# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. General Information

### A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

                    The Agency included in the final rule a list of those who may be potentially affected by this action. If you have questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person listed under                     **FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT**                    .                

### B. How Can I Access Electronic Copies of this Document and Other Related Information?

                    In addition to accessing electronically available documents at                    *http://www.regulations.gov*, you may access this                     **Federal Register**                     document electronically through the EPA Internet under the                     **Federal Register**                     listings at                     *http://www.epa.gov/​fedrgstr*.                

## II. What Does this Amendment Do?

                    EPA issued a final rule in the                     **Federal Register**                     of September 10, 2008 (73 FR 52607) (FRL-8379-3), revoking, revising, and establishing certain tolerances for residues of benfluralin, carbaryl, diazinon, dicrotophos, fluometruon, formetanate hydrochloride, glyphosate, metolachlor, napropamide, norflurazon, pyrazon, and tau-fluvalinate.On page 52611, third column, the amendatory language for § 180.169 inadvertently omitted the phrasing to delete paragraphs (a)(3) and (a)(4). This document corrects that error.                

## III. Why is this Amendment Issued as a Final Rule?

Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(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 today's technical amendment final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment, because the use of notice and comment procedures is unnecessary to effectuate this amendment. EPA finds that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).

## IV. Do Any of the Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Apply to this Action?

EPA included the required statutory discussion in the September 10, 2008 final rule (72 FR 52607).

## V. Congressional Review Act

                    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801*et seq*., generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the Agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 this final rule in the                     **Federal Register**                    . This final rule is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
