 AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
 ACTION: Final rule.
 SUMMARY: EPA is promulgating a final rule to incorporate the most recent versions of ASTM International (ASTM) standards into EPA regulations that provide flexibility to use alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers. This final rule will allow the use of such alternatives in certain field and laboratory applications previously impermissible as part of compliance with EPA regulations. EPA believes the older embedded ASTM standards unnecessarily impede the use of effective, comparable, and available alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Due to mercury's high toxicity, EPA seeks to reduce potential mercury exposures to humans and the environment by reducing the overall use of mercury-containing products, including mercury-containing industrial thermometers.
 DATES: This final rule is effective March 19, 2012. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the final rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of March 19, 2012.

                    **FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT**
                    . II. Background A. What action is the agency taking? The Agency is promulgating a final rule, which was proposed in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     issue of January 12, 2011 (76 FR 2056) (FRL-8846-6), to incorporate into EPA regulations revised ASTM standards that provide flexibility to the regulated community to use alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers. As part of the Agency's mercury reduction effort and pursuant to the “EPA Roadmap for Mercury, Chapter 2: Addressing Mercury Uses in Products and Processes,” available at 
                    *http://www.epa.gov/​hg/​roadmap.htm,*
                     EPA is removing unnecessary requirements to use mercury-containing industrial thermometers where viable and comparable non-mercury substitutes exist in the market. EPA is specifically updating regulations to incorporate three ASTM standards (D5865-10, D445-09, and D93-09) that allow for the use of alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers. The Agency is updating these ASTM standards where they are referenced in regulations pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (certain sections of 40 CFR parts 49, 60, 75, 89, 92, 94, 761, and 1065). One of the incorporated ASTM standards (D5865-10) requires the use of a mercury-free device while the other two ASTM standards (D445-09 and D93-09) provide the flexibility to use alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers, but do not require their use. EPA is amending Agency regulations to allow the use of the updated ASTM standard D5865-10 and the previous ASTM standards, D5856-01a, D5856-03a, and D5856-04 so that flexibility is given to use mercury-free thermometers, but not required. Although commenters on the proposed rule stated that EPA should not allow the flexibility to use previous versions of ASTM D-5865 so that mercury-free thermometers would be required, the intent of this final rule is to provide the flexibility to use mercury-containing industrial thermometers while not specifically requiring their use. Mercury exposures can harm the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and immune system. Most human exposure to mercury is through the consumption of fish containing methylmercury. Exposure to methylmercury through ingestion can harm the normal development of the nervous system, resulting in learning disabilities. Elemental mercury and other forms of mercury from industrial sources are deposited from the air and are converted 
                    ( print page 2457)
                    into methylmercury. Mercury exposure can also occur by inhalation of elemental mercury from breakage or improper disposal of mercury-containing products such as mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Inhalation exposure of elemental mercury can lead to neurotoxic and developmental neurotoxic effects. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a U.S. government agency devoted to advancing measurement science, standards, and technology, believes there are no fundamental barriers to the replacement of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Supporting this assertion, on March 1, 2011, NIST discontinued the calibration of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. By discontinuing these calibrations, NIST supports their professional opinion that mercury-containing industrial thermometers are no longer the highest standard for accurate and reproducible temperature measurement. Although previously perceived as superior in performance, mercury-containing industrial thermometers have readily available and comparable alternatives such as platinum resistance thermometers, thermistors, thermocouples, and portable electronic thermometers (PETs). Although a start, the ASTM standards (D5865-10, D445-09, and D93-09) addressed in this final rule comprise only a small percentage of the ASTM standards referenced within EPA regulations that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Further revisions to these other relevant ASTM standards would be necessary before EPA could provide more comprehensive flexibility to the regulated community. To facilitate the use of mercury alternatives, EPA encourages ASTM, in the spirit of pollution prevention, to expeditiously review and revise standards that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers, particularly those currently embedded in EPA regulations. More specifically, EPA encourages ASTM