ACTION: Final rule; technical amendments. SUMMARY: This document contains a technical correction to the final rule regarding the test procedures for general service fluorescent lamps, incandescent reflector lamps, and general service incandescent lamps, which was published in the Federal Register on July 6, 2009. In that final rule, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) adopted amendments to its test procedure regulations for the above-specified lamps. However, due to a drafting error, part of the original wording was inadvertently removed from the DOE test procedure regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This final rule addresses this issue and restores the correct and complete language to the regulations. E:\FR\FM\28APR1.SGM 28APR1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Minimum Quality and Handling Standards 
for Domestic and Imported Peanuts Marketed in the United States 
(Standards), as amended (7 CFR Part 996), were established pursuant to 
Public Law 107-171, the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 
(Farm Bill). The Standards regulate the quality and handling of 
domestic and imported peanuts marketed in the United States.
    AMS published in the Federal Register on August 14, 2003 (68 FR 
48574), its plan to review certain regulations, including the 
Standards, under criteria contained in section 610 of the RFA (5 U.S.C. 
601-612). Because many AMS regulations impact small entities, AMS has 
decided, as a matter of policy, to review certain regulations which, 
although they may not meet the threshold requirement under section 610 
of the RFA, warrant review.
    The purpose of the review will be to determine whether the 
Standards should be continued without change, amended, or rescinded, 
consistent with the stated objectives of applicable statutes, to 
minimize the impacts on small entities. In conducting this review, AMS 
will consider the following factors: (1) The continued need for the 
Standards; (2) the nature of complaints or comments received from the 
public concerning the Standards; (3) the complexity of the Standards; 
(4) the extent to which the Standards overlap, duplicate, or conflict 
with other Federal rules, and, to the extent feasible, with State and 
local governmental rules; and (5) the length of time since the 
Standards have been evaluated, or the degree to which technology, 
economic conditions, or other factors have changed in the areas 
affected by the Standards.
    Written comments, views, opinions, and other information regarding 
the impact the Standards have on small businesses are invited.
