II. Petition for Tolerance

    In the Federal Register of April 16, 2008 (73 FR 20633) (FRL-8359-
1), EPA issued a notice pursuant to section 408(d)(3) of FFDCA, 21
U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of a pesticide petition (PP
7F7208) by Bayer CropScience, 2 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research Triangle
Park, NC 27709. The petition proposed tolerances be established for
residues of the herbicide thiencarbazone-methyl, per se, in or corn,
field, grain at 0.01 parts per million (ppm); corn, sweet, kernels at
0.01 ppm; wheat, grain at 0.01 ppm; and soybean, seed at 0.01 ppm;
thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolites BYH 18636-MMT-glucoside and
BYN 18636-N-desmethyl [methyl 4-(([(3-methoxy-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-
1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)carbonyl]amino)sulfonyl)-5-methylthiophene-3-
carboxylate], calculated as the parent compound, in or on corn, field,
forage at 0.03 ppm; corn, sweet, forage at 0.15 ppm; corn, field,
stover at 0.04 ppm; corn, sweet stover at 0.04 ppm; corn, sweet, kernel
plus cob with husks removed at 0.01 ppm; wheat, hay at 0.02 ppm; wheat,
straw at 0.02 ppm; wheat, forage at 0.09 ppm; soybean, forage at 0.04
ppm; soybean, hay at 0.15 ppm, and cotton gin by-products at 0.15 ppm;
and thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolite BYH 18636-MMT, calculated
as the parent compound, in or on milk at 0.01 ppm; cattle, meat at 0.01

    Tolerance levels and commodity expressions have been revised for
corn, field, forage; corn, field, stover; corn, sweet, forage; corn,
sweet, stover; wheat, forage; wheat, hay; wheat, straw; cotton gin
byproducts; soybean, seed; and livestock commodities as a result of the
review of the actual residue data and so that the listed commodities

metabolite BYH 18636-MMT-glucoside, calculated as the parent compound,
in or on soybean, forage at 0.04 ppm and soybean, hay at 0.15 ppm. The
reasons for these changes are explained in Unit IV.C.

III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety

    Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish 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....''
    Consistent with section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, and the factors
specified in section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, EPA has reviewed the
available scientific data and other relevant information in support of
this action. EPA has sufficient data to assess the hazards of and to
make a determination on aggregate exposure for the petitioned-for
tolerances for residues of thiencarbazone-methyl, per se, in or on
corn, field, forage at 0.04 ppm; corn, field, grain at 0.01 ppm; corn,
field, stover at 0.02 ppm; corn, pop, grain at 0.01 ppm; corn, pop,
stover at 0.01 ppm; corn, sweet, forage at 0.05 ppm; corn, sweet,
kernel plus cob with husks removed at 0.01 ppm; corn, sweet, stover at
0.05 ppm; wheat, forage at 0.10 ppm; wheat, grain at 0.01 ppm; wheat,
hay at 0.01 ppm; and wheat, straw at 0.01 ppm; combined residues of
thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolite BYH 18636-MMT, calculated as
the parent compound, in or on cattle, meat at 0.02 ppm; cattle, meat
byproducts at 0.02 ppm; goat, meat at 0.02 ppm; goat, meat byproducts
at 0.02 ppm; horse, meat at 0.02 ppm; horse, meat byproducts at 0.02
ppm; milk at 0.02 ppm; sheep, meat at 0.02 ppm; and sheep, meat
byproducts at 0.02 ppm; and indirect or inadvertent combined residues
of thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolite BYH 18636-MMT-glucoside,
calculated as the parent compound, in or on soybean, forage at 0.04 ppm
and soybean, hay at 0.15 ppm. EPA's assessment of exposures and risks
associated with establishing tolerances follows.

