14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2014-0199; Airspace Docket No. 14-AGL-9]

Proposed Establishment of Class E Airspace; North Dakota

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to establish Class E airspace extending
upward from 1,200 feet above the surface within the boundary of the
state of North Dakota. With the increased use of GPS/GNSS navigation
systems, pilots routinely file and fly flight plans using point-to-
point routes instead of published airways. Often, these point-to-point
routes take aircraft through uncontrolled airspace (Class G). With this
proposal, Minneapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) would
provide a more expeditious service and increased efficiency within the
National Airspace System (NAS).

DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 20, 2014.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this proposal to the U.S. Department of
Transportation, Docket Operations, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., West
Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, Washington, DC 20590-0001. You
must identify the docket number FAA-2014-0199/Airspace Docket No. 14-
AGL-9, at the beginning of your comments. You may also submit comments
through the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov. You may review the
public docket containing the proposal, any comments received, and any
final disposition in person in the Dockets Office between 9:00 a.m. and
5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The Docket
Office (telephone 1-800-647-5527), is on the ground floor of the
building at the above address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as
they may desire.

Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views and
suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing reasoned
regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are specifically invited
on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, environmental, and
energy-related aspects of the proposal. Communications should identify
both docket numbers and be submitted in triplicate to the address
listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to acknowledge receipt of
their comments on this notice must submit with those comments a self-
addressed, stamped postcard on which the following statement is made:
``Comments to Docket No. FAA-2014-0199/Airspace Docket No. 14-AGL-9.''
The postcard will be date/time stamped and returned to the commenter.

Availability of NPRMs

    An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the
Internet at http://www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking
documents can also be accessed through the FAA's Web page at http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/air_traffic/publications/airspace_amendments/.
    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received and any final disposition in person in the Dockets
Office (see ADDRESSES section for address and phone number) between
9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal
business hours at the office of the Central Service Center, 2601
Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137.
    Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future
NPRMs should contact the FAA's Office of Rulemaking<PHONE_NUMBER>, to
request a copy of Advisory Circular No. 11-2A, Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking Distribution System, which describes the application
procedure.

The Proposal

    This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR), Part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending upward from
1,200 feet above the surface within the state of North Dakota. This
action would enable Minneapolis ARTCC to have greater latitude to use
radar vectors and/or altitude changes that would provide a more
efficient use of airspace within the NAS.
    Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order
7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013 and effective September 15, 2013, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in
the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore, (1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rulemaking, when promulgated, will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 describes
the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This proposed regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it would establish controlled airspace within the state of
North Dakota.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action. If you have any questions regarding the
applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
     ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is releasing for public comment its human health and
environmental fate and effects risk assessments and related documents
for siduron and soliciting public comment on risk management ideas or
proposals. EPA developed the risk assessments and risk characterization
for siduron through a modified version of its public process for making
pesticide reregistration eligibility and tolerance reassessment
decisions. Through these programs, EPA is ensuring that pesticides meet
current standards under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(FFDCA), as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA).
    Sidruon is a selective, systemic preemergence herbicide used to
control grassy weeds in stands of cool-season grass. It is registered
for use on lawns, golf courses, and sod farms. Siduron is not
registered for any food uses.
    EPA is providing an opportunity, through this notice, for
interested parties to provide comments and input on the Agency's risk
assessments for siduron. Such comments and input could address, for
example, the availability of additional data to further refine the risk
assessments, or could address the Agency's risk assessment
methodologies and assumptions as applied to this specific pesticide.
    Through this notice, EPA also is providing an opportunity for
interested parties to provide risk management proposals or otherwise
comment on risk management for siduron. Risks of concern associated
with the use of siduron are: Dermal exposure risks to residential
handlers from loading/applying granular products with a belly-grinder;
residential post-application dermal exposure risks for scenarios
involving toddlers, youths, and adults; dermal exposure risks to
occupational handlers; chronic risks to freshwater and estuarine/marine
invertebrates; and risks to freshwater non-vascular plants. In
targeting these risks of concern, the Agency solicits information on
effective and practical risk reduction measures.
    EPA seeks to achieve environmental justice, the fair treatment and
meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race, color,
national origin, or income, in the development, implementation, and
enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. To help
address potential environmental justice issues, the Agency seeks
information on any groups or segments of the population who, as a
result of their location, cultural practices, or other factors, may
have atypical, unusually high exposure to siduron, compared to the
general population.
    EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all
pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The
Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public
Participation Process, published in the Federal Register on May 14,
2004 (69 FR 26819) (FRL-7357-9), explains that in conducting these
programs, the Agency is tailoring its public participation process to
be commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of
the issues, and degree of public concern associated with each
pesticide. For siduron, a modified, 4-Phase process with 1 comment
period and ample opportunity for public consultation seems appropriate
in view of its limited use and few complex issues. However, if as a
result of comments received during this comment period, EPA finds that
additional issues warranting further discussion are raised, the Agency
may lengthen the process and include a second comment period, as
needed.
    All comments should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES,
and must be received by EPA on or before the closing date. Comments
will become part of the Agency Docket for sidruon. Comments received
after the close of the comment period will be marked ``late.'' EPA is
not required to consider these late comments.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA, as amended, directs that, after
submission of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, ``the
Administrator shall determine whether pesticides containing such active
ingredient are eligible for reregistration,'' before calling in
product-specific data on individual end-use products and either
reregistering products or taking other ``appropriate regulatory
action.''

Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: On May 25, 2010 and October 6, 2011, FEMA published in the
Federal Register a proposed rule that contained an erroneous table.
This notice provides corrections to those tables, to be used in lieu of
the information previously published. The table provided here
represents the flooding sources, location of referenced elevations,
effective and modified elevations, and communities affected for Iron
County, Utah, and Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the
following flooding sources: Coal Creek, Coal Creek Overflow, Coal Creek

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), in accordance with
section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
    These proposed BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements.
They should not be construed to mean that the community must change any
existing ordinances that are more stringent in their floodplain
management requirements. The community may at any time enact stricter
requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities. These proposed elevations are
used to meet the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and
also are used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium
rates for new buildings built after these elevations are made final,
and for the contents in those buildings.

Correction

    In the proposed rule published at 75 FR 29238 and 76 FR 62006, in
the May 25, 2010 and October 6, 2011, issues of the Federal Register,
respectively, FEMA published a table under the authority of 44 CFR
67.4. The tables, entitled ``Iron County, Utah, and Incorporated
Areas'' addressed the following flooding sources: Coal Creek, Coal
Creek Overflow, Coal Creek to Fiddlers Split, Cross Hollow, Greens
Lake, North Airport Canal, Old Quichapa Creek Lower, Old Quichapa Creek
Upper, Parowan Creek, Quichapa Channel, Quichapa West, Red Creek,

Shurtz Creek, Shurtz Creek Shallow, Squaw Creek and Water Canyon. The
tables contained inaccurate information as to the location of
referenced elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or
communities affected for that flooding source. In this notice, FEMA is
publishing a table containing the accurate information, to address
these errors. The information provided below should be used in lieu of
that previously published in both tables.

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notification of availability.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the
availability of a document entitled ``Qualitative Risk Assessment: Risk
of Activity/Animal Food Combinations for Activities (Outside the Farm
Definition) Conducted in a Facility Co-Located on a Farm'' (the RA).
The purpose of the RA is to provide a science-based risk analysis of
those activity/animal food combinations that would be considered low
risk when conducted in an animal food facility co-located on a farm. We
conducted this RA to satisfy requirements of the FDA Food Safety
Modernization Act (FSMA) to conduct a science-based risk analysis and
to consider the results of that analysis in rulemaking that is required
by FSMA.

DATES: September 17, 2015.

