Allocations of Cross-State Air Pollution Rule Allowances From New
Unit Set-Asides for the 2017 Compliance Year

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of data availability (NODA).

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing notice
of the availability of data on emission allowance allocations to
certain units under the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR). EPA has
completed preliminary calculations for the first round of allocations
of allowances from the CSAPR new unit set-asides (NUSAs) for the 2017
control periods and has posted spreadsheets containing the calculations
on EPA's Web site. EPA will consider timely objections to the
preliminary calculations (including objections concerning the
identification of units eligible for allocations) and will promulgate a
notice responding to any such objections no later than August 1, 2017,
the deadline for recording the first-round allocations in sources'
Allowance Management System accounts.

DATES: Objections to the information referenced in this notice must be
received on or before July 21, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit your objections via email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
Include ``2017 NUSA allocations'' in the email subject line and include
your name, title, affiliation, address, phone number, and email address
in the body of the email.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Questions concerning this action
should be addressed to Robert Miller at<PHONE_NUMBER> or
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Kenon Smith at<PHONE_NUMBER> or
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under each CSAPR trading program where EPA
is responsible for determining emission allowance allocations, a
portion of each state's emissions budget for the program for each
control period is reserved in a NUSA (and in an additional Indian
country NUSA in the case of states with Indian country within their
borders) for allocation to certain units that would not otherwise
receive allowance allocations. The procedures for annually allocating
allowances from each NUSA to eligible units are set forth in the CSAPR
regulations at 40 CFR 97.411(b) and 97.412 (NOX Annual
Trading Program), 97.511(b) and 97.512 (NOX Ozone Season
Group 1 Trading Program), 97.611(b) and 97.612 (SO2 Group 1
Trading Program), 97.711(b) and 97.712 (SO2 Group 2 Trading
Program), and 97.811(b) and 97.812 (NOX Ozone Season Group 2
Trading Program). Each NUSA allowance allocation process involves up to
two rounds of allocations to eligible units, termed ``new'' units,
followed by the allocation to ``existing'' units of any allowances not
allocated to new units.
    This notice concerns preliminary calculations for the first round
of NUSA allowance allocations for the 2017 control periods. Generally,
the allocation procedures call for each eligible unit to receive a
first-round 2017 NUSA allocation equal to its 2016 emissions as
reported under 40 CFR part 75 unless the total of such allocations to
all eligible units would exceed the amount of allowances in the NUSA,
in which case the allocations are reduced on a pro-rata basis.
    The detailed unit-by-unit data and preliminary allowance allocation
calculations are set forth in Excel spreadsheets titled
``CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOX_Annual_1st_Round_Prelim_Data'',
``CSAPR_NUSA_2017_NOX_OS_1st_Round_Prelim_Data'', and
``CSAPR_NUSA_2017_SO2_1st_Round_Prelim_Data,'' available on
EPA's Web site at https://www.epa.gov/csapr/new-unit-set-aside-notices-data-availability-nusa-noda-cross-state-air-pollution-rule. Each of the
spreadsheets contains a separate worksheet for each state covered by
that program showing, for each unit identified as eligible for a first-
round NUSA allocation, (1) the unit's emissions in the 2016 control
period (annual or ozone season as applicable), (2) the maximum first-
round 2017 NUSA allowance allocation for which the unit is eligible
(typically the unit's emissions in the 2016 control period), (3)
various adjustments to the unit's maximum allocation, many of which are
necessary only if the NUSA pool is

oversubscribed, and (4) the preliminary calculation of the unit's
first-round 2017 NUSA allowance allocation.
    Each state worksheet also contains a summary showing (1) the
quantity of allowances initially available in that state's 2017 NUSA,
(2) the sum of the first-round 2017 NUSA allowance allocations that
will be made to new units in that state, assuming there are no
corrections to the data, and (3) the quantity of allowances that would
remain in the 2017 NUSA for use in second-round allocations to new
units (or ultimately for allocation to existing units), again assuming
there are no corrections to the data.
    Objections should be strictly limited to the data and calculations
upon which the NUSA allowance allocations are based and should be
emailed to the address identified in ADDRESSES. Objections must
include: (1) Precise identification of the specific data and/or
calculations the commenter believes are inaccurate, (2) new proposed
data and/or calculations upon which the commenter believes EPA should
rely instead to determine allowance allocations, and (3) the reasons
why EPA should rely on the commenter's proposed data and/or
calculations and not the data referenced in this notice.
    EPA notes that an allocation or lack of allocation of allowances to
a given unit does not constitute a determination that CSAPR does or
does not apply to the unit. EPA also notes that allocations are subject
to potential correction.

