information about the site at the Tooele 

City Public Library, 128 West Vine 

Street, Tooele, Utah. Public interviews 

were conducted, ties with local officials 

were established, and an avenue created 

to address local questions and concerns 

through the appointment of a 

Community Involvement Coordinator. 

Numerous community meetings were 

held to inform and invite public 

comment on site-wide remedies, and 

discussions included the cleanup of the 

UPRR right-of-way in January, March, 

May and June of 1999. 

Public participation activities have 

been satisfied as required in sections 

113(k), and 117 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 

9613(k) and 9617. Documents in the 

deletion docket, which EPA relied on 

for recommendation of the partial 

deletion from the NPL, are available to 

the public in the information 

repositories. 

V. Partial Deletion Action 

The EPA, with concurrence of the 

State of Utah, has determined that all 

appropriate responses under CERCLA 

for the referenced property have been 

completed and that no further response 

actions under CERCLA are necessary. 

Because EPA considers this action to 

be non-controversial and routine, EPA is 

taking it without prior publication. This 

action will be effective November 29, 

2005 unless EPA receives adverse 

comments by October 31, 2005 on a 

parallel notice of intent to delete 

published in the ‘‘Proposed Rules’’

section of today’s Federal Register. If 

adverse comments are received within 

the 30-day public comment period, EPA 

will publish a timely withdrawal of this 

direct final notice of partial deletion 

before the effective date of the deletion 

and it will not take effect. EPA will 

simultaneously prepare a response to 

comments and continue with the partial 

deletion process on the basis of the 

notice of intent to partially delete and 

the comments already received. There 

will be no additional opportunity to 

comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In FR Doc. 05–15406 (70 FR 47278), 

the final rule entitled ‘‘Changes to the 

Hospital Inpatient Prospective Payment 

Systems and Fiscal Year 2006 Rates’’

(hereinafter referred to as the FY 2006 

final rule), there were a number of 

typographical and technical errors that 

are identified and corrected in the 

‘‘Correction of Errors’’ section (section 

III. of this notice). The provisions of this 

correction notice are effective as if they 

had been included in the FY 2006 final 

rule. Accordingly, the corrections are 

effective October 1, 2005. 

II. Summary of the Corrections to the 

FY 2006 Final Rule 

On page 47292, in our preamble 

discussion regarding cardiac 

catheterizations for DRGs 535 and 536, 

we stated that we are removing code 

37.26 from DRGs 535 and 536 and then 

erroneously stated that we are adding 

code 37.26 to DRG 515. Therefore, we 

are revising this discussion by deleting 

the phrase ‘‘and adding the code in DRG 

515.’’ (See item 2 of section III.A. of this 

notice.) 

On page 47312, in our preamble 

discussion regarding the ‘‘Tobacco Use 

Disorder Edit’’, we stated the incorrect 

Medicare code editor (MCE) edit to 

which we added code 305.1. Although 

our national coverage determination on 

smoking cessation counseling services 

provides that we never cover tobacco 

cessation services when code 305.1 is 

reported as the principal diagnosis, we 

erroneously stated that code 305.1 

would be added to the MCE edit 

‘‘Questionable Admission—Principal 

57162 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 189 / Friday, September 30, 2005 / Rules and Regulations 

Diagnosis Only.’’ Therefore, we are 

revising this discussion by replacing the 

incorrect MCE edit, ‘‘Questionable 

Admission—Principal Diagnosis Only,’’

with the correct MCE edit, 

‘‘Unacceptable Principal Diagnosis.’’

(See item 3 of section III.A. of this 

notice.) 

On page 47444, in our preamble 

discussion regarding Medicare 

Geographic Reclassification Review 

Board (MGCRB) reclassification for 

urban hospitals, we made typographical 

errors in our citations to the regulations 

text. In addition, on pages 47486 and 

47487, our amendment to the 

regulations text contained technical 

errors. In this notice, we are revising the 

relevant preamble and regulations text. 

(See item 7 of section III.A. and items 

1 and 2a of section III.B. of this notice.) 

On page 47445, we made incorrect 

references in our preamble discussion 

regarding the date by which the MGCRB 

has to make its reclassification 

decisions. We are revising this 

discussion to clarify that the MGCRB 

has 180 days in which to make its 

reclassification decision. (See item 8 of 

section III.A. of this notice.) 

On pages 47477 and 47478, in the 

column heading of the chart displaying 

information regarding diagnosis-related 

groups (DRGs) that recognize major 

cardiovascular conditions (MCVs), we 

erroneously included new DRGs whose 

titles include ‘‘without MCV.’’ We are 

revising this heading to include only 

those DRGs that recognize MCVs. (See 

item 10 of section III.A. of this notice.) 

On pages 47589 and 47596, in Table 

4A, we made errors in the calculation of 

the wage indexes and geographic 

adjustment factors for 2 core-based 

statistical areas (CBSAs). Accordingly, 

we are correcting this table to include 

the correct wage indexes and geographic 

adjustment factors (GAFs) for these 

CBSAs. We are also correcting the wage 

index values listed in Table 2 for the 

affected providers. (See items 1 and 2 of 

section III.C. of this notice.) In addition, 

the wage index data for a provider were 

erroneously omitted from the wage 

index calculation. This error affects 

hospitals geographically located in and 

reclassifying to the Houston-Sugar 

Land-Baytown, TX CBSA. Accordingly, 

we are revising Tables 2, 4A, and 4C to 

reflect the correct information. (See 

items 1, 2, and 4 of section III.C. of this 

notice.) Similarly, another provider’s 

wage data were erroneously omitted 

from the wage index calculation that 

affects hospitals geographically located 

in and reclassifying to the NashvilleDavidson-Murfreesboro, TN CBSA. 