committee chairs to support EPA in making committee members aware of committee standards that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. In addition to EPA regulations that reference ASTM standards, certain EPA regulations directly require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Most of these regulations are pursuant to CAA; EPA's Office of Air and Radiation intends to address them through a separate rulemaking. For ASTM standards contained within State implementation plan (SIP) approvals, the Agency would need to address each ASTM standard separately after consultation with the States. Additionally, analytical methods required under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) that use mercury-containing industrial thermometers as a Method Defined Parameter (MDP) were not addressed in the proposed rule and will not be addressed in this final rule. EPA plans to make revisions to MDPs that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers at a future date. While the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) Methods Innovation Rule (MIR), published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     issue of June 14, 2005 (70 FR 34538) (FRL-7916-1), allows flexibility in RCRA-related sampling and analysis, the MIR does not currently allow for flexibility for test methods that have MDPs. However, methods that are not considered MDPs (i.e., methods not required by RCRA regulations) allow the use of alterative equipment such as non-mercury thermometers as long as users can demonstrate that data quality objectives can be met without compromising data quality. EPA believes that users should identify the appropriate methods for a specific project before sampling and analysis begins and recommends that they consult with their regulating authority during identification of performance goals and the selection of appropriate methods before using alternative equipment (e.g., non-mercury thermometer). For more information on MIR and RCRA's SW-846, “Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,” please visit the SW-846 Web site at 
                    *http://www.epa.gov/​osw/​hazard/​testmethods/​sw846.* B. What is the agency's authority for taking this action? This action is being taken under the Agency's authority pursuant to CAA (42 U.S.C. 7401 to 7671q) and TSCA (15 U.S.C. 2601 to 2692). III. Public Comments A. General Comments The comments EPA received on the proposed rule were overwhelmingly supportive of incorporating the revised ASTM standards D5865-10, D445-09, and D93-09. Five public comments were received. Commenters noted that temperature measurement in laboratories and in the field would not adversely be affected by the proposed amendments. One commenter also correctly noted that several States have already banned or in some way restricted the sale of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Other commenters questioned EPA's reasoning for the action, citing compact fluorescent lights as a greater source of mercury than thermometers. EPA believes that there is justification for allowing flexibility to use alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers where comparable and available substitutes exist. There may be significant cost savings for making the switch to mercury-free thermometers considering the expense incurred to properly clean up a mercury spill following the breakage of a mercury-containing industrial thermometer. Mercury in fluorescent lights, however, is outside the scope of this rulemaking. B. Responses to EPA's Questions Posed in the Proposed Rule 1. 
                    *How can EPA provide additional flexibility in the use of mercury-free thermometers to comply with the Agency's relevant regulations?*
                     Commenters suggested that EPA incorporate voluntary consensus standards (including ASTM standards) by reference so that future updates and amendments to such standards would not require a separate rulemaking by EPA for incorporation. One commenter also stated that by incorporating such ASTM standards EPA should require the use of the least toxic alternatives allowed under such standards. Where ASTM standards are mentioned in EPA regulations, they are incorporated by reference. But that incorporation does not mean that updates to those standards are automatically incorporated. To incorporate updates to standards in EPA regulations, EPA must follow the appropriate procedures of the Administrative Procedures Act to amend the existing regulations. EPA believes that notice-and-comment rulemaking, such as was used for this final rule, provides the public with the ability to thoroughly review updated voluntary consensus standards and provide comments before they are incorporated into EPA regulations. In the spirit of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA), EPA has often identified which industrial thermometers must be used for specific functions by referencing ASTM standards in its regulations. EPA believes the best way to remove unnecessary requirements to use mercury-containing industrial thermometers is for ASTM committees to expeditiously bring up for revision ASTM standards that unnecessarily require mercury-containing industrial 
                    ( print page 2458)
                    thermometers in situations where effective, comparable, and available mercury-free alternatives exist. EPA would then review such ASTM standard revisions and incorporate the updated standards that allow mercury-free alternatives into EPA regulations that reference these standards. EPA would do this through notice-and-comment rulemaking. 2. 