    Authority: 40 CFR 97.411(b), 97.511(b), 97.611(b), 97.711(b),
and 97.811(b).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 18, 2008, the Maryland Department
of the Environment (MDE) submitted revisions to its SIP (Maryland SIP
08-02) regarding the control of VOC emissions from PTFE
operations (amending Regulation .30 under COMAR 26.11.19) and from
adhesives and sealants operations (adding Regulations .01-.07 under a
new chapter, COMAR 26.11.35). On May 28, 2009, MDE submitted another
revision to its SIP (Maryland SIP 09-01) amending Regulation
.01 under COMAR 26.11.35. In addition, on April 23, 2010, EPA received
a SIP revision (Maryland SIP 10-06) amending the control of
VOC emissions from paint, resin, and adhesive manufacturing and
adhesive and sealant application (Regulations .15A and .15C(4) under
COMAR 26.11.19).
    The SIP revisions consist of the following:

A. Amendments to Regulation .30, Control of Volatile Organic Compounds
From Chemical Production and Polytetrafluoroethylene Operations Under
COMAR 26.11.19 (Volatile Organic Compounds From Specific Processes)

    COMAR <IP_ADDRESS> (Control of Volatile Organic Compounds from
Chemical Production and Polytetrafluoroethylene Operations) is in the
Maryland SIP. (See 40 CFR 52.1070(c) and 68 FR 33000, June 3, 2003).
COMAR <IP_ADDRESS> sets reasonably available control technology (RACT)
for: (1) Organic chemical installations which are process equipment
that operate independently or in combination with other equipment
reactors, distillation columns, evaporators, strippers and other
similar

chemical processing equipment to produce a single chemical intermediate
or final product; (2) process equipment for the production of inorganic
chemicals when associated with drying or product treatment equipment
that involves the use of VOCs; and (3) installations that treat PTFE so
that its shape or form is permanently changed and that result in VOC
emissions into the air but excluding installations that apply a coating
to PTFE or a PTFE product.
    The amendments change the definition of PTFE to fluoropolymer
material (FPM), and therefore replacing PTFE to FPM throughout COMAR
<IP_ADDRESS>. The amendments also specify that a person who owns or
operates an installation subject to the requirements of COMAR
<IP_ADDRESS> will not be subject to COMAR 26.11.35 (Control of VOC
Emissions from Adhesives and Sealants) provided that monthly records
are maintained which demonstrate that VOC emissions from the
application of all adhesives, sealants, adhesive primers, and sealant
primers do not exceed 400 pounds per year; and adhesive manufacturing
does not exceed 200 pounds per year.

B. Addition of COMAR 26.11.35 (Control of VOC Emissions From Adhesives
and Sealants)

    The Ozone Transport Commission (OTC) States developed a Model Rule
``OTC Model Rule For Adhesives and Sealants'' dated 2006 which was
based on the 1998 California Air Resources Board (CARB) RACT
determination. This RACT determination applied to both the manufacture
and use of adhesives, sealants, adhesive primers or sealant primers, in
both industrial and manufacturing facilities and in the field.
California Air Districts used this determination to develop regulations
for this category. EPA addressed this source category with a Control
Techniques Guideline (CTG) document for Miscellaneous Industrial
Adhesives dated September 2008. This CTG was developed in response to
section 183(e) of the CAA requirement for EPA to study and regulate
consumer and commercial products, which is included in EPA's Report to
Congress, ``Study of Volatile Organic Compound Emissions from Consumer
and Commercial Products--Comprehensive Emissions Inventory.'' The
section 183(e) miscellaneous industrial adhesives category was limited
to adhesives and adhesive primers used in industrial and manufacturing
operations and did not include products applied in the field.
Therefore, the OTC Model Rule and State efforts in developing
individual regulations preceded EPA's CTG for this source category and
were broader in applicability.
    The new Chapter COMAR 26.11.35 adds new regulations that: (a) Set
standards for the application of adhesives, sealants, adhesive primers,
and sealant primers by providing options for appliers either to use a
product with a VOC content equal to or less than a specified limit or
to use add-on controls; (b) establish standards for cleanup solvents;
(c) establish a VOC limit for surface preparation solvents; (d) provide
for an alternative add-on control system requirement of at least 85
percent overall control efficiency (capture and destruction), by
weight; (e) provide exemptions for certain operations such as medical
and defense equipment manufacturing and for small containers; (f)
require simplified records of materials used and VOC content to be
maintained for 5 years, with more detailed records required for
noncompliant products on material usage from persons who qualify for
exemptions; (g) require that VOC-containing materials must be stored or
disposed of in closed containers; (h) content limits; (i) require
manufacturers to label containers with the maximum VOC content as
supplied, as well as the maximum VOC content on an as-applied basis
when used in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding thinning, reducing, or mixing with any other VOC containing
material; and (j) prohibit the specification of any adhesive, primer,
or sealant that violates the provisions of the proposed regulations.

