AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a state
implementation plan revision submitted by New Jersey to revise its
rules regarding the idling of diesel-powered vehicles. Specifically,
the State's implementation plan revision revises the exceptions to and
exemptions from the State's existing three-minute idling rule. The
intended effect of this action is to approve, as consistent with
section 110(a)(2) of the Clean Air Act, a control strategy that will
help New Jersey achieve attainment of the National Ambient Air Quality
Standards for ozone and fine particulate matter.

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective on May 18, 2009.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID

I. Description of the State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revision

A. What did New Jersey submit?

    On July 2, 2007, New Jersey promulgated amendments to Title 7,
Chapter 27, Subchapter 14, ``Control and Prohibition of Air Pollution
from Diesel-Powered Motor Vehicles,'' of the New Jersey Administrative
Code, that limit the amount of time that engines of diesel-powered
motor vehicles may idle.

New Jersey's original diesel idling rule, adopted on December 2, 1985,
prohibits any person from allowing the engine of a diesel-powered motor
vehicle to idle for more than three consecutive minutes. However, it
also provides exceptions to and exemptions from the three-minute limit.
New Jersey's July 2007 rule revision adds, deletes, and revises certain
exceptions and exemptions, with the overall goal of further limiting
air emissions from idling diesel-powered vehicles within New Jersey.
This revised rule became effective on July 2, 2007.
    On September 13, 2007, New Jersey submitted a state implementation
plan (SIP) revision to EPA, seeking federal approval of its revised
diesel idling regulation. EPA has determined that New Jersey's SIP
revision submittal meets the requirements of section 110 of the Act.
EPA's approval of New Jersey's diesel idling rule makes it Federally-
enforceable, further ensuring that planned emission reductions will
continue to take place. For further information on New Jersey's diesel
idling rule see the October 2, 2008, Proposed Rulemaking (73 FR 57272).

II. Comments on the Proposed Rulemaking

    EPA received no comments on the Proposed Rulemaking, published in
the October 2, 2008, Federal Register (73 FR 57272).

III. Final EPA Action

    EPA is approving the revisions to New Jersey's diesel idling rule
as part of New Jersey's ozone and particulate matter SIPs. Approval of
New Jersey's revised diesel idling rule further ensures that planned
emissions reductions attributable to this program will be achieved. The
State's revised idling rule was promulgated on July 2, 2007, effective
on July 2, 2007, and is codified in Title 7, Chapter 27, Subchapter 14
of the New Jersey Administrative Code, sections 14.1 (``Definitions''),
14.2 (``Applicability'') and 14.3 (``General prohibitions'').

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by June 16, 2009. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of
Proposed Rule Change To Make Conforming Changes to FINRA Rules 6380B
and 6730 To Reflect Amendments Proposed Pursuant to SR-FINRA-2008-060

January 8, 2009.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on January 8, 2009, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') (f/k/a National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(``NASD'')) (``FINRA'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as
described in Items I and II below, which Items have been prepared by
FINRA. FINRA has designated the proposed rule change as constituting a
``non-controversial'' rule change under paragraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4
under the Act,\3\ which renders the proposal effective upon receipt of
this filing by the Commission. The Commission is publishing this notice
to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested
persons.

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

    FINRA is proposing to make conforming changes to Rules 6380B and
6730 to reflect amendments that were proposed pursuant to proposed rule
change SR-FINRA-2008-060, but were superseded by an intervening rule
change.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on FINRA's Web
site at http://www.finra.org, at the principal office of FINRA, 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, FINRA 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. FINRA 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
    On December 11, 2008, FINRA filed proposed rule change SR-FINRA-
2008-060 to amend FINRA rules to clarify the trade reporting
requirements relating to transfers of securities pursuant to an asset
purchase agreement (``APA''). In that filing, FINRA proposed to amend
Rule 6380C(e) relating to trade reporting to the FINRA/NYSE Trade
Reporting Facility (the ``FINRA/NYSE TRF'') and Rule 6730(e) relating
to trade reporting to the Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine
(``TRACE''). SR-FINRA-2008-060 was filed for immediate effectiveness
with an operative date of January 12, 2009.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59126 (December 19,
2008), 73 FR 79948 (December 30, 2008) (notice of filing and
immediate effectiveness of SR-FINRA-2008-060).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 18, 2008, FINRA filed proposed rule change SR-FINRA-
2008-065 to extend the pilot program in Rule 6730(e)(4). SR-FINRA-2008-
065 was filed for immediate effectiveness with an operative date of
January 8, 2009. The underlying text of SR-FINRA-2008-065 did not
reflect the amendments to Rule 6730(e) that were proposed pursuant to
SR-FINRA-2008-

