Finally, Calsonic Kansei used the LCCP model to estimate the benefits of the technology, and this modeling also supported a credit value of 1.1 grams/mile. Details of the bench testing, vehicle testing, and modeling are available in Nissan’s application. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY III. EPA Decision Process AGENCY: EPA has reviewed the applications for completeness and is now making the applications available for public review and comment as required by the regulations. The off-cycle credit applications submitted by the manufacturer (with confidential business information redacted) have been placed in the public docket (see ADDRESSES section above) and on EPA’s website at https://www.epa.gov/vehicleand-engine-certification/complianceinformation-light-duty-greenhouse-gasghg-standards. EPA is providing a 30-day comment period on the applications for off-cycle credits described in this notice, as specified by the regulations. The manufacturers may submit a written rebuttal of comments for EPA’s consideration, or may revise an application in response to comments. After reviewing any public comments and any rebuttal of comments submitted by manufacturers, EPA will make a final decision regarding the credit requests. EPA will make its decision available to the public by placing a decision document (or multiple decision documents) in the docket and on EPA’s website at the same manufacturerspecific pages shown above. While the broad methodologies used by these manufacturers could potentially be used for other vehicles and by other manufacturers, the vehicle specific data needed to demonstrate the off-cycle emissions reductions would likely be different. In such cases, a new application would be required, including an opportunity for public comment. Dated: November 1, 2019. Byron J.

AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:47 Nov 08, 2019 Jkt 250001 The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to evaluate the scientific data for 6 chemicals—allyl alcohol, bromine chloride, hydrogen bromide, hydrogen iodide, lewisite (a chemical warfare agent), and propylene imine—to develop new or updated Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) values. DATES: Electronic or written comments must be received by January 13, 2020. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by CDC–2019–0093 and Docket Number NIOSH–156–E, by either of the two following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: https:// www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments. • Mail: NIOSH Docket Office, Robert A. Taft Laboratories, MS–C34, 1090 Tusculum Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45226. Instructions: All information received in response to this notice must include the agency name and docket number (CDC–2019–0093; NIOSH–156–E). All relevant comments received will be posted without change to https:// www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided. All electronic comments should be formatted in Microsoft Word. Please make reference to CDC–2019–0093 and Docket Number NIOSH–156–E. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: R. Todd Niemeier, MS, NIOSH, MS–C32, 1090 Tusculum Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45226, telephone (513) 533–8166. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2013, NIOSH published Current Intelligence Bulletin (CIB) 66—Derivation of Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) Values [https://www.cdc.gov/ niosh/docs/2014-100/pdfs/2014100.pdf] [NIOSH 2013]. The information presented in this CIB represents the most recent update of the scientific rationale and the methodology (hereby referred to as the IDLH methodology) used to derive IDLH values. Since the establishment of the IDLH values in the 1970s, NIOSH has continued to review available scientific data to improve the protocol used to derive acute exposure guidelines, in addition to the chemicalspecific IDLH values. IDLH values are based on health effects considerations determined through a critical assessment of the toxicology and human health effects data. This approach ensures that the IDLH values reflect an airborne concentration of a substance that represents a high-risk situation that may endanger workers’ lives or health. SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00053 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 61057 The primary steps applied in the establishment of an IDLH value include the following: 1. Critical review of human and animal toxicity data to identify potentially relevant studies and characterize the various lines of evidence that can support the derivation of the IDLH value; 2. Determination of a chemical’s mode of action (MOA) or description of how a chemical exerts its toxic effects; 3. Application of duration adjustments (time scaling) to determine 30-minute-equivalent exposure concentrations and the conduct of other dosimetry adjustments, as needed; 4. Experimental or other data to establish a point of departure (POD) such as lethal concentrations (e.g., LC50), lowest observed adverse effect level (LOAEL), or no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL); 5. Selection and application of an uncertainty factor (UF) for POD or critical adverse effect concentration, identified from the available studies to account for issues associated with interspecies and intraspecies differences, severity of the observed effects, data quality, or data insufficiencies; and 6. Development of the final recommendation for the IDLH value from the various alternative lines of evidence, with use of a weight-ofevidence approach to all of the data. NIOSH seeks to obtain materials, including published and unpublished reports and research findings, to evaluate the possible acute health risks of occupational exposure to the following six chemicals: 1. Allyl Alcohol (CAS# 107–18–6) 2. Bromine Chloride (CAS# 13863–41– 7) 3. Hydrogen Bromide (CAS# 10035–10– 6) 4. Hydrogen Iodide (CAS# 10034–85–2) 5. Lewisite (a chemical warfare agent) (CAS#s 541–25–3, 40334–69–8, 40334–70–1) 6. Propylene Imine (CAS# 75–55–8) Materials also include reports of acute animal toxicity studies, acute human toxicology studies, mode of action studies, and other information about a chemical’s toxic effects such as studies on sensory or respiratory irritation, nervous system effects (e.g., dizziness, central nervous system excitability, autonomic effects, muscle tone/ equilibrium effects, sensorimotor reactivity, nervous system histopathology), metabolic toxicants, target organ toxicants, gastrointestinal effects, cardiovascular changes, and asphyxiants.

II. Background

    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. As part of the registration review process, 
the Agency has completed proposed interim decisions for all pesticides 
listed in the Table in Unit IV. Through this program, EPA is ensuring 
that each pesticide's registration is based on current scientific and 
other knowledge,

[[Page 61056]]

including its effects on human health and the environment.

III. Authority

    EPA is conducting its registration review of the chemicals listed 
in the Table in Unit IV pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal 
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural 
Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C. 
Section 3(g) of FIFRA provides, among other things, that the 
registrations of pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under 
FIFRA, a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only 
if it meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA 
section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance with 
widespread and commonly recognized practice, the pesticide product must 
perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on 
the environment; that is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the 
environment, or a human dietary risk from residues that result from the 
use of a pesticide in or on food.

IV. What action is the Agency taking?

    The registration review docket for a pesticide includes earlier 
documents related to the registration review case. For example, the 
review opened with a Preliminary Work Plan, for public comment. A Final 
Work Plan was placed in the docket following public comment on the 
Preliminary Work Plan.
    The documents in the dockets describe EPA's rationales for 
conducting additional risk assessments for the registration review of 
the pesticides included in the tables in Unit IV, as well as the 
Agency's subsequent risk findings and consideration of possible risk

[[Page 61057]]

mitigation measures. These proposed interim registration review 
decisions are supported by the rationales included in those documents. 
Following public comment, the Agency will issue interim or final 
registration review decisions for the pesticides listed in Table 1 in 
Unit IV.
    The registration review final rule at 40 CFR 155.58(a) provides for 
a minimum 60-day public comment period on all proposed interim 
registration review decisions. This comment period is intended to 
provide an opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating 
any necessary amendments to the proposed interim decision. All comments 
should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES and must be received 
by EPA on or before the closing date. These comments will become part 
of the docket for the pesticides included in the Tables in Unit IV. 
Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked 
``late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late comments.
    The Agency will carefully consider all comments received by the 
closing date and may provide a ``Response to Comments Memorandum'' in 
the docket. The interim registration review decision will explain the 
effect that any comments had on the interim decision and provide the 
Agency's response to significant comments.
    Background on the registration review program is provided at:
