Web site (http://www.epa.gov/espp/) a proposed Stipulated Injunction for

comment. The proposed Stipulated Injunction would affect aspects of the
registrations of certain pesticides and establish a series of deadlines
for the Agency to make ``effects determinations'' and initiate
consultation, as appropriate, with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS) for 66 pesticides relative to potential effects to the California
red-legged frog, a species listed as threatened under the Endangered
Species Act (ESA). EPA will evaluate all comments received during the
public comment period to determine whether all or part of the proposed
Stipulated Injunction warrants reconsideration. This proposed
Stipulated Injunction, if entered by the United States District Court
for the Northern District of California, would resolve a lawsuit
brought against EPA by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD or
plaintiff) on terms also acceptable to CropLife America, American
Forest & Paper Association, Western Plant Health Association,
Oregonians for Food and Shelter, and Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc.
(intervenors).

III. Background

    On April 2, 2002, plaintiff filed a lawsuit in the Federal District
Court for the Northern District of California alleging that EPA failed
to comply with 16 U.S.C. 1531-1544 regarding the California red-legged
frog (Center for Biological Diversity v. Stephen L. Johnson, et al.,
Civil No. CO2-1580-JSW (N.D. Cal.)). On September 19, 2005, the court
ruled that EPA was required, pursuant to section 7(a)(2) of the ESA, to
make ``effects determinations'' for 66 pesticide active ingredients and
initiate consultation with the FWS as appropriate. EPA has reached an
agreement with the plaintiff and intervenors that would establish a
schedule for EPA to make such determinations and initiate consultation
as appropriate, and would include interim injunctive measures intended
to reduce the potential exposure of the California red-legged frog to
these pesticides, while EPA satisfies its section 7(a)(2) consultation
obligations. The agreement is embodied in a proposed Stipulated
Injunction.
    The 66 pesticide active ingredients named in the lawsuit are:
Acephate; alachlor; aldicarb; atrazine; azinphos-methyl; bensulide;
bromacil; captan; carbaryl; chloropicrin; chlorothalonil; chlorpyrifos;
chlorthal-dimethyl (DCPA); 2,4-D; diazinon; 1,3-dichlorpropene;
dicofol; diflubenzuron; dimethoate; disulfoton; diuron; endosulfan;
EPTC; esfenvalerate; fenamiphos; glyphosate; hexazinone; imazapyr;
iprodione; linuron; malathion; mancozeb; maneb; metam sodium;
methamidophos; methidathion; methomyl; methoprene; methyl parathion;
metolachlor; molinate; myclobutanil; naled; norflurazon; oryzalin;
oxamyl; oxydemeton-methyl; oxyfluoren; paraquat dichloride;
pendimethalin; permethrin; phorate; phosmet; prometryn; propanil;
propargite; propyzamide (pronamide); rotenone; simazine; SSS-tributyl
phosphororithiolate (DEF or Tribufos); strychnine; thiobencarb;
triclopyr; trifluralin; vinclozolin; and ziram.
    In addition, the Stipulated Injunction would (with some exceptions)
enjoin, vacate, and set aside EPA's authorization of certain
pesticides' uses in all areas described by the FWS as aquatic breeding,
non-breeding aquatic, and upland critical habitat for the California
red-legged frog, in certain other aquatic features and upland

habitats occupied by the California red-legged frog, and in adjoining
buffer zones. The injunctive relief, vacatur, and setting aside of
EPA's authorizations would terminate for a particular use of a
pesticide upon the completion of EPA's ESA section 7(a)(2) consultation
obligations (including a ``no effect'' determination) for the
particular use of the pesticide. The Stipulated Injunction would also
require EPA to develop and distribute a brochure regarding the
California red-legged frog, frogs generally and environmental
contaminants, and certain aspects of the Stipulated Injunction.
    Beginning today, EPA is opening a 15-day comment period on the
proposed Stipulated Injunction. EPA will use the comments to determine
whether all or part of the proposed Stipulated Injunction warrants
reconsideration. If EPA determines that any part of the proposed
Stipulated Injunction merits reconsideration, EPA will provide the
plaintiff with a written request for further negotiations and the
proposed Stipulated Injunction shall not be entered with the Court
unless the parties can reach agreement on needed changes. If EPA
determines that the proposed Stipulated Injunction does not need to be
reconsidered, the terms of the proposed Stipulated Injunction shall
become effective upon entry by the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California. Once the Stipulated Injunction is
entered by the U.S. District Court, EPA will post on its Web site
athttp://www.epa.gov/pesticides a notice indicating the Stipulated Injunction

has been so entered.
