2. PP 7E7270. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2007– 

1106). Interregional Research Project 

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

Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ 08540, 

proposes upon approval of the 

aforementioned tolerances (under Unit 

III. A.7), to remove the established 

tolerances in 40 CFR 180.275 for the 

residues of the fungicide chlorothalonil 

in or on the food commodities broccoli, 

Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, 

cucumber, melon, nonbell pepper, 

pumpkin, summer squash, winter 

squash and tomato since the proposed 

tolerances on fruiting vegetables, 

cucurbit vegetables or Brassica head and 

stem vegetables would apply to these 

commodities. Contact: Susan Stanton,

3. PPs 0F6159 and 6F7070. (EPA–HQ– 

OPP–2007–1021). Nichino America, 

Inc., 4550 New Linden Hill Road, Suite 

501, Wilmington, DE 19808, proposes to 

amend the inadvertent or indirect 

tolerances in 40 CFR 180.484 by 

establishing increased tolerances for 

residues of the fungicide flutolanil [N-

(3-(1-methylethoxy)phenyl)-2-

(trifluoromethyl) benzamide] and its 

metabolite, M-4, desisopropylflutolanil 

[N-3(3-hydroxyphenyl)2-(trifluromethyl) 

benzamide] in or on the food 

commodities soybean forage at 9.0 ppm; 

soybean hay at 2.0 ppm; soybean seed 

at 0.20 ppm; wheat bran at 0.30 ppm; 

wheat forage at 2.0 ppm; wheat grain at 

0.10 ppm; wheat hay at 1.0 ppm; wheat 

straw at 0.30 ppm; corn, field, forage at 

0.30 ppm; corn, field, grain at 0.20 ppm; 

corn field, stover at 0.30 ppm; and 

cotton, undelinted seed at 0.20 ppm. 

Flutolanil and its metabolites are 

converted to 2-trifluoromethyl benzoic 

acid and calculated as flutolanil in the 

gas chromatography/mass spectrometry 

mass spectrometry (GC/MS MS) 

detection method used for soybean and 

wheat commodities. Flutolanil and M-4 

are detected directly in the liquid 

chromatography/mass spectrometry 

(LC/MS) detection method used for corn 

and cotton. Contact: Lisa Jones,

National Lead Laboratory 

Accreditation Program (NLLAP); 

Notice of Availability of Revisions to 

the NLLAP; Notice of Availability 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 


Agency (EPA). 


ACTION: Notice. 


SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of the revised EPA National 

Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program 

(NLLAP) in the document titled 

‘‘Laboratory Quality System 

Requirements (LQSR) Revision 3.0’’ 

dated July 5, 2007. Revisions to the 

LQSR include the expansion of NLLAP 

to cover: (1) Lead laboratory analysis 

programs that conduct lead analysis for 

the field (Field Sampling and 

Measurement Organizations), and (2) 

revised training requirements for 

laboratory personnel. The Agency will 

phase-in LQSR 3.0 over the next 18 

months. 

DATES: LQSR 3.0 will become effective 

July 23, 2009. In order to be recognized 

by the NLLAP, laboratories and 

accreditation organizations that 

currently administer the NLLAP may 

comply with the requirements of the 

LQSR 2.0 dated August 1, 1996, or 

LQSR 3.0 dated July 5, 2007. After, July 

23, 2009 all NLLAP recognized 

organizations must implement and 

comply with the requirements of LQSR 

3.0.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this Action Apply to Me? 

You might potentially be affected by 

this action if you are or may be required 

to follow the Agency’s regulations 

regarding testing for lead. Specifically, 

entities potentially affected by these 

revisions are Fixed-Site, Mobile, and 

Field Sampling and Measurement 

Organizations (FSMOs) that perform 

lead testing. Analytical testing 

laboratories currently recognized by the 

NLLAP, and accreditation organizations 

that currently administer the NLLAP 

(i.e., the American Industrial Hygiene 

Association (AIHA) and the American 

Association for Laboratory 

Accreditation (A2LA)) or other 

organizations that might seek a 

Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) 

with the Agency to become an 

accreditation organization could be 

affected by today’s revisions. In 

addition, certified inspectors, certified 

risk assessors, developers, 

manufacturers, distributors of 

equipment and supplies used by FSMOs 

testing lead might also be affected by 

these revisions; and EPA-authorized 

state and tribal lead-based paint training 

and certification programs may also be 

affected by these revisions. 

Other entities potentially affected by 

changes to the NLLAP for lead testing 

are the owners and managers of target 

housing and child-occupied facilities, as 

well as realtors, lessees, and residents, 

who ultimately pay for the testing 

services and stand to benefit by 

obtaining lead test results quicker. 

Since other entities may also be 

interested, the Agency has not 

attempted to describe all of the specific 

entities that may be affected by this 

notice. If you have any questions 

regarding the applicability of this notice 

to a particular entity, consult the 

technical person listed under FOR 

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

Home Page at http://www.epa.gov/lead/ 

new.htm. 

The Agency is announcing changes to 

NLLAP to encourage the recognition of 

all lead testing service providers (e.g., 

FSMOs) and to bring the NLLAP into 

compliance with current consensus 

standards (e.g., American Society for 

Testing and Materials (ASTM), 

American National Standards Institute 

(ANSI), and International Organization 

for Standardization (ISO)). This may, in 

turn, increase lead testing options, 

reduce costs, and save time for those 

who purchase analytical services related 

to lead hazard identification and 

control. 

III. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

The Agency made these revisions to 

the NLLAP to provide a vehicle and 

remove barriers so that all types of lead 

testing service providers could 

participate in the NLLAP. These 

changes also provide the tools for 

smaller lead testing organizations to 

obtain NLLAP recognition. Also these 

revisions are making the NLLAP more 

efficient and cost-effective while 

maintaining the high standard of 

quality, science and technology 

necessary to ensure public health 

protection in supporting EPA and U.S. 

Department of Housing and Urban 

Development (HUD) lead regulations.