                    *Are requirements to use mercury-containing thermometers necessary for performance reasons or should flexibility be provided in most, if not all, measurement applications?*
                     Commenters stated that thermometry requirements should be performance based. Commenters also noted that flexibility for the use of non-mercury alternatives should be allowed and that where effective non-mercury alternatives exist they should be required to be used to the maximum extent possible. Another commenter stated that many State agencies have actively promoted the elimination of usage of mercury-containing industrial thermometers in State laboratories and have not since experienced reduced performance in temperature measurement. As a result, the commenter asserts that State agencies have found that it is technologically possible to eliminate the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers in most, if not all, applications. The commenter further stated that those State agencies experiences are supported by NIST's statement that there are no fundamental barriers to the replacement of mercury-containing industrial thermometers and NIST's discontinuation of the calibration of mercury-containing thermometers. It was the opinion of this commenter that the decision by NIST to discontinue the calibration of mercury-containing thermometers will facilitate the transition to mercury-free alternatives in laboratories where annual mercury-containing industrial thermometer re-calibration requirements have proven to be an impediment to the complete removal of mercury measurement devices. The same commenter went on to say that the use of digital alternatives to mercury-containing industrial thermometers provided the benefit of electronic recordkeeping processes that could prevent human error in recording measurements. EPA agrees with commenters that the thermometry requirements should be performance based. EPA also agrees that flexibility for mercury-containing industrial thermometer alternatives should be allowed, especially when effective, comparable, and available mercury alternatives are available. EPA also agrees with the commenter that where effective non-mercury alternatives exist, there may be justification for requiring the use of a mercury-free device considering the pollution prevention benefits. However, EPA has not at this time decided whether to pursue requirements for use of mercury-free devices. In the spirit of NTTAA, EPA encourages ASTM to take this into consideration when revising its relevant standards. EPA also agrees with the noted benefits of digital thermometers and that NIST's recent decision will help expedite the transition of laboratories to non-mercury-containing industrial thermometers. 3. 
                    *Does the use of data-loggers for temperature measurement in autoclaves provide a viable alternative to the use of mercury-containing thermometers?*
                     Commenters supported the use of data-loggers for temperature measurement in autoclaves to provide a viable alternative to mercury-containing industrial thermometers. Commenters also noted that substituting the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers in this application, although initially more expensive, avoids the potential for thermometer breakage inside of an autoclave, which could result in expensive cleanup and disposal costs, and overall would represent a significant lifecycle cost savings. One commenter stated that a vaporized mercury release from a resulting spill in an operating autoclave could be potentially dangerous to employees unaware of the thermometer breakage or mercury spill. Two commenters also stated that the ability of data-loggers to track temperature over time within the autoclaves provides assurance of adequate temperatures for a sufficient period of time to ensure proper sterilization, while avoiding potential degradation of microbiological media. EPA agrees with the commenters that the use of data-loggers in autoclaves provides further support that there are viable alternatives to the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers. 4. 
                    *What else can EPA do to help expedite the use of alternatives to mercury-containing thermometers where feasible, comparable, and available?*
                     Commenters responded that EPA should continue to encourage ASTM to evaluate expeditiously its standards that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers and that EPA staff should continue to engage in the ASTM standard updating process as committee members. Commenters also responded that EPA should provide the States and ASTM assistance in evaluating mercury alternatives as well as publicize and make available the outcomes of these performance-based studies. The commenters further responded that EPA should clarify to the public, where possible, applications where mercury-containing industrial thermometers are no longer necessary for accurate and reproducible temperature measurement. Commenters also encouraged EPA to continue to work with NIST to facilitate a switchover to non-mercury alternatives. Finally, one commenter asked that EPA broaden its efforts across its programs to identify additional requirements, including other CAA and RCRA requirements, where mercury-containing industrial thermometers are referenced directly and provide more comprehensive flexibility under these requirements. EPA agrees with the commenters on their request that the Agency continue to encourage ASTM to evaluate its standards that require the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers, including informing the public on what thermometer applications no longer require mercury devices for accurate and reproducible measurement. EPA will continue to work with the States and ASTM to evaluate mercury alternatives and to make such evaluations available to the public. EPA also agrees to evaluate the additional requirements under CAA and RCRA to use mercury-containing industrial thermometers and provide flexibility where possible. IV. Changes Based on Incorporation by Reference Requirements A. Removal of Amendments to 40 CFR Parts 63 and 86 In a separate document published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     issue of March 21, 2011 (76 FR 15554) (FRL-9273-5), EPA finalized an amendment to § 63.14 and to Table 6 in subpart DDDDD of 40 CFR part 63, that removed the ASTM standard D5865-03a and replaced it with the ASTM standard D5865-10a. Therefore, the amendments to 40 CFR part 63 published in the proposed rule for this document are no longer necessary. Additionally, at this time EPA does not plan to amend 40 CFR part 86 due to issues related to the Office of the Federal Register's (OFR) requirements for incorporation by reference. The incorporation by reference requirements to include the addition of ASTM standards D93-09 and D445-09 would require amendments to 40 CFR part 86 not initially targeted by this rulemaking. 
