motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 7 copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission
and must mail a copy to the applicant and to every other party. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments

EPA REGISTRATION DIVISION COMPANY NOTICE OF FILING FOR PESTICIDE
PETITIONS PUBLISHED IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER

EPA Registration Division contact: Cynthia Giles-Parker; Acting Product
Manager, Team 20;<PHONE_NUMBER>

TEMPLATE:

KIM-C1, LLC

2F8055

	EPA has received a pesticide petition (2F8055) from KIM-C-1, LLC, 2547
West Shaw Avenue, Suite 116, Fresno, CA 93711 requesting, pursuant to
section 408(d) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21
U.S.C. 346a(d), to amend 40 CFR part 180

	1. by establishing a temporary tolerance for residues of

	N-(2-chloro-4-pyridinyl-N’-phenylurea (forchlorfenuron) in or on the
raw agricultural commodity almond, cherry (sweet), fig, pear, pistachio,
plum/prune at 0.01 parts per million (ppm).  EPA has determined that the
petition contains data or information regarding the elements set forth
in section 408 (d)(2) of  FDDCA; however, EPA has not fully evaluated
the sufficiency of the submitted data at this time or whether the data
supports granting of the petition. Additional data may be needed before
EPA rules on the petition.

A. Residue Chemistry

	1. Plant metabolism. One plant metabolism study on each of three crops,
including grapes, kiwi fruit and apple fruit, were conducted.  Based on
all three studies the residue of concern was defined as forchlorfenuron
parent compound.

	2. Analytical method. Two analytical methods, both based on high
performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) procedures have been developed.
 The first method used a visible ultraviolet (UV) detector, while the
second method used a mass spectrophotometer (MS) detector.  Since the MS
detector is capable of both qualitative as well as quantitative
measurement, it is the preferred method.  The level of quantification
(LOQ) in all of the crops (i.e., almond, cherry, fig, pear, pistachio
and plum/prune) is 0.01 ppm.

	3. Magnitude of residues. Ten field magnitude of residue trials with
florchlorfenuron were conducted in five counties in California during
the 2006 growing season.  This included residue trials on sweet cherry,
fig, pear, pistachio and plum/prune.  In addition, three almond trials
were conducted in three counties in California during the 2005 and 2006
growing seasons.  Applications on almonds were made at 11.4 grams a.i./A
while applications on the other five crops were made at 10 grams a.i./A.
 Treatments were made with the shortest possible interval between
application and harvest to maximize the residue level.  All commodities
were analyzed for parent compound.  The validated limit of
quantification (LOQ) for forchlorfenuron was set at 0.01 ppm.  The limit
of detection (LOD) was defined as 1/3 of the LOQ or 0.003 ppm for each
matrix.  Residues of forchlorfenuron were < LOQ (0.01 ppm) on all
cherry, fig, pear, pistachio and plum/prune matrices.  No residues of
forchlorfenuron were found in the almond nut in shell samples (<0.01).
Non-detectable to low levels of forchlorfenuron were found in almond
hulls, with the highest level being 0.0841 ppm (0.0935 ppm corrected for
concurrent mean procedural recovery).

B. Toxicological Profile

Acute toxicity.

 Acute toxicity endpoints for forchlorfenuron technical are as follows:

Guideline No./Study  Type	Results	Toxicity Category

870.1100

Acute Oral – Rat	LD50 (mg/kg bw):

M = 4904; F = 4899; Combined = 4918	III

870.1200

Acute Dermal – Rabbit	LD50 (mg/kg bw):

M = >2000; F = >2000	III

870.1300

Acute Inhalation – Rat	LC50 (mg/L):

M = >3.0; F = >3.0	IV

870.2400

Primary Eye Irritation - Rabbit	Mild eye irritant	III

870.2500

Primary Skin Irritation – Rabbit	Non-irritant	IV

870.2600

Dermal Sensitization – Guinea Pig	Non-sensitizer	N/A

Genotoxicty.

