SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Legal Basis for the Rulemaking

    Under the Household Goods Mover Oversight Enforcement and Reform
Act of 2005 (Title IV Subtitle B of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible,
Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU)),
the Secretary of Transportation (Secretary) must issue regulations
requiring each motor carrier of household goods operating in interstate
commerce to submit a quarterly report. [See section 4214(a)(2) of Pub.
L. 109-59.] The quarterly report must summarize: (1) The number of
shipments that originate and are delivered for individual shippers
during the reporting period by the carrier; (2) the number and general
category of complaints lodged by consumers with the carrier; (3) the
number of claims for loss and damage exceeding $500 filed with the
carrier; and (4) the number of such claims resolved, declined, and
pending during the reporting period. The regulatory changes in this
proposed rule would implement that reporting requirement. Under 49 CFR
1.73(a), the Secretary has delegated the various authorities described
in this section to the FMCSA Administrator.

Background

    The Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999 (Pub. L. 106-159,
December 9, 1999, 113 Stat. 1749) established FMCSA as a separate
agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). Through that
statute, Congress also authorized the Agency to regulate motor carriers
transporting household goods in interstate commerce for individual
shippers. We codified and published regulations setting forth Federal
consumer protection requirements for interstate household goods motor
carriers in 49 CFR part 375.
    In testimony before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Highways and

Transportation (Hearing: Oversight of the Household Goods Moving
Industry. July 12, 2001. No. 107-32),\1\ the Government Accountability
Office urged DOT to collect and analyze nationwide complaint
information that would help the Department understand and oversee the
household goods moving industry. Consumer groups also expressed the
need for DOT to aggregate complaints nationwide to help direct
enforcement activities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ An electronic copy of the Hearing: Oversight of the
Household Goods Moving Industry. July 12, 2001. No. 107-32 may be
found at: http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/Trans/hpw107-32.000/hpw107-32_0f.htm
.

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

    On June 11, 2003, FMCSA published an interim final rule (68 FR
35064) that required household goods motor carriers to have an
arbitration program for individual shippers and to provide prospective
shippers with a description of the household goods motor carrier's
customer complaint and inquiry handling procedure.
    Subsequently, Congress enacted section 4214(a)(2) of SAFETEA-LU,
which directed the Secretary to issue regulations requiring each motor
carrier of household goods to submit a quarterly report summarizing the
following:
     The number of shipments that originate and are delivered
for individual shippers during the reporting period by the carrier;
     The number and general category of complaints lodged by
consumers with the carrier;
     The number of claims for loss and damage exceeding $500
filed with the carrier; and
     The number of such claims resolved, declined, and pending
during the reporting period.
    Although FMCSA maintains both online access for filing consumer
complaints and a consumer complaint hotline, the Agency does not
require household goods motor carriers to report carrier shipments,
complaints received, and claims resolution. This proposed rule would
implement the statutory mandate that each household goods motor carrier
submit quarterly reports addressing these subjects.
    Because an individual shipper has the option of filing a claim or
complaint against any carrier involved in handling his or her household
goods, the Agency interprets the statute as requiring household goods
motor carriers to report all interstate shipments handled by the
carrier, including those in which other carriers may have provided all
or part of the line-haul transportation.

