14 CFR Part 95

[Docket No. 30859; Amdt. No. 502]

IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts miscellaneous amendments to the required
IFR (instrument flight rules) altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes for which a
minimum or maximum en route authorized IFR altitude is prescribed. This
regulatory action is needed because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System. These changes are designed to provide for the
safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.

DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC, September 20, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Dunham, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AMCAFS-420), Flight Technologies and Programs
Division, Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration,
Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, OK 73125),
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95) amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all aircraft in flight over a
specified route or any portion of that route, as well as the changeover
points (COPs) for Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes as
prescribed in part 95.

The Rule

    The specified IFR altitudes, when used in conjunction with the
prescribed changeover points for those routes, ensure navigation aid
coverage that is adequate for safe flight operations and free of
frequency interference. The reasons and circumstances that create the
need for this amendment involve matters of flight safety and
operational efficiency in the National Airspace System, are related to
published aeronautical charts that are essential to the user, and
provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. In
addition, those various reasons or circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next scheduled charting and publication
date of the flight information to assure its timely availability to the
user. The effective date of this amendment reflects those
considerations. In view of the close and immediate relationship between
these regulatory changes and safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting this amendment are impracticable
and contrary to the public interest and that good cause exists for
making the amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

BILLING CODE 6717-01-P


1 SF 83 SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE NSPS Subpart L Secondary Lead Smelters 1. Identification of the Information Collection 1( a) Title of the Information Collection ICR for NSPS, Subpart L  Information Requirements for Secondary Lead Smelters.

1( b) Short Characterization/ Abstract The New Source Performance Standards ( NSPS) for Secondary Lead Smelters were proposed on June 11, 1973 and promulgated on March 8, 1974. These standards apply to the following facilities in NSPS Subpart L, Secondary Lead Smelters: any pot furnace of more than 250 kg charging capacity, blast ( cupola) furnaces, and reverberatory furnaces, commencing construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart L.

Owners or operators of the affected facilities described must make one time only notifications. Owners or operators are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of any affected facility. There are no monitoring requirements specific to NSPS, Subpart L. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources subject to NSPS.

Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least two years following the date of such measurements, 2 maintenance reports, and records.

Approximately 23 sources are currently subject to the standard, and it is estimated that no additional sources will become subject to the standard in the next three years. These numbers are consistent with the numbers in the previously approved ICR and are based on data in EPA's Aerometric Information Retrieval System ( AIRS) database. The cost of this ICR will be $ 1,895.43 dollars. All reports are sent to the delegated State or Local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the EPA Regional Office.

2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2( a) Need/ Authority for the Collection The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect:

. . . application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which ( taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any nonair quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequately demonstrated [ Section 111( a)( l)].

The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology ( BDT).

Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years.

In addition, Section 114( a) states that:

. . . the Administrator may require any owner or operator subject to any requirement of this Act to: ( A) establish and maintain such records, ( B) make such reports, ( C)

install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment or methods ( in accordance with 3 such methods at such locations, at such intervals, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe), and ( D) sample such emissions, ( E) Keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical, ( F) submit compliance certifications, and ( G)

provide such other information as he may reasonably require.

In the Administrator's judgment, lead and non lead particulate matter emissions from secondary lead smelters cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, NSPS were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart L.

2( b) PRACTICAL UTILITY/ USERS OF THE DATA The control of emissions of particulate matter from secondary lead smelters requires not only the installation of properly designed equipment, but also the operation and maintenance of that equipment. Emissions of lead and non lead particulate matter from secondary lead smelters are the result of operation of pot furnaces, blast furnaces, and reverberatory furnaces. These standards rely on the capture and collection of particulate matter by particulate emission control devices such as an electrostatic precipitator or scrubber. The required notifications are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the standard. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated and the standard is being met. Performance test reports are needed as these are the Agency's record of a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and serve as a record of the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. Operating conditions include the particulate matter concentration in the gas stream 4 during operation of a blast ( cupola) or reverberatory furnace and opacity of gases from a pot furnace. Adequate monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting is necessary to ensure compliance with these standards, as required by the Clean Air Act. The information collected from recordkeeping and reporting requirements is also used for targeting inspections, and is of sufficient quality to be used as evidence in court.

