VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:15 Jul 28, 2011 Jkt 223001 In the Federal Register of June 21, 2011 (76 FR 36178), the Department published a notice of proposed rulemaking that would revise the interpretation of a statutory provision relating to the administration and enforcement of the employer and labor relations consultant ‘‘persuader’’ reporting requirements of section 203 of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA), 29 U.S.C. 433. The Department also proposed revisions to the Form LM–10 Employer Report and the Form LM–20 Agreements and Activities Report. Under section 203 of the LMRDA, reports are required on agreements or arrangements between employers and consultants regarding activities to persuade employees concerning their rights to organize and bargain collectively and to supply information to the employer concerning its employees or a labor organization involved in a labor dispute with such employer. Interested persons were invited to submit comments on or before August 22, 2011, 60 days after the publication of the notice. Public commenters have requested an extension of time to submit comments. In response to these requests, the Department has decided to extend the comment period for an additional 30 days. Comments on the proposed rule must be received on or before September 21, 2011. An extension of this duration is appropriate, because it will afford parties a meaningful opportunity to submit comments on the proposal without unduly delaying final action on the proposed regulation. The proposed rule, including the proposed Forms LM– 10 and LM–20 and their instructions, is accessible via the OLMS Web site at https://www.olms.dol.gov. Anyone who is unable to access this information on the Internet can obtain the information by contacting the Office of LaborManagement Standards at 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N– 5609, Washington, DC 20210, at olmspublic@dol.gov, or at (202) 693–0123 (this is not a toll-free number). Individuals with hearing impairments may call (800) 877–8339 (TTY/TDD). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Dated: July 25, 2011. Signed in Washington, DC, this 25th day of July 2011.

ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: EPA is proposing to determine that the Harrisburg-LebanonCarlisle (Harrisburg), Johnstown, Lancaster, York, and Reading fine particle (PM2.5) nonattainment areas (the Areas) in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania have attained the 1997 annual PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) by the applicable attainment date of April 5, 2010. These proposed determinations are based upon complete, quality assured, and certified ambient air monitoring data that show these Areas have monitored attainment of the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS for the 2007–2009 monitoring period. These determinations are being taken in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA). In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is making these determinations of attainment as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views these as noncontroversial actions and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the determinations is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to these actions, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rules will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in subsequent final rules based on these proposed rules. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties SUMMARY: E:\FR\FM\29JYP1.SGM 29JYP1