C. Amendments to Regulation .01 Under COMAR 26.11.35

    These amendments exempt single-ply roof membrane installation and
repair adhesives, single-ply roof membrane sealants, and single-ply
roof membrane adhesive primers from standards for VOC content during
non-ozone seasons for the years 2009, 2010 and 2011. In 2012, the
standards for VOC content for these materials are applicable throughout
the year.

D. Amendments to Regulation .15 (Paint, Resin, and Adhesive
Manufacturing and Adhesive and Sealant Application) Under COMAR
26.11.19, Regulations .15A and .15C(4)

    The following definitions were added to Regulation .15A: sealant,
sealant application, and specialty electronic systems and subsystems
for defense and homeland security. Amendments to Regulation .15C(4)
repeal the general emission standard for adhesives, and establishes a
RACT emission limitation for specialty electronic systems and
subsystems for defense and homeland security. The amendments limit the
discharge into the atmosphere to not more than 25 pounds per day of VOC
from adhesive and sealant application, averaged over a monthly period.
    A detailed summary of EPA's review of and rationale for proposing
to approve this SIP revision may be found in the Technical Support
Document (TSD) for this action which is available on line at http://www.regulations.gov, Docket numbers EPA-R03-OAR-2011-0491 and EPA-R03-
OAR-2011-0570.

III. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve the Maryland SIP revision amending
COMAR <IP_ADDRESS> ``Control of Volatile Organic Compounds from Chemical
Production and Polytetrafluoroethylene Operations'' and adding COMAR
26.11.35 ``Control of VOC Emissions from Adhesives and Sealants.'' EPA
is also proposing to approve the Maryland SIP revisions amending
Regulation .01 under COMAR 26.11.35 and Regulations .15A and .15C(4)
under COMAR <IP_ADDRESS> ``Paint, Resin, and Adhesive Manufacturing and
Adhesive and Sealant Application.'' EPA is soliciting public comments
on the issues discussed in this document. These comments will be
considered before taking final action.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA and applicable
Federal regulations. 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. Accordingly, this
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 Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     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).
    In addition, this proposed rule, pertaining to Maryland's control
of VOCs from adhesives and sealants, does not have Tribal implications
as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law.

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 the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission's environmental review process.
Environmental commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court
review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit an original and 5 copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington,
DC 20426.

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2016-0711; FRL-9981-91--Region 9]

Approval of California Air Plan Revision, South Coast Air Quality
Management District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve a revision to the South Coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD) portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP).
This revision concerns emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
from architectural coatings. We are proposing to approve a local rule
to regulate emissions from architectural coatings under the Clean Air
Act (CAA or the Act). We are taking comments on this proposal and plan
to follow with a final action.

DATES: Any comments must arrive by September 7, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R09-
OAR-2016-0711 at http://www.regulations.gov. For comments submitted at
Regulations.gov, follow the online instructions for submitting
comments. Once submitted, comments cannot be removed or edited from
Regulations.gov. For either manner of submission, the EPA may publish
any comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically
any information you consider to be Confidential Business Information
(CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA
will generally not consider comments or comment contents located
outside of the primary submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or other
file sharing system). For additional submission methods, please contact
the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rule addressed by this action with the date that
it was adopted by the local air agency and submitted by the California
Air Resources Board (CARB). On February 22, 2018, CARB requested the
withdrawal from its earlier SIP submittal of one sentence from two
definitions (``Bond Breakers'' and ``Form Release Compounds''), which
exempted these materials from the rule, due to the adoption of a rule
regulating these materials. Accordingly, our proposed approval of this
rule does not include the two withdrawn sentences.