060, because those changes are not operative until January 12, 2009.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See SR-FINRA-2008-065, available at http://www.finra.org/
Industry/Regulation/RuleFilings/2008/P117571.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On December 22, 2008, FINRA filed proposed rule change SR-FINRA-
2008-066 to reflect the closing of the FINRA/NSX Trade Reporting
Facility. As part of that proposed rule change, FINRA proposed to
renumber the rules relating to the FINRA/NYSE TRF and Rule 6380C became
Rule 6380B. SR-FINRA-2008-066 was filed for immediate effectiveness
with an operative date of January 1, 2009. The underlying text of SR-
FINRA-2008-066 did not reflect the amendments to Rule 6380C(e) that
were proposed pursuant to SR-FINRA-2008-060, because those changes are
not operative until January 12, 2009.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59175 (December 30,
2008), 74 FR 840 (January 8, 2009) (notice of filing and immediate
effectiveness of SR-FINRA-2008-066).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Because of the timing of the aforementioned filings, the amendments
to Rules 6380B(e) and 6730(e) that were proposed pursuant to SR-FINRA-
2008-060 were effectively superseded. Accordingly, FINRA is proposing
to make conforming changes to Rules 6380B(e) and 6730(e) to reflect the
amendments that were proposed pursuant to SR-FINRA-2008-060, with no
material changes to those amendments.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\7\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules must be designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest. FINRA believes the proposed rule change will provide
greater clarity to members and the public regarding FINRA's rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    FINRA does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

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

    FINRA represented that the proposed rule change qualifies for
immediate effectiveness pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \8\
and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder \9\ because it: (i) Does not
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) does not impose any significant burden on competition;
and (iii) by its terms, does not become operative for 30 days from the
date on which it was filed, or such shorter time as the Commission may
designate if consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \9\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
    \10\ In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) requires a self-
regulatory organization to give the Commission written notice of its
intent to file the proposed rule change at least five business days
prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such
shorter time as designated by the Commission. FINRA has satisfied
this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has requested that the Commission waive the 30-day
operative delay, so that the proposed rule change may become operative
upon filing. The Commission hereby grants the Exchange's request.\11\
The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because it makes only technical changes to FINRA's rules necessitated
by an earlier rule change and thus should help avoid confusion among
FINRA members and other market participants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ For the purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative
delay, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate 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.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0362; FRL-8421-8]

2-(Decylthio)ethanamine Hydrochloride; and Silver and Compounds
Registration Review; Antimicrobial Pesticide Dockets Opened for Review
and Comment

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: EPA has established registration review dockets for the
pesticides listed in the table in Unit III.A. With this document, EPA
is opening the public comment period for