The genotoxic potential of forchlorfenuron was studied in vitro in
bacteria and mammalian cells and in vivo in the unscheduled DNA
synthesis test.  The test systems assayed did not show any evidence of
genotoxicity except in the bacterial mutagenicity assay, strain TA1535,
without metabolic activation.  The weight of evidence indicates that
forchlorfenuron does not possess significant genotoxicity concerns.

Reproductive and developmental toxicity.

A developmental toxicity study was conducted with forchlorfenuron using
rats gavaged with levels of 0, 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg/day.  The maternal
and developmental NOAELs were 200 mg/kg/day based on reduced body
weights, body weight gain, food consumption, and an increased incidence
of alopecia in dams.  There were no developmental effects.

A developmental toxicity study was conducted with forchlorfenuron using
rabbits gavaged with doses of 0, 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg/day.  Maternal
toxicity (decreased body weight and body weight gains) were observed at
50 mg/kg/day and above.  The maternal NOAEL was 25 mg/kg/day and the
developmental NOAEL was 100 mg/kg/day.  There were no developmental
effects.

A two generation reproduction study was conducted in rats in which
forchlorfenuron was administered in the diet at levels of 0, 150, 2,000
and 7,500 ppm.  There were no adverse effects of forchlorfenuron on
reproductive success.  Parental toxicity consisted of clinical signs,
inhibition of body weight gain, reduced food consumption, and
macroscopic and microscopic effects in the kidney.  Reproductive
toxicity in the highest dose consisted of slightly reduced live litter
sizes in the F2 litters.  In the pups, body weights and survival (late
lactation period) were reduced and at the high dose, pup mortality and
emaciation were increased.  The parental, pup and reproductive NOAELs
were 150 ppm, 150 ppm and 2,000 ppm, respectively.

Subchronic toxicity.

Forchlorfenuron was tested in rats in a 3-month study at

dietary levels of 0, 200, 1,000 and 5,000 ppm   Observations were
decreased body weight, body weight gain and food efficiency.  The NOAEL
for males was 5,000 ppm (400 mg/kg/day) and in females was 1,000 ppm (84
mg/kg/day).

Forchlorfenuron was tested in a 13-week dietary toxicity study in mice

conducted at dose levels of 0, 900, 1,800, 3,500 and 7,000 ppm.  Effects

included decreased body weight and food consumption, increased relative

liver weight and lymphocytic cell infiltration in the kidneys.  The
NOAEL

was 3,500 ppm (609 mg/kg/day in males and 788 mg/kg/day in females).

A 13-week dietary toxicity study was conducted with forchlorfenuron in

beagle dogs at dose levels of 0, 50, 500 and 5,000 ppm.  Effects
included

decreased body weight gain, food consumption, and food efficiency.  The

NOAEL for both sexes was 500 ppm (16.8 mg/kg/day in males and 19.1

mg/kg/day in females).

Chronic toxicity.

In a 104-week combined chronic/oncogenicity study in rats,
forchlorfenuron was administered in the diet at dose levels of 0, 150,
2,000 and 7,500 ppm.  Findings were decreased body weight and body
histopathological effects in the kidney.  No oncogenicity was found.
The NOAEL for this study was 150 ppm (7 mg/kg/day in males and 9
mg/kg/day in females).

Forchlorfenuron was administered in the diet to mice for 78-weeks at
dose

levels of 0, 10, and 1,000 mg/kg/day.  Observations were decreased body

weight, body weight gain, food consumption, increased kidney weights and

incidence of chronic kidney histopathological lesions.  The NOAEL for
both

sexes was 10 mg/kg/day.  No oncogenicity was found.

In a 12-month study, forchlorfenuron was administered in the diet given
to

dogs at dose levels of 0, 150, 3,000 and 7,500 ppm.  Observations
included

reduced body weight, body weight gain, food consumption, and various

hematology changes.  The NOAEL for both sexes was 3,000 ppm (87

mg/kg/day in males and 91 mg/kg/day in females).

Animal metabolism.

