II. Background and Statutory Findings

    In the Federal Register of December 21, 2005 (70 FR 75807) (FRL-
7748-3), EPA issued a notice pursuant to section 408(d)(2) of Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a, as amended by the
Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) (Public Law 104-107) announcing the
filing of a pesticide petition (PP 5F6982), by ArchAngel, LLC, 636
Hampshire St., Suite 208, Quincy, IL 62301. EPA did not receive any
public comments in response to this petition. The petition requested
that 40 CFR part 180 be amended to exempt from the requirement of a
tolerance residues of the bactericide/fungicide copper sulfate
pentahydrate when applied as a bactericide/fungicide in or on meat, fat
and meat by-products of cattle, sheep, hogs, goats, horses, poultry,
milk and eggs when applied as a bactericide/fungicide to animal
premises and bedding. Various copper containing substances, including
copper sulfate pentahydrate, have been exempted from tolerance
requirements for numerous uses. 40 CFR 180.1021 exempts the listed
copper compounds when applied, among other things, to growing crops as
well as shellfish, meat, milk, poultry, eggs, and irrigated crops.
    Section 408(c)(2)(A)(i) of the 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(c)(2)(A)(ii) 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. Pursuant to section 408(c)(2)(B), in
establishing or maintaining in effect an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance, EPA must take into account the factors set forth in
section 408(b)(2)(C), which 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. 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 copper sulfate pentahydrate are discussed in this
unit.
    There is adequate information available to characterize the
toxicity of the copper ion. Copper is ubiquitous in nature and is a
necessary nutritional element for both animals (including humans) and
plants. Copper is found naturally in the food we eat including fruits,
vegetables, meats and seafood. It is found in the water we drink, the
air we breathe and in our bodies themselves. Some of the environmental
copper is due to direct modification of the environment by man such as
mining and smelting of the natural ore. It is one of the elements found
essential to life. The National Academy of Science establishes
recommended daily allowances (RDAs) of vitamins and minerals for the
diet. The RDA for copper ranges from approximately 400 micrograms per
day ([mu]g/d) in young children to 900 [mu]g/d in adults. Additionally,
over-the-counter dietary supplements containing copper at levels
ranging from 0.33 milligram (mg) to 3 mg are available for individuals
with low levels of copper. The copper ion is present in the adult human
body with nearly two-thirds of the body copper content located in the
skeleton and muscle. The liver is the primary organ for the maintenance
of plasma copper concentrations.
    Oral ingestion of excessive amounts of the copper ion from
pesticidal uses including the proposed use is unlikely. Copper
compounds are irritating to the gastric mucosa. Ingestion of large
amounts of copper results in prompt emesis. This protective reflex
reduces the amount of copper ion available for absorption into the
human body. Additionally, at high levels humans are also sensitive to
the taste of copper. Because of this organoleptic property, oral
ingestions would also serve to limit high doses.
    Only a small percentage of ingested copper is absorbed, and most of
the absorbed copper is excreted. The human body appears to have
efficient mechanisms in place to regulate total body copper. The copper
ion occurs naturally in food and the metabolism of copper is well
understood. The Agency has conducted a risk assessment in connection
with the development and issuance of the Reregistration Eligibility
Decision Document for Copper (EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0558; Human Health
Chapter). No endpoints of toxicology concern were identified for risk
assessment purposes for a number of reasons. One of the foremost of
these is the fact that copper is a required nutritional element for
both plants and animals. Indeed, current available data and literature
studies indicate that there is a greater risk from the deficiency of
copper intake than from excess intake. Copper also occurs naturally in
a number of food items including fruits, vegetables, meats and seafood.
Although there is little known about the minimum levels of dietary
copper necessary to cause evidence of adverse effect, this situation is
likely due to the existence of an effective homeostatic mechanism that
is involved in the dietary intake of copper and that protects man from
excess body copper. Given that copper is ubiquitous and is routinely
consumed as part of the daily diet, it is unlikely that with the
current exposure pattern there would be any long term adverse effects.
    Finally, sulfate has little toxic effect and is routinely used in
medicine as a cathartic when combined with magnesium or sodium, the
only adverse manifestation from this use being dehydration if water
intake is concurrently limited.

IV. Aggregate Exposures

    In examining aggregate exposure, FFDCA section 408 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 chemicals, the Agency considers the toxicity of the chemical
in conjunction with possible exposure to residues of the chemical
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, an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance may be
established.

