### 82239 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 251 / Friday, December 30, 2011 / Proposed Rules

certain entities. If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person listed at the end of the pesticide petition summary of interest.

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 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 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 174 or 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 on-line 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 Tolerances

1. PP 0E7789. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0138). Bayer CropScience, 2 T.W. Alexander Dr., P.O. Box 12014, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709, requests to establish an import tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the fungicide trifloxystrobin (benzeneacetic acid, (E,E )- a-(methoxyimino)-2-[[[[1-[3- (trifluoromethyl) phenyl] ethylidene]amino]oxy]methyl]-methyl ester) and the free form of its acid metabolite CGA–321113 ((E,E )-methoxyimino-[2-[1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-ethylideneaminooxymethyl]- phenyl]acetic acid), in or on imported coffee, bean, green at 0.02 parts per million (ppm). A practical analytical methodology for detecting and measuring levels of trifloxystrobin in or on raw agricultural commodities has been submitted to the Agency. The method is based on crop specific procedures and determination by gaschromatography with nitrogenphosphorus detection. A newer analytical method is available employing liquid chromatography/ tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) with an electrospray interface, operated in a positive ion mode. Contact: Rose Mary Kearns, (703) 305–5611, email address: kearns.rosemary@epa.gov.

2. PP 1F7928. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0962). Dow AgroSciences, LLC., 9330 Zionsville Road, Indianapolis, IN 46268, requests to establish tolerances in 40 CFR part 180 for combined residues of fluroxypyr 1-methylheptyl ester [1- methylheptyl ((4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6- fluoro-2-pyridinyl)oxy)acetate] and its metabolite fluroxypyr [((4-amino-3,5- dichloro-6-fluoro-2-pyridinyl)oxy)acetic acid] in or on crop group 15 (cereal grains) including: Barley, buckwheat, millet, oats, rye, teosinte, triticale, and wheat at 0.5 ppm; corn, popcorn, and sorghum grain at 0.02 ppm; rice and wild rice at 1.5 ppm; rice, bran at 3.0 ppm; crop group 16 including forage, fodder and straw of cereal grains at 12 ppm; hay of cereal grains at 20 ppm; and stover of cereal grains at 4 ppm. Adequate enforcement method for the combined residues of total fluroxypyr is available to enforce the tolerance expression in or on food. The analytical method uses high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS) with limits of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.01 ppm. Contact: Bethany Benbow, (703) 347–8072, email address: benbow.bethany@epa.gov.
New Tolerance Exemption

PP 1E7932. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0975). Clariant Corp., 625 E. Catawba Ave., Mt. Holly, NC 28120, requests to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of 2–Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 2- ethylhexyl ester, telomere with 1- dodecanethiol, ethenylbenzene and 2- methyloxirane polymer with oxirane monoether with 1,2-propanediol mono(2-methyl-2-propenoate), hydrogen 2-sulfobutanedioate, sodium salt, 2,2 ′
- (1,2-diazenediyl)bis[2- methylpropanenitrile]-initiated (CAS


### 82240 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 251 / Friday, December 30, 2011 / Proposed Rules

No. 1283712–50–4) under 40 CFR 180.960 when used as a pesticide inert ingredient in pesticide formulations as a dispersing agent. The petitioner believes no analytical method is needed because 2–Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, 2- ethylhexyl ester, telomere with 1- dodecanethiol, ethenylbenzene and 2- methyloxirane polymer with oxirane monoether with 1,2-propanediol mono(2-methyl-2-propenoate), hydrogen 2-sulfobutanedioate, sodium salt, 2,2 ′
- (1,2-diazenediyl)bis[2- methylpropanenitrile]-initiated is exempt from the requirement of a tolerance based upon the definition of a low-risk polymer under 40 CFR 723.250. Therefore, an analytical method to determine residues on treated crops is not relevant. Contact: Alganesh Debesai, (703) 308–8353, email address: debesai.alganesh@epa.gov.

**47 CFR Part 14**

**[CG Docket No. 10–213; WT Docket No. 96– 198; CG Docket No. 10–145; FCC 11–151]** 

**Implementing the Provisions of the Communications Act of 1934, as**  **Enacted by the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video**  **Accessibility Act of 2010**

**AGENCY :**  Federal Communications
Commission.

**ACTION :**  Proposed rule.

**SUMMARY :**  In this document, the Commission seeks comment on the implementation of certain provisions in sections 716, 717, and 718 of the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 (CVAA), the most significant piece of accessibility legislation since the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990. Specifically, this document seeks comment on whether to adopt a permanent exemption for small entities that provide advanced communications services (ACS). The document also seeks comment on implementing section 718 of the Act which requires Internet browsers built into mobile phones to be accessible to and usable by persons who are blind or have a visual impairment, unless doing so is unachievable. This inquiry includes the recordkeeping and enforcement requirements related to section 718. People with disabilities have often faced technical challenges associated with the use of Internet browsers, video conferencing services, and the accessibility of information content. The CVAA attempts to bring existing communications laws protecting people with disabilities in line with 21st Century technologies while providing flexibility to the industry by allowing for new and innovative ways to meet the needs of people with disabilities. These actions will promote rapid deployment of and universal access to broadband services for all Americans across the country, which will in turn stimulate economic growth and provide opportunity.