A. Toxicological Profile

    EPA has evaluated the available toxicity data and considered its
validity, completeness, and reliability as well as the relationship of
the results of the studies 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.
    Thiencarbazone-methyl has low toxicity in acute toxicity and
irritation assessments and is not a skin sensitizer. In subchronic and
chronic oral toxicity studies, the critical target organ for
thiencarbazone-methyl is the urinary tract including the kidney,
bladder and ureters. Toxicity in these structures from the formation of
calculi that are formed by the deposition of the parent and are
associated with the sulfonamide structure and these are evident in the
dog, considered the most sensitive species at 179 milligrams/kilograms/
day (mg/kg/day) in the chronic study. In mice, at 599 mg/kg/day in
males and 758 mg/kg/day in females, doses where there was formation of
calculi in the urothelial system, thiencarbazone-methyl was associated
with transitional cell epithelium tumors in the urinary bladder in one
male and three females and in the prostatic urethra in one male. The
battery of mutagenicity/genetic toxicity studies did not indicate a
mutagenicity concern. Since the neoplasia occurred only in the high
dose group, thiencarbazone-methyl was classified as ``Not likely to be
a carcinogen to humans at doses that do not cause urothelial
cytotoxicity.''
    Specific information on the studies received and the nature of the
adverse effects caused by thiencarbazone-methyl as well as the no-
observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) and the lowest-observed-adverse-
effect-level (LOAEL) from the toxicity studies can be found at http://
www.regulations.gov in document Human Health Risk Assessment at pages
56-59 in docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0132.

B. Toxicological Endpoints

    For hazards that have a threshold below which there is no
appreciable risk, a toxicological point of departure (POD) is
identified as the basis for derivation of reference values for risk
assessment. The POD may be defined as the NOAEL in the toxicology study
identified as appropriate for use in risk assessment. However, if a
NOAEL cannot be determined, the LOAEL or a Benchmark Dose (BMD)
approach is sometimes used for risk assessment. Uncertainty/safety
factors (UFs) are used in conjunction with the POD to take into account
uncertainties inherent in the extrapolation from laboratory animal data
to humans and in the variations in sensitivity among members of the
human population as well as other unknowns. Safety is assessed for
acute and chronic dietary risks by comparing aggregate food and water
exposure to the pesticide to the acute population adjusted dose (aPAD)
and chronic population adjusted dose (cPAD). The aPAD and cPAD are
calculated by dividing the POD by all applicable UFs. Aggregate short-
term, intermediate-term, and chronic-term risks are evaluated by
comparing 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. This latter value is referred to as the
Level of Concern (LOC).
    For non-threshold risks, the Agency assumes that any amount of
exposure will lead to some degree of risk. Thus, the Agency estimates
risk in terms of the probability of an occurrence of the adverse effect
greater than that expected in a lifetime. For more information on the
general principles EPA uses in risk characterization and a complete
description of the risk assessment process, see http://www.epa.gov/
pesticides/factsheets/riskassess.htm.
    A summary of the toxicological endpoints for thiencarbazone-methyl
used for human risk assessment can be found at http://
www.regulations.gov in document Human Health Risk Assessment at pages
25-26 in docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0132.

C. Exposure Assessment

    1. Dietary exposure from food and feed uses. In evaluating dietary
exposure to thiencarbazone-methyl, EPA considered exposure under the
petitioned-for tolerances. EPA assessed dietary exposures from in food
as follows:
    i. Acute exposure. Quantitative acute dietary exposure and risk
assessments are performed for a food-use pesticide,

