I. General Information
Affected Entities: Tribes that are
eligible to receive grants under Section
106 of the Clean Water Act.
II. Background
Over the past 10 years, funding
available for Section 106 grants to
Indian Tribes has increased from $3
million to $25 million per year. This
Guidance more clearly defines
expectations and requirements for
Tribal Section 106 grant recipients and
provides a framework for evaluating
program results. This document is an
effort to provide unified guidance that
helps Tribes develop and implement
water quality programs and defines
what EPA expects from Tribal programs.
It provides an overview of all
programmatic and technical
requirements, discusses common
considerations across programs and
links to technical resources available to
develop Tribal programs. This
document outlines new reporting
requirements and data management
expectations for all Tribal programs
receiving Section 106 funds. Data
collected as a result of the new reporting
requirements will help EPA measure
environmental results of the Section 106
Tribal Program and comply with the

Act (GPRA) and other Federal mandates.
EPA published a Notice of Availability
regarding a draft version of this
Guidance on April 27, 2006 (71 FR
24852). The Agency provided a sixtyday public comment period, in which
more than two-hundred comments were
received. These comments encompassed
four major areas: (1) Monitoring/data
reporting (including STORET-related
issues); (2) funding (including EPA’s
future plans with respect to linking
Section 106 funding to the various
Tribal program activity levels outlined
within the Guidance document); (3)
training/technical assistance; and (4)
miscellaneous comments (i.e., Guidance
implementation issues and aligning the
Guidance to the Agency’s Strategic
Plan). As a result of these comments,
various communication efforts were
undertaken in order to effectively and
efficiently provide resolution.
Responding to these comments, EPA
made minor changes to the actual
Guidance text. The Agency has
developed a comprehensive Response to
Comments (RTC) document outlining
details of submitted comments and their
associated responses. This document
also provides specific locations of the
actual Guidance text that have been
modified and outlines the exact
modifications that were made. This RTC
document and final Guidance can be
found at the Environmental Protection
Agency’s Web site at https://
www.epa.gov/owm/cwfinance/

of contact listed under the section
entitled FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

implications, as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999). This action is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, ‘‘Actions
Concerning Regulations that
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001), because it is not a significant
regulatory action under Executive Order
12866. This action does not involve
technical standards; thus, the
requirements of section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C.
272 note) do not apply. This action does
not impose an information collection
burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The Congressional
Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.,
generally provides that before certain
actions may take effect, the agency
promulgating the action must submit a
report, which includes a copy of the
action, to each House of the Congress
and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. Since this grant action
contains legally binding requirements, it
is subject to the Congressional Review
Act, and EPA will submit this final
Guidance in its report to Congress under
the Act.
III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), this action is
not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and
is therefore not subject to OMB review.
Because this grant action is not subject
to notice and comment requirements
under the Administrative Procedures
Act or any other statute, it is not subject
to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et.) or sections 202 and 205
of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1999 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104–4). In
addition, this action does not
significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. Although this action does
not generally create new binding legal
requirements, where it does, such
requirements do not substantially and
directly affect Tribes under Executive
Order 13175 (63 FR 67249, November 9,
2000). Informal consultation has been
conducted with Tribes, and a formal
comment period was also provided.
This action will not have federalism

Certain New Chemicals; Receipt and Status Information
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Section 5 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires
any person who intends to manufacture (defined by statute to include
import) a new chemical (i.e., a chemical not on the TSCA Inventory) to
notify EPA and comply with the statutory provisions pertaining to the
manufacture of new chemicals. Under sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3) of
TSCA, EPA is required to publish a notice of receipt of a
premanufacture notice (PMN) or an application for a test marketing
exemption (TME), and to publish periodic status reports on the
chemicals under review and the receipt of notices of commencement to
manufacture those chemicals. This status report, which
[[Page 61974]]
covers the period from September 18, 2006 to September 30, 2006,
consists of the PMNs pending or expired, and the notices of
commencement to manufacture a new chemical that the Agency has received
under TSCA section 5 during this time period.
