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

    The Exchange is filing with the Commission a proposal to designate
seventy-five options classes to be added to the Penny Pilot Program
(``Penny Pilot'' or ``Pilot'') on February 1, 2010.\3\ The Exchange is
not proposing to amend any rule text, but simply administering or
enforcing an existing rule.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The Penny Pilot was established in January 2007 and in
October 2009 was expanded and extended through December 31, 2010.
See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 55153 (January 23, 2007),
72 FR 4553 (January 31, 2007) (SR-Phlx-2006-74) (notice of filing
and approval order establishing Penny Pilot); 60873 (October 23,
2009) (SR-Phlx-2009-91) (notice of filing and immediate
effectiveness expanding and extending Penny Pilot); and 60966
(November 9, 2009) (SR-Phlx-2009-094) (notice of filing and
immediate effectiveness adding seventy-five classes to Penny Pilot).
    \4\ See Rule 1034 regarding the Penny Pilot.

Web site at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/NASDAQOMXPHLX/
Filings, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the
Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange 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 these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The purpose of this filing is to identify the next seventy-five
options classes to be added to the Penny Pilot effective February 1,
2010.
    In the Exchange's immediately effective filing to extend and expand
the Penny Pilot through December 31, 2010,\5\ the Exchange proposed
expanding the Pilot four times on a

quarterly basis. Each such quarterly expansion would be of the next
seventy-five most actively traded multiply listed options classes based
on the national average daily volume (``ADV'') for the six months prior
to selection, closing under $200 per share on the Expiration Friday
prior to expansion; however, the month immediately preceding the
addition of options to the Penny Pilot will not be used for the purpose
of the six month analysis. Index option products would be included in
the quarterly expansions if the underlying index levels were under 200.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 60873 (October 23,
2009), 74 FR 56675 (November 2, 2009) (SR-Phlx-2009-91) (notice of
filing and immediate effectiveness).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange is identifying, in the chart below, seventy-five
options classes that it will add to the Penny Pilot on February 1,
2010, based on ADVs for the six months ending December 31, 2009.

cc:  Jim Watson<EMAIL_ADDRESS> Subject:  Re: [Fwd: Fw: Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs) Field Study Presentation]

Michael,

Please see the attached file with some charts showing the effect of ambient

temperature on fuel surface temperature as seen in AST field study for the various

tank sizes.  I have also included a file with couple of charts showing the influence

of control technologies on fuel surface temperature in test tanks.

Regarding your query on the temperature data for the 350 and 1000 gallon tanks, the

file size is too big to be sent via email, as it includes temperature data for each

minute over a period of 2-3 months.  If you want I can send you the max, min and

average ambient and fuel temperature data for each day.  The emissions (g/gal/day)

were calculated using AP-42 methodology which used the actual fuel surface

temperatures for control and test tanks.  Ambient temperature data was not used in

these calculations.

Emissions data shown on slide 14 are the average emissions calculated over 2-months

(September 1-October 26) for 350gal AST and 3-months (July 26-Oct. 26) for 1000 gal

AST.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Effect of Ambient Temperature on Fuel Surface Temperature in

Aboveground Storage Tanks

The 2005 summer-time field study was conducted on Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs) to evaluate the effectiveness of different control technologies.  Two identical sets of common sizes (350, 550 and 1000 gallon) ASTs were tested.  Each size category included a control tank (open system with no controls) and a test tank (with controls).  Thermocouples were used to measure the daily fuel surface temperatures and ambient temperatures.  Each tank configuration was equipped with its own thermocouple.  Data Loggers were used to download all the temperature data from the respective thermocouples.

The field study data indicated that the fuel surface temperature profile in an uncontrolled AST follows very closely with the ambient temperature profile.  Following are the series of charts showing the profile of ambient temperature vs. fuel surface temperature in uncontrolled ASTs:

350 Gallon Fuel Temp vs. Ambient Temp

550 Gallon Fuel Temp vs. Ambient Temp

1000 Gallon Fuel Temp vs. Ambient Temp

Comparison of Fuel Surface Temperatures in

Test Tank (with control technologies) vs. Control Tank (with no controls)

The fuel surface temperature in the test tanks, retrofitted with different control technologies, was attenuated to different extents depending on the type of control technology used.  For example, control technology combinations of Paint+Shade reduced the fuel surface temperature in test tank, resulting in approximately 40% emission reductions.  Foam insulation was the most effective control technology in reducing the fuel surface temperature, resulting in approximately 90% emission reductions.  The U.S. EPA approved AP-42 methodology was used to calculate the emissions using the temperature data collected in the field study.

