69892 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 220 / Tuesday, November 16, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

the Executive Order to include 

regulations that have ‘‘substantial direct 

effects 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.’’ 

This action does not have federalism 

implications. It will not have substantial 

direct effects 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, as specified in 

Executive Order 13132. This rule simply 

extends the date for EPA to take action 

on a petition and does not impose any 

new obligations or enforceable duties on 

any State, local or Tribal governments or 

the private sector. Thus, Executive 

Order 13132 does not apply to this rule. 

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation 

and Coordination With Indian Tribal 

Governments 

This action does not have Tribal 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 

2000). It will not have substantial direct 

effects on Tribal governments, 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, as 

specified in Executive Order 13175. 

This action does not significantly or 

uniquely affect the communities of 

Indian Tribal governments. As 

discussed above, this action imposes no 

new requirements that would impose 

compliance burdens. Accordingly, the 

requirements of Executive Order 13175 

do not apply to this rule. 

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of 

Children From Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks 

This action is not subject to EO 13045 

(62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) because 

the Agency does not believe the 

environmental health risks or safety 

risks addressed by this action present a 

disproportionate risk to children. This 

action is not subject to executive Order 

13045 because it does not establish an 

environmental standard intended to 

mitigate health or safety risks. This rule 

simply extends the deadline for EPA to 

take action on a petition and does not 

impose any regulatory requirements. 

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions 

Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use 

This action is not a ‘‘significant energy 

action’’ as defined in Executive Order 

13211 (66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001)), 

because it is not likely to have a 

significant adverse effect on the supply, 

distribution, or use of energy. Further, 

we have concluded that this rule is not 

likely to have any adverse effects 

because this action simply extends the 

deadline for EPA to take action on a 

petition. 

I. National Technology Transfer and 

Advancement Act 

Section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (‘‘NTTAA’’), Public Law 

104–113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) 

directs EPA to use voluntary consensus 

standards in its regulatory activities 

unless to do so would be inconsistent 

with applicable law or otherwise 

impractical. Voluntary consensus 

standards are technical standards (e.g., 

materials specifications, test methods, 

sampling procedures, and business 

practices) that are developed or adopted 

by voluntary consensus standards 

bodies. NTTAA directs EPA to provide 

Congress, through OMB, explanations 

when the Agency decides not to use 

available and applicable voluntary 

consensus standards. 

This action does not involve technical 

standards. Therefore, EPA did not 

consider the use of any voluntary 

consensus standards. 

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal 

Actions To Address Environmental 

Justice in Minority Populations and 

Low-Income Populations 

Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629 

(Feb. 16, 1994)) establishes Federal 

executive policy on environmental 

justice. Its main provision directs 

Federal agencies, to the greatest extent 

practicable and permitted by law, to 

make environmental justice part of their 

mission by identifying and addressing, 

as appropriate, disproportionately high 

and adverse human health or 

environmental effects of its programs, 

policies, and activities on minorities 

and low-income populations in the 

United States. 

The EPA has determined that this 

final rule will not have 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health or environmental effects 

on minority or low-income populations 

because it simply extends the deadline 

for EPA to take action on a petition and 

does not impose any regulatory 

requirements. 

K. Congressional Review Act 

The Congressional Review Act (CRA), 

5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides 

that before a rule may take effect, the 

agency promulgating the rule must 

submit a rule report, which includes a 

copy of the rule, to each House of the 

Congress and to the Comptroller General 

of the United States. Section 808 of the 

CRA provides an exception to this 

requirement. For any rule for which an 

agency for good cause finds that notice 

and comment are impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest, the rule may take effect on the 

date set by the Agency. The EPA will 

submit a report containing this rule and 

other required information to the U.S. 

Senate, the U.S. House of 

Representatives, and the Comptroller 

General of the United States prior to 

publication of the rule in the Federal 

Register. This action is not a ‘‘major 

rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). 

L. Judicial Review 

Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean 

Air Act, petitions for judicial review of 

this action must be filed in the United 

States Court of Appeals for the 

appropriate circuit by January 18, 2011. 

Filing a petition for reconsideration by 

the Administrator of this final rule does 

not affect the finality of this action for 

the purposes of judicial review nor does 

it extend the time within which a 

petition for judicial review may be filed, 

and shall not postpone the effectiveness 

of such rule or action. This action may 

not be challenged later in proceedings to 

enforce its requirements. (See section 

307(b)(2).)

