The Drug Enforcement Administration proposes placing N-(1-(2- fluorophenethyl)piperidin-4-yl)-N-(2-fluorophenyl)propionamid e (2'- fluoro ortho-fluorofentanyl), N-(1-(4-methylphenethyl)piperidin-4-yl)- N-phenylacetamide (4'-methyl acetyl fentanyl), N-(1-phenethylpiperidin- 4-yl)-N,3-diphenylpropanamide ([beta]'-phenyl fentanyl; 3- phenylpropanoyl fentanyl), N-phenyl-N-(1-(2-phenylpropyl)piperidin-4- yl)propionamide ([beta]-methyl fentanyl), N-(2-fluorophenyl)-N-(1- phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)butyramide (ortho-fluorobutyryl fentanyl; 2- fluorobutyryl fentanyl), N-(2-methylphenyl)-N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4- yl)acetamide (ortho-methyl acetylfentanyl; 2-methyl acetylfentanyl), 2- methoxy-N-(2-methylphenyl)-N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)aceta mide (ortho-methyl methoxyacetylfentanyl), N-(4-methylphenyl)-N-(1- phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)propionamide (para-methylfentanyl; 4- methylfentanyl), N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N-phenylbenzamide (phenyl fentanyl; benzoyl fentanyl), N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N- phenylthiophene-2-carboxamide (thiofuranyl fentanyl), including their isomers, esters, ethers, salts, and salts of isomers, esters, and ethers, in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act.

If finalized, this action would make permanent the existing regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions applicable to schedule I controlled substances on persons who handle (manufacture, distribute, reverse distribute, import, export, engage in research, conduct instructional activities or chemical analysis, or possess), or propose to handle 2'- fluoro ortho-fluorofentanyl, 4'-methyl acetyl fentanyl, [beta]'-phenyl fentanyl, [beta]-methyl fentanyl, ortho-fluorobutyryl fentanyl, ortho- methyl acetylfentanyl, ortho-methyl methoxyacetyl fentanyl, para- methylfentanyl, phenyl fentanyl, and thiofuranyl fentanyl.
Announcement of Final Regulatory Determinations for Contaminants on the Fourth Drinking Water Contaminant Candidate List
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is announcing final regulatory determinations for eight of the 109 contaminants listed on the Fourth Contaminant Candidate List.

Elimination of the Voluntary Trichinae Certification Program
We are proposing to eliminate the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Voluntary Trichinae Certification Program and remove the regulations associated with the program. This action would also notify the public that APHIS will no longer maintain any activity associated with the program, such as training for qualified accredited veterinarians, on-farm audits, or any other administrative process associated with program maintenance and support. We are proposing to eliminate the program because it generates little producer participation. This action would allow APHIS to direct APHIS resources to areas of greater need.
Air Plan Approval; Arizona; Miami Copper Smelter Sulfur Dioxide Control Measures
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve revisions to the Arizona State Implementation Plan (SIP).

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plan; Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approves the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation's (MPTN or the Tribe) Tribal Implementation Plan (TIP) under the Clean Air Act (CAA) to regulate air pollution within the exterior boundaries of the Tribe's reservation. The TIP is one of two CAA regulatory programs that comprise the Tribe's Clean Air Program (CAP). EPA approved the Tribe for treatment in the same manner as a State (Treatment as State or TAS) for purposes of administering New Source Review (NSR) and Title V operating permits under the CAA on July 10, 2008. In this action we act only on those portions of MPTN's CAP that constitute a TIP containing severable elements of an implementation plan under CAA section 110(a). The TIP includes permitting requirements for major and minor sources of air pollution. The purpose of the TIP is to enable the Tribe to attain and maintain the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) within the exterior boundaries of its reservation by establishing a federally enforceable preconstruction permitting program.
