general anesthesia and varying costshares for dental procedures (fillings,
crowns, root canals) completed in the
operating room setting. There is an
annual maximum benefit for the TDP
and TRDP of $1,200 per enrollee. This
means that the total payments for
covered services for each enrolled
member will not exceed $1,200 in any
contract year. In addition, the TRDP has
a deductible of $50 per patient per year,
not to exceed $150 per family per year.
Frequently, the annual maximum is
reached for those pediatric patients who
require extensive dental treatment
under general anesthesia. Once the
annual maximum is reached, the
remainder of the billed charges is the
enrollee’s responsibility. The hospital
costs (institutional services) are covered
by neither the TDP nor TRDP. For
families with dental insurance other
than TDP or TRDP, their plan structure
will defray some costs but out-of-pocket
costs will remain significant. Currently,
families without any dental insurance
will incur the total costs of dental,
anesthesia, and institutional services.

II. Regulatory Procedures
Executive Order 12866 requires that a
comprehensive regulatory impact
analysis be performed on any
economically significant regulatory
action, defined as one that would result
in an annual effect of $100 million or
more on the national economy or which
would have other substantial impacts.
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
requires that each Federal agency
prepare, and make available for public
comment, a regulatory flexibility
analysis when the agency issues a
regulation which would have a
significant impact on a substantial
number of small entities. This rule is
not an economically significant
regulatory action and will not have a
significant impact on a substantial
number of small entities for purposes of
the RFA, thus this proposed rule is not
subject to any of these requirements.
This rule will not impose additional
information collection requirements on
the public under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3511).
We have examined the impact(s) of
the proposed rule under Executive
Order 13132 and it does not have
policies that have federalism
implications that would have
substantial direct effects on the States,
on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government, therefore,

Accordingly, 32 CFR part 199 is
proposed to be amended as follows:
PART 199—CIVILIAN HEALTH AND
MEDICAL PROGRAM OF THE
UNIFORMED SERVICES (CHAMPUS)
1. The authority citation for part 199
continues to read as follows:
Authority: 5 U.S.C. 301; 10 U.S.C. chapter
55.
2. Section 199.4 is amended by
removing the first sentence of paragraph
(e)(10) introductory text and adding two
sentences in its place; revising the first
sentence of paragraph (e)(10)(iii); and
adding paragraph (e)(10)(vi) to read as
follows:
§ 199.4
Basic program benefits.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) * * *
(10) Dental. TRICARE/CHAMPUS
does not include a dental benefit.
However, in connection with dental
treatment for patients with
developmental, mental, or physical
disabilities or for pediatric patients age
5 or under, only institutional and
anesthesia services may be provided as
a benefit. * * *
*
*
*
*
*
(iii) Preauthorization required. In
order to be covered, adjunctive dental
care requires preauthorization from the
Director, TRICARE Management
Activity, or a designee, in accordance
with paragraph (a)(12) of this section.
* * *
*
*
*
*
*
(vi) Anesthesia and institutional costs
for dental care for children and certain
other patients. Institutional benefits
specified in paragraph (b) of this section
may be extended for hospital and in-out
surgery settings related to noncovered,
nonadjunctive dental care when such
outpatient care or inpatient stay is in
conjunction with dental treatment for
patients with developmental, mental, or
physical disabilities or for pediatric
patients age 5 or under. For these
patients, anesthesia services will be
limited to the administration of general
anesthesia only. Patients with
developmental, mental, or physical
disabilities are those patients with
conditions that prohibit dental
treatment in a safe and effective manner.
Therefore, it is medically or
psychologically necessary for these
patients to require general anesthesia for

dental treatment. Patients with physical
disabilities include those patients
having disabilities as defined in § 199.2
as serious physical disability.
Preauthorization by the Director,
TRICARE Management Activity, or a
designee, is required for such outpatient
care or inpatient stays to be covered in
the same manner as required for
adjunctive dental care described in
paragraph (e)(10)(iii) of this section.
Regardless of whether or not the
preauthorization request for outpatient
care or hospital admission is approved
and thus qualifies for institutional
benefits, the professional service related
to the nonadjunctive dental care is not
covered with the exception of coverage
for anesthesia services.

Approval and Promulgation of Air
Quality Implementation Plans; Illinois
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of
revisions to volatile organic compound
(VOC) rules for Formel Industries, Inc.
(Formel) as a revision to the Illinois
State Implementation Plan. On
December 12, 2001, EPA approved an
adjusted standard for Formel. Formel, a
flexographic printer in Cook County,
Illinois, was given an adjusted standard
because Illinois determined it was not
technically feasible or economically
reasonable for Formel to meet the VOC
control requirements for flexographic
printers. Illinois withdrew the adjusted
standard because Formel has installed a
catalytic oxidizer that allows it to meet
the VOC control requirements. This
control device will reduce VOC
emissions from Formel, which is a
precursor to ozone formation.

or before April 23, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the
Final Rules section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State’s
SIP submittal as a direct final rule
without prior proposal because the
Agency views this as a noncontroversial
submittal and anticipates no adverse
comments. A detailed rationale for the
approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. If no adverse comments are
received in response to this rule, no
further activity is contemplated. If EPA
receives adverse comments, the direct
final rule will be withdrawn and all
public comments received will be
addressed in a subsequent final rule
based on this proposed rule. EPA will
not institute a second comment period.
Any parties interested in commenting
on this action should do so at this time.
Please note that if EPA receives adverse
comment on an amendment, paragraph,
or section of this rule and if that
provision may be severed from the
remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt
as final those provisions of the rule that
are not the subject of an adverse
comment. For additional information,

in the Rules section of this Federal
Register.

Proposed Finding of Failure To Attain;
State of Arizona, Phoenix
Nonattainment Area; State of
California, Owens Valley
Nonattainment Area; Particulate Matter
of 10 Microns or Less
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to find that
the Phoenix Planning Area (Phoenix
nonattainment area) and the Owens
Valley Planning Area (Owens Valley
nonattainment area) did not attain the
24-hour National Ambient Air Quality
Standard (NAAQS) for particulate
matter of 10 microns or less (PM–10) by
the deadline mandated in the Clean Air
Act (CAA or the Act), December 31,
2006. These proposed findings are based
on monitored air quality data for the
PM–10 NAAQS from 2004 through
September 2006.
Several Indian tribes have
reservations located within the
boundaries of the Phoenix and Owens
Valley nonattainment areas. EPA
implements CAA provisions for
determining whether such areas have
attained the NAAQS by the applicable
attainment deadline in these
reservations. EPA is also proposing that
these areas have failed to attain the PM–
10 NAAQS. Thus, this proposed rule
could potentially affect these tribes.
Accordingly, EPA has notified the
affected tribal leaders of this proposed
rule and is inviting consultation with
interested tribes.
If EPA finalizes, after public notice
and comment, these failure to attain
findings, Arizona and California must
submit by December 31, 2007, plan
provisions that provide for attainment of
the PM–10 NAAQS and that achieve 5
percent annual reductions in PM–10 or
PM–10 precursor emissions as required
by CAA section 189(d).

received on or before April 23, 2007.
