Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Plating and Polishing 

Area Sources regulations apply to 

respondents that are plating and 

polishing facilities engaged in any of the 

following processes: Non-chromium 

electroplating; electroless or nonelectrolytic plating; other nonelectrolytic metal coating processes 

such as chromate conversion coating, 

nickel acetate sealing, sodium 

dichromate sealing, manganese 

phosphate coating, thermal spraying; 

dry mechanical polishing of finished 

metals and formed products after 

plating or thermal spraying, 

electroforming, and electro-polishing. 

New facilities include those that 

commenced construction or 

reconstruction after the date of proposal. 

The required annual reports are used to 

determine periods of excess emissions, 

identify problems at the facility, verify 

operation/maintenance procedures and 

for compliance determinations. This 

information is also collected to assure 

compliance with 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart WWWWWW. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Owners and operators of plating and 

polishing facilities. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart 

WWWWWW). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

2,900 (total). 

Frequency of response: Initially and 

annually. 

Total estimated burden: 64,315 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $6,304,966 (per 

year), which includes $8,314 in 

annualized capital/start-up costs and 0 

in operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 31,208 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. The change in burden and cost 

estimates occurred as a result of 

updating the burden tables to accurately 

reflect the reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements of the rule.

Registration Review; Draft Human 

Health and/or Ecological Risk 

Assessment; Notice of Availability 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of EPA’s draft human health 

and/or ecological risk assessment for the 

registration review of 

propoxycarbazone-sodium, and opens a 

public comment period on this 

document. Registration review is EPA’s 

periodic review of pesticide 

registrations to ensure that each 

pesticide continues to satisfy the 

statutory standard for registration, that 

is, the pesticide can perform its 

intended function without unreasonable 

adverse effects on human health or the 

environment. As part of the registration 

review process, the Agency has 

completed a comprehensive draft 

human health and ecological risk 

assessment for all uses of the previously 

listed pesticide chemical. The ecological 

risk assessment includes or will include 

an assessment of risks to listed species, 

and the human health and ecological 

risk assessments includes or will 

include a determination of endocrine 

disrupter effects for the case. After 

reviewing comments received during 

the public comment period, EPA may 

issue revised risk assessments, explain 

any changes to the draft risk 

assessments, and respond to comments. 

The Agency also will request public 

input on any proposed risk mitigation 

measures before completing a proposed 

registration review decision for the 

previously listed pesticide chemical. 

Through this program, EPA is ensuring 

that each pesticide’s registration is 

based on current scientific and other 

knowledge, including its effects on 

human health and the environment 

registration is based on current

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

This action is directed to the public 

in general, and may be of interest to a 

wide range of stakeholders including 

environmental, human health, farm 

worker, and agricultural advocates; the 

chemical industry; pesticide users; and 

members of the public interested in the 

sale, distribution, or use of pesticides. 

Since others also may be interested, the 

Agency has not attempted to describe all 

the specific entities that may be affected 

by this action. If you have any questions 

regarding the applicability of this action 

to a particular entity, consult the 

Chemical Review Manager listed under

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

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 preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/

comments.html. 

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. Authority 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of dimethoate, flurprimido, 

fosamine ammonium, propoxur, 

propoxycarbazone-sodium, and 

tetrachlorvinphos pursuant to section 

3(g) of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) 

and the Procedural Regulations for 

Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, 

subpart C. Section 3(g) of FIFRA 

provides, among other things, that the 

registrations of pesticides are to be 

reviewed every 15 years. Under FIFRA, 

a pesticide product may be registered or 

remain registered only if it meets the 

statutory standard for registration given 

in FIFRA section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 

136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance 

with widespread and commonly 

recognized practice, the pesticide 

product must perform its intended 

function without unreasonable adverse 

effects on the environment; that is, 

without any unreasonable risk to man or 

the environment, or a human dietary 

risk from residues that result from the 

use of a pesticide in or on food. 

III. Registration Reviews 

As directed by FIFRA section 3(g), 

EPA is reviewing the pesticide 

registration for propoxycarbazonesodium to ensure that it continues to 

satisfy the FIFRA standard for 

registration—that is, this pesticide can 

still be used without unreasonable 

adverse effects on human health or the 

environment. Information on the type of 

pesticide, target pests and uses sites can 

be found later in this document. EPA 

has completed draft human health and/ 

or ecological risk assessments for all 

propoxycarbazone-sodium, uses. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.53(c), EPA is 

providing an opportunity, through this 

notice of availability, for interested 

parties to provide comments and input 

concerning the Agency’s draft human 

health and ecological risk assessment 

for propoxycarbazone-sodium. Such 

comments and input could address, 

among other things, the Agency’s risk 

assessment methodologies and 

assumptions, as applied to this draft risk 

assessment. The Agency will consider 

all comments received during the public 

comment period and make changes, as 

appropriate, to the draft human health 

and ecological risk assessments. EPA 

will then, as needed, issue revised risk 

assessments, explain any changes to the 

draft risk assessments, and respond to 

the comments. In the Federal Register 

notice announcing the availability of the 

revised risk assessments, if a revised 

risk assessment indicates risks of 

concern, the Agency may provide a 

comment period for the public to submit 

suggestions for mitigating the risks 

identified in the revised risk assessment 

before developing a proposed 

registration review decision. 

Alternatively, the Agency may seek 

public comment on a proposed 

registration review decision without 

revising the risk assessments for any 

given chemical. At present, EPA is 

releasing registration review draft risk 

assessments for the pesticide case 

identified in the following table and 

further described after the table.
