SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

‘‘Rules’’ section of this Federal Register, 

EPA is approving Colorado’s SIP 

revision as a direct final rule without 

prior proposal because the Agency 

views this as a noncontroversial SIP 

revision and anticipates no adverse 

comments. A detailed rationale for the 

approval is set forth in the preamble to 

the direct final rule. If EPA receives no 

adverse comments, EPA will not take 

further action on this proposed rule. If 

EPA receives adverse comments, EPA 

will withdraw the direct final rule and 

it will not take effect. EPA will address 

all public comments in a subsequent 

final rule based on this proposed rule. 

EPA will not institute a second 

comment period on this action. Any 

parties interested in commenting must 

do so at this time. Please note that if 

EPA receives adverse comment on an 

amendment, paragraph, or section of 

this rule and if that provision may be 

severed from the remainder of the rule, 

EPA may adopt as final those provisions 

of the rule that are not the subject of an 

adverse comment. See the information 

provided in the Direct Final action of 

the same title which is located in the 

Rules section of this Federal Register.

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

i. Identify the document by docket ID 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

iv. Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

v. If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low-income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticides 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

EPA is announcing its receipt of 

several pesticide petitions filed under 

section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, 

and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), (21 U.S.C. 

346a), requesting the establishment or 

modification of regulations in 40 CFR 

part 180 for residues of pesticide 

chemicals in or on various food 

commodities. The Agency is taking 

public comment on the requests before 

responding to the petitioners. EPA is not 

proposing any particular action at this 

time. EPA has determined that the 

pesticide petitions described in this 

document contain the data or 

information prescribed in FFDCA 

section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not 

fully evaluated the sufficiency of the 

submitted data at this time or whether 

the data support granting of the 

pesticide petitions. After considering 

the public comments, EPA intends to 

evaluate whether and what action may 

be warranted. Additional data may be 

needed before EPA can make a final 

determination on these pesticide 

petitions. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a 

summary of each of the petitions that 

are the subject of this document, 

prepared by the petitioner, is included 

in a docket EPA has created for each 

rulemaking. The docket for each of the 

petitions is available online at http://

www.regulations.gov. 

As specified in FFDCA section 

408(d)(3), (21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3)), EPA is 

publishing notice of the petition so that 

the public has an opportunity to 

comment on this request for the 

establishment or modification of 

regulations for residues of pesticides in 

or on food commodities. Further 

information on the petition may be 

obtained through the petition summary 

referenced in this unit. 

New Tolerance 

1. PP 2F8015. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2012– 

0515). Chemtura Corporation, 199 

Benson Road, Middlebury, CT 06749, 

requests to establish tolerances in 40 

CFR part 180 for residues of the 

insecticide diflubenzuron, N-[[(4- 

chlorophenyl)amino]-carbonyl]-2,6- 

difluorobenzamide (DFB) and its 

metabolites 4-chlorophenylurea (CPU) 

and 4-chloroaniline (PCA), in or on 

Fruit, citrus, Group 10–10 at 3.0 parts 

per million (ppm), and citrus, oil at 32.0 

ppm. Residues of the individual 

analytes are detectable and quantifiable 

using three separate analytical methods. 

Residues of diflubenzuron (DFB) were 

quantitated by liquid chromatography/

tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/

MS), and residues of the metabolites 

4-chlorophenylurea (CPU) and 

4-chloroaniline (PCA) were derivatized 

with HFBA and quantitated by GC/MS. 

(RD) 

2. PP 2F8099. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2012– 

0941). Valent U.S.A. Corporation, 1600 

Riviera Avenue, Suite 200, Walnut 

Creek, CA 94596, requests to establish 

tolerances in 40 CFR part 180 for 

inadvertent residues of the fungicide 

fluopicolide, 2,6-dichloro-N-[3-chloro-5- 

(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridylmethyl]- 

benzamide, as an indicator of combined 

residues of fluopicolide and its 

metabolite, 2,6-dichlorobenzamide 

(BAM), in or on corn, field, forage at 

0.09 ppm; corn, field, grain, at 0.01 

ppm; and corn, field, stover at 0.3 ppm, 

resulting from the proposed use as a 

fungicide. Additional data included in 

the petition, to assess potential dietary 

exposure from P1x and PCA, show no 

inadvertent residues of P1x or PCA in 

the corn grain. Practical analytical 

methods for detecting and measuring 

levels of fluopicolide and its metabolites 

have been developed and validated in/ 

on all appropriate plant and animal 

matrices. An analytical method for 

detecting fluopicolide and BAM in field 

corn matrices has been submitted with 

this petition. (RD) 

3. PP 3E8175. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0428). Interregional Research Project 

Number 4 (IR–4), 500 College Road East, 

Suite 201 W., Princeton, NJ 08540, 

supported in this action by Syngenta 

Crop Protection, LLC, P.O. Box 18300, 

Greensboro, NC 27419–8300, requests to 

establish a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 

for residues of the insecticide, 

avermectin (abamectin) determined by 

measuring only avermectin B1, a 

mixture of avermectins containing 

greater than or equal to 80% avermectin 

B1a (5- O -demethyl avermectin A1) and 

less than or equal to 20% avermectin 

B1b (5- O -demethyl-25-de(1- 

methylpropyl)-25-(1-methylethyl) 

avermectin A1), and its delta-8,9-isomer 

in or on Caneberry subgroup 13–07A at 

0.20 ppm. The analytical methods 

involve homogenization, filtration, 

partition, and cleanup with analysis by 

high performance liquid 

chromatography (HPLC)-fluorescence 

detection. The methods are sufficiently 

sensitive to detect residues at or above 

the proposed tolerance. All methods 

have undergone independent laboratory 

validation. (RD) 