A. Dietary Exposure

    Copper is ubiquitous in nature and is a necessary nutritional
element for both animals (including humans) and plants. It is one of
several elements found essential to life. The human body must have
copper to stay healthy. In fact, for a variety of biochemical processes
in the body to operate normally, copper must be part of our daily diet.
Copper is needed for certain critical enzymes to function in the body.
Actually, too little copper in the body can actually lead to disease.
    1. Food. The main source of copper for infants, children, and
adults, regardless of age, is the diet. Copper is typically present in
mineral rich foods like vegetables (potato, legumes (beans and peas),
nuts (peanuts and pecans), grains (wheat and rye), fruits (peaches and
raisins), and chocolate in levels that range from 0.3 to 3.9 ppm. A
single day's diet may contain 10 mg or more of copper. The daily
recommended allowance of copper for adult nutritional needs is 2 mg. It
is not likely that the approval of this petition would significantly
increase exposure over that of the existing levels of copper.
    2. Drinking water exposure. Copper is a natural element found in
the earth's crust. As a result, most of the world's surface water and
ground water that is used for drinking purposes contains copper. The
actual amount varies from region to region, depending on how much is
present in the earth, but in almost all cases the amount of copper in
water is extremely low. Naturally occurring copper in drinking water is
safe for human consumption, even in rare instances where it is at
levels high enough to impart a metallic taste to the water. Residues of
copper in drinking water are regulated under the Safe Drinking Water
Act. A Maximum Contaminant Level Goal of 1.3 ppm has been set by the
Agency for copper. According to the National Research Council's
Committee on Copper in Drinking Water, this level is ``set at a
concentration at which no known or expected adverse health effects
occur and for which there is an adequate margin of safety.'' The Agency
believes that this level of protection would not cause any potential
health problems, i.e. stomach and intestinal distress, liver and kidney
damage and anemia. It is not likely that the approval of this petition
would significantly increase exposure over that of the existing levels
of copper.

B. Other Non-Occupational Exposure

    Copper compounds have many uses on crops (food as well as non-food)
and ornamentals as a fungicide.
    Dermal exposure. Given the prevalence of copper in the environment,
no significant dermal exposure increase above current levels would be
expected from the non-occupational use of copper sulfate pentahydrate.
    Inhalation exposure. Air concentrations of copper are relatively
low. A study based on several thousand samples assembled by EPA's
Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory showed copper levels
ranging from 0.003 to 7.32 micrograms per cubic meter. Other studies
indicated that air levels of copper are much lower. The Agency does not
expect the air concentrations of copper to be significantly affected by
the use of copper sulfate pentahydrate.

V. Cumulative Effects

    The Agency believes that copper has no significant toxicity to
humans and that no cumulative adverse effects are expected from long-
term exposure to copper salts including copper sulfate pentahydrate.
For the purposes of this tolerance action, EPA has not assumed that
copper compounds have a common mechanism of toxicity with other
substances.

VI. Determination of Safety for U.S. Population, Infants and Children

    Copper sulfate pentahydrate is considered as Generally Recognized
as Safe (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). EPA has also
exempted various copper compounds from the requirement of a tolerance
when used as aquatic herbicides (40 CFR 180.1021). Copper compounds,
including copper sulfate pentahydrate, are also exempt from the
requirements of a tolerance when applied to growing crops when used as
a plant fungicide in accordance with good agricultural practices (40
CFR 180.1021).
    1. U.S. population. Copper is a component of the human diet and an
essential element. In addition, no acute or chronic dietary end points
were selected because no endpoints of toxicological concerns have been
identified for risk assessment purposes. Use of copper sulfate
pentahydrate is not expected to increase the amount of copper in the
diet as a result of its use on growing crops and post harvest use.
    2. Infants and children. Copper is also a component of the diet of
infants and children and also an essential element of their diet. Since
no endpoints of concern have been identified, EPA has not conducted a
quantitative risk assessment for copper sulfate pentahydrate. The
Agency has also determined that the special FQPA safety factor to
protect infants and children was not needed since there are no toxicity
endpoints or uncertainty surrounding exposure.
    Based on the information in this preamble, EPA concludes that there
is a reasonable certainty of no harm to the general population,
including infants and children, from aggregate exposure to copper
sulfate pentahydrate residues.

VII. 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 Tolerance Exemptions

    Copper sulfate pentahydrate has been exempted from the requirement
of a tolerance under 40 CFR 180.1021 (c) when applied to growing crops
or to raw agricultural commodities after harvest.

C. International Tolerances

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

VIII. Conclusions

    Based on the information contained in the document, EPA concludes
that there is a reasonable certainty of no harm from aggregate exposure
to residues of copper sulfate pentahydrate. According, EPA finds that
the exemption for residues in or on meat, fat and meat by-products of
cattle, sheep, hogs, goats, horses and poultry, milk and eggs when
applied as a bactericide/fungicide to animal premises and bedding will
be safe.

IX. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This final rule establishes an exemption from the tolerance
requirement under FFDCA section 408(d) 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 rule has been exempted from review under Executive
Order 12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not subject
to Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355,
May 22, 2001). 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., or 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). 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);
or OMB review or any Agency action under Executive Order 13045,
entitled Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and
Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). 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). Since
tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis of a
petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the exemption 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. The Agency hereby certifies that this rule will not
have significant negative economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. In addition, the Agency has determined that this action
will not have a substantial direct effect on 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, as specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism
(64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to
develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input
by State and local officials in the development of regulatory policies
that have federalism implications.'' ``Policies that have federalism
implications'' is defined in the Executive order to include regulations
that have ``substantial direct effects 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.'' This final rule directly regulates growers, food

processors, food handlers and food retailers, not States. This action
does not alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions
of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). For these same reasons, the Agency has
determined that this rule does not have any ``tribal implications'' as
described in Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 6,
2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by tribal officials in
the development of regulatory policies that have tribal implications.''
``Policies that have tribal implications'' is defined in the Executive
order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct effects on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and the Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.''
This rule will not have substantial direct effects on tribal
governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, as specified in
Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to
this rule.

X. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this 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).

14 CFR Part 95

[Docket No. 30949; Amdt. No. 512]

IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This amendment adopts miscellaneous amendments to the required
IFR (instrument flight rules) altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes for which a
minimum or maximum en route authorized IFR altitude is prescribed. This
regulatory action is needed because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System. These changes are designed to provide for the
safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, April 3, 2014.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Harry Hodges, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AMCAFS-420), Flight Technologies and Programs
Division, Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration,
Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd. Oklahoma
City, OK. 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082 Oklahoma City, OK. 73125)
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95) amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all aircraft in flight over a
specified route or any portion of that route, as well as the changeover
points (COPs) for Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes as
prescribed in part 95.

The Rule

    The specified IFR altitudes, when used in conjunction with the
prescribed changeover points for those routes, ensure navigation aid
coverage that is adequate for safe flight operations and free of
frequency interference. The reasons and circumstances that create the
need for this amendment involve matters of flight safety and
operational efficiency in the National Airspace System, are related to
published aeronautical charts that are essential to the user, and
provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace. In
addition, those various reasons or circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next scheduled charting and publication
date of the flight information to assure its timely availability to the
user. The effective date of this amendment reflects those
considerations. In view of the close and immediate relationship between
these regulatory changes and safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting this amendment are impracticable
and contrary to the public interest and that good cause exists for
making the amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    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.
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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Information Collection Request Submitted to OMB for Review and
Approval; Comment Request; Public Water System Supervision Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted
an Information Collection Request (ICR) for the Public Water System
Supervision Program (EPA ICR No. 0270.46, OMB Control No. 2040-0090) to
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA; 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.). This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently

approved through October 31, 2015. Public comments were previously
requested via the Federal Register (80 FR 17040) on March 31, 2015,
during a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments. A fuller description of the ICR is provided
in this renewal notice, including its estimated burden and cost to the
public. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not
required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

DATES: Additional comments may be submitted on or before November 27,
2015.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, referencing Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-
OW-2011-0443, to (1) EPA online using www.regulations.gov (our
preferred method), by email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or by mail to EPA
Docket Center, Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200
Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460, and (2) OMB via email to
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Address comments to OMB Desk Officer for
EPA.
    EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in the
public docket without change including any personal information
provided, unless the comment includes profanity, threats, information
claimed to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kevin Roland, Drinking Water
Protection Division, Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water,

Washington, DC 20460; telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>: fax number: 202-
564-3755; email address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents which explain in detail
the information that EPA will be collecting are available in the public
docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at
www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West,
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC. The telephone
number for the Docket Center is<PHONE_NUMBER>. For additional
information about EPA's public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: The Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) Program ICR
examines public water systems, primacy agencies (i.e., states and
tribes with primary enforcement authority) and tribal operator
certification provider burden, and costs for ``cross-cutting''
recordkeeping and reporting requirements (i.e., the burden and costs
for complying with drinking water information requirements that are not
associated with contaminant-specific rulemakings). The following
activities have recordkeeping and reporting requirements that are
mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 142: The Consumer
Confidence Report Rule (CCR), the Variance and Exemption Rule (V/E
Rule), General State Primacy Activities, the Public Notification Rule
(PN) and Proficiency Testing Studies for Drinking Water Laboratories.
The information collection activities for both the Operator
Certification and the Capacity Development Program are driven by the
grant withholding and reporting provisions under sections 1419 and
1420, respectively, of the Safe Drinking Water Act. The information
collection for the Tribal Operator Certification Program is driven by
grant eligibility requirements outlined in the Drinking Water
Infrastructure Grant Tribal Set-Aside Program Final Guidelines and the
Tribal Drinking Water Operator Certification Program Guidelines.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: New and existing public water
systems and primacy agencies.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory for compliance with
40 CFR parts 141 and 142.
    Estimated number of respondents: 151,724 (total).
    Frequency of response: Varies by requirement.
    Total estimated burden: 3,769,213 hours (per year). Burden is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b)
    Total estimated cost: $187,603,000 (per year), includes $42,103,000
in operation and maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 344,195 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This decrease is a result of removing burden
associated with variances, exemptions and constructed conveyances to
reflect no new activity in these categories; updating relevant baseline
information for each rule with the most current and accurate
information available (e.g., public water system inventory); and,
updating burden to incorporate the results of consultation with
stakeholders. Where appropriate and available, estimated violation and
other associated rates have also been updated to reflect current
information on rule compliance.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