Section 4214 Consumer Complaint Information

    Section 4214(a)(1) requires FMCSA to establish a system, database,
and procedures for filing and logging consumer complaints relating to
household goods motor carriers for the purpose of compiling or linking
complaint information gathered by FMCSA and the States with regard to
such carriers. Section 4214(a)(1) also requires FMCSA to establish
procedures to allow the public to have access, subject to 5 U.S.C.
552(a),\2\ to aggregated complaint information and a process for
carriers to challenge duplicate or fraudulent information in the
database. FMCSA was also directed, under section 4214(a)(3), to develop
a procedure to forward complaints to the motor carrier named in the
complaint and to the appropriate State authority in the State in which
the complainant resides. Section 4214(b) requires FMCSA to consider the
information gathered in the database as a part of the Agency's
household goods compliance and enforcement program. FMCSA has
implemented the requirements of subsections 4214(a)(1), (a)(3), and (b)
of SAFETEA-LU by establishing a system, database, and procedures for
filing and logging consumer complaints relating to household goods
motor carriers.\3\ The only requirement left to implement is section
4214(a)(2). This section requires FMCSA to promulgate regulations
requiring household goods motor carriers to file quarterly reports
about the consumer complaints they receive and their disposition of
loss and damage claims in excess of $500. FMCSA plans to link the
quarterly complaint information reports with the system of complaints
previously established and currently in operation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ The Privacy Act of 1974, Public Law 93-579, 88 Stat, 1897
(December 31, 1974), as amended.
    \3\ Individual shippers may either fill out the Household Goods
Consumer Complaint form found at http://nccdb.fmcsa.dot.gov/HomePage.asp
 or telephone the FMCSA Household Goods Consumer

between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. e.t.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 4214(a)(2) Household Goods Carrier Quarterly Reports: Proposed
Reporting Requirements

    Under section 4214(a)(2)(B), the quarterly report must group
complaints into general categories. In today's NPRM, FMCSA proposes
that household goods carriers be required to submit quarterly reports
on a standard form that prescribes general complaint categories. We
propose to use four general complaint categories and a fifth category
for all other complaints that do not fit within one of the four
specific categories. FMCSA also proposes that household goods motor
carrier quarterly reports be submitted to the Agency either through a
web-based system or in hard copy form.
    In prescribing four specific complaint categories, we seek to
ensure consistency regarding the types and number of complaints--
important factors when we use the data to identify trends, problems and
potential future program changes. This approach helps ensure we collect
data that FMCSA, regulated entities, and the public can compare and
measure meaningfully. If we allow household goods motor carriers to
decide what categories of complaints to report, we may get data that
users cannot measure or compare objectively. Prescribing general
categories of complaints will allow users to compare and assess data
quality by cross-referencing complaint categories in the consumer
database with the quarterly reports from motor carriers.
    Our proposed requirement that carriers record quarterly data on a
standard form would help ensure the collection of data in a way that is
easy to process and disseminate. A standard form avoids the burden of
comparing disparate elements and sorting them into meaningful data.
    The Agency proposes to use the following five complaint categories:
Loss and damage; service \4\; rates or charges; how claims are handled;
and other complaints that do not fall within these four categories. The
four specific complaint categories are the four most often reported to,
or filed with, FMCSA on its household goods complaint hotline or on its
household goods complaint Web page.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Service complaints by individual shippers usually involve
(1) a delay in providing service; or (2) refusal or failure to
provide services as agreed. Two examples are refusing to weigh
shipments upon requests by an individual shipper and failing to pick
up or deliver household goods at agreed upon times or in an agreed
upon manner.
    \5\ See footnote 3 above.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We also propose making this required form web-based so that
household goods motor carriers can submit it electronically. We believe
that most household goods motor carriers have Internet access. With
online filing, we expect fewer data entry mistakes because the
household goods motor carrier directly inputs the information. Online
filing will also reduce processing time and be more cost efficient.
However, we recognize that all carriers may not have convenient
Internet access. If a carrier lacks Internet access,

it may file a paper version of FMCSA's report form.
    The Agency plans to incorporate the quarterly report system into
its COMPASS program. The COMPASS program is an FMCSA-wide initiative
that is consolidating all of FMCSA's separate databases and information
technology systems into one coordinated system that should improve the
Agency's ability to accomplish its mission and serve the public. More
information on COMPASS is available at http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov FMCSA

plans to require motor carriers using the quarterly reporting system to
access the COMPASS system with a secure sign-on procedure. FMCSA plans
to display summaries of all reported data on the Agency's Web site, as
it does with other information in FMCSA's systems.
    As we stated previously, FMCSA also plans to link the quarterly
reports with the other complaints the Agency receives directly from
individual shippers to monitor the household goods industry as required
by subsections 4214(a)(1) and (a)(3) of SAFETEA-LU. This information
will assist FMCSA with its household goods compliance and enforcement
program.

