ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: This Notice amends and updates the list of devices that conform to the Model Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids. DATES: Effective Date: December 15, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. De Carlo Ciccel, Behavioral Research Division, NTI–131, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590; Telephone: (202) 366–1694. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 2, 1994, NHTSA published Model Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids (59 FR 39382). These specifications established performance criteria and methods for testing alcohol screening devices to measure alcohol content. The specifications support State laws that target youthful offenders (e.g., ‘‘zero tolerance’’ laws) and the Department of Transportation’s workplace alcohol testing program. NHTSA published its first Conforming Products List (CPL) for screening devices on December 2, 1994 (59 FR 61923, with corrections on December 16, 1994 in 59 FR 65128), identifying the devices that meet NHTSA’s Model Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids. Five devices appeared on that first list. Thereafter, NHTSA amended the CPL on August 15, 1995 (60 FR 42214) and on May 4, 2001 (66 FR 22639), adding 7 devices to the CPL in those two actions. On September 19, 2005, NHTSA published an updated CPL (70 FR 54972), adding several devices to the list and removing several other devices. Subsequently NHTSA discovered an error regarding the name of a device listed on the CPL and republished the CPL on December 5, 2005 (70 FR 72502) to correct the error. NHTSA last published an update to the CPL on January 31, 2007 (72 FR 4559), adding 3 new devices. On March 31, 2008, NHTSA published revised Model Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids (73 FR 16956). PO 00000 Frm 00127 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 These specifications removed testing of interpretive screening devices (ISDs) because ISDs did not provide an unambiguous test result. These specifications also removed from use the Breath Alcohol Sample Simulator as it is not necessary for testing breath alcohol screening devices. All other performance criteria and test methods were maintained. Since the publication of the last CPL, NHTSA has evaluated additional devices at the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (VNTSC) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, resulting in the addition of 14 new breath alcohol screening devices to the CPL. One device is being removed from the CPL as it is no longer supported or sold by the manufacturer and several devices are being renamed. (1) AK Solutions USA, LLC, submitted 3 screening devices for testing, several trade name revisions, and the removal of 1 device from the CPL. The trade names of the new conforming devices are: AlcoMate AccuCell AL–9000, a handheld device with a fuel cell sensor; AlcoMate Premium AL–7000, a handheld device that utilizes replaceable semiconductor detectors, and AlcoMate Prestige (AL– 6000), also a handheld device that utilizes replaceable semiconductor detectors. The replaceable detectors also conform to the model specifications and are specific to each device. Alcoscan AL–5000 is being removed from the list. This device is no longer being sold or supported by the manufacturer. The following three devices are being renamed: SafeMate (formerly known as AlcoChecker), SafeDrive (formerly known as AlcoKey), and AlcoMate Core (formerly known as Alcoscan AL–6000). (2) BAC Solutions, Inc., submitted a screening device for testing. The trade name for this device is BACmaster. This is a bench top stationary screening device with an infrared detector. (3) B.E.S.T. Labs, Inc., submitted a device for testing. The PB 9000e is a handheld device with a fuel cell sensor. (4) CMI, Inc., submitted a device for testing.

The electronic analyzer and the disposable breath tubes are lot specific and manufactured to remain calibrated throughout the shelf-life of the device. This screening device cannot be used after the expiration date. 9 While the ALCO–SCREEN 02TM saliva-alcohol screening device manufactured by Chematics, Inc. passed the requirements of the Model Specifications when tested at 40 °C (104 °F), the manufacturer has indicated that the device cannot exceed storage temperatures of 27 °C (80 °F). Instructions to this effect are stated on all packaging accompanying the device. Accordingly, the device should not be stored at temperatures above 27 °C (80 °F). If the device is stored at or below 27 °C (80 °F) and used at higher temperatures (i.e., within a minute), the device meets the Model Specifications and the results persist for 10–15 minutes. If the device is stored at or below 27 °C (80 °F) and equilibrated at 40 °C (104 °F) for an hour prior to sample application, the device fails to meet the Model Specifications. Storage at temperatures above 27 °C (80 °F), for even brief periods of time, may result in false negative readings. 10 Manufactured by DA Tech Co., Ltd., Korea. sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with NOTICES 2 Manufactured VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:23 Dec 14, 2009 Jkt 220001 PO 00000 Frm 00128 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\15DEN1.SGM 15DEN1 66400 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 239 / Tuesday, December 15, 2009 / Notices 11 While this device passed all of the requirements of the Model Specifications, readings should be taken only after the time specified by the manufacturer. For valid readings, the user should follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Readings should be taken one (1) minute after a sample is introduced at or above 30 °C (86 °F); readings should be taken after two (2) minutes at 18 °C–29 °C (64.4 °¥84.2 °F); and readings should be taken after five (5) minutes when testing at temperatures at or below 17 °C (62.6 °F). If the reading is taken before five (5) minutes has elapsed under the cold conditions, the user is likely to obtain a reading that underestimates the actual saliva-alcohol level.

