Trichoderma asperellum strain ICC 012; Exemption from the
Requirement of a Tolerance

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance for residues of the Trichoderma asperellum strain ICC

with good agricultural practices. Isagro, S.p.A. 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 Trichoderma asperellum strain ICC 012.

DATES: This regulation is effective March 3, 2010. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before May 3, 2010, and
must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR
part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9121-1]

Official Release of the MOVES2010 Motor Vehicle Emissions Model
for Emissions Inventories in SIPs and Transportation Conformity

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is approving and announcing the availability of the Motor
Vehicle Emissions Simulator model (MOVES2010) for official use outside
of California. MOVES2010 is the state-of-the-art upgrade to EPA's
modeling tools for estimating emissions from cars, trucks, motorcycles,
and buses, based on analysis of millions of emission test results and
considerable advances in the Agency's understanding of vehicle
emissions.
    Today's notice approves the use of MOVES2010 in official State
implementation air quality plan (SIP) submissions to EPA and for
certain transportation conformity analyses outside of California. This
notice starts a two-year grace period before the MOVES2010 emission
model is required to be used in new regional emissions analyses for
transportation conformity determinations outside of California. EPA is
not approving MOVES2010 for project-level transportation conformity
hot-spot analyses at this time; the Agency will approve the model for
such analyses in the near future in a separate Federal Register notice
when guidance is finalized.
    EPA strongly encourages areas to use the interagency consultation
process to examine how MOVES2010 will affect future transportation plan
and transportation improvement program (TIP) conformity determinations
so, if necessary, SIPs and motor vehicle emissions budgets can be
revised with MOVES2010 or transportation plans and TIPs can be revised
as appropriate prior to the end of the MOVES2010 conformity grace
period. EPA also encourages State and local air agencies to consider
how the release of MOVES2010 will affect analyses supporting SIP
submissions under development.

DATES: EPA's approval of the MOVES2010 emissions model for SIPs and
regional emissions analyses for transportation conformity is effective
March 2, 2010. As discussed further below, today's approval also starts
a two-year transportation conformity grace period which ends on March
2, 2012, after which MOVES2010 is required to be used for new regional
emissions analyses for transportation conformity.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical model questions
regarding the official release or use of MOVES2010, please e-mail EPA
at mobile@epa.gov or call (734) 214-4636. For questions about SIPs,
contact Rudy Kapichak at Kapichak.Rudolph@epa.gov or (734) 214-4574.
For transportation conformity questions, contact Meg Patulski at
Patulski.Meg@epa.gov or (734) 214-4842.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Clean Air Act

    Under 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby given that on February 22,
2010, a proposed Consent Decree in United States v. Cummins, Inc., case
number 1:10-cv-00275, was lodged with the United States District Court
for the District of Columbia.
    The Decree resolves the claims of the United States against
Cummins, Inc. (``Cummins'') for violations of Title II of the Clean Air
Act, 42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq. (the ``Act''). The United States alleged
that Cummins sold, offered for sale, or introduced or delivered for
introduction into commerce new motor vehicle engines not covered by
certificates of conformity, because the engines as actually sold,
offered for sale, or introduced or delivered for introduction into
commerce are materially different from the engines described in
Cummins' applications for certificates of conformity, in that the
engines were not equipped with the required emission control system or
aftertreatment device. Under the proposed Decree, Cummins shall: Pay a
penalty of $2.1 million, of which $1,680,000 shall be paid to the
United States and the remainder to the State of California under a
parallel administrative agreement; institute a voluntary recall of the
affected engines; retire 167.1 tons of NOX and 30.5 tons of
PM, the entire amount of excess pollution attributable to the
violation; and dismiss with prejudice a pending Petition for Review in
the DC Circuit.
    The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty (30)
days from the date of this publication comments relating to the Decree.
Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General,
Environment and Natural Resources Division, and either e-mailed to
pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov or mailed to P.O. Box 7611, U.S.
Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20044-7611, and should refer to
the Consent Decree between the United States and Cummins, DOJ Ref. No.
90-5-2-1-09351.