Proposed Penalties for Failing To File a Quarterly Report or for Filing
an Incomplete or Inaccurate Quarterly Report

    Household goods motor carriers or their officers, agents, or
employees who fail to: (1) File a report with FMCSA; (2) specifically,
completely and truthfully answer a question on the report; or (3) make,
prepare, or preserve the report in the form and manner prescribed are
subject to a minimum civil penalty of $650 for each violation and for
each additional day the violation continues under 49 U.S.C. 14901(a).
Under 49 U.S.C. 14907, a maximum civil penalty of $6,500 can be
assessed for: (1) Failing to file a required report; (2) failing to
answer a question on the report within 30 days from the date FMCSA
requires the question to be answered; (3) failing to make, prepare, or
preserve the report in the form and manner prescribed; (4) falsifying,
destroying, or changing the report; (5) filing a false report; (6)
making a false or incomplete entry in the report about a business
related fact; or (7) preparing or preserving the report in violation of
FMCSA regulations.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ For more information, see paragraphs (g)(1) and (g)(16) in
Appendix B to 49 CFR part 386--Penalty Schedule; Violations and
Maximum Civil Penalties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other Approaches We Considered

    In 49 CFR 375.209(b)(4), FMCSA already requires household goods
motor carriers to maintain a record of all inquiries and complaints
received from an individual shipper by any means of communication.
Therefore, household goods motor carriers must already collect
complaint data, presumably on an existing company form or through an
electronic company system organized into general categories useful to
the household goods motor carrier. We considered allowing carriers to
use their existing forms to satisfy section 4214(a)(2) reporting
requirements.
    This approach would permit carriers to report information captured
in their company databases using their own general categories without
prescribing uniform categories of complaints or requiring a standard
form. If a company summarizes its complaint data on its own form using
its own categories, then requiring the company to change to a standard
form and standard categories would impose a burden to weigh against any
possible benefit--especially if the company system already brings in
the numerical data required for the quarterly report under SAFETEA-LU
section 4214(a)(2).
    Although this approach may be less burdensome and less costly for
household goods carriers, it likely would result in a lack of
uniformity in the data received from the industry, severely limiting
the usefulness of the quarterly report.
    We also considered an approach that would be identical to our
proposal, except that web-based reporting would be required in all
circumstances. Required web-based data collection would facilitate
Agency data sorting and processing. On the other hand, for a carrier
without Internet access, requiring web-based reporting would result in
additional cost associated with procuring access through other
locations. Nevertheless, the incremental cost to household goods
carriers of a fully web-based reporting system would be relatively
small, and the Agency is considering a final rule that would not allow
the filing of reports by mail. FMCSA solicits comments on the costs and
feasibility of an all-electronic method of reporting the information
required by section 4214.
    We also considered whether to propose a similar quarterly reporting
requirement for household goods brokers, although SAFETEA-LU does not
mandate such a requirement. We concluded it was premature to propose
such a requirement at this time because we have recently proposed new
regulatory requirements for household goods brokers. Our experience
with the quarterly reporting requirement for household goods carriers
mandated by SAFETEA-LU and proposed in this rulemaking will help the
Agency evaluate whether such a requirement would be useful in
connection with household goods brokers, in light of the new
requirements.