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its determination that the noise exposure maps submitted by San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, for San Diego International Airport under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47501 et. seq (Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act) and 14 CFR part 150 are in compliance with applicable requirements. DATES: Effective Date: The effective date of the FAA’s determination on the noise exposure maps is November 10, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Victor Globa, Environmental Protection Specialist, Federal Aviation Administration, Los Angeles Airports District Office, Mailing Address: P.O. Box 92007, Los Angeles, California 90009–2007. Street Address: 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne, California 90261. Telephone: 310/725– 3637. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds that the noise exposure maps submitted for San Diego International Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 150 (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘Part 150’’), effective November 10, 2009. Under 49 U.S.C. section 47503 of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’), an airport operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure maps which meet applicable regulations and which depict noncompatible land uses as of the date of submission of such maps, a description VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:23 Dec 14, 2009 Jkt 220001 of projected aircraft operations, and the ways in which such operations will affect such maps. The Act requires such maps to be developed in consultation with interested and affected parties in the local community, government agencies, and persons using the airport. An airport operator who has submitted noise exposure maps that are found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Part 150, promulgated pursuant to the Act, may submit a noise compatibility program for FAA approval which sets forth the measures the operator has taken or proposes to take to reduce existing non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional non-compatible uses. The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure maps and accompanying documentation submitted by San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. The documentation that constitutes the ‘‘Noise Exposure Maps’’ as defined in section 150.7 of Part 150 includes: Figure 2, Existing Condition (2009) Noise Exposure Map; Figure 3, Forecast Condition (2014) Noise Exposure Map; Figure 4, Comparison of Existing (2009) and Forecast (2014) Noise Exposure Maps; Figure 5, Existing SAN Airport Layout; Figure 6, Runway 9 Departure Arrival Tracks, Figure 7, Runway 27 Departure and Arrival Tracks; Figure 8, Helicopter Departure and Arrival Tracks; Table 3, Annual CNEL Measured at the RMT’s; Table 4, Comparison of Annual CNEL-Measured and Modeled; Table 5, 2007 Aircraft Operations; Table 6, Existing (2009) Modeled Average Daily Aircraft Operations; Table 7, Forecast (2014) Modeled Average Daily Aircraft Operations; Table 8, Runway Utilization; Table 9, Number of NonResidential Sensitive Receptors within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 10, Listing of Non-Residential Sensitive Receptors within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 11, Estimated Residential Population within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 12, Number of Single Family Homes Eligible for Sound Mitigation; Table 13, Number of Multi-Family Residential Units Eligible for Mitigation; Table 14, Noise Technical Advisory Group Members; Table 15, Noise Technical Advisory Group Meetings; Table 16, Community Information Workshops Content. The FAA has determined that these Noise Exposure Maps and accompanying PO 00000 Frm 00129 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 documentation are in compliance with applicable requirements. This determination is effective on November 10, 2009. FAA’s determination on an airport operator’s noise exposure maps is limited to a finding that the maps were developed in accordance with the procedures contained in Appendix A of Part 150. Such determination does not constitute approval of the applicant’s data, information or plans, or a commitment to approve a noise compatibility program or to fund the implementation of that program. If questions arise concerning the precise relationship of specific properties to noise exposure