4. PP 3E8183. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0496). Interregional Research Project 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 177 / Thursday, September 12, 2013 / Proposed Rules 56187 

Number 4 (IR–4), 500 College Road East, 

Suite 201 W., Princeton, NJ 08540, 

requests to establish a tolerance in 40 

CFR part 180 for the combined residues 

of the fungicide, cis- and trans-1,3- 

dichloropropene, including its 

metabolites and degradates, in or on 

pineapple at 0.02 ppm. It is proposed 

that compliance with the tolerance 

levels specified in § 180.636 is to be 

determined by measuring cis- and trans1,3-dichloropropene and its metabolites 

cis- and trans-3-chloroacrylic acid, and 

cis-and trans-3-chloroallylalcohol, in or 

on the commodity. The proposed 

tolerances are to support post plant use 

in pineapple, similar to the established 

drip irrigation use of 

1,3-dichloropropene in grapes. 

Adequate enforcement methodology, 

using capillary gas chromatography 

with mass selective detection (GC/MS), 

is available to enforce the tolerance 

expression. Analytical methods 

determine residues of 1,3- 

dichlorpropene, 3-chloroallyl alcohol, 

and 3-chloroacrylic acid at trace 

concentrations in samples of pineapple 

using GC/MS. (RD) 

5. PP 3F8163. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0255). BASF Corporation, 26 Davis 

Drive, Research Triangle Park, NC 

27709, requests to establish a tolerance 

in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the 

fungicide metrafenone, ((3-bromo-6- 

methoxy-2-methylphenyl) (2,3,4- 

trimethoxy-6- 

methylphenyl)methanone), in or on 

Fruits, pome, group 11–10 at 1.5 ppm. 

The residues of parent metrafenone in/ 

on apple and pear RAC samples were 

quantitated using an LC/MS/MS multiresidue QuEChERS method (BASF 

Study No. 398340). (RD) 

6. PP 3F8184. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0428). Syngenta Crop Protection, LLC, 

P.O. Box 18300, Greensboro, NC 27419, 

requests to establish tolerances in 40 

CFR part 180 for residues of the 

insecticide, avermectin B1 (which is a 

mixture of a minimum of 80% 

avermectin B1a and a maximum of 20% 

avermectin B1b) and the delta 8,9-isomer 

of the B1a and of the B1b components of 

the parent insecticide, in or on corn, 

field, sweet and pop at 0.01 ppm; corn, 

field and pop, forage at 0.2 ppm; corn, 

field and pop, grain at 0.01 ppm; corn, 

field and pop, stover at 0.6 ppm; corn, 

sweet, forage at 0.2 ppm; corn, sweet, 

kernel plus cob with husk removed at 

0.01 ppm; corn, sweet, stover at 0.5 

ppm; soybean at 0.01 ppm; soybean 

forage at 0.3 ppm; soybean, hay at 1 

ppm; and soybean, seed at 0.01 ppm. 

The HPLC-fluorescence detection 

method is used to measure and evaluate 

the chemical abamectin. (RD) 

New Tolerance Exemption 

1. PP 2F8103. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0569). Northwest Agricultural Products, 

821 South Chestnut Avenue, Pasco, WA 

99301, requests to establish an 

exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance for residues of the herbicide, 

Pseudomonas fluorescens strain D7, in 

or on growing crops and rangeland. The 

petitioner believes no analytical method 

is needed because an analytical method 

for residues is not applicable, as 

Northwest Agricultural Products is 

proposing an exemption from the 

requirement of a tolerance. (BPPD) 

2. PP 3F8177. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2013– 

0574). Amy Plato Roberts of Technology 

Science Group, Inc., 712 Fifth St., Suite 

A, Davis, CA 95616 on behalf of IAB, 

S.L. (Investigaciones y Aplicaciones 

Biotecnologicas S.L.), Avda. Paret del 

Patriarca 11–B, Ap. 30, 46113 Moncada 

(Valencia), Spain, requests to establish 

an exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance for residues of the fungicide, 

Bacillus subtilis strain IAB/BS03, in or 

on all food commodities. The petitioner 

believes no analytical method is needed 

because it is expected that, when used 

as proposed, Bacillus subtilis strain 

IAB/BS03, would not result in residues 

that are of toxicological concern. (BPPD) 

3. PP IN–10549. (EPA–HQ–OPP– 

2013–0601). Ecolab, Inc., EPA Company 

Number 1677, 370 N. Wabasha Street,

of the Connect America Fund Phase II 

Cost Model Illustrative Results 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the 

Wireline Competition Bureau 

announces the availability of the next

Model (CAM v3.2), which includes 

certain adjustments to the CAM to 

reflect the unique circumstances and 

operating conditions in the noncontiguous areas of the United States. 

The Bureau seeks comment on these 

changes, specifically the addition of the 

capability to model costs for undersea 

cable connecting non-contiguous areas 

to the contiguous United States, plant 

mix values submitted by Alaska 

Communications Systems Group, Inc.

value of ‘‘1’’ for the regional cost 

adjustment for the U.S. Virgin Islands, 

which has the effect of increasing labor 

costs. Lastly, the Bureau seeks comment 

on using the plant mix values that were 

filed separately in models previously 

filed by Puerto Rico Telephone 

Company, Inc. (PRTC) and Virgin 

Islands Telephone Corporation d/b/a 

Innovative Telephone (Vitelco) in the 

next version of the CAM.