Rulemaking Analyses and Notices

Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures

    FMCSA has made a determination that this action is a significant
regulatory action within the meaning of Executive Order 12866
(Regulatory Planning and Review) and DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979) because of public interest
in household goods transportation issues. The purpose of this analysis
is to present the likely costs and benefits to the motor carrier
industry of complying with these proposed regulations.
    A preliminary estimate of the costs of the proposed complaint
reporting system was made based on certain assumptions. This analysis
assumes that only active household goods motor carriers involved in
interstate commerce will be required to assemble quarterly reports on
complaints received, shipments moved, and loss or damage claims filed.
We estimate that the quarterly reports will take 2 hours per quarter
for household goods motor carriers to assemble. The regulations will
require household goods motor carriers to report the ``number and
general category'' of complaints received, but household goods motor
carriers will not have to provide full details of the complaints, as a
result of this regulation.
    Under the Agency's proposal, we anticipate that most reports will
be compiled and filed via an online report filing system. Regardless of
which method of transmission is chosen, the costs for compiling the
reports are expected to be the same. We assume that the reports will be
compiled and filed by clerical staff working for the motor carrier. The
hourly wage for a general office worker is $11.82 per hour, according
to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Inflating this number by 30 percent
to account for fringe benefits, the total cost of time for a general
office clerk would be $15.37 per hour.
    There are about 5,400 active household goods motor carriers
operating in interstate commerce in the United States as of April 2006.
Assuming 2 hours per report filed, the reports would cost each active
household goods carrier just under $31 to file. Since reports are to be
filed

quarterly, this amounts to an annual per-carrier cost of about $123.
Multiplying this figure by the 5,400 current active household goods
motor carriers yields a total annual cost to the industry of about
$664,000.
    While we anticipate that most motor carriers will file online
reports, some household goods motor carriers would file reports by
mail. Carriers would bear the costs of mailing forms. Although the
number of motor carriers who would choose to file by mail is unknown,
it is unlikely to be very large. For the purposes of the Agency's
regulatory analysis, FMCSA assumed that 25 percent of carriers would
choose to file by mail. Assuming 25 percent of motor carriers opt to
mail forms, FMCSA would expect to receive 5,400 forms by mail a year;
and mailing costs would amount to $5,400 annually.
    Regarding benefits, this rule is intended to improve the Agency's
oversight of the nation's household goods motor carriers and make
complaint data more accessible to the public. FMCSA has experienced an
increase in the number of complaints it receives against household
goods motor carriers in recent years, which could be an indication that
customer service in this industry may be declining. We anticipate that
this requirement will enable the Agency to better detect household
goods motor carriers that are potentially not complying with Federal
regulations governing the movement of household goods, including those
governing the payment of loss and damage claims. Improved monitoring
should reduce the number of complaints against this segment of the
motor carrier industry by assisting the Agency in identifying companies
that may be out of compliance with consumer protection regulations.
Once identified, the Agency can monitor these carriers to ensure
compliance with consumer protection guidelines or take action to remove
them from the household goods moving segment of the industry, if
appropriate. Although the Agency cannot quantify these benefits at this
time, we believe that the rule will result in fewer damaged goods,
better customer satisfaction, and fewer instances in which carriers
attempt to extort inflated payments from individuals by refusing to
deliver their goods. These benefits would result from providing
customers with improved information on past carrier performance. This
information would enable customers to select carriers which do not have
poor customer service, which would result in more business for carriers
that protect customer goods and honor pricing and damaged goods
reimbursement agreements. A copy of the full regulatory evaluation is
in the docket. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has reviewed
this document.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.), Federal agencies must determine whether requirements contained
in rulemakings are subject to information collection provisions of the
PRA and, if they are, obtain approval from the Office of Management and
Budget for each collection of information they conduct, sponsor, or
require through regulations. This rulemaking is subject to those
provisions because it requires motor carriers of household goods to
submit quarterly reports. FMCSA will seek approval of the information
collection requirements proposed in this NPRM and the proposed
Household Goods Motor Carrier Quarterly Report form in the revised
information collection for ``Transportation of Household Goods;
Consumer Protection,'' OMB No. 2126-0025, which covers all information
collections included under 49 CFR part 375.
    The Agency expects the information proposed to be collected will
assist individual shippers of household goods in their commercial
dealings with household goods motor carriers engaged in interstate
commerce, thereby providing a desirable consumer protection service.
The collection of information would be used by prospective household
goods shippers to make informed decisions about contracts and services
to be ordered, executed, and settled within the interstate household
goods carrier industry. The Agency also believes the information will
help consumer advocacy groups to assist household goods shippers to
make informed decisions.
    Assumptions used for calculation of the additional information
collection burdens included in this proposal are the following: (1)
There are currently approximately 5,400 interstate household goods
motor carriers; (2) 75 percent of the quarterly reports of consumer
complaints will be collected electronically; and (3) it will take motor
carriers approximately 2 hours to compile and file the quarterly
reports.
    Household goods motor carriers may file reports online or via
regular mail. For online submission, carriers would use an Internet
portal created by the Agency to fill out an online form that would
require the carrier to submit specific information. The Agency would
therefore specify exactly what data carriers must report. A paper
version of this online form would also be created for carriers that
prefer to file the required information by mail. It is anticipated that
most reports will be compiled and filed via the online report filing
system, by administrative staff in motor carrier offices. Regardless of
which method of transmission is chosen, FMCSA expects the burden for
compiling the reports will be the same. The Agency assumes that, on
average, it will take carriers approximately 2 hours to compile
reports. Since carriers must file quarterly reports, this amounts to an
annual per-carrier burden of 8 hours. Multiplying this figure by the
5,400 current active household goods motor carriers, we estimate a
total annual additional burden of 43,200 hours. See Table 1.

