of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); 

• Is certified as not having a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.); 

• Does not contain any unfunded 

mandate or significantly or uniquely 

affect small governments, as described 

in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4); 

• Does not have federalism 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999); 

• Is not an economically significant 

regulatory action based on health or 

safety risks subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); 

• Is not a significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); 

• Is not subject to requirements of 

Section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because 

application of those requirements would 

be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act; 

and 

• Does not provide the EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address, as 

appropriate, disproportionate human 

health or environmental effects, using 

practicable and legally permissible 

methods, under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, the SIP is not approved to 

apply on any Indian reservation land or 

in any other area where the EPA or an 

Indian tribe has demonstrated that a 

tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of 

Indian country, this action does not 

have tribal implications and will not 

impose substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000). 

B. Submission to Congress and the 

Comptroller General 

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. The EPA will 

submit a report containing this action 

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. A major rule cannot take effect 

until 60 days after it is published in the 

Federal Register. This action is not a 

‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 

804(2). 

C. Petitions for Judicial Review 

Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean 

Air Act, petitions for judicial review of 

this action must be filed in the United 

States Court of Appeals for the 

appropriate circuit by June 21, 2022. 

Filing a petition for reconsideration by 

the Administrator of this final rule does 

not affect the finality of this action for 

the purposes of judicial review nor does 

it extend the time within which a 

petition for judicial review may be filed 

and shall not postpone the effectiveness 

of such rule or action. This action 

correcting the California SIP to reflect 

the vacatur of EPA’s June 25, 2020 final 

rule may not be challenged later in 

proceedings to enforce its requirements.

Federal Travel Regulation; Rental Car 

Policy Updates and Clarifications 

AGENCY: Office of Government-wide 

Policy (OGP), General Services 

Administration (GSA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule clarifies that 

agencies may reimburse relocating 

employees rental car fees when their 

privately owned vehicle (POV) suffers a 

shipping delay when arriving at or 

returning from a foreign or non-foreign 

area outside the continental United 

States (OCONUS). The rule also defines 

the terms: OCONUS and fuel. It also 

clarifies when collision damage 

waiver(s) and theft insurance are 

reimbursable during car rentals. 

DATES: Effective May 23, 2022. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Ed Davis, Program Analyst, Office of 

Government-wide Policy, at 202–669– 

1653 or travelpolicy@gsa.gov for 

clarification of content. For information 

pertaining to status or publication 

schedules, contact the Regulatory 

Secretariat Division at 202–501–4755 or

Case 2020–301–1.’’ 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

GSA published a proposed rule at 86 

FR 50863 on September 13, 2021, to 

provide clarifications to rental car use 

policies and definitions. 

Agencies are authorized to provide 

eligible employees a miscellaneous 

expenses allowance (MEA) to defray 

some of the costs incurred while 

relocating. A non-exhaustive list of 

examples of MEAs can be found at FTR 

§ 302–16.2. While not specifically 

mentioned as an example of an MEA, 

agencies are allowed to provide 

reimbursement for relocating employees 

for rental car use while awaiting arrival 

of their privately owned vehicle (POV) 

due to shipment delay from or to 

OCONUS. The lack of specific mention 

of this type of miscellaneous expense in 

the FTR has caused agency confusion 

surrounding its authorization for 

reimbursement. 

The reimbursement of the cost of 

collision damage waiver (CDW) or theft 

insurance when renting a vehicle for 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
24064 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 78 / Friday, April 22, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

official travel was not allowed (FTR 

§ 301–10.451(b)). Employees required to 

travel OCONUS could be reimbursed for 

the cost of CDW or theft insurance, but 

not both. 

This was done in error when 

transliterating the FTR into plain 

language. It is only relevant to a few 

rentals in foreign areas where both types 

of insurance are required by law. 

The definition of types of vehicular 

power sources needed updating to 

replace ‘‘gas’’ and ‘‘gasoline’’ with the 

term ‘‘fuel,’’ and further defines fuel to 

account for other types of vehicular 

power sources, such as hydrogen, 

propane, and electricity. 

II. Discussion and Analysis 

GSA reviewed the public comments 

in discussion of the final rule. A 

discussion of the comments and 

changes made to the rule as a result of 

those comments are provided as follow: 

A. Summary of Changes 

This final rule makes the following 

changes from the proposed rule: 

• Updates the list of MEA examples 

in FTR § 302–16.2 to explicitly include 

discretionary rental car reimbursement 

due to OCONUS shipping delays and 

adds the caveat that such expense may 

only be authorized for up to 10 days. 

The 10 days exclude reimbursement for 

the days after a POV is delivered or a 

new POV is purchased at the location. 

