FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The site to be deleted from the NPL is: Federal Creosote Superfund Site, Manville, New Jersey. A Notice of Intent to Delete for this Site was published in the Federal Register at 79 FR 12436 on March 5, 2014. The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent to Delete was April 4, 2014. One comment was received. The comment suggested that a process be established to protect against potential future exposures to subsurface contaminants brought to the surface by redevelopment activities. Deed notices apply adequate restrictions on properties to protect against redevelopment activities that have the potential to deposit contaminated subsurface soils on the land surface. Deed notices, a required component of the selected remedy, have been implemented at the Federal Creosote Superfund Site. The selected remedy, which adequately protects human health and the environment, has been fully implemented and therefore satisfies the deletion criteria of the National Contingency Plan. EPA maintains the NPL as the list of sites that appear to present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the environment. Deletion from the NPL does not preclude further remedial action. Whenever there is a significant release from a site deleted from the NPL, the deleted site may be restored to the NPL without application of the hazard ranking system. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability in the unlikely event that future conditions warrant further actions. ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:22 Jun 17, 2014 Jkt 232001 List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 300 [EPA–HQ–OPPT–2014–0276; FRL–9910–51] rule must be received on or before July 18, 2014 (see Unit III. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).

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. 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. Background A. What action is the Agency taking? Using direct final procedures, EPA is updating the chemical identity listings SNURs for 36 chemical substances VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:22 Jun 17, 2014 Jkt 232001 which were the subject of PMNs. The SNURs were previously issued using generic chemical names. This action identifies the specific chemical name and chemical abstract number in the modified SNUR, as this information is now publicly available. EPA is not changing the significant new use reporting requirements, the basis, or the findings for these SNURs. These SNURs will continue to require persons to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing the manufacture or processing of a chemical substance for any activity designated by these SNURs as a significant new use. Receipt of such notices allows EPA to assess risks that may be presented by the intended uses and, if appropriate, to regulate the proposed use before it occurs. Previously, in the Federal Register of July 28, 2009 (74 FR 37224) (FRL–8392– 4), EPA issued a notice ‘‘TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory Update; Changing Certain Chemical Substances Identities from Confidential to NonConfidential.’’ The notice announced that the specific chemical identities of various chemical substances, including 36 subject to the SNURs identified in this direct final rule, would be listed on the public version of the TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory. B. What is the Agency’s authority for taking this action? Section 5(a)(2) of TSCA (15 U.S.C. 2604(a)(2)) authorizes EPA to determine that a use of a chemical substance is a ‘‘significant new use.’’ Once EPA determines that a use of a chemical substance is a significant new use, TSCA section 5(a)(1)(B) requires persons to submit a significant new use notice (SNUN) to EPA at least 90 days before they manufacture or process the chemical substance for that use. Persons who must report are described in § 721.5. III. Direct Final Procedures EPA is issuing these chemical identity changes as a direct final rule, as described in § 721.160(c)(3) and § 721.170(d)(4). In accordance with § 721.160(c)(3)(ii) and § 721.170(d)(4)(i)(B), the effective date of this rule is August 18, 2014 without further notice, unless EPA receives written adverse or critical comments, or notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments before July 18, 2014. If EPA receives written adverse or critical comments, or notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments, on one or more of these SNURs before July 18, 2014, EPA will withdraw the relevant sections of this direct final rule before its effective date. EPA will then PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 34635 issue a proposed SNUR for the chemical substance(s) on which adverse or critical comments were received, providing a 30-day period for public comment. This rule updates the chemical identity of SNURs for a number of chemical substances. Any person who submits adverse or critical comments, or notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments, must identify the chemical substance to which it applies. EPA will not withdraw a SNUR modification for a chemical substance not identified in the comment. IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews A. Executive Order 12866 This rule modifies SNURs for several new chemical substances that were the subject of PMNs, or TSCA section 5(e) consent orders. This action does not alter any obligations under these SNURs and therefore is not a significant action under Executive Order 12866, entitled ‘‘Regulatory Planning and Review’’ (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). B. Paperwork Reduction Act According to Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information that requires OMB approval under PRA, unless it has been approved by OMB and displays a currently valid OMB control number. The information collection requirements related to this action have already been approved by OMB pursuant to PRA under OMB control number 2070–0012 (EPA ICR No. 574). This action does not impose any burden requiring additional OMB approval. C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) This rule would provide more specific information on the chemical substances subject to the SNURs affected by the rule, and therefore does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) Based on EPA’s experience with proposing and finalizing SNURs, State, local, and Tribal governments have not been impacted by these rulemakings, and EPA does not have any reasons to believe that any State, local, or Tribal government will be impacted by this rule. As such, EPA has determined that this rule does not impose any enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or otherwise have any effect on small governments subject to the E:\FR\FM\18JNR1.SGM 18JNR1 34636 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 117 / Wednesday, June 18, 2014 / Rules and Regulations requirements of UMRA sections 202, 203, 204, or 205 (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.). E. Executive Order 13132 This action will not have a substantial direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled ‘‘Federalism’’ (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). F. Executive Order 13175 Populations and Low-Income Populations’’ (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). ■ V. Congressional Review Act Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). § 721.530 Propanoyl chloride, 3-chloro-2,2dimethyl-. (a) Chemical substance and significant new uses subject to reporting. (1) The chemical substance identified as propanoyl chloride, 3-chloro-2,2dimethyl- (PMN P–84–491; CAS No. 4300–97–4) is subject to reporting under this section for the significant new uses described in paragraph (a)(2) of this section. * * * * * ■ 5. In § 721.558, revise the section heading and paragraph (a)(1) to read as follows: List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 721 This rule does not have Tribal implications because it is not expected to have substantial direct effects on Indian Tribes. This rule does not significantly nor uniquely affect the communities of Indian Tribal governments, nor does it involve or impose any requirements that affect Indian Tribes. Accordingly, the requirements of Executive Order 13175, entitled ‘‘Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), do not apply to this rule. Dated: June 11, 2014. Maria J. Doa, Director, Chemical Control Division, Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics. G. Executive Order 13045 ■ This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045, entitled ‘‘Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because this is not an economically significant regulatory action as defined by Executive Order 12866, and this action does not address environmental health or safety risks disproportionately affecting children. H. Executive Order 13211 This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled ‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because this action is not expected to affect energy supply, distribution, or use and because this action is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    You may be potentially affected by this action if you manufacture, 
process, or use the chemical substances contained in this rule. The 
following list of North American Industrial Classification System 
(NAICS) codes is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a 
guide to help readers

