staging area and concrete batch plant on 

state route 88 in Pioneer, California. 

State route 88 and Tiger Creek Road 

between Pioneer and the dam site 

would be used as a haul route. The 

existing spillway would be abandoned 

in place. The licensee expects 

construction to take approximately 2 

years. 

On July 26, 2024, the Commission 

issued a public notice for the proposed 

amendment. On August 2, August 5, 

and August 20, 2024, the California 

Department of Fish and Wildlife, the 

California State Water Resources 

Control Board, and the U.S. Department 

of the Interior filed notices of 

intervention, respectively. 

This notice identifies Commission 

staff’s intention to prepare an 

environmental assessment (EA) for the 

project.1 The planned schedule for the 

completion of the EA is June 18, 2025. 

Revisions to the schedule may be made 

as appropriate. The EA will be issued 

and made available for review by all 

interested parties during a 30-day public 

comment period. All comments filed on 

the EA will be reviewed by staff and 

considered in the Commission’s final 

decision on the proceeding.

Commission proceedings. OPP can help 

members of the public, including 

landowners, environmental justice 

communities, Tribal members, and 

others to access publicly available 

information and navigate Commission

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Executive Summary 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

This action provides information that 

is directed to the public in general. 

B. What action is the Agency taking? 

This document lists the statements of 

findings made by EPA after review of 

submissions under TSCA section 5(a) 

that certain new chemical substances or 

significant new uses are not likely to 

present an unreasonable risk of injury to 

health or the environment. This 

document presents statements of 

findings made by EPA during the 

reporting period. 

C. What is the Agency’s authority for 

taking this action? 

TSCA section 5(a)(3) requires EPA to 

review a submission under TSCA 

section 5(a) and make one of several 

specific findings pertaining to whether 

the substance may present unreasonable 

risk of injury to health or the 

environment. Among those potential 

findings is that the chemical substance 

or significant new use is not likely to 

present an unreasonable risk of injury to 

health or the environment per TSCA 

section 5(a)(3)(C). 

TSCA section 5(g) requires EPA to 

publish in the Federal Register a 

statement of its findings after its review 

of a submission under TSCA section 

5(a) when EPA makes a finding that a 

new chemical substance or significant 

new use is not likely to present an 

unreasonable risk of injury to health or 

the environment. Such statements apply 

to PMNs, MCANs, and SNUNs 

submitted to EPA under TSCA section 

5. 

Anyone who plans to manufacture 

(which includes import) a new chemical 

substance for a non-exempt commercial 

purpose and any manufacturer or 

processor wishing to engage in a use of 

a chemical substance designated by EPA 

as a significant new use must submit a 

notice to EPA at least 90 days before 

commencing manufacture of the new 

chemical substance or before engaging 

in the significant new use. 

The submitter of a notice to EPA for 

which EPA has made a finding of ‘‘not 

likely to present an unreasonable risk of 

injury to health or the environment’’ 

may commence manufacture of the 

chemical substance or manufacture or 

processing for the significant new use 

notwithstanding any remaining portion 

of the applicable review period. 

D. Does this action have any 

incremental economic impacts or 

paperwork burdens? 

No.

Several Pesticides; Notice of 

Availability 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of EPA’s interim registration 

review decision for chlorine gas. In 

addition, this notice announces the 

closure of the registration review case 

for metschnikowia fructicola strain 

NRRL Y–27328 because the last U.S. 

registrations for this pesticide have been 

canceled. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

For pesticide specific information, 

contact: The Chemical Review Manager 

for the pesticide of interest identified in 

Table 1 of Unit I. 

For general information on the 

registration review program, contact:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Purpose of This Notice 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), this

(202) 566–0635. 

Case Number 4022 ............................................

This notice also announces the 

closure of the registration review case 

for Metschnikowia fructicola strain 

NRRL Y–27328 (Case Number 6531) 

because the last U.S. registrations for 

these pesticides have been canceled. 

There is no docket number established 

for this registration review case as all 

products were cancelled in Case 6531 

before the registration review 

assessments were initiated. 

II. Background 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of the chemical listed in Table 1 

of Unit I pursuant to the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA) section 3(g) (7 U.S.C. 

136a(g)) and the Procedural Regulations 

for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 

155, subpart C. FIFRA section 3(g) 

provides, among other things, that 

pesticide registrations are to be 

reviewed every 15 years. Consistent 

with 40 CFR 155.57, in its final 

registration review decision, EPA will 

ultimately determine whether a 

pesticide continues to meet the 

registration standard in FIFRA section 

3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). As part of 

the registration review process, the 

Agency has completed interim or final 

registration review decisions for the 

pesticide in Table 1 of Unit I. 

Prior to completing the interim 

registration review decision in Table 1 

of Unit I, EPA posted the proposed 

interim decision for the chemical and 

invited the public to submit any 

comments or new information, 

consistent with 40 CFR 155.58(a). EPA 

considered and responded to any 

comments or information received 

during these public comment periods in 

the respective interim decision or final 

registration review decisions.

registration review program, see: https://
