Type of submission, new, revision, or extension: Extension. 2. The title of the information collection: 10 CFR Part 62 ``Criteria and Procedures for Emergency Access to Non-Federal and Regional Low-Level Waste Disposal Facilities.'' 3. The form number if applicable: Not applicable. 4. How often the collection is required: The collection would only be required upon application for an exemption or when access to a non- Federal low-level waste disposal facility is denied, which results in a public health and safety and/or common defense and security concern. 5. Who will be required or asked to report: Generators of low-level waste who are denied access to a non-Federal low-level waste facility. 6. An estimate of the number of responses: 1. 7.

An indication of whether Section 3507(d), Public Law 104-13 applies: Not applicable. 10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 62 sets out the information which must be provided to the NRC by any low-level waste generator seeking emergency access to an operating low-level waste disposal facility. The information is required to allow NRC to determine if denial of disposal constitutes a serious and immediate threat to public health and safety or common defense and security. 10 CFR part 62 also provides that the Commission may grant an exemption from the requirements in this part upon application of an interested person or upon its own initiative.

Notice of Availability of Draft Standard Review Plan for Activities Related to U.S. Department of Energy Waste Determinations, NUREG-1854
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing a draft Standard Review Plan (SRP) for activities related to U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) waste determinations, for public comment. The draft SRP provides guidance to the NRC staff in evaluating non- high-level waste determinations developed by DOE for the Savannah River Site, Idaho National Laboratory, the Hanford site, and the West Valley Demonstration Project for certain wastes that are a result of the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. The draft SRP provides elements the NRC staff should review to determine whether there is reasonable assurance that the appropriate criteria can be met for determining that waste is incidental to reprocessing and can be managed as low-level waste. The draft SRP also provides information about the role of the NRC in the waste determination process and the NRC monitoring activities under the Ronald W. Reagan National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (NDAA). The draft SRP does not set forth regulatory requirements for NRC or for DOE, and compliance with the draft SRP is not required.

Terbacil; Pesticide Tolerance
This regulation establishes a tolerance for combined residues of terbacil in or on watermelon. The Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4), on behalf of the registrant, DuPont Crop Protection, requested this tolerance under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA). EPA is also deleting an existing time-limited terbacil tolerance that is no longer needed as a result of this action.
Pesticides; Minimal Risk Tolerance Exemptions
This rule reorganizes the existing tolerance exemptions for 12 chemical substances that are now classified as ``minimal risk.'' The Agency is shifting the existing tolerance exemptions for these chemicals to 40 CFR 180.950(e). The Agency is merely moving certain tolerance exemptions from one section of the CFR to another section. No tolerance exemptions are lost or added as a result of this action.
TSCA Section 21 Petition; Notice of Receipt
This notice announces receipt of a petition submitted by the Sierra Club and requests comments on issues raised by the petition. The petitioner is concerned about the risks of toy jewelry containing lead and requests that EPA take four actions under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The petitioner requests that EPA: (1) Require TSCA section 8(d) health and safety data reporting; (2) submit a report to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) under TSCA section 9; (3) issue a significant new use rule pursuant to TSCA section 5; and (4) issue quality control orders under TSCA section 6(b). Of the actions requested by the petitioner, TSCA section 21 applies only to requests for actions under TSCA sections 6(b) and 8(d). The Agency must either grant or deny a section 21 petition within 90 days. The Agency will therefore respond to the requests for action under TSCA sections 6(b) and 8(d) by July 20, 2006. EPA will carefully consider the requests for action under TSCA sections 5 and 9, which are not subject to section 21 and will respond to them at a later time.
