SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document, wherever
‘‘we’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used it means the EPA.
Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B),
provides that, when an agency for good
cause finds that notice and public
procedures are impracticable,
unnecessary or contrary to the public
interest, the agency may issue a rule
without providing notice and an
opportunity for public comment. We
have determined that there is good
cause for making today’s rule final
without prior proposal and opportunity
for comment because we are merely
correcting EPA Region VIII’s address.
Thus notice and public procedure are
unnecessary. We find that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B).
Specifically, EPA is correcting the
address for EPA Region VIII in the
General Provisions of 40 CFR parts 60,
61, 62, and 63. Certain provisions of 40
CFR parts 60, 61, 62, and 63 regulations
require the submittal of notifications,
reports, and other documents to the EPA
regional office. This technical
amendment updates and corrects the
address for submitting such information
to the EPA Region VIII office.

SUMMARY: EPA is correcting the address
for EPA Region VIII in General

Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), this action is
not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ and
is therefore not subject to review by the
Office of Management and Budget. This
rule 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. Because the agency has made a
‘‘good cause’’ finding that this action is
not subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the Administrative
Procedure Act or any other statute as
indicated in the Supplementary
Information section above, it is not
subject to the regulatory flexibility
provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections
202 and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L.
104–4, 109 Stat. 48 (1995)). In addition,
this action does not significantly or
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
uniquely affect small governments or
impose a significant intergovernmental
mandate, as described in sections 203
and 204 of UMRA. This rule also does
not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the
relationship between the Federal
government and Indian tribes, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
government and Indian tribes, as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will
it 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, as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255,
August 10, 1999). This rule also is not
subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not
economically significant. This technical
correction 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. The rule also
does not involve special consideration
of environmental justice related issues
as required by Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In
issuing this rule, EPA has taken the
necessary steps to eliminate drafting
errors and ambiguity, minimize
potential litigation, and provide a clear
legal standard for affected conduct, as
required by section 3 of Executive Order
12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996).
EPA has complied with Executive Order
12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15, 1998) by
examining the takings implications of
the rule in accordance with the
‘‘Attorney General’s Supplemental
Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk
and Avoidance of Unanticipated
Takings’’ issued under the Executive
Order. This rule does not impose an
information collection burden under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
The Congressional Review Act (CRA)
(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. Section 808 allows
the issuing agency to make a rule
effective sooner than otherwise
provided by the CRA if the agency
makes a good cause finding that notice
and public procedure is impracticable,

unnecessary or contrary to the public
interest. This determination must be
supported by a brief statement. 5 U.S.C.
808(2). As stated previously, EPA has
made such a good cause finding,
including the reasons therefore, and
established an effective date of June 5,
2008. 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 the rule in
the Federal Register. These corrections
to the General Provisions of 40 CFR part
63 is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by
5 U.S.C. 804(2).

SUMMARY: EPA is correcting the address for EPA Region VIII in General
Provisions of EPA regulations. Certain EPA air pollution control
regulations require submittal of notifications, reports, and other
documents to the EPA regional office. This technical amendment updates
and corrects the address for submitting such information to the EPA

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document, wherever ``we'' or
``our'' is used it means the EPA. Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), provides that, when an agency for
good cause finds that notice and public procedures are impracticable,
unnecessary or contrary to the public interest, the agency may issue a
rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. We
have determined that there is good cause for making today's rule final
without prior proposal and opportunity for comment because we are
merely correcting EPA Region VIII's address. Thus notice and public
procedure are unnecessary. We find that this constitutes good cause
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).
Specifically, EPA is correcting the address for EPA Region VIII in
the General Provisions of 40 CFR parts 60, 61, 62, and 63. Certain
provisions of 40 CFR parts 60, 61, 62, and 63 regulations require the
submittal of notifications, reports, and other documents to the EPA
regional office. This technical amendment updates and corrects the
address for submitting such information to the EPA Region VIII office.
Statutory and Executive Order Review
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and is therefore not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. This rule 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. Because the agency has made a ``good
cause'' finding that this action is not subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other
statute as indicated in the Supplementary Information section above, it
is not subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections 202
and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L.
104-4, 109 Stat. 48 (1995)). In addition, this action does not
significantly or uniquely affect small governments or impose a
significant intergovernmental mandate, as described in sections 203 and
204 of UMRA. This rule also does not have a substantial direct effect
on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal government and Indian tribes, as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor
will it 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, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August
10, 1999). This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62
FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not economically significant.
This technical correction 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.
The rule also does not involve special consideration of environmental
justice related issues as required by Executive Order 12898 (59 FR
7629, February 16, 1994). In issuing this rule, EPA has taken the
necessary steps to eliminate drafting errors and ambiguity, minimize
potential litigation, and provide a clear legal standard for affected
conduct, as required by section 3 of Executive Order 12988 (61 FR 4729,

in accordance with the ``Attorney General's Supplemental Guidelines for
the Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings'' issued
under the Executive Order. This rule does not impose an information
collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.

The Congressional Review Act (CRA) (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. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to

previously, EPA has made such a good cause finding, including the
reasons therefore, and established an effective date of June 5, 2008.
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
the rule in the Federal Register. These corrections to the General
Provisions of 40 CFR part 63 is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