Adds a new paragraph (f) under FTR 

§ 301–10.450 to clarify that a rental car 

is to be used for official purposes only 

and provides examples. 

• Updates FTR § 301–10.451 (b) to 

reflect that collision damage waiver 

(CDW) and theft insurance may be 

reimbursed when deemed necessary. 

• Clarifies the definition of OCONUS 

and adds it to the glossary of terms. 

OCONUS consists of foreign areas and 

non-foreign areas (unless otherwise 

qualified as ‘‘non-foreign OCONUS’’ or 

‘‘foreign OCONUS.’’) 

• Removes ‘‘Trust Territories of the 

Pacific Islands’’ from the definitions of 

‘‘Foreign area’’ and ‘‘Non-foreign area.’’ 

The Trust Territories of the Pacific 

Islands no longer exist. 

• Removes the terms ‘‘gas’’ and 

‘‘gasoline’’, where appropriate, and 

replaces it with the term ‘‘fuel’’, and 

further defines fuel to account for other 

types of vehicle power sources, such as 

hydrogen, propane, and electricity. 

B. Analysis of Public Comments 

GSA received comments from six 

commenters through the public 

comment process. 

1. One commenter suggested that GSA 

clarify that a POV must actually be 

shipped to claim rental expenses under 

the MEA and that shipment applies to 

both foreign area OCONUS and nonforeign area OCONUS. GSA modified 

the language in FTR part 302–16 to 

emphasize that a POV must be shipped 

and clarified that the allowance applies 

to both foreign area OCONUS and nonforeign area OCONUS. 

2. One commenter stated that an 

employee should get reimbursed for a 

rental car as well as fuel. The FTR 

currently permits reimbursement for 

authorized use of a rental car under FTR 

301–2.5(g). Fuel for rental vehicles is 

also an allowable transportation 

expense when incurred while on 

temporary duty travel. 

3. One commenter expressed general 

support for the rule and another 

commenter expressed support 

specifically for replacing the words 

‘‘gasoline’’ and ‘‘gas’’ with the term 

‘‘fuel’’, where appropriate. GSA 

concurs. 

4. One commenter had four 

suggestions: Amend the FTR to (1) allow 

employees to rent larger vehicles if 

needed for family size or larger amounts 

of cargo, (2) allow for use of a 

Government vehicle by authorized 

dependents, (3) include purchase of a 

POV as a reason to end rental car 

reimbursement, and (4) increase the size 

of the MEA or exclude rental car fees 

from the MEA expense limit. In 

response, GSA notes that: (1) The FTR 

currently allows agencies to authorize 

use of a larger class of rental vehicle 

when certain exceptions are met under 

FTR § 301–10.450, (2) the commenter’s 

suggested change to the Government 

vehicle regulations is outside the scope 

of this rule and will not be 

implemented, (3) GSA concurs with the 

suggestion and has made conforming 

changes to the rule in FTR § 302–16.2, 

and (4) MEA limitations regarding basic 

pay are done under the authority of 5 

U.S.C. 5738 and cannot be changed 

without further regulatory amendment. 

No changes to the rule will be made 

based on this suggestion. 

5. One commenter wanted 

clarification that employees returning 

from an OCONUS location would also 

be allowed a rental car reimbursement 

when their OCONUS shipments are 

delayed. GSA concurs that this was the 

intent of the change and the language in 

FTR part 302–16 has been clarified 

accordingly. The commenter also asked 

a procedural question unrelated to the 

regulation change, and which is 

answered in existing regulations. 

II. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 

13563 direct agencies to assess all costs 

and benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits 

(including potential economic, 

environmental, public health and safety 

effects, distributive impacts, and 

equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the 

importance of quantifying both costs 

and benefits, of reducing costs, of 

harmonizing rules, and of promoting 

flexibility. OIRA has determined that 

this is not a significant regulatory action 

and, therefore, was not subject to review 

under Section 6(b) of Executive Order 

12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, 

dated September 30, 1993. 

III. Congressional Review Act 

This rule is not a major rule under 5 

U.S.C. 804(2). Subtitle E of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 (codified at 5 

U.S.C. 801–808), also known as the 

Congressional Review Act or CRA, 

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. OIRA has determined 

that this final rule is not a ‘‘major rule’’ 

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

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

This final rule 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. 601, et seq. This 

final rule is also exempt from the 

Administrative Procedure Act pursuant 

to 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(2) because it applies 

to agency management or personnel. 

Therefore, an Initial Regulatory 

Flexibility Analysis was not performed. 

V. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Paperwork Reduction Act does 

not apply because the changes to the 

FTR do not impose recordkeeping or 

information collection requirements, or 

the collection of information from 

offerors, contractors, or members of the 

public that require the approval of the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.

