Download as PDF 46994 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 152 / Tuesday, August 7, 2012 / Proposed Rules • Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). In addition, this proposed rule, pertaining to the 1997 8-hour ozone attainment demonstration for the Philadelphia Area submitted by Delaware on June 13, 2007, does not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: The EPA proposes to codify in the regulations entitled ‘‘Approved State Hazardous Waste Management Programs’’, Oklahoma’s authorized hazardous waste program. The EPA will incorporate by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) those provisions of the State regulations that are authorized and that the EPA will enforce under the Solid Waste Disposal Act, commonly referred to as the Resource Conversation and Recovery Act (RCRA). DATES: Send written comments by September 6, 2012.

In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this Federal Register, the EPA is codifying and incorporating by reference the State’s hazardous waste program as a direct final rule. The EPA did not make a proposal prior to the direct final rule because we believe these actions are not controversial and do not expect comments that oppose them. We have explained the reasons for this codification and incorporation by reference in the preamble to the direct final rule. Unless we get written comments which oppose this incorporation by reference during the comment period, the direct final rule will become effective on the date it establishes, and we will not take further action on this proposal. If we get comments that oppose these actions, we will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. We will then respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this proposal. You may not have another opportunity for comment. If you want to comment on this action, you must do so at this time. For additional information, please see the direct final rule published in the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this Federal Register. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On February 16, 2011, FEMA published in the Federal Register a 
proposed rule that contained an erroneous table. This notice provides 
corrections to that table, to be used in lieu of the information 
published. The table provided here represents the flooding sources, 
location of referenced elevations, effective and modified elevations, 
and communities affected for Bolivar County, Mississippi, and 
Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the following flooding 
sources: Jones Bayou, Mississippi River, and Porter Bayou.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before November 5, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance) 
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating 
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), in accordance with 
section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 
4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
    These proposed BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain 
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements. 
They should not be construed to mean that

[[Page 46995]]

the community must change any existing ordinances that are more 
stringent in their floodplain management requirements. The community 
may at any time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to 
policies established by other Federal, State, or regional entities. 
These proposed elevations are used to meet the floodplain management 
requirements of the NFIP and also are used to calculate the appropriate 
flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after these 
elevations are made final, and for the contents in those buildings.

Correction

    In the proposed rule published at 76 FR 8965 in the February 16, 
2011, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the 
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``Bolivar County, 
Mississippi, and Incorporated Areas'' addressed the following flooding 
sources: Jones Bayou, Mississippi River, and Porter Bayou. That table 
contained inaccurate information as to the location of referenced 
elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities 
affected for Jones Bayou. In this notice, FEMA is publishing a table 
containing the accurate information, to address these prior errors. The 
information provided below should be used in lieu of that previously 
published.
