Final Notice of Data Availability Concerning 2010 CAIR NOX Ozone
Season Trading Program New Unit Set-Aside Allowance Allocations Under
the Clean Air Interstate Rule Federal Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of data availability (NODA).

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

SUMMARY: EPA is administering--under the Clean Air Interstate Rule
(CAIR) Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs)--the CAIR NOX
Ozone Season Trading Program (CAIROS) new unit set-aside allowance
pools for Delaware and the District of Columbia. The CAIROS FIPs
require the Administrator to determine each year by order the allowance
allocations from the new unit set-aside for units in these
jurisdictions whose owners and operators requested these allocations
and to provide the public with the opportunity to object to the
allocation determinations. On April 27, 2010, EPA issued a NODA setting
forth such determinations in the Federal Register and provided an
opportunity for submission of objections. Through the NODA issued
today, EPA is making available to the public the Agency's
determinations, after considering all objections, of CAIROS allowance
allocations and denials of such allocations under the FIPs, as well as
the data upon which the allocations and denials of allocations were
based.

DATES: Under Sec.  97.353(e), EPA must record, by September 1, 2010,
the CAIROS new unit set-aside allowance allocations, consistent with
this NODA, in the compliance accounts of units whose owners and
operators successfully applied for a CAIROS new unit set-aside
allowance allocation under the CAIR FIPs.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Questions concerning this action
should be addressed to Robert L. Miller, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, CAMD (6204J), 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC

[Federal Register: June 28, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 123)]
[Notices]              
[Page 36671-36672]

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

National Park Service

Notice of Inventory Completion: Western Michigan University,
Anthropology Department, Kalamazoo, MI

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    Notice is here given in accordance with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the
completion of an inventory of human remains and associated funerary
objects in the possession of Western Michigan University, Anthropology
Department, Kalamazoo, MI. The human remains and associated funerary
objects were removed from Kent County, MI.
    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's
administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The
determinations in this notice are the sole responsibility of the
museum, institution, or Federal agency that has control of the Native
American human remains and associated funerary objects. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the determinations in this notice.

    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by Western
Michigan University professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan,
and the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Michigan.
    In 1984, human remains representing a minimum of two individuals
were removed from the Front and Leonard Street intersection, Kent
County, MI, during the excavation of a building foundation. George
Davis, then president of the Wright L. Coffinberry Chapter of the
Michigan Archaeological Society, recovered as much of the material as
possible after they had tumbled from the shovel of the tractor during
the construction. It is not clear how or why they were transferred to
Western Michigan University. No known individuals were identified. The
five associated funerary objects are three turtle shell fragments, a
badly rusted nail, and a kaolin pipe stem fragment.
    The human remains were determined to be of Native American ancestry
based on skeletal and dental morphology. The determination of an early
19th century date is based on typology of the kaolin pipe and the close
proximity of these remains to a known 19th century Ottawa settlement,
Noondays Village (20KT114). Consequently, the preponderance of
osteological, historical, and consultation evidence connects the
remains found at Front Avenue and Leonard Street to the Little River
Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan.
    In 1990, human remains representing a minimum of six individuals
were removed from Riverside Drive, Lowell, Kent County, MI. The remains
were uncovered during installation of a fire hydrant and water main.
Upon discovery, Dr. Robert Sundick was called to the site to conduct an
excavation of the remains. After completion, the remains were sent with
Sundick to Western Michigan University for curation and analysis. The
68 associated funerary objects are 1 leather garment fragment decorated
with small round cuprous brooches, 1 decorative cuprous item (possible
ear wheel fragment), 3 cuprous Saturn-shaped bells, 8 wrought iron
nails with remnants of wood which may be remains of a coffin, 53 glass
beads (representing 27 black glass tubular beads and 26 purple glass
seed beads), 1 small bag of very fragmented faunal remains, and 1
pottery sherd.
    The human remains were determined to be of Native American ancestry
based on skeletal and dental morphology. They were dated to the early
19th century based on analysis of the garment fragment, the presence of
glass trade beads, and typology of the other associated funerary
objects.
    The Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan, are well-
documented as occupying the Grand River Valley since at least the 17th
century. All of the human remains and associated funerary objects
described above from the Kent County sites are, by a preponderance of
the evidence, culturally affiliated with the Little River Band of
Ottawa Indians, Michigan, whose ancestors include the Grand River
Ottawa Bands.
    Officials of Western Michigan University have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described above
represent the physical remains of eight individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of Western Michigan University also have determined
that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 73 objects described above
are reasonably believed to have been placed with or near individual
human remains at the time of death or later as part of the death rite
or ceremony. Lastly, officials of Western Michigan University have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there is a relationship
of shared group identity that can be reasonably traced between the
Native American human remains and associated funerary objects and the
Little River Bands of Ottawa Indians, Michigan.
    Representatives of any other Indian tribe that believes itself to
be culturally affiliated with the human remains and associated funerary
objects should contact LouAnn Wurst, Department of Anthropology,
Western Michigan University, 1005 Moore Hall, Kalamazoo, MI 49008,
telephone (269) 387-2753, before July 28, 2010. Repatriation of the
human remains and associated funerary objects to the Little River Band
of Ottawa Indians, Michigan, may proceed after that date if no
additional claimants come forward.
    Western Michigan University is responsible for notifying the Little
River Band of Ottawa Indians, Michigan, and the Little Traverse Bay
Bands of Odawa Indians, Michigan, that this notice has been published.

