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. 

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a 

docket for this action under docket 

identification (ID) number EPA–HQ– 

OPP–2010–0785. All documents in the 

docket are listed in the docket index 

available in http://www.regulations.gov.

the Internet and will be publicly 

available only in hard copy form.

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. If you have any questions 

regarding this action, consult the person 

listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT. 

II. What action is EPA taking? 

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

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 197 / Wednesday, October 13, 2010 / Proposed Rules 62739 

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? 

No. This document is not a proposed 

rule; it is merely a notification of 

submission to the Secretary of 

Agriculture. As such, none of the 

regulatory assessment requirements 

apply to this document.

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. 

DATES: Comments: In order for 

comments to be most helpful to this 

ongoing process of ultimately 

developing a proposed rulemaking, the 

agencies encourage parties wishing to 

comment on this Notice to submit their 

comments by October 31, 2010. See the
