Endangered Species Act. Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), 16 U.S.C. 1531–1544, requires federal agencies to consult with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) if their actions have the potential to either beneficially or adversely affect any threatened or endangered species. EPA has determined that the Beaufort and Chukchi general permits are not likely to adversely affect any threatened or endangered species. EPA has initiated consultation with NMFS and USFWS to meet its obligations under the ESA. Biological Evaluations (BE) and the fact sheet for the Beaufort and Chukchi general permits were submitted to NMFS and USFWS for review and concurrence during the public comment period. EPA will obtain a determination from NMFS and USFWS before reissuing the final permits. Essential Fish Habitat. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act requires EPA to consult with NMFS when a proposed discharge has the potential to adversely affect an Essential Fish Habitat (EFH). EPA is consulting with NMFS to ensure that the discharges authorized by the Beaufort and Chukchi general permits are not likely to adversely affect an EFH or associated species. Coastal Zone Management Act. As of July 1, 2011, there is no longer a Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) program in Alaska. Consequently, federal agencies are no longer required to provide the State of Alaska with CZMA consistency determinations. Annex V of MARPOL (73/78 and 33 CFR 155.73). Under Annex V of MARPOL, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has issued final regulations under 33 CFR 151.73 to control the disposal of garbage and domestic wastes from fixed or floating drilling facilities involved in the exploration of oil and gas resources. These regulations also apply to drilling facilities located in navigable waters of the U.S. or within the 200 mile Exclusive Economic Zone. The Beaufort and Chukchi general permits prohibit the discharge of garbage. Executive Order 12866. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) exempts this action from the review requirements of Executive Order 12866 pursuant to Section 6 of that order. Paperwork Reduction Act. EPA has reviewed the requirements imposed on VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:20 Jan 30, 2012 Jkt 226001 regulated facilities in the Beaufort and Chukchi general permits and find them consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Regulatory Flexibility Act. Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., a federal agency must prepare an initial regulatory flexibility analysis ‘‘for any proposed rule’’ for which the agency ‘‘is required by section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), or any other law, to publish general notice of proposed rulemaking.’’ The RFA exempts from this requirement any rule that the issuing agency certifies ‘‘will not, if promulgated, have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.’’ EPA has concluded that NPDES general permits are permits, not rulemakings, under the APA and thus not subject to APA rulemaking requirements or the FRA. Notwithstanding that general permits are not subject to the RFA, EPA has determined that the Beaufort and Chukchi general permits will not have significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. This determination is based on the fact that the regulated companies are not classified as small businesses under the Small Business Administration regulations established at 49 FR 5023 et seq. (February 9, 1984). These facilities are classified as Major Group 13—Oil as Gas Extraction SIC 1311 Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas. Authority: This action is taken under the authority of Section 402 of the Clean Water Act as amended, 42 U.S.C. 1342. I hereby provide public notice of the draft Beaufort and Chukchi general permit in accordance with 40 CFR 124.10. Dated: January 23, 2012. Michael A.
