Included are changes to the regulatory definitions of ``fuel manufacturer,'' ``additive,'' and ``small business,'' as well as modifications to grouping rules for biodiesel and synthetic fuels. These changes will streamline F/FA registration and testing burdens and reduce the number of respondents, while maintaining the informational value of the program and its contributions to the public health and environmental goals of the Clean Air Act. Another previously proposed change, to establish a de minimis provision for F/FAs containing certain ``atypical'' elements, is not addressed in this action. However, in a direct final rule also published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, certain deadlines related to testing of atypical F/FAs are extended while EPA determines the most appropriate disposition of the de minimis proposal.","document_number":"97-6023","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/03/17/97-6023/registration-of-fuels-and-fuel-additives-changes-in-requirements-and-applicability-to-blenders-of","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-03-17/pdf/97-6023.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"1997-03-17","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"excerpts":"the basic registration data of any member fuel or additive \nproduct.\n    (2) A separate non-baseline diesel group is also defined for each \nof the following classes of oxygenating compounds: mixed nitroso-\ncompounds; mixed nitro-compounds; mixed alkyl nitrates; mixed <span class=\"match\">alkyl \nnitrites</span>; peroxides; furans; mixed alkyl esters of plant and/or animal \norigin (biodiesel).

The registration requirements are organized within a three-tier structure. Tier 1 requires F/FA manufacturers to perform a literature search on the health and welfare effects of F/FA emissions, characterize the emissions, and provide qualitative exposure information. Tier 2 requires biological testing for the examination of subchronic systemic and organ toxicity, as well as the assessment of specific health effects endpoints. When necessary, Tier 3, which includes follow-up studies or other additional tests, may be required. The rule permits adequate existing test data to be submitted in lieu of conducting new duplicative tests. It also includes special provisions for small businesses and certain types of products, and a grouping system which permits manufacturers of similar F/FA products to share the costs of compliance.","document_number":"94-13784","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/06/27/94-13784/fuels-and-fuel-additives-registration-regulations-final-rule-environmental-protection-agency","pdf_url":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"1994-06-27","agencies":[],"excerpts":"and other formulations containing oxygenating compounds.
