THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS INFORMATION

ACTION REQUESTED

The following is a preliminary human health assessment for Potassium
bicarbonate and Sodium bicarbonate in support of the development of the
Registration Review Work Plan.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS

Executive Summary

Based on the available data and information, the Agency does not foresee
the need for new data or for a new human health risk assessment for
these active ingredients. Hazard and exposure information as well as
Agency risk assessments on Potassium bicarbonate and Sodium bicarbonate
were evaluated against current safety standards established by the
Agency’s scientific policies and regulations and it was determined
that there is no need to conduct an additional human health risk
assessment. These two compounds are found throughout nature in living
systems and in non-living environments. They are an integral part of
humans, other animals, plants, and virtually all living organisms, and
are crucial for normal function. They are also present in soils, water,
rocks, and other parts of the environment. They are found in many
consumer products. Both compounds degrade rapidly into non-toxic
components. There is reasonable certainty that no harm will result to
the general population from exposure to these bicarbonates in the
products containing them as active ingredients when they are used
according to label instructions.

I. Background

Products containing Potassium or Sodium bicarbonate as the active
ingredient are being used as fungicides. Currently, there are eight
products that are registered with BPPD containing Potassium bicarbonate
as the active ingredient.  Three out of the eight products are technical
grade active ingredients (TGAI).  There is one TGAI registered with BPPD
containing Sodium bicarbonate.

II. Tolerances

§ 180.1177   Potassium bicarbonate; exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance.

The biochemical pesticide potassium bicarbonate is exempted from the
requirement of a tolerance in or on all raw agricultural commodities
when applied as a fungicide or post-harvest fungicide in accordance with
good agricultural practices.

[61 FR 67473, Dec. 23, 1996]

§ 180.1176   Sodium bicarbonate; exemption from the requirement of
a tolerance.

The biochemical pesticide sodium bicarbonate is exempted from the
requirement of a tolerance in or on all raw agricultural commodities
when applied as a fungicide or post-harvest fungicide in accordance with
good agricultural practices.

[61 FR 67473, Dec. 23, 1996]

III. Incidents

There were no incidents reported from the use of products containing
Sodium bicarbonate. There were five incidents reported from the use of
products containing Potassium bicarbonate. No details were reported to
the Agency involving incidents from the use of the Potassium bicarbonate
products.

IV. Toxicity Profile

Potassium bicarbonate and Sodium bicarbonate area naturally-occurring
substances and are not expected to have adverse effects on human health.
 All toxicology data requirements have been satisfied and it is unlikely
that any additional data will be required.  Toxicology data and or
rationale to fulfill or waive these requirements are available on the
currently registered EPs; all of which indicate that these products are
of low toxicity.

Please see the tables below for detailed information regarding the
toxicity data requirements.

Available toxicity data as required by 40 CFR 158.2050 regarding
Potassium and Sodium bicarbonate are summarized below in Tables 1-7.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Sunriver Airport, Sunriver, OR, to support IFR
operations under standard instrument approach procedures.

History

    On July 5, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR
31034) Docket FAA-2017-0617 a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to
modify Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at Sunriver Airport, Sunriver, OR. Interested parties were
invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11B, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class
E airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11B, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Sunriver Airport, Sunriver, OR. The airspace is modified
to within 4 miles each side of the 016[deg] bearing extending from
Sunriver Airport to 14.3 miles north of the airport, and within 2.5
miles each side of the 196[deg] bearing extending from the airport to 7
miles south of the airport. This action slightly reduces the airspace
area east and west of the airport due to the new airspace configuration
for the safety and management of aircraft operations at the airport.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. 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. Since this is a routine matter
that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

Records Governing Off-the-Record Communications: Public Notice

November 10, 2009.
    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of
the receipt of prohibited and exempt off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission
decisional employees, who make or receive a prohibited or exempt off-
the-record communication relevant to the merits of a contested
proceeding, to deliver to the Secretary of the Commission, a copy of
the communication, if written, or a summary of the substance of any
oral communication.
    Prohibited communications are included in a public, non-decisional
file associated with, but not a part of, the decisional record of the
proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the prohibited
communication and any responses thereto should become a part of the
decisional record, the prohibited off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to respond to any facts or
contentions made in a prohibited off-the-record communication, and may
request that the Commission place the prohibited

communication and responses thereto in the decisional record. The
Commission will grant such a request only when it determines that
fairness so requires. Any person identified below as having made a
prohibited off-the-record communication shall serve the document on all
parties listed on the official service list for the applicable
proceeding in accordance with Rule 2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
    Exempt off-the-record communications are included in the decisional
record of the proceeding, unless the communication was with a
cooperating agency as described by 40 CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR
385.2201(e)(1)(v).
    The following is a list of off-the-record communications recently
received by the Secretary of the Commission. The communications listed
are grouped by docket numbers in ascending order. These filings are
available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room or