States; Northeast Multispecies 

Fishery; Common Pool Fishery and 

Other Measures for Fishing Year 2022 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Temporary rule; possession and 

trip limit implementation. 

SUMMARY: This action implements 

measures for the Northeast multispecies 

common pool fishery and other 

measures under Regional Administrator 

authority for the 2022 fishing year. This 

action is necessary to ensure that the 

Northeast multispecies common pool 

fishery may achieve the optimum yield 

for the relevant stocks, while controlling 

catch to help prevent in-season closures 

or quota overages. These measures 

include possession and trip limits, the 

allocation of zero trips into the Closed 

Area II Yellowtail Flounder/Haddock 

Special Access Program for common 

pool vessels to target yellowtail 

flounder, and the closure of the Regular 

B Days-at-Sea Program. 

DATES: Effective at 0001 hours on May 

1, 2022, through April 30, 2023. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Spencer Talmage, Fishery Management 

Specialist, 978–281–9232. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Northeast Multispecies Fishery 

Management Plan (FMP) regulations 

allow the Regional Administrator to 

implement possession limits for the 

common pool fishery, the U.S./Canada 

Management Area, and Special 

Management Programs. This action 

implements a number of these 

management measures for the 2022 

fishing year, effective May 1, 2022. 

Common Pool Trip Limits 

Regulations at § 648.86(o) allow the 

Regional Administrator to implement or 

adjust a per-Day-at-Sea (DAS) 

possession limit and/or a maximum trip 

limit in order to prevent exceeding the 

common pool sub-annual catch limit 

(sub-ACL) in that fishing year. The 

possession and trip limits implemented 

for the start of the 2022 fishing year are 

included in Tables 1 and 2 below. These 

possession and trip limits were 

developed based on the common pool 

sub-ACLs set by Framework Adjustment 

61 to the Northeast Multispecies FMP 

(86 FR 40353, July 27, 2021) that will be 

in effect on May 1, 2022. We considered 

preliminary 2022 sector rosters, 

expected common pool participation, 

and common pool fishing activity in 

previous fishing years. Additionally, 

during its December 2021 meeting, the 

New England Fishery Management 

Council adopted Framework 

Adjustment 63 to the Northeast 

Multispecies FMP, which, if approved, 

would modify the common pool subACLs for several stocks. We are working 

to publish a proposed rule to request 

comment on Framework Adjustment 63. 

When developing the trip limits in this 

action, we took into account Council 

recommended sub-ACLs that may be 

implemented in Framework 63 to put in 

place trip limits on May 1, 2022, that 

would not result in the common pool 

exceeding any sub-ACLs or trimester 

total allowable catch (TAC). Based on 

this information, we project that these 

adjustments will facilitate optimized 

harvest of the common pool quotas, 

while preventing early trimester 

closures, and preventing catch from 

exceeding the 2022 fishing year subACLs. 

For Handgear A and Handgear B 

vessels, possession and trip limits for 

Georges Bank (GB) and Gulf of Maine 

(GOM) cod are tied to the possession 

and trip limits for groundfish DAS 

vessels. The default cod trip limit is 300 

lb (136 kg) for Handgear A vessels and 

75 lb (34 kg) for Handgear B vessels. If 

the GOM or GB cod limit for vessels 

fishing on a groundfish DAS drops 

below 300 lb (136 kg), then the 

respective Handgear A cod trip limit 

must be reduced to the same limit. 

Similarly, the Handgear B trip limit 

must be adjusted proportionally to the 

DAS limit (rounded up to the nearest 25 

lb (11 kg)). In accordance with this 

process, the Handgear A and Handgear 

B possession and trip limits for GB and 

GOM cod are as listed below in Table 

2. 

Vessels with a Small Vessel category 

permit can possess up to 300 lb (136 kg) 

of cod, haddock, and yellowtail 

flounder, combined, per trip. 

Additionally, for these vessels, the trip 

limit for all stocks is equal to the 

landing limits per DAS applicable to 

multispecies DAS vessels. This is 

necessary to ensure that the trip limit 

applicable to the Small Vessel category 

permit is consistent with the trip limits 

for other common pool vessels, as 

described above. 

Weekly quota monitoring reports for 

the common pool fishery can be found 

on our website at: https://

www.greateratlantic.fisheries.noaa.gov/ 

ro/fso/reports/h/nemultispecies.html. 

We will continue to monitor common 

pool catch through vessel trip reports, 

dealer-reported landings, vessel 

monitoring system catch reports, and 

other available information and, if 

necessary, we will make additional 

adjustments to common pool 

management measures.