3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria 3( a) Nonduplication The recordkeeping and reporting requested is required under 40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart L. If the standard has not been delegated the information is sent to the appropriate EPA Regional Office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated State or Local Agency. If a State or Local agency has adopted their own similar regulation to implement the Federal Regulation, a copy of the report submitted to the State or Local Agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal Standard. Therefore, no duplication exists.

3( b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this ICR was published in the Federal Register Volume 64, No. 157 on August 16, 1999.

3( c) Consultations No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register Notice on August 16, 1999. 5 3( d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the required standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the likelihood of detecting poor operation and maintenance of control equipment and noncompliance would decrease.

3( e) General Guidelines None of the reporting or recordkeeping requirements contained in 40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart L or otherwise pertinent to this request violate any of the regulations established by OMB in 5 CFR 1320.6.

3( f) Confidentiality The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined not to be private. However, any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, Chapter 1, Part 2, Subpart B  Confidentiality of Business Information ( see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251,

September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).

3( g) Sensitive Questions None of the reporting or recordkeeping requirements contained in 40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart L or otherwise pertinent to this request contain sensitive questions. 6 4. The Respondents and the Information Requested 4( a) Respondents/ SIC Codes The respondents of the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are owners or operators of secondary lead smelters that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after June 11, 1973. They are listed under SIC Code 3341. The government is in the process of transitioning to the new North American Industrial Classification System ( NAICS). The NAIC code for this industry is 331492.

4( b) INFORMATION REQUESTED ( I) Data Items All data in this ICR that is recorded and/ or reported is required by 40 CFR Part 60,

Subpart L, Secondary Lead Smelters.

A source must make the following reports Notification Reports Construction/ reconstruction 60.7( a)( 1)

Anticipated startup 60.7( a)( 2)

Actual startup 60.7( a)( 3)

Initial performance test 60.8( d)

Physical or operational change 60.7( a)( 4) and 60.145( a)

Reports Initial performance test results 60.8 ( a), 7 A source must keep the following records.

Recordkeeping Startups, shutdowns, malfunctions. ( 60.7( b)

Performance test records ( 60.7( d)

Records are required to be retained for two years.

ii. Respondent Activities Respondent Activities Read instructions.

Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate control equipment Perform initial performance test, Reference Method 5 for determination of particulate matter concentration, Method 9 for determination of opacity, and repeat performance tests if necessary.

Write the notifications and reports listed above.

Enter information required to be recorded above.

Submit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information.

Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of processing and maintaining information.

Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information.

Adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements.

Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information.

Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information.

We believe that many regulatory agencies are allowing sources to submit reports by means 8 of a disk or electronically.

5. The Information Collected  Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management 5( a) Agency Activities EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage,

and distribution of the information required under 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart L:

Agency Activities Observe initial performance tests and repeat performance tests if necessary.

Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry.

Audit facility records.

Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Aerometric Information Retrieval System ( AIRS) database.

5( b) Collection Methodology and Management Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority might inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated. Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and note the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs.

Information contained in the reports is entered into AIRS which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards. AIRS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance and annual emission inventory data for 9 over 100,000 industrial and government owned facilities. EPA uses AIRS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by Local and State regulatory agencies, and EPA Regional Offices and Headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required by this regulation must be retained by the owner or operator for two years.

5( c) Small Entity Flexibility The recordkeeping and reporting requirements were selected within the context of this specific subpart and the specific process equipment and pollutant( s). The requirements reflect the burden on small businesses. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced. Although the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for small and larger businesses, the Agency considers these requirements the minimum needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small businesses.

5( d) Collection Schedule The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown on Table 2.

6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection Table 2 documents the computation of individual burdens for each of the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified.

Responses to this information collection are mandatory ( 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart L). The 10 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 OMB control number.

6( a) Estimating Respondent Burden The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated at 34.5 person hours. These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the standards or test methods,

Agency knowledge and experience with the NSPS program, the previously approved ICR, and any comments received.

6( b) Estimating Respondent Costs ( I) Estimating Labor Costs This ICR uses technical labor rates of $ 26.16 plus 110% overhead which equals $ 54.94.

These rates are from the United States Department of Commerce Bureau of Labor Statistics,

March 1999, Table 10: Employment Costs for Private Industry by Occupational and Industry Group. The rates are from column 1: Total compensation. The wage rates have been loaded by adding 110% overhead. Only technical labor rates are used because most of this standard's requirements involve initial reporting of performance tests for new sources which is not anticipated to occur in the next three years or recordkeeping at existing sources of startups, shutdowns and malfunctions .

