Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 38601 

do discuss the effects of this rule 

elsewhere in this preamble. 

F. Environment 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Department of Homeland Security 

Management Directive 023–01 and 

Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, 

which guide the Coast Guard in 

complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, (42 

U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have 

determined that this action is one of a 

category of actions that do not 

individually or cumulatively have a 

significant effect on the human 

environment. This rule involves a safety 

zone lasting less than two hours that 

will prohibit entry on the Ohio River 

between mile 43.2 and mile 43.6, during 

the barge-based firework event. It is 

categorically excluded from further 

review under paragraph 34 (g) of Figure 

2–1 of the Commandant Instruction. An 

environmental analysis checklist 

supporting this determination and a 

Categorical Exclusion Determination are 

available in the docket where indicated 

under ADDRESSES. We seek any 

comments or information that may lead 

to the discovery of a significant 

environmental impact from this rule. 

G. Protest Activities 

The Coast Guard respects the First 

Amendment rights of protesters. 

Protesters are asked to contact the 

person listed in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section to 

coordinate protest activities so that your 

message can be received without 

jeopardizing the safety or security of 

people, places or vessels.

II. Summary of Petitioned-For 

Tolerance 

In the Federal Register of August 26, 

2015 (80 FR 51759) (FRL–9931–74), 

EPA issued a document pursuant to 

FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 

346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of a 

pesticide petition (PP) 5E8371 by 

Interregional Research Project Number 4 

(IR–4), 500 College Road East, 

Princeton, NJ 08540. The petition 

requested that 40 CFR part 180 be 

amended by establishing tolerances for 

residues of the insecticide 

chlorantraniliprole, 3-bromo-N-[4- 

chloro-2-methyl-6-[(methylamino)- 

carbonyl]phenyl]-1-(3-chloro-2- 

pyridinyl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamide, 

in or on nut, tree, group 14–12 at 0.02 

parts per million (ppm); and fruit, stone, 

group 12–12 at 2.5 ppm. This petition 

additionally requested that 40 CFR 

180.628 be amended by revising the 

existing tolerance in or on artichoke, 

globe from 4.0 ppm to 2.0 ppm; and 

hop, dried cones from 90 ppm to 40 

ppm. Upon establishment of the 

tolerances associated with (PP) 5E8371, 

IR–4 requests to remove the following 

existing tolerances in 40 CFR 180.628: 

Nut, tree, group 14 at 0.04 ppm; 

pistachio at 0.04 ppm; fruit, stone, 

group 12–12, except cherry, chickasaw 

plum, and damson plum at 4.0 ppm; 

cherry, sweet at 2.0 ppm; cherry, tart at 

2.0 ppm; plum, chickasaw at 2.0 ppm; 

and plum, damson at 2.0 ppm. That 

document referenced a summary of the 

petition prepared on behalf of IR–4 by 

DuPont Crop Protection, the registrant, 

which is available in the docket EPA– 

HQ–OPP–2013–0235 at http://

www.regulations.gov. 

There were no comments received in 

response to the notice of filing. 

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 FFDCA section 

408(b)(2)(D), 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 

chlorantraniliprole, consistent with 

FFDCA section 408(b)(2). 

In the Federal Register of February 7, 

2014 (79 FR 7397) (FRL–9905–56), EPA 

established tolerances for residues of 

chlorantraniliprole in or on fruit, stone, 

group 12–12, except cherry, chickasaw 

plum, and damson plum at 4.0 ppm; 

onion, green subgroup 3–07B at 3.0 

ppm; peanut, hay at 90 ppm; and peanut 

at 0.06 ppm. EPA is relying upon those 

risk assessments and the findings made 

in the February 7, 2014 Federal Register 

document in support of this action. The 

toxicity profile of chlorantraniliprole 

has not changed. Moreover, because 

EPA is simply lowering the previously 

assessed tolerance levels (where the 

EPA assumed tolerance-level residues 

for all crops and including the tree nut 

group 14–12 at 0.02 ppm), the previous 

dietary estimates also do not change as 

a result of this action. Therefore, the 

previously published risk assessments 

that supported the establishment of 

those tolerances remain valid. 

