subcontractor, or other person has
submitted a false claim under the False
Claims Act or has committed a criminal
or civil violation of laws pertaining to
fraud, conflict of interest, bribery,
gratuity, or similar misconduct
involving those funds.
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 seq.) 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). Although this grant action does
not have significant Federalism
implications under Executive Order
13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999),
EPA consulted with states in the
development of these grant guidelines.
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.
Section 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. Section 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, when finalized, will contain
legally binding requirements, it is
subject to the Congressional Review Act,
and EPA will submit its final action in
its report to Congress under the Act.