A rat metabolism study indicated that forchlorfenuron is almost
completely

absorbed and most of the 14C-forchlorfenuron-derived radioactivity is
rapidly

eliminated primarily via the urine.  The majority of the metabolism of

forchlorfenuron was via hydroxylation of the phenyl ring.  The sulfate

conjugate of the hydroxyl forchlrofenuron was the major metabolite
excreted

in the urine, accounting for as much as approximately 96% of the urinary

radioactivity.  Tissue residues accounted for less than 1% of the
administered

dose at 168 hours post-dosing.

Metabolite toxicology.

Metabolites occur at levels below 0.1 ppm and, therefore, are below
levels

required to be assayed in animal testing.  Nevertheless, the toxicity of
sulfate

conjugate (and any other animal metabolites) was assessed during the
conduct

of the CPPU required mammalian toxicity studies.

Endocrine disruption.

No special studies to investigate the potential for endocrine effects of
forchlorfenuron have been performed.  However, a large, detailed
toxicology data base exists for the compound with studies in all
required categories.  Included are acute, sub-chronic, chronic,
developmental and reproductive toxicology studies, with detailed
histology and histopathology of numerous tissues, including endocrine
organs, following repeated or long-term exposures.  These studies are
considered capable of revealing endocrine effects.  The results of all
of these studies show no evidence of any endocrine-mediated effects and
no pathology of the endocrine organs.  Consequently, it is concluded
that forchlorfenuron does not possess estrogenic or endocrine disrupting
properties.

C. Aggregate Exposure

Dietary exposure.

A dietary exposure assessment was conducted looking at a number of crops
including almond, fig, pear and prune (as well as apples, blueberries,
grapes and kiwifruit).  This assessment was conducted in connection with
a previous EUP that was obtained for development of efficacy data on the
above listed crops.  The following information was published by EPA in
FR, Vol. 69, No. 67, pp. 18375-18380,  4/7/04.

Food.

A reference dose (RfD) was calculated using the most sensitive species
data available from the toxicological testing. The calculated RfD of
0.08 mg/kg/day was used to calculate the impact of the estimated residue
with results from treatment of the total acreage of all crops included
in the prior EUP.  Making the same risk exposure calculations, it was
shown that there was no significant impact on reducing the RfD by using
almonds, apples, blueberries, figs, grapes, kiwifruit, pears and plums
in aggregate.

Drinking water.

 EPA stated the following in FR Vol. 73, No. 159, pp. 47841-47847, under
“Forchlorfenuron; Permanent and Time-Limited Pesticide Tolerances”
wherein EPA established permanent tolerances for residues of
forchlorfenuron in or on bushberry subgroup 13-07B and time-limited
tolerances under Petition No. 7F7246 for use on almond, cherry (sweet),
fig, pear, pistachio and plum/prune (see FR pp. 47844);

“The Agency used screening level water exposure models in the dietary

exposure analysis and risk assessment for forchlorfenuron in drinking

water.  Forchlorfenuron is persistent and moderately mobile in soils.

Forchlorfenuron is also a substituted urea plant growth regulator that
is

essentially stable to all routes of dissipation except sensitized

photodegradation in water. Based on the Pesticide Root Zone Model /

Exposure Analysis Modeling System (PRZM/EXAMS) and Screening

Concentration in Ground Water (SCI-GROW) models, the Estimated

Environmental Concentrations (EECs) of forchlorfenuron from the newly

proposed use on bushberries and the uses on almonds, sweet cherries,
figs,

 pears, plums and pistachios under the EUP will not exceed the EECs from

the grape and kiwi uses previously assessed by the Agency in document

titled Drinking Water Assessment for Forchlorfenuron for Grape and Kiwi

Uses. Therefore, the Agency has incorporated the drinking water EEC

from the grape and kiwi analysis directly into this dietary assessment.
For

chronic dietary risk assessment, the water concentration of value 0.003

ppb was used to assess the contribution to drinking water.”

Non-dietary exposure.