contours depicted on a noise exposure map submitted under section 47503 of the Act, it should be noted that the FAA is not involved in any way in determining the relative locations of specific properties with regard to the depicted noise contours, or in interpreting the noise exposure maps to resolve questions concerning, for example, which properties should be covered by the provisions of section 47506 of the Act. These functions are inseparable from the ultimate land use control and planning responsibilities of local government. These local responsibilities are not changed in any way under Part 150 or through FAA’s review of noise exposure maps. Therefore, the responsibility for the detailed overlaying of noise exposure contours onto the map depicting properties on the surface rests exclusively with the airport operator that submitted those maps, or with those public agencies and planning agencies with which consultation is required under section 47503 of the Act. The FAA has relied on the certification by the airport operator, under section 150.21 of Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation has been accomplished. Copies of the full noise exposure map documentation and of the FAA’s evaluation of the maps are available for examination at the following locations: Federal Aviation Administration, Western-Pacific Region Office, Airports Division, Room 3012, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne, California 90261. Federal Aviation Administration, Los Angeles Airports District Office, Room 3000, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne, California 90261. E:\FR\FM\15DEN1.SGM 15DEN1

Highway Safety Programs; Conforming Products List of Screening 
Devices To Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This Notice amends and updates the list of devices that 
conform to the Model Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure 
Alcohol in Bodily Fluids.

DATES: Effective Date: December 15, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. De Carlo Ciccel, Behavioral 
Research Division, NTI-131, National Highway Traffic Safety 
Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590; 
Telephone: (202) 366-1694.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 2, 1994, NHTSA published Model 
Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily 
Fluids (59 FR 39382). These specifications established performance 
criteria and methods for testing alcohol screening devices to measure 
alcohol content. The specifications support State laws that target 
youthful offenders (e.g., ``zero tolerance'' laws) and the Department 
of Transportation's workplace alcohol testing program. NHTSA published 
its first Conforming Products List (CPL) for screening devices on 
December 2, 1994 (59 FR 61923, with corrections on December 16, 1994 in 
59 FR 65128), identifying the devices that meet NHTSA's Model 
Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily 
Fluids. Five devices appeared on that first list. Thereafter, NHTSA 
amended the CPL on August 15, 1995 (60 FR 42214) and on May 4, 2001 (66 
FR 22639), adding 7 devices to the CPL in those two actions. On 
September 19, 2005, NHTSA published an updated CPL (70 FR 54972), 
adding several devices to the list and removing several other devices. 
Subsequently NHTSA discovered an error regarding the name of a device 
listed on the CPL and republished the CPL on December 5, 2005 (70 FR 
72502) to correct the error. NHTSA last published an update to the CPL 
on January 31, 2007 (72 FR 4559), adding 3 new devices.
    On March 31, 2008, NHTSA published revised Model Specifications for 
Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily Fluids (73 FR 16956). 
These specifications removed testing of interpretive screening devices 
(ISDs) because ISDs did not provide an unambiguous test result. These 
specifications also removed from use the Breath Alcohol Sample 
Simulator as it is not necessary for testing breath alcohol screening 
devices. All other performance criteria and test methods were 
maintained.
    Since the publication of the last CPL, NHTSA has evaluated 
additional devices at the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center 
(VNTSC) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, resulting in the addition of 14 
new breath alcohol screening devices to the CPL. One device is being 
removed from the CPL as it is no longer supported or sold by the 
manufacturer and several devices are being renamed.
