ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OAR-2008-0015; FRL-9159-4]

Release of Final Document Related to the Review of the National
Ambient Air Quality Standards for Carbon Monoxide

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of Availability.

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

SUMMARY: The Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) of
EPA is announcing the availability of a final document titled,
Quantitative Risk and Exposure Assessment for Carbon Monoxide (REA).
The REA describes

quantitative analyses that have been conducted as part of the review of
the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for carbon monoxide
(CO).

DATES: The REA will be available on or about May 28, 2010.

ADDRESSES: The document will be available primarily via the Internet at
the following Web site: http://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/co/s_
co_index.html.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For questions related to this
document, please contact Dr. Deirdre Murphy, Office of Air Quality
Planning and Standards (Mail code C504-06), U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, NC 27711; e-mail:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under section 108(a) of the Clean Air Act
(CAA), the Administrator identifies and lists certain pollutants which
``cause or contribute to air pollution which may reasonably be
anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.'' The EPA then issues
air quality criteria for these listed pollutants, which are commonly
referred to as ``criteria pollutants.'' The air quality criteria are to
``accurately reflect the latest scientific knowledge useful in
indicating the kind and extent of all identifiable effects on public
health or welfare which may be expected from the presence of [a]
pollutant in the ambient air, in varying quantities.'' Under section
109 of the CAA, EPA establishes primary (health-based) and secondary
(welfare-based) NAAQS for pollutants for which air quality criteria are
issued. Section 109(d) of the CAA requires periodic review and, if
appropriate, revision of existing air quality criteria. The revised air
quality criteria reflect advances in scientific knowledge on the
effects of the pollutant on public health or welfare. The EPA is also
required to periodically review and revise the NAAQS, if appropriate,
based on the revised criteria.
    Presently, EPA is reviewing the NAAQS for CO. The EPA's overall
plan and schedule for this review is presented in the Plan for Review
of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Carbon Monoxide.\1\ A
draft of this integrated review plan was released for public review and
comment in March 2008 and was the subject of a consultation with the
Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) on April 8, 2008 (73 FR
12998). Comments received from that consultation and from the public
were considered in finalizing the plan for the review.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ EPA 452R-08-005; August 2008; Available: http://www.epa.gov/
ttn/naaqs/standards/co/s_co_cr_pd.html.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As part of EPA's review of the primary (health-based) CO NAAQS, the
Agency has conducted qualitative and quantitative assessments
characterizing the health risks associated with exposure to ambient CO.
The EPA's plans for conducting these assessments, including the
proposed scope and methods of the analyses, were presented in a
planning document titled, Carbon Monoxide National Ambient Air Quality
Standards: Scope and Methods Plan for Health Risk and Exposure
Assessment (Scope and Methods Plan). This planning document was
released for public comment in April 2009 and was the subject of a
consultation with the CASAC on May 13, 2009 (74 FR 15265). First and
second external review drafts of the REA were released for CASAC review
and public comment in October 2009 (74 FR 55843) and February 2010 (75
FR 10252), respectively, and were the subjects of CASAC review meetings
in November 2009 (74 FR 54042) and March 2010 (75 FR 9206),
respectively. In preparing the final REA, EPA has considered comments
received from CASAC and the public on these earlier draft documents.
The REA document announced today conveys the approaches taken to assess
exposures to ambient CO and to characterize associated health risks, as
well as presents key results, observations, and related uncertainties
associated with the quantitative analyses performed. This document will
be available on or about May 28, 2010, through the Agency's Technology
Transfer Network (TTN) Web site at http://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/
standards/co/s_co_index.html. This document may be accessed in the
``Documents from Current Review'' section under ``Risk and Exposure
Assessments.''

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.

Extension:
    Rule 17Ad-3(b); SEC File No. 270-424; OMB Control No. 3235-0473.

