1:00pm–4:15pm Panel 2: Uplift
Causation and Allocation (with a 15
minute break)
Panel 2 will explore the
circumstances under which INCs/DECs
and UTC transactions may cause uplift
in PJM and, if so, how INCs/DECs and
UTC transactions should be allocated
uplift charges. In the context of
assessing PJM’s uplift allocation, the
Panel will discuss: (1) the extent to
which uplift may be caused by INCs/
DECs and UTC transactions; and (2)
different ways to potentially allocate
uplift to INCs/DECs and UTC
transactions.
During the discussion on uplift
causation, Panelists should be prepared
to address the following:
• How, if at all, do INCs/DECs and
UTC transactions cause uplift?
• In which way, if at all, is uplift
caused by INCs/DECs and UTC
transactions associated with congestion,
divergences between day-ahead and
real-time physical energy requirements,
or other positions held by each market
participant?
• Are there methods available to
accurately and dynamically determine
any uplift that may be caused by INCs/
DECs and UTC transactions?
During the discussion on uplift
allocation, Panelists should be prepared
to address the following:
• The status of PJM’s Energy Market
Uplift Senior Task Force.
• What principle(s) should be
followed if and when allocating uplift to
INCs/DECs and UTC transactions? For
instance, one potential solution is that
uplift costs should be strictly allocated
based on cost causation determinations.
Other potential solutions may be guided
by simplicity, predictability, or multiple
objectives. What new, if any, uplift
allocation rules should be implemented
based on this principle(s)?
• Under which, if any, circumstances
should INCs/DECs and UTC

III. Summary of Public Comments
Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period,
EPA received one comment. The
comment did not contain information
about any specific product cancellation
request. For this reason, the Agency
does not believe that the comment
submitted during the comment period
merit further review or a denial of the
request for voluntary cancellation.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7
U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby approves
the requested cancellations of the
registrations identified in Table 1 of
Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby
orders that the product registrations
identified in Table 1 of Unit II. are
canceled. The effective date of the
cancellations that are the subject of this
notice is December 17, 2014. Any
distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in
Table 1 of Unit II. in a manner
inconsistent with any of the provisions
for disposition of existing stocks set
forth in Unit VI. will be a violation of
FIFRA.
V. What is the Agency’s authority for
taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C.
136d(f)(1)) provides that a registrant of

Frm 00037
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
a pesticide product may at any time
request that any of its pesticide
registrations be canceled or amended to
terminate one or more uses. FIFRA
further provides that, before acting on
the request, EPA must publish a notice
of receipt of any such request in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, following
the public comment period, the EPA
Administrator may approve such a
request. The notice of receipt for this
action was published for comment in
the Federal Register of April 11, 2014
(79 FR 20200) (FRL–9908–81). The
comment period closed on October 8,
2014.
VI. Provisions for Disposition of
Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of
registered pesticide products which are
currently in the United States and
which were packaged, labeled, and
released for shipment prior to the
effective date of the cancellation action.
The existing stocks provisions for the
products subject to this order are as
follows.
The registrants may continue to sell
and distribute existing stocks of
products listed in Table 1 of Unit II.
until December 17, 2015, which is 1
year after the publication of the
cancellation order in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, the registrants are
prohibited from selling or distributing
products listed in Table 1 of Unit II.,
except for export in accordance with
FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or
proper disposal. Persons other than the
registrants may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of products listed in
Table 1 of Unit II. until existing 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.

Standard Industrial Classification
Code (SIC): Multiple.
Description of Affected Public: Any
employer, Government contractor, labor
organization, or employment agency
covered by the Federal equal
employment opportunity laws.
Respondents: 914,843.
Responses: 2 914,843.
Recordkeeping Hours: 6,372,498 per
year.
Number of Forms: None.
Form Number: None.
Frequency of Report: None.
Abstract: The Uniform Guidelines
provide fundamental guidance for all
Title VII-covered employers about the
use of employment selection
procedures. The records addressed by
UGESP are used by respondents to
ensure that they are complying with
Title VII and Executive Order 11246; by
the Federal agencies that enforce Title
VII and Executive Order 11246 to
investigate, conciliate, and litigate
charges of employment discrimination;
and by complainants to establish
violations of Federal equal employment
opportunity laws. While there is no data
available to quantify these benefits, the
collection of accurate applicant flow
data enhances each employer’s ability to
address any deficiencies in recruitment
and selection processes, including
detecting barriers to equal employment
opportunity.
Burden Statement: There are no
reporting requirements associated with
UGESP. The burden being estimated is
the cost of collecting and storing a job
applicant’s gender, race, and ethnicity
data. The only paperwork burden
derives from this recordkeeping.
Only employers covered under Title
VII and Executive Order 11246 are
subject to UGESP. For the purpose of
burden calculation, employers with 15
or more employees are counted. The
number of such employers is estimated
at 914,843, which combines estimates
1 29 CFR. part 1607, 41 CFR part 60–3, 28 CFR
part 50, 5 CFR part 300.
2 The number of respondents is equal to the
number of responses (i.e. one response per person).
Introduction
The Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission (EEOC or Commission)
gives notice of its intent to submit the
recordkeeping requirements contained
in the Uniform Guidelines on Employee
Selection Procedures (UGESP or
Uniform Guidelines) 1 to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for a
three-year extension without change
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (PRA). Concurrent with this
notice, EEOC is requesting OMB
approval for a brief emergency
extension of the UGESP recordkeeping
requirement to begin immediately after
the current December 31, 2014
expiration date.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period, EPA received one comment. The
comment did not contain information about any specific product
cancellation request. For this reason, the Agency does not believe that
the comment submitted during the comment period merit further review or
a denial of the request for voluntary cancellation.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations of the registrations identified in
Table 1 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the
product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. are canceled.
The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject of this
notice is December 17, 2014. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in Table 1 of Unit II. in a manner
inconsistent with any of the provisions for disposition of existing
stocks set forth in Unit VI. will be a violation of FIFRA.
V. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)) provides that a
registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of
its pesticide registrations be canceled or amended to terminate one or
more uses. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, following the public comment period, the EPA
Administrator may approve such a request. The notice of receipt for
this action was published for comment in the Federal Register of April
11, 2014 (79 FR 20200) (FRL-9908-81). The comment period closed on
October 8, 2014.
VI. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
which are currently in the United States and which were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
cancellation action. The existing stocks provisions for the products
subject to this order are as follows.
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until December 17, 2015,
which is 1 year after the publication of the cancellation order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 1 of Unit II., except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or
proper disposal. Persons other than the registrants may sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 of
Unit II. until existing 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.