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: Base (1% annual-chance) 

Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified 

BFEs are made final for the 

communities listed below. The BFEs 

and modified BFEs are the basis for the 

floodplain management measures that 

each community is required either to 

adopt or to show evidence of being 

already in effect in order to qualify or 

remain qualified for participation in the 

National Flood Insurance Program 

(NFIP). 

DATES: The date of issuance of the Flood 

Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) showing 

BFEs and modified BFEs for each 

community. This date may be obtained 

by contacting the office where the maps 

are available for inspection as indicated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) makes the final determinations 

listed below for the modified BFEs for 

each community listed. These modified 

elevations have been published in 

newspapers of local circulation and 

ninety (90) days have elapsed since that 

publication. The Deputy Federal 

Insurance and Mitigation Administrator 

has resolved any appeals resulting from 

this notification. 

This final rule is issued in accordance 

with section 110 of the Flood Disaster 

Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, 

and 44 CFR part 67. FEMA has 

developed criteria for floodplain 

management in floodprone areas in 

accordance with 44 CFR part 60.

National Environmental Policy Act. 

This final rule is categorically excluded 

from the requirements of 44 CFR part 

10, Environmental Consideration. An 

environmental impact assessment has 

not been prepared. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act. As flood 

elevation determinations are not within 

the scope of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act, 5 U.S.C. 601–612, a regulatory 

flexibility analysis is not required. 

Regulatory Classification. This final 

rule is not a significant regulatory action 

under the criteria of section 3(f) of 

Executive Order 12866 of September 30, 

1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 

58 FR 51735. 

Executive Order 13132, Federalism. 

This final rule involves no policies that 

have federalism implications under 

Executive Order 13132. 

Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice 

Reform. This final rule meets the 

applicable standards of Executive Order 

12988.

Fisheries of the Northeastern United 

States; Atlantic Herring Fishery; 

Temporary Removal of 2,000-lb (907.2 

kg) Herring Trip Limit in Atlantic 

Herring Management Area 1A 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Temporary rule. 

SUMMARY: NMFS announces a temporary 

removal of the 2,000-lb (907.2 kg) trip 

limit for the Atlantic herring fishery in 

Management Area 1A (Area 1A). The 

trip limit removal is because catch data 

indicate that 95 percent of the total 

allowable catch (TAC) threshold in Area 

1A has not been fully attained. Vessels 

issued a Federal permit to harvest 

Atlantic herring may resume fishing for 

and landing herring, in amounts greater 

than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg), consistent with 

their respective Atlantic herring permit 

categories, effective 0001 hrs, November 

15, 2010, through 0001 hrs, November 

17, 2010. At 0001 hrs, November 17, 

2010, vessels will again be prohibited 

from fishing for, catching, possessing, 

transferring, or landing more than 2,000 

lb (907.2 kg) of Atlantic herring per trip 

or calendar day. 

DATES: Effective 0001 hours, November 

15, 2010, through 0001 hours, 

November 17, 2010. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lindsey Feldman, Fishery Management 

Specialist, 978–675–2179. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Regulations governing the Atlantic 

herring fishery are found at 50 CFR part 

648. The regulations require annual 

specification of optimum yield, 

domestic and foreign fishing, domestic 

and joint venture processing, and 

management area TACs. Final herring 

specifications for 2010–2012 published 

on August 12, 2010 (75 FR 48874). The 

2010 total TAC is 91,200 mt, allocated 

to the herring management areas as 

follows: 26,546 mt to Area 1A, 4,362 mt 

to Area 1B; 22,146 mt to Area 2; and 

38,146 mt to Area 3. 

Regulations at § 648.201(a) require 

NMFS to monitor catch from the herring 

fishery in each of the herring 

management areas, using dealer reports, 

state data, and other available 

information, to determine when the 

catch of herring is projected to reach 95 

percent of the TAC allocated. When 

such a determination is made, NMFS is 

required to prohibit, through 

publication in the Federal Register, 

herring vessel permit holders from 

fishing for, catching, possessing, 

transferring, or landing more than 2,000 

lb (907.2 kg) of herring, per trip or 

calendar day, in or from the specified 

management area for the remainder of 

the closure period, with the exception of 

transiting as described below. 