if a toxicological study has indicated the possibility of an effect of
concern occurring as a result of a 1-day or single exposure.
    No such effects were identified in the toxicological studies for
thiencarbazone-methyl; therefore, a quantitative acute dietary exposure
assessment is unnecessary.
    ii. Chronic exposure. In conducting the chronic dietary exposure
assessment EPA used the dietary model Dietary Exposure Evaluation
Model-Food Commodity Intake Database (DEEM-FCID). The modeled exposure
estimates for the chronic assessment are based on tolerance level
residues, assuming 100% of the crops are treated, and include the
highest modeled estimated drinking water concentrations (EDWCs).
    iii. Cancer. Thiencarbazone-methyl is not likely to be carcinogenic
to humans at doses that do not cause urothelium cytotoxicity. The
chronic reference dose (cRfD) of 117 mg/kg/day is adequately protective
of any cancer or pre-cancerous effects seen in carcinogenicity studies
in rats and mice. The formation of the low incidence of the
transitional cell tumors of the bladder in both sexes and urethra/
prostrate in males that develop at 599 mg/kg/day in males and 758 mg/
kg/day in females in mice is considered to be related to secondary
effect of the urothelial toxicity (irritation) and regenerative
proliferation associated with the formation of urinary tract crystals/
calculi. This is commonly seen for bladder carcinogensis in rodents for
non-genotoxic chemicals of the sulfonamide class. No tumors were seen
in rats.
    iv. Anticipated residue and percent crop treated (PCT) information.
Tolerance level residues and 100 PCT were assumed for all food
commodities.
    2. Dietary exposure from drinking water. The Agency used screening
level water exposure models in the dietary exposure analysis and risk
assessment for thiencarbazone-methyl in drinking water. These
simulation models take into account data on the physical, chemical, and
fate/transport characteristics of thiencarbazone-methyl. Further
information regarding EPA drinking water models used in pesticide
exposure assessment can be found at http://www.epa.gov/oppefed1/models/
water/index.htm.
    Based on the First Index Reservoir Screening Tool (FIRST) and
Screening Concentration in Ground Water (SCI-GROW) models, the EDWCs of
thiencarbazone-methyl for chronic exposures are estimated to be 0.36
parts per billion (ppb) for surface water and 0.00079 ppb for ground
water.
    Modeled estimates of drinking water concentrations were directly
entered into the dietary exposure model.
    For chronic dietary risk assessment, the water concentration of
value 0.36 ppb was used to assess the contribution to drinking water.
    3. From 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).
    Thiencarbazone-methyl is currently pending registration for the
following uses that could result in residential exposures: Application
to residential turfgrass and recreational sites. EPA assessed
residential exposure using the following assumptions: Residential
handlers may receive short-term dermal and inhalation exposure when
mixing, loading, and applying the herbicide. Residential post-
application exposure via the inhalation route is expected to be
negligible; however, dermal exposure is likely for adults and children
entering treated lawns. Toddlers may also experience exposure via
incidental non-dietary ingestion during post-application activities on
treated turf. Residential short-term dermal, inhalation, and incidental
oral exposures were assessed using the same NOAEL (159 mg/kg/day). One
hundred percent absorption via the dermal and inhalation exposure
routes was assumed, resulting in very conservative estimates of risk
(MOEs).
    4. Cumulative effects from substances with a common mechanism of
toxicity. 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.''
    Although thiencarbazone-methyl has in common with other sulfonamide
chemicals the ability to cause urinary tract calculi and in some cases
tumors in the urinary tract at high doses, EPA has not made a common
mechanism finding for thiencarbazone-methyl such that cumulative risk
assessment based on chemicals with a common mechanism is necessary for
thiencarbazone-methyl and other sulfonamides. With thiencarbazone-
methyl, the formation of calculi in the urinary tract results from the
precipitation of thiencarbazone-methyl once it reaches saturation in
the animal's system. Precipitation of thiencarbazon-methyl is a
physical/chemical process and not a mechanism of toxicity. Exposures to
thiencarbazone-methyl and other sulfonamides, are not additive with
regard to the formation of urinary tract calculi at anticipated
exposure levels. At higher doses, each sulfonamide will form calculi
independently of the other by a separate physical/chemical process. At
lower doses, near the anticipated exposure levels, calculi will not
form even if there is exposure to multiple sulfonamides because
sulfonamides will not influence the formation of precipitates by each
other. It would be appropriate to add exposures in assessing
precipitate formation only if the sulfonamides interacted somehow
during crystal formation. 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://www.epa.gov/pesticides/cumulative/.

D. Safety Factor for Infants and Children

    1. In general. Section 408(b)(2)(c) of FFDCA provides that EPA
shall apply an additional tenfold (10X) 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 based on reliable data that a
different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. This
additional margin of safety is commonly referred to as the FQPA safety
factor (SF). In applying this provision, EPA either retains the default
value of 10X, or uses a different additional safety factor when
reliable data available to EPA support the choice of a different
factor.
    2. Prenatal and postnatal sensitivity. There is no indication of
increased susceptibility of rat or rabbit offspring to thiencarbazone-
methyl as indicated by the rat and rabbit developmental toxicity
studies and the rat reproduction study. There is no concern for
increased susceptibility to offspring.
    3. Conclusion. 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:
    i. The toxicity database for thiencarbazone-methyl is complete,
except for immunotoxicity studies. EPA

