The NRC is amending its regulations in parts 26, 30, 40, 50, 70, 73, and 110 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) to make miscellaneous corrections. These changes include removing obsolete language and correcting references, an appendix, operating hours, a telephone number, an inconsistency in a definition, and an office title. This document is necessary to inform the public of these non-
substantive amendments to the NRC's regulations.
Correct an Inconsistency. In Sec. 26.5, this final rule revises the last sentence in the definition of Positive result to correct an inconsistency between the definition and the requirement in Sec. 26.103 by replacing the word ``exceeds'' with the phrase ``is equal to or greater than''.
Remove Obsolete Language. In Sec. Sec. 26.183(a) and 26.187(a), this final rule revises the language to remove an expired deadline for submission with the original final rule.
10 CFR Parts 30, 40, and 50
Correct Reference. In Sec. Sec. 30.7, 40.7, and 50.7, this final rule removes the incorrect reference to ``10 CFR 19.11(c)'' for NRC Form 3 and replaces it with the correct reference to ``10 CFR 19.11(e)(1).''
Correct Missing Reference. In Sec. 50.8(b), this final rule adds Sec. 50.12, in numerical order, to the list of sections in 10 CFR part 50 that contain information collections.
Correct Reference. In Sec. 70.38(k)(4), this final rule removes the incorrect reference to ``Sec. 70.51(b)(6)'' and replaces it with the correct reference to ``Sec. 70.51(a).''
Correct Appendix F. In appendix F to 10 CFR part 73, this final rule corrects the title of the appendix, updates footnote 1 to reference the International Atomic Energy Agency's website for current information, and corrects the current list of ratified countries and organizations participating in the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material.
Correct Operating Hours. In Sec. 110.2, this final rule removes the incorrect operating hours of between ``8:30 a.m. and 4:15 p.m.'' and replaces it with the correct operating hours of between ``8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.'' for reference service and access to documents requested by telephone as described in the definition for the NRC Public Document Room.
Correct Telephone Number. In Sec. 110.4, this final rule removes the incorrect telephone number ``(301) 415-2344'' and replaces it with the correct telephone number ``301-287-9057'' for the Deputy Director of the Office of International Programs.
Correct Office Title. In Sec. 110.6(b), this final rule removes the incorrect Department of Energy (DOE) office title ``Office of International Regimes and Agreements'' and replaces it with the correct DOE office title ``Office of Nonproliferation and Arms Control.''
Under section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)), an agency may waive the requirements for publication in the Federal Register of a notice of proposed rulemaking and opportunity for comment if it finds, for good cause, that it is impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. As authorized by 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the NRC finds good cause to waive notice and opportunity for comment on these amendments, because notice and opportunity for comment is unnecessary. The amendments will have no substantive impact and are of

a minor and administrative nature dealing with corrections to certain CFR sections or are related only to management, organization, procedure, and practice. These changes include removing obsolete language and correcting references, an appendix, operating hours, a telephone number, an inconsistency in a definition, and an office title. The Commission is exercising its authority under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) to publish these amendments as a final rule. The amendments are effective December 20, 2018. These amendments do not require action by any person or entity regulated by the NRC, and do not change the substantive responsibilities of any person or entity regulated by the NRC.
The NRC has determined that this final rule is the type of action described in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(2), which categorically excludes from environmental review rules that are corrective or of a minor, nonpolicy nature and do not substantially modify existing regulations. Therefore, neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment has been prepared for this rule.
This final rule does not contain a collection of information as defined in the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and, therefore, is not subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
The Plain Writing Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-274) requires Federal agencies to write documents in a clear, concise, and well-organized manner. The NRC has written this document to be consistent with the Plain Writing Act as well as the Presidential Memorandum, ``Plain Language in Government Writing,'' published June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31883).
The NRC has determined that the corrections in this final rule do not constitute backfitting and are not inconsistent with any of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. These changes include removing obsolete language and correcting references, an appendix, operating hours, a telephone number, an inconsistency in a definition, and an office title. They impose no new requirements and make no substantive changes to the regulations. The corrections do not involve any provisions that would impose backfits as defined in 10 CFR chapter I or that would be inconsistent with the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. For these reasons, the issuance of the rule in final form would not constitute backfitting or represent a violation of any of the issue finality provisions in 10 CFR part 52. Therefore, the NRC has not prepared any additional documentation for this correction rulemaking addressing backfitting or issue finality.
This final rule is not a rule as defined in the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801-808).
