The required notification will provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit that activity before it occurs.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-18793 RIN EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-0629 FRL-8846-7 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This rule is effective August 3, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 1, 9, 150, 164, 178, 179, 700, 712, 716, 720, 723, 725, 761, 763, 766, 795, 796, and 799 This document contains minor amendments to regulations under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide (FIFRA), and Rodenticide Act, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These amendments will make EPA's regulations more accurate and user friendly with regard to the name of the EPA office that administers these statutes and various Agency addresses.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17897 RIN 2070-AB27 EPA-HQ-OPPT-2011-0577 FRL-9356-1 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This final rule is effective on July 25, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is removing significant new use rules (SNURs) promulgated under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for five chemical substances which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). EPA published these SNURs using direct final rulemaking procedures. EPA received notice of intent to submit adverse comments on the rules. Therefore, the Agency is removing these SNURs, as required under the expedited SNUR rulemaking process. EPA intends to publish in the near future proposed SNURs for these five chemical substances under separate notice and comment procedures.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17895 RIN 2070-AB27 EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-1075 FRL-9354-2 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This final rule is effective August 22, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is finalizing significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for the chemical substances rutile, tin zinc, calcium-doped (CAS No. 389623-01-2) and rutile, tin zinc, sodium-doped (CAS No. 389623-07-8) which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs P-06-36 and P-06-37) and a TSCA consent order issued by EPA. This action requires persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process either of the chemical substances for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this final rule to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. EPA believes that this action is necessary because new uses of the chemical substances may be hazardous to human health. The required notification would provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit the activity before it occurs.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17276 RIN 2070-AB27 EPA-HQ-OPPT-2011-0633 FRL-9349-4 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This final rule is effective August 15, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is finalizing a significant new use rule (SNUR) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for the chemical substance identified as phenol, 2,4-dimethyl-6-(1-methylpentadecyl)- (PMN P-94-209; CAS No. 134701-20-5). This action requires persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process the substance for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this final rule to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. The required notification would provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit that activity before it occurs.

The stay of the definition of “flare” in 40 CFR 60.101a, paragraph (g) of 40 CFR 60.102a, and paragraphs (d) and (e) of 40 CFR 60.107a is lifted and this final rule is effective on November 13, 2012. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the final rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of November 13, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 60 On June 24, 2008, the EPA promulgated amendments to the Standards of Performance for Petroleum Refineries and new standards of performance for petroleum refinery process units constructed, reconstructed or modified after May 14, 2007. The EPA subsequently received three petitions for reconsideration of these final rules. On September 26, 2008, the EPA granted reconsideration and issued a stay for the issues raised in the petitions regarding process heaters and flares. On December 22, 2008, the EPA addressed those specific issues by proposing amendments to certain provisions for process heaters and flares and extending the stay of these provisions until further notice. The EPA also proposed technical corrections to the rules for issues that were raised in the petitions for reconsideration. In this action, the EPA is finalizing those amendments and technical corrections and is lifting the stay of all the provisions granted on September 26, 2008 and extended until further notice on December 22, 2008.

This rule is effective on October 15, 2012. For purposes of judicial review, this rule shall be promulgated at 1 p.m. (e.s.t.) on August 29, 2012. Written adverse or critical comments, or notice of intent to submit adverse or critical comments, on one or more of these SNURs must be received on or before September 14, 2012 (see Unit VI. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION ). For additional information on related reporting requirement dates, see Units I.A., VI., and VII. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION . 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is promulgating significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for 25 chemical substances which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). Fourteen of these chemical substances are subject to TSCA section 5(e) consent orders issued by EPA. This action requires persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process any of these 25 chemical substances for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this rule to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. The required notification will provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit that activity before it occurs.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-18793 RIN EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-0629 FRL-8846-7 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This rule is effective August 3, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 1, 9, 150, 164, 178, 179, 700, 712, 716, 720, 723, 725, 761, 763, 766, 795, 796, and 799 This document contains minor amendments to regulations under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide (FIFRA), and Rodenticide Act, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These amendments will make EPA's regulations more accurate and user friendly with regard to the name of the EPA office that administers these statutes and various Agency addresses.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17897 RIN 2070-AB27 EPA-HQ-OPPT-2011-0577 FRL-9356-1 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This final rule is effective on July 25, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is removing significant new use rules (SNURs) promulgated under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for five chemical substances which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). EPA published these SNURs using direct final rulemaking procedures. EPA received notice of intent to submit adverse comments on the rules. Therefore, the Agency is removing these SNURs, as required under the expedited SNUR rulemaking process. EPA intends to publish in the near future proposed SNURs for these five chemical substances under separate notice and comment procedures.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17895 RIN 2070-AB27 EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-1075 FRL-9354-2 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Final rule. This final rule is effective August 22, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is finalizing significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for the chemical substances rutile, tin zinc, calcium-doped (CAS No. 389623-01-2) and rutile, tin zinc, sodium-doped (CAS No. 389623-07-8) which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs P-06-36 and P-06-37) and a TSCA consent order issued by EPA. This action requires persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process either of the chemical substances for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this final rule to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. EPA believes that this action is necessary because new uses of the chemical substances may be hazardous to human health. The required notification would provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit the activity before it occurs.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2012-17772 RIN 2040-AF22 EPA-HQ-OW-2011-0188 FRL-9693-5 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY Proposed rule; Withdrawal. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 122 On October 21, 2011, the EPA proposed a rulemaking to improve and restore water quality by collecting certain information about concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). The EPA also solicited comments on improving water quality by promoting environmental stewardship and compliance rather than collecting facility-specific information. The EPA is withdrawing the proposal to collect CAFO information by rule. Instead, the EPA, where appropriate, will collect CAFO information using existing sources of information, including state NPDES programs, other regulations, and other programs at the federal, state, and local level. The EPA believes, at this time, it is more appropriate to obtain CAFO information by working with federal, state, and local partners instead of requiring CAFO information to be submitted pursuant to a rule. Today's withdrawal does not preclude the Agency from initiating the same or similar rulemaking at a future date.

This final rule is effective August 15, 2012. 40 CFR Parts 9 and 721 EPA is finalizing a significant new use rule (SNUR) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for the chemical substance identified as phenol, 2,4-dimethyl-6-(1-methylpentadecyl)- (PMN P-94-209; CAS No. 134701-20-5). This action requires persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process the substance for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this final rule to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. The required notification would provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit that activity before it occurs.
