SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background
The Hanford Site, located in
southeastern Washington State along the
Columbia River, is approximately 586
square miles in size. Hanford’s mission
from the early 1940s to approximately
1989 included defense-related nuclear
research, development, and weapons
production activities. These activities
created a wide variety of chemical and
radioactive wastes. Hanford’s mission
now is focused on the cleanup of those
wastes and ultimate closure of the Site.
An important part of the mission
includes the retrieval and treatment of
waste from 177 underground radioactive
waste storage tanks, including 149
single shell tanks (SSTs), and closure of
the SSTs. Hanford’s mission also
includes radioactive waste management
on the Site and decommissioning of the
Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF), a nuclear
test reactor that has been designated for
closure.
To support its decision making for
these actions, DOE prepared the TC &
WM EIS pursuant to NEPA and in
accordance with Council on
Environmental Quality and DOE NEPA
implementing regulations (40 CFR Parts
1500–1508; 10 CFR Part 1021). EPA and
the Washington State Department of
Ecology are cooperating agencies on this
EIS. DOE held a public comment period
on the draft EIS that extended from
October 30, 2009, through May 3, 2010,
with public hearings in Washington,
Oregon, and Idaho. DOE considered all
public comments received in preparing
the Final TC & WM EIS, which includes
DOE’s responses to those comments.
Scope of the TC & WM EIS
The Final TC & WM EIS addresses
proposed actions in three major areas:
Retrieving and treating radioactive
waste from 177 underground storage
tanks at Hanford, including 149 SSTs
and closure of the SSTs;
decommissioning the FFTF and its
auxiliary facilities; and continued and
expanded solid waste management
operations, including disposal of lowlevel radioactive waste and mixed lowlevel radioactive waste. The final EIS
also includes a No Action Alternative to
the proposed actions for each of the
three major areas, as required by NEPA.
DOE’s preferred alternatives are
described in the Summary, Section S.7,
and in Chapter 2, Section 2.12, of
Volume 1 of the Final TC & WM EIS.
Copies of the Final TC & WM EIS are

information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark
the part or all of the information that
you claim to be CBI. For CBI
information in a disk or CD–ROM that
you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the
disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then
identify electronically within the disk or
CD–ROM the specific information that
is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that
includes information claimed as CBI, a
copy of the comment that does not
contain the information claimed as CBI
must be submitted for inclusion in the
public docket. Information so marked
will not be disclosed except in
accordance with procedures set forth in
40 CFR part 2.

E:\FR\FM\14DEN1.SGM
14DEN1
74475
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 241 / Friday, December 14, 2012 / Notices
vi. Provide specific examples to
illustrate your concerns and suggest
alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as
possible, avoiding the use of profanity
or personal threats.
viii. Make sure to submit your
comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
II. Why is EPA taking this action?
EPA classifies a chemical substance as
either an ‘‘existing’’ chemical or a
‘‘new’’ chemical. Any chemical
substance that is not on EPA’s TSCA
Inventory is classified as a ‘‘new
chemical,’’ while those that are on the
TSCA Inventory are classified as an
‘‘existing chemical.’’ For more
information about the TSCA Inventory
go to: https://www.epa.gov/opptintr/
newchems/pubs/inventory.htm. Anyone
who plans to manufacture or import a
new chemical substance for a non-
exempt commercial purpose is required
by TSCA section 5 to provide EPA with
a PMN, before initiating the activity.
Section 5(h)(1) of TSCA authorizes EPA
to allow persons, upon application, to
manufacture (includes import) or
process a new chemical substance, or a
chemical substance subject to a
significant new use rule (SNUR) issued
under TSCA section 5(a), for ‘‘test
marketing’’ purposes, which is referred
to as a test marketing exemption, or
TME. For more information about the
requirements applicable to a new
chemical go to: https://www.epa.gov/
oppt/newchems.
Under TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and
5(d)(3), EPA is required to publish in
the Federal Register a notice of receipt
of a PMN or an application for a TME
and to publish in the Federal Register
periodic status reports on the new
chemicals under review and the receipt
of NOCs to manufacture those
chemicals. This status report, which
covers the period from October 15, 2012
to October 31, 2012, consists of the
PMNs and TMEs, both pending or
expired, and the NOCs to manufacture
a new chemical that the Agency has
received under TSCA section 5 during
this time period.
III. Receipt and Status Reports
In Table I. of this unit, EPA provides
the following information (to the extent
that such information is not claimed as
CBI) on the PMNs received by EPA
during this period: The EPA case
number assigned to the PMN, the date
the PMN was received by EPA, the
projected end date for EPA’s review of
the PMN, the submitting manufacturer/
importer, the potential uses identified
by the manufacturer/importer in the
PMN, and the chemical identity.

