(NEPA)Pre-Filing Process and assigned Docket No. PF04-9-000 to staff activities involving Ingleside. The San Patricio Pipeline was also assessed in the NEPA pre-file process in Docket No. PF04-9-000. Now, as of the filing of Ingleside's and San Patricio Pipeline's applications on October 25, 2004, the NEPA Pre-Filing Process for those projects has ended. From this time forward, Ingleside's and San Patricio Pipeline's proceeding will be conducted in Docket Nos. CP05-13-000, *et. al* , as noted in the caption of this Notice. There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or before the comment date listed below, file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit 14 copies of this filing and all subsequent filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy of all filing to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders in the proceeding. However, other persons do not have to intervene in order to have comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. The Commission will consider these comments in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to this project provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly involved in the protest. Persons may also wish to comment further only on the environmental review of this project. Environmental commenters will be placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive copies of environmental documents issued by the Commission, and will be notified of meetings associated with the Commission's environmental review process. Those persons, organizations, and agencies who submitted comments during the NEPA Pre-Filing Process in Docket No. PF04-9-000 are already on the Commission staff's environmental mailing list for the proceeding in the above dockets and may file additional comments on or before the below listed comment date. Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, environmental commenters are also not parties to the proceeding and will not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or non-environmental documents issued by the Commission. Further, they will not have the right to seek court review of any final order by Commission in this proceeding. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, protests, and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site ( *http://www.ferc.gov* ) under the “e-Filing” link. *Comment Date:* November 23, 2004. Magalie R. Salas, Secretary.

In accordance with EPA policy and the OMB circulars, as appropriate, any recipient of funding must agree not to use assistance funds for lobbying, fund-raising, or political activities (e.g., lobbying members of Congress or lobbying for other Federal grants, cooperative agreements, or contracts). See 40 CFR part 34. B. Program Description 1. *Purpose and scope* . The cooperative agreement awarded under this program is intended to provide financial assistance to support a continuing project to work with a wide spectrum of agricultural stakeholders and pesticide safety education and training experts to continue research, assessment and development of improved pesticide safety programs for agricultural workers, pesticide handlers and health providers to reduce exposures to the hazards of pesticides. Under this new cooperative agreement, experience and expertise in bringing together a broad external network of key agricultural experts and interests is critical to developing more effective pesticide safety programs on local, state, national and international levels. Working with a wide spectrum of environmental and agricultural representatives will also help address the General Accounting Office reports urging EPA to improve its outreach and involvement with stakeholder organizations. Experience and expertise in working with state agencies, farmworker, grower, commodity and health organizations, the Cooperative Extension Service, the agricultural chemical industry, and other members of the agricultural community to assess key components in the area of worker and handler training, hazardous communication, and health is critical to the success of this project. The cooperative agreement will also work with the stakeholders and experts in creating effective model pesticide safety programs and materials for farmworkers, their families, pesticide handlers, and health care providers. Activities to be funded: In working with a wide spectrum of agricultural experts and stakeholders, the cooperative agreement will fund the continued development of improved national and international pesticide safety training and education programs to reduce exposure to the hazards of pesticides. Key activities to be funded under this cooperative agreement are: a. Assessment and development of model state and national training programs and materials on agricultural worker safety, working with growers, farmworker organizations, and state agencies, that would serve as a national model for states across the country. b. Work with experts on pesticide applicator safety to develop model pesticide safety and training programs, materials and core examinations for mixers, loaders, and applicators of agricultural pesticides. c. Work with Canadian and Mexican environmental and agricultural agencies and organizations, pesticide producers, and other members of the international agricultural pesticide safety community to analyze existing safety training and educational programs for pesticide handlers and agricultural workers and develop standard models that would provide improved training across borders. d. Work cooperatively with a broad range of agricultural interests at the state, national, and international level to assess hazard communications programs and develop a model program which would provide additional information on specific pesticide hazards. e. Working with key members of the health care provider network of medical providers, including experts and representatives from migrant and rural health care clinics, hospitals, medical colleges and universities, state and national medical educators, and others to transform recommendations for prevention and improved identification and treatment of pesticide illnesses into model education and training programs and materials. f. Based on recommendations from new analysis of worker and applicator safety training programs, hazardous communication efforts, health provider needs, grower and commodity interests, and state and local programs, develop additional pesticide safety materials and projects to reduce risks from pesticide hazards. This program will further Agency efforts under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), (7 U.S.C. 136w) to reduce the risk of pesticide poisonings and injuries among agricultural workers, handlers of agricultural pesticides, and the public by providing essential training about the potential hazards associated with pesticide chemicals and how to reduce those risks. 