EPA noted the following in FR Vol. 73, No. 159, 8/15/08 in the notice

establishing the prior temporary tolerances under PP 7F7246 in almonds,

sweet cherries, figs, pears, plums and pistachios in regard to
non-dietary

exposure:

“The term ‘‘residential exposure’’ is used in this document to
refer to non-occupational, non-dietary exposure (e.g., for lawn and
garden pest control,

indoor pest control, termiticides, and flea and tick control on pets).
Forchlorfenuron is not registered for any specific use patterns that
would

result in residential exposure.”

D. Cumulative Effects

EPA noted the following in FR Vol. 73, No. 159, 8/15/08 in the FR Notice
establishing prior temporary tolerances under PP 7F7246 in almonds,
sweet cherries, figs, pears, plums and pistachios in regard to
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.’’  EPA has not made a common mechanism
of toxicity finding as to forchlorfenuron and any other substances and
forchlorfenuron does not appear to produce a toxic metabolite produced
by other substances. For the purposes of this tolerance action,
therefore, EPA has not assumed that forchlorfenuron has a common
mechanism of toxicity with other substances.”

E. Safety Determination

EPA noted the following in FR Vol. 73, No. 159, 8/15/08 in the notice
establishing prior temporary tolerances under PP 7F7246 in almond, sweet
cherry, fig, pear, pistachio and plum/prune relative to the Agency’s
conclusions regarding the safety of the proposed uses under the proposed
temporary tolerances for forchlorfenuron (which are the same tolerance
levels proposed in this Petition):

“EPA has determined that reliable data show the safety of infants and
children would be adequately protected if the FQPA SF were reduced to
1X. That decision is based on the following findings:

The toxicity database for forchlorfenuron is complete.

There is no indication that forchlorfenuron is a neurotoxic chemical and
there is no need for a developmental neurotoxicity study or additional
UFs to account for neurotoxicity.

There is no evidence that forchlorfenuron results in increased
susceptibility in in

utero rats or rabbits in the prenatal developmental studies or in young
rats in the 2–generation reproduction study.

There are no residual uncertainties identified in the exposure
databases.  EPA made conservative (protective) assumptions in the ground
and surface water modeling used to assess exposure to forchlorfenuron in
drinking water.  EPA used similarly conservative assumptions to assess
exposure to forchlorfenuron residues in food. These assessments will not
underestimate the exposure and risks posed by forchlorfenuron.

EPA determines whether acute and chronic pesticide exposures are safe by

comparing aggregate exposure estimates to the aPAD and cPAD. The aPAD
and cPAD represent the highest safe exposures, taking into account all
appropriate SFs. EPA calculates the aPAD and cPAD by dividing the POD by
all applicable UFs. For linear cancer risks, EPA calculates the
probability of additional cancer cases given the estimated aggregate
exposure. Short-term, intermediate-term, and chronic-term risks are
evaluated by comparing the estimated aggregate food, water, and

residential exposure to the POD to ensure that the margin of exposure

(MOE) called for by the product of all applicable UFs is not exceeded.

1. Acute risk. An acute aggregate risk assessment takes into account
exposure estimates from acute dietary consumption of food and drinking

water. No adverse effect resulting from a single-oral exposure was
identified and no acute dietary endpoint was selected. Therefore,
forchlorfenuron is not expected to pose an acute risk.

2. Chronic risk. Using the exposure assumptions described in this unit
for

chronic exposure, EPA has concluded that chronic exposure to
forchlorfenuron from food and water will utilize <1% of the cPAD for the

general U.S. population and all subpopulations. There are no residential

uses for forchlorfenuron.

3. Short-term and intermediate-term risk. Short-term and
Intermediate-term aggregate exposure takes into account short-term and
intermediate-term residential exposure plus chronic exposure to food and
water (considered to be a background exposure level).  Forchlorfenuron
is not registered for any use patterns that would result in short-term
and intermediate-term residential exposure. Therefore, the short-term
and intermediate-term aggregate risk, individually is the sum of the
risk from exposure to forchlorfenuron through food and water, which has
already been addressed, and will not be greater than the chronic
aggregate risk.

4. Aggregate cancer risk for U.S. population. Since forchlorfenuron has

been classified as not likely to be carcinogenic, aggregate cancer risk
is

not a concern.

