SUMMARY: EPA is correcting minor errors

in the effluent limitations guidelines

and the national emission standards for

hazardous air pollutants promulgated

under the Clean Air Act for the pulp

and paper production category, which

appeared in the Federal Register on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Overview

The EPA published a document in the

April 15, 1998 Federal Register (63 FR

18504–18751) promulgating the effluent

limitations guidelines and standards

under the Clean Water Act (CWA) for a

portion of the pulp, paper and

paperboard industry and national

emission standards for hazardous air

pollutants (NESHAP) under the Clean

Air Act (CAA) as amended in 1990 for

the pulp and paper production source

category. The final rules promulgated in

the April 15, 1998 Federal Register

contained some minor errors that are

discussed briefly below and are

corrected by this notice.

Administrative Requirements and

Related Government Acts

A. The Administrative Procedure Act

Consistent with section 553(b) of the

Administrative Procedure Act (APA),

EPA has found for good cause that

notice and an opportunity to comment

on these technical corrections is

unnecessary because this rule merely

corrects typographical errors and

clerical oversights and would not

benefit from public comment. In

addition, EPA has found good cause

under APA section 553(d)(3) for waiving

the APA’s 30-day delay in effectiveness

as to these final rules. It is important

that these minor technical corrections

become effective immediately because

they correct or clarify certain regulatory

requirements that are currently

applicable to facilities within the

affected subcategories.

B. Executive Order 12866 and OMB

Review

EPA has determined that these

corrections do not constitute

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ that

would trigger review by the Office of

Management and Budget.

C. The Regulatory Flexibility Act

EPA has determined that these

corrections will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities within the

meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility

Act, 5 U.S.C. 605. With respect to the

underlying regulations that this rule

corrects, EPA incorporates herein the

findings set forth in 63 FR 18504.

D. Paperwork Reduction Act

EPA has determined that these

regulations do not contain any

information collection requirements that

require the approval of the Office of

Management and Budget pursuant to the

Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.

chapter 35. With respect to the

underlying regulations that these rules

correct, EPA incorporates herein the

discussion set forth in 63 FR 18504.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

EPA incorporates herein the

discussion set forth in 63 FR 18504.

F. Congressional Review Act

The Congressional Review Act, 5

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small

Business Regulatory Enforcement

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides

that before a rule may take effect, the

agency promulgating the rule must

submit a rule report, which includes a

copy of the rule, to each House of the

Congress and to the Comptroller General

of the United States. However, section

808 provides that any rule for which the

issuing agency for good cause finds (and

incorporates the finding and a brief

statement of reasons therefore in the

rule) that notice and public procedure

thereon are impracticable, unnecessary

or contrary to the public interest, shall

take effect at such time as the agency

promulgating the rule determines. 5

U.S.C. 808(2). As stated previously, EPA

has made such a good cause finding,
Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 152 / Friday, August 7, 1998 /Rules and Regulations 42239

including the reasons therefore, and

established an effective date of August

7, 1998. 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 rule is not a

major rule as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

G. Other Applicable Executive Orders

and Statutes

EPA incorporates herein the

discussion of the Executive Orders and

statutes presented in 63 FR 18504. This

technical corrections rule is not a

‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C.

804(2); therefore, it is not subject to the

60-day delay in effectiveness specified

under the Small Business Regulatory

Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996.

H. Protection of Children from

Environmental Health Risks and Safety

Risks

This final rule is not subject to E.O.

13045, entitled ‘‘Protection of Children

from Environmental Health Risks and

Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, April 23,

1997), because ‘‘this is not an

economically significant regulatory

action as defined by E.O. 12866.’’

Radiation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the

Federal Register of June 10, 1998 (63 FR

31769) (FRL–5793–1), EPA, issued a

notice pursuant to section 408 of the

Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

(FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a(e) announcing

the filing of a pesticide petition (PP

6G4615) for a tolerance by FMC

Corporation, 1735 Market St.,

Philadelphia, PA 19103. This notice

included a summary of the petition

prepared by FMC Corporation, the

registrant. There were no comments

received in response to the notice of

filing.

The petition requested that 40 CFR

part 180 be amended by extending a

temporary tolerance for combined

residues of the herbicide carfentrazoneethyl (ethyl-alpha-2-dichloro-5-[4-

(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl5-oxo-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]-4-

fluorobenzene-propanoate), and its

metabolite, in or on field corn forage,

fodder, and grain at 0.15 parts per

million (ppm); and for wheat hay, straw,