these registration reviews. Registration review is EPA's periodic
review of pesticide registrations to ensure that each pesticide
continues to satisfy the statutory standard for registration, that is,
the pesticide can perform its intended function without unreasonable
adverse effects on human health or the environment. Registration review
dockets contain information that will assist the public in
understanding the types of information and issues that the Agency may
consider during the course of registration reviews. Through this
program, EPA is ensuring that each pesticide's registration is based on
current scientific and other knowledge, including its effects on human
health and the environment. This document also announces the Agency's
intent not to open a registration review docket for 2,4-
Imidazolidinedione, 3-bromo-1 chloro-5,5-dimethyl-, case 5005. This
pesticide has only one registration that was inadvertently placed in
case 5005. The active ingredient belongs in case 3055. Therefore, the
active ingredient in case 5005 will be included in the registration
review of case 3055, scheduled for 2013.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 22, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments identified by the docket identification
(ID) number for the specific pesticide of interest provided in the
table in Unit III.A., by one of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov.
Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments.
     Mail: Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) Regulatory Public
Docket (7502P), Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania
Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-0001.
     Delivery: OPP Regulatory Public Docket (7502P),
Environmental Protection Agency, Rm. S-4400, One Potomac Yard (South
Bldg.), 2777 S. Crystal Dr., Arlington, VA. Deliveries are only
accepted during the Docket Facility's normal hours of operation (8:30
a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays).
Special arrangements should be made for deliveries of boxed
information. The Docket Facility telephone number is<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Instructions: Direct your comments to the docket ID numbers listed
in the table in Unit III.A. for the pesticides you are commenting on.
EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in the
docket without change and may be made available on-line at http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided,
unless the comment includes information claimed to be Confidential
Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you consider to
be CBI or otherwise protected through regulations.gov or e-mail. The
regulations.gov website is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means
EPA will not know your identity or contact information unless you
provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an e-mail comment
directly to EPA without going through regulations.gov, your e-mail
address will be automatically captured and included as part of the
comment that is placed in the docket and made available on the
Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name and other contact information in the body of your
comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for
clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic
files should avoid the use of special characters, any form of
encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the docket index
available at http://www.regulations.gov. Although listed in the index,
some information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other
material, such as copyrighted material, is not placed on the Internet
and will be publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly
available docket materials are available either in the electronic
docket at http://www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in hard
copy, at the OPP Regulatory Public Docket in Rm. S-4400, One Potomac
Yard (South Bldg.), 2777 S. Crystal Dr., Arlington, VA. The hours of
operation of this Docket Facility are from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday

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
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, farmworker, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry;
pesticide users; and members of the public interested in the sale,
distribution, or use of pesticides. Since others also may 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.
    3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to achieve environmental
justice, the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of any group,
including minority and/or low income populations, 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 or disproportionately high and adverse human
health impacts or environmental effects from exposure to the
pesticide(s) discussed in this document, compared to the general
population.

II. Authority

    EPA is initiating its reviews of the pesticides identified in this
document pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural Regulations
for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C. Section 3(g) of
FIFRA provides, among other things, that the registrations of
pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under FIFRA section 3(a),
a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only if it
meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA section
3(c)(5). When used in accordance with widespread and commonly
recognized practice, the pesticide product must perform its intended
function without unreasonable adverse effects on the environment; that
is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the environment, or a human
dietary risk from residues that result from the use of a pesticide in
or on food.

III. Registration Reviews

 A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    As directed by FIFRA section 3(g), EPA is reviewing the pesticide
registrations identified in the table in this unit to assure that they
continue to satisfy the FIFRA standard for registration--that is, they
can still be used without unreasonable adverse effects on human health
or the environment. A pesticide's registration review begins when the
Agency establishes a docket for the pesticide's registration review
case and opens the docket for public review and comment. At present,
EPA is opening registration review dockets for the cases identified in
the following table.

             Table 1. --Registration Review Dockets Opening
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                   34<PHONE_NUMBER>,
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>------------------------------------------------------------------------

    EPA is also announcing the Agency's intent not to open a
registration review docket for 2,4-Imidazolidinedione, 3-bromo-1
chloro-5,5-dimethyl-, case 5005. This pesticide has only one
registration that was inadvertently placed in case 5005. The active
ingredient belongs in case 3055. Therefore, the active ingredient in
case 5005 will be included in the registration review of case 3055,
scheduled for 2013.

B. Docket Content

    1. Review dockets. The registration review dockets contain
information that the Agency may consider in the course of the
registration review. The Agency may include information from its files
including, but not limited to, the following information:
     An overview of the registration review case status.
     A list of current product registrations and registrants.
     Federal Register notices regarding any pending
registration actions.
     Federal Register notices regarding current or pending
tolerances.
     Risk assessments.
     Bibliographies concerning current registrations.
     Summaries of incident data.
     Any other pertinent data or information.
     Each docket contains a document summarizing what the Agency
currently knows about the pesticide case and a preliminary work plan
for anticipated data and assessment needs. Additional documents provide
more detailed information. During this public comment period, the
Agency is asking that interested persons identify any additional
information they believe the Agency should consider during the
registration reviews of these pesticides. The Agency identifies in each
docket the areas where public comment is specifically requested, though
comment in any area is welcome.
    2. Other related information. More information on these cases,
including the active ingredients for each case, may be located in the
registration review schedule on the Agency's website at http://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/registration_review/schedule.htm. Information on
the Agency's registration review program and its implementing
regulation may be seen at http://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/registration_review.
    3. Information submission requirements. Anyone may submit data or
information in response to this document. To be considered during a
pesticide's registration review, the submitted data or information must
meet the following requirements:
     To ensure that EPA will consider data or information
submitted, interested persons must submit the data or information
during the comment period. The Agency may, at its discretion, consider
data or information submitted at a later date.
     The data or information submitted must be presented in a
legible and useable form. For example, an English translation must
accompany any material that is not in English and a written transcript
must accompany any information submitted as an audiographic or
videographic record. Written material may be submitted in paper or
electronic form.
     Submitters must clearly identify the source of any
submitted data or information.
     Submitters may request the Agency to reconsider data or
information that the Agency rejected in a previous review. However,
submitters

