ACTION:
Coast Guard, DHS.
Proposed rule; correction.
SUMMARY: This document corrects the
preamble to a proposed rule published
in the Federal Register of April 3, 2006,
regarding a temporary special local
regulation for ‘‘2006 Rappahannock
River Boaters Association Spring and
Fall Radar Shootout’’, power boat races
to be held on the waters of the
Rappahannock River near Layton, VA.
This correction changes the date by
which comments and related material
must reach the Coast Guard, from June
2, 2006 to May 3, 2006. The change is
necessary because the June 2 date does
not allow adequate time to issue a final
rule before June 3, 2006, the date of the
first event affected by the proposed rule.

Coordinator, Fifth Coast Guard District,

SUMMARY: This document extends the
public comment period established for
the Proposed Significant New Use Rule
for Perfluoroalkyl Sulfonates in the
Federal Register issued on March 10,
2006 (71 FR 12311) (FRL–7740–6). In
that proposed rule, EPA proposed to
amend a significant new use rule
(SNUR) under section 5(a)(2) of the
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to
include certain perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates (PFAS) substances. EPA
proposed to amend the PFAS SNUR at
40 CFR 721.9582 by adding a new Table
3 containing the remaining PFAS
chemicals on the TSCA Inventory that
are not already regulated by the SNUR.
EPA believes that action is necessary
because these chemical substances may
be hazardous to human health and the
environment. The required notice will
provide EPA the opportunity to evaluate
intended significant new uses and
associated activities before they occur
and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit
those uses or activities.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before May 10, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Follow the detailed
instructions as provided under
ADDRESSES in the Federal Register
document of March 10, 2006 (71 FR
12311).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
The Agency included in the proposed
rule a list of those who may be
potentially affected by this action. If you
have questions regarding the
applicability of this action to a
particular entity, consult the person
listed under the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.
II. What Action is EPA taking?
This document extends the public
comment period established in the
Federal Register issued on March 10,
2006 (71 FR 12311). In that document,
EPA proposed to amend a significant
new use rule (SNUR) under section
5(a)(2) of the Toxic Substances Control
Act (TSCA) to include certain
perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFAS)
substances. EPA proposed to amend the
PFAS SNUR at 40 CFR 721.9582 by
adding a new Table 3 containing the
remaining PFAS chemicals on the TSCA
Inventory that are not already regulated
by the SNUR. EPA is hereby extending
the comment period, which was set to
end on April 10, 2006, to May 10, 2006.
III. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
Section 5(a)(2) of TSCA (15 U.S.C.
2604(a)(2)) authorizes EPA to determine
that a use of a chemical substance is a
‘‘significant new use.’’ EPA must make
this determination by promulgating a
rule after considering all relevant
factors, including those listed in TSCA
section 5(a)(2). These factors include the
projected production volume of a
chemical substance; the extent to which
a use changes or increases the type,
form, magnitude, or duration of
exposure to the substance; and the
reasonably anticipated manner of
producing, processing, distributing, or
disposing of the substance. EPA
construes the statute to allow
consideration of any other relevant
factors, in addition to those listed in
section 5(a)(2). Once EPA determines
that a use of a chemical substance is a
significant new use, and promulgates a
SNUR, section 5(a)(1)(B) of TSCA
requires persons to submit a Significant
New Use Notice (SNUN) to EPA at least
90 days before they manufacture,
import, or process the chemical
substance for that use.
IV. Do Any Statutory and Executive
Order Reviews Apply to this Action?
No. This action is not a rulemaking,
it merely extends the date by which
public comments on a proposed rule
must be submitted to EPA on a
proposed rule that previously published
