          - 40 CFR Part 141
          - [EPA-HQ-OW-2020-0530; FRL-6791-05-OW]
          - RIN 2040-AF89

# AGENCY:

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

# ACTION:

Final rule and notice of public meetings; correction.

# SUMMARY:

                        The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making minor, non-substantive changes to a final rule, “Revisions to the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5) for Public Water Systems and Announcement of Public Meetings,” that appeared in the                         **Federal Register**                         on December 27, 2021. These corrections do not change any final action taken by EPA on December 27, 2021; rather, they simply clarify the amendatory instructions.                    

# DATES:

Effective January 26, 2022.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    Section 553(b)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), provides that, when an agency for good cause finds that public notice and comment procedures are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, the agency may issue a rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has determined that there is good cause for making this rule final without proposal and opportunity for comment because such notice and opportunity for comment is unnecessary for the following reasons: EPA is making minor, non-substantive changes to a final rule, “Revisions to the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5) for Public Water Systems,” that appeared in the                     **Federal Register**                     on December 27, 2021. These corrections do not change any final action taken by EPA on December 27, 2021; rather, they simply clarify the logistical instructions to the Office of the Federal Register to amend 40 CFR part 141. Thus, notice and comment is unnecessary because the public has previously had the opportunity to comment on the proposed action finalized on December 27, 2021.
