available on the Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA 
recommends that you include your name and other contact information in 
the body of your comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA

contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your 
comment. Electronic files should avoid the use of special characters, 
any form of encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the docket index 
available in regulations.govv. To access the electronic docket, go to

and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you 
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be

profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period 
deadline identified.

II. Background

    EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) has developed a commodity 
vocabulary database entitled Food and Feed Commodity Vocabulary. The 
database was developed to consolidate all the major OPP commodity 
vocabularies into one standardized vocabulary. As a result, all future 
pesticide tolerances issued under 40 CFR part 180 will use the 
``preferred commodity term'' as listed in the aforementioneddatabase. 
This is the nineth in a series of documents revising the terminology of 
commodity terms listed under 40 CFR part 180. Eight final rules, 
revising pesticide tolerance nomenclature, have published in the 
Federal Register: June 19, 2002 (67 FR 41802) (FRL-6835-2); June 21, 
2002 (67 FR 42392) (FRL-7180-1); July 1, 2003 (68 FR 39428) (FRL-7308-
9) and (68 FR 39435) (FRL-7316-9); December 13, 2006 (71 FR 74802) 
(FRL-8064-3); September 18, 2007 (72 FR 53134) (FRL-8126-5) (corrected 
on October 31, 2007 (72 FR 61535) (FRL-8151-4); and October 10, 2008 
(73 FR 60151) (FRL-8376-1). This revision process will establish a 
uniform presentation of existing commodity terms under 40 CFR part 180. 
Refer to the unit entitled Background in the nine documents listed 
above for descriptions of the commodity term revisions.

III. Statutory and Exective Order Reviews

    This document proposes technical amendments to the Code of Federal 
Regulations which have no substantive impact on the underlying 
regulations, and it does not otherwise impose or amend any 
requirements. As such, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has 
determined that a technical amendment is not a ``significant regulatory 
action'' subject to review by OMB under Executive Order 12866, entitled 
Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because 
this proposed rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order 
12866 due to its lack of significance, this proposed rule is not 
subject to Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That 
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, 
May 22, 2001). This proposed rule does not contain any information 
collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act 
(PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose any enforceable duty or 
contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the 
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4). Nor 
does it require any special considerations under Executive Order 12898, 
entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority 
Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994); 
or OMB review or any Agency action under Executive Order 13045, 
entitled Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and 
Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not 
involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration 
of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the 
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), 
Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). The Regulatory 
Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) generally requires an 
agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject 
to notice and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative 
Procedure Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the 
rule will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of 
small entities. Small entities include small businesses, small 
organizations, and small governmental organizations. After considering 
the economic impacts of today's proposed rule on small entities, I 
certify that this action will not have a significant economic impact on 
a substantial number of small entities. This action proposes technical 
amendments to the Code of Federal Regulations which have no substantive 
impact on the underyling regulations. This technical amendment will not 
have any negative economic impact on any entities, including small 
entities. In addition, the Agency has determined that this action will 
not have a substantial direct effect on States, on the relationship 
between the national government and the States, or on the distribution 
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, 
as specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 
43255, August 10, 1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop 
an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by State 
and local officials in the development of regulatory policies that have 
federalism implications.'' ``Policies that have federalism 
implications'' is defined in the Executive Order to include regulations 
that have ``substantial direct effects on the States, on the 
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the 
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of 
government.'' This proposed rule directly regulates growers, food 
processors, food handlers and food retailers, not States. This action 
does not alter the relationships or distribution of power and 
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions 
of section 408(n)(4) of the FFDCA. For these same reasons, the Agency 
has determined that this proposed rule does not have any ``tribal 
implications'' as described in Executive Order 13175, entitled 
Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 
67249, November 6, 2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to 
develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input 
by tribal officials in the development of regulatory policies that have 
tribal implications.'' ``Policies that have tribal implications'' is 
defined in the Executive Order to include regulations that have 
``substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on the 
relationship between the Federal Government and the Indian tribes, or 
on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal 
Government and Indian tribes.'' This proposed rule will not have 
substantial direct effects on tribal governments, on the relationship 
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the 
distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal 
Government and Indian tribes, as

[[Page 25691]]

specified in Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does 
not apply to this proposed rule.
