[FRL–9967–98–OW] 

Clean Water Act; Contractor Access to 

Confidential Business Information 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of Intended Transfer of 

Confidential Business Information to 

Contractor. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) intends to transfer 

confidential business information (CBI) 

collected from the steam electric power 

generating industry to ICF International 

(ICF). Transfer of the information will 

allow the contractor to support EPA in 

its reconsideration of effluent 

limitations guidelines and standards 

promulgated for the Steam Electric 

Power Generating Point Source Category 

on November 3, 2015. The information 

being transferred was or will be 

collected under the authority of section 

308 of the Clean Water Act (CWA). 

Interested persons may submit 

comments on this intended transfer of 

information to the address noted below. 

DATES: Comments on the transfer of data 

are due September 27, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be sent to 

M. Ahmar Siddiqui, Document Control 

Officer, Engineering and Analysis 

Division (4303T), U.S. EPA, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, 

DC 20460. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: M. 

Ahmar Siddiqui, Document Control 

Officer, at (202) 566–1044, or via email 

at siddiqui.ahmar@epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has 

transferred CBI to various contractors 

and subcontractors over the history of 

the effluent guidelines program under 

40 CFR 2.302(h). EPA determined that 

this transfer was necessary to enable the 

contractors and subcontractors to 

perform their work in supporting EPA 

in planning, developing, and reviewing 

effluent guidelines and standards for 

certain industries. 

Today, pursuant to 40 CFR 

2.302(h)(2), EPA is giving notice that it 

will be transferring CBI to ICF (located 

in Fairfax, VA), which operates under 

contract number EP–C–16–011. The 

purpose of this transfer is to support 

economic analysis support for EPA in 

its reconsideration of effluent 

limitations guidelines and standards for 

the Steam Electric Power Generating 

Point Source Category established in 

2015. 

All EPA contractor, subcontractor, 

and consultant personnel are bound by 

the requirements and sanctions 

contained in their contracts with EPA 

and in EPA’s confidentiality regulations 

found at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. ICF 

will adhere to an EPA-approved security 

plan which describes procedures to 

protect CBI. ICF will apply the 

procedures in this plan to CBI 

previously gathered by EPA and to CBI 

that may be gathered in the future. The 

security plan specifies that contractor 

personnel are required to sign nondisclosure agreements and are briefed 

on appropriate security procedures 

before they are permitted access to CBI. 

No person is automatically granted 

access to CBI: A need to know must 

exist. 

The information that will be 

transferred to ICF consists of 

information previously collected by 

EPA to support the development of 

effluent limitations guidelines and 

standards under the CWA for the Steam 

Electric Power Generating Point Source 

Category and any that may be collected 

in the future under the authority of 

section 308 of the CWA or voluntarily 

submitted (e.g., in comments in 

response to a Federal Register notice), 

as is necessary to enable ICF to support 

EPA’s reconsideration of the 

aforementioned effluent limitations 

guidelines and standards.

Interim Registration Review Decision 

for 22 Sulfonylurea Pesticides; Notice 

of Availability 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of EPA’s interim registration 

review decision for the 22 sulfonylurea 

herbicide chemicals listed in the Table 

in Unit II of this Notice. It also 

announces the case closure for 

desmedipham (Case 2150 and Docket ID 

Number: EPA–HQ–OPP–2010–1044), 

Busan 1024 (case 5026 and Docket ID 

Number: EPA–HQ–OPP–2006–0243), 

Bis (trichloromethyl) sulfone (BTS) 

(Case 2055 and Docket ID Number: 

EPA–HQ–OPP–2011–0614), Perboric 

Acid (Case 5007 and Docket ID Number: 

EPA–HQ–OPP–2012–0006), and 

profenofos (Case 2540 and Docket ID 

Number: EPA–HQ–OPP–2008–0345) 

because all of the U.S. registrations for 

these pesticides have been canceled. 

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 

causing unreasonable adverse effects on 

human health or the environment. 

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.

contact: The Chemical Review Manager 

for the pesticide of interest identified in 

the table in Unit II of SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION.

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), this 

notice announces the availability of 

EPA’s interim registration review 

decision for the 22 sulfonylurea 

chemicals listed in the Table in Unit II. 

A single interim decision document

dockets identified in the Table in Unit 

II. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.57, a 

registration review decision is the 

Agency’s determination whether a 

pesticide meets, or does not meet, the 

standard for registration in Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA). EPA has considered the 

chemicals listed in the following Table 

in light of the FIFRA standard for 

registration. The interim registration 

review decisions are supported by 

rationales included in the docket 

established for each chemical. 

In addition to the interim registration 

review decision document, the 

registration review docket for the 

chemicals listed in the Table also 

includes other relevant documents 

related to the registration review of 

these cases. The proposed interim 

registration review decision was posted 

to the docket and the public was invited 

to submit any comments or new 

information.
