SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and its
implementing regulations, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
hereby announces that it is seeking renewal of the following currently
approved information collection activities. Before submitting these
information collection requirements (ICRs) for clearance by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB), FRA is soliciting public comment on
specific aspects of the activities identified below.

DATES: Comments must be received no later than March 11, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments on any or all of the following
proposed activities by mail to either: Mr. Robert Brogan, Office of
Safety, Planning and Evaluation Division, RRS-21, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 25, Washington, DC

<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or to Ms. Toone at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
Please refer to the assigned OMB control number in any correspondence
submitted. FRA will summarize comments received in response to this
notice in a subsequent notice and include them in its information
collection submission to OMB for approval.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Robert Brogan, Office of Planning
and Evaluation Division, RRS-21, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200
New Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 25, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone:
(202) 493-6292) or Ms. Kimberly Toone, Office of Information
Technology, RAD-20, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Ave. SE., Mail Stop 35, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202) 493-
6132). (These telephone numbers are not toll-free.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA),
Public Law 104-13, Sec.  2, 109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised
at 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to provide 60-days notice to the public
for comment on information collection activities before seeking
approval for reinstatement or renewal by OMB. 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A);
5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), 1320.10(e)(1), 1320.12(a). Specifically, FRA
invites interested respondents to comment on the following summary of
proposed information collection activities regarding (i) whether the
information collection activities are necessary for FRA to properly
execute its functions, including whether the activities will have
practical utility; (ii) the accuracy of FRA's estimates of the burden
of the information collection activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to determine the estimates; (iii) ways
for FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information
being collected; and (iv) ways for FRA to minimize the burden of
information collection activities on the public by automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology (e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses). See 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)(I)-(iv); 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1)(I)-(iv). FRA believes that soliciting public comment will
promote its efforts to reduce the administrative and paperwork burdens
associated with the collection of information mandated by Federal
regulations. In summary, FRA reasons that comments received will
advance three objectives: (i) Reduce reporting burdens; (ii) ensure
that it organizes information collection requirements in a ``user
friendly'' format to improve the use of such information; and (iii)
accurately assess the resources expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C. 3501.
    Below is a brief summary of the currently approved ICRs that FRA
will submit for clearance by OMB as required under the PRA:
    Title: Passenger Equipment Safety Standards.
    OMB Control Number: 2130-0544.
    Abstract: The information gained from daily inspections is used to
detect and correct equipment problems so as to prevent collisions,
derailments, and other occurrences involving railroad passenger
equipment that cause injury or death to railroad employees, railroad
passengers, or to the general public; and to mitigate the consequences
of any such occurrences, to the extent that they cannot be prevented.
The information provided promotes passenger train safety by ensuring
requirements are met for railroad equipment design and performance;
fire safety; emergency systems; the inspection, testing, and
maintenance of passenger equipment; and other provisions for the safe
operation of railroad passenger equipment.
    Affected Public: Businesses.
    Respondent Universe: 27 railroads.

primarily as bacteriocides, microbiocides, fungicides, algaecides,
slimacides, virucides, miticides and insecticides.  For purpose of this
re-registration eligibility document, the three chemicals included under
the general classification are: tributyltin oxide (PC Code 083001),
tributyltin benzoate (PC Code 083106), and tributyltin maleate (PC Code
083118).   Examples of some of the primary uses sites in which TBTO
containing products are found include:  agricultural premises and
equipment; oilfield/petrochemical injection water systems; industrial
recirculating water cooling systems; animal kennels, medical premises;
material preservation (textiles, metalworking fluids, plastics,
construction materials, etc); and non-pressure treated wood
preservation.

	Each chemical is identified by an individual CAS number, so product
chemistry information is provided separately for each individual CAS
number.  The values presented in this review have been obtained from the
best available data (in house, EPI Suite, chemfinder, ect.) and can be
further refined with input from the registrants involved in this RED
case.

