Q3: Will EPA exempt leachate 

recirculation piping, temporary 

horizontal collection trenches, and 

leachate sump/riser connections from 

the oxygen/nitrogen, temperature, and 

pressure requirements under NSPS 

subpart WWW? 

A3: No. The facility states that these 

gas collection systems are not part of the 

Landfill NSPS collection and control 

system. However, it appears that these 

gas collection systems would be part of 

the Landfill NSPS collection and control 

system if they are collecting gas from an 

area, cell, or group of cells if the initial 

solid waste has been in place for a 

period of five years or more (if active), 

or two years or more (if closed or at final 

grade). Although an exemption will not 

be granted, the facility may still propose 

an alternative monitoring procedure. 

Q4: Will EPA allow the facility to 

exclude dangerous areas from the 

surface monitoring? 

A4: 40 CFR 60.753(d) allows for 

dangerous areas to be excluded. These 

areas will be reviewed by IDNR as part 

of the facility’s surface monitoring 

design plan. 

Q5: Will EPA allow the facility to 

apply the surface monitoring 

requirement only to closed portions of 

the landfill? 

A5: No. Surface monitoring is 

required in all areas that collection 

systems are required. 

Q6: Will EPA allow the facility to 

widen the spacing between surface 

monitoring intervals from 30 meters to 

60 meters in areas that will have a final 

cover in place with a geomembrane 

component? 

A6: No. 

Q7: Will EPA allow higher oxygen 

levels in gas wellheads if temperatures 

are maintained below 38 degrees C? 

A7: Yes. Higher values may be set if 

the facility demonstrates that the 

elevated parameters do not cause fires 

or significantly inhibit anaerobic 

decomposition by killing methanogens. 

Q8: Will EPA allow the facility to 

place the surface monitoring probe inlet 

as close as possible, 5 to 10 centimeters 

from the ground, but further away when 

there are materials that could clog the 

probe tip? 

A8: No. 

Q9: Will EPA allow a variance to the 

10-day window that 40 CFR 

60.755(c)(4)(ii) allows to adjust the 

cover and/or collection system? 

A9: No. Because this is not an 

alternative monitoring request, EPA 

Region 7 does not have the authority to 

allow this. 

Q10: Will EPA allow the facility to 

not perform surface monitoring during 

the winter quarter? 

A10: No. The facility is apparently 

concerned that the flame ionization 

detector will not work unless the 

ambient air is above freezing. There are 

days during each quarter that are warm 

enough to do surface monitoring. The 

facility has not proposed any alternative 

monitoring. 

Q11: Will EPA allow the facility to 

record the flow to the flare instead of 

the presence of a pilot flame? 

A11: No. The regulations require 

continuous records of the flare pilot 

flame. EPA notes that it does 

understand that the lack of flame at the 

flare is not necessarily a violation. 

Q12: Will EPA approve a final cover 

design that includes the use of a 

geomembrane or synthetic cover and 

that may have positive pressure at 

wellheads under certain conditions? 

A12: Yes. Positive pressure under 

these circumstances is allowed by 40 

CFR 60.753(b)(2). Pressure limits should 

be included in the design plan for 

approval by IDNR. 

Abstract for [0400034] 

Q: Will EPA approve the use of 

custom fuel sulfur monitoring schedules 

under 40 CFR part 60, subpart GG, for 

natural gas-fired turbines at three Basin 

Electric Power Cooperative facilities in 

Wyoming? 

A: Yes. Based on an EPA directive 

dated August 14, 1987, EPA will 

approve the use of custom fuel sulfur 

monitoring schedules for natural gasfired turbines at the facilities in 

question. 

Abstract for [0400035] 

Q: Will EPA approve the use of 

custom fuel sulfur monitoring schedules 

under NSPS subpart GG, for two natural 

gas-fired emergency turbine generators 

at the LaBarge Black Canyon 

Dehydration Facility in Sublette County, 

Wyoming? 

A: Yes. Based on an EPA directive 

dated August 14, 1987, EPA will 

approve the use of custom fuel sulfur 

monitoring schedules for natural gasfired turbines at the facility in question. 

Abstract for [0400036] 

Q: The California Parks and 

Recreation Department owns and 

operates an air curtain incinerator that 

burns clean wood for the purpose of 

clearing dead trees at state parks. Is this 

unit subject to NSPS subpart CCCC? 

A: No. The activity of this unit is 

neither commercial nor industrial, and 

does not burn commercial and 

industrial waste as defined in 40 CFR 

60.2265.

1. Oral comments. Oral comments 

presented at the meetings should not be 

repetitive of previously submitted oral 

or written comments. Although requests 

to present oral comments are accepted 

until the date of the meeting (unless 

otherwise stated), to the extent that time 

permits, interested persons may be 

permitted by the Chair of FIFRA SAP to 

present oral comments at the meeting. 

