2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

https://www.epa.gov/dockets/ 

comments.html. 

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low-income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticides 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. Background 

Registration review is EPA’s periodic 

review of pesticide registrations to 

ensure that each pesticide continues to 

satisfy the statutory standard for 

registration, that is, the pesticide can 

perform its intended function without 

unreasonable adverse effects on human 

health or the environment. As part of 

the registration review process, the 

Agency has completed proposed interim 

decisions for spirodiclofen. Through 

this program, EPA is ensuring that each 

pesticide’s registration is based on 

current scientific and other knowledge, 

including its effects on human health 

and the environment. 

III. Authority 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of spirodiclofen pursuant to 

section 3(g) of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) 

and the Procedural Regulations for 

Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, 

subpart C. Section 3(g) of FIFRA 

provides, among other things, that the 

registrations of pesticides are to be 

reviewed every 15 years. Under FIFRA, 

a pesticide product may be registered or 

remain registered only if it meets the 

statutory standard for registration given 

in FIFRA section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 

136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance 

with widespread and commonly 

recognized practice, the pesticide 

product must perform its intended 

function without unreasonable adverse 

effects on the environment; that is, 

without any unreasonable risk to man or 

the environment, or a human dietary 

risk from residues that result from the 

use of a pesticide in or on food. 

IV. What action is the Agency taking? 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice 

announces the availability of EPA’s 

proposed interim decision for 

spirodiclofen as shown in the following 

table and opens a 60-day public 

comment period on the proposed 

interim registration review decision. 

TABLE—PROPOSED INTERIM DECISION BEING MADE AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT

Registration review case name and 

number Docket ID No. Chemical review manager and contact information 

Spirodiclofen (Case 7443) .................. EPA–HQ–OPP–2014–0262 Veronica Dutch, dutch.veronica@epa.gov, (202) 566–2352. 

The registration review docket for a 

pesticide includes earlier documents 

related to the registration review case. 

For example, the review opened with a 

Preliminary Work Plan, for public 

comment. A Final Work Plan was 

placed in the docket following public 

comment on the Preliminary Work Plan. 

The documents in the docket describe 

EPA’s rationales for conducting 

additional risk assessments for the 

registration review of spirodiclofen, as 

well as the Agency’s subsequent risk 

findings and consideration of possible 

risk mitigation measures. This proposed 

interim registration review decision is 

supported by the rationale included in 

those documents. Following public 

comment, the Agency will issue an 

interim or final registration review 

decision for spirodiclofen. 

The registration review final rule at 40 

CFR 155.58(a) provides for a minimum 

60-day public comment period on all 

proposed interim registration review 

decisions. This comment period is 

intended to provide an opportunity for 

public input and a mechanism for 

initiating any necessary amendments to 

the proposed interim decision. All 

comments should be submitted using 

the methods in ADDRESSES and must be 

received by EPA on or before the closing 

date. These comments will become part 

of the docket for spirodiclofen. 

Comments received after the close of the 

comment period will be marked ‘‘late.’’ 

EPA is not required to consider these 

late comments. 

The Agency will carefully consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may provide a ‘‘Response to 

Comments Memorandum’’ in the 

docket. The interim registration review 

decision will explain the effect that any 

comments had on the interim decision 

and provide the Agency’s response to 

significant comments.

Substances Under the American 

Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 

2020 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is providing notice that 

