Isoxadifen-ethyl; Pesticide Tolerance
This regulation establishes tolerances for residues of isoxadifen-ethyl (ethyl 5,5-diphenyl-2-isoxazoline-3-carboxylate; CAS Reg. No. 163520-33-0) and its metabolite 4,5-dihydro-5,5,diphenyl-3- isoxazolecarboxylic acid when used as an inert ingredient (safener) in or on corn, sweet, kernel plus cob with husks removed; corn, sweet, forage; corn, sweet, stover; corn, pop, grain; corn, pop, stover; and corn, oil. EPA is also revising existing tolerances for residues of isoxadifen-ethyl in or on corn, field, forage and corn, field, hay, and removing the seasonal application rate specification from existing tolerances. Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4) and Bayer CropScience requested certain tolerance amendments for the inert ingredient safener isoxadifen-ethyl under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA).
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut
EPA is approving a Tribal Implementation Plan (TIP) submitted by the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut. The TIP establishes an enforceable cap on nitrogen oxide emissions from stationary sources owned by the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority and located within the external boundaries of the Mohegan Reservation. This action is intended to help attain the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ground-level ozone. This action is being taken in accordance with the Clean Air Act.
Sethoxydim; Pesticide Tolerance Technical Amendment
EPA issued an amendment establishing tolerances for combined residues of sethoxydim; 2-[1-(ethoxyimino)butyl]-5-[2- (ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one; and its metabolites containing the 2-cyclohexen-1-one moiety (calculated as sethoxydim) in or on buckwheat grain, buckwheat flour, okra, borage seed, borage meal, fresh dillweed leaves, radish tops, turnip greens, and vegetable, root and tuber, group 1 (72 FR 8916, February 28, 2007). The tolerances were requested by Interregional Research Project No. 4 (IR-4) under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA). Because of a technical error with the structure of the regulatory table, the amendments adding new commodities to the sethoxydim tolerances could not be made. This technical amendment is being issued to correctly show the content of Sec. 180.412(a).

EPA is approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) is requesting that the Centre County ozone nonattainment area (State College Area) be redesignated as attainment for the 8-hour ozone ambient air quality standard (NAAQS). EPA is approving the ozone redesignation request for the State College Area. In conjunction with its redesignation request, PADEP submitted a SIP revision consisting of a maintenance plan for the State College Area that provides for continued attainment of the 8-hour ozone NAAQS for at least 10 years after redesignation. EPA is approving the 8-hour maintenance plan. PADEP also submitted a 2002 base year inventory for the State College Area which EPA is approving. In addition, EPA is approving the adequacy determination for the motor vehicle emission budgets (MVEBs) that are identified in the State College Area maintenance plan for purposes of transportation conformity, and is approving those MVEBs. EPA is approving the redesignation request, and the maintenance plan and the 2002 base year emissions inventory as revisions to the Pennsylvania SIP in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
