### 729 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 3 / Friday, January 4, 2013 / Notices

The States of South Dakota and Utah have been authorized permitting authority for sewage sludge, therefore the EPA’s general permits will be reissued only for Indian country in those States. The general permit for Indian country in Utah does not include the portions of the Goshute Indian Reservation and the Navajo Nation in Utah because the permitting activities for these reservations are done by Region 9 of the EPA. The State of Colorado has not been authorized permitting authority for Federal facilities, so a general permit is proposed for Federal facilities not located in Indian country.

Authorization for use/disposal of sewage sludge under the general permits may be for one of the following three categories: Category 1—Facilities/ operations that generate and/or partially treat sewage sludge, but do not use/ dispose of sewage sludge; Category 2— Facilities/operations that use/dispose of sewage sludge and may also generate and/or treat sewage sludge; and Category 3—Wastewater lagoon systems that need to land apply sewage sludge on an occasional, restricted basis. Authorization for use/disposal of sewage sludge under the general permit will be limited to one of the three categories, but authorization may be granted to one or more subcategories under Category 2. In applying for authorization for use/disposal of sewage sludge under the general permit, the applicant will be required to specify under which category or subcategory(s) authorization is being requested. However, the permit issuing authority will have the final determination as to which category or subcategory(s) the authorization will be granted. The requirements in the permit for the use/ disposal of sewage sludge are based primarily on 40 CFR Part 503. Other Legal Requirements

Economic Impact (Executive Order 12866): The EPA has determined that the issuance of this general permit is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under the terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735 (October 4, 1993)) and is therefore not subject to formal OMB review prior to proposal.

Paperwork Reduction Act: The EPA has reviewed the requirements imposed on regulated facilities in these proposed general permits under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, 44 U.S.C. § 501 et seq. The information collection requirements of these permits have already been approved by the Office of Management and Budget in submissions made for the NPDES permit program under the provisions of the Clean Water Act.

Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., as amended by the Small Business regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA): The RFA requires that the 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. The permit proposed today, however, is not a ‘‘rule’’ subject to the requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553(b) and is therefore not subject to the RFA.

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, local governments and the private sector. The permit proposed today, however, is not a ‘‘rule’’ subject to the RFA and is therefore not subject to the requirements of the UMRA.

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