    FMCSA will round the number up to 4,600,000 and ask OMB to approve
this rounded number as the annual burden hour estimate. The Agency

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    FMCSA has completed a preliminary analysis of the burdens on small
businesses as required under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.
601 et seq.) and the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(5 U.S.C. 601 note), and found that this rulemaking will increase
reporting requirements for businesses in the household goods moving
industry. FMCSA expects that compiling and

submitting quarterly reports on complaints received will impose a
modest cost on household goods motor carriers.
    FMCSA's Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) had
5,400 active interstate household goods carriers in the United States
as of April 2006.\7\ Household goods carriers in both interstate and
intrastate commerce brought in a total of approximately $12.7 billion
in revenue in 2002. They employed more than 111,000 people, with a
total payroll of over $3.1 billion.\8\

Household Goods Carriers. April 4, 2006.
    \8\ U.S. Census Bureau. Truck Transportation: 2002. U.S.
Department of Commerce, Economics and Statistics Administration.
October, 2004.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The MCMIS data indicate that the household goods segment employed
more than 165,000 drivers as of April 2006. These numbers are somewhat
higher than those included in the 2002 Census report. The largest 20
household goods carriers employ 110,541 of these drivers, or roughly 67
percent of the drivers employed by this segment. Some 4,926 household
goods carriers employ 20 or fewer drivers, and 4,489 employ 10 or fewer
drivers. This industry is made up of a few very large carriers and many
small-to-medium sized businesses.
    The Small Business Administration's revenue threshold for small
businesses in the used household and office goods moving sector (NAICS
code 484210) is $23.5 million in annual revenue.\9\ The Agency believes
that the vast majority of motor carriers in this sector would fall
under this threshold. Census Bureau data provide evidence that a large
majority of household goods carriers are small businesses.

Size Standards Matched to North American Industry Classification
System Codes'' Effective October 1, 2007. Available online at http://www.sba.gov/idc/groups/public/documents/sba_homepage/serv_sstd_tablepdf.pdf
.

