• Compare predicted routes of dissipation identified in the laboratory with those measured in the field; • Characterize the rates of dissipation of the parent compound and formation and decline of the major and/or toxicologically significant transformation products under field conditions; • Characterize the rates and relative importance of the different transport processes, including leaching, runoff, and volatilization; • Establish the distribution of the parent compound and the major transformation products in the soil profile; • Characterize the persistence of the parent compound and major transformation products in soil, including retention and residue carryover in the soil to the following crop season; and • Characterize the effect(s) of different typical pesticide formulation categories, where applicable. EPA and PMRA have developed harmonized guidance for conducting terrestrial field dissipation studies so that one set of tests can be used for registration of a pesticide in Canada, the United States, and Mexico. In developing this guidance document, EPA and PMRA conducted an extensive outreach and review program, soliciting input from stakeholders and the technical community through several forums: Three symposia, one Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP) meeting, and one workshop. Working closely with its stakeholders, PMRA and EPA developed a conceptual model for designing terrestrial studies that will evaluate the overall dissipation of a pesticide in the field. The conceptual model, which is specific for each pesticide, is based on the chemical’s physicochemical properties, laboratory environmental fate studies, formulation type and intended use pattern. On June 15, 2005, the Agency published the draft harmonized guidance and conceptual model in the Federal Register and asked for comments. After reviewing all the comments, PMRA and EPA developed the final guidance, which can be found

AGENCY: SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability for public comment of thirty TMDLs, and their administrative record files prepared by EPA Region 6 for certain waters listed in the Upper Canadian River and Turkey Creek Watersheds of Oklahoma, under section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA). DATES: Comments must be submitted in writing to EPA on or before September 11, 2006. ADDRESSES: Comments on the thirty TMDLs should be sent to Diane Smith, Environmental Protection Specialist, Water Quality Protection Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 6, 1445 Ross Ave., Dallas, TX 75202–2733 or e-mail:

[email protected]. For further information, contact Diane Smith at (214) 665–2145 or fax 214–665–7373. The administrative record files for the thirty TMDLs are available for public inspection at this address as well. Documents from the administrative record files may be viewed at http:// www.epa.gov/region6/6wq/npdes/tmdl/ index.htm, or obtained by calling or writing Ms. Smith at the above address. Please contact Ms. Smith to schedule an inspection. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Diane Smith at (214) 665–2145. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 10, 2006, EPA Region 6 made a commitment to the EPA Headquarters Office of Water under EPA’s National Water Program Fiscal Year 2006 Guidance for the program activity measure (PAM) number WQ–12, to establish or approve a total of 188 TMDLs in fiscal year (FY) 2006. Under the PAM number WQ–12, EPA expected the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) to develop a total of 87 TMDLs in fiscal year (FY) 2006 and submit them for EPA’s approval. By the end of July 2006, ODEQ had submitted two final TMDLs for EPA’s approval and 30 draft TMDLs for EPA’s review and comments. EPA has approved the two final TMDLs submitted by ODEQ. However, a recent discussion between EPA Region 6 and ODEQ senior managers determined that although substantial progress has been made on the other TMDLs, the remainder of the TMDLs needed to meet the commitment could not be completed by the target date. Accordingly, EPA Region 6 has decided to conduct the public participation process for these thirty TMDLs and establish the final TMDLs on or before September 30, 2006, to meet the FY06 PAM commitment. EPA Seeks Comment on Thirty TMDLs By this notice EPA is seeking public comment on the following thirty TMDLs for certain waters located within Oklahoma’s Upper Canadian River and Turkey Creek Watersheds:
Pollutant Fecal coliform E. coli, Enterococci, and Fecal coliform Enterococci, and Fecal coliform E. coli, Enterococci, and Fecal coliform E. coli and Enterococci E. coli, Enterococci, and Fecal coliform E. coli, Enterococci, and Fecal coliform E. coli and Enterococci E. coli and Enterococci E. coli and Enterococci

EPA requests that the public provide to EPA any written comments on these thirty TMDLs and any additional water quality related data and information that may be relevant to their establishment. EPA will review all comments, data, and information submitted during the public comment period and will revise the TMDLs where appropriate. EPA will then establish the TMDLs and forward them to the ODEQ. The ODEQ will incorporate the TMDLs into its current water quality management plan.
