Propanoic Acid, 3-hydroxy-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl-, Polymer With 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, α-hydro-ω-hydroxypoly[oxy(methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)], 5-isocyanato-1-(isocyanatomethyl)-1,3,3-trimethylcyclohexane and Methyloxirane Polymer With Oxirane Ether With 4,4′-(1-methylethylidene)bis[phenol] (2:1), Polyethylene-Polypropylene Glycol 2-aminopropyl Me Ether-Blocked, Compds. With 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol; Tolerance Exemption
This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of propanoic acid, 3-hydroxy- (hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl-, polymer with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, [alpha]-hydro-[omega]-hydroxypoly[oxy(methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)] , 5- isocyanato-1-(isocyanatomethyl)-1,3,3-trimethylcyclohexane and methyloxirane polymer with oxirane ether with 4,4'-(1- methylethylidene)bis[phenol] (2:1), polyethylene-polypropylene glycol 2-aminopropyl Me ether-blocked, compds. with 2-amino-2-methyl-1- propanol (IN-11729) when used as an inert ingredient in a pesticide chemical formulation. Nouryon Surface Chemistry LLC submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of propanoic acid, 3-hydroxy-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methyl-, polymer with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, [alpha]-hydro-[omega]- hydroxypoly[oxy(methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)], 5-isocyanato-1- (isocyanatomethyl)-1,3,3-trimethylcyclohexane and methyloxirane polymer with oxirane ether with 4,4'-(1-methylethylidene)bis[phenol] (2:1), polyethylene-polypropylene glycol 2-aminopropyl Me ether-blocked, compds. with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol on food or feed commodities when used in accordance with these exemptions.
Air Plan Approval; Pennsylvania; Infrastructure State Implementation Plan Revision Clean Air Act Section 110 Applicable Requirements for the 2015 8-Hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS)
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a state implementation plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Whenever EPA promulgates a new or revised national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS or standard), the Clean Air Act (CAA) requires states to make SIP submissions to provide for the implementation, maintenance, and enforcement of the NAAQS. The infrastructure requirements are designed to ensure that the structural components of each state's air quality management program are adequate to meet the state's responsibilities under the CAA. Pennsylvania has formally submitted a SIP revision addressing the following infrastructure elements, or portions thereof, of certain sections of the CAA for the 2015 8-hour ozone NAAQS. EPA is proposing to approve Pennsylvania's submittal addressing the infrastructure requirements for the 2015 ozone NAAQS in accordance with the requirements of the CAA apart from visibility protection, which was not submitted with the current action.
2-Propenoic Acid, Methyl-, Polymer With Butyl 2-Propenoate and Methyl 2-Methyl-2-Propenoate Compd. With 2-Amino-2-Methyl-1-Propanol; Tolerance Exemption
This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of 2-propenoic acid, methyl-, polymer with butyl 2-propenoate and methyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate compd. with 2- amino-2-methyl-1-propanol when used as an inert ingredient in a pesticide chemical formulation. Nouryon Chemicals LLC submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of 2-propenoic acid, methyl-, polymer with butyl 2- propenoate and methyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate compd. with 2-amino-2- methyl-1-propanol on food or feed commodities when used in accordance with these exemptions.
Zein; Exemption From the Requirement of a Tolerance
This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of zein (CAS Reg. No. 9010-66-6) when used as an inert ingredient (stabilizing agent) in pesticide formulations applied to animals. The United States Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS), submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting establishment of an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of zein when used in accordance with the terms of the exemption.
Air Plan Approval; Ohio; Consumer Products Rule
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve, under the Clean Air Act (CAA), a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) on September 7, 2022. Ohio EPA requests that EPA approve revised volatile organic compounds (VOCs) control rules under Chapter 3745-112 of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) into Ohio's SIP. The revised rules will reduce emissions that contribute to ozone formation and assist with efforts to achieve and maintain the 2015 ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). EPA finds that these rules are approvable because they are SIP strengthening measures.
Cumulative Risk Assessment; Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC) Virtual Public Meeting; Notice of Availability and Request for Comment
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the availability of and soliciting public comment on two draft documents that are being submitted to the Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC) for peer review: ``Draft Proposed Principles of Cumulative Risk Assessment under the Toxic Substances Control Act'' and ``Draft Proposed Approach for Cumulative Risk Assessment of High-Priority Phthalates and a Manufacturer-Requested Phthalate under the Toxic Substance Control Act.'' The SACC will consider and review these documents at a 4-day virtual public meeting on May 8 to 11, 2023, that was previously announced in the Federal Register of December 21, 2022.
Allocations of Cross-State Air Pollution Rule Allowances From New Unit Set-Asides for 2022 Control Periods
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing notice of the availability of data on emission allowance allocations to certain units under the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR) trading programs. EPA has completed preliminary calculations for the allocations of allowances from the CSAPR new unit set-asides (NUSAs) for the 2022 control periods and has posted spreadsheets containing the calculations on EPA's website. EPA will consider timely objections to the preliminary calculations (including objections concerning the identification of units eligible for allocations) before determining the final amounts of the allocations.
Proposed CERCLA Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent: City of Salem, Mansell Field Site, Salem, Massachusetts
