Unfunded Mandates 

The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 requires, at 2 U.S.C. 1532, that 

agencies prepare an assessment of 

anticipated costs and benefits before 

issuing any rule that may result in the 

expenditure by State, local, and tribal 

governments, in the aggregate, or by the 

private sector, of $100 million or more 

(adjusted annually for inflation) in any 

one year. This proposed rule would 

have no such effect on State, local, and 

tribal governments, or on the private 

sector.

Region 4] 

Approval and Promulgation of 

Implementation Plans for the State of 

Alabama: Cross-State Air Pollution 

Rule 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve 

the State of Alabama’s March 27, 2015, 

State Implementation Plan (SIP) 

revision, submitted by the Alabama 

Department of Environmental 

Management. This SIP revision provides 

Alabama’s state-determined allowance 

allocations for existing electric 

generating units (EGUs) in the State for 

the 2016 control periods and replaces 

the allowance allocations for the 2016 

control periods established by EPA 

under the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule 

(CSAPR). The CSAPR addresses the 

‘‘good neighbor’’ provision of the Clean 

Air Act (CAA or Act) that requires states 

to reduce the transport of pollution that 

significantly affects downwind 

nonattainment and maintenance areas. 

EPA is proposing to approve Alabama’s 

SIP revision, incorporate the statedetermined allocations for the 2016 

control periods into the SIP, and amend 

the regulatory text of the CSAPR Federal 

Implementation Plan (FIP) to reflect 

approval and inclusion of the statedetermined allocations. EPA is 

proposing to approve Alabama’s SIP 

revision because it meets the 

requirements of the CAA and the 

CSAPR requirements to replace EPA’s 

allowance allocations for the 2016 

control periods. This action is being 

taken pursuant to the CAA and its 

implementing regulations. In the Final 

Rules Section of this Federal Register, 

EPA is approving the State’s 

implementation plan revision as a direct 

final rule without prior proposal 

because the Agency views this as a 

noncontroversial submittal and 

anticipates no adverse comments. A 

detailed rationale for the approval is set 

forth in the direct final rule. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before August 26, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,

Proposal To Mitigate Exposure to Bees 

From Acutely Toxic Pesticide 

Products; Extension of Comment 

Period 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice; extension of comment 

period. 

SUMMARY: EPA issued a notice in the 

Federal Register of May 29, 2015, 

concerning EPA’s Proposal to Mitigate 

Exposure to Bees from Acutely Toxic 

Pesticide Products and a second notice 

on extending the comment period to 

July 29, 2015. This document extends 

the comment period for an additional 30 

days, from July 29, 2015 to August 28, 

2015. The Agency has received 

additional requests from multiple 

stakeholders to extend the comment 

period to allow them to adequately 

develop comments on this complex and 

important issue. EPA is granting the 

extension. 

DATES: The comment period for the 

document published on May 29, 2015 

(80 FR 30644) is extended. Comments 

identified by docket identification (ID) 

number EPA–HQ–OPP–2014–0818 must 

be received on or before August 28, 

2015. 

ADDRESSES: Follow the detailed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

document further extends the public 

comment period established in the 

Federal Register document of May 29, 

2015. In that document, EPA is seeking 

comment on a proposal to adopt 

mandatory pesticide label restrictions to 

protect managed bees under contract 

pollination services from foliar 

applications of pesticides that are 

acutely toxic to bees on a contact 

exposure basis. These label restrictions 

would prohibit applications of pesticide 

products, which are acutely toxic to 

bees, during bloom when bees are 

known to be present under contract. 

EPA is also seeking comment on a 

proposal to rely on efforts made by 

states and tribes to reduce pesticide 

exposures through development of 

locally-based measures, specifically 

through managed pollinator protection 

plans. These plans would include local 

and customizable mitigation measures 

to address certain scenarios that can 

result in exposure to pollinators. EPA 

intends to monitor the success of these 

plans in deciding whether further label 

restrictions are warranted. EPA is 

hereby extending the comment period, 

which was set to end on July 29, 2015 

to August 28, 2015. 

To submit comments, or access the 

docket, please follow the detailed 

instructions provided under ADDRESSES

in the Federal Register document of
