BILLING CODE 4910-13-M DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Highway Administration Surface Transportation Environment and Planning Cooperative Research Program
(STEP)AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT. ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: Section 5207 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) established the Surface Transportation Environment and Planning Cooperative Research Program (STEP). The general objective of the STEP is to improve understanding of the complex relationship between surface transportation, planning and the environment. SAFETEA-LU provides $16.875 million per year for fiscal years
(FY)2006-2009 to implement this new cooperative research program. STEP is the primary source of funds to conduct all Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA)research on planning and environmental issues. In addition, Congress mandated several special studies and STEP will be the funding source for those projects. STEP will also address priorities identified in the U.S. Department of Transportation Research and Development Strategic Plan (section 508 of title 23 U.S.C.) including those related to highway safety benefits and congestion reduction. The purpose of this notice is to announce revisions to the STEP implementation strategy for FY 2008 and to request suggested lines of research for the FY 2008 STEP via the STEP Web site at *http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/hep/step/index.htm.* DATES: Suggestions for lines of research should be submitted to the STEP Web site on or before August 24, 2007. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Felicia Young, Office of Interstate and Border Planning,

(202)366-6226; Federal Highway Administration, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590. Office hours are from 7:45 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., e.t., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Electronic Access An electronic copy of this notice may be downloaded from the Office of the Federal Register's home page at *http://www.archives.gov* and the Government Printing Office's Web site at *http://www.access.gpo.gov.* Background Section 5207 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (Pub. L. 109-59, Aug. 10. 2005), established the Surface Transportation Environment and Planning Cooperative Research Program. STEP is a new cooperative research program for environment and planning research created in section 507 of Title 23, United States Code, Highways (23 U.S.C. 507). The general objective of the STEP is to improve understanding of the complex relationship between surface transportation, planning, and the environment. Congestion reduction is an important element of the STEP. Transportation system congestion is one of the single largest threats to U.S. economic prosperity and the American way of life. In response to the challenges of congestion, in May 2006, the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT)established the National Strategy to Reduce Congestion on America's Transportation Network (the “Congestion Initiative”). The Congestion Initiative is a bold and comprehensive national program to reduce congestion on the Nation's roads, rails, runways and waterways. Traffic congestion affects virtually every aspect of peoples' lives—where people live, where they work, where they shop and how much they pay for goods and services. According to 2003 figures, in certain metropolitan areas the average rush hour driver loses as many as 93 hours per year to travel delay—equivalent to more than 2 weeks of work, amounting annually to a virtual “congestion tax” as high as $1,598 per traveler in wasted time and fuel. 1 Nationwide, congestion imposes costs on the economy of over $65 billion per year, 2 a figure that has more than doubled since 1993, and that would be even higher if it accounted for the significant cost of unreliability to drivers and businesses, the environmental impacts of idle related auto emissions, or increase gasoline prices. 1 Texas Transportation Institute (TTI_, 2005 Urban Mobility Report, May 2005 ( *http://ttiltamu.edu/documents/mobility_report_2005.pdf* ), Tables 1 and 2. 2 TTI, 2005 Urban Mobility Report, p. 1. The STEP directly addresses congestion reduction efforts as part of the Planning Focus Area. Other STEP emphasis areas include goals and objectives that relate to congestion reduction. These include: Congestion; Air Quality and Global Climate Change, Bicycle/Pedestrian and Health, Environmental Streamlining/Stewardship; U.S./Canada and U.S. Mexico Border Planning; Safety Planning; Freight Planning; Travel Modeling, etc. In addition, STEP outreach efforts continue to seek partnerships that can leverage limited research funding with other stakeholders and partners in order to increase the total amount of funding available to meet the Nation's surface transportation research needs including congestion reduction. SAFETEA-LU provides $16.875 million per year for FY 2006-2009 to implement this new