SUMMARY:
E:\FR\FM\29OCN1.SGM
29OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 207 / Friday, October 29, 2021 / Notices
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public
in general and may be of interest to a
wide range of stakeholders including
environmental, human health, farm
worker, and agricultural advocates; the
chemical industry; pesticide users; and
members of the public interested in the
sale, distribution, or use of pesticides.
Since others also may be interested, the
Agency has not attempted to describe all
the specific entities that may be affected
by this action. If you have any questions
regarding the applicability of this action
to a particular entity, consult the
Chemical Review Manager identified in
the Table in Unit IV.
B. What should I consider as I prepare
my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this
information to EPA through
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
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 pesticides
discussed in this document, compared
to the general population.
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 comprehensive
draft human health and/or ecological
risk assessments for all pesticides listed
in the Table in Unit IV. After reviewing
comments received during the public
comment period, EPA may issue a
revised risk assessment, explain any
changes to the draft risk assessment, and
respond to comments and may request
public input on risk mitigation before
60037
completing a proposed registration
review decision for the 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,
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?
Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice
announces the availability of EPA’s
human health and/or ecological risk
assessments for the pesticides shown in
the following table and opens a 60-day
public comment period on the risk
assessments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a
summary of the Hearing Designation
Order and Order to Show Cause (Order),
MB Docket No. 21–401, FCC DA 21–
1305, adopted and released October 19,
2021. The full text of the Order is
available online by using the search
function for MB Docket No. 21–401 on
the Commission’s ECFS web page at
https://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/.
Summary of the Hearing Designation
Order
1. The Order commences a hearing
proceeding before the Commission to
determine whether certain criminal
convictions render licensee, Roger Wahl
(Wahl), unqualified to hold FCC
authorizations, and consequently,
whether the license for WQZS(FM),
Meyersdale, PA should be revoked
under section 312(a)(2) and 312(c) of the
Communications Act of 1934 (Act), 47
U.S.C. 312(a)(2) and 312(c). This
revocation proceeding stems from
Wahl’s felony conviction and related
misdemeanor convictions in 2020 under
the Pennsylvania Crimes Code.
2. In determining whether a party is
qualified to be a broadcast station
licensee, the Commission considers
factors specified in the Act, including
character qualifications. Section
312(a)(2) of the Act, 47 U.S.C. 312(a)(2),
provides that the Commission may
revoke any license if conditions present
would warrant refusal to grant a license
or permit. Because the Commission
considers character qualify in its review
of broadcast applications, a character
defect that would warrant the
Commission’s refusal to grant a license
or permit would likewise support a
Commission determination to revoke a
license or permit.
3. Non-FCC misconduct may raise
substantial and material questions of
fact concerning the licensee’s character.
The Commission considers evidence of
felony convictions because felonies are
PO 00000
Frm 00063
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
serious crimes and conviction provides
an indication regarding an applicant’s
propensity to obey laws and conform to
provisions of the Act, Rules, and
Commission policies. The Commission
retains discretion to consider other
types of non-FCC misconduct that may
be relevant, including misdemeanors.
4. On July 8, 2020, Wahl pleaded
guilty to criminal use of a
communication facility, which is a
third-degree felony, and four related
misdemeanors. Specifically, Wahl
pleaded guilty to second-degree
misdemeanors of recklessly endangering
another person, unlawful dissemination
of an intimate image, and tampering
with evidence. He also initially pleaded
guilty to invasion of privacy.
5. The facts supporting Wahl’s guilty
plea were recited for the court at the
time his plea was entered, and Wahl
himself confirmed that the recitation
was accurate. Wahl had secretly taken
nude photos of a woman inside her
home using a concealed camera
installed in her bathroom; (b)
impersonated the woman on an online
dating site; (c) sent the nude photos of
the woman to at least one man whom
he connected with through that site; and
(d) solicited that man to have sexual
relationships with the woman without
her consent. In addition, Wahl deleted
the nude photos of the woman from his
mobile phone, and deleted the
communications he made via the online
dating site upon learning of the
Pennsylvania State Police investigation.
6. Subsequently, according to the
record in the criminal proceeding, Wahl
learned that a conviction on the
invasion of privacy charge would
require registration and notification as a
sex offender. Thus, he withdrew his
plea of guilty with respect to that
charge, and on November 16, 2020,
instead pleaded guilty to identity theft,
a first-degree misdemeanor. At that
time, Wahl was sentenced to concurrent
sentences that effectively placed him on
probation for three years, with four
months of electronic monitoring, and
required him to pay $600 in fines and
the costs of his prosecution and
supervision.
7. Wahl’s guilty plea to criminal use
of a communication facility, a thirddegree felony, by itself, raises the
question under the Commission’s
Character Qualifications Policy
Statement whether he possesses the
requisite character qualifications to
remain a Commission licensee.
Reliability is a key element of character
necessary to operate a broadcast station
in the public interest. The propensity to
comply with the law generally is
relevant to character qualifications, and

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.53(c), EPA is providing an opportunity,
through this notice of availability, for interested parties to provide
comments and input concerning the Agency's draft human health and/or
ecological risk assessments for the pesticides listed in the Table in
Unit IV. The Agency will consider all comments received during the
public comment period and make changes, as appropriate, to a draft
human health and/or ecological risk assessment. EPA may then issue a
revised risk assessment, explain any changes to the draft risk
assessment, and respond to comments.
Information submission requirements. Anyone may submit data or
information
[[Page 60038]]
in response to this document. To be considered during a pesticide's
registration review, the submitted data or information must meet the
following requirements:
To ensure that EPA will consider data or information
submitted, interested persons must submit the data or information
during the comment period. The Agency may, at its discretion, consider
data or information submitted at a later date.
The data or information submitted must be presented in a
legible and useable form. For example, an English translation must
accompany any material that is not in English and a written transcript
must accompany any information submitted as an audio-graphic or video-
graphic record. Written material may be submitted in paper or
electronic form.
Submitters must clearly identify the source of any
submitted data or information.
Submitters may request the Agency to reconsider data or
information that the Agency rejected in a previous review. However,
submitters must explain why they believe the Agency should reconsider
the data or information in the pesticide's registration review.
As provided in 40 CFR 155.58, the registration review docket for
each pesticide case will remain publicly accessible through the
duration of the registration review process; that is, until all actions
required in the final decision on the registration review case have
been completed.
