Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Indiana, 41954 [2012-17263]

Download as PDF mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS 41954 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 137 / Tuesday, July 17, 2012 / Proposed Rules BPA-based epoxy resins as coatings in packaging for infant formula has been permanently and completely abandoned. Accordingly, FDA requests comments that address whether these uses of BPA-based epoxy resins have been completely abandoned, such as information on whether infant formula packaging containing BPA-based epoxy resins as coatings is currently being introduced or delivered for introduction into the U.S. market. Further, FDA requests comments on whether the uses that are the subject of the petition (BPAbased epoxy resins as coatings in infant formula packaging) have been adequately defined. FDA is not aware of information that suggests continued use of BPA-based epoxy resins as coatings in packaging for powder or liquid infant formula. FDA is providing the public 60 days to submit comments. FDA anticipates that some interested persons may wish to provide FDA with certain information that they consider to be trade secret or confidential commercial information (CCI) that would be exempt under Exemption 4 of the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552). Interested persons may claim information that is submitted to FDA as CCI or trade secret by clearly marking both the document and the specific information as ‘‘confidential.’’ Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and FDA’s disclosure regulations (21 CFR part 20). For electronic submissions to https:// www.regulations.gov, indicate in the ‘‘comments’’ box of the appropriate docket that your submission contains confidential information. Interested persons must also submit a copy of the comment that does not contain the information claimed as confidential for inclusion in the public version of the official record. Information not marked confidential will be included in the public version of the official record without prior notice. FDA is not requesting comments on the safety of these uses of BPA-based epoxy resins as coatings because, as discussed previously, such information is not relevant to establishing abandonment as the basis of the proposed action. Any comments addressing the safety of BPA-based epoxy resins or containing safety information on these resins will not be considered in FDA’s evaluation of this petition. Separate from FDA’s consideration of this petition, FDA is actively assessing the safety of BPA (see 75 FR 17145, April 5, 2010; see also VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:09 Jul 16, 2012 Jkt 226001 https://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/ PublicHealthFocus/ucm064437.htm). FDA has determined under 21 CFR 25.32(m) that this action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required. III. Comments Interested persons may submit either written comments regarding this document to the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES) or electronic comments to https:// www.regulations.gov. It is only necessary to send one set of comments. Identify comments with the docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document. Received comments may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, and will be posted to the docket at https:// www.regulations.gov.