                                             Table 1--Submitted Rule
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
             Local agency                  Rule No.            Rule title             Amended        Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCAQMD................................            1113  Architectural Coatings..        2/5/2016       8/22/2016
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 27, 2016, the EPA determined that the submittal for
SCAQMD Rule 1113 met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR part 51
Appendix V, which must be met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    We approved an earlier version of SCAQMD Rule 1113 into the SIP on
March 26, 2013 (78 FR 18244).

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule revision?

    VOCs contribute to the production of ground-level ozone, smog, and
particulate matter, which harm human health and the environment.
Section 110(a) of the CAA requires states to submit regulations that
control VOC emissions. Architectural coatings are applied to stationary
structures and their accessories. They include house paints, stains,
industrial maintenance coatings, traffic coatings, and many other
products. VOCs are emitted from the coatings during application and
curing, and from the associated solvents used for thinning and clean-
up. SCAQMD Rule 1113 controls VOC emissions by establishing VOC limits
on architectural coatings. SCAQMD Rule 1113 was revised to increase
stringency and reduce VOC emissions by updating VOC content limits, and
restricting the small container exemption (less than 1 quart) for high-
VOC coatings.
    The EPA's technical support document (TSD) has more information
about this rule.

II. The EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is the EPA evaluating the rule?

    SIP rules must be enforceable (see CAA section 110(a)(2)), must not
interfere with applicable requirements concerning attainment and
reasonable further progress or other CAA requirements (see CAA section
110(l)), and must not modify certain SIP control requirements in
nonattainment areas without ensuring equivalent or greater emissions
reductions (see CAA section 193).
    Generally, SIP rules must require Reasonably Available Control
Technology (RACT) for each category of sources covered by a Control
Techniques Guidelines (CTG) document as well as each major source of
VOCs in ozone nonattainment areas classified as Moderate or above (see
CAA section 182(b)(2)). The SCAQMD has been designated as Extreme
nonattainment for the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS (40 CFR 81.305). As
addressed further in the EPA's TSD for this rule, there are no relevant
EPA CTG documents and architectural coatings are considered area
sources. Therefore, architectural coating sources are not subject to
RACT requirements.
    Guidance and policy documents that we use to evaluate
enforceability, revision/relaxation, and rule stringency include the
following:
    1. ``State Implementation Plans; General Preamble for the
Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,''
(57 FR 13498, April 16, 1992 and 57 FR 18070, April 28, 1992).
    2. ``Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and
Deviations'' (``the Bluebook,'' U.S. EPA, May 25, 1988; revised January
11, 1990).
    3. ``Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies'' (``the Little Bluebook'', EPA Region 9, August 21,
2001).
    4. National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for
Architectural Coatings, 40 CFR 59.400, Subpart D, Table 1, VOC Content
Limits for Architectural Coatings.

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    We believe this rule is consistent with CAA requirements and
relevant guidance regarding enforceability, stringency, and SIP
revisions. The TSD has more information on our evaluation.

C. Public Comment and Proposed Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA proposes to
fully approve the submitted rule because we believe it fulfills all
relevant requirements. We will accept comments from the public on this
proposal until September 7, 2018. If we take final action to approve
the submitted rule, our final action will incorporate this rule into
the federally enforceable SIP.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule,
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference the SCAQMD rule described in Table 1 of this preamble. The
EPA has made, and will continue to make, these materials available
through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office (please
contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section of this preamble for more information).