cooperative research program. Due to obligation limitations, rescissions, and congressional designation of Title V Research in SAFETEA-LU, it is anticipated that approximately $11.7 million of the $16.875 million authorized will be available each fiscal year. On March 1, 2006, FHWA published a notice in the **Federal Register** (71 FR 10586) announcing the creation of an FHWA Web site to provide information regarding STEP and to solicit public input on the implementation strategy for this program. After reviewing the comments received in response to this notice, FHWA published a notice in the **Federal Register** on August 4, 2006 (71 FR 44348), announcing the posting of the final STEP Implementation Strategy on the STEP Web site. Additionally, this notice requested suggestions be submitted via the STEP Web site for the lines of research that should be undertaken in the STEP program. The FHWA is issuing this notice:
(1)To announce revisions to the STEP Implementation Strategy for the FY 2008 STEP, and
(2)to solicit comments on proposed research activities to be undertaken in the FY 2008 STEP via the STEP Web site. The STEP Implementation Strategy was revised to: update information on the graph and chart regarding historical planning and environment research funding, and to add information about proposed FY 2008 STEP including proposed funding levels, goals and potential research activities. Suggested lines of research activities for the FY 2008 STEP may include potential research ideas related to highway safety and the Congestion Initiative. Research activities related to the Congestion Initiative could specifically include ideas to relieve urban congestion; unleash private sector investment resources; promote operational and technological improvements and target major freight bottlenecks and expand freight policy outreach. We invite the public to visit this Web site to obtain additional information on the STEP, as well as information on the process for forwarding comments to FHWA regarding the STEP implementation plan. The URL for the STEP Web site is *http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/hep/step/index.htm.* The FHWA will use this Web site as a major mechanism for informing the public regarding the status of the STEP.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Receipt of application On March 29, 2007, the Coast Guard and the Maritime Administration received an application from Port Dolphin Energy LLC for all Federal authorizations required for a license to own, construct, and operate a deepwater port authorized under the Deepwater Port Act of 1974, as amended, 33 U.S.C. 1501 *et seq.* (the Act). On June 15, 2007, we determined that the application contains all information required by the Act to initiate processing. Background According to the Act, a deepwater port is a fixed or floating man-made structure other than a vessel, or a group of structures, located beyond State seaward boundaries and used or intended for use as a port or terminal for the transportation, storage, and further handling of oil or natural gas for transportation to any State. A deepwater port must be licensed by the Maritime Administrator (by delegated authority of the Secretary of Transportation, published on June 18, 2003 (68 FR 36496)). Statutory and regulatory requirements for licensing appear in 33 U.S.C. 1501 *et seq.* and in 33 CFR Part 148. Under delegations from and agreements between the Secretary of Transportation and the Secretary of Homeland Security, applications are processed by the Coast Guard and the Maritime Administration. Each application is considered on its merits. The Act requires adherence to a strict timeline for processing an application. Once we determine that an application contains the required information, we must hold public hearings on the application within 240 days, and the Maritime Administrator must render a decision on the application within 330 days. We will publish additional **Federal Register** notices to inform you of these public hearings and other procedural milestones, including the environmental review. The Maritime Administrator's decision, and other key documents, will be filed in the public docket. At least one public hearing must take place in each adjacent coastal state. For purposes of the Act, Florida is the adjacent coastal state for this application. Other states can apply for adjacent coastal state status in accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1508(a)(2). Summary of the Application Port Dolphin Energy LLC, proposes to own, construct, and operate a deepwater port, named Port Dolphin, in the Federal waters of the Outer Continental Shelf in the St. Petersburg
(PB)blocks: PB545, PB589 and PB590, approximately 28 miles off the west coast of Florida to the southwest of Tampa Bay, in a water depth of approximately 100 feet. Port Dolphin would consist of a permanently moored unloading buoy system with two submersible buoys separated by a distance of approximately three miles. Each unloading buoy would be permanently secured to eight mooring lines, consisting of wire rope, chain, and buoyancy elements, each attached to anchor points on the seabed. Anchor points would consist most likely of driven piles. The buoys would be designed to moor a specialized type of LNG vessel called a Shuttle and Regasification Vessel