                    ( print page 2459)
                    Those amendments would significantly expand the scope of the rulemaking beyond issues related to the flexible use of mercury-free thermometers. EPA plans in the future to address the amendments proposed for 40 CFR part 86 and OFR's incorporation by reference requirements for 40 CFR part 86. B. Formatting Changes to Final Rule The regulatory text of this final rule is significantly changed in appearance from the proposed rule. These changes in the regulatory text were made in order to comply with the Office of the Federal Register's (OFR) incorporation by reference requirements found in 1 CFR part 51. Approval by the OFR Director was based on meeting the requirements for new approvals, 17 ASTM and ISO standards and 1 OECD guideline, which are used to perform the testing required by this final rule, and changing the format for the existing centralized incorporation by reference sections affected by this final rule. These formatting changes in the regulatory text are non-substantive and do not change the meaning of the regulatory amendments originally proposed. V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review This is not a “significant regulatory action” under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011). B. Paperwork Reduction Act This action does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 
                    *et seq.*). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information that requires the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval under PRA, unless it has been approved by OMB and displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and included on the related collection instrument, or form, if applicable. C. Regulatory Flexibility Act Pursuant to section 605(b) of RFA (5 U.S.C. 601 
                    *et seq.*), I hereby certify that this final rule does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Under RFA, small entity is defined as: 1. A small business that is further defined by the Small Business Administration's (SBA) regulations at 13 CFR 121.201 using either the number of employees or annual receipts for the businesses affected by the regulation, which for this final rule includes any business that is primarily engaged in the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers in laboratories, for field analysis (e.g., including usage at petroleum storage or refining facilities), or for other industrial applications (see also Unit I. and the applicable provisions in the regulations affected by this final rule). 2. A small governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, school district, or special district with a population of less than 50,000. 3. A small organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise which is independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field. In making this determination, the impact of concern is any significant adverse economic impact on small entities because the primary purpose of regulatory flexibility analysis is to identify and address regulatory alternatives “which minimize any significant economic impact of the rule on small entities.” 5 U.S.C. 603 and 604. Thus, an agency may certify under RFA when the rule relieves regulatory burden, or otherwise has no expected economic impact on small entities subject to the rule. The revisions in this final rule will provide flexibility to affected entities by allowing the use of mercury-free thermometers, without mandating their use. It does not otherwise amend or impose any other requirements. As such, this final rule will not have any adverse economic impact on any entities, large or small. D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act This final rule contains no Federal mandates under the provisions of Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) for State, local, or Tribal governments or the private sector. The action imposes no enforceable duty on any State, local, or Tribal governments or the private sector and does not contain any unfunded mandate, or otherwise have any effect on small governments subject to the requirements of sections 202, 203, 204, or 205 of UMRA. E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism This action will not have federalism implications because it is not expected to have a substantial direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to this action. F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian Tribal Governments This action will not have Tribal implications because it is not expected to have substantial direct effects on Indian Tribes, will not significantly or uniquely affect the communities of Indian Tribal governments, and does not involve or impose any requirements that affect Indian Tribes, as specified in Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). Accordingly, the requirements of Executive Order 13175 do not apply to this action. G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of the Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does not establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or safety risks, nor is it an “economically significant regulatory action” as defined by Executive Order 12866. H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because it is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866. I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note), directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, 
                    ( print page 2460)
                    sampling procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and applicable voluntary consensus standards. ASTM standards constitute voluntary consensus standards and, as such, NTTAA directly applies to this final rule. With this final rule, EPA is adding to existing EPA regulations the most current versions of applicable ASTM standards that allow flexibility in the use of mercury-containing industrial thermometers and in the spirit of NTTAA plans to work closely with ASTM to address the remaining standards referenced within EPA regulations that require the use of mercury-containing thermometers. J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations This action does not have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects on minority or low-income populations because it does not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the environment. Therefore, this action does not involve special consideration of environmental justice-related issues as specified in Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). VI. Congressional Review Act The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 
                    *et seq.,*
                     generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . This rule is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). List of Subjects in 40 CFR Parts 49, 60, 75, 89, 92, 94, 761, and 1065 Environmental protection