NMFS filed a temporary rule, effective 

November 8, 2010, in the Federal 

Register, projecting that 95 percent of 

the Area 1A TAC had been harvested. 

Based upon information indicating that 

95 percent of the TAC would be reached 

by November 8, 2010, the temporary 

rule reduced the herring trip limit for all 

federally permitted herring vessels to 

2,000 lb (907.2 kg) per trip in Area 1A; 

the trip limit reduction was effective 

through December 31, 2010. 

The NMFS Northeast Regional 

Administrator has since determined, 

based upon the latest dealer reports and 

other available information, that the 

herring fleet has not yet taken 95 

percent of the TAC as of November 8, 

2010, and that there is approximately 

5,000 mt of Atlantic herring quota still 

available in Area 1A. Therefore, to 

ensure that the herring fleet is able to 

take up to 95 percent of the TAC, 

consistent with applicable regulations 

and trip limits, this action temporarily 

removes the 2,000-lb (907.2 kg) trip 

limit implemented on November 8, 

2010, and restores the trip limits, if any, 

in effect before November 8, 2010, until 

0001 hrs November 17, 2010. This 

means that effective 0001 hrs, November 

15, 2010, through 0001 hrs, November 

17, 2010, vessels issued an All Areas 

Limited Access Herring Permit are 

authorized to fish for, possess, or land 

Atlantic herring with no possession 

restrictions; vessels issued an Areas 2 

and 3 Limited Access Herring Permit are 

authorized to fish for, possess, or land 

Atlantic herring only if issued an open 

access herring permit or a Limited 

Access Incidental Catch Permit; vessels 

issued a Limited Access Incidental 

Catch Herring Permit are authorized to 

fish for, possess, or land up to 55,000 lb 

(25 mt); and vessels issued an open 

access herring permit may not fish for, 

possess, or land more than 6,600 lb (3 

mt) or Atlantic herring in Area 1A. 

At 0001 hrs November 17, 2010, all 

federally permitted herring vessels will 

again be prohibited from fishing for, 

catching, possessing, transferring, or 

landing more than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg) of 

herring, per trip or calendar day, in or 

from Area 1A, through December 31, 

2010. Vessels transiting Area 1A with 

more than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg) of herring 

on board may do so, provided such 

herring was not caught in Area 1A and 

that all fishing gear is stowed and not 

available for immediate use, as required 

by § 648.23(b). 

Effective 0001 hrs, November 15, 

2010, federally permitted dealers are 

advised that they may purchase more 

than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg) of Atlantic 

herring caught in Area 1A by federally 

permitted vessels until 0001 hrs 

November 17, 2010. At 0001 hrs 

November 17, 2010, federally permitted 

dealers will again be prohibited from 

purchasing herring from federally 

permitted herring vessels that harvest 

more than 2,000 lb (907.2 kg) of herring 

from Area 1A, through 2400 hrs local 

time, December 31, 2010. 

Classification 

This action is taken under 50 CFR 

part 648 and is exempt from review 

under E.O. 12866. 

The Assistant Administrator for 

Fisheries, NOAA (AA), finds good cause 

pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive 

prior notice and the opportunity for 

public comment because it would be 

contrary to the public interest. This 

action temporarily removes the 2,000-lb 

(907.2 kg) herring trip limit in Area 1A 

from November 15 until November 17, 

2010. As of 0001 hrs November 17, 

2010, the Area 1A trip limit will again 

be reduced to 2,000 lb (907.2 kg) per trip 

or calendar day, until December 31, 

2010. The Atlantic herring fishery 

opened for the 2010 fishing year at 0001 

hrs on January 1, 2010. The Atlantic 

herring fleet was prohibited from fishing 

for, catching, possessing, transferring, or 

landing more than 2,000 lb (907.2 mt) 

per trip or calendar day on November 8, 

2010, based on projections that 95 

percent of the available Area 1A herring 

quota had been harvested. Catch data 

indicating the Atlantic herring fleet did 

not harvest the full amount of available 

quota have only very recently become 

available. If implementation of this 

temporary removal of the 2,000-lb 

(907.2 kg) trip limit is delayed to solicit