Each individual or group wishing to 

make brief oral comments to FIFRA SAP 

is strongly advised to submit their 

request to the DFO listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT no later 

than noon, eastern time, November 24, 

2004, in order to be included on the 

meeting agenda. The request should 

identify the name of the individual 

making the presentation, the 

organization (if any) the individual will 

represent, and any requirements for 

audiovisual equipment (e.g., overhead 

projector, 35mm projector, chalkboard). 

Oral comments before FIFRA SAP are 

limited to approximately 5 minutes 

unless prior arrangements have been 

made. In addition, each speaker should 

bring 30 copies of his or her comments 

and presentation slides for distribution 

to FIFRA SAP at the meeting.

2. Written comments. Although 

submission of written comments are 

accepted until the date of the meeting 

(unless otherwise stated), the Agency 

encourages that written comments be 

submitted, using the instructions in 

Unit I., no later than noon, eastern time, 

November 19, 2004, to provide FIFRA 

SAP the time necessary to consider and 

review the written comments. There is 

no limit on the extent of written 

comments for consideration by FIFRA 

SAP. Persons wishing to submit written 

comments at the meeting should contact 

the DFO listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT and submit 30 

copies.

3. Seating at the meeting. Seating at 

the meeting will be on a first-come 

basis. Individuals requiring special 

accommodations at this meeting, 

including wheelchair access and 

assistance for the hearing impaired, 

should contact the DFO at least 5 

business days prior to the meeting using 

the information under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT so that 

appropriate arrangements can be made.

4. Request for nominations of 

prospective candidates for service as ad 

hoc members of the FIFRA SAP for this 

meeting. As part of a broader process for 

developing a pool of candidates for each 

meeting, the FIFRA SAP staff routinely 

solicit the stakeholder community for 

nominations of prospective candidates 

for service as ad hoc members of the 

FIFRA SAP. Any interested person or 

organization may nominate qualified 

individuals to be considered as 

prospective candidates for a specific 

meeting. Individuals nominated for this 

meeting should have expertise in one or 

more of the following areas: Toxicology; 

physiologically-based pharmacokinetic 

(PBPK) modeling; exposure modeling 

(dietary and residential) including 

Lifeline, Cares and DEEM/Calendex; 

and probabilistic risk assessment. 

Nominees should be scientists who have 

sufficient professional qualifications, 

including training and experience, to be 

capable of providing expert comments 

on the scientific issues for this meeting. 

Nominees should be identified by name, 

occupation, position, address, and 

telephone number. Nominations should 

be provided to the DFO listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT on or 

before October 29, 2004. The Agency 

will consider all nominations of 

prospective candidates for this meeting 

that are received on or before this date. 

However, final selection of ad hoc 

members for this meeting is a 

discretionary function of the Agency.

The selection of scientists to serve on 

the FIFRA SAP is based on the function 

of the panel and the expertise needed to 

address the Agency’s charge to the 

panel. No interested scientists shall be 

ineligible to serve by reason of their 

membership on any other advisory 

committee to a Federal department or 

agency or their employment by a 

Federal department or agency (except 

the EPA). Other factors considered 

during the selection process include 

availability of the potential panel 

member to fully participate in the 

panel’s reviews, absence of any conflicts 

of interest or appearance of lack of 

impartiality, independence with respect 

Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 201 / Tuesday, October 19, 2004 / Notices 61485

to the matters under review, and lack of 

bias. Though financial conflicts of 

interest, the appearance of lack of 

impartiality, lack of independence, and 

bias may result in disqualification, the 

absence of such concerns does not 

assure that a candidate will be selected 

to serve on the FIFRA SAP. Numerous 

qualified candidates are identified for 

each panel. Therefore, selection 

decisions involve carefully weighing a 

number of factors including, the 

candidates’ areas of expertise and 

professional qualifications, and 

achieving an overall balance of different 

scientific perspectives on the panel. In 

order to have the collective breadth of 

experience needed to address the 

Agency’s charge for this meeting, the 

Agency anticipates selecting 

approximately 12 ad hoc scientists. 

If a prospective candidate for service 

on the FIFRA SAP is considered for 

participation in a particular session, the 

candidate is subject to the provisions of 

5 CFR part 2634, Executive Branch 

Financial Disclosure, as supplemented 

by the EPA in 5 CFR part 6401. As such, 

the FIFRA SAP candidate is required to 

submit a Confidential Financial 

Disclosure Form for Special 

Government Employees Serving on 

Federal Advisory Committees at EPA 

(EPA Form 3110–48 5–02) which shall 

fully disclose, among other financial 

interests, the candidate’s employment, 

stocks, and bonds, and where 

applicable, sources of research support. 

