Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 174 / Monday, September 13, 2021 / Notices
II. Background
Section 24(c) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C.
136v(c)) authorizes States to register
‘‘additional uses of federally registered
pesticides to meet special local needs.’’
Pursuant to FIFRA section 24(c), EPA’s
regulations at 40 CFR 162.154(h) require
States to notify EPA of such special
local needs registrations. EPA’s
regulations pertaining to such special
local need registrations state that ‘‘the
Administrator may disapprove, on any
reasonable grounds, any state [special
local needs] registration . . . Grounds
for disapproval . . . include . . .
[p]robable creation of unreasonable
adverse effects on man or the
environment by the registered use[and
f]ailure of information submitted by the
State to support the State’s decision to
issue the registration under the
standards established by § 162.153.’’ 40
CFR 162.154(a)(1). In addition, FIFRA
Section 24(c)(1) precludes state SLN
registrations ‘‘if registration for such use
has . . . previously been denied,
disapproved, or canceled by the
Administrator, or voluntarily canceled
by the registrant subsequent to issuance
of a notice of intent to cancel because
of health or environmental concerns
about an ingredient contained in the
pesticide product.’’ 40 CFR
162.152(a)(3).
III. Disapproval of Special Local Need
Registrations
On March 15, 2021, EPA disapproved
special local need registrations from the
North Carolina Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services to
extend the application cut-off dates to
July 31 for over-the-top (OTT) use of the
following dicamba products on
dicamba-tolerant soybean and dicambatolerant cotton:
1. EPA SLN No. NC200005—XtendiMax®
with Vapor Grip® Technology (EPA Reg. No.
264–1210); containing dicamba.
2. EPA SLN No. NC210001—Engenia®
Herbicide (EPA Reg. No. 7969–472);
containing dicamba.

On April 9, 2021, EPA disapproved
special local need registrations from the
Tennessee Department of Agriculture to
extend the application cut-off date to
July 30 for OTT use of the following
dicamba products on dicamba-tolerant
soybean:
1. EPA SLN No. TN210001—XtendiMax®

Clean Water Act: No-Discharge Zones

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice—final determination;
correction.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is correcting a notice of
final determination published on May
11, 2021. EPA determined that adequate
facilities for the safe and sanitary
removal and treatment of sewage from
all vessels were reasonably available to
support the State’s prohibition of vessel
sewage discharges in thirteen
waterbodies in Anne Arundel County,
Maryland, but has since identified
errors in the geographic coordinates that
correspond to the boundaries of the nodischarge zones as described in the
earlier notice. This notice simply
corrects those geographic coordinate
errors; it does not otherwise change
EPA’s May 11, 2021 final determination.
DATES: This correction is effective on
September 13, 2021.

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
50883
On May
11, 2021 (86 FR 25856), EPA published
a notice of final determination, ‘‘Clean
Water Act: No-Discharge Zones for
Vessel Sewage in Maryland and
Virginia.’’ The notice explained EPA’s
determination that adequate facilities
for the safe and sanitary removal and
treatment of sewage from all vessels are
reasonably available for the thirteen
waterbodies located in Anne Arundel
County for which Maryland sought to
establish a no-discharge zone for vessel
sewage under Clean Water Act section
312(f)(3). The document also provided
one of the geographic coordinates from
an existing no-discharge zone for Perrin
River, Virginia, published at 85 FR
59796 on September 23, 2020.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Need for Correction
As published, the notice of the final
determination misidentified the
geographic coordinates of the nodischarge zone boundaries for Bodkin
Creek, Magothy and Little Magothy
Rivers, Podickory Creek, Sandy Point/
Mezick Pond, Severn River, Fishing
Creek, and South River waterbodies.
The notice explained these boundaries
in narrative terms; the earlier-published
geographic coordinates did not
correspond to the narrative descriptions
of the boundaries for which EPA made
the determination. Upon identifying the
errors, EPA confirmed the correct
geographic coordinates with Maryland.
EPA finds that there is good cause to
make this correction without prior
notice and opportunity to comment on
the basis that notice and comment is
unnecessary and would not be in the
public interest. The change merely
conforms numeric geographic
coordinates to the clear narrative
descriptions and detailed maps of the
no-discharge zone boundaries that were
included in Maryland’s application and
upon which EPA’s approval was based.
As such, this correction does not alter
EPA’s earlier determination. EPA
further determines that good cause
exists to make the change effective upon
publication, rather than delay the
effective date, because the narrative
boundary descriptions are clear,
rendering a delayed effective date
unnecessary. In addition, public interest
requires prompt confirmation of the
correct numeric geographic coordinates
further describing the no-discharge zone
boundaries.