Registration Review; Pesticide
Dockets Opened for Review and
Comment
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: With this document, EPA is
opening the public comment period for
several registration reviews. Registration
review is EPA’s periodic review of
pesticide registrations to ensure that
each pesticide continues to satisfy the
statutory standard for registration, that
is, the pesticide can perform its
intended function without unreasonable
adverse effects on human health or the
environment. Registration review
dockets contain information that will
assist the public in understanding the
types of information and issues that the
Agency may consider during the course
of registration reviews. Through this
program, EPA is ensuring that each
pesticide’s registration is based on
current scientific and other knowledge,
including its effects on human health
and the environment. EPA is also
announcing the availability of amended
final work plans (FWPs) for the
following active ingredients: Sodium
pyrithione (formerly known as sodium
omadine), methylene bis(thiocyanate),
troysan KK–108A (IPBC), zinc salts, and
tri-n butyl tetradecyl phosphonium
chloride (TTPC).
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before February 12, 2013.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments
identified by the docket identification
(ID) number for the specific pesticide of
interest provided in the table in Unit
III.A., by one of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
Do not submit electronically any
information you consider to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute.

Certain New Chemicals; Receipt and Status Information
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires any person
who intends to manufacture (defined by statute to include import) a new
[[Page 74474]]
chemical (i.e., a chemical not on the TSCA Chemical Substances
Inventory (TSCA Inventory)) to notify EPA and comply with the statutory
provisions pertaining to the manufacture of new chemicals. In addition
under TSCA, EPA is required to publish in the Federal Register a notice
of receipt of a premanufacture notice (PMN) or an application for a
test marketing exemption (TME), and to publish in the Federal Register
periodic status reports on the new chemicals under review and the
receipt of notices of commencement (NOC) to manufacture those
chemicals. This document, which covers the period from October 15, 2012
to October 31, 2012, and provides the required notice and status
report, consists of the PMNs and TMEs, both pending or expired, and the
NOC to manufacture a new chemical that the Agency has received under
TSCA section 5 during this time period.
DATES: Comments identified by the specific PMN number or TME number,
must be received on or before January 14, 2013.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2012-0880, and the specific PMN number or TME
number for the chemical related to your comment, by one of the
following methods:
Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.
Follow the online instructions for submitting comments.
Mail: Document Control Office (7407M), Office of Pollution
Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), Environmental Protection Agency, 1200
Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-0001.
Hand Delivery: OPPT Document Control Office (DCO), EPA
East Bldg., Rm. 6428, 1201 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC. The
DCO is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding
legal holidays. The telephone number for the DCO is (202) 564-8930.
Such deliveries are only accepted during the DCO's normal hours of
operation, and special arrangements should be made for deliveries of
boxed information.
Instructions: EPA's policy is that all comments received will be
included in the docket without change and may be made available online
at https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through regulations.gov or
email. The regulations.gov Web site is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity or contact information
unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an email
comment directly to EPA without going through regulations.gov, your
email address will be automatically captured and included as part of
the comment that is placed in the docket and made available on the
Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public in general. As such, the
Agency has not attempted to describe the specific entities that this
action may apply to. Although others may be affected, this action
applies directly to the submitter of the PMNs addressed in this action.
If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this action to
a particular entity, consult the person listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.
B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
[[Page 74475]]
vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
II. Why is EPA taking this action?
EPA classifies a chemical substance as either an ``existing''
chemical or a ``new'' chemical. Any chemical substance that is not on
EPA's TSCA Inventory is classified as a ``new chemical,'' while those
that are on the TSCA Inventory are classified as an ``existing
chemical.'' For more information about the TSCA Inventory go to: https://www.epa.gov/opptintr/newchems/pubs/inventory.htm. Anyone who plans to
manufacture or import a new chemical substance for a non-exempt
commercial purpose is required by TSCA section 5 to provide EPA with a
PMN, before initiating the activity. Section 5(h)(1) of TSCA authorizes
EPA to allow persons, upon application, to manufacture (includes
import) or process a new chemical substance, or a chemical substance
subject to a significant new use rule (SNUR) issued under TSCA section
5(a), for ``test marketing'' purposes, which is referred to as a test
marketing exemption, or TME. For more information about the
requirements applicable to a new chemical go to: https://www.epa.gov/oppt/newchems.
Under TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3), EPA is required to publish
in the Federal Register a notice of receipt of a PMN or an application
for a TME and to publish in the Federal Register periodic status
reports on the new chemicals under review and the receipt of NOCs to
manufacture those chemicals. This status report, which covers the
period from October 15, 2012 to October 31, 2012, consists of the PMNs
and TMEs, both pending or expired, and the NOCs to manufacture a new
chemical that the Agency has received under TSCA section 5 during this
time period.
III. Receipt and Status Reports
In Table I. of this unit, EPA provides the following information
(to the extent that such information is not claimed as CBI) on the PMNs
received by EPA during this period: The EPA case number assigned to the
PMN, the date the PMN was received by EPA, the projected end date for
EPA's review of the PMN, the submitting manufacturer/importer, the
potential uses identified by the manufacturer/importer in the PMN, and
the chemical identity.