(SRV)of between 145,000 and 217,000 cubic meter capacity. SRV vessels are equipped to vaporize cryogenic LNG cargo to natural gas through an onboard closed loop vaporization system, and to odorize and meter gas for send-out by means of the unloading buoy to conventional subsea pipelines. The SRVs would moor to the unloading buoys which connect through the hull of the vessels to specially designed turrets that would enable the vessels to weathervane or rotate in response to prevailing wind, wave, and current directions. When the vessels are not present, the buoys would be submerged on a special landing pad on the seabed, 60-70 feet below the sea surface. Each unloading buoy would connect through a 16-inch flexible riser and a 36-inch flowline to a Y intersection and then a 36-inch pipeline approximately 42 miles in length that would connect onshore in Port Manatee, Manatee County, Florida. The pipeline would connect with the Gulfstream Natural Gas System, LLC and Tampa Electric Company (TECO). The 36-inch gas transmission line will make landfall on Port Manatee property. From there, the transmission pipeline would proceed in a generally easterly direction to the first interconnection point with the Gulfstream system at 3.6-miles. The Gulfstream Interconnection Station would occupy an approximately two-acre site. Up to approximately 80 percent of the natural gas or 800 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) is expected to be delivered to the Gulfstream Pipeline. The remaining portion of the natural gas, up to approximately 360 mmscfd, would be transported by 14-inch line to the TECO interconnection station, located 5.8-miles east of the Gulfstream interconnect. Only shuttle and regasification vessels
(SRVs)would call on Port Dolphin. Offloading should require between 4-8 days and when empty the SRV would disconnect from the buoy and leave the port. Initially it is expected that Port Dolphin would be capable of a natural gas throughput of 400 mmscfd and would eventually be capable of 800 mmscfd with a peak capacity of 1200 mmscfd by having at least one SRV regasifying and discharging at all times. The system would be designed so that two SRVs can be moored simultaneously for continuous unloading of natural gas. Port Dolphin Energy LLC is seeking Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC)approval for the onshore pipelines concurrent with this deepwater port application. As required by FERC regulations, FERC will also maintain a docket for the FERC portion of the project. The docket numbers are CP07-191-000 and CP07-192-000. The filing may also be viewed on the web at *http://www.ferc.gov* using the “eLibrary” link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access the document. For assistance, call
(866)208-3767 or TYY,
(202)502-8659. In addition, pipelines and structures such as the moorings may require permits under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act which are administered by the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Port Dolphin will also require permits from the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA)pursuant to the provisions of the Clean Air Act, as amended, and the Clean Water Act, as amended. The new pipeline will be included in the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)review as part of the deepwater port application process. FERC, EPA, and the USACE among others, are cooperating agencies and will assist in the NEPA process as described in 40 CFR 1501.6; will be participating in the scoping meetings; and will incorporate the EIS into their permitting processes. Comments sent to the FERC docket, EPA or USACE will also be incorporated into the DOT docket and EIS to ensure consistency with the NEPA Process. Construction of the deepwater port would be expected to take approximately 22 months with startup of commercial operations following construction, should a license be issued. The deepwater port would be designed, constructed and operated in accordance with applicable codes and standards.

(202)366-1834. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 18, 1975 (40 FR 36167), NHTSA published a standard for Calibrating Units for Breath Alcohol Testers. A Qualified Products List of calibrating units for breath alcohol testers that met the standard was first issued on November 30, 1976 (41 FR 53389). On December 14, 1984, NHTSA issued a notice to convert the mandatory standards for calibrating units for breath alcohol testers to Model Specification for such devices (49 FR 48865) and to establish a Conforming Products List