Following are the charts showing the profile of ambient temperature vs. fuel surface temperature in control AST (with no controls) and test AST retrofitted with various control technologies as tested in the field study:

550 Gallon Test Tank with *PV+Paint+Shade

*PV valve controls emissions from escaping out of the tank and does not affect the fuel surface temperature.

350 Gallon Test Tank with *PV+Insulation

*PV valve controls emissions from escaping out of the tank and does not affect the fuel surface temperature.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2017-14-13, which applies to certain The Boeing Company Model 737-600,
-700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes. AD 2017-14-13
requires a torque check of the screws in the cover assembly of the heel
rest for both the captain's and the first officer's rudder pedals, and
corrective action if necessary. Since the FAA issued AD 2017-14-13,
operators have continued to find loose rudder pedal cover fasteners on
previously inspected airplanes and airplanes outside the applicability
of AD 2017-14-13. This proposed AD would require modifying the rudder
pedal cover and shroud, and apply to all The Boeing Company Model 737-
600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes and Model
737-8 and 737-9 airplanes. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 8,
2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2020-1140;
Project Identifier AD-2020-01009-T'' at the beginning of your comments.
The most helpful comments reference a specific portion of the proposal,
explain the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting
data. The FAA will consider all comments received by the closing date
and may amend the proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact the FAA receives about this proposed AD.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. Any
commentary that the FAA receives which is not specifically designated
as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2017-14-13, Amendment 39-18957 (82 FR 33007, July
19, 2017) (``AD 2017-14-13''), for certain The Boeing Company Model
737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes. AD 2017-
14-13 requires a torque check of the screws in the cover assembly of
the heel rest for both the captain's and the first officer's rudder
pedals, and corrective action if necessary. AD 2017-14-13 resulted from
a report of an aborted takeoff because the rudder pedals were not
operating correctly. Investigation revealed a protruding screw in the
rudder pedal heel rest adjacent to the pedals. The FAA issued AD 2017-
14-13 to address a protruding screw in the cover assembly of the heel
rest of a rudder pedal. A protruding screw could restrict rudder pedal
motion and reduce differential braking control during takeoff or
landing, which could cause a high-speed runway excursion.

Actions Since AD 2017-14-13 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2017-14-13, operators have continued to
find loose rudder pedal cover fasteners on previously inspected
airplanes and on airplanes outside the applicability of the AD. The FAA
has determined that this design issue is an unsafe condition that
affects all The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900,
and -900ER series airplanes and Model 737-8 and 737-9 airplanes.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB,
Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020; and Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin
737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020. The service
information describes procedures for modifying the captain's and first
officer's rudder pedal cover and shroud assemblies. These documents are
distinct since they apply to different airplane models. This service
information is reasonably available because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course of business or by the means
identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining the unsafe condition
described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of
the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would retain none of the requirements of AD 2017-
14-13. This proposed AD would expand the applicability to include all
The Boeing Company Model -600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER
series airplanes and Model 737-8 and 737-9 airplanes. This proposed AD
would require accomplishment of the actions identified in Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020;
and Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1,
dated June 24, 2020; described previously, except as discussed under
``Differences Between this Proposed AD and the Service Information,''
and except for any differences identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this proposed AD.
    For information on the procedures and compliance times, see this
service information at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and
locating Docket No. FAA-2020-1140.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the Service Information

    The effectivity of Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313
RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, is limited to Model 737-8 and 737-
9 airplanes with certain line numbers. The effectivity of Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020,
is limited to Model 737-600, 737-700, 737-700C, 737-800, 737-900, and
737-