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

    The Economic Census collects data on the size of establishments in
various sectors of the economy. According to the 2002 data, 125 of the
7,225 establishments in the Used Household and Office Goods Moving
segment of the economy had revenues that exceeded $10 million per
year.\10\ These data imply that as many as 98 percent of household
goods carriers would qualify as small businesses. However, given that
some firms have more than one establishment, the Census figures may
underestimate the size of firms in the industry.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ The Economic Census counts each storefront or business
location of a firm as a separate establishment, which is why there
are more establishments than firms in the household goods moving
industry. Also, the Census Bureau found a total of 8,642 firms in
the household goods moving industry, but only 7,225 were in business
for the entire year, which is the number cited above. The Census
Bureau also does not collect data on whether the firm is engaged in
interstate commerce or exclusively in intrastate commerce. Thus,
wholly intrastate firms not regulated by FMCSA are shown in the
Economic Census data.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This rule would require interstate household goods carriers to
submit quarterly reports containing the following data: (1) The number
of shipments by the carrier; (2) the number and general category of
complaints lodged by consumers with the carrier; (3) the number of
claims for loss and damage exceeding $500 filed with the carrier; and
(4) the number of such claims resolved, declined, and pending during
the reporting period. The information requested is not specialized in
nature, and would not require specialized personnel to compile or
submit. A general office worker should be capable of compiling and
submitting the required information. FMCSA estimates that compiling the
information will cost household goods carriers approximately 2 hours
per quarter worth of time, which has an economic value, when aggregated
across the industry, of $664,000 per year. This would be about $123 per
carrier annually. While some carriers may incur additional costs by
opting to submit the information by mail rather than electronically,
these costs will be negligible.
    Accordingly, the Administrator of the FMCSA hereby certifies that
this proposal will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.

Unfunded Mandates Imposed Upon State, Local, and Tribal Governmental
Entities

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4; 2 U.S.C.
1532) requires each agency to assess the effects of its regulatory
actions on State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector.
Any agency promulgating a final rule likely to result in a Federal
mandate requiring expenditures by a State, local or tribal government
or by the private sector of $128.1 million or more in any one year must
prepare a written statement incorporating various assessments,
estimates, and descriptions that are delineated in the Act. FMCSA has
determined that the quarterly report proposed in this rulemaking would
not have an impact of $128.1 million or more in any one year.

Environmental Impacts

    FMCSA analyzed this rule under the National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) (NEPA), the Council on
Environmental Quality Regulations Implementing NEPA (40 CFR 1500-1508),
and FMCSA's NEPA Implementation Order (69 FR 6980, March 1, 2004). This
rule would be categorically excluded from further analysis and
documentation in an environmental assessment or environmental impact
statement under paragraphs 6.m.(6) and 6.q of Appendix 2 to FMCSA's
Order as regulations implementing data collection activities. This rule
would merely amend the information collection requirements for
household goods carriers to include a quarterly report of the number of
shipments, complaints, and claims.
    We have also analyzed this proposed rule under the Clean Air Act,
as amended (CAA) section 176(c), (42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.) and
implementing regulations promulgated by the Environmental Protection
Agency. Approval of this action is exempt from the CAA's general
conformity requirement since it involves rulemaking and policy
development and issuance. See 40 CFR 93.153(c)(2). It would not result
in any emissions increase nor would it have any potential to result in
emissions that are above the general conformity rule's de minimis
emission threshold levels. Moreover, it is reasonably foreseeable that
the rule would not increase total CMV mileage, change the routing of
CMVs, how CMVs operate, or the CMV fleet-mix of motor carriers. This
action merely establishes a quarterly reporting regulation applicable
to the business practices of household goods motor carriers.

Privacy Impact Assessment

    FMCSA conducted a privacy impact assessment of this proposed rule
as required by section 522(a)(5) of the FY 2005 Omnibus Appropriations
Act, Public Law 108-447, 118 Stat. 3268 (December 8, 2004) [set out as
a note to 5 U.S.C. 552a]. FMCSA has determined that the changes
proposed in this rulemaking would not have privacy impacts. The
quarterly reports FMCSA proposes that household goods motor carriers
would submit under this proposal would not include personally
identifiable information about individual shippers or motor carriers.

Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children)

    FMCSA has analyzed this proposed action under Executive Order
13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and
Safety Risks. FMCSA certifies that this proposed action would not cause
any environmental risk to health or safety that may disproportionately
affect children.