on March 31, 2022, the Agency issued 

hydrofluorocarbon allowances to 

applicants that met the applicable

1Regulated substance means a hydrofluorocarbon 

listed in the table contained in subsection (c)(1) of 

the AIM Act and a substance included as a 

regulated substance by the Administrator under the 

authority granted in subsection (c)(3). The list of 

regulated substances is available at Appendix A to 

40 CFR part 84. 

criteria from the set-aside pool 

established in EPA’s 2021 final rule 

titled Phasedown of 

Hydrofluorocarbons: Establishing the 

Allowance Allocation and Trading 

Program under the American Innovation 

and Manufacturing Act. In accordance 

with this final rule, the Agency 

redistributed allowances remaining in 

the set-aside pool to entities that 

received general pool production and 

consumption allowances on October 1, 

2021. Both the set-aside allocation and 

the general pool reallocation were 

announced on the Agency’s website on 

March 31, 2022, and entities were 

notified either by letter or electronic 

mail of the allocation decisions. The 

Agency also provided notice to certain 

companies on March 31, 2022, that the 

Agency intends to retire an identified 

set of those companies’ allowances in 

accordance with the administrative 

consequences provisions established in 

the final rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In EPA’s 

rulemaking titled Phasedown of 

Hydrofluorocarbons: Establishing the 

Allowance Allocation and Trading 

Program under the American Innovation 

and Manufacturing Act (86 FR 55116, 

Oct. 5, 2021), EPA established a setaside pool of allowances and codified at 

40 CFR 84.15 criteria related to 

eligibility for the set-aside pool 

allowances, and how EPA would 

determine the level of allowances to 

allocate to each eligible entity. On 

March 31, 2022, EPA issued allowance 

allocations consistent with this section 

and posted the updated list of allowance 

holders on its website at https://

www.epa.gov/climate-hfcs-reduction. 

The set-aside pool was established for 

three general categories of applicants: 

Application-specific end users (40 CFR 

84.15(b)(1)), entities that imported 

regulated substances 1 in 2020 that were 

not required to report under 40 CFR part 

98 (i.e., the Greenhouse Gas Reporting 

Program (GHGRP)) and were not issued 

allowances as of October 1, 2021 (40 

CFR 84.15(c)(1)), and new market 

entrants (40 CFR 84.15(c)(2)). 

Under 40 CFR 84.15, applicationspecific allowances from the set-aside 

pool are subject to the same conditions 

for such allowances in 40 CFR 84.13. 

These allowances are drawn from both 

the production and consumption setaside allowance pools, and EPA is 

issuing application-specific allowances 

from the set-aside pool to applicants 

that qualify as end users in the 

applications established by the 

American Innovation and 

Manufacturing (AIM) Act. The following 

applications were eligible for 

application-specific allowances under 

the set-aside pool: Propellants in 

metered dose inhalers (MDI), defense 

sprays, structural composite preformed 

polyurethane foam for marine use and 

trailer use, etching of semiconductor 

material or wafers and the cleaning of 

chemical vapor deposition chambers 

within the semiconductor 

manufacturing sector, and onboard 

aerospace fire suppression. 

Consistent with the provisions in 40 

CFR 84.15, EPA has allocated set-aside 

pool application-specific allowances to 

the entities listed in Table 1.

EPA received three applications by 

the deadline of December 6, 2021, for 

allowances under the second set-aside 

category. Under the provisions at 40 

CFR 84.15(c)(1), in order to be eligible 

for this category an applicant had to: 

(1) Import regulated substances in 

2020; 

(2) not be required to report under 40 

CFR part 98 (i.e., the GHGRP); and 

(3) not receive allowances from EPA 

on October 1, 2021. 

All three applicants, MEK Chemical 

Corporation, Siemens Industry, and 

Wegochem International, were denied 

allowances because they are ineligible 

under 40 CFR 84.15(c)(1). The entities 

were required to report to the GHGRP 

under 40 CFR part 98. 

Under the third set-aside category, for 

new market entrants, 45 entities 

submitted applications by the deadline 

of December 6, 2021. EPA is denying 

applications from seven entities, 

CAILLECH LLC, ChemPenn, LLC, 

ComStar International Inc., ISOSTU 

LLC, J&J AC Supply Inc, Kim Stilwell, 

and Peter Williams DBA New Era 

Group, because they are ineligible under 

40 CFR 84.15(c)(2). The applicants were 

ineligible for at least one of the 

following reasons: 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 65 / Tuesday, April 5, 2022 / Notices 19685 

(1) Did not submit complete 

applications, 

(2) were not newly importing 

regulated substances, or 

(3) shared corporate or common 

ownership, corporate affiliation in the 

past five years, or familial relations with 

entities receiving allowances on October 

1, 2021. 

Consistent with the provisions in 40 

CFR 84.15, EPA has allocated 

allowances for new market entrants to 

the entities listed in Table 2.

EPA notes the restrictions in 40 CFR 

84.15(e)(3) that new market entrants are 

allocated up to 0.2 MMTEVe (200,000 

MTEVe) for calendar year 2022. 

Accordingly, entities that requested 

more than 200,000 MTEVe as a new 

market were allocated the regulatory 

maximum of 200,000 MTEVe. And, in 

accordance with 40 CFR 84.15(f)(1) setaside allowances allocated to new 

market entrants cannot be transferred. 