900ER series airplanes with certain line numbers. However, the
applicability of this proposed AD includes all Boeing Model 737-600, -
700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes and Model 737-8 and
737-9 airplanes. Because the affected captain's and first officer's
rudder pedal cover and shroud assemblies are rotable parts, the FAA has
determined that these parts could later be installed on airplanes that
were initially delivered with acceptable rudder pedal cover and shroud
assemblies, thereby subjecting those airplanes to the unsafe condition.
The agency has confirmed with Boeing that the Accomplishment
Instructions in Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB,
Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, and Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin
737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, are applicable to the
expanded group of airplanes.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 2,048 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost on U.S.
             Action                     Labor cost           Parts cost     Cost per  product      operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modifying rudder pedal shroud    Up to 13 work-hours x            $5,560   Up to $6,665......  Up to
 assemblies.                      $85 per hour = Up to                                          $13,649,920.
                                  $1,105.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has included all costs in its cost estimate. According to
the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of this proposed AD
may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on
affected operators.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. 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.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA has determined that this proposed AD would not have
federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD
would not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the
relationship between the national Government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by:
0
a. Removing Airworthiness Directive 2017-14-13, Amendment 39-18957 (82
FR 33007, July 19, 2017), and
0
b. Adding the following new airworthiness directive:

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2020-1140; Project Identifier AD-
2020-01009-T.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments on this airworthiness directive
(AD) action by March 8, 2021.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2017-14-13, Amendment 39-18957 (82 FR 33007,
July 19, 2017) (AD 2017-14-13).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all The Boeing Company airplanes specified in
paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) of this AD, certificated in any category.
    (1) Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series
airplanes.
    (2) Model 737-8 and 737-9 airplanes.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 27, Flight
controls.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by a report of an aborted takeoff because
the rudder pedals were not operating correctly, and by additional
reports of loose rudder pedal cover fasteners on previously
inspected airplanes and on additional airplanes that were not
included in the applicability of AD 2017-14-13. The FAA is issuing
this AD to address incorrectly installed cover assembly fasteners
from interfering with the operation of a rudder pedal. An
incorrectly installed fastener could restrict rudder pedal motion
and reduce differential braking control during takeoff or landing,
which could cause a high-speed runway excursion.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Determination of Modification Status

    For airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or
original export certificate of airworthiness issued before the
effective date of this AD: Within 27 months after the date of
issuance of the original airworthiness certificate or original
export certificate of airworthiness, or within 27 months after the
effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, determine whether
the captain's and first officer's rudder pedal cover and shroud
assemblies have been modified as specified in Boeing Alert
Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24,
2020, or 737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, as
applicable, or by production equivalent. A review of airplane
maintenance records is acceptable for this requirement if the
modification status can be conclusively determined from that review.

(h) Modification

    For airplanes that have not been modified as determined by
paragraph (g) of this AD: At

the applicable times specified in the ``Compliance'' paragraph of
Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB, Revision 1, dated
June 24, 2020, or Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB,

24, 2020, which are referred to in Boeing Alert Requirements
Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, and Boeing
Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June
24, 2020, respectively.

(i) Exception to Service Information Specifications

    Where Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin 737-27A1313 RB,
Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, and Boeing Alert Requirements
Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB, Revision 1, dated June 24, 2020, use the
phrase ``the original issue date of'' each Requirements Bulletin for
compliance, this AD requires using the effective date of this AD.

(j) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for the actions specified in
paragraph (h) of this AD, if those actions were performed before the
effective date of this AD using Boeing Alert Requirements Bulletin
737-27A1313 RB, dated March 18, 2020, or Boeing Alert Requirements
Bulletin 737-27A1314 RB, dated March 18, 2020.

(k) Parts Installation Limitation

    (1) For airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or
original export certificate of airworthiness issued after the
effective date of this AD: As of the effective date of this AD, no
person may install a captain's or first officer's rudder pedal cover
or shroud assembly on any airplane, unless the cover or shroud
assembly has been modified in accordance with the requirements of
paragraph (h) of this AD.
    (2) For airplanes with an original airworthiness certificate or
original export certificate of airworthiness issued prior to the
effective date of this AD: After the modification required by
paragraph (h) of this AD has been done, no person may install a
captain's or first officer's rudder pedal cover or shroud assembly
on any airplane, unless the cover or shroud assembly has been
modified in accordance with the requirements of paragraph (h) of
this AD. Reinstallation of a rudder pedal cover or shroud assembly
that has not been modified in accordance with paragraph (h) of this
AD but has been removed for other maintenance is allowed.

