Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 112 / Wednesday, June 11, 2014 / Notices 33549 

Section 402(p)(3)(B)(iii) of CWA also 

authorizes EPA to include in an MS4 

permit ‘‘such other provisions as [EPA] 

determine[s] appropriate for control of 

. . . pollutants.’’ This provision forms a 

basis for imposing water quality-based 

effluent limitations (WQBELs), 

consistent with the authority in Section 

301(b)(1)(C) of the CWA. See Defenders 

of Wildlife v. Browner, 191 F.3d 1159, 

1166–67 (9th Cir. 1999); 64 FR 68722, 

68753, 68788 (Dec. 8, 1999). 

Accordingly, the draft permit contains 

the water quality-based effluent 

limitations, expressed in terms of BMPs, 

which EPA has determined are 

necessary and appropriate under the 

CWA. 

EPA issued a final general permit to 

address stormwater discharges from 

small MS4s on November 6, 2006. The 

2006 general permit required small 

MS4s to develop and implement a 

SWMP designed to control pollutants to 

the maximum extent practicable and 

protect water quality. This draft permit 

builds on the requirements of the 

previous general permit. 

EPA views the MEP standard in the 

CWA as an iterative process. MEP 

should continually adapt to current 

conditions and BMP effectiveness. 

Compliance with the requirements of 

this general permit will meet the MEP 

standard. The iterative process of MEP 

consists of a municipality developing a 

program consistent with specific permit 

requirements, implementing the 

program, evaluating the effectiveness of 

the BMPs included as part of the 

program, then revising those parts of the 

program that are not effective at 

controlling pollutants, then 

implementing the revisions, and 

evaluating again. The changes contained 

in the draft general permit reflect the 

iterative process of MEP. Accordingly, 

the draft general permit contains more 

specific tasks and details than the 2006 

general permit. 

EPA has explained in the draft general 

permit fact sheet a summary of permit 

conditions. The draft general permit and 

fact sheet are available at EPA’s Web 

site: www.epa.gov/region02/water/ 

permits.html. 

Other Legal Requirements 

A. Endangered Species Act (ESA) 

The provisions related to the ESA 

have been enhanced from those in the 

2006 draft permit. EPA will be 

requesting concurrence from the 

appropriate Federal services (U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service and National 

Marine Fisheries Service) in connection 

with the 2014 draft and has renewed 

this request for the new Draft Permit. 

B. Executive Order 12866 

EPA has determined that this general 

permit is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under the terms of Executive 

Order 12866 and is therefore not subject 

to OMB review. 

C. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The information collection 

requirements of this permit were 

previously approved by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) under 

the provisions of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., 

and assigned OMB control number 

2040–0004. 

D. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 

5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., requires that EPA 

prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis 

for rules subject to the requirements of 

5 U.S.C. 553(b) that have a significant 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities. However, general NPDES 

permits are not ‘‘rules’’ subject to the 

requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553(b) and are 

therefore not subject to the RFA. 

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

Section 201 of the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act (UMRA), Public 

Law 104–4, generally requires Federal 

agencies to assess the effects of their 

‘‘regulatory actions’’ (defined to be the 

same as ‘‘rules’’ subject to the RFA) on 

tribal, state, and local governments and 

the private sector. However, general 

NPDES permits are not ‘‘rules’’ subject 

to the requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 

and are therefore not subject to the RFA 

or the UMRA. 

Authority: This action is being taken under 

the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.

Applications for New Active 

Ingredients; Correction 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice; correction. 

SUMMARY: EPA issued a notice in the 

Federal Register of April 18, 2014, (79 

FR 21919) concerning pending 

registration applications for pesticide 

products containing an active ingredient 

not included in any currently registered 

pesticide products. This document 

corrects the erroneous reference of 

establishing a Guideline Reference Level 

(GRL) for residues of oxathiapiprolin in 

or on tobacco, dried leaves. The United 

States does not establish GRLs and this 

reference was an error.