2. *Goal and objectives* . Through the cooperative agreement sought under this solicitation for the Pesticide Safety Program for Agricultural Workers, Pesticide Handlers and Health Providers, EPA intends to work with an organization that has experience and expertise in bringing together diverse members of the agricultural pesticide safety community to develop and improve pesticide safety programs for protecting farmworkers and pesticide applicators from the hazards of pesticides, and to support the Health Care Provider's Initiative. The objective of this program is to bring together experts and representatives from a wide spectrum of the agricultural community on local, state, national, and international levels through conferences, meetings, and continuing workgroups to develop model pesticide safety programs and materials for farmworkers, pesticide handlers, and health professionals to reduce risks from exposure to the hazards of pesticides. Meeting and coordinating with pesticide safety education and training leaders and agricultural stakeholders will help to develop effective programs and materials through identifying technical experts, providing review and oversight of materials and pilot programs as they are developed and pilot tested. 3. *History* . In August of 1992, EPA's Worker Protection Standard
(WPS)(40 CFR part 170) was published to require actions to reduce the risk of pesticide poisonings and injuries among agricultural workers and pesticide handlers. The WPS offers protections to more than 3 ½ million agricultural workers who work with pesticides at more than 560,000 workplaces on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses. The WPS contains requirements for pesticide safety training, notification of pesticide applications, use of personal protective equipment, restricted entry intervals following pesticide application, decontamination supplies, and emergency medical assistance. Also, in August of 1992, EPA proposed a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to develop requirements for communicating hazard information about pesticides to workers. EPA has never published that final rule. A national assessment to evaluate the WPS is complete and the results have contributed to developing pilot programs aimed at reducing some of the obstacles to effective pesticide safety training, education, and hazard communications. In addition to the WPS, EPA's Certification of Pesticide Applicators (40 CFR part 171) has been in effect since 1974. EPA's Pesticide Applicator Certification and Training Program provides pesticide applicators with the knowledge and ability to use pesticides safely and effectively. Pesticide applicators are trained by state Cooperative Extension Service pesticide applicator training programs and are certified by pesticide State Lead Agencies. EPA regulations require that applicators be certified as competent to apply restricted use pesticides in accordance with national standards. Certification programs are conducted by states, territories, and tribes in accordance with these national standards. Training of certified applicators covers safe pesticides use as well as environmental issues such as endangered species and water quality protection. More than one million applicators are currently certified nationwide, including more than 900,000 private applicators and about 350,000 commercial applicators. Recommendations from meetings and ongoing workgroups of national and international pesticide safety education and training experts have resulted in recommendations to improve the education and training programs. Programs are underway to continue the development of improved and model programs and materials for pesticide handlers and their trainers, including certified applicators. In addition to assessments of the Worker Protection and Certification and Training Programs, a new initiative created by the EPA and the National Environmental Education & Training Foundation (NEETF) in collaboration with other Federal agencies and professional associations of health care providers was launched in 1999. The Health Care Providers Initiative is aimed at incorporating pesticide information into the education and practice of health care providers. The goal is to improve the recognition, diagnosis, management, and prevention of adverse health effects from pesticide exposures in agricultural areas. In 2001, OPP funded a cooperative agreement with the Agricultural Research Institute now the Council for Agricultural Science and Technology in response to a growing concern among members of the agricultural community that there was a need to research, assess, and develop improved programs and materials for farmworkers, pesticide handlers, and health care providers, both nationally and internationally. A key component to the success of the program was bringing together a wide spectrum of agricultural stakeholders and pesticide safety educators and training experts to ensure that the programs were workable for all aspects of the affected agricultural community. To continue a comprehensive national and international pesticide safety project to research, analyze, and develop improved pesticides safety programs and information for agricultural workers, pesticide handlers, and health providers, EPA is soliciting applications from non-profit organizations, institutions, or agencies with expertise in bringing together a wide spectrum of agricultural technical and scientific experts in pesticide safety education and training of farmworkers, pesticide handlers, and rural health care providers. Applicants should be non-profit organizations, institutions or agencies with abilities in agricultural pesticide safety education and training programs, have experience and expertise in bringing together diverse agricultural stakeholders, and have background in agricultural pesticide safety education, science, research, and technology. This document outlines the application requirements and procedures for the Pesticide Safety Program for Agricultural Workers, Pesticide Handlers and Health Providers. II. Award Information The funding for the selected award project is in the form of a cooperative agreement awarded under FIFRA section 20. The total funding available for award in FY 2005 represents funding set aside in FY 2004 and is expected to be approximately $600,000. At the conclusion of the first 1 year period of performance, incremental funding of up to $600,000 may be made available for each subsequent year, depending on need and the Agency budget in outlying years, which would allow the project to continue for a total of 5 periods of performance (approximately 5 years) and totaling up to $3,000,000 for the 5-year period. Should additional funding become available for award based on the Agency budget in those outlying years, the Agency may make available additional funds under the cooperative agreement granted based on the solicitation and in accordance with the final selection process, without further notice of competition during the first year after the competition award.