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget a request for approval of extension of the following
previously approved collection of information as discussed below:
    Rule 17Ad-3(b) requires registered transfer agents that for each of
two consecutive months have failed to turnaround at least 75% of all
routine items in accordance with the requirements of Rule 17Ad-2(a) or
to process at least 75% of all routine items in accordance with the
requirements of Rule 17Ad-2(a) to send to the chief executive officer
of each issuer for which such registered transfer agent acts a copy of
the written notice required under Rule 17Ad-2(c), (d), and (h). The
issuer may use the information contained in the notices in several
ways: (1) To provide an early warning to the issuer of the transfer
agent's non-compliance with the Commission's minimum performance
standards regarding registered transfer agents, and (2) to assure that
issuers are aware of certain problems and poor performances with
respect to the transfer agents that are servicing the issuer's
securities. If the issuer does not receive notice of a registered
transfer agent's failure to comply with the Commission's minimum
performance standards then the issuer will be unable to take remedial
action to correct the problem or to find another registered transfer
agent. Pursuant to Rule 17Ad-3(b), a transfer agent that has already
filed a Notice of Non-Compliance with the Commission pursuant to Rule
17Ad-2 will only be required to send a copy of that notice to issuers
for which it acts when that transfer agent fails to turnaround 75% of
all routine items or to process 75% of all items.
    The Commission estimates that only two transfer agents will meet
the requirements of Rule 17Ad-3(b). If a transfer agent fails to meet
the minimum requirements under 17Ad-3(b), such transfer agent is simply
sending a copy of a form that had already been produced for the
Commission. The Commission estimates a requirement will take each
respondent approximately one hour to complete, for a total annual
estimate burden of two hours at cost of approximately $60.00 for each
hour. Please note that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid control number.
    Written comments regarding the above information should be directed
to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange Commission, Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget,
Room 10102, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503 or by
sending an e-mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and (ii) R. Corey
Booth, Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange
Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549. Comments must be
submitted to OMB within 30 days of this notice.

    Dated: September 20, 2005.

    Equipment involved: Mitsubishi explained that an unknown number of
nonconforming seat belt assemblies were sold by Mitsubishi to its
authorized dealers in the United States for resale and replacement
purposes.
    Noncompliance: Mitsubishi described the noncompliance as the
failure to provide installation, use and maintenance instructions with
the seat belt assemblies as required in FMVSS No. 209 S4.1(k) and
S4.1(l).

Summary of Mitsubishi's Analysis and Arguments

    Mitsubishi argues that this noncompliance is inconsequential to
motor vehicle safety for the following reasons:
    (1) The service seat belt assemblies in question are only made
available to Mitsubishi authorized dealerships for their use or
subsequence resale. The Mitsubishi parts ordering system used by
Mitsubishi dealers clearly identifies the correct service seat belt
components for any given model/model year/seat position combination and
the parts are unique to each seat belt and designed to assemble
properly only in their intended application.
    (2) When ordering Mitsubishi replacement seat belt parts, the
dealer must refer to the Mitsubishi parts catalog to identify the
ordering part number with the information on the specific vehicle model
type, location and model year. Each replacement seat belt assembly is
packaged individually with a specific part number label to ensure
shipping the correct parts. Dealers routinely confirm that the part
received matches their order to validate that the correct parts were
received.
    (3) Installation instructions for seat belts are readily available
in the Mitsubishi workshop manuals. Technicians at Mitsubishi
dealerships that replace seat belts have access to the installation
instruction information in the workshop manual. Installers other than
Mitsubishi dealership technicians also have seat belt installation
information available in the workshop manuals and are available on the
Mitsubishi Service Web site (www.mitsubishitechinfo.com). As a result,
the seat belt parts can be successfully installed with the information
already available even though installation instructions were not
accompanied in the replacement seat belt assemblies.
    (4) Instructions for proper use and maintenance are described in
the owner's manual which is installed in each vehicle. Therefore,
incorrect usage and maintenance by the vehicle owner is highly
unlikely.
    Mitsubishi is also not aware of any customer or field reports of
replacement seat belt assemblies being incorrectly installed in the
subject applications as a result of the absence of the installation
instructions in the service part. Mitsubishi also is not aware of any
reports requesting the installation instructions, which Mitsubishi
believes is indicative of the availability of this information from the
other sources mentioned above.
    Finally, Mitsubishi has taken action to ensure that all replacement
seat belt assemblies are packaged with the required installation
instructions and has corrected all the replacement seat belt assemblies
in the inventory for shipment to dealers.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Subsequent to filing the subject petition Mitsubishi
notified NHTSA that the noncompliance was corrected on Mitsubishi
Motors Corporation sourced parts on August 27, 2010 and Mitsubishi
Motors North America Manufacturing Division sourced parts on
November 2, 2010.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In summation, Mitsubishi believes that the described noncompliance
of its replacement seat belt assemblies is inconsequential to motor
vehicle safety, and that its petition, to exempt from providing recall
notification of noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118 and
remedying the recall noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120
should be granted.