The petitioner requested to lower 

currently established tolerances for 

residues of chlorantraniliprole in/on 

hops dried cones from 90 ppm to 40 

ppm and globe artichoke from 4.0 ppm 

to 2.0 ppm in order to harmonize with 

the Codex maximum residue limits 

(MRLs). Crop field trial studies were 

submitted for hops and globe artichoke 

that indicate lowering these tolerances 

are appropriate and will support the 

existing U.S. registrations. The 

petitioner also requested to lower the 

existing tolerance of 4.0 ppm for stone 

fruit group 12–12, except cherry, 

chickasaw plum, and damson plum and 

remove the cherry, sweet; cherry, tart; 

plum, chickasaw; and plum, damson 

tolerances established at 2.0 ppm and 

establish a tolerance for stone fruit crop 

group 12–12 at 2.5 ppm to align with 

the Canadian MRL. EPA has determined 

that the existing residue chemistry data 

support this new tolerance level, which 

is lower than the current tolerances for 

some commodities and higher for 

others. Further, the petitioner requested 

to convert the tree nut crop group 14 to 

tree nut crop group 14–12 and to 

remove the tolerance for pistachio to 

lower the tolerance for the group (and 

for the now-included pistachio 

commodity) from 0.40 ppm to 0.02 ppm 

to harmonize the U.S. tolerance with the 

Codex and Canadian MRLs. EPA has 

determined that the existing residue 

chemistry data support the request for 

crop group conversion and for lowering 

the tolerance level. 


sradovich on DSK3TPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 38603 

Furthermore, EPA issued a final rule 

in the Federal Register of September 18, 

2013, concerning the addition of certain 

commodities to the 40 CFR 180.628. The 

EPA determined that the tolerance level 

for egg should be increased from 0.2 

ppm to 1.0 ppm, and EPA assessed egg 

using the tolerance of 1.0 ppm in 2013 

as well as in February 2014. This was 

inadvertently omitted from the table in 

the 2013 Final Rule. Therefore, this 

document corrects that omission. 

Therefore, EPA relies upon the 

findings made in the February 7, 2014, 

Federal Register document, as well as 

the review of the additional globe 

artichoke and dried cones hop field trial 

data and existing residue chemistry data 

in support of this rule. 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 

chlorantraniliprole residues. 

For a detailed discussion of the 

aggregate risk assessments and 

determination of safety for these 

tolerances, please refer to the February 

7, 2014, Federal Register document and 

its supporting documents, available at 

http://www.regulations.gov in docket ID 

number EPA–HQ–OPP–2013–0235. 

Further information about EPA’s 

determination that an updated risk 

assessment was not necessary may be 

found in the document, 

‘‘Chlorantraniliprole (DPX–E2Y45): 

Petition for Updating Crop Group 

Tolerances for Nut Tree Group 14–12 

and Fruit Stone Group 12–12, and 

Amending Established Tolerances for 

Chlorantraniliprole in/on Artichoke 

Globe and Hop Dried Cones.’’ in docket 

ID number EPA–HQ–OPP–2013–0235. 

IV. Other Considerations 

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology 

Adequate enforcement methodology, 

liquid chromatography mass 

spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC/

MS/MS); Method uPont-11374, 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: (410) 305–2905; 

email address: residuemethods@

epa.gov. 

B. International Residue Limits 

In making its tolerance decisions, EPA 

seeks to harmonize U.S. tolerances with 

international standards whenever 

possible, consistent with U.S. food 

safety standards and agricultural 

practices. EPA considers the 

international maximum residue limits 

(MRLs) established by the Codex 

Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as 

required by FFDCA section 408(b)(4). 

The Codex Alimentarius is a joint 

United Nations Food and Agriculture 

Organization/World Health 

Organization food standards program, 

and it is recognized as an international 

food safety standards-setting 

organization in trade agreements to 

which the United States is a party. EPA 

may establish a tolerance that is 

different from a Codex MRL; however, 

FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that 

EPA explain the reasons for departing 

from the Codex level. 

Based on the data supporting the 

petition, EPA has harmonized 

chlorantraniliprole tolerances in or on 

artichoke, globe at 2.0 ppm; hop, dried 

cones at 40 ppm; and nut, tree, group 

14–12 at 0.02 ppm with established 

Codex MRLs. 

