BILLING CODE 6560– 50– P CORPORATION FOR NATIONAL AND COMMUNITY SERVICE 45 CFR Parts 2510, 2520, 2521, 2522, 2524, 2525, 2526, 2528, and 2550 RIN 3045– AA32 AmeriCorps Grant Regulations AGENCY: Corporation for National and Community Service.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Corporation for National and Community Service (hereinafter the `` Corporation'') is amending several provisions relating to the AmeriCorps national service program, including requirements for AmeriCorps grants and rules on how AmeriCorps members may use the AmeriCorps education award. This final rule will eliminate several unnecessary and burdensome requirements in the AmeriCorps grants program, and conform the Corporation's regulations to changes in law.

DATES: The amendments are effective August 8, 2002. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gary Kowalczyk, Coordinator of National Service Programs, Corporation for National and Community Service, (202) 606– 5000, ext. 340. T. D. D. (202) 565– 2799. This is not a toll free number. This final rule may be requested in an alternative format for persons with visual impairments. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background Pursuant to the National and Community Service Act of 1990, as amended (42 U. S. C. 12501 et seq.), the Corporation makes grants to support service performed by AmeriCorps members. In addition, the Corporation, through the National Service Trust, provides education awards and certain interest payments to AmeriCorps members who successfully complete a term of service in an approved national service position. The Corporation published a proposed rule on March 26, 2002 (67 FR 13738) with the goal of eliminating several unnecessary and burdensome requirements in the AmeriCorps grants program, and conforming the Corporation's regulations to changes in law.

Discussion of the Final Rule The Corporation received comments from nine individuals and organizations in response to the proposed rule. As a general matter, only one of the comments the Corporation received resulted in a change to the proposed rule. Consequently, other than § 2520.30, the final rule is identical to the proposed rule as published on March 26, 2002.

Flexibility in Types of AmeriCorps Activities One commenter specifically approved of the Corporation's proposal to broaden the circumstances under which AmeriCorps members may engage in activities that provide an indirect benefit to their community. The Corporation may approve such activities with respect to disaster relief, homeland defense, and other compelling community needs.

Eligibility of Religious Organizations for AmeriCorps Grants Two commenters specifically endorsed the Corporation's references to religious organizations in several lists of types of organizations eligible to apply for AmeriCorps grants. A basic purpose of these amendments is to clarify that religious organizations are eligible on the same basis as any other private nonprofit organization to apply for AmeriCorps grants and operate AmeriCorps programs.

Elimination of `` Six Month Rule'' Five commenters wrote in support of eliminating the `` six month rule. '' The final rule, thus, eliminates a requirement under which grantees could not select any prospective AmeriCorps member who is or was previously employed by a prospective project sponsor within six months of the member's enrollment in the program. The commenters agreed that there are more effective and efficient ways to ensure that grantees are complying with rules against displacement, without imposing a blanket `` six month rule. '' By continuing to require grantees to show how a proposed project will address unmet needs and by enforcing existing rules against displacement, the Corporation can ensure that any former employees enrolled as AmeriCorps members will perform service that goes well beyond— in both degree and kind— their former job duties.

Use of Education Award for Educational Courses Offered by Title IV Institutions of Higher Education Three commenters supported the Corporation's expansion of the use of the education award to allow AmeriCorps members to use their education award to pay any current educational expenses at institutions of higher education that have entered into program participation agreements with the U. S. Department of Education under Title IV of the Higher Education Act (HEA).

Refunds to the National Service Trust The Corporation received no comments relating to the proposed rule on refunds to the National Service Trust.

