**Office of Research and Development; Ambient Air Monitoring Reference and**  **Equivalent Methods: Designation of One New Reference Method for PM**  10

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency.

**ACTION :**  Notice of designation of a new reference method for monitoring ambient air quality. **SUMMARY :**  Notice is hereby given that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has designated, in accordance with 40 CFR Part 53, a new reference method for measuring concentrations of PM 10 in the ambient air.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Robert Vanderpool, Human Exposure and Atmospheric Sciences Division (MD–D205–03), National Exposure Research Laboratory, U.S. EPA, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711. Email: Vanderpool.Robert@
epa.gov.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  In accordance with regulations at 40 CFR Part 53, the EPA evaluates various methods for monitoring the concentrations of those ambient air pollutants for which EPA has established National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQSs), as set forth in 40 CFR Part 50. Monitoring methods that are determined to meet specific requirements for adequacy are designated by the EPA as either reference methods or equivalent methods (as applicable), thereby permitting their use under 40 CFR Part 58 by States and other agencies for determining compliance with the NAAQSs.

The EPA hereby announces the designation of a new reference method for measuring pollutant concentrations of particulate matter as PM 10 in the ambient air. This designation is made under the provisions of 40 CFR Part 53, as amended on August 31, 2011(76 FR 54326–54341).

The new reference method for PM 10 is a manual monitoring method based on a particular, commercially available PM 10 sampler, as specified in appendix J 40 CFR part 50. The newly designated reference method is identified as follows:

RFPS–0714–216, ‘‘Tisch Environmental Model TE-Wilbur10 PM 10 Low-Volume Air Particulate Sampler,’’ configured as a PM 10 reference method, with firmware version 1.70 or later and a TE-PM 10 -D PM 10 size-selective inlet, as specified in 40 CFR 50 Appendix L Figs. L–2 thru L–19, and operated for 24 sample periods at a flow rate of 16.67 L/min, using 47 mm PTFE membrane filter media, and in accordance with the Tisch Environmental Model TE-Wilbur10 PM 10 Low-Volume Air Particulate Sampler instruction manual and with the requirements and sample collection filters as specified in 40 CFR Part 50, Appendix J.

The application for reference method determination for the PM 10 method was received by the Office of Research and Development on May 28, 2014. This monitor is commercially available from the applicant, Tisch Environmental,

1 The NOITS was received by Repar Corporation on or before May 19, 2014, as evidenced by a USPS Return Receipt Card. Based on that receipt date, the 30-day deadline for Repar making a timely hearing request was June 18, 2014. The deadline passed without Repar filing a hearing request in response to the NOITS. As a result, Repar’s affected product registrations were suspended by operation of law. Inc., 145 S. Miami Avenue, Village of Cleves, OH 45002.

Test monitors representative of this method have been tested in accordance with the applicable test procedures specified in 40 CFR Part 53, as amended on August 31, 2011. After reviewing the results of those tests and other information submitted in the application, EPA has determined, in accordance with Part 53, that this method should be designated as a reference method. The information in the application will be kept on file, either at EPA’s National Exposure Research Laboratory, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27711 or in an approved archive storage facility, and will be available for inspection (with advance notice) to the extent consistent with 40 CFR Part 2 (EPA’s regulations implementing the Freedom of Information Act).

As a designated reference method, this method is acceptable for use by states and other air monitoring agencies under the requirements of 40 CFR Part 58, Ambient Air Quality Surveillance. For such purposes, the method must be used in strict accordance with the operation or instruction manual associated with the method and subject to any specifications and limitations (e.g., configuration or operational settings) specified in the applicable designated method description (see the identification of the method above).

Use of the method also should be in general accordance with the guidance and recommendations of applicable sections of the ‘‘Quality Assurance Handbook for Air Pollution Measurement Systems, Volume I,’’ EPA/ 600/R–94/038a and ‘‘Quality Assurance Handbook for Air Pollution Measurement Systems, Volume II, Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Program’’ EPA–454/B–08–003, December, 2008. Provisions concerning modification of such methods by users are specified under Section 2.8 (Modifications of Methods by Users) of Appendix C to 40 CFR Part 58.

Consistent or repeated noncompliance should be reported to: Director, Human Exposure and Atmospheric Sciences Division (MD–E205–01), National Exposure Research Laboratory, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina
27711.

Designation of this new reference method is intended to assist the States in establishing and operating their air quality surveillance systems under 40 CFR Part 58. Questions concerning the commercial availability or technical aspects of the method should be directed to the applicant. Dated: August 12, 2014. Jennifer Orme-Zavaleta, Director, National Exposure Research Laboratory.

**Notice of Intent To Suspend Certain Pesticide Registrations** 

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  This notice, pursuant the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), publishes a Notice of Intent to Suspend (NOITS) certain pesticide registrations issued by EPA. The NOITS was issued following the Agency’s issuance of a Data Call-In Notice (DCI), which required the registrant of the affected pesticide products containing a certain pesticide active ingredient to take appropriate steps to secure certain data, and following the registrant’s failure to submit these data or to take other appropriate steps to secure the required data. The subject data were determined to be required to maintain in effect the existing registrations of the affected products. Failure to comply with the data requirements of a DCI is a basis for suspension of the affected registrations under FIFRA.

**DATES :**  The NOITS included in this Federal Register notice will become a final and effective suspension order automatically by operation of law 30 days after the date of the registrant’s receipt of the mailed NOITS or, if the mailed NOITS is returned to the EPA Administrator as undeliverable, if delivery is refused, or if the EPA Administrator otherwise is unable to accomplish delivery to the registrant after making reasonable efforts to do so, the NOITS becomes effective 30 days after the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register , unless, during that time, a timely and adequate request for a hearing is made by a person adversely affected by the NOITS, or the registrant has satisfied the EPA Administrator that the registrant has complied fully with the requirements that served as a basis for the NOITS. 1 Unit IV. explains what must be done to avoid suspension under this notice (i.e., how to request a hearing or how to comply fully with the requirements that served as a basis for the NOITS).