After making the allocations noted in 

Tables 1 and 2, there were 2,198,889.9 

production allowances and 482,646.5 

consumption allowances remaining in 

the set-aside pool. In accordance with 

40 CFR 84.15(e)(4), those allowances 

have been distributed to the October 1, 

2021, general pool allowance holders on 

a pro rata basis. EPA has made this pro 

rata distribution as shown in Tables 3 

and 4.

This allocation of set-aside 

allowances should not be construed to 

limit the ability of EPA to apply 

administrative consequences under 40 

CFR 84.35, or to limit the ability of the 

United States to exercise any authority 

to pursue enforcement action under the 

AIM Act and 40 CFR part 84, or under 

other federal laws or regulations. 

For example, if future information 

reveals an entity provided false, 

inaccurate, or misleading information or 

did not disclose financial or familial 

relationships between a new entrant and 

another allowance holder, EPA may 

pursue administrative consequences 

and refer the entity for any and all 

appropriate enforcement actions. 

On March 31, 2022, EPA also 

provided notice to three entities of the 

Agency’s intent to take administrative 

consequences in accordance with 40 

CFR 84.35 and retire an identified set of 

those companies’ allowances. Using this 

authority, EPA can retire, revoke, or 

withhold the allocation of allowances, 

or ban a company from receiving, 

transferring, or conferring allowances. 

Judicial Review 

The AIM Act provides that certain 

sections of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

‘‘shall apply to’’ the AIM Act and ‘‘any 

rule, rulemaking, or regulation 

promulgated by the Administrator of 

[EPA] pursuant to [the AIM Act] as 

though [the AIM Act] were expressly 

included in title VI of [the CAA].’’ Id. 

§ 7675(k)(1)(C). Among the applicable 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 65 / Tuesday, April 5, 2022 / Notices 19687 

2 In deciding whether to invoke the exception by 

making and publishing a finding that this final 

action is based on a determination of nationwide 

scope or effect, the Administrator has also taken 

into account a number of policy considerations, 

including his judgment balancing the benefit of 

obtaining the D.C. Circuit’s authoritative centralized 

review versus allowing development of the issue in 

other contexts and the best use of Agency resources. 

3 In the report on the 1977 Amendments that 

revised section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, Congress 

noted that the Administrator’s determination that 

the ‘‘nationwide scope or effect’’ exception applies 

would be appropriate for any action that has a 

scope or effect beyond a single judicial circuit. See 

H.R. Rep. No. 95–294 at 323, 324, reprinted in 1977 

U.S.C.C.A.N. 1402–03. 

sections of the CAA is section 307, id. 

§ 7607, which includes provisions on 

judicial review. Section 307(b)(1) 

provides, in part, that petitions for 

review must be filed in the United 

States Court of Appeals for the District 

of Columbia Circuit: (i) When the 

agency action consists of ‘‘nationally 

applicable regulations promulgated, or 

final actions taken, by the 

Administrator,’’ or (ii) when such action 

is locally or regionally applicable, but 

‘‘such action is based on a 

determination of nationwide scope or 

effect and if in taking such action the 

Administrator finds and publishes that 

such action is based on such a 

determination.’’ For locally or regionally 

applicable final actions, the CAA 

reserves to the EPA complete discretion 

whether to invoke the exception in (ii). 

This final action is ‘‘nationally 

applicable’’ within the meaning of CAA 

section 307(b)(1). In the alternative, to 

the extent a court finds this final action 

to be locally or regionally applicable, 

the Administrator is exercising the 

complete discretion afforded to him 

under the CAA to make and publish a 

finding that this action is based on a 

determination of ‘‘nationwide scope or 

effect’’ within the meaning of CAA 

section 307(b)(1).2 This final action 

consisted of the Agency issuing 

hydrofluorocarbon allowances to 

applicants that met the applicable 

criteria from the set-aside pool and 

redistributing allowances remaining in 

the set-aside pool to entities that 

received general pool production and 

consumption allowances on October 1, 

2021. The applicants and entities are 

located throughout the country in 

varying judicial circuits.3 This final 

action is based on a common core of 

factual findings concerning the 

eligibility of applicants to the set-aside 

pool. For these reasons, this final action 

is nationally applicable or, alternatively, 

the Administrator is exercising the 

complete discretion afforded to him by 

the CAA and hereby finds that this final 

action is based on a determination of 

nationwide scope or effect for purposes 

of CAA section 307(b)(1) and is hereby 

publishing that finding in the Federal 

Register. 

Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, 

petitions for judicial review of this 

action must be filed in the United States 

Court of Appeals for the District of