5. Determination of safety-U.S. population and Infants & Children.
Based on these risk assessments, EPA concludes that there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will result to the general population
or to infants and children from aggregate exposure to

forchlorfenuron residues.

F. International Tolerances

The following international tolerances exist for forchlorfenuron:

Australia: An MRL of 0.01 ppm has been established for grapes and as a
temporary MRL level for blueberries, mango and plum/prune.

European Union: Forchlorfenuron MRLs are set for table grapes and
kiwifruit at 0.05 ppm.  However, a new EU MRL of 0.01 ppm is proposed
because sufficient trials are available showing residues below 0.01 ppm

Israel: An MRL of 0.01 ppm has been established for table grapes, wine
grapes and kiwifruit.

Japan: An MRL of 0.01 has been set for almonds.

Mexico: Has deferred to the U.S. Tolerances.  Therefore, all
forchlorfenuron tolerances established in the U.S. apply to Mexico.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-0015, OMB Control No. 3235-0021]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736.

Extension:
    Rule 6a-3

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for extension of the previously approved
collection of information provided for in Rule 6a-3 (17 CFR 240.6a-3)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.)
(``Act'').
    Section 6 of the Act sets out a framework for the registration and
regulation of national securities exchanges. Under Rule 6a-3, one of
the rules that implements Section 6, a national securities exchange (or
an exchange exempted from registration based on limited trading volume)
must provide certain supplemental information to the Commission,
including any material (including notices, circulars, bulletins, lists,
and periodicals) issued or made generally available to members of, or
participants or subscribers to, the exchange. Rule 6a-3 also requires
the exchanges to file monthly reports that set forth the volume and
aggregate dollar amount of certain securities sold on the exchange each
month. The information required to be filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 6a-3 is designed to enable the Commission to carry out
its statutorily mandated oversight functions and to ensure that
registered and exempt exchanges continue to be in compliance with the
Act.
    The Commission estimates that each respondent makes approximately
12 such filings on an annual basis. Each response takes approximately
0.5 hours. In addition, respondents incur shipping costs of
approximately $20 per submission. Currently, 21 respondents (21
national securities exchanges) are subject to the collection of
information requirements of Rule 6a-3. The Commission estimates that
the total burden for all respondents is 126 hours and $5040 per year.
    Compliance with Rule 6a-3 is mandatory for registered and exempt
exchanges. Information received in response to Rule 6a-3 shall not be
kept confidential; the information collected is public information. As
set forth in Rule 17a-1 (17 CFR 240.17a-1) under the Act, a national
securities exchange is required to retain records of the collection of
information for at least five years.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Comments should
be directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration

[Docket No. PHMSA-2011-0122, Notice No. 11-4]

Safety Advisory; Unauthorized Marking of Compressed Gas Cylinders

AGENCY: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA),
DOT.