must explain why they believe the Agency should reconsider the data or
information in the pesticide's registration review.
     As provided in 40 CFR 155.58, the registration review
docket for each pesticide case will remain publicly accessible through
the duration of the registration review process; that is, until all
actions required in the final decision on the registration review case
have been completed.

1 Tobacco Products Processing Wastewater Characterization Sampling Telephone Interview Form Date July 25, 2005 Facility Name Philip Morris Park 500 Facility Contacts John Pickelhaupt, David Hichak, Keith Stegall, Chandra Napel Facility Contact Information John. Pickelhaupt@ pmusa. com EPA Contact Jan Matuszko ERG Contacts Betsy Bicknell, Kim Porter, TJ Finseth, Meghan Kandle, Jessica Wolford Interview Questions:

1. Does the facility have process wastewater treatment or pre treatment?

Philip Morris treats process wastewater prior to discharge to the James River. Their sanitary is not pretreated and is discharged to Chester County POTW.

Facilities with pre treatment or treatment 2. Briefly describe the treatment processes. Are there aerobic or anaerobic zones, pH adjustments, chemical additions?

The treatment system treats only process wastewater and some utility blow down from two large coal fired power plants and one natural gas boiler. The system uses biological treatment to treat 1  2 MGD flow depending on the number of process lines operating. The system includes small bar screens for stem removal, grit removal, primary clarifiers, aeration, secondary clarifiers, chlorination, and gravity filter for finished polishing. The sludge is thickened in a primary clarifier and is sent to a belt filter press prior to landfill disposal.

3. What waste streams enter the treatment system?

The treated wastewater includes utility blow down from two coal fired boilers, a fuel boiler, and wastewater from reconstituted tobacco manufacturing.

4. Is the treatment plant outfitted with a single influent, where all plant process waters are combined prior to treatment, or are there multiple influents discharging wastewaters from different plant processes? If multiple influents, what waste streams comprise each influent?

According to Philip Morris, the vast majority of the influent is generated from tobacco processing. 2 There are multiple influents to the treatment system including process wastewater and utility blow down wastewater that are commingled prior to treatment. It is also possible to collect samples of process wastewater only.

7. Describe the characteristics of the effluent from treatment wastewater.

The facility does not have BOD 5 or TSS concentration limits ( permit is based on pounds per day). Mr. Pickelhaupt suggested that the treated wastewater has the appearance of wastewater treated to 10 mg/ L BOD 5 and 10 mg/ L TSS.

General Sampling Questions 11. Where do you currently collect samples? What is your sample collection methodology ( sample tap on a pipe, automatic sampling machine)?

The facility currently collects samples from a recirculating pump that discharges effluent directly to the James River. The sample point is outfitted with a sample tap for sample collection.

12. Briefly describe each sampling point. What waste streams comprise each sampling point. What are the typical flow and wastewater characteristics?

A wastewater treatment influent sample can be taken prior to the bar screen. The water level is 6  8 ft down. This sampling point represents only process wastewater. The temperature is between 28 and 30oC. Another possible influent sample location is from the lift station. The wastewater is approximately 12 ft deep from the top of the manhole. The lift station is where the process wastewater combines with utility blow down wastewater. This point represents influent to the treatment system. EPA decided to take a sample at the bar screen which represents the process wastewater only.

The effluent sample will be collected from a sample tap installed in the line that is used by the facility for sampling. This location is inside the lab.

Sampling Logistics 16. How far apart are the sampling locations? If far apart, what is the best means of transporting sampling equipment to and from the sampling locations? ( Sampling equipment would include several coolers with ice and up to 46 sample bottles.)

The sampling locations are fairly close to each other.

