1184 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 6 / Monday, January 11, 2016 / Notices 

• Federal Register notices regarding 

current or pending tolerances. 

• Risk assessments. 

• Bibliographies concerning current 

registrations. 

• Summaries of incident data. 

• Any other pertinent data or 

information. 

Each docket contains a document 

summarizing what the Agency currently 

knows about the pesticide case and a 

preliminary work plan for anticipated 

data and assessment needs. Additional 

documents provide more detailed 

information. During this public 

comment period, the Agency is asking 

that interested persons identify any 

additional information they believe the 

Agency should consider during the 

registration review of these pesticides. 

The Agency identifies in each docket 

the areas where public comment is 

specifically requested, though comment 

in any area is welcome. 

2. Other related information. More 

information on these cases, including 

the active ingredients for each case, may 

be located in the registration review 

schedule on the Agency’s Web site at 

http://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/

registration_review/schedule.htm. 

Information on the Agency’s registration 

review program and its implementing 

regulation may be seen at http://

www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/registration_

review. 

3. Information submission 

requirements. Anyone may submit data 

or information in response to this 

document. To be considered during a 

pesticide’s registration review, the 

submitted data or information must 

meet the following requirements: 

• To ensure that EPA will consider 

data or information submitted, 

interested persons must submit the data 

or information during the comment 

period. The Agency may, at its 

discretion, consider data or information 

submitted at a later date. 

• The data or information submitted 

must be presented in a legible and 

useable form. For example, an English 

translation must accompany any 

material that is not in English, and a 

written transcript must accompany any 

information submitted as an 

audiographic or videographic record. 

Written material may be submitted in 

paper or electronic form. 

• Submitters must clearly identify the 

source of any submitted data or 

information. 

• Submitters may request the Agency 

to reconsider data or information that 

the Agency rejected in a previous 

review. However, submitters must 

explain why they believe the Agency 

should reconsider the data or 

information in the pesticide’s 

registration review. 

As provided in 40 CFR 155.58, the 

registration review docket for each 

pesticide case will remain publicly 

accessible through the duration of the 

registration review process; that is, until 

all actions required in the final decision 

on the registration review case have 

been completed.

Adequacy Status of the Dallas-Fort 

Worth, Texas Reasonable Further 

Progress 8-Hour Ozone Motor Vehicle 

Emission Budgets for Transportation 

Conformity Purposes 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of adequacy. 

SUMMARY: EPA is notifying the public 

that it has found that the motor vehicle 

emissions budgets (MVEBs) in the 

Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas (DFW) 

Reasonable Further Progress (RFP) State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) revision, 

submitted on July 10, 2015 by the Texas 

Commission on Environmental Quality 

(TCEQ) are adequate for transportation 

conformity purposes. As a result of 

EPA’s finding, the DFW area must use 

these budgets for future conformity 

determinations. 

DATES: These budgets are effective 

January 26, 2016. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The 

essential information in this notice will 

be available at EPA’s conformity Web 

site: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/

stateresources/transconf/adequacy.htm.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ 

and ‘‘our’’ refers to EPA. The word 

‘‘budget(s)’’ refers to the mobile source 

emissions budget for volatile organic 

compounds (VOCs) and the mobile 

source emissions budget for nitrogen 

oxides (NOX). 

On July 10, 2015, we received a SIP 

revision from the TCEQ. This revision 

consisted of an RFP SIP for the DFW 

ozone nonattainment area. This 

submission established MVEBs for the 

DFW area for the year 2017. The MVEB 

is the amount of emissions allowed in 

the state implementation plan for onroad motor vehicles; it establishes an 

emissions ceiling for the regional 

transportation network. The MVEBs are 

provided in Table 1: 

TABLE 1—DALLAS-FORT WORTH REASONABLE FURTHER PROGRESS NOX

AND VOC MVEBS 

[Summer season tons per day] 

2017 

NOX ...................................... 148.36 

VOC ...................................... 77.18 

On August 25, 2015, EPA posted the 

availability of the DFW area MVEBs on 

EPA’s Web site for the purpose of 

soliciting public comments, as part of 

the adequacy process. The comment 

period closed on September 24, 2015, 

and we received no comments. 

Today’s notice is simply an 

announcement of a finding that EPA has 

already made. EPA Region 6 sent a letter 

to TCEQ on December 10, 2015, finding 

that the MVEBs in the DFW RFP SIP, 

submitted on July 10, 2015 are adequate 

and must be used for transportation 

conformity determinations in the DFW 

area. This finding has also been 

announced on EPA’s conformity Web 

site: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/

stateresources/transconf/adequacy.htm. 

Transportation conformity is required 

by section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act. 

EPA’s conformity rule, 40 Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) part 93, 

requires that transportation plans, 

programs and projects conform to state 

air quality implementation plans and 

establishes the criteria and procedures 

for determining whether or not they do 

so. Conformity to a SIP means that 

transportation activities will not 

produce new air quality violations, 

worsen existing violations, or delay 

timely attainment of the national 

ambient air quality standards. 

The criteria by which EPA determines 

whether a SIP’s MVEB is adequate for 

transportation conformity purposes are 

outlined in 40 CFR 93.118(e)(4). We 

have also described the process for 

determining the adequacy of submitted 

SIP budgets in our July 1, 2004, final 

rulemaking entitled, ‘‘Transportation 

Conformity Rule Amendments for the 

New 8-hour Ozone and PM2.5 National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards and 

Miscellaneous Revisions for Existing

Amendments: Response to Court 

Decision and Additional Rule Changes’’ 

(69 FR 40004). Please note that an 

adequacy review is separate from EPA’s 

completeness review, and it should not 

be used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate 

approval of the DFW RFP SIP revision 

submittal. Even if EPA finds the budgets 

adequate, the DFW RFP SIP revision 

submittal could later be disapproved. 

Within 24 months from the effective 

date of this notice, the DFW-area 

transportation partners, such as the 

North Central Texas Council of 

Governments, will need to demonstrate 

conformity to the new MVEBs if the 

demonstration has not already been 

made, pursuant to 40 CFR 93.104(e). 

See, 73 FR 4419 (January 24, 2008).