ACTION: Safety Advisory Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice advises the public that PHMSA has recently
confirmed an undetermined number of certain (aluminum) cylinders were
improperly marked and represented as DOT specification 3AL cylinders.
The cylinders were neither marked nor certified by an authorized
independent inspection agency (IIA) with its official mark and date, in
accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. Therefore, the
cylinders are unauthorized for hazardous materials service. Prior to
filling these cylinders, a person must verify that the IIA's official
mark is stamped between the month and year manufactured. The evidence
suggests that if the cylinder is marked with a period (.) rather than
the official IIA mark, the cylinder did not undergo the complete series
of safety tests and inspections required by the Hazardous Materials
Regulations (HMR) and may not possess the structural integrity to
safely contain its contents under pressure during normal transportation
and use. Extensive property damage, serious personal injury, or death
could result from a rupture of the cylinder. Individuals who identify a
cylinder marked with only a period (.) between the month and year are
advised to remove these cylinders from service and contact PHMSA
directly at the below address for further instructions.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Yuying Chen, U.S. Agent for
Shanghai Qingpu Fire Fighting Equipment Company, Ltd., 1005 Mirror
Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15217, Telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, E-mail:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: An undetermined number of the cylinders
(typically used for home kegerators), were manufactured between 2009
through 2011 and improperly marked with the manufacturer's symbol
``M0306.'' The cylinders have been stamped with a period (.) between
the month and year of manufacture, i.e., ``8.10.'' PHMSA issued the
manufacturing symbol ``M0306'' to Shanghai Qingpu Fire Fighting
Equipment Company, Ltd. (Qingpu), located in Shanghai, China. Arrowhead
Industrial Services, Inc. (Arrowhead), as Qingpu's authorized
independent inspection agency, would have marked the cylinders that
passed inspection with its official mark (the letter ``A'' inside of an
arrowhead) between the month and year of manufacture.
    Prior to filling these cylinders, a person must verify that
Arrowhead's official mark is stamped between the month and year
manufactured. Arrowhead does not use a period (.) between the month and
year of manufacturing as part of its official mark.
    If the cylinder is identified as marked with a period (.) between
the month and year, in lieu of the authorized Arrowhead mark, the
person in possession of the cylinder is advised to remove that cylinder
from service and contact Qingpu's U.S. Agent at the address in this
notice.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on June 1, 2011.
Magdy El-Sibaie,
Associate Administrator for Hazardous Materials Safety.

Discussion Topics

On July 10, 2009, representatives from the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency participated in a conference call at the request of
representatives from the American Petroleum Institute (API) Air Toxics
Task Force.  API discussed their concerns regarding certain revisions to
the Standards of Performance for Coal Preparation and Processing Plants
(40 CFR part 60 subpart Y), as proposed in a May 27, 2009, supplemental
action.  The concerns raised by API relate to the revised definition of
“coal,” which as proposed, includes petroleum coke and, thus, API
believes would likely result in facilities that manufacture petroleum
coke becoming subject to subpart Y.  Specifically, API is concerned
about potential inclusion of the following sources:

coke calcining operations

coke drum operations (i.e., where coke that has built up is drilled out
and dumped onto a pit pad below the process unit)

coke handling and transfer operations

API explained that the above operations are “manufacturing” sources
rather than “processing” sources and, as such, should not be
regulated under subpart Y.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon written request, copies available from: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.

Extension: Rules 17Ad-6 and 17Ad-7, SEC File No. 270-151, OMB
Control No. 3235-0291.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of
information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and
Budget for extension and approval.

Rules 17Ad-6 and 17Ad-7: Recordkeeping Requirements for Transfer Agents

    Rule 17Ad-6 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C.
78b et seq.) requires every registered transfer agent to make and keep
current records about a variety of information, such as: (1) Specific
operational data regarding the time taken to perform transfer agent
activities (to ensure compliance with the minimum performance standards
in Rule 17Ad-2 (17 CFR 240.17Ad-2); (2) written inquiries and requests
by shareholders and broker-dealers and response time thereto; (3)
resolutions, contracts or other supporting documents concerning the
appointment or termination of the transfer agent; (4) stop orders or
notices of adverse claims to the securities; and (5) all canceled
registered securities certificates.
    Rule 17Ad-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C.
78b et seq.) requires each registered transfer agent to retain the
records specified in Rule 17Ad-6 in an easily accessible place for a
period of six months to six years, depending on the type of record or
document. Rule 17Ad-7 also specifies the manner in which records may be
maintained using electronic, microfilm, and microfiche storage methods.
    These recordkeeping requirements ensure that all registered
transfer agents are maintaining the records necessary to monitor and
keep control over their own performance and for the Commission to
adequately examine registered transfer agents on an historical basis
for compliance with applicable rules.
    We estimate that approximately 785 registered transfer agents will
spend a total of 392,500 hours per year complying with Rules 17Ad-6 and
17Ad-7. Based on average cost per hour of $50, the total cost of
compliance with Rule 17Ad-6 is $19,625,000.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this publication.
    Please direct your written comments to R. Corey Booth, Director/
Chief Information Officer, Office of Information Technology, Securities
and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549.

