**Revisions to EPA’s Rule on Protections for Subjects in Human**  **Research Involving Pesticides; Notification to the Secretary of**  **Agriculture**

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

**ACTION :**  Notification to the Secretary of Agriculture.

**SUMMARY :**  This document notifies the public that the Administrator of EPA has forwarded to the Secretary of Agriculture a draft proposed rule as required by section 25(a) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). As described in the Agency’s semi-annual Regulatory Agenda, the draft proposed rule would amend the portions of EPA’s rules for the protection of human subjects of research that apply to third parties who conduct or support research for pesticides involving intentional exposure of human subjects, and to persons who submit the results of human research for pesticides to EPA. EPA agreed to propose these amendments as a result of a settlement agreement resolving a judicial challenge to the promulgation of these rules in 2006, and is now seeking comments on these draft proposed amendments from the Secretary of Agriculture. The draft proposed amendments would clarify the applicability of the rules to human testing for pesticides submitted to EPA under any statute, would disallow consent by a legally authorized representative of participants in pesticide studies who cannot consent for themselves, and would identify specific considerations to be addressed in EPA science and ethics reviews of proposed and completed human research for pesticides, based on the recommendations of the National Academy of Sciences and on the Nuremberg Code.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. Does this action apply to me?

This action is directed to the public in general. It simply announces the submission of a draft proposed rule to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and does not otherwise affect any specific entities. This action may, however, be of particular interest to pesticide registrants (NAICS code 325320) who sponsor or conduct human research for pesticides, and to other entities that sponsor or conduct human research for pesticides (NAICS code 541710). Since other entities may also be interested, the Agency has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be interested in this action.

Section 25(a)(2) of FIFRA requires the Administrator to provide the Secretary of Agriculture with a copy of any proposed regulation at least 60 days before signing it for publication in the Federal Register. The draft proposed rule is not available to the public until after it has been signed by EPA. If the Secretary comments in writing regarding the draft proposed rule within 30-days after receiving it, the Administrator shall include the comments of the Secretary and the Administrator’s response to those comments in the proposed rule when it is published in the Federal Register. If the Secretary does not comment in writing within 30 days after receiving

the draft proposed rule, the Administrator may sign the proposed regulation for publication in the Federal Register anytime after the 30-day period. III. Do any statutory and executive order reviews apply to this notification?

**2017 and Later Model Year Light Duty Vehicle GHG Emissions and CAFE**  **Standards; Notice of Intent**

**AGENCIES :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

**ACTION :**  Notice of intent to conduct a joint rulemaking.

**SUMMARY :**  On May 21, 2010, President Obama issued a Presidential Memorandum requesting that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), on behalf of the Department of Transportation develop, through notice and comment rulemaking, a coordinated National Program under the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), as amended by the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) to improve fuel efficiency and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions of light-duty vehicles for model years 2017–2025. President Obama requested that the agencies issue a Notice of Intent to issue a proposed rule that announces plans for setting stringent fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions standards for light-duty vehicles of model year 2017 and beyond. This joint Notice describes the agencies’ initial assessment of potential levels of stringency for a National Program for model years 2017– 2025, and describes additional work that the agencies will undertake over the next two months to refine this assessment further. This Notice fulfills that request and discusses the agencies’ plans to issue a Supplemental Notice of Intent by November 30, 2010 that will describe plans for the National Program, including an updated analysis of potential GHG and fuel economy standards for model years 2017–2025. This joint Notice also announces the plans by the two agencies to propose such a coordinated National Program by the fall of 2011.
