SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Does this action apply to me?

    The Agency included in the December 21, 2015 final rule a list of 
those who may be potentially affected by this action.

II. What does this technical correction do?

    EPA issued a final rule in the Federal Register of December 21, 
2015 (80 FR 79267) (FRL-9937-18) that was adding commodities including 
Nut, tree group 14-12 to 40 CFR 180.361(a)(1). EPA inadvertently 
omitted the language in the codified text, which would have added Nut, 
tree group.

III. Why is this correction issued as a final rule?

    Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 
553(b)(3)(B)) provides that, when an agency for good cause finds that 
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary 
to the public interest, the agency may issue a final rule without 
providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has 
determined that there is good cause for making this technical 
correction final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment, 
because this is correcting a typographical error. EPA finds that this 
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).

IV. Do any of the statutory and executive order reviews apply to this 
action?

    No. For a detailed discussion concerning the statutory and 
executive order review, refer to Unit VI of the December 21, 2015 final 
rule.

V. Congressional Review Act

    Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 
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).