began requiring functional immunotoxicity testing of all food and non-
food use pesticides on December 26, 2007. Since the requirement went
into effect well after this tolerance petition was submitted, these
studies are not yet available for thiencarbazone-methyl. In the absence
of specific immunotoxicity studies, EPA has evaluated the available
toxicity data for thiencarbazone-methyl and determined that an
additional database uncertainty factor is not needed to account for
potential immunotoxicity. EPA's determination is based on the following
considerations.
    a. EPA considered the entire toxicity database for thiencarbazone-
methyl for adverse effects on the thymus and spleen for possible
indications of immunotoxicity and determined that there were no changes
in these structures indicative of immunotoxicity. There were also no
changes in leucocytes or differential leucocyte counts to suggest an
effect on the immune system.
    b. Thiencarbazone-methyl does not belong to a class of chemicals
that would be expected to be immunotoxic.
    c. Therefore, based on the above considerations, EPA does not
believe that conducting immunotoxicity testing will result in a NOAEL
less than the NOAEL of 117 mg//kg/day already established for
thiencarbazone-methyl, and an additional factor (UFDB) for database
uncertainties is not needed to account for potential immunotoxicity.
    ii. There is no indication that thiencarbazone-methyl is a
neurotoxic chemical and there is no need for a developmental
neurotoxicity study or additional UFs to account for neurotoxicity.
    iii. There is no evidence that thiencarbazone-methyl 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.
    iv. There are no residual uncertainties identified in the exposure
databases. The dietary food exposure assessments were performed based
on 100 PCT and tolerance-level residues. EPA made conservative
(protective) assumptions in the ground water and surface water modeling
used to assess exposure to thiencarbazone-methyl in drinking water. EPA
used similarly conservative assumptions to assess postapplication
exposure of children as well as incidental oral exposure of toddlers.
These assessments will not underestimate the exposure and risks posed
by thiencarbazone-methyl.

E. Aggregate Risks and Determination of Safety

    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 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,
thiencarbazone-methyl 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
thiencarbazone-methyl from food and water will utilize 0.1% of the cPAD
for children 1-2 yrs. and children 3-5 yrs. and <0.1% for all other
population subgroups.
    3. Short-term risk. Short-term aggregate exposure takes into
account short-term residential exposure plus chronic exposure to food
and water (considered to be a background exposure level).
    Thiencarbazone-methyl is currently pending registration for uses
that could result in short-term residential exposure and the Agency has
determined that it is appropriate to aggregate chronic exposure through
food and water with short-term residential exposures to thiencarbazone-
methyl.
    Using the exposure assumptions described in this unit for short-
term exposures, EPA has concluded the combined short-term food, water,
and residential exposures aggregated result in aggregate MOEs of 18,700
to adults and 13,500 to children.
    4. Intermediate-term risk. Intermediate-term aggregate exposure
takes into account intermediate-term residential exposure plus chronic
exposure to food and water (considered to be a background exposure
level).
    Although intermediate-term residential exposure could result from
the use of thiencarbazone-methyl, no toxicological effects resulting
from intermediate-term dosing were observed. Therefore, the aggregate
risk is the sum of the risk from food and water and will not be greater
than the chronic aggregate risk.
    5. Aggregate cancer risk for U.S. population. Thiencarbazone-methyl
is not likely to be carcinogenic to humans. The cRfD of 117 mg/kg/day
is adequately protective of any cancer or pre-cancerous effects seen in
carcinogenicity studies in rats and mice and as the chronic risk
assessment shows estimated exposure to thiencarbazone-methyl is well
below the cRfD.
    6. Determination of safety. 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 thiencarbazone-methyl residues.

IV. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

    A high performance liquid chromotography/mass spectrometry/mass
spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS) method was submitted for the determination of
residues of thiencarbazone-methyl and two metabolites in/on samples of
crop commodities. The validated limit of quantification (LOQ) is 0.01
ppm for each analyte in each matrix. A HPLC/MS/MS method was submitted
for the determination of residues of thiencarbazone-methyl in livestock
commodities. The LOQ is 0.01 ppm.
    Adequate enforcement methodology is available to enforce the
tolerance expression. The method may be requested from: Chief,
Analytical Chemistry Branch, Environmental Science Center, 701 Mapes
Rd., Ft. Meade, MD 20755-5350; telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; e-mail
address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
B. International Residue Limits

    EPA established tolerances are harmonized with Maximum Residue
Limits (MRLs) established in Canda, except for tolerances on livestock
commodities, livestock feedstuffs, and soybeans (as a rotational crop).