Declaration Sufficient Documentation of Member's Attainment of High School Diploma Three commenters specifically supported the Corporation's proposal to allow self declaration as sufficient documentation of a member's attainment of a high school diploma or its equivalent. The final rule provides that an individual's written declaration under penalty of law is sufficient to establish this element of eligibility without additional documentation. One commenter suggested that the Corporation replace the current regulations relating to documentation of citizenship, nationality, and lawful permanent resident alien status by authorizing grantees to use the I– 9 to document eligibility for AmeriCorps.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP10-76-000]

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application

March 15, 2010.
    Take notice that on March 5, 2010, Eastern Shore Natural Gas
Company, (Eastern Shore), 1110 Forrest Avenue, Dover, Delaware 19904,
pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), as amended, and
Part 157 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
Regulations, filed in Docket No. CP10-76-000, an application to
construct and operate certain pipeline and ancillary facilities, with
appurtenances, located in the State of Pennsylvania. Eastern Shore
states that it proposes to: (1) Construct and operate approximately 8.3
miles of sixteen-inch mainline extension in the State of Pennsylvania,
and (2) construct and operate a new interconnect receipt point. Eastern
Shore states that such facilities are necessary to provide new firm
transportation service to customers that have executed binding shipper
nominations in conjunction with Eastern Shore's recent Open Season
(Mainline Extension Interconnect with Texas Eastern Transmission, LP,
Project), which offered its customers the opportunity for new natural
gas supplies and supply diversification by accessing the Texas Eastern
Transmission, LP (Texas Eastern) pipeline system in southeastern
Pennsylvania. Eastern Shore estimates the cost of the facilities will
be $19,406,974, all as more fully set forth in the application, which
is on file with

the Commission and open to public inspection. 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, contact FERC at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call toll-free,<PHONE_NUMBER> or TTY,
(202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding the application should be directed to Glen
DiEleuterio, Project Manager, Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company, 1110
Forrest Avenue, Dover, Delaware 19904, at<PHONE_NUMBER>, ext. 6723 or
via fax<PHONE_NUMBER> or by e-mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify Federal and State agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all Federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to 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 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2016-0286]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone; Allegheny River Mile 44.1 to 45.1, Kittanning,
Pennsylvania

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary safety zone
for all navigable waters of the Allegheny River mile 44.1 to mile 45.1.
This action is needed to protect personnel, spectators, participants,
and vessels from potential hazards associated with boat races. Access
to this safety zone would be limited to those participating in or
working with the race sponsors unless specifically authorized by the
Captain of the Pittsburgh 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 June 20, 2016.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2016-0287 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    On March 24, 2016, the Three Rivers Outboard Racing Association
notified the Coast Guard that it will be conducting boat races from
9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily beginning on August 19, 2016 and through
August 21, 2016. The boat races are scheduled to take place on the
Allegheny River from mile 44.1 to 45.1. The purpose of this rulemaking
is to ensure the safety of vessels, participants, race spectators, and
those working in the boat racing event. The Coast Guard proposes this
rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The COTP proposes to establish a safety zone from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00
p.m. daily beginning on August 19, 2016 and through August 21, 2016.
The safety zone would cover all navigable waters of the Allegheny River
from mile 44.1 to mile 45.1. The duration of the zone is intended to
ensure the safety of vessels, participants, race spectators, and those
working the boat racing event on navigable waters. Access to this
safety zone would be limited to those participating in or working with
the race sponsors. No other 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 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing
rules, and of promoting flexibility. 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.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration, of the safety zone and the low traffic nature
of this area. The safety zone will close a small section of the
Allegheny River for ten hours a day for three days; however, there is
little traffic in the area. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a
Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the
zone, and the rule would allow other waterway users to seek permission
to enter the zone. Requests to transit the safety zone area would be
considered on a case-by-case basis.

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
IV. A. above this proposed rule would 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 (Public Law 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 lasting less than two hours that would prohibit entry into the
safety zone. Normally such actions are categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant
Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary environmental analysis checklist
and Categorical Exclusion Determination are 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.