(CPL)of calibrating units meeting the Model Specifications. Calibrating units provide known concentrations of ethanol vapor for the calibration or calibration checks of instruments that measure breath alcohol (BrAC). On December 29, 1994, NHTSA published a notice amending the Model Specifications and updating the CPL for calibrating units (59 FR 67377). The notice also proposed and sought comments about providing an alternate test procedure using National Institute for Standards and Technology
(NIST)Reference Gas Mixtures for evaluating the accuracy and precision of dry-gas ethanol calibrating units. The agency amended the Model Specifications on August 13, 1997 by incorporating the NIST test procedure (62 FR 43416). In that same notice, NHTSA updated the CPL and proposed an alternate test procedure for evaluating the accuracy and precision for evaluating wet bath and dry gas calibrating units using infra-red spectroscopy. Having received no comments regarding the infra-red spectroscopy test procedure, this notice adopts the alternate procedure for evaluating wet bath and dry gas calibrating units using infra-red spectroscopy as proposed. This notice also amends the CPL of Calibrating Units for Breath Alcohol Testers, adding 8 wet bath units and 14 dry gas units. A. Procedures for a Product Submission Testing of calibrating units submitted by manufacturers to these Model Specifications will continue to be conducted by the DOT Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (VNTSC). Tests will continue to be conducted semi-annually or as necessary. Manufacturers wishing to submit calibrating units for testing must apply to NHTSA for a test date (Office of Behavioral Safety Research, NTI-130, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590, Telephone
(202)366-1694). Normally, at least 30 days will be required from the date of notification until the test can be scheduled. One week prior to the scheduled initiation of the test program, the manufacturer shall deliver at least one unit of the device to be tested to: VNTSC, RTV-4F, 55 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02142. The manufacturer shall be responsible for ensuring that the unit is operating properly. If the manufacturer wishes to submit a duplicate, backup unit, it may do so. When a manufacturer delivers a device to be tested, it shall also deliver to VNTSC specifications and drawings that fully describe the unit and the Operator's Manual and Maintenance Manual normally supplied with purchase of the equipment. NHTSA will consider claims of confidentiality under 49 CFR Part 512. The manufacturer shall also deliver the instructions that will accompany the device when it is sold. The instructions shall include information about the procedures to be followed to protect against possible condensation that might occur as a result of freezing during shipment and to correct for atmospheric pressure. The instructions shall also include information about any offsets that may apply to the use of a particular type of breath tester. NHTSA will examine these instructions to ensure that they provide sufficient information about these matters. Products submitted without this information will not be tested. The manufacturer will have the right to check the calibrating unit between arrival at VNTSC and the start of the test and to ensure that the calibrating unit is in proper working condition. The manufacturer will have no access to the calibrating unit during the tests. Any malfunction of the calibrating unit that results in failure to complete any of the tests satisfactorily will result in a finding that it does not conform to the Model Specifications. If a unit fails to conform, it may be resubmitted for testing after appropriate corrective action has been taken. On the basis of these results, NHTSA periodically will publish a CPL identifying the calibrating units that conform to the Model Specifications. Re-testing of units will be conducted when necessary. NHTSA intends to modify and improve these Model Specifications as new data and improved test procedures become available. (The test procedures may be altered in specific instances, if necessary, to meet the unique design features of a calibrating unit). If these Model Specifications are modified, notification will be provided in the **Federal Register.** If NHTSA determines that re-testing to the modified specifications is necessary, a manufacturer whose equipment is listed on the CPL will be notified to resubmit the equipment for testing to the modified specifications only. NHTSA reserves the right to test any unit on the CPL throughout its useful life to ensure that the unit is performing in accordance with the Model Specifications. If at any time a manufacturer plans to change the design of a calibrating unit currently on the CPL, the manufacturer shall submit the proposed changes to the NHTSA Office of Behavioral Safety Research for review. Based on this review, NHTSA will decide whether the change will require re-testing of the unit. Normally, such re-testing will be accomplished the next time testing is performed. Guidance to manufacturers on considerations governing this decision is available from NHTSA upon request. NHTSA's Office of Behavioral Safety Research will be the point of contact for information about acceptance testing and field performance of equipment already on the list. NHTSA requests that users of calibrating units provide both acceptance and field performance data to NHTSA when such data is available. Information from users will be used to:
(1)Help NHTSA determine whether units continue to perform according to the Model Specifications, and
(2)ensure that field use does not indicate excessive breakdown or maintenance problems. If information gathered indicates that a device on the CPL is not performing in accordance with the Model Specifications or demonstrates problems involving the device, NHTSA will direct VNTSC to conduct a special investigation. This investigation may include visits to users and additional tests of the unit obtained from the open market. If the investigation indicates that the units actually sold on the market are not meeting the Model Specifications, then the manufacturer will be notified that the unit may be removed from the CPL. The manufacturer shall have 30 days from the date of notification to reply. Based on the VNTSC investigation and any data provided by the manufacturer, NHTSA will decide whether the unit should remain on the CPL. Upon resubmission, the manufacturer must submit a statement describing what has been done to overcome the problems that led to the removal of the unit in question from the CPL. B. Infra-Red Spectroscopy This notice incorporates into the Model Specifications an alternate procedure for evaluating wet bath and dry gas calibrating units using infra-red spectroscopy. When infra-red spectroscopy is used, the wet bath or dry gas sample to be analyzed is passed into a chamber through which infra-red radiation is transmitted. The wavelength of the transmitted radiation is chosen so that some of it is absorbed by alcohol. According to the Beer-Lambert Law of absorption of radiation, 1 the amount of energy absorbed by the sample in the chamber is proportional to the concentration of the alcohol in the sample. By measuring the amount of radiation transmitted when the sample chamber is empty and the amount transmitted when the sample is present, the concentration of the alcohol in the sample can be determined. 1 Farrington Daniels & Robert Alberty, “Physical Chemistry” 3d. Ed. John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1996. The agency believes that use of infra-red spectroscopy offers important advantages. First, the technique can be used to evaluate both wet bath calibrating units and dry gas calibrating units because surface interactions do not affect the analysis. Second, standards used in the evaluations can be prepared at VNTSC, eliminating the necessity of obtaining standards from an outside source. C. Conforming Products List The CPL, which appears as an Appendix to this notice, lists the calibrating units that have been re-tested to date at the lower BACs ( *i.e.,* at 0.020, 0.040, 0.080, and 0.160) and found to conform to the Model Specifications reprinted herein. The CPL also lists devices that have not been tested at the lower BAC levels (.020, .040, .080 and .0160), but were listed on the CPL for calibrating units on the basis that they were tested and found to conform to the earlier Model Specifications (49 FR 48864) when tested at BAC levels 0.050, 0.100 and 0.150. These devices are identified on the CPL with an asterisk. The CPL published today includes 22 new listings—8 wet bath units and 14 dry gas units. The wet bath units include: CALWAVE dt-100, submitted by Davtech Analytical Service, Canada; Model 10-4D, Model 10-4D Revision A, Model 2100 (aka: Model 210021), Model 2100 Revision A, and 590 submitted by Guth Laboratories, Inc., Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Alcotest CU 34 submitted by National Draeger, Inc., Durango, Colorado; and Model 3402C-2K submitted by RepCo Marketing, Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina. The dry gas units 2 include: 103 ppm/108L and 270 ppm/30L submitted by Airgas, Inc., (previously know as Gateway Airgas, Inc., A.G. Specialty Gas Co., or Acetylene Gas Co) St. Louis, Missouri; 115 ppm/34L, 115 ppm/103L, 230 ppm/34L, 230 ppm/103L, 260.5 ppm/58L, 260.5 ppm/537L, and 260.5 ppm/15L submitted by Air Liquide, CALGAZ, Cambridge, Maryland; and Scotty 28 0.040 BAC/28L, 0.045 BAC/28L, 0.080 BAC/28L, 0.100 BAC/28L, 0.105 BAC/28L submitted by Scott Specialty Gases, Inc., Plumsteadville, Pennsylvania. One device, Toxitest Model ABS120 by Federal Signal Corporation, is being removed from the CPL as it is no longer manufactured. 2 The naming convention of the dry gas units added to the CPL today is illustrative of the ethanol concentration in the volume of nitrogen dry gas. Concentration is expressed in parts per million
(ppm)or marketed as breath alcohol concentrations