ADDRESSES: See the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for electronic
access to the RA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of October 29, 2013 (78 FR 64428), we
announced the availability of a draft qualitative risk assessment (RA)
(Ref. 1) related to manufacturing, processing, packing, and holding
activities for animal food when such activities are conducted in an
animal food facility co-located on a farm. Interested parties were
given the opportunity to submit comments by February 26, 2014, for us
to consider on the approach used, the assumptions made, how risk was
determined, the data used, and the clarity and the transparency of the
RA documentation. We extended the comment period on February 3, 2014
(79 FR 6116), to March 31, 2014. We received 11 comments on the draft
RA and have revised it where appropriate (Ref. 2).
    The purpose of the RA is to provide a science-based risk analysis
of those activity/animal food combinations that would be considered low
risk when conducted in an animal food facility co-located on a farm. We
conducted this RA to satisfy FSMA's requirements to conduct a science-
based risk analysis and to consider the results of that analysis in
determining whether to exempt small or very small businesses that are
engaged only in specific types of on-farm manufacturing, processing,
packing, or holding activities involving specific animal food that we
determine to be low risk from requirements specified in sections 418
and 421 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21
U.S.C. 350g and 350j, respectively), or whether to modify such
requirements for such facilities. See 78 FR 64428 through 64429 for
additional background information on FSMA, the requirements of sections
418 and 421 of the FD&C Act, the focus of the RA, the approach used,
the nine specific questions addressed by the RA, and our request for
comments.
    Before making the draft RA available for public comment, we
submitted an earlier version of the draft RA to a group of scientific
experts external to FDA for peer review and revised that earlier
version, as appropriate, considering the experts' comments. A report
concerning the external peer review is available for public review and
can be accessed from our Web site (Ref. 3).
    Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, FDA is issuing a
final rule to implement section 418 of the FD&C Act for food for
animals. That final rule establishes current good manufacturing
practice requirements for animal food facilities and establishes
requirements for certain animal food facilities to conduct a hazard
analysis and to identify and implement risk-based preventive controls.
In that final rule, we use the results of the RA to exempt animal food
facilities that are small or very small businesses, co-located on a
farm, from these requirements when such facilities are engaged only in
specific types of on-farm manufacturing, processing, packing, or
holding activities identified in the RA as low-risk activity/animal
food combinations.

II. Background

    Registration review is EPA's periodic review of pesticide
registrations to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the
statutory standard for registration, that is, the pesticide can perform
its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on human
health or the environment. As part of the registration review process,
the Agency has completed interim and final decisions for all pesticides
listed in Table 1 in Unit IV. Through this program, EPA is ensuring
that each pesticide's registration is based on current scientific and
other knowledge, including its effects on human health and the
environment.

III. Authority

    EPA is conducting its registration review of the chemicals listed
in Table 1 in Unit IV pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural
Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C.
Section 3(g) of FIFRA provides, among other things, that the
registrations of pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under
FIFRA, a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only
if it meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA
section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance with
widespread and commonly recognized practice, the pesticide product must
perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on
the environment; that is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the
environment, or a human dietary risk from residues that result from the
use of a pesticide in or on food.

IV. What action is the Agency taking?

    Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice announces the availability
of EPA's interim and final registration review decisions for the
pesticides shown in Table 1. The interim and final registration review
decisions are supported by rationales included in the docket
established for each chemical.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Coast Guard

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2017-0585]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone; Upper Mississippi River, Crystal City, MO

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary safety zone
for navigable waters of the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) from mile
147.5 to 148.5. This action is necessary to protect persons, property,
and infrastructure from potential damage and safety hazards associated
with work being completed on new power lines across the river. This
proposed rulemaking would prohibit persons and vessels from being in
the safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Sector
Upper Mississippi River (COTP) or a designated representative. We
invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before September 8, 2017.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2017-0585 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
proposed rulemaking, call or email LCDR Sean Peterson, Chief of
Prevention, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, email

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port Upper Mississippi River
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
UMR Upper Mississippi River
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    On May 1, 2017, Ameren notified the Coast Guard that it would be
conducting high wire work across the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) at
river mile 148 from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day beginning October
17, 2017 through November 01, 2017. Hazards involved with high wire
work include falling cable and a blocked navigation channel. Due to the
risks associated with this work crossing the navigable channel, a
closure would be needed. The Captain of the Port Upper Mississippi
River (COTP) has determined that potential hazards associated with
stretching power lines across the navigational channel present safety
concerns for anyone within this limited area of the UMR. The purpose of
this proposed rulemaking is to ensure the safety of vessels and the
navigable waters between mile markers (MM) 147.5 and MM 148.5 during
the high wire work over the river. The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The COTP is proposing to establish a safety zone from 7:30 a.m. on
October 17, 2017, through 6:30 p.m. on November 01, 2017. The safety
zone would include all navigable waters between MM 147.5 and MM 148.5
on the UMR and would be enforced from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day
or until conditions allow for safe navigation, whichever occurs
earlier. The duration of the zone is intended to ensure the safety of
the vessels on the navigable waters during the high wire work. No
vessel or person would be permitted to enter the safety zone without
obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative. The
regulatory text we are proposing appears at the end of this document.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on a number of these statutes and Executive orders and
we discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This NPRM has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and time of day of the safety zone. This proposed
rule would have minimum impact on navigable waterway vessel traffic
because it will only be in effect during daylight hours from 7:30 a.m.
to 6:30 p.m., and would restrict transit in and through a section of
the UMR of one mile. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a BNM
(Broadcast Notice to Mariners) via VHF-FM radio channel 16 about the
zone and the proposed rule would allow vessels to seek permission to
enter the zone.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires Federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000. The Coast Guard certifies, under 5 U.S.C. 605(b), that this
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
safety

zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section V.A.
above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what
degree this rule would economically affect it.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect
your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you
have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that
question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action
of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would not call for a new collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government.
    We have analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and have
determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
    Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. If
you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction
M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made
a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of
actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant
effect on the human environment. This proposed rule involves a safety
zone on the UMR from MM 147.5 to MM 148.5. Normally such actions are
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(g) of
Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary Record of
Environmental Consideration (REC) supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any
comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places, or vessels.

V. Public Participation and Request for Comments

    We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking,
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If
you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this
rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which
each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or
recommendation. We encourage you to submit comments through the Federal
eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. If your material
cannot be submitted using http://www.regulations.gov, contact the
person in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document

    On April 24, 2020, SC DHEC submitted a SIP revision to EPA for
approval that includes changes to South Carolina Regulation 61-62.1--
Definitions and General Requirements. In this notice, EPA is proposing
to incorporate into South Carolina's SIP updates to Section III--
Emissions Inventory and Emissions Statements and Section V--Credible
Evidence of South Carolina Regulation 61-62.1.1 \1\ EPA is proposing to
approve these changes because they meet the requirements of and are
consistent with the CAA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The April 24, 2020, submittal from SC DHEC includes other
updates and revisions as well. EPA previously acted on Section 1--
Definitions of South Carolina Regulation 61-62.1. See 86 FR 59641
(October 28, 2021). EPA has not taken action on Section II--Permit
Requirements and Section IV--Source Tests of the South Carolina
Regulation 61-62.1. EPA will address these other provisions in
separate action.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Analysis of State's Submittal

    As mentioned above, the April 24, 2020, SIP revision includes
changes to Section III--Emissions Inventory and Emissions Statements
and Section V--Credible Evidence of South Carolina Regulation 61-62.1.
These changes update numbering and citation formatting within these
regulations (e.g., citations to the Code of Federal Regulations now
include the word ``Part''). These changes are non-substantive in
nature.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this document, EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with the requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference South Carolina's Regulation 61-62.1, Section III--Emissions
Inventory and Emissions Statements and Section V- Credible Evidence,
both of which are state effective on April 24, 2020. EPA has made, and
will continue to make, these materials generally available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 4 office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of
this preamble for more information).

IV. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve and incorporate into South Carolina's
SIP the aforementioned changes to South Carolina Regulation 61-62.1,
Section III--Emissions Inventory and Emissions Statements and Section
V--Credible Evidence, state effective on April 24, 2020. EPA has
preliminarily determined that these changes meet the applicable
requirements of section 110 of the CAA and the applicable regulatory
requirements at 40 CFR part 51.

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. See 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. This proposed action
merely proposes to approve state law as meeting Federal requirements
and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by
state law. For that reason, this proposed action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Because this proposed action merely proposes to approve state law
as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose additional
requirements beyond those imposed by state law, this proposed action
for the State of South Carolina does not have Tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
Therefore, this proposed action will not impose substantial direct
costs on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law. The Catawba Indian
Nation (CIN) Reservation is located within the boundary of York County,
South Carolina. Pursuant to the Catawba Indian Claims Settlement Act,
S.C. Code Ann. 27-16-120 (Settlement Act), ``all state and local
environmental laws and regulations apply to the [Catawba Indian Nation]
and are fully enforceable by all relevant state and local agencies and
authorities.'' The CIN also retains authority to impose regulations
applying higher environmental

standards to the Reservation than those imposed by state law or local
governing bodies, in accordance with the Settlement Act.