    (1) AK Solutions USA, LLC, submitted 3 screening devices for 
testing, several trade name revisions, and the removal of 1 device from 
the CPL. The trade names of the new conforming devices are: AlcoMate 
AccuCell AL-9000, a handheld device with a fuel cell sensor; AlcoMate 
Premium AL-7000, a handheld device that utilizes replaceable 
semiconductor detectors, and AlcoMate Prestige (AL-6000), also a 
handheld device that utilizes replaceable semiconductor detectors. The 
replaceable detectors also conform to the model specifications and are 
specific to each device. Alcoscan AL-5000 is being removed from the 
list. This device is no longer being sold or supported by the 
manufacturer. The following three devices are being renamed: SafeMate 
(formerly known as AlcoChecker), SafeDrive (formerly known as AlcoKey), 
and AlcoMate Core (formerly known as Alcoscan AL-6000). (2) BAC 
Solutions, Inc., submitted a screening device for testing. The trade 
name for this device is BACmaster. This is a bench top stationary 
screening device with an infrared detector. (3) B.E.S.T. Labs, Inc., 
submitted a device for testing. The PB 9000e is a handheld device with 
a fuel cell sensor. (4) CMI, Inc., submitted a device for testing. This 
device, the Intoxilyzer 500, with a handheld fuel cell sensor conforms 
to the model specification for alcohol screening devices. This is the 
same device listed below as the Alcometer 500, distributed by Lion 
Laboratories, Ltd. (5) First Innovative Technology Group, Ltd., 
submitted a device, the AAT198 Pro. This is a handheld device with a

------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The AlcoMate was manufactured by Han International of Seoul, Korea,
  but marketed and sold in the U.S. by AK Solutions.
\2\ Manufactured by Seju Engineering, Korea.
\3\ Han International does not market or sell devices directly in the
  U.S. market. Other devices manufactured by Han International are
  listed under AK Solutions, Inc. and Q-3 Innovations, Inc.
\4\ Manufactured by Sentech Korea Corp.
\5\ These devices utilize replaceable semiconductor detectors. Instead
  of re-calibrating the device, a new calibrated detector can be
  installed. This device comes with 4 detectors including the one that
  was already installed.
\6\ These devices utilize replaceable semiconductor detectors. Instead
  of re-calibrating the device, a new calibrated detector can be
  installed. This device comes with 5 detectors including the one that
  was already installed.
\7\ While these devices are still being sold, they are no longer
  manufactured or supported.
\8\ The Breath Alcohol [check] .02 Detection System consists of a single-
  use disposable breath tube used in conjunction with an electronic
  analyzer that determines the test result. The electronic analyzer and
  the disposable breath tubes are lot specific and manufactured to
  remain calibrated throughout the shelf-life of the device. This
  screening device cannot be used after the expiration date.
\9\ While the ALCO-SCREEN 02TM saliva-alcohol screening device
  manufactured by Chematics, Inc. passed the requirements of the Model
  Specifications when tested at 40 [deg]C (104 [deg]F), the manufacturer
  has indicated that the device cannot exceed storage temperatures of 27
  [deg]C (80 [deg]F). Instructions to this effect are stated on all
  packaging accompanying the device. Accordingly, the device should not
  be stored at temperatures above 27 [deg]C (80 [deg]F). If the device
  is stored at or below 27 [deg]C (80 [deg]F) and used at higher
  temperatures (i.e., within a minute), the device meets the Model
  Specifications and the results persist for 10-15 minutes. If the
  device is stored at or below 27 [deg]C (80 [deg]F) and equilibrated at
  40 [deg]C (104 [deg]F) for an hour prior to sample application, the
  device fails to meet the Model Specifications. Storage at temperatures
  above 27 [deg]C (80 [deg]F), for even brief periods of time, may
  result in false negative readings.
\10\ Manufactured by DA Tech Co., Ltd., Korea.

\11\ While this device passed all of the requirements of the Model
  Specifications, readings should be taken only after the time specified
  by the manufacturer. For valid readings, the user should follow the
  manufacturer's instructions. Readings should be taken one (1) minute
  after a sample is introduced at or above 30 [deg]C (86 [deg]F);
  readings should be taken after two (2) minutes at 18 [deg]C-29 [deg]C
  (64.4 [deg]-84.2 [deg]F); and readings should be taken after five (5)
  minutes when testing at temperatures at or below 17 [deg]C (62.6
  [deg]F). If the reading is taken before five (5) minutes has elapsed
  under the cold conditions, the user is likely to obtain a reading that
  underestimates the actual saliva-alcohol level.