(l) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (1) The Manager, Seattle ACO Branch, FAA, has the authority to
approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found
in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your request
to your principal inspector or local Flight Standards District
Office, as appropriate. If sending information directly to the
manager of the certification office, send it to the attention of the
person identified in paragraph (m)(1) of this AD. Information may be
emailed to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    (2) Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate
principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager
of the local flight standards district office/certificate holding
district office.
    (3) An AMOC that provides an acceptable level of safety may be
used for any repair, modification, or alteration required by this AD
if it is approved by The Boeing Company Organization Designation
Authorization (ODA) that has been authorized by the Manager, Seattle
ACO Branch, FAA, to make those findings. To be approved, the repair
method, modification deviation, or alteration deviation must meet
the certification basis of the airplane, and the approval must
specifically refer to this AD.
    (4) AMOCs approved previously for AD 2017-14-13 are not approved
as AMOCs for the corresponding provisions of this AD.
    (5) For service information that contains steps that are labeled
as Required for Compliance (RC), the provisions of paragraphs
(l)(5)(i) and (ii) of this AD apply.
    (i) The steps labeled as RC, including substeps under an RC step
and any figures identified in an RC step, must be done to comply
with the AD. If a step or substep is labeled ``RC Exempt,'' then the
RC requirement is removed from that step or substep. An AMOC is
required for any deviations to RC steps, including substeps and
identified figures.
    (ii) Steps not labeled as RC may be deviated from using accepted
methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or inspection
program without obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided the RC
steps, including substeps and identified figures, can still be done
as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy
condition.

40 CFR Part 180

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0407; FRL-8438-1]

Ammonium chloride; Exemption from the Requirement of a Tolerance

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance for residues of ammonium chloride (CAS Reg. No. 12125-

II. Background and Statutory Findings

    In the Federal Register of June 13, 2008 (73 FR 33814) (FRL-8367-
3), EPA issued a notice pursuant to section 408

of FFDCA, 21 U.S.C. 346a, as amended by FQPA (Public Law 104-170),
announcing the filing of a pesticide petition (PP 8E7329) by SciReg
Inc., 12733 Director's Loop, Woodbridge, VA 22192. The petition
requested that 40 CFR 180.920 be amended by establishing an exemption
from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of ammonium chloride
when used as an inert ingredient in pesticide formulations applied pre-
harvest. That notice included a summary of the petition prepared by the
petitioner. There were no comments received in response to the notice
of filing.
    Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish an
exemption from the requirement for a tolerance (the legal limit for a
pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only if EPA determines that
the tolerance is ``safe.'' Section 408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines
``safe'' to mean that ``there is a reasonable certainty that no harm
will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue,
including all anticipated dietary exposures and all other exposures for
which there is reliable information.'' This includes exposure through
drinking water and in residential settings, but does not include
occupational exposure. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to
give special consideration to exposure of infants and children to the
pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to ``ensure
that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to
infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical
residue. . . .''
    EPA performs a number of analyses to determine the risks from
aggregate exposure to pesticide residues. First, EPA determines the
toxicity of pesticides. Second, EPA examines exposure to the pesticide
through food, drinking water, and through other exposures that occur as
a result of pesticide use in residential settings.

III. Inert Ingredient Definition

    Inert ingredients are all ingredients that are not active
ingredients as defined in 40 CFR 153.125 and include, but are not
limited to, the following types of ingredients (except when they have a
pesticidal efficacy of their own): Solvents such as alcohols and
hydrocarbons; surfactants such as polyoxyethylene ploymers and fatty
acids; carriers such as clay and diatomaceous earth; thickeners such as
carrageenan and modified cellulose; wetting, spreading, and dispersing
agents; propellants in aerosol dispensers; microencapsulating agents;
and emulsifiers. The term ``inert'' is not intended to imply
nontoxicity; the ingredient may or may not be chemically active.
Generally, EPA has exempted inert ingredients from the requirement of a
tolerance based on the low toxicity of the individual inert
ingredients.