( ii) Estimating Capital and Operations and Maintenance Costs The only type of industry costs associated with the information collection activity in the standards are labor costs. The capital start up costs are one time costs when a facility becomes subject to the standard. There are no capital start up costs for this regulation since there are no 11 new sources anticipated during the next three years. There are no annual operations and maintenance costs. This is based on the fact that no continuous monitoring is required under this standard. The average annual burden for capital and operations and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 0.

( iii) Capital/ Start up vs. Operating and Maintenance ( O& M) Costs This section is not applicable since there is no continuous monitoring required in NSPS Subpart L.

6( c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost The only Federal costs are user costs associated with analysis of the reported information.

Publication and distribution of the information are part of the AIRS program. Examination of records to be maintained by the respondents will occur as part of the periodic inspection of sources, which is part of EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program.

The average annual Federal Government cost during the 3 years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 0 ( from table 1). This cost is based on an average wage of a ( GS 10 step 1 employee rate, ($

16.52 hr + 110% overhead = $ 34.69) and travel associated with compliance activities. Details upon which this estimate is based appear in Table 1: Agency Burden.

6( d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs The number of existing sources subject to NSPS Subpart L is 23. The number of new sources subject to NSPS Subpart L is zero. The number of total respondents is 23. This is the number of existing sources plus the number of sources anticipated in one year. The total annual responses is 34.5. This number is calculated from the number of new sources multiplied by the number of initial reports, plus the number of existing sources multiplied by the recordkeeping 12 requirements. The total annual labor costs are $ 1,895.43 and total annual capital and O& M costs to the regulated entity are $ 0 dollars. Details upon which this estimate is based appear in Table 2:

Industry Burden.

6( e) Bottom Line Burden Hours And Cost Tables See attached Tables 1 and 2.

6( f) Reasons for Change in Burden The increase in burden from the most recently approved ICR is due to a labor rate increase not a burden hour change. There has been no change in the number of sources.

6( g) Burden Statement Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. 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 OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

Send comments on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided 13 burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated collection techniques to the Director, Collection Strategies Division, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ( 2822), 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW,

Washington, D. C. 20460; and to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk Officer for EPA. Include the EPA ICR number 1128.06 and OMB control number 2060 0080 in any correspondence.

then key in the appropriate docket ID number.
    Certain types of information will not be placed in the EPA Dockets.
Information claimed as CBI and other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute, which is not included in the official public
docket, will not be available for public viewing in EPA's electronic
public docket. EPA's policy is that copyrighted material will not be
placed in EPA's electronic public docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public docket. To the extent
feasible, publicly available docket materials will be made available in
EPA's electronic public docket. When a document is selected from the
index list in EPA Dockets, the system will identify whether the
document is available for viewing in EPA's electronic public docket.
Although not all docket materials may be available electronically, you
may still access any of the publicly available docket materials through
the docket facility identified in Unit I.B.1. EPA intends to work
towards providing electronic access to all of the publicly available
docket materials through EPA's electronic public docket.
    For public commenters, it is important to note that EPA's policy is
that public comments, whether submitted electronically or in paper,
will be made available for public viewing in EPA's electronic public
docket as EPA receives them and without change, unless the comment
contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. When EPA identifies a comment
containing copyrighted material, EPA will provide a reference to that
material in the version of the comment that is placed in EPA's
electronic public docket. The entire printed comment, including the
copyrighted material, will be available in the public docket.
    Public comments submitted on computer disks that are mailed or
delivered to the docket will be transferred to EPA's electronic public
docket. Public comments that are mailed or delivered to the docket will
be scanned and placed in EPA's electronic public docket. Where
practical, physical objects will be photographed, and the photograph
will be placed in EPA's electronic public docket along with a brief
description written by the docket staff.

C. How and to Whom Do I Submit Comments?

    You may submit comments electronically, by mail, or through hand
delivery/courier. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the
appropriate docket ID number in the subject line on the first page of
your comment. Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the
specified comment period. Comments received after the close of the

the docket's normal hours of operation as identified in Unit I.B.1.

