EPA’s compliance with the statutes and Executive Orders for the underlying rule is discussed in Unit VII. of the March 22, 2006, final rule (71 FR 14406). II. What Does this Correction Do? FR Doc. 06–2712 published in the Federal Register of March 22, 2006 (71 FR 14406) (FRL–7766–8), in the amendment to § 180.472 is being corrected because the table in paragraph (a) was inadvertently published as a two column table. The table should have appeared as a three column table. The omitted third column should include the heading ‘‘Expiration/Revocation Date’’, and the entry ‘‘None’’ to correspond to the tolerance listed in each row. The amendment also includes a typographical error and lists the established tolerance level for ‘‘Oats, forage’’, as ‘‘a2.0’’ parts per million. This typographical error is being corrected as well. The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of this final rule in the Federal Register. This final rule is not a ‘‘major rule ’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). III. Why is this Correction Issued as a Final Rule? Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), provides that, when an Agency for good cause finds that notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest, the agency may issue a final rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has determined that there is good cause for making today’s technical correction final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment, because the use of notice and comment procedures are unnecessary to effectuate this correction. As such, EPA finds that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).

Notice of Final Determination on the State of Indiana’s Application for Final Approval. wwhite on PROD1PC61 with RULES ACTION: SUMMARY: The State of Indiana has applied for approval of the underground storage tank program under Subtitle I of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed the Indiana application and has reached a final determination that Indiana’s underground storage tank program satisfies all of the requirements necessary to qualify for approval under the regulations. Thus, the EPA is granting final approval to the State of Indiana to operate its Underground Storage Tank Program for petroleum and hazardous substances. DATES: Effective Date: Final approval for the State of Indiana’s Underground Storage Tanks Program is effective on August 11, 2006. ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID No. EPA–R05–UST–2006–0188. All documents in the docket are listed on the https://www.regulations.gov Web site.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Andrew Tschampa, Chief, Underground Storage Tank Section, U.S. EPA Region 5, DU–7J, 77 West Jackson Blvd., Chicago, Illinois, Telephone: (312) 886– 6136. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Section 9004 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) authorizes EPA to approve State underground storage tank programs to operate in the State in lieu of the Federal underground storage tank (UST) program. Program approval may be granted by EPA pursuant to RCRA section 9004(b), if the Agency finds that the State program: Is ‘‘no less stringent’’ than the Federal program for the seven elements set forth at RCRA section 9004(a)(1) through (7); includes the notification requirements of RCRA section 9004(a)(8); and provides for adequate enforcement of compliance with UST standards of RCRA section 9004(a). Note that RCRA sections 9005 (on information-gathering) and 9006 (on Federal enforcement) by their terms apply even in states with programs approved by EPA under RCRA section 9004. Thus, the Agency retains its authority under RCRA sections 9005 and 9006, 42 U.S.C. 6991d and 6991e, and other applicable statutory and regulatory provisions to undertake inspections and enforcement actions in approved states. With respect to such an enforcement action, the Agency will rely on Federal sanctions, Federal inspection authorities, and Federal procedures rather than the State authorized analogues to these provisions. II. Indiana The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) is the implementing agency for underground storage tank (UST) activities in the State. IDEM UST/LUST program was first implemented in 1986 and IDEM recently amended its technical rules, which came into effect October 2004. Indiana adopted UST program regulations for petroleum and hazardous substance underground storage tanks. Prior to the adoption of the regulations, Indiana solicited public comments on the draft UST program regulations. IDEM submitted their application for State Program Approval (SPA) of Indiana’s UST program to U.S. EPA by letter dated April 5, 2005. EPA reviewed PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 39213 IDEM’s application and determined it to be complete. EPA notified IDEM in a June 22, 2005, letter that the Indiana application was complete. On March 22, 2006, the EPA published a tentative decision announcing its intent to grant Indiana final approval. III. Decision I conclude that the State of Indiana’s application for final program approval meets all of the statutory and regulatory requirements established by Subtitle I of RCRA. Accordingly, Indiana is granted final approval to operate its Underground Storage Tank Program for petroleum and hazardous substances. The State of Indiana now has the responsibility for managing all regulated underground storage tank facilities within its border and carrying out all aspects of the Underground Storage Tank Program. Indiana also has primary enforcement responsibility, although the EPA retains the right to conduct enforcement under section 9006 of RCRA. IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews This rule only applies to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s underground storage tank program requirements pursuant to RCRA section 9004 and imposes no requirements other than those imposed by State law (see SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION). Therefore, this rule complies with applicable executive orders and statutory provisions as follows. 1. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning Review—The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this rule from its review under Executive Order (EO) 12866. 2. Paperwork Reduction Act—This rule does not impose an information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. 3. Regulatory Flexibility Act—After considering the economic impacts of today’s rule on small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, I certify that this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act— Because this rule codifies pre-existing requirements under State law and does not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by State law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. 5. Executive Order 13132: Federalism— EO 13132 does not apply to this rule because it will not have federalism implications (i.e., substantial direct E:\FR\FM\12JYR1.SGM 12JYR1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    The Agency included in the final rule a list of those who may be 
potentially affected by this action. If you have questions regarding 
the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the 
person listed under the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

B. How Can I Access Electronic Copies of this Document and Other 
RelatedInformation?

    In addition to using regulations.gov (https://www.regulations.gov), 
you may access this Federal Register document electronically through 
the EPA Internet under the`` Federal Register'' listings at https://
www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/. A frequently updated electronic version of 40 
CFR part 180 is available at E-CFR Beta Site Two at https://
www.gpoaccess.gov/ecfr/.

II. What Does this Correction Do?

    FR Doc. 06-2712 published in the Federal Register of March 22, 2006 
(71 FR 14406) (FRL-7766-8), in the amendment to Sec.  180.472 is being 
corrected because the table in paragraph (a) was inadvertently 
published as a two column table. The table should have appeared as a 
three column table. The omitted third column should include the heading 
``Expiration/Revocation Date'', and the entry ``None'' to correspond to 
the tolerance listed in each row. The amendment also includes a 
typographical error and lists the established tolerance level for 
``Oats, forage'', as ``a2.0'' parts per million. This typographical 
error is being corrected as well.

III. Why is this Correction Issued as a Final Rule?

    Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 
553(b)(B), provides that, when an Agency for good cause finds that 
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary 
to the public interest, the agency may issue a final rule without 
providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has 
determined that there is good cause for making today's technical 
correction final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment, 
because the use of notice and comment procedures are unnecessary to 
effectuate this correction. As such, EPA finds that this constitutes 
good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).

IV. Do Any of the Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Apply to this 
Action?

    No. This action only corrects errors in the amendatory language for 
a previously published final rule and does not impose any new 
requirements. EPA's compliance with the statutes and Executive Orders 
for the underlying rule is discussed in Unit VII. of the March 22, 
2006, final rule (71 FR 14406).

V. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally 
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating 
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, 
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the 
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other 
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of 
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior 
to publication of this final rule in the Federal Register. This final 
rule is not a ``major rule '' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