C. Revisions to Petitioned-For Tolerances

    Tolerance levels and commodity expressions have been revised for
corn, field, forage; corn, field, stover; corn, sweet, forage; corn,
sweet, stover; wheat, forage; wheat, hay; wheat, straw; and livestock
commodities as a result of the

review of the actual residue data and so that the listed commodities
agree with current EPA commodity terms. EPA concluded that there is no
need to establish indirect or inadvertent tolerance levels in or on
cotton gin byproducts or soybean, seed because the submitted field
rotational crop data demonstrated that residues were not likely to be
found on these commodities when the plant back intervals specified on
the product labels are followed. EPA determined that the residue(s) of
concern for both risk assessment and tolerance expression is
thiencarbazone-methyl for corn and wheat commodities, thiencarbazone-
methyl and BYH 18636-MMT-glucoside for soybean rotational crop
commodities, and thiencarbazone-methyl and BYH 18636-MMT for livestock
commodities.

V. Conclusion

    Therefore EPA is establishing tolerances for residues of
thiencarbazone-methyl, in or on corn, field, forage at 0.04 ppm; corn,
field, grain at 0.01 ppm; corn, field, stover at 0.02 ppm; corn, pop,
grain at 0.01 ppm; corn, pop, stover at 0.01 ppm; corn, sweet, forage
at 0.05 ppm; corn, sweet, kernel plus cob with husks removed at 0.01
ppm; corn, sweet, stover at 0.05 ppm; wheat, forage at 0.10 ppm; wheat,
grain at 0.01 ppm; wheat, hay at 0.01 ppm; and wheat, straw at 0.01
ppm; combined residues of thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolite BYH
18636-MMT, calculated as the parent compound, in or on cattle, meat at
0.02 ppm; cattle, meat byproducts at 0.02 ppm; goat, meat at 0.02 ppm;
goat, meat byproducts at 0.02 ppm; horse, meat at 0.02 ppm; horse, meat
byproducts at 0.02 ppm; milk at 0.02 ppm; sheep, meat at 0.02 ppm; and
sheep, meat byproducts at 0.02 ppm; and indirect or inadvertent
combined residues of thiencarbazone-methyl and its metabolite BYH
18636-MMT-glucoside, calculated as the parent compound, in or on
soybean, forage at 0.04 ppm and soybean, hay at 0.15 ppm.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This final rule establishes tolerances 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).

VII. 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

[Release No. 34-67844; File No. SR-NYSEArca-2012-75]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE Arca, Inc.; Order Approving a
Proposed Rule Change Amending NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37(c) to
Provide That the Tracking Order Process Is Available Only for Orders
That Are Eligible To Route To an Away Market

September 12, 2012.

I. Introduction

    On July 11, 2012, NYSE Arca, Inc. (``Exchange'' or ``NYSE Arca'')
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''),
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to
amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37(c) to provide that the Tracking
Order Process is available only for orders that are eligible to route
to an away market. The proposed rule change was published for comment
in the Federal Register on July 30, 2012.\3\ The Commission received no
comment letters regarding the proposed rule change. This order approves
the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67490 (July 24,
2012), 77 FR 44702 (``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposal

    The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37(c) to
specify that only orders that are eligible to route to an away market
would participate in the Tracking Order Process. This proposed rule
change would make Rule 7.37(c) consistent with the manner by which the
Exchange operates the Tracking Order Process.
    NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37 sets forth the Order Execution process
at the Exchange. The Tracking Order Process is the fourth step in the
Order Execution process, and is preceded by the Directed Order Process,
Display Order Process and Working Order Process.\4\ Currently, Rule
7.37(c) states that if an order has not been executed in its entirety
in one of the processes preceding the Tracking Order Process, such
order will enter the Tracking Order Process for potential matching and
execution against Tracking Orders.\5\ Rule 7.37(c) does not specify
that among the orders that are not fully executed in the processes
preceding the Tracking Order Process, it is only those that are
eligible to route to an away market that participate in the Tracking
Order Process. The proposed rule change would add this specification to
Rule 7.37(c) to make the rule consistent with the operation of the
Tracking Order Process.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See NYSE Arca Equities Rule 7.37.
    \5\ Tracking Orders are undisplayed, priced round lot orders
that are eligible for execution in the Tracking Order Process
against orders equal to or less than the aggregate size of the
Tracking Order interest at that price. See NYSE Arca Equities Rule
7.31(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also proposes to delete provisions in current rule
7.37(c) stating that any portion of an order received from another
market center or market participant is cancelled immediately, and an
incoming order that is designated as an ISO does not interact in the
Tracking Order Process.

