Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 156 / Friday, August 13, 2010 / Notices 49487 

Notice: 

In accordance with Section 309(a) of 

the Clean Air Act, EPA is required to 

make its comments on EISs issued by 

other Federal agencies public. 

Historically, EPA has met this mandate 

by publishing weekly notices of 

availability of EPA comments, which 

includes a brief summary of EPA’s 

comment letters, in the Federal 

Register. Since February 2008, EPA has 

been including its comment letters on 

EISs on its Web site at: http:// 

www.epa.gov/compliance/nepa/ 

eisdata.html. Including the entire EIS 

comment letters on the Web site 

satisfies the Section 309(a) requirement 

to make EPA’s comments on EISs 

available to the public. Accordingly, on 

March 31, 2010, EPA discontinued the 

publication of the notice of availability 

of EPA comments in the Federal 

Register.

Nanomaterial Case Study: Nanoscale 

Silver in Disinfectant Spray 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of public comment 

period. 

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 45-day 

public comment period for the draft 

document ‘‘Nanomaterial Case Study: 

Nanoscale Silver in Disinfectant Spray’’ 

(EPA/600/R–10/081). The document is 

being issued by the National Center for 

Environmental Assessment within 

EPA’s Office of Research and 

Development. The draft is intended to 

serve as part of a process to help 

identify and prioritize scientific and 

technical information that could be used 

in conducting comprehensive 

environmental assessments of selected 

nanomaterials. It does not attempt to 

draw conclusions regarding potential 

environmental risks of nanoscale silver; 

rather, it aims to identify what is known 

and unknown about nanoscale silver to 

support future assessment efforts. 

When finalizing the draft document, 

EPA intends to consider any public 

comments that EPA receives in 

accordance with this notice. 

EPA is releasing this draft document 

solely for the purpose of predissemination review under applicable 

information quality guidelines. This 

document has not been formally 

disseminated by EPA. It does not 

represent and should not be construed 

to represent any Agency policy or 

determination. 

The draft document is available via 

the Internet on the NCEA home page 

under the Recent Additions and the 

Data and Publications menus at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ncea. 

DATES: The 45-day public comment 

period begins August 13, 2010, and ends 

September 27, 2010. Technical 

comments should be in writing and 

must be received by EPA by September 

27, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About the Project/ 

Document 

Engineered nanoscale materials 

(nanomaterials) have been described as 

having at least one dimension between 

1 and 100 nanometers (nm). They often 

have novel or unique properties that can 

arise from their small size. Like all 

technological developments, 

nanomaterials offer the potential for 

both benefits and risks. The assessment 

of such risks and benefits requires 

information, but given the nascent state 

of nanotechnology, much remains to be 

learned about the characteristics and 

effects of nanomaterials. The draft 

document ‘‘Nanomaterial Case Study: 

Nanoscale Silver in Disinfectant Spray’’ 

is intended to highlight what is known 

and unknown about nanoscale silver 

(nano-Ag) as part of a process to identify 

and prioritize information gaps relevant 

to assessing the broad environmental 

implications, including potential 

ecological as well as human health 

impacts, of nanomaterials. 

The complex properties of various 

nanomaterials make it difficult to 

evaluate them in the abstract or with 

generalizations. Thus, this document 

focuses on a specific example of nanoAg in disinfectant spray products. This 

‘‘case study’’ does not represent a 

completed or even a preliminary 

assessment; rather, it uses an assessment 

framework known as comprehensive 

environmental assessment (CEA), which 

starts with the product life cycle but 

encompasses fate and transport 

processes in various environmental 

media, exposure-dose characterization, 

and ecological and health effects, as 

well as other direct and indirect 

ramifications of both primary and 

secondary substances or stressors 

associated with a nanomaterial. The 

CEA approach is both a framework and 

a process; the latter aspect employs a 

collective judgment process that will be 

the subject of a future announcement. 

Previous EPA case studies focused on 

nanoscale titanium dioxide used in 

drinking water treatment and in topical 

sunscreen (U.S. EPA. Nanomaterial Case 

Studies: Nanoscale Titanium Dioxide in 

Water Treatment and in Topical 

Sunscreen (External Review Draft). U.S.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

The U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency plans to create a Privacy Act 

system of records to document the 

Agency’s decisions on applications filed 

requesting certification to apply 

restricted use pesticides (RUP) under 

certification plans administered by EPA 

regional offices or the Office of Pesticide 

Programs. The types of information in 

the system include: (1) Contact 

information (e.g., name, address, 

telephone number, e-mail address); (2) 

identification information (e.g., birth 

date, proof of identification (e.g., 

driver’s license no.)), physical 

description (e.g., height, weight, gender, 

race)) (3) certification information (e.g., 

EPA certified applicator number, 

certification type (private or 

commercial), certification categories 

(e.g., aerial, aquatic, fumigation), 

certification issuance and expiration 

dates, and (4) information regarding 

qualifications (e.g., scores from EPA 

certification examinations; records of 

training and continuing education; state, 

tribal or other federal agency 

certification number(s), types, 

categories, issuance and expiration 

dates; records of compliance with 

federal, state and tribal pesticide laws). 

Some of this information is provided by 

the pesticide applicators applying for 

EPA certification, and some is generated 

during the certification process. 

The above information will be 

contained in one or more databases 

(such as Lotus Notes) that reside on 

servers in EPA offices. The database(s) 

may be specific to one particular 

pesticide applicator certification plan, 

or may encompass several EPA 

pesticide applicator certification plans. 

Records maintained in the database will 

include applications, certifications, 

Agency decisions and correspondence 

related to applicators seeking and 

maintaining EPA certifications. 

Records protected under the Privacy 

Act are subject to Agency-wide security 

requirements governing all database 

systems at EPA. Privacy is maintained 

by limiting access to database systems 

containing personal information. Access 

to any such database system is limited 

to system administrators, individuals 

responsible for evaluating the 

applications and issuing the EPA 

certification, and program personnel 

responsible for data entry. Physical 

access to the area where certifications 

are processed is limited to EPA 

employees with building key cards. 

Paper applications are stored in a locked 

cabinet when not in use. System 

administrators will routinely disclose 

certain personal information (e.g.,
