Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans: Florida; Prevention of Significant Deterioration
EPA is proposing to convert a conditional approval of provisions in the Florida State Implementation Plan (SIP) to a full approval under the federal Clean Air Act (CAA). On June 17, 2009, the State of Florida, through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, submitted a SIP revision in response to the conditional approval of its New Source Review (NSR) permitting program. The revision includes changes to certain parts of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration construction permit program in Florida, including the definition of ``new emissions unit,'' ``regulated air pollutant'' and ``significant emissions rate'' as well as recordkeeping requirements. In addition, Florida provided a clarification that the significant emissions rate for mercury in the Florida regulations is intended to apply as a state-only provision. EPA has determined that this revision addresses the conditions identified in the conditional approval, and is therefore approvable. In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. This proposed action is being taken pursuant to section 110 of the CAA.
New Formulas for Calculating the Basetime, Overtime, Holiday, and Laboratory Services Rates; Rate Changes Based on the Formulas; and Increased Fees for the Accredited Laboratory Program.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is amending its regulations to establish formulas for calculating the rates that it charges meat and poultry establishments, egg products plants, and importers and exporters for providing voluntary, overtime, and holiday inspection, and identification, certification, and laboratory services. The 2011 basetime, overtime, holiday, and laboratory services rates in this final rule will be applied on the effective date. For future years, FSIS will use the formulas established to calculate the annual rates. FSIS will publish the rates annually in Federal Register notices prior to the start of each calendar year and will apply them on the first FSIS pay period at the beginning of the calendar year. The Agency is also increasing the codified flat annual fee for its Accredited Laboratory Program for FY 2012 and FY 2013.

Notice of Intent To Award Affordable Care Act (ACA) Funding
This notice provides public announcement of CDC's intent to award Affordable Care Act (ACA) appropriations to the Connecticut Department of Public Health and the Georgia Department of Community Health to conduct vaccine effectiveness activities for rotavirus vaccine and 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV). These activities were requested by the two grantees in their FY 2011 non- competitive continuation applications submitted under funding opportunity CI05-026, ``Emerging Infections Program (EIP),'' Catalogue of Federal Domestic Assistance Number (CFDA): 93.283. Due to a lack of funding availability, these activities were either approved but unfunded or only partially funded in the grantee's FY 2011 continuation award. Only these two EIP sites requested funding for the rotavirus activities and only one site (Georgia) requested funding for the PCV activities. Since no other EIP sites requested funding for these specific activities, Connecticut and Georgia will be the only sites receiving funding for these activities. Approximately $433,500 in ACA funding will be awarded, which includes $333,500 for Rotavirus and $100,000 for PCV, to increase the amount of funding available to evaluate the effectiveness of new rotavirus and PCV vaccines currently being monitored through the aforementioned participating EIP sites. Funding is appropriated under the Affordable Care Act (PL 111-148), Title IV, Section 4002 (Prevention and Public Health Fund).