NHTSA Decision

    Requirement Background: To help ensure proper selection,
installation, usage, and maintenance of seat belt assemblies, paragraph
S4.1(k) of FMVSS No. 209 requires that installation, usage, and
maintenance instructions be provided with seat belt assemblies, other
than those installed by an automobile manufacturer.
    NHTSA's Analysis of Mitsubishi's Reasoning: First, we note that the
subject seat belt assemblies are only made available to Mitsubishi
authorized dealerships for their use or subsequent resale. Because the
parts ordering process used by Mitsubishi authorized dealerships
clearly identifies the correct service part required by model year,
model, and seating position, NHTSA believes that there is little
likelihood that an inappropriate seat belt assembly will be provided
for a specific seating position within a Mitsubishi vehicle.
    Second, we note that technicians at Mitsubishi dealerships have
access to the seat belt assembly installation instruction information
in Mitsubishi Shop Manuals. In addition, installers other than
Mitsubishi dealership technicians can access the installation
instructions from Mitsubishi service manuals, Mitsubishi dealers or
from aftermarket service information compilers. We also believe that
Mitsubishi is correct in stating that the seat belt assemblies are
designed to be installed properly only in their intended application.
Thus, we conclude that sufficient safeguards are in place to prevent
the installation of an improper seat belt assembly.
    NHTSA recognizes the importance of having installation instructions
available to installers as well as use and maintenance instructions
available to consumers. The risk created by this noncompliance is that
someone who purchased an assembly is unable to obtain the necessary
installation information resulting in an incorrectly installed seat
belt assembly. However, because the seat belt assemblies are designed
to be installed properly only in their intended application and the
installation information is widely available to the public, it appears
that there is little likelihood that installers will not be able to
access the installation instructions. Furthermore, we note that
Mitsubishi has stated that they are not aware of any customer field
reports of service seat belt assemblies being incorrectly installed in
the subject applications, nor aware of any reports requesting
installation instructions. These findings suggest that it is unlikely
that seat belts have been improperly installed.
    In addition, although 49 CFR Part 571.209 paragraph S4.1(k)
requires certain instructions specified in SAE Recommended Practice
J800c be included in seat belt replacement instructions, that
requirement applies to seat belts intended to be installed in seating
positions where seat belts do not already exist. The subject seat belt
assemblies are only intended to be used for replacement of original
equipment seat belts; therefore, the instructions do not apply to the
subject seat belt assemblies.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Subaru of America, Inc.; Grant of Application for Decision
of Inconsequential Non-Compliance (65 FR 67472).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With respect to seat belt usage and inspection instructions, we
note that this information is available in the Owner Handbooks that are
included with each new vehicle and apply to the replacement seat belt
assemblies installed in these vehicles. Thus, with respect to usage and
maintenance instructions, it appears that Mitsubishi has met the intent
of S4.1(l) of FMVSS No. 209 for the subject vehicles using alternate
methods for notification.

    NHTSA has granted similar petitions for noncompliance with seat
belt assembly installation and usage instruction standards. Refer to
Hyundai Motor Company (74 FR 9125, March 2, 209); Ford Motor Company
(73 FR 11462, March 3, 2008); Mazda North America Operations (73 FR
11464, March 3, 2008); Ford Motor Company (73 FR 63051, October 22,
2008); Subaru of America, Inc. (65 FR 67471, November 9, 2000);
Bombardier Motor Corporation of America, Inc. (65 FR 60238, October 10,
2000); TRW, Inc. (58 FR 7171, February 4, 1993); and Chrysler
Corporation, (57 FR 45865, October 5, 1992). In all of these cases, the
petitioners demonstrated that the noncompliant seat belt assemblies
were properly installed, and due to their respective replacement parts
ordering systems, improper replacement seat belt assembly selection and
installation would not be likely to occur. Decision: In consideration
of the foregoing, NHTSA has decided that Mitsubishi has met its burden
of persuasion that the FMVSS No. 209 noncompliance in the replacement
seat belts identified in Mitsubishi's Noncompliance Information Report
is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety. Accordingly, Mitsubishi's
petition is granted and the petitioner is exempted from the obligation
of providing notification of, and a remedy for, that noncompliance
under 49 U.S.C. 30118 and 30120.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, this decision
only applies to the replacement seat belt assemblies that Mitsubishi no
longer controlled at the time that it determined that a noncompliance
existed in the subject vehicles.

    Authority: (49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: delegations of authority at
CFR 1.50 and 501.8).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Notice of the Application for Expansion

    OSHA is providing notice that TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc.
(TUVRNA) is applying for an expansion of current recognition as a NRTL.
TUVRNA requests the addition of nine test standards to the NRTL scope
of recognition.
    OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets
the requirements specified in 29 CFR 1910.7. Recognition is an
acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety
testing and certification of the specific products covered within the
scope of recognition. Each NRTL's scope of recognition includes (1) the
type of products the NRTL may test, with each type specified by the
applicable test standard and (2) the recognized site(s) that has/have
the technical capability to perform the

product-testing and product-certification activities for test standards
within the NRTL's scope. Recognition is not a delegation or grant of
government authority; however, recognition enables employers to use
products approved by the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that require
product testing and certification.
    The agency processes applications by a NRTL for initial recognition
and for an expansion or renewal of this recognition, following
requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix requires
that the agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in
processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the
application and provides the preliminary finding. In the second notice,
the agency provides the final decision on the application. These
notices set forth the NRTL's scope of recognition or modifications of
that scope. OSHA maintains an informational web page for each NRTL,
including TUVRNA, which details the NRTL's scope of recognition. These
pages are available from the OSHA website at http://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/index.html.
    TUVRNA currently has eight facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA
for product testing and certification, with the headquarters located
at: TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc., 12 Commerce Road, Newtown,
Connecticut 06470. A complete list of TUVRNA sites recognized by OSHA
is available at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/tuv.html.