Executive Order 12630 (Taking of Private Property)

    FMCSA has analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights. FMCSA does not anticipate that this proposed action
would effect a taking of private property or otherwise have taking
implications under Executive Order 12630.

Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)

    This proposed action has been analyzed in accordance with the
principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 13132, and FMCSA
has preliminarily determined that this proposed action would not
warrant the preparation of a Federalism assessment. FMCSA has
determined that this proposed action would not affect the States'
ability to discharge traditional State government functions.

Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform)

    This proposed action meets applicable standards in sections 3(a)
and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize
litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Executive Order 12372 (Intergovernmental Review)

    The regulations implementing Executive Order 12372 regarding
intergovernmental consultation on Federal programs and activities do
not apply to this NPRM.

Executive Order 13211 (Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use)

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13211,
Actions Concerning Regulations that Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a significant
energy action within the meaning of section 4(b) of the Executive Order
and is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply,
distribution, or use of energy. Therefore, a Statement of Energy
Effects is not required.

Executive Order 13175 (Tribal Consultation)

    The FMCSA has analyzed this action under Executive Order 13175,
dated November 6, 2000, and believes that the proposed action would not
have substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes; would not
impose substantial compliance costs on Indian tribal governments; and
will not preempt tribal law. Therefore, a tribal summary impact
statement is not required.

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2019-0192; FRL-9992-45]

Dinotefuran; Receipt of Application for Emergency Exemptions,
Solicitation of Public Comment

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: EPA has received specific exemption requests from the Virginia
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) to use the
insecticide dinotefuran (CAS No. 165252-70-0) to treat up to 29,000
acres of pome fruits and stone fruits to control the brown marmorated
stinkbug. The applicant proposes uses which are supported by the
Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4) and have been requested
in 5 or more previous years, and petitions for tolerances have not yet
been submitted to the Agency. Therefore, EPA is soliciting public
comment before making the decision whether to grant the exemptions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    You may be potentially affected by this action if you are an
agricultural producer, food manufacturer, or pesticide manufacturer.
The following list of North American Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) codes is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a
guide to help readers determine whether this document applies to them.
Potentially affected entities may include:
     Crop production (NAICS code 111).
     Animal production (NAICS code 112).
     Food manufacturing (NAICS code 311).
     Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS code 32532).

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
www.regulations.gov or email. 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 preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.
    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
discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. What action is the Agency taking?

    Under section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) (7 U.S.C. 136p), at the discretion of the EPA
Administrator, a Federal or State agency may be exempted from any
provision of FIFRA if the EPA Administrator determines that emergency
conditions exist which require the exemption. The VDACS has requested
the EPA Administrator to issue specific exemptions for the use of
dinotefuran on pome fruits and stone fruits to control the brown
marmorated stinkbug. Information in accordance with 40 CFR part 166 was
submitted as part of the requests. In addition to VDACS, several other
states have previously requested specific exemptions for the same uses
and are expected to submit similar requests.
    As part of the requests, the applicant asserts that the rapid
spread of large outbreaks of the brown marmorated stinkbug (a recent
invasive species) resulted in an urgent and non-routine

pest control situation that is expected to cause significant economic
losses without the requested uses. The Applicant proposes to make no
more than two applications at a rate of 0.203 to 0.304 lb. (maximum
total of 0.608 lb.) of dinotefuran per acre, on up to 29,000 acres of
pome fruits and stone fruit grown in Virginia from May 1 to October 15,
2019. A total of 17,632 lbs. of dinotefuran could be used (maximum
acreage at highest rate).
    This notice does not constitute a decision by EPA on the
application itself. The regulations governing FIFRA section 18 at 40
CFR 166.24(a)(7), require publication of a notice of receipt of an
application for a specific exemption proposing a use which is supported
by the Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4) and has been
requested in 5 or more previous years, and a petition for tolerance has
not yet been submitted to the Agency. The notice provides an
opportunity for public comment on the application. The Agency will
review and consider all comments received during the comment period in
determining whether to issue the specific exemptions requested by the
VDACS.