Therefore, we are including the 

corrected data in Tables 2, 4A, and 4C. 

(See items 1, 2, and 4 of section III.C. 

of this notice.) 

On page 47604 on Table 4B we made 

an error in the calculation of the wage 

index and geographic adjustment factor 

for rural Washington. (See item 3 of 

section III.C. of this notice.) Therefore, 

we are correcting the wage index and 

GAF values listed for the 5 CBSAs in 

Table 4A that receive the Washington 

rural floor and we are also correcting the 

wage index values listed in Table 2 for 

the affected providers (See items 1 and 

2 of section III.C. of this notice). 

On page 47611, in Table 4J, we made 

a number of typographical errors in a 

group of the provider numbers listed. In 

this notice, we are correcting these 

errors. (See item 5 of section III.C. of 

this notice.) 

On page 47675, in Table 9A, we 

inadvertently reclassified a provider to 

the incorrect CBSA. In addition, in 

Table 2, we also inadvertently listed the 

incorrect wage index for this provider. 

Accordingly, we are revising both of 

these tables to reflect the correct 

information for this provider. (See items 

1 and 8 of section III.C. of this notice). 

We are also correcting typographical, 

formatting or other errors that appear on 

other pages of the FY 2006 final rule.

III. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking 

and Delay in Effective Date 

We ordinarily publish a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register to provide a period for public 

comment before the provisions of a rule 

take effect in accordance with section 

553(b) of the Administrative Procedure 

Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). However, 

we can waive the notice and comment 

procedures if the Secretary finds, for 

good cause, that the notice and 

comment process is impracticable, 

unnecessary or contrary to the public 

interest, and incorporates a statement of 

the finding and the reasons therefore in 

the notice. We can also waive the 30- 

day delay in effective date under the 

APA (5 U.S.C. 553(d)) when there is 

good cause to do so and we publish in 

the rule an explanation of our good 

cause. 

The policies and payment 

methodology expressed in the FY 2006 

final rule have previously been 

subjected to notice and comment 

procedures. This correction notice 

merely corrects typographical and 

technical errors in the preamble, 

regulations text, and addendum of the 

FY 2006 final rule and does not make 

substantive changes to the policies or 

payment methodologies that were 

adopted in the final rule. As a result, 

this correction notice is intended to 

ensure that the FY 2006 final rule 

accurately reflects the policies adopted 

in the final rule. Therefore, we find that 

undertaking further notice and comment 

procedures to incorporate these 

corrections into the final rule is 

unnecessary and contrary to the public 

interest. 

For the same reasons, we are also 

waiving the 30-day delay in effective 

date for this correction notice. We 

believe that it is in the public interest 

to ensure that the FY 2006 final rule 

accurately represents our prospective 

payment methodology, payment rates, 

and policies. Thus delaying the effective 

date of these corrections would be 

contrary to the public interest. 

Therefore, we also find good cause to 

waive the 30-day delay in effective date.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In FR Doc. 05–15221, (70 FR 45026), 

the final rule entitled ‘‘Medicare 

Program; Prospective Payment System 

and Consolidated Billing for Skilled 

Nursing Facilities for FY 2006’’

(hereinafter referred to as the FY 2006 

final rule), there were a number of 

typographical and technical errors that 

are identified and corrected in section 

III. ‘‘Correction of Errors’’ below. The 

provisions of this correction notice are 

effective as if they had been included in 

the FY 2006 final rule. Accordingly, the 

corrections are effective on October 1, 

2005. 

II. Summary of the Corrections to the 

FY 2006 Final Rule 

A. Corrections to the Preamble of the FY 

2006 Final Rule 

On pages 45046 and 45047, in the 

preamble discussion of the SNF market 

basket index, we inadvertently included 

incorrect values in the column labeled 

‘‘Relative importance, labor-related, FY 

2005 (97 index).’’ Therefore, we are 

revising the second column in Table 11 

(‘‘Labor-Related Relative Importance, FY 

2005 and FY 2006’’) to include the 

correct values for the labor share 

estimate for FY 2005 based on the 2nd 

quarter 2004 projection. (See item 1 of 

section III.A of this notice.) 

B. Corrections to the Regulations Text of 

the FY 2006 Final Rule 

On page 45055, we made a technical 

error in the regulations text of title 42, 

part 411. In this paragraph, we 

inadvertently excluded the updated 

statutory authority citation for this part. 

As revised by FR Doc. 05–1321 entitled 

‘‘Medicare Program; Medicare 

Prescription Drug Benefit’’ (70 FR 4525, 

January 28, 2005), in this notice we are 

correcting the regulations text to include 

Secs. 1102, 1860D–1 through D–42, and 

1871 of the Social Security Act (42 

U.S.C. 1302, 1395w–101 through 

1395w–152, and 1395hh). Accordingly, 

we are now republishing the corrected 

statutory authority citation for part 411, 

as revised by FR Doc. 05–1321. (See 

item 1 of section III. B. of this notice.) 

Also on page 45055, in our revisions 

to two different sections of the 

regulations text in part 424 of the FY 

2006 final rule, we inadvertently 

omitted a subpart heading. Specifically, 

revised § 424.3 and § 424.20 were both 

displayed as being included within 

subpart B of part 424 (‘‘Certification and 

Plan of Treatment Requirements’’). In 

fact, only § 424.20 is included within 

that subpart, while § 424.3 is included 

within subpart A (‘‘General 

Provisions’’). (See items 2 and 3 of 

section III. B. of this notice.) 

C. Corrections of Errors to the 

Addendum of the FY 2006 Final Rule 

Wage index data for two providers 

were erroneously omitted from the wage 

index calculation. This affected the 

wage index determination for the 

Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, TX 

CBSA and the Nashville-DavidsonMurfreesboro, TN CBSA. Accordingly,
