# ACTION:

Final rule; corrections. 

# SUMMARY:

                        This action corrects and clarifies certain text of the final rule entitled “Standards of Performance for New and Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Steam Generating                               ( print page 51267)                            Units.” The final rule was published in the                         **Federal Register**                         on May 18, 2005 (70 FR 28606).                     

This action corrects certain section designations set forth in the final rule at 70 FR 28652. In addition, this action corrects certain revisions set forth in the final rule at 70 FR 28678. These corrections do not affect the substance of the action, nor do they change the rights or obligations of any party. Rather, this action merely corrects certain section designations to eliminate duplication with other rules. Thus, it is proper to issue these final rule corrections without notice and comment. 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 rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. We have determined that there is good cause for making this action final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment because the changes to the rule are minor technical corrections, are noncontroversial, and do not substantively change the agency actions taken in the final rule. Thus, notice and public procedure are unnecessary. We find that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).

# FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

                        Mr. William Maxwell, Combustion Group, Emission Standards Division (C439-01), EPA, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, 27711; telephone number (919) 541-5430; fax number (919) 541-5450; electronic mail address:                         *maxwell.bill@epa.gov.*

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. What Is the Background for the Corrections? 

                    On May 18, 2005 (70 FR 28606), EPA issued a final rule in which EPA promulgated new source performance standards for new coal-fired electric utility steam generating units and emission guidelines for existing coal-fired electric utility steam generating units designed to limit mercury (Hg) emissions from such sources. EPA subsequently determined that certain sections of the final rule were not properly designated,                     *i.e.*, the numbering was not correct, and that certain rule text was not properly identified as introductory text. This action corrects those technical errors.                 

## II. What Are the Corrections to Final Rule (70 FR 28652, 27678)? 

                    This notice corrects the following errors. In inserting a section to 40 CFR part 60, subpart Da (                    *e.g.*, 40 CFR 60.45a), to incorporate emission limitations for Hg, subsequent sections were renumbered. In so doing, we inadvertently assigned section numbers to 40 CFR part 60, subpart Da, that were already in use in 40 CFR part 60, subpart Ea. To correct this error, it is necessary to renumber all of the sections in 40 CFR part 60, subpart Da, and to correct the associated internal references in the same manner. Further, in revising 40 CFR 75.6, we inadvertently indicated that we were revising entire paragraphs, rather than just the introductory text.                 

## III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

                    Under Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this action is not a “significant regulatory action” and is, therefore, not subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). This action is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The technical corrections do not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501*et seq.*). Because EPA has made a “good cause” finding that this action is not subject to notice and comment requirements under the APA or any other statute, it is not subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601*et seq.*), or to sections 202 and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104B4). In addition, this action does not significantly or uniquely affect small governments or impose a significant intergovernmental mandate, as described in sections 203 and 204 of the UMRA.                 

The corrections do not have substantial direct effects on the States, or on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132, Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). 

Today's action also does not significantly or uniquely affect the communities of Tribal governments, as specified in Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). The technical corrections also are not subject to Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) because this action is not economically significant. 

The corrections are not subject to Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) because this action is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866. 

The corrections do not involve changes to the technical standards related to test methods or monitoring methods; thus, the requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272) do not apply. 

The corrections also do not involve special consideration of environmental justice-related issues as required by Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

                    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801*et seq.*, as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 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 U.S. EPA will submit a report containing today's final action and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the U.S. prior to publication of today's action in the                     **Federal Register**                    . Today's action is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The final rule will be effective on May 18, 2005.                 

                    EPA's compliance with the above statutes and EO for the underlying rule is discussed in the May 18, 2005                     **Federal Register**                     notice containing “Standards of Performance for New and Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Steam Generating Units” (70 FR 28606).
