Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 90 / Wednesday, May 8, 1996 / Proposed Rules 20779

statement, including a cost-benefit

analysis, for proposed and final rules

with ‘‘Federal mandates’’ that may

result in expenditures to State, local,

and tribal governments, in the aggregate,

or to the private sector, of $100 million

or more in any one year. Under section

203 of the UMRA, before EPA

establishes any regulatory requirements

that may significantly or uniquely affect

small governments, including tribal

governments, it must develop a small

government agency plan.

The intended purpose of this

proposed rule is to relax existing

regulatory requirements, rather than to

impose any new enforceable duties on

State, local, or tribal governments or the

private sector. In any event, EPA has

determined that none of the options

discussed in this proposal would, if

adopted, include any Federal mandate

that may result in expenditures of $100

million or more for State, local, and

tribal governments, in the aggregate, or

the private sector in any one year. EPA

has also determined that none of the

options discussed in this proposal

might, if adopted, significantly or

uniquely affect small governments.

Adjustment of Reid Vapor Pressure

Lower Limit for Reformulated Gasoline

Sold in the State of California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: In this action, EPA is

proposing to amend the lower limit of

the valid range for Reid Vapor Pressure

(RVP) for reformulated gasoline certified

under the simple model and sold in the

State of California. The lower limit is

proposed to be changed from 6.6

pounds per square inch (psi) to 6.4 psi.

In the final rules section of this Federal

Register, EPA is promulgating this

amendment as a direct final rule

without prior proposal, because EPA

views this as a noncontroversial action

and anticipates no adverse comments. A

detailed rationale for the proposed

change is set forth in the direct final

rule. If no adverse comments are

received in response to the direct final

rule, no further activity is contemplated

in relation to this proposed rule. If EPA

receives adverse comments, the direct

final rule will be withdrawn and all

public comments received will be

addressed in a subsequent final rule

based on this proposed rule. EPA will

not institute a second comment period

on this action. Any parties interested in

commenting on this notice should do so

at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule

must be received by June 7, 1996.

Reduced Certification Reporting

Requirements for New Nonroad

Engines

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: Today’s action proposes to

revise certification requirements for new

nonroad spark-ignition engines at or

below 19 kilowatts (60 FR 34582), and

new nonroad compression-ignition

engines at or above 37 kilowatts (59 FR

31306), by reducing the reporting

burden associated with the application

for certification.

In the final rule section of today’s

Federal Register, EPA is issuing these

revisions as a direct final rule without

prior proposal because EPA views the

action as noncontroversial and

anticipates no adverse comments. A

detailed rationale for the revisions is set

forth in the direct final rule. If no

adverse comments are received in

response to that direct final rule, no

further activity is contemplated in

relation to this proposed rule. If EPA

receives adverse public comment on any

of the specific issues identified in the

direct final rule, EPA will publish one

action withdrawing the provisions of

the final action corresponding to that

specific issue, and all adverse public

comments received will be addressed in

a subsequent final rule based on this

proposed rule. EPA will not institute a

second comment period on this action.

Any parties interested on commenting

on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before June 7, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be submitted (in duplicate, if possible)
