SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In FR Doc. FR 2024–12842 of June 17, 

2024 (89 FR 51238), the final rule titled 

‘‘Medicare Program; Medicare 

Prescription Drug Benefit Program; 

Health Information Technology 

Standards and Implementation 

Specifications,’’ there were a few 

typographical and technical errors that 

are identified and corrected in this 

correction. The corrections are 

applicable to the start of the transition 

period for use of the National Council 

for Prescription Drug Programs (NCPDP) 

SCRIPT standard and NCPDP 

(Formulary and Benefit) F&B standard 

versions beginning July 17, 2024, as if 

they had been included in the document 

that appeared in the June 17, 2024 

Federal Register. 

II. Summary of Errors 

On page 51252, we made 

typographical errors in our discussion of 

the start dates for the transition periods 

for use of the NCPDP SCRIPT standard 

and NCPDP F&B standard versions, and 

in section IV of this document we 

correct these errors. 

On page 51255, we made errors in our 

discussion of how non-NCPDP members 

may review and inspect NCPDP 

standards that have been incorporated 

by reference, and in section IV of this 

document we correct this error. 

III. Waivers of Proposed Rulemaking 

and Delay in Effective Date 

Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (the 

APA), the agency is required to publish 

a notice of the proposed rule in the 

Federal Register before the provisions 

of a rule take effect. Specifically, 5 

U.S.C. 553 requires the agency to 

publish a notice of the proposed rule in 

the Federal Register that includes a 

reference to the legal authority under 

which the rule is proposed, and the 

terms and substance of the proposed 

rule or a description of the subjects and 

issues involved. Further, 5 U.S.C. 553 

requires the agency to give interested 

parties the opportunity to participate in 

the rulemaking through public comment 

on a proposed rule. Similarly, section 

1871(b)(1) of the Social Security Act 

(the Act) requires the Secretary to 

provide for notice of the proposed rule 

in the Federal Register and provide a 

period of not less than 60 days for 

public comment for rulemaking to carry 

out the administration of the Medicare 

program under title XVIII of the Act. In 

addition, section 553(d) of the APA and 

section 1871(e)(1)(B)(i) of the Act 

mandate a 30-day delay in effective date 

after issuance or publication of a rule. 

Sections 553(b)(B) and 553(d)(3) of the 

APA provide for exceptions from the 

APA notice and comment and delay in 

effective date requirements. In cases in 

which these exceptions apply, sections 

1871(b)(2)(C) and 1871(e)(1)(B)(ii) of the 

Act provide exceptions from the notice, 

60-day comment period, and delay in 

effective date requirements of the Act as 

well. Section 553(b)(B) of the APA and 

section 1871(b)(2)(C) of the Act 

authorize an agency to dispense with 

normal notice and comment rulemaking 

procedures for good cause if the agency 

makes a finding that the notice and 

comment process is impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest. In addition, both section 

553(d)(3) of the APA and section 

1871(e)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act allow the 

agency to avoid the 30-day delay in 

effective date where such delay is 

contrary to the public interest and the 

agency includes a statement of support. 

We believe that this correction does 

not constitute a rule that would be 

subject to the notice and comment or 

delayed effective date requirements of 

the APA or section 1871 of the Act. This 

document corrects typographical and 

technical errors in the preamble of the 

final rule but does not make substantive 

changes to the policies that were 

adopted in the final rule. As a result, 

this correction is intended to ensure that 

the information in the final rule 

accurately reflects the policies adopted 

in that final rule. 

In addition, even if this were a rule to 

which the notice and comment 

procedures and delayed effective date 

requirements applied, we find that there 

is good cause to waive such 

requirements. Undertaking further 

notice and comment procedures to 

incorporate the preamble corrections in 

this document into the final rule or 

delaying the effective date would be 

unnecessary, as we are not altering our 

policies or regulatory changes, but 

rather, we are simply implementing the 

policies and regulatory changes that we 

previously proposed, requested 

comment on, and subsequently 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 174 / Monday, September 9, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 72999 

finalized. This final rule correction is 

intended solely to ensure that the final 

rule accurately reflects policies and 

regulatory changes that have been 

adopted through rulemaking. 