    On May 23, 2016, the FAA determined that the request to release
property at Ralph Wenz Field submitted by The Town of Pinedale meets
the procedural requirements of the FAA. The FAA may approve the
request, in whole or in part, no later than July 6, 2016.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    The Town of Pinedale, Wyoming, is proposing the release from the
terms, conditions, reservations, and restrictions on a 0.76 acre parcel
of property acquired by the Town of Pinedale on November 9, 2004, with
the assistance of Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Grant No. 3-56-
0021-11. This parcel is outside of the Runway Protection Zone and is
considered a non-economic remnant. The parcel in question has been part
of a long-standing lawsuit regarding a property line dispute with the
adjacent landowners. A settlement has been reviewed and approved by the
district court to deed this parcel of land back to the adjacent
landowners. As the property was purchased with AIP funds, the fair
market value of the property will be reinvested in future AIP eligible
projects and will be used to offset future AIP grants.
    Any person may inspect, by appointment, the request in person at
the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
    In addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect
the application, notice and other documents germane to the application
in person at Ralph Wenz Field.

EPA has provided the Docket Office for docket number EPA-HQ-OAR-2021-0668, a zip file containing the files used in generating the EJ exposure analysis completed using BenMAP-CE as part of the Regulatory Impact Analysis for the final Good Neighbor Plan. The assessment was completed using BenMAP-CE version <IP_ADDRESS>. Population-weighted exposure and mortality rate estimates can be reproduced either by performing individual parameterized runs for a given air quality scenario using the BenMAP graphical user interface (GUI) or performing batch runs using scripts. However, the latter method is recommended.
BenMAP runs were batch processed using command line and a written script. The full set of estimates can be reproduced using the automation script files available in the docket materials, which can be run from the command prompt using the input air quality surface files. See Appendix L of the BenMAP manual for additional details on running BenMAP through the command line and the Estimating PM2.5- and Ozone-Attributable Health Benefits Technical Support Document (TSD) for additional information of selection of health endpoints and concentration-response relationships.
Standard BenMAP folders are included in the docket materials, described below. Script files can be reviewed and modified in a text editor such as Notepad++, which includes comments preceded by "#". Two script files were used for this analysis.:
 "2015_Final_GNP_Ozone_2023&2026_EJ_exposure.ctlx" produces the county- and national-level aggregated and distributional exposure results
 "2015_Final_GNP_PM_2026_EJ_exposure.ctlx" produces the county- and national-level aggregated and distributional health impact (i.e., mortality rate) results, and

Prior to running the script from the command line, several subdirectory pointers within the automation code must be set to where the user has placed the input files and results directories for outputs. Imbedded notes within the automation code highlight the pointers which must be updated, which appear near the beginning of the script files. Once pointers have been updated and the required input files have been placed in the appropriate subdirectories (see below), then the script run is initiated with the below commands from the command prompt:
 Direct the command line prompt to the location where the BenMAP program is located (e.g., "cd\program files (x86)\BenMAP-CE") and hit Enter
 Direct the command line prompt to the script file (e.g., start/wait "" "C:\program files (x86)\benmap-ce\benmap.exe" "C:\[INSERT FILE LOCATION}\ 2015_Final_GNP_Ozone_2023&2026_EJ_exposure.ctlx")

In order to run the automated scripts, make sure that the following subdirectories have been created, include the necessary input files, and the scripts have been edited to their location:

 "Inputs" Containing the air quality grid .csv (or .xlsx) files
 "AQG" Will be the location of output .aqgx air quality gridded surface files
 "CFG" Containing the BenMAP configuration file used as the basis for generating risk estimates, e.g., 2026_Ozone_exposure.cfgx
 "APV" Contains BenMAP aggregation and pooling file which allows .apvx and .cfgrx reports containing the risk estimates to be generated, e.g., 2023_Ozone_exposure.apvx
 "Reports" Will be the location of exposure output .csv files. Please add this folder to your intended file location.
 "Results" Will be the location of exposure output .cfgrx and .apvrx files. Please add this folder to your intended file location.