Chemical Identification for CAS # 4027-18-3

There are two CAS numbers affiliated with TBT Maleate, and these are CAS
#4027-18-3 and CAS #14275-57-1.  However, the first number represents
the “mono” form whereas the second represents the “bis” form.
Historically, the registrations affiliated with TBTM were identified
with CAS #14275-57-1 (bis).  A letter was submitted by the Registrant to
correct this identification because the TBTM active ingredient is the
“mono” form, CAS #4027-18-.  This proposed correction was accepted
by the Agency in 2001 and for this reason, CAS#4027-18-3 was executed in
EPA’s EPISuite Model.

Common Name:		Tributyltin Maleate

Chemical Name:		tri-n-butyltin maleate

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
pesticides discussed in this document, compared to the general
population.

II. What action is the Agency taking?

    EPA is announcing its receipt of several pesticide petitions filed
under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA),
21 U.S.C. 346a, requesting the establishment or modification of
regulations in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in
or on various food commodities. The Agency is taking public comment on
the requests before responding to the petitioners. EPA is not proposing
any particular action at this time. EPA has determined that the
pesticide petitions described in this document contain the data or
information prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2), 21 U.S.C.
346a(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the
submitted data at this time or whether the data support granting of the
pesticide petitions. After considering the public comments, EPA intends
to evaluate whether and what action may be warranted. Additional data
may be needed before EPA can make a final determination on these
pesticide petitions.
    Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of each of the petitions
that are the subject of this document, prepared by the petitioner, is
included in a docket EPA has created for each rulemaking. The docket
for each of the petitions is available at http://www.regulations.gov.
    As specified in FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), EPA
is publishing notice of the petitions so that the public has an
opportunity to comment on these requests for the establishment or
modification of regulations for residues of pesticides in or on food
commodities. Further information on the petitions may be obtained
through the petition summaries referenced in this unit.

tolerance in 40 CFR 180.1240 to include residues of the fungicide and
nematocide thymol in or on raw agricultural commodities or processed
food. The petitioner believes no analytical method is needed because an
exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of thymol is
being requested; therefore, the requirement to provide an analytical
method for detecting and measuring the levels of pesticide residue is
not applicable. Contact: BPPD.

New Tolerance Exemption for Inert (Except PIPS)

    PP IN-11098. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2018-0203). Spring Trading Company (203
Dogwood Trail, Magnolia, TX 77354) on behalf of Sasol Chemicals (USA)

876065-86-0) when used as an inert ingredient (solvent) in pesticide
formulations applied to growing crops and or to raw agricultural
commodities after harvest under 40 CFR 180.910 and applied to animals
under 40 CFR 180.930. The petitioner believes no analytical method is
needed because it is not required for an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance. Contact: RD.

New Tolerance Exemptions for Non-Inerts (Except PIPS)

    1. PP 8F8681. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2018-0522). Eden Research plc, 6 Priory

22192), requests to establish an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the fungicide eugenol in
or on raw agricultural commodities or processed food. The petitioner
believes no analytical method is needed because an exemption from the
requirement of a tolerance for residues of eugenol is being requested;
therefore, the requirement to provide an analytical method for
detecting and measuring the levels of pesticide residue is not
applicable. Contact: BPPD.
    2. PP 8F8690. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2016-0073). LAM International Corp., 117
South Parkmont St., Butte, MT 59701, requests to establish an exemption
from the requirement of a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of
the nematocide Purpureocillium lilacinum strain PL11 in or on all food
commodities. The petitioner believes no analytical method is needed
because, when used as proposed, Purpureocillium lilacinum strain PL11
would not result in residues that are of toxicological concern.
Contact: BPPD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would amend the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface at Baudette International Airport, Baudette, MN, to
support instrument flight rule operations at this airport.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as
they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 8, 2019, and effective
September 15, 2019. FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending the Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 6.6-mile (decreased
from a 7.4-mile) radius of Baudette International Airport, Baudette,
MN; and updating the geographic coordinates of the airport to coincide
with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    This action is the result of an airspace review caused by the
decommissioning of the Baudette VOR, which provided navigation
information for the instrument procedures this airport, as part of the
VOR MON Program.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11D, dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15,
2019, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
    FAA Order 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and

Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
