1296 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 6 / Thursday, January 9, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

issued rule, it is anticipated that the

economic impact of this action will be

minimal; therefore, a full regulatory

evaluation is not required.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

In compliance with the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601–612), the

FHWA has evaluated the effects of this

action on small entities and has

determined that, since this action

withdraws regulations previously

issued, it will not place a significant

economic burden on a substantial

number of small entities.

Executive Order 12612 (Federalism

Assessment)

This action has been analyzed in

accordance with the principles and

criteria contained in Executive Order

12612, and it has been determined that

this action does not have sufficient

Federalism implications to warrant the

preparation of a Federalism assessment.

This withdrawal of a recently published

final rule will not preempt any State law

or State regulation and no additional

costs or burdens will be imposed on the

States. This action will not affect the

States’ ability to execute traditional

State governmental functions.

Executive Order 12372

(Intergovernmental Review)

Catalog of Federal Domestic

Assistance Program Number 20.217,

Motor Carrier Safety. The regulations

implementing Executive Order 12372

regarding intergovernmental

consultation on Federal programs and

activities do not apply to this program.

Paperwork Reduction Act

The information collection

requirements contained in the final rule

previously issued on December 29,

1994, were approved by the OMB in

accordance with the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44

U.S.C. 3501–3520 and assigned the

control number of 2125–0557 which

expires on June 30, 1997. This action

reduces paperwork burdens previously

established and results in the FHWA no

longer conducting or sponsoring a

collection of information to implement

49 U.S.C. chapter 59. The FHWA,

therefore, will not seek extension of the

OMB’s approval of the information

collection assigned control number

2125–0557.

National Environmental Policy Act

The agency has analyzed this

rulemaking for the purpose of the

National Environmental Policy Act of

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4347) and has

determined that this action would not

have any effect on the quality of the

environment.

Regulation Identification Number

A regulation identification number

(RIN) is assigned to each regulatory

action listed in the Unified Agenda of

Federal Regulations. The Regulatory

Information Service Center publishes

the Unified Agenda in April and

October of each year. The RIN contained

in the heading of this document can be

used to cross reference this action with

the Unified Agenda.

Endangered and Threatened Species;

California Coast Coho Salmon

Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU);

Correction

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Correction to final rule.

SUMMARY: NMFS is making a technical

correction to the final rule (61 FR 56138,

October 31, 1996) determining that the

Central California Coast Coho Salmon

Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU) is

a threatened species. The correction

specifies that the ESU consists of all

coho salmon naturally reproduced in

streams between Punta Gorda in

Humboldt County, CA, and the San

Lorenzo River in Santa Cruz County,

CA.

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 2, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Need for Correction

On October 31, 1996, NMFS

published a final rule listing the Central

California Coho Salmon ESU as a

threatened species (61 FR 56138). In the

last paragraph of the ‘‘Listing

Determination’’ section of the preamble

to the rule (see page 56146, bottom of

second column and top of third

column), NMFS clearly defined the

Central California Coho Salmon ESU as

consisting of ‘‘all coho salmon naturally

reproduced in streams between Punta

Gorda, Humboldt County, CA, and the

San Lorenzo River, Santa Cruz County,

CA.’’ However, the definition of the

listed ESU in the regulatory text

codified at section 227.4(h) was

ambiguous as to the geographic extent of

the listed ESU and whether the listed

ESU specifically included hatchery

populations or only naturally

reproduced populations.

Correction of Publication

Accordingly, the publication on

October 31, 1996, of the final rule (I.D.

012595A), which was the subject of FR

Doc. 96–56138, is corrected as follows:

§ 227.4—[Corrected]

On page 56149, in the third column,

in § 227.4, paragraph (h) is corrected to

read as follows:

* * * * *

(h) Central California Coast Coho

Salmon. Includes all coho salmon

naturally reproduced in streams

between Punta Gorda in Humboldt

County, CA, and the San Lorenzo River

in Santa Cruz County, CA.

* * * * *

Dated: January 3, 1997.

Acting Director, Office of Protected Resources,

National Marine Fisheries Service.