(BAC)and volume is expressed in Liters(L). In consideration of the foregoing, NHTSA amends the Model Specifications for Calibrating United as set forth below. Model Specifications for Calibrating United for Breath Alcohol Testers 1.0 Purpose and Scope These specifications establish performance criteria and methods for testing of calibrating units which provide known concentrations of ethanol vapor for the calibration or calibration checks of breath alcohol testers. The results of this testing are intended for use in the conformance testing for the maintenance of a Conforming Products List for calibrating units. 2.0 Definitions 2.1 Conformance testing. Testing to check the conformance of a product with these model specifications in advance of and independent of any specific procurement action. 2.2 Concentration units. Blood alcohol concentration: grams alcohol per 100 milliliters blood or grams alcohol per 210 liters of breath in accordance with the Uniform Vehicle Code, Section 11-903(a)(5). 3 BrAC is often used to indicate that the measurement is a breath measurement, i.e. grams alcohol per 210 liters of breath. 3 Available from National Committee on Uniform Traffic Laws and Ordinances, 405 Church Street, Evanston, IL 60201. 2.3 Relative Standard Deviation (RSD). The ratio of the standard deviation
(SD)of a series of measurements to the mean of the series expressed as a percentage: RSD = (SD/Mean) × 100 percent 2.4 Standard Deviation (SD). A common indication of precision in the measurement of the concentration of a succession of N vapor samples. SD = {Sum (X i −X m ) 2 /(N-1)} 1/2 Where: X i = a single measurement result; X m = the average of the measurements; N = the number of measurements made in the test. 2.5 Systematic Error (SE). An indication of the accuracy of the measurement of the concentration of a succession of vapor samples. SE = X m − test BrAC 2.6 Least Squares Fit Calibration Curve. A Line fitted to a number of measurement pairs, one the independent value
(X)and the other the dependent value (Y), over a measurement range. The fitted line is of the form: Y = a + bX, where intercept, a = Y <sup>m</sup> −b <sup>m</sup> , and slope, b = (SumX <sup>i</sup> Y <sup>i</sup> −NX <sup>m</sup> ) / (SumX <sup>i</sup> 2 −nX <sup>m</sup> 2 ) 3.0 Tests and Requirements If the BrAC of the CU is fixed, perform the tests at the fixed BrAC; otherwise, prepare the CU for testing at 0.08 BrAC except as otherwise required in Test 1 below. Each of the tests requires 10 measurements to three decimal places using the test procedure specified in 3.1, 3.2, or 3.3, respectively. The CU will be operated according to the manufacturer's instructions. Unless otherwise specified, the tests will be performed in the absence of drafts and at prevailing normal laboratory temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. Performance requirements are: −0.002 BrAC ≤ SE ≤ +0.002 BrAC; RSD ≤ 2% *Test 1.* Precision and Accuracy. Test at each specified BrAc. Test 1.1: 0.020 BrAC Test 1.2: 0.040 BrAC Test 1.3: 0.080 BrAC Test 1.4: 0.160 BrAC *Test 2.* Ambient Temperature. Use a temperature chamber controllable to ± °C. Soak the CU at the specified temperature for 1 hour, being careful to prevent drafts on the device, then test at that temperature. Test 2.1: 10 °C Test 2.2: 30 °C *Test 3.* Input Power. If the CU is powered by nominal voltages of 120 volts AC of 12 volts DC, condition the device for one half hour at the appropriate input voltage specified below, then test at that voltage. Monitor the input power with a voltmeter accurate to ± 2% full scale in the range used and re-adjust the voltage, if necessary. If the voltage is Ac, conduct test 3.1 and 3.2. If the voltage is DC, conduct tests 3.3 and 3.4. Test 3.1: 108 Volts/AC Test 3.2: 123 Volts/AC Test 3.3: 11 Volts/DC Test 3.4: 15 Volts/DC *Test 4.* Electrical Safety Inspection. Examine the CU for protection of the operator from electrical shock. Examine for proper use of input power fuses, and verify that there are no exposed male connectors at high potential. Determine that overheating does not occur during operation and that undue fire hazards do not exist. 3.1 Test Procedure (Original, wet-bath calibrating units) Equipment and Supplies: *Gas Chromatograph* capable of complete resolution of ethanol in test samples, with heated gas sampling valve. *Water bath* thermostated at 34 °C ± 0.1 °C. *Glass Reference Sample Bottles (300 ml capacity or greater) with Stopper and Inlet and Outlet Air Hoses* (see Figure 1). Hoses should be about 1/8'' OD Teflon tubing. *Reference Ethanol Solutions* prepared using Class A glassware and American Chemical Society reagent grade ethanol or USP grade ethanol. The purity of the ethanol used shall be compared with the National Institute of standards and Technology