D. How Should I Submit CBI to the Agency?

    Do not submit information that you consider to be CBI
electronically through EPA's electronic public docket or by e-mail. You
may claim information that you submit to EPA as CBI by marking any part
or all of that information as CBI (if you submit CBI on disk or CD ROM,
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 CBI). Information so marked will not be

disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part
2.
    In addition to one complete version of the comment that includes
any 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 and EPA's electronic public docket. If you submit
the copy that does not contain CBI on disk or CD ROM, mark the outside
of the disk or CD ROM clearly that it does not contain CBI. Information
not marked as CBI will be included in the public docket and EPA's
electronic public docket without prior notice. If you have any
questions about CBI or the procedures for claiming CBI, please consult
the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

identified.
    8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the appropriate docket
ID number in the subject line on the first page of your response. It
would also be helpful if you provided the name, date, and Federal
Register citation related to your comments.

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is releasing for public comment its human health and
environmental fate and effects risk assessments and related documents
for inorganic chlorate pesticides, and soliciting public comment on
risk management ideas or proposals. The inorganic chlorates consist of
sodium chlorate, calcium chlorate, potassium chlorate and magnesium
chlorate. Only sodium chlorate is present as an active ingredient in
currently registered products. EPA developed the risk assessments and
risk characterization for inorganic chlorates through a modified
version of its public process for making pesticide reregistration
eligibility and tolerance reassessment decisions. Through these
programs, EPA is ensuring that pesticides meet current standards under
the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by the Food
Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA).
    Sodium chlorate is used agriculturally as a defoliant and
dessicant, primarily on cotton, however it is also applied to a wide
variety of other crops including, but not limited to, rice, corn,
soybeans, dry beans, potatoes, sunflowers, flax, safflower, chili
peppers (for processing only), grain sorghum, and wheat. As a non-
selective herbicide it is also applied to industrial/non-crop areas
such as rights-of-ways, building perimeters, ditch banks, bleachers,
airport runways, vacant lots, fire hydrants, or as a pre-paving
treatment. Sodium chlorate is also used as an antimicrobial agent to
generate chlorine dioxide for use to bleach wood pulp/paper and treat
drinking water.
    EPA is providing an opportunity, through this notice, for
interested parties to provide comments and input on the Agency's risk
assessments for inorganic chlorates. Such comments and input could
address, for example, the availability of additional data to further
refine the risk assessments, such as worker exposure data, percent crop
treated information, residue data from food processing studies, use
information for the non-agricultural uses, drinking water treatment
practices, etc., or could address the Agency's risk assessment
methodologies and assumptions as applied to this specific pesticide.
Through this notice, EPA also is providing an opportunity for
interested parties to provide risk management proposals or otherwise
comment on risk management for inorganic chlorates.
    EPA seeks to achieve environmental justice, the fair treatment and
meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race, color,
national origin, or income, in the development, implementation, and
enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. To help
address potential environmental justice issues, the Agency seeks
information on any groups or segments of the population who, as a
result of their location, cultural practices, or other factors, may
have atypical, unusually high exposure to inorganic chlorates, compared
to the general population.
    EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all
pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The
Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public
Participation Process, published in the Federal Register on May 14,
2004, (69 FR 26819)(FRL-7357-9) explains that in conducting these
programs, the Agency is tailoring its public participation process to
be commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of
the issues, and degree of public concern associated with each
pesticide. For inorganic chlorates, a modified, 4-Phase process with
one comment period and ample opportunity for public consultation is
appropriate. However, if as a result of comments received during this
comment period EPA finds that additional issues warranting further
discussion are raised, the Agency may consider an additional comment
period.
    All comments should be submitted using the methods in Unit I. of
the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, and must be received by EPA on or before
the closing date. Comments will become part of the Agency Docket for
inorganic chlorates. Comments received after the close of the comment
period will be marked ``late.'' EPA is not required to consider these
late comments.

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

    Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended directs that, after submission
of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, ``the
Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active
ingredient are eligible for reregistration,'' before calling in product
specific data on individual end-use products and either reregistering
products or taking other ``appropriate regulatory action.''
    Section 408(q) of the FFDCA, 21 U.S.C. 346a(q), requires EPA to
review tolerances and exemptions for pesticide residues in effect as of
August 2, 1996, to determine whether the tolerance or exemption meets
the requirements of section 408(b)(2) or (c)(2) of FFDCA. This review
is to be completed by August 3, 2006.
