SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the regulations at 40
CFR 166.24(a)(1), EPA is soliciting
public comment before making the
decision to grant the exemption.
I. General Information
khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
A. Does this action apply to me?
You may be potentially affected by
this action if you are a pesticide
manufacturer (North American
Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) (Code 32532) or involved with
the International Space Station. This
listing is not intended to be exhaustive,
but rather provides a guide to help
readers determine whether this
document applies to them. Other types
of entities not listed could also be
affected.
B. What should I consider as I prepare
my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this
information to EPA through
www.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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:08 Sep 14, 2021
Jkt 253001
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 preparing and submitting your
comments, see the commenting tips at
https://www.epa.gov/dockets/
comments.html.
3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to
achieve environmental justice, the fair
treatment and meaningful involvement
of any group, including minority and/or
low-income populations, in the
development, implementation, and
enforcement of environmental laws,
regulations, and policies. To help
address potential environmental justice
issues, the Agency seeks information on
any groups or segments of the
population who, as a result of their
location, cultural practices, or other
factors, may have atypical or
disproportionately high and adverse
human health impacts or environmental
effects from exposure to the pesticide(s)
discussed in this document, compared
to the general population.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
Under section 18 of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
Act (FIFRA) (7 U.S.C. 136p), at the
discretion of the EPA Administrator, a
Federal or State agency may be
exempted from any provision of FIFRA
if the EPA Administrator determines
that emergency conditions exist which
require the exemption. NASA has
requested the EPA Administrator to
issue a specific exemption for the use of
ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA) in the
coolant of the internal active thermal
control system (IATCS) of the
International Space Station (ISS) to
control aerobic/microaerophilic bacteria
in the aqueous coolant. Information in
accordance with 40 CFR part 166 was
submitted as part of this request.
As part of this request, the applicant
stated that it has considered the
registered biocide alternatives and has
concluded that OPA is the most
effective biocide which meets the
requisite criteria including: The need for
safe, non-intrusive implementation and
operation in a functioning system; the
ability to control existing planktonic
and biofilm-residing micro-organisms; a
negligible impact on system-wetted
materials of construction; and a
negligible reactivity with existing
coolant additives. The ISS would not
have an adequate long-term solution for
controlling the micro-organisms in the
IATCS coolant without the use of OPA.
The OPA is incorporated into a porous
resin material contained in a stainlesssteel canister. The canister containing
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the OPA-incorporated resin is inserted
into a coolant system loop, using
flexible hose and quick disconnects, and
is placed in lime for 8 hours to deliver
the OPA into the fluid. As the coolant
fluid flows through the canister, the
OPA elutes from the resin material into
the coolant fluid. The total volume of
the circulatory loops of the IATCS is
829 liters. The maximum concentration
would be 500 milligrams (mg) of OPA
per liter of coolant fluid. A total of 414,
500 mg of OPA would be needed for the
entire system. The OPA is incorporated
into the resin at 210 mg OPA per cm3
resin, resulting in a potential total use
of 1,974 cm3 of the OPA-containing
resin. The level of OPA in the coolant
is monitored periodically, and because
OPA degrades over time, the
concentration decreases to a level that is
no longer effective in about 1 to 2 years.
At this point, replenishment with new
OPA-containing canisters is required.
EPA has authorized similar emergency
exemptions for this use since 2011.
With the decision to extend the mission
of the ISS to 2024, the need for this use
is expected to continue for the duration.
This notice does not constitute a
decision by EPA on the application
itself. The regulations governing FIFRA
section 18 require publication of a
notice of receipt of an application for a
specific exemption proposing the use of
a new chemical (i.e., an active
ingredient), which has not been
registered by EPA. The notice provides
an opportunity for public comment on
the application.
The Agency will review and consider
all comments received during the
comment period in determining
whether to issue the specific exemption
requested by the NASA.

Abstract: Under the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act (‘‘Dodd-Frank Act’’), Public Law
111–203, 124 Stat. 1376 (2010), almost
all rulemaking authority for the ECOA,
EFTA, CLA, and TILA transferred from
the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System (‘‘Board’’) to the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(‘‘CFPB’’) on July 21, 2011 (‘‘transfer
date’’). To implement this transferred
authority, the CFPB published new
regulations in 12 CFR part 1002
(Regulation B), 12 CFR part 1005
(Regulation E), 12 CFR part 1013
(Regulation M), and 12 CFR part 1026
(Regulation Z) for those entities under
its rulemaking jurisdiction.1 Although
the Dodd-Frank Act transferred most
rulemaking authority under ECOA,
EFTA, CLA, and TILA to the CFPB, the
Board retained rulemaking authority for
certain motor vehicle dealers 2 under all
of these statutes and also for certain
interchange-related requirements under
EFTA.3
As a result of the Dodd-Frank Act, the
FTC and the CFPB generally share the
authority to enforce Regulations B, E, M,
and Z for entities for which the FTC had
enforcement authority before the Act,
except for certain motor vehicle
dealers.4 Because of this shared
1 12 CFR pt. 1002 (Reg. B) (81 FR 25323, Apr. 28,
2016); 12 CFR pt. 1005 (Reg. E) (81 FR 25323, Apr.
28, 2016); 12 CFR pt. 1013 (Reg. M) (81 FR 25323,
Apr. 28, 2016); 12 CFR pt. 1026 (Reg. Z) (81 FR
25323, Apr. 28, 2016).
2 Generally, these are dealers ‘‘predominantly
engaged in the sale and servicing of motor vehicles,
the leasing and servicing of motor vehicles, or
both.’’ See Dodd-Frank Act, § 1029(a), (c), 12 U.S.C.
5519(a), (c).
3 See Dodd-Frank Act, § 1075, 15 U.S.C. 1693
(these requirements are implemented through Board
Regulation II, 12 CFR pt. 235, rather than EFTA’s
implementing Regulation E).
4 The FTC’s enforcement authority includes statechartered credit unions; other federal agencies also
have various enforcement authority over credit
unions. For example, for large credit unions
(exceeding $10 billion in assets), the CFPB has
certain authority. The National Credit Union