[[Page 34635]]

determine whether this document applies to them. Potentially affected 
entities may include:
     Manufacturers or processors of one or more subject 
chemical substances (NAICS codes 325 and 324110), e.g., chemical 
manufacturing and petroleum refineries.

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.
    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. Background

A. What action is the Agency taking?

    Using direct final procedures, EPA is updating the chemical 
identity listings SNURs for 36 chemical substances which were the 
subject of PMNs. The SNURs were previously issued using generic 
chemical names. This action identifies the specific chemical name and 
chemical abstract number in the modified SNUR, as this information is 
now publicly available. EPA is not changing the significant new use 
reporting requirements, the basis, or the findings for these SNURs. 
These SNURs will continue to require persons to notify EPA at least 90 
days before commencing the manufacture or processing of a chemical 
substance for any activity designated by these SNURs as a significant 
new use. Receipt of such notices allows EPA to assess risks that may be 
presented by the intended uses and, if appropriate, to regulate the 
proposed use before it occurs.
    Previously, in the Federal Register of July 28, 2009 (74 FR 37224) 
(FRL-8392-4), EPA issued a notice ``TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory 
Update; Changing Certain Chemical Substances Identities from 
Confidential to Non-Confidential.'' The notice announced that the 
specific chemical identities of various chemical substances, including 
36 subject to the SNURs identified in this direct final rule, would be 
listed on the public version of the TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory.

B. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    Section 5(a)(2) of TSCA (15 U.S.C. 2604(a)(2)) authorizes EPA to 
determine that a use of a chemical substance is a ``significant new 
use.'' Once EPA determines that a use of a chemical substance is a 
significant new use, TSCA section 5(a)(1)(B) requires persons to submit 
a significant new use notice (SNUN) to EPA at least 90 days before they 
manufacture or process the chemical substance for that use. Persons who 
must report are described in Sec.  721.5.

III. Direct Final Procedures

    EPA is issuing these chemical identity changes as a direct final 
rule, as described in Sec.  721.160(c)(3) and Sec.  721.170(d)(4). In 
accordance with Sec.  721.160(c)(3)(ii) and Sec.  721.170(d)(4)(i)(B), 
the effective date of this rule is August 18, 2014 without further 
notice, unless EPA receives written adverse or critical comments, or 
notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments before July 18, 
2014.
    If EPA receives written adverse or critical comments, or notice of 
intent to submit adverse or critical comments, on one or more of these 
SNURs before July 18, 2014, EPA will withdraw the relevant sections of 
this direct final rule before its effective date. EPA will then issue a 
proposed SNUR for the chemical substance(s) on which adverse or 
critical comments were received, providing a 30-day period for public 
comment.
    This rule updates the chemical identity of SNURs for a number of 
chemical substances. Any person who submits adverse or critical 
comments, or notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments, 
must identify the chemical substance to which it applies. EPA will not 
withdraw a SNUR modification for a chemical substance not identified in 
the comment.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866

    This rule modifies SNURs for several new chemical substances that 
were the subject of PMNs, or TSCA section 5(e) consent orders. This 
action does not alter any obligations under these SNURs and therefore 
is not a significant action under Executive Order 12866, entitled 
``Regulatory Planning and Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993).

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    According to Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et 
seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to a collection of information that requires OMB 
approval under PRA, unless it has been approved by OMB and displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The information collection 
requirements related to this action have already been approved by OMB 
pursuant to PRA under OMB control number 2070-0012 (EPA ICR No. 574). 
This action does not impose any burden requiring additional OMB 
approval.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    This rule would provide more specific information on the chemical 
substances subject to the SNURs affected by the rule, and therefore 
does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    Based on EPA's experience with proposing and finalizing SNURs, 
State, local, and Tribal governments have not been impacted by these 
rulemakings, and EPA does not have any reasons to believe that any 
State, local, or Tribal government will be impacted by this rule. As 
such, EPA has determined that this rule does not impose any enforceable 
duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or otherwise have any effect on 
small governments subject to the

[[Page 34636]]

requirements of UMRA sections 202, 203, 204, or 205 (2 U.S.C. 1501 et 
seq.).

E. Executive Order 13132

    This action will not have a substantial direct effect on States, on 
the relationship between the national government and the States, or on 
the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels 
of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled 
``Federalism'' (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999).

F. Executive Order 13175

    This rule does not have Tribal implications because it is not 
expected to have substantial direct effects on Indian Tribes. This rule 
does not significantly nor uniquely affect the communities of Indian 
Tribal governments, nor does it involve or impose any requirements that 
affect Indian Tribes. Accordingly, the requirements of Executive Order 
13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), do not apply to this 
rule.

G. Executive Order 13045

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045, entitled 
``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety 
Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because this is not an 
economically significant regulatory action as defined by Executive 
Order 12866, and this action does not address environmental health or 
safety risks disproportionately affecting children.

H. Executive Order 13211

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled 
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy 
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because 
this action is not expected to affect energy supply, distribution, or 
use and because this action is not a significant regulatory action 
under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)

    In addition, since this action does not involve any technical 
standards, NTTAA section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note), does not apply to 
this action.

J. Executive Order 12898

    This action does not entail special considerations of environmental 
justice related issues as delineated by Executive Order 12898, entitled 
``Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority 
Populations and Low-Income Populations'' (59 FR 7629, February 16, 
1994).

V. Congressional Review Act

    Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 
EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required 
information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and 
the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of 
the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' 
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
