18136 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 63 / Friday, April 1, 2011 / Proposed Rules 

(4) Are there rules that are ineffective 

and if so, how can they be made 

effective? 

(5) Are there rules that are not tailored 

to impose the least burden on the 

public? What are some suggestions that 

PBGC can use to reduce the burden on 

such rules as well as suggestions that 

generally assure that PBGC’s regulations 

promote and achieve its mission in 

ways that are efficient and less 

burdensome? 

(6) Are there rules that have become 

outdated and, if so, how can they be 

modernized to better accomplish their 

regulatory objectives? 

(7) Are there rules that are still 

necessary, but which have not operated 

as well as expected such that a 

modified, stronger, or slightly different 

approach is justified? 

(8) Are there regulations, or regulatory 

processes that are unnecessarily 

complicated or could be streamlined to 

achieve regulatory objectives more 

efficiently? 

(9) Are there any technological 

developments that can be leveraged to 

modify, streamline, or repeal any 

existing regulatory requirements? 

(10) How can PBGC best obtain and 

consider accurate, objective information 

and data about the costs, burdens, and 

benefits of existing regulations? Are 

there existing sources of data PBGC can 

use to evaluate the effects of regulations 

over time? 

(11) Are there regulations that are 

working well that can be expanded or 

used as a model to fill gaps in other 

PBGC regulatory programs? 

PBGC notes that this Request for 

Comment is issued solely for 

information and program-planning 

purposes. The agency will give careful 

consideration to the responses, and may 

use them as appropriate during the 

retrospective review, but does not 

anticipate providing a response to each 

comment submitted. However, all 

submissions will be made publically 

available on http://www.regulations.gov. 

Responses to this Request for Comment 

do not bind PBGC to any further actions 

related to the response.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) Region 1 is issuing a 

Notice of Intent to Delete the Norwood 

PCBs Superfund Site (Site) located in 

Norwood, Massachusetts, from the 

National Priorities List (NPL) and 

requests public comments on this 

proposed action. The NPL, promulgated

have determined that all appropriate 

response actions under CERCLA, other 

than operation, maintenance, and fiveyear reviews, have been completed. 

However, this deletion does not 

preclude future actions under CERCLA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

1. By this Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking, adopted on February 28, 

2011 and released on March 3, 2011, we 

seek to clarify the rules on the payment 

of filing fees by winning bidders in 

auctions of construction permits in the 

broadcast services in conjunction with 

their long-form applications. In the 

Broadcast Competitive Bidding First 

Report and Order, the Commission 

required the filing of application fees in 

such cases, and section 1.1104, the 

Schedule of Charges for Media Bureau 

Service filings, requires the payment of 

a fee when the long-form application is 

filed.1 However, section 1.2107(c) of the 

rules provides with regard to the filing 

of long-form applications by winning 

bidders in auctions that, 

‘‘Notwithstanding any other provision in 

Title 47 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations to the contrary, high 

bidders need not submit an additional 

application filing fee with their longform applications.’’ 2 To resolve any 

inconsistency and to conform Section 

1.2107(c) to the Commission’s 

determination in the Broadcast 

Competitive Bidding First Report and 

Order as reflected in section 1.1104, we 

propose to amend section 1.2107(c) by 

revising the cited sentence to read as 

follows: ‘‘Except as otherwise provided 

in section 1.1104 of the rules, high 

bidders need not submit an additional 

application fee with their long-form 

applications.’’ We seek comment on this 

proposal. 

Procedural Matters 

2. Regulatory Flexibility Act. The rule 

change proposed in the Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities or 

impose significant costs on parties to 

Commission proceedings. 

3. Comment Filing Procedures. 

Pursuant to Sections 1.415 and 1.419 of 

the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415 

and 1.419, interested parties may file 

comments in the Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking 15 days after publication in 

the Federal Register, and reply 

comments 15 days after the comment 

deadline. Comments may be filed using 

the Commission’s Electronic Comment 

Filing System (ECFS) or by filing paper 

copies. See Electronic Filing of 

Documents in Rulemaking Proceedings, 

63 FR 24121 (1998). 

• Electronic Filers. Comments may be 

filed electronically using the Internet by 

accessing the ECFS: http://www.fcc.gov/ 

cgb/ecfs/. Filers should follow the 

instructions provided on the Web site 

for submitting comments. 

• ECFS filers must transmit one 

electronic copy of the comments for 

Gen. Docket No. 86–285. In completing 

the transmittal screen, filers should 

include their full name, U.S. Postal 

Service mailing address, and the 

applicable docket number. Parties may 

also submit an electronic comment by 

Internet e-mail. 

• Paper Filers: Parties who choose to 

file by paper must file an original and 

four copies of each filing. Filings can be 

sent by hand or messenger delivery, by 

commercial overnight courier, or by 

first-class or overnight U.S. Postal 

Service mail (although we continue to 

experience delays in receiving U.S. 

Postal Service mail due to security 

measures). All filings must be addressed 

to the Commission’s Secretary, Office of 

the Secretary, Federal Communications 

Commission.