Furthermore, such notice and comment 

procedures would be contrary to the 

public interest because it is in the 

public’s interest to ensure that the final 

rule accurately reflects our policies and 

regulatory changes. Therefore, we 

believe we have good cause to waive the 

notice and comment and effective date 

requirements. 

IV. Corrections

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The BLM is establishing this 

supplementary rule under the authority 

of 43 CFR 8365.1–6, which authorizes 

BLM State Directors to establish 

supplementary rules for the protection 

of persons, property, and public lands 

and resources. 

In March 2007, the BLM published in 

the Federal Register a Notice of Intent 

to Amend the Uncompahgre Basin and 

San Juan/San Miguel Resource 

Management Plans (RMPs) and prepare 

the Dry Creek Comprehensive Travel 

Management Plan, Colorado (72 FR 

10243). The RMP amendment, approved 

in June 2010, changed off-highway 

vehicle designations in identified areas 

from ‘‘Open or Limited’’ to ‘‘Limited to 

existing routes year-long or with 

seasonal restrictions’’ until further 

route-by-route planning could be 

completed. The BLM issued decision 

records for the Dry Creek TMP on 

December 1, 2009; the Ridgway TMP on 

May 13, 2013; and the Norwood-Burn 

Canyon TMP on November 14, 2014. 

The BLM approved the TMPs after 

multiple public comment opportunities 

and coordination with local 

government. On April 2, 2020, the BLM 

approved a revised Uncompahgre RMP 

that includes the Dry Creek, Ridgway, 

and Norwood-Burn Canyon travel 

management areas (TMAs) and brings 

forward from the TMPs the travel 

management decisions for these areas. 

This rule will implement and enforce 

several key decisions in the TMPs to 

protect natural resources, enhance 

public safety, and help improve habitat 

quality, big-game winter range, and 

migration corridors. The rule does not 

affect other existing rules. The rule 

applies to more than 121,000 acres of 

public land within the Dry Creek, 

Ridgway, and Norwood-Burn Canyon 

TMAs administered by the BLM 

Uncompahgre Field Office in Montrose, 

Delta, San Miguel, and Ouray counties, 

Colorado. This rule is necessary to 

regulate travel management decisions in 

the TMPs that restrict certain activities 

and define allowable uses intended to 

enhance public safety, protect natural 

and cultural resources, eliminate nonmotorized impacts on sensitive species 

habitat, and reduce conflicts among 

public land users. 

The rule makes enforceable 

restrictions limiting the operation of 

mechanized vehicles to designated 

travel routes identified in the TMPs, 

with the following exemptions: (1) big 

game hunters are permitted to use 

mechanized game carts off designated 

travel routes outside of designated 

wilderness and wilderness study areas 

only when necessary to retrieve big 

game animals during authorized 

hunting seasons; (2) mechanized 

vehicles are permitted to pull off 

designated travel routes up to one 

vehicle-width from the edge of a 

roadway to accommodate parking, 

dispersed camping, or general 

recreation; and (3) in the Dry Creek 

TMA, mechanized vehicles are 

permitted to pull off within 300 feet of 

a designated travel route in a designated 

camping area identified by a BLM sign 

or map. 

The rule makes enforceable seasonal 

restrictions on travel in certain priority 

big game wintering habitats identified 

by the BLM Uncompahgre Field Office, 

in consultation with Colorado Parks and 

Wildlife, as the most important big game 

winter use areas within the TMAs. 

These seasonal restrictions allow for 

human access during non-restricted 

periods while closing key areas during 

critical seasons to preserve the health of 

big game herds. 

The rule makes enforceable 

authorized dispersed camping in the 

Norwood-Burn Canyon and Dry Creek 

TMAs unless a BLM sign or map 

identifies an area as closed to such use, 

as well as authorized camping in 

designated campgrounds in the Dry 

Creek TMA identified by a BLM sign or 

map. The rule implements and makes 

enforceable the closure of the Ridgway 

TMA to overnight use. In the Ridgway 

TMA, the rule makes enforceable the 

requirement that pets be leashed in the 

Uncompahgre Riverway Area and at all 

trailheads, as identified by BLM signs or 

maps, and under audible or physical