EPA will evaluate the candidate’s 

financial disclosure form to assess that 

there are no financial conflicts of 

interest, no appearance of lack of 

impartiality, and no prior involvement 

with the development of the primary 

documents under consideration before 

the candidate is considered further for 

service on the FIFRA SAP.

Those who are selected from the pool 

of prospective candidates will be asked 

to attend the public meetings and to 

participate in the discussion of key 

issues and assumptions at these 

meetings. In addition, they will be asked 

to review and to help finalize the 

meeting minutes. The list of FIFRA SAP 

members participating at this meeting 

will be posted on the FIFRA SAP web 

site or may be obtained by contacting 

the PIRIB at the address or telephone 

number listed in Unit I.

II. Background

A. Purpose of the FIFRA SAP

Amendments to FIFRA enacted 

November 28, 1975 (7 U.S.C. 136w(d)), 

include a requirement under section 

25(d) of FIFRA that notices of intent to 

cancel or reclassify pesticide 

registrations pursuant to section 6(b)(2) 

of FIFRA, as well as proposed and final 

forms of regulations pursuant to section 

25(a) of FIFRA, be submitted to a SAP 

prior to being made public or issued to 

a registrant. In accordance with section 

25(d) of FIFRA, the FIFRA SAP is to 

have an opportunity to comment on the 

health and environmental impact of 

such actions. The FIFRA SAP also shall 

make comments, evaluations, and 

recommendations for operating 

guidelines to improve the effectiveness 

and quality of analyses made by Agency 

scientists. Members are scientists who 

have sufficient professional 

qualifications, including training and 

experience, to be capable of providing 

expert comments as to the impact on 

health and the environment of 

regulatory actions under sections 6(b) 

and 25(a) of FIFRA. The Deputy 

Administrator appoints seven 

individuals to serve on the FIFRA SAP 

for staggered terms of 4 years, based on 

recommendations from the National 

Institutes of Health and the National 

Science Foundation.

Section 104 of FQPA (Public Law 

104–170) established the FQPA Science 

Review Board (SRB). These scientists 

shall be available to the FIFRA SAP on 

an ad hoc basis to assist in reviews 

conducted by the FIFRA SAP.

B. Public Meeting

The FIFRA SAP will meet to consider 

and review the N-methyl carbamate 

cumulative risk assessment (CRA) 

strategies, and methodologies for 

exposure assessment. The FQPA of 1996 

amended the laws under which EPA 

evaluates the safety of pesticide residues 

in food. Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) and (vi) 

of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 

Act, as amended by FQPA, specifies that 

when determining the safety of a 

pesticide chemical, EPA shall base its 

risk assessment on aggregate exposure 

(i.e., total dietary including drinking 

water, residential, and other nonoccupational exposure) and available 

information concerning the cumulative 

effects to human health that may result 

from exposure to pesticides and other 

substances that have a common 

mechanism of toxicity. 

EPA is currently preparing a CRA for 

the N-methyl carbamate class of 

pesticides. The specific N-methyl 

carbamate pesticides which will be 

included in this assessment are the 

following: Aldicarb; carbaryl; 

carbofuran; formetanate hydrochloride; 

methiocarb; methomyl; oxamyl; 

pirimicarb; propoxur; and thiodicarb 

(see Federal Register notice dated 

February 4, 2004 (69 FR 5340) (FRL–

7334–4)). As was previously done for 

the CRA for the organophosphorus 

pesticides, EPA will convene several 

meetings of the FIFRA SAP to review a 

number of science issues which are 

crucial to the development and 

completion of the N-methyl carbamate 

CRA.

The first meeting that is being 

announced in the Federal Register

notice will be held on December 3, 

2004, and will deal with general 

strategies, and methodologies being 

considered for use in this CRA and 

discuss some of the overall issues to be 

covered at a subsequent meeting of the 

SAP scheduled for February 2005.

A separate Federal Register notice 

will be issued later announcing the 

February meeting. In addition to general 

proposed strategies and methodologies 

for the N-methyl carbamate CRA, 

specific topics to be discussed at the 

December 3, 2004, SAP meeting 

include, sophisticated PBPK modeling, 

as well as more conventional relativepotency based approaches, the interface 

between the exposure models and the 

PBPK models, and proposals to revise 

current exposure models to evaluate 

exposure periods of less than 24 hours.

C. FIFRA SAP Meeting Minutes

The FIFRA SAP will prepare meeting 

minutes summarizing its 

recommendations to the Agency in 

approximately 60 days after the 

meeting. The meeting minutes will be 

posted on the FIFRA SAP web site or 

may be obtained by contacting the PIRIB 

at the address or telephone number 

listed in Unit I.