IV. Toxicological Profile

    Consistent with section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, EPA has reviewed the
available scientific data and other relevant information in support of
this action and considered its validity, completeness and reliability
and the relationship of this information to human risk. EPA has also
considered available information concerning the variability of the
sensitivities of major identifiable subgroups of consumers, including
infants and children. The nature of the toxic effects caused by
ammonium chloride are discussed in this unit. The following provides a
brief summary of the risk assessment and conclusions for the Agency's
review of ammonium chloride. The Agency's full decision document for
this action is available in the Agency's electronic docket
(regulations.gov) under the docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0407.
    Ammonium and chloride are integral components of normal human
metabolic processes. Ingested ammonium chloride is rapidly absorbed
from the gastrointestinal tract with almost complete absorption
occurring in 3 to 6 hours. It is utilized by the liver to form amino
acids and proteins.
    Acute oral studies on mice and rats given ammonium chloride showed
LD50 values ranging from 1,220 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg)
to 1,630 mg/kg. No acute dermal or inhalation studies are available;
however, skin irritation and eye irritation studies revealed moderate
transient irritation effects. Skin sensitization studies showed that
ammonium chloride has no sensitizing potential. According to the World
Health Organization (WHO), ``The ingestion of ammonium chloride in
doses of around 500-1,000 mg/kg body weight/day (bw/day), for periods
ranging from 1 to 8 days, has induced metabolic acidosis in mice,
guinea-pigs, rats, rabbits, and dogs. However, one study did not report
any toxic effects at doses of up to 1 gram/kg bw in rats, rabbits,
guinea-pigs, and cats (50 animals per group).'' It is also noted that
susceptibility to ammonium chloride differs among species.
    In one study, male Fisher 344 rats given a diet containing 580 mg/
kg/day for 56 days produced no clinical signs of toxicity and no
histopathological changes were attribute to this chemical. Another
study administered 684 mg/kg/day of ammonium chloride to male Sprague-
Dawley rats for 70 days. Treated animals showed a reduction in urinary
pH (6.04 vs. >=7.56 in controls) and an increase in urinary calcium;
however, no crystals were found in the urine. Other urinary parameters
were not affected by treatment. In addition, no histopathological
changes were noted in the stomach, bladder, or kidneys. The no observed
adversed effect level (NOAEL) for these studies are 580 mg/kg/day and
684 mg/kg/day, respectively.
    An 8-day dog study administered 200 mg/kg/day of ammonium chloride.
Metabolic acidosis occurred in the blood and the plasma; however, there
were no changes in the acid-base system in erythrocytes. This study
indicates that ammonium chloride causes substantial acidification of
the blood and urine but does not affect the acid-base system of
erythrocytes. A 330-day study which administered 0 or 1.5% ammonium
chloride in drinking water to rats showed the development of
osteoporosis in test animals due to loss of organic bone substance and
bone minerals. The effect was reversible with the supplement of
bicarbonate. The release of bone mineral by resorption is thought to
provide additional buffering capacity, sparing bicarbonate.
    Renal effects were also observed at high doses in some of the
studies. One study administered 0 or 1.28 g/kg/day of ammonium chloride
via drinking water or gavage to Sprague- Dawley rats for 5 days. Renal
hypertrophy was observed; however, no increase in uptake of radioactive
thymidine was seen, implying that no increase in DNA synthesis or cell
division occurred.
    No evidence of tumors were observed in mice and rats administer
ammonium chloride at doses up to 1% of their diet or drinking water for
up to 652 days. Ammonium chloride is not expected to be carcinogenic.
Based on available mutagencity studies, EPA concludes that ammonium
chloride is not mutagenic.
    No clinical signs of neurotoxicity were seen in any of the repeat
dose studies. Although evidence of neurotoxicity was observed in two
specialized studies at high doses, the scenarios presented are not
likely to occur in a natural setting (i.e. the chemical injected
directly into the brain) and do not include the oral, dermal, or
inhalation routes of exposure. After evaluating the available data and
the expected exposure from the intended use pattern of this inert
ingredient, the Agency does not feel that