II. General Background on the Application

    TUVRNA submitted an application, dated June 19, 2019 (OSHA-2007-
0042-0045), to expand recognition to include the addition of nine test
standards. OSHA staff performed a detailed analysis of the application
packets and reviewed other pertinent information. OSHA did not perform
any on-site reviews in relation to this application.
    Table 1 lists the appropriate test standards found in TUVRNA's
applications for expansion for testing and certification of products
under the NRTL Program.

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

III. Preliminary Finding on the Application

    TUVRNA submitted an acceptable application for expansion of the
scope of recognition. OSHA's review of the application files indicates
that TUVRNA can meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for
expanding recognition to include the addition of these nine test
standards for NRTL testing and certification. This preliminary finding
does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of TUVRNA's
application.
    OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether TUVRNA meets the
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of recognition as a NRTL.
Comments should consist of pertinent written documents and exhibits.
Commenters needing more time to comment must submit a request in
writing, stating the reasons for the request by the due date for
comments. OSHA will limit any extension to 10 days unless the requester
justifies a longer time period. OSHA may deny a request for an
extension if it is not adequately justified. To obtain or review copies
of the exhibits identified in this notice, as well as comments
submitted to the docket, contact the Docket Office, Occupational Safety
and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. These materials
also are available online at https://www.regulations.gov under Docket
No. OSHA-2007-0042.
    OSHA staff will review all comments to the docket submitted in a
timely manner. After addressing the issues raised by these comments,
staff will make a recommendation to the Assistant Secretary of Labor
for Occupational Safety and Health on whether to grant TUVRNA's
applications for expansion of the scope of recognition. The Assistant
Secretary will make the final decision on granting the applications. In
making this decision, the Assistant Secretary may undertake other
proceedings prescribed in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7.
    OSHA will publish a public notice of the final decision in the
Federal Register.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to adopt a trading
license fee for calendar year 2013. The Exchange proposes to make the
rule change operative on January 1, 2013. The text of the proposed rule
change is available on the Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the
principal office of the Exchange, and at the Commission's Public
Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to adopt a trading
license fee for calendar year 2013.
    NYSE Rule 300(b) provides that, in each annual offering, up to 1366
trading licenses for the following calendar year will be sold annually
at a price per trading license to be established each year by the
Exchange pursuant to a rule filing submitted to the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') and that the price per trading
license will be published each year in the Exchange's price list. The
Exchange proposes to leave the current trading license fees in place
for 2013: $40,000 for the first two licenses held by a member
organization, and $25,000 for each additional license. Fees will
continue to be prorated for any portion of the year that a license may
be outstanding. The proposed changes are not otherwise intended to
address any other problem, and the Exchange is not aware of any
significant problem that the affected market participants would have in
complying with the proposed changes.
    The Exchange proposes to make the rule change operative on January
1, 2013.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\3\ in general, and Section 6(b)(4) of the
Act,\4\ in particular, in that it is designed to provide for the
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among
its members and other persons using its facilities. The Exchange
believes that the proposal constitutes an equitable allocation of fees,
as all similarly situated member organizations will be subject to the
same fee structure and access to the Exchange's market is offered on
fair and non-discriminatory terms. The Exchange also believes that the
trading license fee is reasonable because it is the same as it has been
since June 2011.\5\

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 64582 (June 2,
2011), 76 FR 33390 (June 8, 2011) (SR-NYSE-2011-23) and 66108
(January 5, 2012), 77 FR 1768 (January 11, 2012) (SR-NYSE-2011-71).
The trading license fee was initially set at $40,000 in January
2009. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59140 (December 22,
2008), 73 FR 80488 (December 31, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2008-130). In June
2011, the fee was changed to $40,000 per license for the first two
licenses and $25,000 per license for any additional trading
licenses. See supra SR-NYSE-2011-23.

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

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The proposed rule change
will keep trading license fees the same as they have been since June
2011. As a result, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule
change will place an unreasonable burden on current members because
their trading license fees will remain the same. In addition, the
Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will place an
unreasonable burden on potential members because a potential member's
fees will be the same as for a current member and pro-rated for
licenses held for less than year.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \6\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-
4 \7\ thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge
imposed by NYSE.

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \7\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