C. International Trade Considerations 

In this rulemaking, EPA is reducing 

the tolerances for hops, dried cones 

from 90 ppm to 40 ppm; globe artichoke 

from 4.0 ppm to 2.0 ppm; lowering the 

existing tolerance of 4.0 ppm for stone 

fruit group 12–12, except cherry, 

chickasaw plum, and damson plum and 

establishing a lower tolerance for stone 

fruit crop group 12–12 at 2.5 ppm; and 

converting and lowering the tree nut 

crop group 14 and pistachio tolerances 

to tree nut crop group 14–12 at 0.40 

ppm to 0.02 ppm. The petitioner 

requested these reductions in order to 

harmonize with Codex and Canadian 

MRLs. The reduction is appropriate 

based on available data and residue 

levels resulting from registered use 

patterns. 

In accordance with the World Trade 

Organization’s (WTO) Sanitary and 

Phytosanitary Measures Agreement, 

EPA notified the WTO of the request to 

revise these tolerances on September 14, 

2015 as WTO notification G/SPS/N/

USA/2778. In this action, EPA is 

allowing the existing higher tolerances 

to remain in effect for 6 months 

following the publication of this rule in 

order to allow a reasonable interval for 

producers in the exporting countries to 

adapt to the requirements of these 

modified tolerances. On December 14, 

2016, those existing higher tolerances 

will expire, and the new reduced 

tolerances for artichoke, globe; fruit, 

stone, group 12–12; hop, dried cones; 

and nut, tree, group 14–12 will remain 

to cover residues of chlorantraniliprole 

on those commodities. Before that date, 

residues of chlorantraniliprole on those 

commodities would be permitted up to 

the higher tolerance levels; after that 

date, residues of chlorantraniliprole on 

artichoke, globe; the commodities 

contained in stone fruit group 12–12 

and tree nut group 14–12; and hop, 

dried cones will need to comply with 

the new lower tolerance levels. This 

reduction in tolerance is not 

discriminatory; the same food safety 

standard contained in the FFDCA 

applies equally to domestically 

produced and imported foods. 

V. Conclusion 

Therefore, tolerances are established 

for residues of chlorantraniliprole, 3- 

bromo-N-[4-chloro-2-methyl-6- 

[(methylamino)-carbonyl]phenyl]-1-(3- 

chloro-2-pyridinyl)-1H-pyrazole-5- 

carboxamide, in or on in or on 

artichoke, globe at 2.0 ppm; fruit, stone, 

group 12–12 at 2.5 ppm; hop, dried 

cones at 40 ppm; and nut, tree, group 

14–12 at 0.02 ppm. Upon establishment 

of the aforementioned tolerances, the 

Agency is removing the tolerances for 

cherry, sweet at 2.0 ppm; cherry, tart at 

2.0 ppm; plum, chickasaw at 2.0 ppm; 

and plum, damson at 2.0 ppm as they 

are subsumed within the newly 

established group 12–12 tolerances. The 

Agency is adding an expiration date of 

December 14, 2016 to the existing 

tolerances for artichoke, globe at 4.0 

ppm; nut, tree, group 14 at 0.04 ppm; 

pistachio at 0.04 ppm; fruit, stone, 

group 12–12, except cherry, chickasaw 

plum, and damson plum at 4.0 ppm; 

and hop, dried cones at 90 ppm. 

Residues of chlorantraniliprole will be 

covered by these higher tolerances until 

the expiration date, after which time, 

they will need to comply with the lower 

tolerances being established today. 

Finally, the Agency is amending the 

existing tolerance for egg (increasing the 

tolerance level from 0.2 ppm to 1.0 

ppm) to finalize its efforts to establish 

that tolerance in the Federal Register of 

September 18, 2013. 

VI. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

This action establishes tolerances 

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 action 

has been exempted from review under 

Executive Order 12866, this action 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 


sradovich on DSK3TPTVN1PROD with RULES
38604 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 

Children from Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, 

April 23, 1997). This action 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 FFDCA section 408(d), such as 

the tolerances 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 action 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 FFDCA 

section 408(n)(4). 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 action. In addition, this action 

does not impose any enforceable duty or 

contain any unfunded mandate as 

described under Title II of the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 

1501 et seq.). 

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 

(NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). 

VII. Congressional Review Act 

Pursuant to the Congressional Review 

Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 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 the rule in the Federal 

Register. This action is not a ‘‘major 

rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