(NIST)Standard Reference Material for ethanol. Use the value of Harger, *et al.* , for the partition ratio for concentration of ethanol in headspace to concentration in solution at 34 °C, Ka/w = 0.000393 4 to prepare two solutions which, when thermostated at 34 °C, produce headspace ethanol vapor concentrations that bracket the test BrAC by no more than ± 20%. Small Air Pump for bubbling air through reference solutions (see Figure 1). 4 RN Harger, BB Raney, EG Bridwell, MF Kitchel J. Biol. Chem. 183, 197-213 (1950). Additional data from Harger in a private communication (see 49 FR 48869). *Step 1.* Prepare the Gas Chromatograph for measurement of vapor samples. Adjust instrument temperatures, gas flows, detector, and recording device for optimum response for ethanol. Prepare the CU for use according to manufacturer's instructions. *Step 2.* Fill two reference solution bottles to 3/4 full with above reference solutions. Insert stopper assemblies with bubble line and alcohol vapor line in place and put bottles in the water bath with water level up to the stopper. Connect air pump to bubble line. Connect alcohol vapor line to gas chromatograph sampling valve inlet fitting. Allow 1 hour for temperature equilibrium to be achieved. *Step 3.* Turn on air pump which has been pre-set to pump air through the reference solution bottle-gas chromatograph sampling assembly at a rate just sufficient to thoroughly flush the system in 10 seconds. After flushing is complete, allow the sample to relax to atmospheric pressure, then inject the reference sample onto the gas chromatograph column. In this way, obtain 5 chromatograms of one of the reference solution headspace ethanol vapors. *Step 4.* Thoroughly flush the sample loop with vapors from the CU device, while avoiding over-pressurizing of the sampling system. To prevent condensation of alcohol, warm the transfer line if necessary. Allow the sample to relax to atmospheric pressure, then inject the sample onto the column. In this way, obtain 10 ethanol chromatograms using the CU device. *Step 5.* Repeat step 3 using the second reference solution. *Step 6.* Calculations. *Peak height to BrAC conversion factor.* For each ethanol peak obtained in Step 3 and Step 5, calculate a conversion factor for ethanol concentration by dividing the equivalent BrAC of the vapor sample by the peak height obtained for that sample. From the 10 samples, obtain the mean and the RSD of the conversion factors. If the RSD obtained fails to meet the criteria for RSD in 3.0, perform necessary troubleshooting and repeat the procedure from Step 1. Use the mean of the conversion factors to calculate the BrAC for each of the 10 ethanol peaks obtained in Step 4. Calculate the mean, the RSD, and the systematic error of the experimental BrACs. EN25JN07.000 3.2 Test Procedures (for dry gas calibrating units). Alternate Test Method using National Institute of Standards and Technology Reference Gas Mixtures (NISTRGMs) in place of wet bath reference samples The following alternate method for the evaluation of dry gaseous ethanol calibration devices is presented. *Additional required material:* For the alternate method for evaluation of dry gaseous ethanol calibration devices, the following will be required: Four cylinders of National Institute of Standards and Technology ethanol-in-inert gas Technical Reference Gas Mixtures (NISTRGMs) which span the BrAC range 0.01 to 0.16. *Alternate procedure for evaluation of dry gaseous ethanol calibration devices.* This procedure substitutes the use of NISTRGMs in place of the wet bath reference samples when evaluating dry gas CUs. *Step A1.* Connect one of the NISTRGM cylinders to the inlet of the gas chromatograph sampling valve and pass reference gas through the sampling system at a rate just sufficient to thoroughly flush the system in about 10 seconds. Allow the sample to relax to atmospheric pressure, then inject the sample onto the column. In this way, obtain 5 chromatograms of the reference gas. *Step A2.* Repeat Step A1 for each of the four NISTRGM reference gas mixtures. *Step A3.* Calculate the RSD of the concentration divided by peak height data obtained in Step A1 and Step A2. If the calculated RSD meets the criteria of 3.0, calculate the slope and intercept of the least squares fit calibration line for conversion of peak height to BrAC. Using the average peak height of each NISTRGM and the slope and intercept data, calculate the concentration of each NISTRGM. If the resulting concentrations are within the stated accuracy of the NISTRGM, proceed to Step A4. *Step A4.* Connect the calibrating device to the inlet of the gas chromatograph sampling system and allow the calibrating device gas to flow at a rate just sufficient to thoroughly flush the sampling system in about 10 seconds. Allow the sample to relax to atmospheric pressure, then inject the sample onto the column. In this way, obtain 10 chromatograms of the calibrating device gas. *Step A5.* Calculations. Using the peak height data obtained in Step A4 and intercept and slope data obtained in Step A3, calculate the BrAC for each of the 10 peak heights. Calculate the mean, RSD, and systematic error of the calculated BrACs. 