a developmental neurotoxicity study is needed.
    The primary effect of ammonium chloride is related to the
subsequent metabolic acidosis that occurs as a result of ingesting high
concentrations of the chemical. Fortunately, the body has compensatory
mechanisms used to return it to homeostasis. It is only after these
buffers are exhausted that adverse effects are seen. According to Food
and Drug Administration in the ``Evaluation of the Health Aspects of
Certain Ammonium Salts as Food Ingredients'' (1974), ``the normal liver
so readily detoxifies ammonium ion from alimentary sources that blood
concentrations of ammonium salts do not rise to the levels necessary to
evoke toxic response.'' The FDA has designated ammonium chloride as a
``Generally Recognized as Safe-GRAS'' chemical for use in food
products. Many of the studies noted that the effects were reversible.
    Although no reproduction studies are available, ammonium chloride
has been used medicinally on pregnant women and has been classified in
Australia under Pregnancy Category A meaning that it ``has been used
for many pregnant women and women of conceiving age, and that there is
no proof of increase in the frequency of deformation and the frequency
of direct or indirect detrimental action to the embryo.'' Because
ammonium chloride is found naturally in the environment and is a normal
component of the human diet, the Agency does not feel that there is an
increased risk to pregnant woman or woman of child-bearing age.
    Available studies show that ammonium chloride is of low toxicity
for human health endpoints. Although one developmental study did
observe 7% ectrodactyly in the offspring of mice that were given 600
mg/kg 4 times a day on day 10 of gestation (2.4 g/kg/day), another
study found no teratogencity in the fetuses of rats given almost 4
times that dosage (~8.9 mg/kg/day) during days 7 to 10 of gestation.
Effects of treatment were seen in regards to fetal weight; however, no
fetal malformations were observed.
    Based on available data, the 56-day rat study was selected for
establishing the chronic Reference Dose (cRfD). In this study the NOAEL
was 580 mg/kg/day (the highest dose tested) where no clinical signs of
toxicity or histopathologic changes were attributed to this chemical.
With an uncertainty factor of 100X for interspecies and intraspecies
extrapolation and the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) safety factor
(SF) reduced to 1X the cRfD is equal to the chronic population adjusted
dose (cPAD).

V. Aggregate Exposures

    In examining aggregate exposure, section 408 of FFDCA directs EPA
to consider available information concerning exposures from the
pesticide residue in food and all other non-occupational exposures,
including drinking water from ground water or surface water and
exposure through pesticide use in gardens, lawns, or buildings
(residential and other indoor uses).
    EPA establishes exemptions from the requirement of a tolerance only
in those cases where it can be clearly demonstrated that the risks from
aggregate exposure to pesticide chemical residues under reasonably
foreseeable circumstances will pose no appreciable risks to human
health. In order to determine the risks from aggregate exposure to
pesticide inert ingredients, the Agency considers the toxicity of the
inert in conjunction with possible exposure to residues of the inert
ingredient through food, drinking water, and through other exposures
that occur as a result of pesticide use in residential settings. If EPA
is able to determine that a finite tolerance is not necessary to ensure
that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from
aggregate exposure to the inert ingredient, an exemption from the
requirement of a tolerance may be established.
    In order to quantify the anticipated dietary exposure, the Agency's
Dietary Exposure Evaluation Model (DEEM) was employed. In modeling
exposure, EPA made several very conservative assumptions including the
assumption that the inert ingredient was used in all food use pesticide
products applied to all crops and that 100% of the crop was treated.
EPA also assumed that the residues of ammonium chloride would be
present in all crops at levels equal to or greater than the highest
established tolerance levels for any pesticide active ingredient for
pre-harvest use.
    Although EPA used a default value of 100 parts per billion for the
concentration of the inert in all sources of drinking water, the Agency
does not anticipate increased exposure to ammonium chloride from
drinking water as a result of the use of ammonium chloride as an inert
ingredient. This conclusion is based on the fact that excess ammonium
chloride is taken up by the plant as a nutrient, the rapid
disassociation of ammonium chloride into its anion/cation parts, and
the regulation of water treatment plants for nutrients in drinking
water. Furthermore, the unpalatability of the amount of ammonium
chloride needed to induce a toxic response would discourage
consumption. Due to the nature of the chemical, it is unlikely that
ammonium chloride will volatize from water.
    This exposure assessment is particularly conservative for several
reasons. Given the wide spread use of ammonium chloride in the food
supply (both as a direct food additive and fertilizer), the amount of
ammonium chloride contributed by its use as an inert ingredient in
pesticide products will not significantly increase the overall exposure
to infants and children. In addition, based on its high water
solubility and the use of this product in the growing phase of plant
life, it is expected that the majority of this inert ingredient will be
washed from the plant prior to it reaching the consumer market and
therefore the residues on the plant will be limited.

