Butylate, 0071 ...................................... EPA–HQ–OPP–2008– 0882. Steven Snyderman, (703) 347–0249, snyderman.steven@epa.gov.

The registration review docket for a pesticide includes earlier documents related to the registration review of the case. For example, the review opened with the posting of a Summary Document, containing a Preliminary Work Plan, for public comment. A Final Work Plan was posted to the docket following public comment on the initial docket.

As stated in the documents in the initial butylate registration review docket, the Agency had intended to revise the existing risk assessments for butylate. However, after publication of the butylate Final Work Plan, pursuant to Section 4(i)(5)(G) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, the Agency issued a cancellation order, dated July14, 2010, to the technical registrant TriAg, Inc., cancelling their butylate registrations for non-payment of annual registration maintenance fees, which were due January 15, 2010. This cancellation order established July 14, 2010 as the effective cancellation date for Tri-Ag, Inc.’s butylate registrations. Further, the Agency announced the issuance of the cancellation order for non-payment of year 2010 registration maintenance fees for butylate products in the Federal Register on July 28, 2010 (75 FR 44240; FRL–8835–2). For the remaining butylate product registrations, pursuant to Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA, as amended, the Agency announced receipt of a request from the end-use registrant, Arysta Lifescience North America, LLC, to voluntarily cancel the last butylate product registration; and then granted this voluntary cancellation request, establishing March 23, 2011, as the effective cancellation date for the last butylate product registered for use in the United States, as published in the Federal Register on March 23, 2011 (76 FR 16147, FRL–8867–8). Due to the cancellation orders issued affecting the last remaining butylate product registrations in the United States, the Agency has found that it is not necessary to conduct new risk assessments for butylate and is, therefore, issuing a proposed decision pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58. The Agency believes that mitigation measures put into effect on product labeling through the reregistration process are adequate to protect human health and the environment until existing stocks of butylate are exhausted. This proposed registration review decision is described in more detail in the Butylate Proposed Registration Review Decision, available in the butylate docket. Following public comment, the Agency will issue a final registration review decision for products containing butylate.

The registration review program isbeing conducted under congressionallymandated time frames, and EPA recognizes the need both to make timely decisions and to involve the public. Section 3(g) of FIFRA, as amended, required EPA to establish by regulation procedures for reviewing pesticide registrations, originally with a goal of reviewing each pesticide’s registration every 15 years to ensure that a pesticide continues to meet the FIFRA standard for registration. The Agency’s final rule to implement this program was issued in August 2006 and became effective in October 2006, and appears at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C. The Pesticide Registration Improvement Act of 2003 (PRIA) was amended and extended in September 2007. FIFRA, as amended by PRIA in 2007, requires EPA to complete registration review decisions by October 1, 2022, for all pesticides registered as of October 1, 2007.

The registration review final rule at 40 CFR 155.58(a) provides for a minimum 60-day public comment period on all proposed registration review decisions. This comment period is intended to provide an opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating any necessary amendments to the proposed decision. All comments should be submitted using the methods in

**ADDRESSES** , and must be received by EPA on or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the docket for butylate. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to consider these late

comments.

The Agency will carefully consider all comments received by the closing date and will provide a ‘‘Response to Comments Memorandum’’ in the docket. The final registration review decision will explain the effect that any comments had on the decision and provide the Agency’s response to significant comments.

B. What is the agency’s authority for taking this action?

Section 3(g) of FIFRA and 40 CFR part 155, subpart C, provide authority for this action.

**ACTION :**  Notice; correction.

**SUMMARY :**  This document contains a typographical correction to the guidance which was published in the Federal Register of Tuesday, July 5, 2011. The guidance described how owners and operators of underground storage tanks (USTs) can demonstrate compliance with the Federal compatibility requirement for UST systems storing gasoline greater than 10 percent ethanol or diesel containing greater than 20 percent biodiesel. That guidance contained a typographical error which this action corrects. The complete, corrected version of the guidance can be found on EPA’s Web site.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  On October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) was published in the Federal Register (70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR establishes electronic reporting as an acceptable regulatory alternative to paper reporting and establishes requirements to assure that electronic documents are as legally dependable as their paper counterparts. Under subpart D of CROMERR, state, tribe or local government agencies that receive, or wish to begin receiving, electronic reports under their EPA-authorized programs must apply to EPA for a revision or modification of those programs and obtain EPA approval. Subpart D also provides standards for such approvals based on consideration of the electronic document receiving systems that the state, tribe, or local government will use to implement the electronic reporting. Additionally, in § 3.1000(b) through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D provides special procedures for program revisions and modifications to allow electronic reporting, to be used at the option of the state, tribe or local government in place of procedures available under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An application submitted under the subpart D procedures must show that the state, tribe or local government has sufficient legal authority to implement the electronic reporting components of the programs covered by the application and will use electronic document receiving systems that meet the applicable subpart D requirements.

On December 20, 2010, the Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection (KY DEP) submitted an application for its Net Discharge Monitoring Report (NetDMR) electronic document receiving system for revision/ modification of its EPA-authorized programs under title 40 CFR. EPA reviewed KY DEP’s request to revise its EPA-authorized programs and, based on this review, EPA determined that the application met the standards for approval of authorized program revisions/modifications set out in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this notice of EPA’s decision to approve Kentucky’s request for revision to its 40 CFR Part 123– National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) State Program Requirements and part 403– General Pretreatment Regulations For Existing And New Sources Of Pollution EPA-authorized programs for electronic reporting of discharge monitoring report information submitted under 40 CFR parts 122 and 403 is being published in the Federal Register.

KY DEP was notified of EPA’s determination to approve its application with respect to the authorized programs listed above.
