addition, this action includes EPA's proposed amendment to Special
rules governing certain information obtained under the Clean Air Act.
The proposed amendment would authorize EPA to release or withhold as
confidential reporting elements in the Mandatory Greenhouse Gas
Reporting Rule according to the determinations made in a final action
without taking certain additional procedural steps currently required.
This action also solicits comments on several key issues related to the
proposed confidentiality determinations and amendment.

ANNOUNCEMENT 3
Subject: TOXICS - PR. EPA. Declaration of Prion as a Pest under FIFRA and Amendment of EPA's Regulatory Definition of Pests to Include Prion; Notification to the Secretaries of Agriculture and Health and Human Services

Declaration of Prion as a Pest under FIFRA and Amendment of EPA's
Regulatory Definition of Pests to Include Prion; Notification to the
Secretaries of Agriculture and Health and Human Services
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notification to the Secretaries of Agriculture and Health and
Human Services.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document notifies the public that the Administrator of
EPA has forwarded to the Secretaries of Agriculture and Health and
Human Services a draft proposed rule under sections 21 and 25(a) of the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). The draft
rule proposes to declare a prion (i.e., proteinaceous infectious
particle) a ``pest'' under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), so a product intended to reduce the
infectivity of any prion on inanimate surfaces (i.e., a ``prion
product'') is considered to be a pesticide and regulated as such. Any
company seeking to distribute or sell a pesticide product regulated
under FIFRA must obtain EPA approval before it can be distributed or
sold in the United States. This draft proposed rule would codify the
Agency's current interpretation of FIFRA, and provides interested
parties the opportunity to comment about how it is adding prion to the
list of pests in EPA's regulations. This amendment, together with the
formal declaration that a prion is a pest, will eliminate any confusion
about the status of prion products under FIFRA. Regulating prion
products under FIFRA is appropriate for protecting human health and the
environment against unreasonable adverse effects and ensuring that such
products are effective.
ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under docket
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0427. All documents in the
docket are listed in the docket index available in http://
www.regulations.gov. Although listed in the index, some information is
not publicly available, e.g., Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain
other material, such as copyrighted material, is not placed on the
Internet and will be publicly available only in hard copy form.
Publicly available docket materials are available in the electronic
docket at http://www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in hard
