regulation, require restrictions on the
sale and distribution of a tobacco
product (section 906(d)(1) of the FD&C
Act (21 U.S.C. 387f(d)(1))). The
restrictions on sale and distribution of a
tobacco product may include
restrictions on the access to, and the
advertising and promotion of, the
tobacco product, if the Secretary of HHS
determines such regulation would be
appropriate for the public health.
FDA intends to use the information
submitted in response to this Federal
Register document, FDA’s preliminary
independent scientific evaluation, and
other appropriate information to inform
its thinking about options for regulating
menthol in cigarettes.
appropriate for the protection of the
public health?
5. If a product standard limiting
menthol were to be established, are
there alternatives that could be
substituted by manufacturers to
maintain the effect or appeal of menthol
to menthol cigarette smokers and
potential initiators? If so, what are these
substitutes? Should they be regulated if
menthol is regulated; and if so, how
should they be regulated? If not, what
distinctions should be made between
menthol and potential substitutes?

II. Request for Comments and
Information
FDA is seeking comments, including
comments on its preliminary evaluation,
and data, research (e.g., published or
unpublished studies, case studies), and
any other information related to the
following questions. Please explain your
responses and provide any evidence or
other information supporting your
responses to the following questions:
B. Sale and Distribution Restrictions
1. Should FDA consider establishing
restrictions on the sale and/or
distribution of menthol cigarettes? If so,
what restrictions would be appropriate
and what would be the impact on youth
or adult smoking behavior, initiation,
and cessation?
2. Should FDA consider establishing
restrictions on the advertising and
promotion of menthol cigarettes? If so,
what restrictions would be appropriate
and what would be the impact on youth
or adult smoking behavior, initiation,
and cessation?
A. Tobacco Product Standards
1. Should FDA consider establishing
a tobacco product standard for menthol
in menthol cigarettes? If so, what
allowable level of menthol (e.g.,
maximum or minimum) would be
appropriate for the protection of the
public health?
2. Rather than a tobacco product
standard for menthol in menthol
cigarettes, should FDA consider a
tobacco product standard for any
additive, constituent, artificial or
natural flavor, or other ingredient that
produces a characterizing flavor of
menthol in the tobacco product or its
smoke?
3. If a tobacco product standard for
menthol in menthol cigarettes were to
be established, should FDA consider
issuing regulations to address menthol
in other tobacco products besides
cigarettes? If so, what other tobacco
products with menthol should be
regulated: All tobacco products, just all
combusted tobacco products, or some
other category or group of tobacco
products? If not, what distinctions
should be made between products?
4. If a product standard prohibiting or
limiting menthol were to be established,
what length of time should
manufacturers be provided to achieve
compliance with the standard? If a
product standard prohibiting or limiting
menthol were to be established, would
a stepped approach in which the level
of menthol was gradually reduced be
C. Other Actions and Considerations
1. Are there other tobacco product
standards, regulatory, or other actions
that FDA could implement that would
more effectively reduce the harms
caused by menthol cigarette smoking
and better protect the public health than
the tobacco product standards or
regulatory actions discussed in the
preceding questions?
2. To the extent that you have
identified a tobacco product standard or
other regulatory action in response to
the prior questions, please provide
additional information and comments
on:
2.1 Is compliance with the tobacco
product standard or other regulatory
action you identified technically
achievable?
2.2 How FDA would structure a
corresponding rule to maximize
compliance, facilitate enforcement, and
otherwise maximize public health
benefits?
3. If menthol cigarettes could no
longer be legally sold, is there evidence
that illicit trade in menthol cigarettes
would become a significant problem? If
so what would be the impact of any
such illicit trade on public health? How
would any such illicit trade compare to
the existing illicit trade in cigarettes?
4. What additional information and
research beyond that described in the
evaluation is there on the potential
impact of sale and distribution
restrictions of menthol cigarettes on

specific subpopulations, such as those
based on racial, ethnic, socioeconomic
status, and sexuality/gender identity?
5. To what extent are you aware of
current (within the past 5 years)
advertising and/or promotion of
menthol cigarettes that have targeted
specific communities, subpopulations,
and locations, beyond that described in
the evaluation?
6. Might any current advertising or
other marketing or public statements
concerning menthol cigarettes, or
menthol in other tobacco products,
constitute reduced risk claims?

I. Background
On March 8, 2012, the State of West
Virginia through the West Virginia
Department of Environmental Protection
(WVDEP) formally submitted a request
to redesignate the West Virginia portion
of the Wheeling Area from
nonattainment to attainment of the 1997
annual PM2.5 NAAQS. Concurrently,
West Virginia submitted a maintenance
plan for the Area as a SIP revision to
ensure continued attainment throughout
the Area over the next 10 years.
On December 11, 2012 (77 FR 73575),
EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) determining that the
Wheeling Area has attained the 1997
annual PM2.5 NAAQS and that the Area
has met the requirements for
redesignation under section 107(d)(3)(E)
of the Clean Air Act (CAA). In the
December 11, 2012 NPR, EPA proposed
several actions related to the
redesignation of the Area to attainment
for the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS. First,
EPA proposed to approve West
Virginia’s request to change the legal
definition of the West Virginia portion
of the Wheeling Area from
nonattainment to attainment for the
