B. Executive Order 12866

The Office of Management and Budget

has exempted this action from Executive

Order 12866 review.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The EPA’s actions under section 502

of the Act do not create any new

requirements, but simply address

operating permits programs submitted

to satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR

part 70. Because this action does not

impose any new requirements, it does

not have a significant impact on a

substantial number of small entities.

National Oil and Hazardous

Substances Pollution Contingency

Plan National Priorities List

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of Deletion Amnicola

Dump Superfund Site Chattanooga,

Tennessee from the National Priorities

List.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) Region 4 announces the

deletion of the Amnicola Dump

Superfund Site from the National

Priorities List (NPL), Appendix B of 40

CFR Part 300 which is the National Oil

and Hazardous Substances Pollution

Contingency Plan (NCP). EPA and the

State have determined that all

appropriate Fund-financed responses

under the Comprehensive

Environmental Response,

Compensation, and Liability Act

(CERCLA), as amended, have been

implemented and that no further

cleanup is appropriate. Moveover, EPA

and the State have determined that

remedial actions conducted at the site to

date have been protective of public

health, welfare and the environment.

This deletion does not preclude future

action under Superfund.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 15, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Robert West, Remedial Project Manager,

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,

Region 4, North Superfund Remedial

Branch, 345 Courtland Street, N.E.,

Atlanta, Georgia 30365, (404) 347–7791,

extension 2033.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Site

to be deleted from the NPL is: Amnicola

Dump Superfund Site in Chattanooga,

Tennessee.

A Notice of Intent to Delete for this

site was published on February 22,

1996, (FR–5436–5). The closing date for

comments on the Notice of Intent to

Delete was March 22, 1996. EPA

received no comments.

EPA identifies sites that appear to

present a significant risk to the public

health, welfare and the environment

and it maintains the NPL as the list of

those sites. Any site deleted from the

NPL remains eligible for Fund-financed

remedial actions in the future. Section

300.425(e)(3) of the NCP states that

Fund-financed actions may be taken at

sites deleted from the NPL. Deletion of

a site from the NPL does not affect

responsible party liability or impede

agency efforts to recover costs

associated with response efforts.

[CS Docket No. 96–85, FCC 96–154]

Telecommunications Act of 1996

AGENCY: Federal Communications

Commission.

ACTION: Interim and final rules.

SUMMARY: This Order implements

sections of the Telecommunications Act

of 1996 (‘‘1996 Act’’). The Order

establishes rules conforming the

Commission’s rules to statutory

mandates that became effective upon

enactment of the 1996 Act. Although all

rules promulgated pursuant to this

Order are ‘‘final,’’ the Commission

recognizes that some rules, apart from

those implementing the explicit

language of the 1996 Act, should be

viewed as ‘‘interim’’ rules subject to

revision in the near future based on

comments and information received in

an associated Notice of Proposed

Rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’) that has been

released concurrently with this Order

and published in this issue of the

Federal Register. This Order

implements rules related to the 1996

Act’s cable reform provisions, including

the definition of effective competition,

the cable rate complaint process, the

sunset of cable programming service tier

regulation, small cable operators,

uniform rate requirements, subscriber

notice of service and rate changes,

technical standards, cable system buy

out restrictions, program access, the

definitions of cable system and cable