VI. Cumulative Effects

    Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) of FFDCA requires that, when considering
whether to establish, modify, or revoke a tolerance, the Agency
consider ``available information'' concerning the cumulative effects of
a particular pesticide's residues and ``other substances that have a
common mechanism of toxicity.''
    Unlike other pesticides for which EPA has followed a cumulative
risk approach based on a common mechanism of toxicity, EPA has not made
a common mechanism of toxicity finding as to ammonium chloride and any
other substances, and these chemicals do not appear to produce a toxic
metabolite produced by other substances. For the purposes of this
tolerance action, therefore, EPA has not assumed that these chemicals
have a common mechanism of toxicity with other substances. For
information regarding EPA's efforts to determine which chemicals have a
common mechanism of toxicity and to evaluate the cumulative effects of
such chemicals, see the policy statements released by EPA's Office of
Pesticide Programs concerning common mechanism determinations and
procedures for cumulating effects from substances found to have a
common mechanism on EPA's website at http://ww.epa.gov/pesticides/
cumulative/.

VII. Additional Safety Factor for the Protection of Infants and
Children

    Section 408 of FFDCA provides that EPA shall apply an additional
tenfold margin of safety for infants and children in the case of
threshold effects to

account for prenatal and postnatal toxicity and the completeness of the
database on toxicity and exposure unless EPA determines that a
different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. EPA
concluded that the FQPA SF for ammonium chloride should be reduced to
1X.
    The database for ammonium chloride is adequate to make a
determination of safety. Although specific reproduction studies have
not been presented, the use of ammonium chloride as a pharmacological
agent gives an understanding of how the chemical will behave.
    Available studies show that ammonium chloride is of low toxicity
for human health endpoints. Although one developmental study did
observe 7% ectrodactyly in the offspring of mice that were given 600
mg/kg 4 times a day (2.4 g/kg/day) on day 10 of gestation, another
study found no teratogencity in the fetuses of rats given almost 4
times that dosage (~8.9 mg/kg/day) during days 7 to 10 of gestation.
Effects of treatment were seen in regards to fetal weight; however, no
fetal malformations were observed. Similar results were seen when rats
were given 0.9% (0.17mol/L) ammonium chloride in drinking water. The
effects seen in these studies are believed to be a result of maternal
acidosis.
    Many of the repeat dose studies and human case studies show that
the effects of ammonium chloride were reversible once the exposure was
removed (in some cases sodium bicarbonate was given to reverse the
acidosis). It was inferred in many of the studies that the toxicity was
secondary to acidosis.
    No clinical signs of neurotoxicity were seen in any of the repeat
dose studies. Although evidence of neurotoxicity was observed in two
specialized studies at high doses, the scenarios presented are not
likely to occur in a natural setting (i.e., the chemical injected
directly into the brain) and do not include the oral, dermal, or
inhalation routes of exposure. After evaluating the available data and
the expected exposure from the intended use pattern of this inert
ingredient, the Agency does not feel that a developmental neurotoxicity
study is needed.
    Ammonium chloride is a natural part of the metabolic process and
therefore, the body has buffers in place to bring the system back to
homeostasis when levels of ammonium or chloride exceed normal values.
Because of the low toxicity of the chemical, the body's ability to
achieve homeostasis, the conservative approach taken for estimating
exposure, the Agency concludes there are reliable data showing that a
reduction of childrens' safety factor from 10X to 1X is safe.

