9. Civil Justice Reform
List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 165
This rule meets applicable standards
in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive
Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to
minimize litigation, eliminate
ambiguity, and reduce burden.
Harbors, Marine safety, Navigation
(water, Reporting and recordkeeping
requirements, Security measures,
Waterways.
For the reasons discussed in the
preamble, the Coast Guard amends
33 CFR part 165 as follows:
10. Protection of Children
We have analyzed this rule under
Executive Order 13045, Protection of
Children from Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not
an economically significant rule and
does not create an environmental risk to
health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.
11. Indian Tribal Governments
This rule does not have tribal
implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial
direct effect on one or more Indian
tribes, on the relationship between the
Federal Government and Indian tribes,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes.
12. Energy Effects
This action is not a ‘‘significant
energy action’’ under Executive order
13211, Actions Concerning Regulations
That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use.
13. Technical Standards
This rule does not use technical
standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus
standards.

14. Environment
We have analyzed this rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023–01 and
Commandant Instruction M16475.lD,
which guide the Coast Guard in
complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA)(42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and
have concluded this action is one of a
category of actions which do not
individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human
environment. This rule is categorically
excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph
(34) (g.), of the Instruction. This rule
will be in effect until January 1, 2013,
but is not expected to result in any
significant adverse environmental
impact as described in NEPA.
An environmental analysis checklist
and a categorical exclusion
determination will be provided and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public
in general. Since this action may apply
to anyone, the Agency has not
attempted to describe all the specific
entities that may be affected by this
action. If you have any questions
regarding the applicability of this action
to a particular entity, consult the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

II. Why are these amendments issued as
a final rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
533(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 rule
without providing notice and an
opportunity for public comment. EPA
has determined that there is good cause
for making this rule final without prior
proposal and opportunity for comment.
These changes update the organizational
name of the EPA office responsible for
administration of FIFRA, FFDCA
section 408, and TSCA, and correct
various Agency addresses. Notice and
public comment on such changes is
unnecessary. EPA finds that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C.
533(b)(3)(B).
III. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
This final rule implements technical
corrections and does not otherwise
impose or change any requirements. As
such, this action does not require review
by OMB under Executive Order 12866,
entitled ‘‘Regulatory Planning and
Review’’ (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993),
the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.), or Executive Order 13045,
entitled ‘‘Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997).
Nor does it impose any enforceable
VerDate Mar<15>2010

duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or
impose any significant or unique impact
on small governments as described in
the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
(UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).
This action will not have substantial
direct effects on State or Tribal
governments, on the relationship
between the Federal Government and
States or Indian tribes, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
Government and States or Indian tribes.
As such, it will not have any
‘‘federalism implications’’ as described
by Executive Order 13132, entitled
‘‘Federalism’’ (64 FR 43255, August
10,1999) or ‘‘tribal implications’’ as
described by Executive Order 13175,
entitled ‘‘Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000). Nor does it
involve any technical standards that
would require Agency consideration of
voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note),
environmental justice-related issues that
would require consideration under
Executive Order 12898, entitled
‘‘Federal Actions to Address
Environmental Justice in Minority
Populations and Low-Income
Populations’’ (59 FR 7629, February 16,
1994), or otherwise involve anything
that would have any adverse effect on
the supply, distribution, or use of
energy that would require consideration
under Executive Order 13211, entitled
‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations that
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001).
In addition, since this action is not
subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the APA or any
other statute, it is not subject to the
regulatory flexibility provisions of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.).
IV. Congressional Review Act
Pursuant to the Congressional Review
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 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 the rule in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ‘‘major
rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

II. Background
A. Area Designation Requirements
On June 2, 2010, the EPA
Administrator signed a notice of final
rulemaking that revised the primary SO2
NAAQS (75 FR 35520, published on
June 22, 2010) after review of the
existing two primary SO2 standard
promulgated on April 30, 1971 (36 FR
8187).1 The EPA established the revised
primary SO2 NAAQS at 75 parts per
billion (ppb) which is attained when the
3-year average of the annual 99th
percentile of 1-hour daily maximum
concentrations does not exceed 75 ppb.
The EPA determined in that rulemaking
that this is the level necessary to
provide protection of public health with
an adequate margin of safety, especially
for children, the elderly and those with
asthma. These groups are particularly
susceptible to the health effects
associated with breathing SO2.
1 Although the notice was signed on June 2, 2010,
it was not publicly distributed until the next day,
June 3, 2010. The EPA generally regards
‘‘promulgation’’ for public notice purposes to mean
signature of a final rule combined with its public
dissemination. For purposes of CAA section
107(d)(1), therefore, which imposes deadlines tied
to the promulgation of the NAAQS for states to
submit designations recommendations and for the
EPA to promulgate designations, the EPA interprets
the promulgation date of the 2010 primary SO2
NAAQS to be June 3, 2010.