17. Can you provide us with a staging area where we can perform sample preservation, field tests, and sample packaging? Where would this staging area be and how much room could you provide? Is it indoors? Air conditioned? Ventilated? Will it be far from the influent and effluent sampling locations? 3 A table will be ready in a location that can be used as the staging and packing area.

18. Is your facility interested in collecting split samples?

Staff from O'Brien and Geere, Philip Morris contractors, will collect split samples.

Facility Health and Safety Information 21. Are there on site emergency medical facilities ( nurses office, EMTs?) If so, where are they located and how can we reach them? What is the name and location of the nearest hospital?

The nearest hospital is John Randolph Medical Center located at 411 West Randolph Rd Hopewell, VA 23860.

25. What PPE is required by your facility, and specifically for the sampling/ site visit areas?

The PPE required by the facility includes boots, gloves, and safety glasses or goggles when collecting samples and hearing protection in certain parts of the facility. The facility also does not allow jewelry above the waist.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    The Commission requested public comment in a 60-day notice \1\ on
both the proposed FERC-1001 (Hotline and Helpline Survey) and FERC-1002

``collection of information'' as defined by the PRA.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 87 FR 54998, September 8, 2022.
    \2\ 44 U.S.C. 3502(3)(A)(i) (providing that ``collection of
information'' constitutes answers to identical questions posed to,
or identical reporting or recordkeeping requirements imposed on, ten
or more persons, other than agencies, instrumentalities, or

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

    The Commission continues to seek comments on proposed FERC-1002
(Customer Engagement Management Survey), which is described more fully
below.
    Title: Proposed FERC-1002 (Customer Engagement Management
Survey).\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The proposed survey will not be published in the Federal
Register but will be available as part of this notice in the
Commission's eLibrary system.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    OMB Control No: 1902-TBD.
    Type of Request: Request for proposed new information collection.
    Abstract:
    The Proposed FERC-1002 is needed to conduct customer engagement
activities. Customer engagement is needed to further the Commission's
goal of facilitating the public's understanding of FERC's work and
encouraging their participation in FERC matters. The data will allow
FERC to understand which areas of its work are of greater interest to
the public and where additional public outreach and educational
materials or other resources are needed the most. To that end, the
proposed survey, which is attached to this notice, covers customer
engagement activities by FERC's Office of Public Participation (OPP)
and Office of External Affairs (OEA).\4\ Specifically, FERC proposes to
voluntarily collect contact information \5\ and information about a
participant's subject matter areas of interest, and to keep email
distributions to be used to inform interested individuals of workshops,
technical conferences, certain proceedings, press releases, or
newsletters.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The original notice also covered work by Electric Quarterly
Report administrators, which is no longer being proposed in this
notice.
    \5\ We will safeguard the information provided in accordance
with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a). FERC-1002
is authorized by 18 CFR 388.104 and is in accordance with SORN FERC-
62. SORN FERC-62 is being modified concurrently with this notice and
the related PRA submittal to the Office of Management and Budget. If
needed, the Privacy section of the Attachment will be updated upon
approval by OMB.
    \6\ Proposed FERC-1002 covers the following areas of outreach
for customer engagement from OPP: https://www.ferc.gov/office-of-public-participation-subscribe and from OEA: https://www.ferc.gov/ferc-insight-newsletter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this second notice for proposed FERC-1002 (Customer Engagement
Management Survey), FERC proposes fewer survey questions regarding
areas of interest from potential subscribers to updates and
communications from OPP.
    Estimate of Annual Burden: \7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Burden is defined as 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. For
further explanation of what is included in the information
collection burden, see 5 CFR 1320.3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The estimated annual burden charts have been revised from the 60-
day notice to exclude estimated burden for FERC-1002 that had been
associated with administration of Electric Quarterly Reports,\8\ and to
reduce the estimated burden for subscribers of the survey. The
following table sets forth the estimated annual burden and cost \9\ for
the FERC-1002:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Industry burden associated with the Electric Quarterly
Report is covered under FERC-920 (OMB Control No. 1902-0255).
    \9\ Commission staff believes the FERC average wages plus
benefits are a reasonable approximation of the cost for industry and
public respondents. Therefore we are using the 2022 FERC average
cost for wages plus benefits ($91.00 (rounded) per hour or $188,922
(rounded) per year).
