Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 173 / Wednesday, September 7, 2011 / Rules and Regulations
Minority Populations and Low-Income
Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16,
1994).
Since tolerances and exemptions that
are established on the basis of a petition
under section 408(d) of FFDCA, such as
the tolerance exemption in this final
rule, do not require the issuance of a
proposed rule, the requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply.
This final rule directly regulates
growers, food processors, food handlers,
and food retailers, not States or tribes.
As a result, this action does not alter the
relationships or distribution of power
and responsibilities established by
Congress in the preemption provisions
of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. As such,
EPA has determined that this action will
not have a substantial direct effect on
States or tribal governments, on the
relationship between the national
government and the States or tribal
governments, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government or between
the Federal Government and Indian
tribes. Thus, EPA has determined that
Executive Order 13132, entitled
Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999), and Executive Order 13175,
entitled Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000), do not apply
to this final rule. In addition, this final
rule does not impose any enforceable
duty or contain any unfunded mandate
as described under Title II of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
(UMRA) (Pub. L. 104–4).
This action does not involve any
technical standards that would require
EPA consideration of voluntary
consensus standards pursuant to section
12(d) of the National Technology
Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995
(NTTAA), Public Law 104–113, section
12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

that before a rule may take effect, the
agency promulgating the rule must

submit a report containing this rule and
other required information to the U.S.

AGENCY:
This document is being

levels, for the pesticide, flubendiamide
in or on the meat and meat byproducts
of cattle, goat, hog, horse, and sheep.
The tolerance levels were inadvertently

The Agency included in the final rule

questions regarding the applicability of
this action to a particular entity, consult

INFORMATION CONTACT.
II. What does this technical amendment
do?
In the Federal Register of March 23,
2011 (75 FR 16301) (FRL–8863–8), EPA
issued a final rule establishing new
tolerances and revising existing
tolerances for residues of flubendiamide
(40 CFR 180.639) on certain food and
livestock commodities. Inadvertently, a
few of the tolerance levels were
transcribed incorrectly, and
consequently, 40 CFR 180.639(a)(2)
provides an incorrect tolerance value for
the established tolerances for cattle,
meat (0.60 ppm); cattle, meat
byproducts (0.08 ppm); goat, meat (0.60
ppm); goat, meat byproducts (0.08 ppm);
hog, meat (0.15 ppm); hog, meat
byproducts (0.03 ppm); horse, meat
(0.60 ppm); horse, meat byproducts
(0.08 ppm); sheep, meat (0.60 ppm); and
sheep, meat byproducts (0.08 ppm). As
supported by recalculated beef and
dairy cattle, swine, and poultry dietary
burdens, and re-evaluation of previously
submitted animal feeding studies, these
tolerance values should be revised to
0.08 ppm; 0.60 ppm; 0.08 ppm; 0.60

incorrectly.
IV. Do any of the statutory and

action?
This technical amendment revises a
number of incorrect tolerance levels and
does not otherwise change the original
requirements of the final rule. As a
technical amendment, this action is not
subject to the statutory and Executive
Order review requirements. For

GSA is amending the Federal
Travel Regulation (FTR) by changing,
updating, and clarifying various
provisions of Chapters 300 and 301
regarding temporary duty (TDY) travel.
These changes include adjusting the
definition of incidental expenses;
clarifying necessary deduction amounts
from the meals and incidental expense
(M&IE) reimbursement on travel days;
extending agencies the authority to
issue blanket actual expense approval
for TDY travel during PresidentiallyDeclared Disasters; and updating other
miscellaneous provisions.

Therefore, 40 CFR part 180 is

III. Why is this amendment issued as a
final rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B), provides that, when an
Agency for good cause finds that notice
and public procedure are impracticable,
unnecessary or contrary to the public
interest, the Agency may issue a final
rule without providing notice and an
opportunity for public comment. EPA
has determined that there is good cause
for making this technical amendment
final without prior proposal and
opportunity for comment, because this
technical amendment revises a few
incorrectly transcribed tolerance levels
and does not otherwise change the
original requirements of the final rule.
EPA finds that this constitutes good
cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Does this action apply to me?
The Agency included in the final rule a list of those who may be
potentially affected by this action. If you have questions regarding
the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the
person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
II. What does this technical amendment do?
In the Federal Register of March 23, 2011 (75 FR 16301) (FRL-8863-
8), EPA issued a final rule establishing new tolerances and revising
existing tolerances for residues of flubendiamide (40 CFR 180.639) on
certain food and livestock commodities. Inadvertently, a few of the
tolerance levels were transcribed incorrectly, and consequently, 40 CFR
180.639(a)(2) provides an incorrect tolerance value for the established
tolerances for cattle, meat (0.60 ppm); cattle, meat byproducts (0.08
ppm); goat, meat (0.60 ppm); goat, meat byproducts (0.08 ppm); hog,
meat (0.15 ppm); hog, meat byproducts (0.03 ppm); horse, meat (0.60
ppm); horse, meat byproducts (0.08 ppm); sheep, meat (0.60 ppm); and
sheep, meat byproducts (0.08 ppm). As supported by recalculated beef
and dairy cattle, swine, and poultry dietary burdens, and re-evaluation
of previously submitted animal feeding studies, these tolerance values
should be revised to 0.08 ppm; 0.60 ppm; 0.08 ppm; 0.60
[[Page 55273]]
ppm; 0.03 ppm; 0.15 ppm; 0.08 ppm; 0.60 ppm; 0.08 ppm; and 0.60 ppm,
respectively. This document is being issued to correct the tolerance
values tolerances levels that were entered incorrectly.
III. Why is this amendment issued as a final rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B), provides that, when an Agency for good cause finds that
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary
to the public interest, the Agency may issue a final rule without
providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has
determined that there is good cause for making this technical amendment
final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment, because this
technical amendment revises a few incorrectly transcribed tolerance
levels and does not otherwise change the original requirements of the
final rule. EPA finds that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B).
IV. Do any of the statutory and Executive Order reviews apply to this
action?
This technical amendment revises a number of incorrect tolerance
levels and does not otherwise change the original requirements of the
final rule. As a technical amendment, this action is not subject to the
statutory and Executive Order review requirements. For information
about the statutory and Executive Order review requirements as they
related to the final rule, see Unit VI. in the Federal Register of
March 23, 2011 (76 FR 16301) (FRL-8863-8).
V. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the Agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 this final rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