3.3 Test Procedures (for dry gas or wet bath calibrating units) This alternate procedure uses infra-red spectroscopy that is suitable for evaluating ethanol vapor samples from either wet-bath CUs or from dry-gas CUs. 3.3.1 General. This method uses the Beer-Lambert Law of absorption of radiant energy by fluids. I = I <sup>o</sup> × e −abc Where: I <sup>o</sup> is the energy entering the sample chamber of a spectrophotometer containing the sample to be analyzed. I is the energy transmitted from the sample chamber. a is the absorptivity of the sample. b is the radiation path length of the sample chamber. c is the concentration of the sample in the sample chamber. A convenient form of the Beer-Lambert law is Ln(I <sup>o</sup> /I) = abc where the term Ln(I <sup>o</sup> /I), the logarithm of the ratio of incident to transmitted energy, is called the absorbance of the sample. In the procedure described below, the terms a and b are treated as a single quantity, ab, and the term c is BrAC. 3.3.2 Test Procedure. Equipment and Supplies. *Infra-red Spectrophotometer* with sample chamber that can be heated to above 40 °C. A non-dispersive instrument with appropriate band pass filters and configured to measure breath alcohol samples, such as an infra-red evidential breath tester listed on the NHTSA Conforming Products List for evidential breath testers may be used. The detector voltage of the instrument must be accessible for measurement. The sampling hoses of the device may be altered for more convenient processing of test samples. *Water bath* thermostated at 34 °C ± 0.1 °C. *Glass Reference Sample Bottles (300 ml capacity or greater) and Stoppers with Bubble and Alcohol Vapor lines* (see Figure 2). *Reference Ethanol Solutions* prepared using Class A glassware and American Chemical Society reagent grade ethanol or USP grade ethanol. The purity of the ethanol used shall be compared with the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST)Standard Reference Material for ethanol. Use the value of Harger, *et al.,* for the partition ratio for concentration of ethanol in headspace to concentration in solution at 34 °C, K <sup>a/w</sup> = 0.000393 2 to prepare two aqueous alcohol solutions which bracket the test BrAC by no more than ± 20%. A cylinder of inert *Flushing Gas* , which is optically clear in the absorption region used for measurement. This gas will be used to flush the sample chamber of the spectrophotometer and to deliver reference headspace vapors and wet bath sample vapors into the sample chamber. *Pressure regulating valve with Teflon delivery hose* for controlling flow and delivery of flushing gas. *Step B1.* Prepare the spectrometer for measurement of vapor samples. Prepare the CU for use according to manufacturer's instructions. *Step B2.* Fill a reference sample bottles to 3/4 full with water and two reference sample bottles to 3/4 full with the above reference solutions. Insert stopper assemblies ensuring that the end of the bubble line reaches to at least 4 inches below the surface of the solution, then place the bottles in the water bath with water level up to the stopper. Allow 1 hour for temperature equilibrium to be achieved. *Step B3.* Connect the bubble line of the sample bottle containing water only to the flushing gas valve and the vapor line to the spectrophotometer inlet and flush the sample chamber with water vapor and obtain the detector voltage reading. Then flush the detector chamber with flushing gas only and obtain the detector reading. Repeat 2 times to obtain 3 sets of readings. If the CU being evaluated is a wet bath device, skip this step and proceed to Step B4. *Step B4.* In the manner of Step B3, obtain 5 sets of detector readings using one of the reference alcohol solution bottles. *Step B5.* In the manner of Step B3, obtain 10 sets of detector readings from the CU being evaluated. If the CU is a wet bath device, use the flushing gas to fill the sample chamber, operating the device according to manufacturer's instructions. If the CU device is dry gas device, fill the sample chamber according to manufacturer's instructions. *Step B6.* Repeat Step B5 using the other reference alcohol solution bottle. *Step B7.* Repeat Step B3. *Step B8.* Calculations. For each measurement pair, I <sup>o</sup> is the detector voltage obtained for the flushing gas alone in the sample chamber and I is the voltage obtained for the flushing gas with reference sample or test sample in the sample chamber corrected for water vapor absorption, i.e.; the detector voltage obtained for headspace reference samples at 0.000 BrAC. Use the average of the 6 voltage readings obtained for the water samples for the correction for water vapor absorption (I = I <sup>sample</sup> − I <sup>water</sup> ). In the case of wet bath device samples, there is no correction for water vapor absorption. If the detector is biased, it will be the difference between the bias voltage and the above voltage. Calculate the absorbance for each of the 10 reference samples. Divide each absorbance by the corresponding BrAC of the sample. Obtain the mean (which is the factor ab), SD, and RSD for the 10 ratios. If the RSD is more than 2%, troubleshoot the procedure and repeat. Calculate the absorbance for each of the 10 CU test samples. Divide each by the ab factor to obtain the BrAC for each of the 10 CU samples. Obtain the mean, SD, RSD, and SE.