Subject: TRANSPORT - NF. HUD, DOT. Notice of Funding Availability for the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Community Challenge Planning Grants and the Department of Transportation's TIGER II Planning Grants
 
[Federal Register: June 24, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 121)]

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

[Docket No. FR-5415-N-12]

Notice of Funding Availability for the Department of Housing and
Urban Development's Community Challenge Planning Grants and the
Department of Transportation's TIGER II Planning Grants

AGENCY: Office of Sustainable Housing and Communities, Office of the
Deputy Secretary, HUD; and Office of the Secretary, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA).

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability of funding and requests
proposals for the Department of Housing and Urban Development's
(``HUD's'') Community Challenge Planning Grants (``Community Challenge
Planning Grants'') in conjunction with a portion of the Department of
Transportation's (``DOT's'') National Infrastructure Investments Grants
that can be used for transportation planning grants.
    On December 16, 2009, the President signed the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-117) that provided $40 million
for HUD's Community Challenge Planning Grants and up to $35 million for
DOT's transportation planning grants to be awarded as part of the
National Infrastructure Investments program. The National
Infrastructure Investments program is similar, but not identical to,
the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery, or ``TIGER
Discretionary Grant Program.'' Because of the similarity in program
structure, DOT is referring to the grants for National Infrastructure
Investments under the FY 2010 Appropriations Act as ``TIGER II
Discretionary Grants'' and the transportation planning grants as
``TIGER II Planning Grants.''
    HUD's $40 million Community Challenge Planning Grant Program will
foster reform and reduce barriers to achieving affordable, economically
vital, and sustainable communities. Such efforts may include amending
or replacing local master plans, zoning codes, and building codes,
either on a jurisdiction-wide basis or in a specific neighborhood,
district, corridor, or sector to promote mixed-use development,
affordable housing, the reuse of older buildings and structures for new
purposes, and similar activities with the goal of promoting
sustainability at the local or neighborhood level. HUD's Community
Challenge Planning Grant Program also supports the development of
affordable housing through the development and adoption of inclusionary
zoning ordinances and other activities such as acquisition of land for
affordable housing projects.
    The Community Challenge Planning Grant Program differs from HUD's
Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program, a $100 million
program also created in the FY2010 Appropriations Act. While the latter
program is designed to support regional planning efforts, the Community
Challenge Planning Grant Program focuses on individual jurisdictions
and more localized planning. HUD will publish a separate NOFA for the
Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program.
    DOT is authorized to use up to $35 million of the funds available
for TIGER II Discretionary Grants for TIGER II Planning Grants to fund
the planning, preparation, or design of surface transportation projects
that would be eligible for funding under the TIGER II Discretionary
Grant program.
    DOT and HUD have decided to issue this NOFA jointly in order to
better align transportation, housing, economic development, and land
use planning and to improve linkages between DOT and HUD's programs.
HUD's funding is designed to target housing, economic development, and
land use planning strategies that will increase the efficiency and
effectiveness of a related transportation project being planned.
Therefore, DOT and HUD believe this joint effort has the potential to
encourage and reward more holistic planning efforts that result in
better projects being built with Federal dollars. The effort is also
consistent with the Obama Administration's priority on removing
artificial barriers between Federal programs and barriers to State and
local governmental level innovation.
    On April 26, 2010 (75 FR 21695), DOT published an interim notice
announcing the availability of funding for TIGER II Discretionary
Grants. Because the TIGER II Discretionary Grant program is a new
program, the interim notice requested comments on the proposed
selection criteria and guidance for awarding TIGER II Discretionary
Grants. In the interim notice, DOT specifically requested comments on
its intention to conduct a multi-agency evaluation and award process
with HUD for the Community Challenge Planning Grants and the TIGER II
Planning Grants. DOT indicated that this multi-agency approach for the
planning grants would be consistent with DOT and HUD's participation in
the ``Partnership for Sustainable Communities'' with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA'') to help American families in
all communities--rural, suburban and urban--gain better access to
affordable housing, more transportation options, lower transportation
costs, and a cleaner environment. HUD and DOT have considered the
comments that were submitted in accordance with the interim notice and
decided to conduct a multi-agency evaluation and award process. The
details of this multi-agency planning grant program, including
information about eligibility, selection criteria, and pre-application
and application requirements are included in this joint notice. The
final notice for the TIGER II Discretionary Grant program (the ``TIGER
II Discretionary Grant NOFA'') was published on June 1, 2010 (75 FR
30460). Interested parties are encouraged to review the TIGER II
Discretionary Grant NOFA for more information about that program.