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable

federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act. Accordingly,
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);
     Is not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 2,
2017) regulatory action because SIP approvals are exempted under
Executive Order 12866;
     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 Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide the EPA with the discretionary authority
to address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000).

intended to reduce the incidence of crashes and injuries resulting from
theft, accidental rollaway of motor vehicles, inability to deactivate
the vehicle propulsion system and inadvertently leaving the system
activated.
    S2. Purpose. The purpose of this standard is to decrease the
likelihood that a vehicle is stolen, is accidentally set in motion,
cannot be stopped during a panic situation, or is shut down without the
gear in the ``park'' position or without deactivating the vehicle
propulsion system.
* * * * *
    S4. Definitions.
* * * * *
    Key means a physical device or an electronic code which, when
inserted into the starting system (by physical or electronic means),
enables the vehicle operator to activate the engine, motor or other
system that provides propulsion to the motor vehicle.
    Key code carrying device means a physical device which is capable
of electronically transmitting the key code to the vehicle starting
system without physical connection (other than its presence in the
vehicle) between the device and the vehicle.
* * * * *
    Starting system means the vehicle system used in conjunction with
the key to activate the engine, motor or other system which provides
propulsion to the motor vehicle.
    Stop control means the device used by the driver to deactivate the
engine, motor or other system which provides propulsion to the motor
vehicle.
* * * * *
    S5. Requirements. Each vehicle subject to this standard must meet
the

requirements of S5.1 through S5.5. * * *
* * * * *
    S5.1.3 * * *

    (b) The propulsion system must shut off within 1 second after the
control is first pressed.
    (c) Restarting the propulsion system after it has been stopped, but
the vehicle is still moving at more than 15 km/h (9.3 mph), is
permitted only by means of actuating the control used by the driver to
start the propulsion system.
    S5.4.2 Warnings to driver exiting a vehicle with the gear selection
control not in ``park,'' for vehicles equipped with a ``park''
position.
    S<IP_ADDRESS>. Motor vehicles whose transmissions have a ``park''
position and whose starting system is accessed by electronic key codes
without any physical connection between the key and the vehicle shall
meet the requirements of S<IP_ADDRESS> and S<IP_ADDRESS>.
    S<IP_ADDRESS> When tested in accordance with S6.3.1, an audible alert of
no less than 85dBA between 500-3000 Hz must sound when the driver
actuates the stop control while the gear selection control is not in
``park'' and the vehicle is moving at less than 15 km/h (9.3 mph). This
alert must continue until the gear selection control is placed in
``park''. The gear selection control must be movable to the ``park''
position without the restarting of the propulsion system.
    S<IP_ADDRESS>. When tested in accordance with S6.3.2, an audible alert
of no less than 85dBA between 500-3000 Hz, measured outside the
vehicle, must sound when the door located closest to the driver's
designated seating position is opened while the gear selection control
is not in ``park'', the vehicle is moving at less than 15 km/h (9.3
mph), and the key code carrying device is not present in the vehicle.
This alert must sound for 1 minute or until the gear selection control
is moved to ``park,'' whichever occurs first. This alert is not
required to sound if the transmission becomes locked in ``park'' as a
direct result of key removal upon door opening, or upon removal of the

site visit review report for the firm (see Sec.  26.83(c)(1)), any
updates to the site visit review, and any evaluation of the firm based
on the site visit. As State A, you must transmit this information to
State B within seven days of receiving the request. A pattern by State
B of not making such requests in a timely manner or by ``State A'' or
any other State of not complying with such requests in a timely manner
is noncompliance with this Part.
    (2) Determine whether there is good cause to believe that State A's
certification of the firm is erroneous or should not apply in your
State. Reasons for making such a determination may include the
following:
    (i) Evidence that State A's certification was obtained by fraud;
    (ii) New information, not available to State A at the time of its
certification, showing that the firm does not meet all eligibility
criteria;
    (iii) State A's certification was factually erroneous or was
inconsistent with the requirements of this part;
    (iv) The State law of State B requires a result different from that
of the State law of State A.
    (v) The information provided by the applicant firm did not meet the
requirements of paragraph (c) of this section.
    (3) If, as State B, unless you have determined that there is good
cause to believe that State A's certification is erroneous or should
not apply in your State, you must, no later than 60 days from the date
on which you received from the applicant firm all the information
required by paragraph (c) of this section, send to the applicant firm a
notice that it is certified and place the firm on your directory of
certified firms.
    (4) If, as State B, you have determined that there is good cause to
believe that State A's certification is erroneous or should not apply
in your State, you

