Adequacy Status of the West Virginia
Portion of the Steubenville-Weirton,
WV-OH Nonattainment Area Submitted
for the 2006 Fine Particulate Matter
Standard Redesignation Request and
Maintenance Plan for Transportation
Conformity Purposes
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of adequacy.
AGENCY:
In this notice, EPA is
notifying the public that we have made
insignificance findings through the
transportation conformity adequacy
process, under the Clean Air Act (CAA),
for directly emitted fine particulate
matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides
(NOX) in the West Virginia portion of
the Steubenville-Weirton, WV-OH 2006
PM2.5 national ambient air quality
standard (NAAQS) nonattainment area.
West Virginia submitted the
insignificance findings with the
redesignation request and maintenance
plan submittal on June 8, 2012. As a
result of EPA’s findings, the West
Virginia portion of the SteubenvilleWeirton, WV-OH nonattainment area is
no longer required to perform a regional
emissions analysis for directly emitted
PM2.5, or NOX, as part of future PM2.5
conformity determinations for the 2006
daily PM2.5 air quality standard.
DATES: Effective on December 19, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Today’s
notice is simply an announcement of a
finding that EPA has already made. EPA
Region III sent a letter to the West
Virginia Department of Environmental
Protection on September 25, 2013
stating that EPA has made
insignificance findings, through the
adequacy process, for PM2.5 and NOX for
the West Virginia portion of the
Steubenville-Weirton, WV-OH 2006
PM2.5 NAAQS nonattainment area, as
the State had requested in its
redesignation and maintenance plan
submittal. Receipt of the submittal was
announced on EPA’s transportation
conformity Web site. No comments were
received. The findings letter is available
at EPA’s conformity Web site: https://

SUMMARY:

Jkt 232001
Transportation conformity is required
by section 176(c) of the CAA. EPA’s
conformity rule requires that
transportation plans, transportation
improvement programs, and projects
conform to state air quality
implementation plans (SIPs) and
establishes the criteria and procedures
for determining whether or not they do.
Conformity to a SIP means that
transportation activities will not
produce new air quality violations,
worsen existing violations, or delay
timely attainment of the national
ambient air quality standards.
The criteria by which we determine
whether a SIP’s motor vehicle emission
budgets are adequate for conformity
purposes are outlined in 40 CFR
93.118(e)(4). EPA described the process
for determining the adequacy of
submitted SIP budgets in a July 1, 2004
preamble starting at 69 FR 40038 and
used the information in these resources
in making this adequacy determination.
Please note that an adequacy review is
separate from EPA’s completeness
review, and should not be used to
prejudge EPA’s ultimate approval action
for the SIP. Even if EPA finds a budget
adequate, the SIP could later be
disapproved.
The finding and the response to
comments are available at EPA’s
conformity Web site: https://
www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/

III. What is the agency’s authority for
taking this action?
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing
Stocks
EXPORT-IMPORT BANK OF THE
UNITED STATES
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that
a registrant of a pesticide product may
at any time request that any of its
pesticide registrations be canceled.
FIFRA further provides that, before
acting on the request, EPA must publish
a notice of receipt of any such request
in the Federal Register.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA requires
that before acting on a request for
voluntary cancellation, EPA must
provide a 30-day public comment
period on the request for voluntary
cancellation or use termination. In
addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C)
requires that EPA provide a 180-day
comment period on a request for
voluntary cancellation or termination of
any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of
the comment period, or
2. The EPA Administrator determines
that continued use of the pesticide
would pose an unreasonable adverse
effect on the environment.
The registrants in Table 2 of Unit II.
have not requested that EPA waive the
180-day comment period. Accordingly,
EPA will provide a 180-day comment
period on the proposed requests.
Existing stocks are those stocks of
registered pesticide products that are
currently in the United States and that
were packaged, labeled, and released for
shipment prior to the effective date of
the cancellation action. Because the
Agency has identified no significant
potential risk concerns associated with
these pesticide products, upon
cancellation of the products identified
in Table 1 of Unit II., EPA anticipates
allowing registrants to sell and
distribute existing stocks of these
products for 1 year after publication of
the cancellation order in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, registrants will be
prohibited from selling or distributing
the pesticides identified in Table 1 of
Unit II., except for export consistent
with FIFRA section 17 or for proper
disposal. Persons other than registrants
will generally be allowed to sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks until
such stocks are exhausted, provided that
such sale, distribution, or use is
consistent with the terms of the
previously approved labeling on, or that
accompanied, the canceled products.

IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of
Request
Registrants who choose to withdraw a
request for cancellation should submit
such withdrawal in writing to the
person listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT. If the products
have been subject to a previous
cancellation action, the effective date of
cancellation and all other provisions of
any earlier cancellation action are
controlling.

III. What is the agency's authority for taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide
product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations
be canceled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA requires that before acting on a
request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide a 30-day public
comment period on the request for voluntary cancellation or use
termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C) requires that EPA
provide a 180-day comment period on a request for voluntary
cancellation or termination of any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
2. The EPA Administrator determines that continued use of the
pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
The registrants in Table 2 of Unit II. have not requested that EPA
waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a 180-
day comment period on the proposed requests.
IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request
Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation
should submit such withdrawal in writing to the person listed under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the products have been subject to a
previous cancellation action, the effective date of cancellation and
all other provisions of any earlier cancellation action are
controlling.
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are currently in the United States and that were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
cancellation action. Because the Agency has identified no significant
potential risk concerns associated with these pesticide products, upon
cancellation of the products identified in Table 1 of Unit II., EPA
anticipates allowing registrants to sell and distribute existing stocks
of these products for 1 year after publication of the cancellation
order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, registrants will be
prohibited from selling or distributing the pesticides identified in
Table 1 of Unit II., except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17
or for proper disposal. Persons other than registrants will generally
be allowed to sell, distribute, or use existing stocks until such
stocks are exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use is
consistent with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or
that accompanied, the canceled products.