DATES: Pre-applications are due by July 26, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT, and
applications must be submitted by August 23, 2010, at 5 p.m. EDT. Only
pre-applications received and applications received through Grants.gov
will be deemed properly filed. Instructions for submitting pre-

ANNOUNCEMENT 5


Subject: HAZ/Nuclear, P2 - PR. NRC. Requirements for Distribution of Byproduct Material
 
[Federal Register: June 24, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 121)]
[Proposed Rules]              
[Page 36211-36236]

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

10 CFR Parts 30, 31, 32, 40, and 70

RIN 3150-AH91
[NRC-2008-0338]

Requirements for Distribution of Byproduct Material

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend
its regulations to make requirements for distributors of byproduct
material clearer, less prescriptive, and more risk-informed and up to
date. The Commission is also proposing to redefine categories of
devices to be used under exemptions, add explicit provisions regarding
the sealed source and device registration process, and add flexibility
to the licensing of users of sealed sources and devices. This action is
primarily intended to make licensing processes more efficient and
effective. These changes would affect manufacturers and distributors of
sources and devices containing byproduct material and future users of
some products currently used under a general or specific license.

DATES: The comment period expires September 7, 2010. Submit comments
specific to the information collections aspects of this rule by July
26, 2010. Comments received after these dates will be considered if it
is practical to do so, but the NRC is able to assure consideration only
for comments received on or before these dates.

ADDRESSES: Please include Docket ID NRC-2008-0338 in the subject line
of your comments. For instructions on submitting comments and accessing

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES): Use of
Sufficiently Sensitive Test Methods for Permit Applications and
Reporting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing minor
amendments to its Clean Water Act (CWA) regulations to codify that
under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
program, only ``sufficiently sensitive'' analytical test methods can be
used when completing an NPDES permit application and when performing
sampling and analysis pursuant to monitoring requirements in an NPDES
permit.
    This proposal is based on requirements in the CWA and existing EPA
regulations. It also would codify existing EPA guidance on the use of
``sufficiently sensitive'' analytical methods with respect to
measurement of mercury and extend the approach outlined in that
guidance to the NPDES program more generally. Specifically, EPA is
proposing to clarify the existing NPDES application, compliance
monitoring, and analytical methods regulations. The amendments in this
proposed rulemaking affect only chemical-specific methods; they do not
apply to the Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) methods or their use.

DATES: Comments on this action must be received or postmarked on or
before midnight August 9, 2010.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by EPA-HQ-OW-2009-1019,

[FRL-9166-1]

Notice of Availability of Class Deviation; Disputes Resolution
Procedures Related to Enforcement Actions Associated With Leaking
Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Cooperative Agreements Distributing
Funds Under the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (ARRA)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability.

