SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

listening session is a new step in EPA’s 

revised IRIS process, announced on 

April 10, 2008, for development of 

human health assessments for inclusion 

on IRIS. The new process is posted on 

the NCEA home page under the Recent 

Additions menu at http://www.epa.gov/ 

ncea. Two listening sessions are 

scheduled under the new IRIS process. 

The first is during the public review of 

the draft assessment that includes only 

qualitative discussion. The second 

session is during the public review of 

the externally peer-reviewed draft 

assessment; if feasible, the completed 

draft of IRIS assessments will include 

both qualitative and quantitation 

elements. All IRIS assessments that are 

at the document development stage will 

follow the revised IRIS process, which 

includes the two listening sessions. 

However, when EPA initiated the new 

IRIS process, the draft assessment for 

Halogenated Platinum Salts and 

Platinum Compounds had already 

completed document development and 

been through several rounds of internal 

review. Therefore, EPA will only hold 

one listening session during the public 

review and comment period of the 

externally peer-reviewed draft.

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The Commission is not requesting that 

the respondents submit confidential 

information to the FCC. Respondents 

may, however, request confidential 

treatment for information they believe to 

be confidential under 47 CFR 0.459 of 

the Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: The 

Communications Act requires the 

Commission to inspect the radio 

installation of large cargo ships and 

certain passenger ships at least once a 

year to ensure that the radio installation 

is in compliance with the requirements 

of the Communications Act. 

Additionally, the Communications Act 

requires the inspection of small 

passenger ships at least once every five 

years. The Safety Convention (to which 

the United States is a signatory) also 

requires an annual inspection. However, 

the Safety Convention permits an 

Administrator to entrust the inspections 

to either surveyors nominated for the 

purpose or to organizations recognized 

by it. Therefore, the United States can 

have other parties conduct the radio 

inspection of vessels for compliance 

with the Safety Convention. The 

Commission allows FCC-licensed 

technicians to conduct these 

inspections. FCC-licensed technicians 

certify that the ship passed an 

inspection and issue a safety certificate. 

These safety certificates (FCC Forms 

806, 824, 827 and 829) indicate that the 

vessel complies with the 

Communications Act and the Safety 

Convention. These technicians are 

required to provide a summary of the 

results of the inspection in the ship’s 

log. In addition, the vessel’s owner, 

operator, or ship’s master must certify in 

the ship’s log that the inspection was