    Dated: March 13, 2006.
Nancy M. Morris,
Secretary.

Food and Drug Administration, Three White Flint North, 10A-12M, 11601
Landsdown St., North Bethesda, MD 20852,<PHONE_NUMBER>,
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.

FDA Administrative Practices and Procedures

OMB Control No. 0910-0191--Revision

    This information collection helps support implementation of FDA
regulations found in part 10 (21 CFR part 10), parts 12 through 16 (21
CFR parts 12 through 16), and part 19 (21 CFR part 19). These
regulations are established in accordance with the Administrative
Procedures Act (5 U.S.C. subchapter II) and implement administrative
practice and procedures to give instructions to those conducting
business with FDA. Regulations in part 10 describe general
administrative practices and include content and format instruction on
submitting information to the Agency, petitions for Agency action, and
other topics such as the public calendar. Regulations in parts 12
through 16 cover formal evidentiary, public, and regulatory hearings.
The information collection also includes burden associated with waiver
requests under Sec.  10.19 (21 CFR 10.19). Unless a waiver, suspension,
or modification submitted under Sec.  10.19 is granted by the
Commissioner of Food and Drugs, the regulations in part 10 apply to all
petitions, hearings, and other administrative proceedings and
activities conducted by FDA. Because information associated with
regulations in parts 12 through 16 is obtained during the conduct of an
official administrative action as described under 5 CFR 1320.4, we
account only for burden we attribute to initiating the respective
actions.
    The information collection also includes burden associated with
general meeting requests and correspondence submitted to FDA under
Sec.  10.65 (21 CFR 10.65), as well as general submissions associated
with Sec.  10.115 (21 CFR 10.115) which provides for public
participation in the development of Agency guidance documents through
requests to our Dockets Management Staff. Most burden attributable to
recommendations found in FDA guidance documents is accounted for within
information collection request approvals respective to the topic-
specific guidance document; however here we are accounting for burden
associated with general public submissions as described in Sec.
10.115(f)(3).
    The information collection also includes burden that may be
associated with the procedural guidance document, ``Citizen Petitions
and Petitions for Stay of Action Subject to Section 505(q) of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act'' (September 2019), available for
download from our website at https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents/citizen-petitions-and-petitions-stay-action-subject-section-505q-federal-food-drug-and-cosmetic-act. The guidance document provides information regarding our
current thinking on interpreting section 505(q) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(q)) and includes procedural
instruction on submitting certain citizen petitions and petitions for
stay of FDA action. The guidance document also describes how FDA
interprets the provisions of section 505(q) requiring that (1) a
petition include a certification and (2) supplemental information or
comments on a petition include a verification. It also addresses the
relationship between the review of petitions and pending abbreviated
new drug applications (ANDAs), 505(b)(2) applications, and 351(k)
applications for which a decision on approvability has not yet been
made.
    In the Federal Register of February 7, 2023 (88 FR 7981), we
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. No comments were received. On our own
initiative, however we are revising the information collection to
include requests for FDA speakers. As communicated on our website at
https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/contacts-requesting-fda-speaker, FDA receives thousands of requests each year
from trade associations and industry-based groups for speakers to
participate in external meetings, conferences, and workshops. To
facilitate the processing of these requests and direct them
appropriately to determine participation, we have developed web-based
templates and questionnaires, and have established dedicated points of
contact throughout the Agency. We have therefore revised the estimated
burden for the information collection as follows:

\1\ There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of
  information.
\2\ New drug applications.
\3\ Biologics license applications.

    Based on submissions to FDA's Division of Dockets Management since
our last evaluation of the information collection, we have made
adjustments to burden estimates associated with the individual
activities that correspond to the applicable provisions.
    We have also added 3,900 responses and 663 hours, annually, to
reflect burden we believe is associated with requests to FDA for
speaker participation at an external Agency event, assuming an average
burden of 10 minutes for each request. As a result of these
adjustments, the information collection reflects an annual increase in
responses of 3,119 and an annual decrease in hours of 3,360.

    Dated: June 7, 2023.

Associate Commissioner for Policy.
