quality, usefulness, and clarity of the information; and how we can minimize the burden of collection. If you submit comments on the collection of information, submit them both to OMB and to the Docket Management Facility where indicated under ADDRESSES, by the date under DATES. The Coast Guard has received emergency approval from OMB on the collection of information requirements (OMB approval number 2115–0643). This emergency OMB approval is effective until March 31, 2000. Federalism We have analyzed this temporary rule under E.O. 13132 and have determined that this rule does not have implications for federalism under that order. Unfunded Mandates The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) governs the issuance of Federal regulations that require unfunded mandates. An unfunded mandate is a regulation that requires a State, local, or tribal government or the private sector to incur direct costs without the Federal Government’s having first provided the funds to pay those costs. This temporary rule would not impose an unfunded mandate. Taking of Private Property This temporary rule would not effect a taking of private property or otherwise have taking implications under E.O. 12630, Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property Rights. Civil Justice Reform This temporary rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of E.O. 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden. Protection of Children We have analyzed this temporary rule under E.O. 13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and does not concern an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may disproportionately affect children. Environment We considered the environmental impact of this temporary rule and concluded that, under figure 2–1, paragraph (34)(i), of Commandant Instruction M16475.lC, this rule is categorically excluded from further environmental documentation. This rule establishes temporary reporting requirements that will assist the Coast Guard in assessing Y2K-related risks. A ‘‘Categorical Exclusion Determination’’ is available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

70977, Southwest Station, Washington, D.C. 20024. Telephone: (202) 707–8380. Telefax: (202) 252–3423. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 29, 1999, the President signed into law the Intellectual Property and Communications Omnibus Reform Act. Title I of that legislation, the ‘‘Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act of 1999,’’ amends section 119 of the Copyright Act to, among other things, reduce the royalty fees paid under the satellite carrier statutory license. In October of 1997, pursuant to the Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel process, the Librarian of Congress adjusted the royalty rates of the satellite license to 27 cents per subscriber per month for the retransmission of a network station and 27 cents per subscriber per month for the retransmission of a superstation. 62 FR 55742 (October 28, 1997). The Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act reduces these rates by 45 percent for a network station and 30 percent for a superstation. 17 U.S.C. 119(c)(4) (A) and (B). Consequently, the new rates are 14.85 cents per subscriber per month for each network station retransmitted by a satellite carrier and 18.9 cents per subscriber per month for each superstation retransmitted by a satellite carrier. The Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act also amends the section 119 satellite license to include retransmissions of the Public Broadcasting Service satellite feed, which is not a television broadcast station. The Public Broadcasting Service satellite feed is treated like a network station for purposes of the royalty fee, and therefore incurs the 14.85-cent fee. The section 119 license for the Public Broadcasting Service satellite feed, however, is in effect only until January 1, 2002. List of Subjects in 37 CFR Part 258 Copyright, Satellite, Television. Final Regulations For the reasons set out in the preamble, chapter II of title 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations is to be amended as follows: PART 258—ADJUSTMENT OF ROYALTY FEE FOR SECONDARY TRANSMISSIONS BY SATELLITE CARRIERS 1. The authority citation for part 258 reads as follows:
* * * * (c) Commencing July 1, 1999, the royalty rate for secondary transmission of broadcast stations for private home viewing by satellite carriers shall be as follows: (1) 18.9 cents per subscriber per month for distant superstations. (2) 14.85 cents per subscriber per month for distant network stations. (3) 14.85 cents per subscriber per month for the Public Broadcasting Service satellite feed.

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Direct final rule. SUMMARY: EPA is taking direct final action on revisions to the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revisions concern rule rescissions from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). This approval action will rescind these rules from the federally approved SIP.

EPA is finalizing the approval of these rule rescissions from the California SIP under provisions of the CAA regarding EPA action on SIP submittals, SIPs for national primary and secondary ambient air quality standards and plan requirements for nonattainment areas. DATES: This rule is effective on February 22, 2000 without further notice, unless
EPA receives adverse comments by January 21, 2000. If EPA receives such comment, it will publish a timely withdrawal Federal Register informing the public that this rule will not take effect.