After the EPA establishes or revises a
NAAQS pursuant to CAA section 109,
the CAA directs the EPA and the states
to begin taking steps to ensure that those
NAAQS are met. The first step is to
identify areas of the country that do or
do not meet the new or revised NAAQS.
This step is known as the initial area
designations. Section 107(d)(1) of the
CAA provides that, ‘‘By such date as the
Administrator may reasonably require,
but not later than 1 year after
promulgation of a new or revised
NAAQS for any pollutant under section
109, the Governor of each state shall
* * * submit to the Administrator a list
of all areas (or portions thereof) in the
state’’ that designated those areas as
nonattainment, attainment, or
unclassifiable. The CAA defines an area
as nonattainment if it is violating the
NAAQS or if it is contributing to a
violation in a nearby area. See CAA
section 107(d)(1)(A)(i).
The CAA further provides, ‘‘Upon
promulgation or revision of a NAAQS,
the Administrator shall promulgate the
designations of all areas (or portions
thereof) * * * as expeditiously as
practicable, but in no case later than 2
years from the date of promulgation of
the new or revised NAAQS. Such period
may be extended for up to 1 year in the
event the Administrator has insufficient
information to promulgate the
designations.’’ See CAA section
107(d)(1)(B)(i).
After the states submit their
recommendations, but no later than 120
days prior to promulgating designations,
the EPA is required to notify a state of
any intended modifications to the state’s
recommended designation. The state
then has an opportunity to demonstrate
why any proposed modification is
inappropriate. Whether or not a state
provides a recommendation, the EPA
must promulgate the designation that
the agency deems appropriate within
two years of promulgation of the
NAAQS (or within 3 years if the EPA
extends the deadline).
For the June 2010 SO2 NAAQS, the
deadline for states to submit designation
recommendations to the EPA for their
areas was June 3, 2011. The EPA has
been evaluating these recommendations

Technical Corrections to Organizational Names, Addresses, and OMB
Control Numbers
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document contains minor amendments to regulations under
the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide (FIFRA), and Rodenticide Act, the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), and the Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA). These amendments will make EPA's regulations more
accurate and user friendly with regard to the name of the EPA office
that administers these statutes and various Agency addresses.
DATES: This rule is effective August 3, 2012.
ADDRESSES: The docket for this action, identified by docket
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-0629, is available at
https://www.regulations.gov or at the Office of Pollution Prevention and
Toxics Docket (OPPT Docket), Environmental Protection Agency Docket
Center (EPA/DC), EPA West Bldg., Rm. 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW.,
Washington, DC. The Public Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public in general. Since this action
may apply to anyone, the Agency has not attempted to describe all the
specific entities that may be affected by this action. If you have any
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular
entity, consult the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT.
II. Why are these amendments issued as a final rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
533(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 rule without providing
notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has determined that
there is good cause for making this rule final without prior proposal
and opportunity for comment. These changes update the organizational
name of the EPA office responsible for administration of FIFRA, FFDCA
section 408, and TSCA, and correct various Agency addresses. Notice and
public comment on such changes is unnecessary. EPA finds that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 533(b)(3)(B).
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
This final rule implements technical corrections and does not
otherwise impose or change any requirements. As such, this action does
not require review by OMB under Executive Order 12866, entitled
``Regulatory Planning and Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), or Executive Order
13045, entitled ``Protection of Children from Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). Nor does it
impose any enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or impose
any significant or unique impact on small governments as described in
the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).
This action will not have substantial direct effects on State or
Tribal governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government
and States or Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and States or Indian
tribes. As such, it will not have any ``federalism implications'' as
described by Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR
43255, August 10,1999) or ``tribal implications'' as described by
Executive Order 13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination with
Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). Nor does
it involve any technical standards that would require Agency
consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section
12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)
(15 U.S.C. 272 note), environmental justice-related issues that would
require consideration under Executive Order 12898, entitled ``Federal
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations'' (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994), or otherwise
involve anything that would have any adverse effect on the supply,
distribution, or use of energy that would require consideration under
Executive Order 13211, entitled ``Actions Concerning Regulations that
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001).
In addition, since this action is not subject to notice-and-comment
requirements under the APA or any other statute, it is not subject to
the regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.).
IV. Congressional Review Act
Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.),
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
the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule''
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