According to the Exchange, these provisions are obviated by the
proposed clarification in Rule 7.37(c) that only routable order types
participate in the Tracking Order Process.

III. Discussion and Commission Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange.\6\
In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\7\ which requires, among
other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be
designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments
to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national
market system, and, in general, to protect investors and the public
interest; and are not designed to permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers or dealers. The Commission notes that the
Exchange believes that the proposed rule change removes impediments to
and perfects the mechanism of a free and open market by providing
transparency regarding the type of orders that are eligible to interact
in the Tracking Order Process and eliminating obsolete rule text. Based
on the Exchange's statements, the Commission believes that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has
considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \8\ The Commission notes that it recently approved a proposal by
EDGA Exchange, Inc. to add a new order type called the Route Peg
Order, which is a non-displayed limit order that, similar to the
Tracking Order, is eligible to execute against only routable orders.
See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 67726 (August 24, 2012), 77
FR 52771 (August 30, 2012) (SR-EDGA-2012-28).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\9\ that the proposed rule change (SR-NYSEArca-2012-75) be, and it
hereby is, approved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\10\

[Docket No. FAA-2020-0985; Project Identifier 2018-SW-064-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Helicopters Deutschland GmbH

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is withdrawing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
that proposed to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) that would
have applied to certain Airbus Helicopters Deutschland GmbH Model
EC135P1, EC135T1, EC135P2, EC135T2, EC135P2+, EC135T2+, EC135P3, and
EC135T3 helicopters. The NPRM was prompted by a deviation from a new
manufacturing process and a determination that the deviation resulted
in a reduced life limit (service life limit) for certain tail rotor
(TR) blades. The NPRM would have required a reduced life limit for
those TR blades and require a new life limit for certain other TR
blades. Since issuance of the NPRM, the FAA has determined that the
deviation from the new manufacturing process does not reduce the life
limit of certain TR blades and that a new life limit is not needed for
certain other blades. Accordingly, the NPRM is withdrawn.

DATES: As of April 2, 2021, the proposed rule, which was published in
the Federal Register on November 9, 2020 (85 FR 71286), is withdrawn.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The FAA has issued an NPRM that proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39 by
adding an AD that would apply to the specified products. The NPRM was
published in the Federal Register on November 9, 2020 (85 FR 71286).
The NPRM was prompted by a deviation from a new manufacturing process
and a determination that the deviation resulted in a reduced life limit
(service life limit) for certain TR blades.
    The NPRM proposed to require a reduced life limit for those TR
blades and require a new life limit for certain other TR blades.

Actions Since the NPRM was Issued

    Since issuance of the NPRM, the FAA determined that the deviation
from the new manufacturing process does not reduce the life limit of
certain TR blades and that a new life limit is not needed for certain
other blades. Affected parts can continue operation until the normal
life limit with no compensation factor applied to reduce the life of
the part. Therefore, the FAA has determined that AD action is not
appropriate.
    Withdrawal of the NPRM constitutes only such action and does not
preclude the FAA from further rulemaking on this issue, nor does it
commit the FAA to any course of action in the future.

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to comment on the NPRM. The
following presents the comments received on the NPRM and the FAA's
response to each comment.

Request To Withdraw NPRM

    Airbus Helicopters requested that the NPRM be withdrawn. The
commenter stated that EASA would be cancelling EASA AD 2018-0168, dated
July 27, 2018, which prompted this NPRM. The commenter also noted that
Airbus Helicopters service information was revised to remove the
reduced life limit for the TR blades.
    The FAA agrees with the commenter's request. Since publication of
the NPRM, EASA has issued EASA AD 2018-0168R1, dated December 18, 2020
(EASA AD 2018-0168R1). EASA has determined, and the FAA concurs, that
the deviation in the new manufacturing process does not affect the life
limit of the TR blades. Airbus Helicopters has revised the
corresponding service information accordingly. The revised EASA AD
allows continued operation of

the affected parts until the normal life limit. The FAA has determined
that this NPRM is unnecessary and will withdraw this NPRM.

