DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION 

34 CFR Chapter VI 

Regulatory Reform; Public Hearings 

AGENCY: Office of Postsecondary 

Education, Department of Education. 

ACTION: Notification of public hearings. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with Executive 

Order 13777, ‘‘Enforcing the Regulatory 

Reform Agenda,’’ the Department of 

Education (Department) is seeking input 

on Department regulations related to 

postsecondary education that may be 

appropriate for repeal, replacement, or 

modification. We announce two public 

hearings at which interested parties may 

provide input. 

DATES: The dates, times, and locations 

of the public hearings are listed under 

the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section 

of this document. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

further information on this document 

contact: Wendy Macias, U.S. 

Department of Education, 400 Maryland 

Ave. SW., Room 6C111, Washington, DC 

20202. Telephone: (202) 203–9155 or by 

email: Wendy.Macias@ed.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

February 24, 2017, President Trump 

signed Executive Order 13777, 

‘‘Enforcing the Regulatory Reform 

Agenda,’’ which established a Federal 

policy ‘‘to alleviate unnecessary 

regulatory burdens’’ on the American 

people. Section 3(a) of the Executive 

Order directs Federal agencies to 

establish a Regulatory Reform Task 

Force (Task Force). One of the duties of 

an agency Task Force is to evaluate 

existing regulations and ‘‘make 

recommendations to the agency head 

regarding their repeal, replacement, or 

modification.’’ The Executive Order 

further asks that each Task Force 

‘‘attempt to identify regulations that: 

(i) Eliminate jobs, or inhibit job 

creation; 

(ii) Are outdated, unnecessary, or 

ineffective; 

(iii) Impose costs that exceed benefits; 

(iv) Create a serious inconsistency or 

otherwise interfere with regulatory 

reform initiatives and policies; 

(v) Are inconsistent with the 

requirements of section 515 of the 

Treasury and General Government 

Appropriations Act, 2001 (44 U.S.C. 

3516 note), or the guidance issued 

pursuant to that provision, in particular 

those regulations that rely in whole or 

in part on data, information, or methods 

that are not publicly available or that are 

insufficiently transparent to meet the 

standard for reproducibility; or 

(vi) Derive from or implement 

Executive Orders or other Presidential 

directives that have been subsequently 

rescinded or substantially modified.’’ 

Section 3(e) of the Executive Order 

calls on each Task Force to ‘‘seek input 

and other assistance, as permitted by 

law, from entities significantly affected 

by Federal regulations, including State, 

local, and tribal governments, small 

businesses, consumers, nongovernmental organizations, and trade 

associations’’ on regulations that meet 

some or all of the criteria above. A 

‘‘regulation’’ for this purpose ‘‘means an 

agency statement of general or particular 

applicability and future effect designed 

to implement, interpret, or prescribe law 

or policy or to describe the procedure or 

practice requirements of an 

agency. . . .’’ See Executive Order 

13771, section 4. 

On June 22, 2017, the Department 

published a notice in the Federal 

Register (82 FR 28431) soliciting written 

comments from the public to inform its 

Task Force’s evaluation of all of the 

Department’s existing regulations and 

guidance, including regulations and

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 164 / Friday, August 25, 2017 / Proposed Rules 40519 

guidance related to postsecondary 

education programs, that have a policy 

impact. We are now announcing two 

public hearings that will supplement 

this effort by seeking public input on 

Department regulations and guidance 

specific to postsecondary education 

programs that may be appropriate for 

repeal, replacement, or modification. 

This includes regulations and guidance 

for the Federal Student Aid programs 

authorized under title IV of the Higher 

Education Act of 1965, as amended, as 

well as regulations and guidance for the 

institutional service, international and 

foreign language education, and student 

service programs. 

Public Hearings 

We will hold two public hearings: 

• September 26, 2017, at Salt Lake 

Community College—Miller Campus, 

9750 South 300 West, Karen Gail Miller 

Conference Center, Copper Creek Room 

A&B, Sandy, Utah 84070. 

• October 4, 2017, at the U.S. 

Department of Education, 400 Maryland 

Ave. SW., Barnard Auditorium, 

Washington, DC 20202. 

The public hearings will be held from 

9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., local time. 

Individuals who would like to present 

comments at the public hearings must 

register by sending an email to 

operegreformhearings@ed.gov. The 

email should include the name of the 

presenter along with the public hearing 

at which the individual would like to 

speak, the general topic(s) the 

individual would like to address, and a 

general timeframe during which the 

individual would like to speak (for 

example, a presenter could indicate 

morning or afternoon, or before 11:00 

a.m. or after 3:00 p.m.). We will attempt 

to accommodate each speaker’s 

preference, but, if we are unable to do 

so, we will make the determination on 

a first-come first-served basis, based on 

the time and date the email was 

received. It is likely that each 

participant will be limited to five 

minutes. The Department will notify 

registrants of the location and time slot 

reserved for them. An individual may 

make only one presentation at the 

public hearings. If we receive more 

registrations than we are able to 

accommodate, the Department reserves 

the right to reject the registration of an 

entity or individual that is affiliated 

with an entity or individual that is 

already scheduled to present comments, 

and to select among registrants to ensure 

that a broad range of entities and 

individuals is allowed to present. We 

will accept walk-in registrations for any 

remaining time slots on a first-come 

first-served basis, beginning at 8:30 a.m. 

on the day of the public hearing at the 

Department’s on-site registration table. 

Registration is not required to observe 

the public hearings; however, space may 

be limited. 

The Department will post transcripts 

of the hearings to https://www2.ed.gov/ 

policy/highered/reg/reform/2017/ 

index.html. Although the Department 

will not be videoing the hearings, as this 

is a public meeting, speakers should be 

aware that they may be filmed or 

recorded by members of the public.

disabilities can obtain this document in

Region 7] 

Air Plan Approval; Iowa; Amendment 

to the Administrative Consent Order, 

Grain Processing Corporation, 

Muscatine, Iowa 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

revision to the State Implementation 

Plan (SIP) submitted by the State of 

Iowa for the purpose of incorporating an 

amendment to the Administrative 

Consent Order (ACO), Grain Processing 

Corporation (GPC), Muscatine, Iowa. 

The revision amends the ACO to change 

the date for completion of performance 

testing to allow the state more time to 

complete processing air construction 

permit applications submitted by GPC 

and specify testing requirements as 

appropriate in the final permits. This 

revision will not impact the schedule 

for installation and operation of control 

equipment, will not alter any other 

compliance dates, and will not 

adversely affect air quality in 

Muscatine, Iowa. In the ‘‘Rules and 

Regulations’’ section of this Federal 

Register, we are approving the state’s 

SIP revisions as a direct final rule 

without a prior proposed rule. If we 

receive no adverse comment, we will 

not take further action on this proposed 

rule. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

September 25, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R07– 

OAR–2017–0143, to http://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or removed from Regulations.gov. 

The EPA may publish any comment 

received to its public docket. Do not 

submit electronically any information 

you consider to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI) or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Multimedia 

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be 

accompanied by a written comment. 

The written comment is considered the 

official comment and should include 

discussion of all points you wish to 

make. The EPA will generally not 

consider comments or comment 

contents located outside of the primary 

submission (i.e. on the web, cloud, or 

other file sharing system). For 

additional submission methods, the full 

EPA public comment policy, 

information about CBI or multimedia 

submissions, and general guidance on 

making effective comments, please visit
