•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);

•is not a significant regulatory action 
subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR

•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, 
related to Maryland’s administrative processes for preconstruction permitting, 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.

National Emission Standards for 
Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry: Alternative Monitoring Method 
AGENCY : Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA). 
ACTION : Proposed rule. 
SUMMARY : The Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA) is proposing to amend the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Portland Cement Manufacturing Industry. In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this issue of the Federal Register, we are publishing a direct final rule, without a prior proposed rule, that temporarily revises the testing and monitoring requirements for hydrochloric acid (HCl) due to the current unavailability of HCl calibration gases used for quality assurance purposes. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule. 
DATES : Written comments must be 
received by July 3, 2017. 
ADDRESSES : Submit your comments, 
identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– OAR–2016–0442, at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot be edited or removed from Regulations.gov. 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, the full EPA public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, and general guidance on making effective comments, please visit http://www2.epa.gov/dockets/ commenting-epa-dockets.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
I. Why is the EPA issuing this proposed rule? 
This document proposes to take 
action on amendments to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Pollutants From the Portland Cement 
Manufacturing Industry. We have published a direct final rule to amend 40 CFR part 63, subpart LLL, by revising the testing and monitoring requirements for HCl in the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this issue of the Federal Register because we view this as a 
noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule. 
If we receive no adverse comment, we 
will not take further action on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment on a distinct portion of the direct final rule, we will withdraw that portion of the rule and it will not take effect. In this instance, we would address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. 
If we receive adverse comment on a 
distinct provision of the direct final rule, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register indicating which provisions we are withdrawing. The provisions that are not withdrawn will become effective on the date set out in the direct final rule, notwithstanding adverse comment on any other provision. We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. 
The regulatory text for this proposal is 
identical to that for the direct final rule published in the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this issue of the Federal Register. For further supplementary information, the detailed rationale for this proposal and the regulatory revisions, see the direct final rule published in the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this issue of the Federal Register.

Agency for International Development Acquisition Regulation (AIDAR): Agency Warrant Program for Individual Cooperating Country National Personal Services Contractors (CCNPSCs) 
AGENCY : U.S. Agency for International 
Development. 
ACTION : Proposed rule; withdrawal. 
SUMMARY : The U.S. Agency for 
International Development (USAID) has decided not to implement the Agency Warrant Program for individual Cooperating Country National Personal Services Contractors and is therefore withdrawing the August 19, 2016 proposed rule amending the Agency for International Development Acquisition Regulation (AIDAR) to incorporate this warrant program into the regulation. 
DATES : USAID is withdrawing the 
proposed rule published on August 19, 2016 (81 FR 55405) as of June 23, 2017. 
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : 
Lyudmila Bond, Telephone: 202–567– 4753 or Email: lbond@usaid.gov. 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : On August 
19, 2016 USAID published a proposed rule at 81 FR 55405 revising the Agency for International Development Acquisition Regulation (AIDAR) to incorporate USAID Cooperating Country National Warrant Program into the regulation. The warrant program was intended to address a shortage of U.S. direct-hire contracting officers by delegating limited contracting officer authorities to a select number of Cooperating Country National Personal Services Contractors. 
The purpose of this rule withdrawal 
is to inform the public that USAID will not be publishing a final rule to implement this warrant program.

AGENCY : Surface Transportation Board. 
ACTION : Announcement of Regulatory 
Reform Task Force listening session. 
SUMMARY : Notice is hereby given of a 
listening session for the Regulatory 
Reform Task Force (RRTF). 
DATES : The listening session will be 
held on Tuesday, July 25, 2017, at 10 a.m. E.D.T. 
ADDRESSES : The listening session will 
be held in the Hearing Room on the first floor of the Board’s headquarters at 395 
E Street SW., Washington, DC 20423. 
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : 
Rachel D. Campbell (202) 245–0357; 
Rachel.Campbell@stb.gov. [Assistance 
for the hearing impaired is available through the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at: (800) 877–8339]. 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : The RRTF 
was established to comply with the spirit of Exec. Order No. 13,777, 82 FR 12285 (Mar. 1, 2017), and to move forward ongoing agency regulatory and process review initiatives. The RRTF’s mission is to identify rules and practices that are burdensome, unnecessary, or outdated, and to recommend how they should be addressed. On May 25, 2017, the RRFT submitted its first status report, which is available for viewing on the Board’s Web site at https://www.stb.gov/stb/about/RRTF.html. As 
detailed in that memo, the RRTF has identified some initial actions to pursue. However, given the direct impact of the Board’s regulations upon its stakeholders, the RRTF believes that reviewing its regulations is best conducted with input from its stakeholders. 
For that reason, the RRTF will hold a 
listening session that will be open to the public. Members of the RRTF will be present at the listening session, which will be on the record with a transcript prepared. The RRTF will release the transcript following the listening session. Interested persons not able to attend may provide written comments by July 25, 2017. Written comments should reference Docket No. EP 738, and should be addressed to: Regulatory Reform Task Force, Surface Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20423–0001. Submitted comments will become part of the record. 
Decided: June 20, 2017.