Request To Delay Issuance of the AD

    One commenter requested that the FAA delay issuance of the final
rule because Airbus Helicopters had revised its service information to
restore the original life limits of the TR blades, and based on the
revised service information it would appear that EASA will issue a
revised AD to revise the life limits accordingly. The commenter asked
that the revised EASA AD be taken into account in the final rule.
    The FAA acknowledges the commenter's request. As previously stated,
the FAA has determined that this NPRM is unnecessary and will withdraw
this NPRM.

Request To Include Link To Document Referenced in the NPRM

    One commenter requested that the FAA provide a link in the NPRM to
the EASA AD that is referred to in the NPRM. The commenter stated that
if it is the FAA's new policy to refer to another Civil Aviation
Authority's AD it would be more convenient for operators to have a link
instead of having to search another website.
    The FAA acknowledges the commenter's request. If the FAA would have
issued a final rule, the EASA AD would have been incorporated by
reference. The material that is incorporated by reference in an FAA AD
is available in the AD docket on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating the applicable AD
docket. The AD docket contains the NPRM, any comments received,
material that is incorporated by reference, and other information. As
previously stated, the FAA has determined that this NPRM is unnecessary
and will withdraw this NPRM.

FAA's Conclusions

    Upon further consideration, the FAA has determined that the NPRM is
unnecessary. Accordingly, the NPRM is withdrawn.

Regulatory Findings

    Since this action only withdraws an NPRM, it is neither a proposed
nor a final rule. This action therefore is not covered under Executive
Order 12866, the Regulatory Flexibility Act, or DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973,
Section 2(a)(6), 42 U.S.C. 4002(a)(6), Congress finds it is in the
public interest for persons already living in flood prone areas to have
an opportunity to purchase flood insurance and access to more adequate
limits of coverage to be indemnified for their losses in the event of
future flood disasters. To this end, FEMA established and carries out a
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), which enables interested
persons to purchase insurance against loss resulting from physical
damage to or loss of real or personal property arising from any flood
occurring in the United States. 42 U.S.C. 4011. In carrying out the
NFIP, FEMA operates a call center in conjunction with the FloodSmart
Web site (www.FloodSmart.gov). Together these methods of marketing and
outreach provide the mechanism for current and potential policyholders
to learn more about floods and flood insurance, contact an agent, or
assess their risk. The information collected from callers/visitors is
used to fulfill requests for published materials, email alerts, policy
rates, and agent contact information.
    Additionally, FEMA and the NFIP offer Agents.FloodSmart.gov as a
resource for agents. Upon Web site registration, agents can enroll in
the Agent Referral Program to receive free leads through the consumer
site or the call center as outlined above. This information collection
seeks approval to continue collecting name, address and telephone
number information from: (1) Business and residential property owners
and renters who voluntarily call to request flood insurance information
and possibly an insurance agent referral and, (2) insurance agents
interested in enrolling in the agent referral service.

Amendment of Multiple Air Traffic Service (ATS) Routes; North
Central and Northeast United States

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule, technical amendment.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends multiple high altitude Area Navigation
(RNAV) routes (Q-routes) in the north central and northeast United
States (U.S.) to change 13 fixes identified in the Q-routes to match
waypoint (WP) characterizations contained in the FAA and Canadian
aeronautical database information establishing the WPs. This action
also amends the route termination point and geographic latitude/
longitude position in RNAV route Q-822 to reflect changes made by
Canada as part of its Windsor-Toronto-Montreal (WTM) airspace redesign
effort.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, January 8, 2015. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and
publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On September 26, 2014, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
final rule (79 FR 57758) that amended, removed, and established
multiple ATS routes in the north central and northeast United States to
reflect and accommodate route changes being made in Canadian airspace
as part of Canada's WTM airspace redesign project, and corrected a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) publishing error. The rule also
made a number of changes or corrections deemed necessary following the
NPRM public comment period.
    The FAA now has identified in the rule that the following 13 fixes
in several route descriptions were established in the FAA and Canadian
aeronautical databases as WPs: DUTSH, OH; RICCS, WV; WAYLA, NY; PUPPY,
NY; ARKKK, NY; FABEN, NY; STOMP, NY; POSTS, MI; JOSSY, NY; KRAZZ, NY;
AGNOB, Canada; LORKA, Canada; and ADVIK, Canada.
    Additionally, the final route segment providing cross border
connectivity between the U.S. and Canada for the RNAV route Q-822
description was changed within Canadian airspace by NAV CANADA due to
route realignment requirements. Also in RNAV route Q-822, the TANGU,
Canada, WP was changed to the SINVI, Canada, WP located in a new
geographic latitude/longitude position.
    This rule makes the corrections to be in concert with FAA and
Canadian aeronautical databases.