must, no later than 60 days from the date on which you received from
the applicant firm all the information required by paragraph (c) of
this section, send to the applicant firm a notice stating the reasons
for your determination.
    (i) This notice must state with particularity the specific reasons
why State B believes that the firm does not meet the requirements of
this Part for DBE eligibility and must offer the firm an opportunity to
respond to State B with respect to these reasons.
    (ii) The firm may elect to respond in writing, to request an in-
person meeting with State B's decision maker to discuss State B's
objections to the firm's eligibility, or both. If the firm requests a
meeting, as State B you must schedule the meeting to take place within
30 days of receiving the firm's request.
    (iii) The firm bears the burden of demonstrating, by a
preponderance of evidence, that it meets the requirements of this Part
with respect to the particularized issues raised by State B's notice.
The firm is not otherwise responsible for further demonstrating its
eligibility to State B.
    (iv) The decision maker for State B must be an individual who is
thoroughly familiar with the provisions of this Part concerning
certification.
    (v) State B must issue a written decision within 30 days of the
receipt of the written response from the firm or the meeting with the
decision maker, whichever is later.
    (vi) The firm's application for certification is stayed pending the
outcome of this process.
    (vii) A decision under this paragraph (d)(4) may be appealed to the
Departmental Office of Civil Rights under sSec.  26.89 of this part.
    (e) As State B, if you have not received from State A a copy of the
site visit review report by a date 14 days after you have made a timely
request for it, you may hold action required by paragraphs (d)(2)
through (4) of this section in abeyance pending receipt of the site
visit review report. In this event, you must, no later than 30 days
from the date on which you received from an applicant firm all the
information required by paragraph (c) of this section, notify the firm
in writing of the delay in the process and the reason for it.
    (f)(1) As a UCP, when you deny a firm's application, reject the
application of a firm certified in State A or any other State in which
the firm is certified, through the procedures of paragraph (d)(4) of
this section, or decertify a firm, in whole or in part, you must make
an entry in the Department of Transportation Office of Civil Rights'
(DOCR's) Ineligibility Determination Online Database. You must enter
the following information:
    (i) The name of the firm;
    (ii) The name(s) of the firm's owner(s);
    (iii) The type and date of the action;
    (iv) The reason for the action.
    (2) As a UCP, you must check the DOCR Web site at least once every
month to determine whether any firm that is applying to you for
certification or that you have already certified is on the list.
    (3) For any such firm that is on the list, you must promptly
request a copy of the listed decision from the UCP that made it. As the
UCP receiving such a request, you must provide a copy of the decision
to the requesting UCP within 7 days of receiving the request. As the
UCP receiving the decision, you must then consider the information in
the decision in determining what, if any, action to take with respect
to the certified DBE firm or applicant.

29 CFR Part 1926

[Docket No. OSHA-2007-0026]
RIN 1218-AB47

Confined Spaces in Construction; Approval of Collections of
Information

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
Department of Labor.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule is a technical amendment revising OSHA's regulations
to reflect the approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) of
the collections of information contained in OSHA's standard for
Confined Spaces in Construction.

DATES: Effective August 12, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Todd Owen, OSHA, Directorate of
Standards and Guidance, Room N-3609, U.S. Department of Labor, 200
Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20210; telephone (202) 693-
2222.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OSHA published a final rule for Confined
Spaces in Construction on May 4, 2015 (80 FR 25365) to provide new
protections to employees working in confined spaces in construction.
This new subpart replaced OSHA's general training requirement for work
in confined spaces (29 CFR 1926.21(b)(6)) with a comprehensive
standard. The new standard includes a permit program designed to
protect employees from exposure to many hazards associated with work in
confined spaces, including atmospheric and physical hazards. Those
requirements contained collections of information approved by OMB under
control number 1218-0258, which OSHA publicized in the Federal Register
document announcing the new rule (see 80 FR 22514-22517). This
technical amendment codifies the OMB control number for the Confined
Spaces in Construction standard into Sec.  1926.5, which is the central
section in which OSHA displays its approved collections under the
Paperwork Reduction Act.
    Additional opportunity for public comment on this rule is
unnecessary because the public has already had the opportunity to
comment on the collections of information and OMB has approved them.
This revision of Sec.  1926.5 is a purely technical step to increase
public awareness of OMB's approval of the collections of information.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Sunshine Act Meeting

    Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of the
Government in the Sunshine Act, Public Law 94-409, that the Securities
and Exchange Commission will hold an Open Meeting on Monday, March 7,
2016, at 3:30 p.m., in the Auditorium (L-002) at the Commission's
headquarters building, to hear oral argument in an appeal from an
initial decision of an administrative law judge by respondents J.S.
Oliver Capital Management, L.P. (``J.S. Oliver''), and Ian O. Mausner
(``Mausner'').
    On August 5, 2014, the law judge found that, beginning in 2008,
J.S. Oliver, a registered investment adviser, and Mausner, its
principal, violated antifraud provisions of the securities laws by
cherry picking profitable trades for favored accounts and by failing to
disclose uses of soft dollar commissions to their clients. The initial
decision also found related compliance and recordkeeping violations.
For their violations, the law judge barred Mausner from the securities
industry, revoked J.S. Oliver's investment adviser registration, issued
cease-and-desist orders against them, and ordered respondents to
disgorge $1,376,440. The law judge also imposed civil money penalties
of $3,040,000 on Mauser and $14,975,000 on J.S. Oliver.
    Respondents appealed the civil money penalties imposed in the
initial decision. The oral argument is likely to address what
penalties, if any, are appropriate in the public interest. Also likely
to be considered at oral argument is whether these administrative
proceedings violate the U.S. Constitution.
    For further information, please contact the Office of the Secretary
at<PHONE_NUMBER>.

     Dated: February 29, 2016.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC
20549-0213.

Extension:
    Rule 206(3)-2, SEC File No. 270-216, OMB Control No. 3235-0243.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the
collection of information summarized below. The Commission plans to
submit this existing collection of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension and approval.
    Rule 206(3)-2, (17 CFR 275.206(3)-2) which is entitled ``Agency
Cross Transactions for Advisory Clients,'' permits investment advisers
to comply with section 206(3) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940
(the ``Act'') (15 U.S.C. 80b-6(3)) by obtaining a client's blanket
consent to enter into agency cross transactions (i.e., a transaction in
which an adviser acts as a broker to both the advisory client and the
opposite party to the transaction), provided that certain disclosures
are made to the client. Rule 206(3)-2 applies to all registered
investment advisers. In relying on the rule, investment advisers must
provide certain disclosures to their clients. Advisory clients can use
the disclosures to monitor agency cross transactions that affect their
advisory account. The Commission also uses the information required by
Rule 206(3)-2 in connection with its investment adviser inspection
program to ensure that advisers are in compliance with the rule.
Without the information collected under the rule, advisory clients
would not have information necessary for monitoring their adviser's
handling of their accounts and the Commission would be less efficient
and effective in its inspection program.
    The information requirements of the rule consist of the following:
(1) Prior to obtaining the client's consent appropriate disclosure must
be made to the client as to the practice of, and the conflicts of
interest involved in, agency cross transactions; (2) at or before the
completion of any such transaction the client must be furnished with a
written confirmation containing specified information and offering to
furnish upon request certain additional information; and (3) at least
annually, the client must be furnished with a written statement or
summary as to the total number of transactions during the period
covered by the consent and the total amount of commissions received by
the adviser or its affiliated broker-dealer attributable to such
transactions.
    The Commission estimates that approximately 550 respondents use the
rule annually, necessitating about 32 responses per respondent each
year, for a total of 17,600 responses. Each response requires an
estimated 0.5 hours, for a total of 8,800 hours. The estimated average
burden hours are made solely for the purposes of the Paperwork
Reduction Act and are not derived from a comprehensive or
representative survey or study of the cost of Commission rules and
forms.
    This collection of information is found at (17 CFR 275.206(3)-2)
and is necessary in order for the investment adviser to obtain the
benefits of Rule 206(3)-2. The collection of information requirements
under the rule is mandatory. Information subject to the disclosure
requirements of Rule 206(3)-2 does not require submission to the
Commission; and, accordingly, the disclosure pursuant to the rule is
not kept confidential. Commission-registered investment advisers are
required to maintain and preserve certain information required under
Rule 206(3)-2 for five (5) years. The long-term retention of these
records is necessary for the Commission's inspection program to
ascertain compliance with the Advisers Act.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within sixty 60 days of this publication.
    Please direct your written comments to Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi
Pavlik-Simon, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312; or send an
email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