VIII. Determination of Safety for U.S. Population

    EPA determines whether acute and chronic pesticide exposures are
safe by comparing aggregate exposure estimates to the acute population
adjusted dose (aPAD) and cPAD. The aPAD and cPAD represent the highest
safe exposures, taking into account all appropriate uncertainty/safety
factors. EPA calculates the aPAD and cPAD by dividing the point of
departure by all applicable uncertainty/safety factors.
    As noted in Unit IV., ammonium chloride is not expected to pose an
acute risk. To evaluate chronic risk, EPA compared estimated chronic
exposure to the cPAD of 5.8 mg/kg/day. Utilizing a highly conservative
aggregate exposure assessment, the resulting chronic exposure estimates
do not exceed the Agency's level of concern (<100% cPAD). Children 1 to
2 years old were the most highly exposed population with the chronic
exposure estimate occupying 10.8% of the cPAD. In addition, this highly
conservative exposure assessment is protective of any possible non-
occupational exposures to ammonium chloride as it results in exposure
estimates orders of magnitude greater than the high-end exposure
estimates for residential uses of pesticides routinely used by EPA.
    Taking into consideration all available information on ammonium
chloride, it has been determined that there is a reasonable certainty
that no harm to any population subgroup, including infants and
children, will result from aggregate exposure to this chemical.
Therefore, the exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for
residues of ammonium chloride (CAS Reg. No. 12125-02-9), when used as
inert ingredient in pre-harvest applications, under 40 CFR 180.920 can
be considered safe under section 408(q) of the FFDCA.

IX. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Method

    An analytical method is not required for enforcement purposes since
the Agency is establishing an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance without any numerical limitation.

B. Existing Exemptions

    Ammonium chloride has exemptions under 40 CFR 180.910 when used as
an intensifier with ammonium nitrate as a dessicant or defoliant or as
a fire suppressant in aluminum phosphide and magnesium phosphide
formulations and under 40 CFR 180.940(a) as an ingredient in
antimicrobial pesticide formulation where the end-use concentration
cannot exceed 48 parts per million.

C. International Tolerances

    The Agency is not aware of any country requiring a tolerance for
ammonium chloride nor have any CODEX Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) been
established for any food crops at this time.

X. Conclusions

    Therefore, a tolerance exemption is established for ammonium
chloride (CAS Reg. No. 12125-02-9) when used as an inert ingredient in
pesticide formulations applied to growing crops only.

XI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This final rule establishes a tolerance under section 408(d) of
FFDCA in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from
review under Executive Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and
Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this final rule has been
exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this final rule is
not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled Actions Concerning
Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or
Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled
Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks
(62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This final rule does not contain any
information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., nor does it require any
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis
of a petition under section 408(d) of FFDCA, such as the tolerance in
this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.) do not apply.
    This final rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food
handlers, and food retailers, not States or tribes, nor does this
action alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by

Congress in the preemption provisions of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. As
such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a
substantial direct effect on States or tribal governments, on the
relationship between the national government and the States or tribal
governments, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among
the various levels of government or between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined that Executive Order
13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive
Order 13175, entitled Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this final
rule. In addition, this final rule does not impose any enforceable duty
or contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4).
    This action does not involve any technical standards that would
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272
note).

XII. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule 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 this final rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[File No. 500-1]

In the Matter of Urban AG Corp.; Order of Suspension of Trading

March 31, 2015.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Urban AG Corporation (``Urban AG'') because it has not filed a periodic
report since it filed its Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30,
2013, filed on

November 19, 2013. Urban AG's common stock (ticker ``AQUM'') is quoted
on OTC Link (previously ``Pink Sheets'') operated by OTC Markets Group,
Inc.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of Urban AG.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of
Urban AG is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT on March 31,
2015, through 11:59 p.m. EDT on April 14, 2015.

    By the Commission.
Jill M. Peterson,
Assistant Secretary.

of Complaint

    Take notice that on November 28, 2012, pursuant to section 206 of
the Rules of Practice and Procedure of the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission), 18 CFR 385.206, H.Q. Energy Services (U.S.)
Inc. (Complainant) filed a formal complaint against ISO New England
Inc. (Respondent), requesting the Commission to issue an order
requiring the Respondent to revise its Forward Capacity Market tariff
rules to reflect that the Respondent has the burden to change its
standards for determining deliverability for import capacity resources,
as more fully explained in the complaint.
    The Complainant certifies that copies of the complaint were served

file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211, 385.214). Protests will be
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. The Respondent's
answer and all interventions, or protests must be filed on or before
the comment date. The Respondent's answer, motions to intervene, and
protests must be served on the Complainants.