The Rule

    The FAA is amending Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by modifying RNAV routes Q-29, Q-69, Q-82, Q-84, Q-103, Q-140,
Q-812, Q-818, Q-822, Q-907, Q-935, and Q-937. The RNAV route
modifications correct fix characterizations to match FAA and Canadian
aeronautical database information and support Canadian airspace
redesign changes for routes into and out of the Winsor, Toronto, and
Montreal areas within Canada to ensure safe and efficient across border
connectivity.
    The RNAV route modifications accomplished by this action are
outlined below.

Q-29: Change the ``DUTSH, OH FIX'' to read ``DUTSH, OH WP.''
Q-69: Change the ``RICCS, WV FIX'' to read ``RICCS, WV WP.''
Q-82: Change the ``WAYLA, NY FIX'' to read ``WAYLA, NY WP.''
Q-84: Change the ``PUPPY, NY FIX'' to read ``PUPPY, NY WP.''
Q-103: Change the ``RICCS, WV FIX'' to read ``RICCS, WV WP.''
Q-140: Change the ``ARKKK, NY FIX'' to read ``ARKKK, NY WP.''
Q-812: Change the ``FABEN, NY FIX'' to read ``FABEN, NY WP;'' the
``ARKKK, NY FIX'' to read ``ARKKK, NY WP;'' and the ``STOMP, NY FIX''
to read ``STOMP, NY WP.''
Q-818: Change the ``STOMP, NY FIX'' to read ``STOMP, NY WP.''
Q-822: Change the route title to read ``Q-822 ``Flint, MI (FNT) to
SINVI, Canada;'' the ``PUPPY, NY FIX'' to read ``PUPPY, NY WP;'' and
the ``TANGU, Canada WP (lat. 44[deg]50'58.00'' N., long.
063[deg]58'43.00'' W.)'' to read ``SINVI, Canada WP (lat.
44[deg]48'15.00'' N., long. 064[deg]19'27.00'' W.).''
Q-907: Change the ``POSTS, MI FIX'' to read ``POSTS, MI WP;'' the
``AGNOB, Canada FIX'' to read ``AGNOB, Canada WP;'' the ``LORKA, Canada
FIX'' to read ``LORKA, Canada WP;'' and the ``ADVIK, Canada FIX'' to
read ``ADVIK, Canada WP.''
Q-935: Change the ``JOSSY, NY FIX'' to read ``JOSSY, NY WP;'' and the
``FABEN, NY FIX'' to read ``FABEN, NY WP.''
Q-937: Change the ``TULEG, Canada WP'' to read ``TULEG, Canada FIX;''
and the ``KRAZZ, NY FIX'' to read ``KRAZZ, NY WP.''
Q-951: Change the ``POSTS, MI FIX'' to read ``POSTS, MI WP.''

    High altitude United States RNAV routes (Q-routes) are published in
paragraph 2006 and high altitude Canadian RNAV routes (Q-routes) are
published in paragraph 2007 of FAA Order 7400.9Y dated August 6, 2014,
and effective September 15, 2014, which is incorporated by reference in
14 CFR 71.1. The high altitude United States and Canadian RNAV routes
(Q-routes) listed in this rule will be subsequently published in the
Order.
    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.
Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory
action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule''
under Department of Transportation (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 only affects air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when
promulgated, does not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    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 the
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 modifies the route structure as necessary to preserve the safe
and efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace System.
In addition, as this rule is correcting errors in certain Q routes and
updating RNAV route Q-822 to accommodate changes by Canada that affect
these routes, I find that notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are impractical, unnecessary and not in the public interest.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 311a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.