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

SUMMARY: This document provides notice of availability of a Class
Deviation from EPA's assistance agreement dispute procedures and also
sets forth the procedures that will apply to the resolution of disputes
that may arise in connection with certain enforcement actions taken by
EPA on State cooperative agreements awarded under section 9003(h) of
the Solid Waste Disposal Act with LUST funds appropriated by the ARRA.
Enforcement actions affected by this alternative dispute resolution
procedure are those actions, including suspension of performance and
potential partial or complete cooperative agreement termination,
associated with the obligation and expenditure of funds under the
following term and condition: ``The recipient shall obligate funds for
contracts, subgrants or similar transactions for at least 35 percent of
funds, and expend at least 15 percent of funds within nine months of
this award. EPA will consider the recipient's failure to comply with
this requirement as a material failure to perform, which may warrant
appropriate enforcement action under 40 CFR 31.43'' (hereafter referred
to as the 35/15 term and condition).
    Currently, with respect to States and local governments, assistance
agreement disputes and disagreements are resolved in accordance with
EPA assistance agreement disputes procedures at 40 CFR 31.70. EPA has
determined, however, through a Class Deviation, that these procedures
are not practicable to use for LUST disputes and that it is appropriate
to replace those procedures with the procedures contained in this
document. EPA's preferred course of action would be for the Agency and
the State to resolve issues associated with the 35/15 term and
condition by mutual consent and should the need arise to partially or
completely terminate the cooperative agreement by mutual agreement. If
appropriate, EPA will take additional enforcement actions due to the
State's noncompliance with the 35/15 term and condition.

DATES: These procedures are effective as of June 23, 2010.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9167-1; Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-ORD-2010-0395]

Draft EPA's Reanalysis of Key Issues Related to Dioxin Toxicity
and Response to NAS Comments

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Extension of public comment period.

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

SUMMARY: On May 21, 2010, EPA released the draft report entitled,
``EPA's Reanalysis of Key Issues Related to Dioxin Toxicity and
Response to NAS Comments'' (EPA/600/R-10/038A) for independent external
review, and public review and comment (75 FR 28610). Written comments
on the draft report were to be submitted to EPA by August 19, 2010 (a
90-day public comment period). Since release, the Agency has received
several requests for additional time to submit comments. In response to
these requests, the EPA is extending the public comment period another
30 days until September 20, 2010 (a 120-day public comment period).
    This draft report responds to the key recommendations and comments
included in the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) 2006 report. In
addition, it includes new analyses on potential human effects that may
result from exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD).
These analyses have not been in previous versions of draft reports
related to EPA's dioxin reassessment activity. This draft report is now
considered to be under EPA's Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS)
program, and thus, the new IRIS process announced in May 2009 (http: //
www.epa.gov/iris/process/) is being followed. Per the May 2009 process,
this draft report is beginning Step 4--independent external peer review
and public review and comment. This draft dioxin report was prepared by
the National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) within the EPA
Office of Research and Development (ORD).
    The draft document, ``EPA's Reanalysis of Key Issues Related to
Dioxin Toxicity and Response to NAS Comments,'' was also being provided
to EPA's Science Advisory Board (SAB), a body established under the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, for independent external peer review.
The SAB will convene an expert panel composed of scientists
knowledgeable about technical issues related to dioxins and risk
assessment. The SAB is holding a public teleconference on June 24,
2010, and a public panel meeting on July 13-15, 2010. The SAB peer
review meetings were announced by the SAB staff office in a separate
May 24, 2010, Federal Register Notice (75 FR 28805). EPA intends to
forward all public comments submitted before July 7, 2010, in response
to this notice to the SAB peer review panel for their consideration.
Members of the public who wish to ensure that their technical comments
are provided to the SAB expert panel before each meeting should also e-
mail their comments separately to Thomas Armitage, the SAB Designated
Federal Officer at armitage.thomas@epa.gov, following the procedures in
the Federal Register Notice announcing the SAB public meetings. When
completing this draft dioxin report, EPA will consider any written
public comments that EPA receives in accordance with the detailed
instructions provided under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION in Federal
Register notice (75 FR 28610). The public comment period and SAB
external peer review are independent processes that provide separate
opportunities for all interested parties to comment on the draft
report.
    EPA is releasing this draft report solely for the purpose of pre-
dissemination peer review under applicable information quality
guidelines. This draft report has not been formally disseminated by
EPA. It does not represent and should not be construed to represent any
Agency policy or determination.

DATES: The public comment period began on May 21, 2010, and ends on
September 20, 2010. Comments should be in writing and must be received
by EPA by September 20, 2010.
    Due to the timing of the SAB's peer review meeting, EPA can only
guarantee that those comments received by July 7, 2010, in response to
this Federal Register notice will be provided to the SAB panel prior to
the SAB meeting. Comments received after July 7, 2010, will still be
provided to the SAB panel and will also inform the Agency's revision of
the draft report.

ADDRESSES: The external review draft titled, ``EPA's Reanalysis of Key
Issues Related to Dioxin Toxicity and Response to NAS Comments'' (EPA/600/R-10/038A) is available primarily via the Internet on the NCEA home page under the Recent Additions and Publications menus at http://www.epa.gov/ncea.
