Modification of Significant New Use

Rules

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is modifying the

significant new use rule (SNUR)

promulgated under section 5(a)(2) of the

Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)

for 1,3-propanediamine, N, N’-1,2-

ethanediylbis-, polymer with 2,4,6-

trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, reaction

products with N-butyl-2,2,6,6-

tetramethyl-4-piperidinamine based on

a modification to the TSCA 5(e) consent

order regulating the substance. EPA is

modifying this rule based on receipt of

toxicity data.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of

this rule is January 19, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the

Federal Register of August 15, 1990 (55

FR 33296), EPA issued a SNUR (FRL–

3741–8) establishing significant new

uses for 1,3-propanediamine, N, N’-1,2-

ethanediylbis-, polymer with 2,4,6-

trichloro-1,3,5-triazine, reaction

products with N-butyl-2,2,6,6-

tetramethyl-4-piperidinamine based on

the section 5(e) consent order for the

substance. Because of additional data

EPA has received for this substance,

EPA is modifying the SNUR.

I. Background

The Agency proposed the

modification of the SNUR (FRL–4919–6)

for this substance in the Federal

Register of May 30, 1995 (60 FR 28075).

The background and reasons for the

modification of the SNUR are set forth

in the preamble to the proposed

modification. The Agency received no

public comment concerning the

proposed modification. As a result EPA

is modifying this SNUR.

II. Objectives and Rationale of

Modification of the Rule

During review of the premanufacture

notice (PMN) submitted for the

chemical substance that is the subject of

this modification, EPA concluded that

regulation was warranted under section

5(e) of TSCA pending the development

of information sufficient to make a

reasoned evaluation of the health and

environmental effects of the substances.

EPA identified the tests considered

necessary to evaluate the risks of the

substances and identified the protective

equipment necessary to protect any

workers who may be exposed to the

substances. The basis for such findings

is in the rulemaking record referenced

in Unit III of this preamble. Based on

these findings, a section 5(e) consent

order modification was negotiated with

the PMN submitter.

In light of the petition to modify the

consent order and SNUR, the 90-day

subchronic test, the data on structurally

similar polycationic polymers, and the

recalculation of the risk assessment of

the PMN substances based on

information provided by the petitioner,

the Agency determined that it could no

longer support a finding that the PMN

substance may present an unreasonable

risk to human health or the environment

for the hazard communication and

respiratory protection requirements in

this modification. The modification of

SNUR provisions for the substances

designated herein is consistent with the

provisions of the section 5(e) order.

III. Rulemaking Record

The record for the rule which EPA is

modifying was established at OPPTS–

50582. This record includes information

considered by the Agency in developing

this rule and includes the modification

to consent orders to which the Agency

has responded with this modification.

A public version of the record,

without any Confidential Business

Information, is available in the OPPT

Non-Confidential Information Center

(NCIC) from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m., Monday

through Friday, except legal holidays.

The TSCA NCIC is located in the

Northeast Mall Basement Rm. B–607,

401 M St., SW., Washington, DC.

IV. Regulatory Assessment

Requirements

EPA is modifying the requirements of

this rule by eliminating several

requirements. Any costs or burdens

associated with this rule will be reduced

when the rule is modified. Therefore,

EPA finds that no additional

assessments of costs or burdens are

necessary under Executive Order 12866,

the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.

605(b)), or the Paperwork Reduction Act

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

43 CFR Public Land Order 7176

[CO–935–1430–01; COC–28255]

Partial Revocation of Secretarial Order

Dated May 23, 1946; Colorado

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

Interior.

ACTION: Public Land Order.

SUMMARY: This order partially revokes a

Secretarial order insofar as it affects 160

acres of public land withdrawn for the

Bureau of Reclamation’s GunnisonArkansas Project. The land is no longer

needed for reclamation purposes, and

the partial revocation will allow for

disposal by exchange. This action will

open 160 acres to surface entry and

mining unless closed by overlapping

withdrawals or temporary segregations

of record. The land has been and will

remain open to mineral leasing.

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 19, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Alexa Watson, BLM Colorado State

Office, 2850 Youngfield Street,

Lakewood, Colorado 80215–7076, 303–

239–3796.

By virtue of the authority vested in

the Secretary of the Interior by Section

204 of the Federal Land Policy and

Management Act of 1976, 43 U.S.C.

1714 (1988), it is ordered as follows:

1. The Secretarial Order dated May

23, 1946, which withdrew public land

for the Bureau of Reclamation’s

Gunnison-Arkansas Project, is hereby

revoked insofar as it affects the

following described land:

New Mexico Principal Meridian

T. 49 N., R. 5 W.,

Sec. 34, NE1⁄4.

The area described contains 160 acres in

Gunnison County.

2. At 9 a.m. on January 19, 1996, the

land described in paragraph 1 will be

opened to the operation of the public

land laws generally, subject to valid

existing rights, the provisions of existing

withdrawals, other segregations of

record, and the requirements of

applicable law. All valid applications

received at or prior to 9 a.m. on January

19, 1996, shall be considered as

simultaneously filed at that time. Those

received thereafter shall be considered

in the order of filing.

3. At 9 a.m. on January 19, 1996, the

land described in paragraph 1 will be

opened to location and entry under the

United States mining laws subject to

valid existing rights, the provisions of

existing withdrawals, other segregations

of record, and the requirements of

applicable law. Appropriation of any of

the land described in this order under

the general mining laws prior to the date

and time of restoration is unauthorized.

Any such attempted appropriation,

including attempted adverse possession

under 30 U.S.C. 38 (1988), shall vest no

rights against the United States. Acts

required to establish a location and to

initiate a right of possession are

governed by State law where not in

conflict with Federal law. The Bureau of

Land Management will not intervene in

disputes between rival locators over

possessory rights since Congress has

provided for such determinations in

local courts.

Dated: December 8, 1995.

Assistant Secretary of the Interior.

FEDERAL EMERGENCY

MANAGEMENT AGENCY

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket No. FEMA–7630]

List of Communities Eligible for the

Sale of Flood Insurance

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This rule identifies

communities participating in the

National Flood Insurance Program

(NFIP). These communities have

applied to the program and have agreed

to enact certain floodplain management

measures. The communities’

participation in the program authorizes

the sale of flood insurance to owners of

property located in the communities

listed.

EFFECTIVE DATES: The dates listed in the

third column of the table.

ADDRESSES: Flood insurance policies for

property located in the communities

listed can be obtained from any licensed

property insurance agent or broker

serving the eligible community, or from

the NFIP at: Post Office Box 6464,

Rockville, MD 20849, (800) 638–6620.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Robert F. Shea, Jr., Division Director,

Program Implementation Division,

Mitigation Directorate, 500 C Street,

SW., room 417, Washington, DC 20472,

(202) 646–3619.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP

enables property owners to purchase

flood insurance which is generally not

otherwise available. In return,

communities agree to adopt and

administer local floodplain management

measures aimed at protecting lives and

new construction from future flooding.

Since the communities on the attached

list have recently entered the NFIP,

subsidized flood insurance is now

available for property in the community.

In addition, the Director of the

Federal Emergency Management Agency

has identified the special flood hazard

areas in some of these communities by

publishing a Flood Hazard Boundary

Map (FHBM) or Flood Insurance Rate

Map (FIRM). The date of the flood map,

if one has been published, is indicated

in the third column of the table. In the

communities listed where a flood map
