Medical Diagnostic Equipment Accessibility Standards Advisory Committee, 16448-16449 [2013-05936]

Download as PDF 16448 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 51 / Friday, March 15, 2013 / Proposed Rules srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS targeted investment that would not serve the needs of State VR agencies, their clients, or the public at large. The Department has also concluded that it would be contrary to the public interest to have a lapse in the provision of TA and CE currently provided by the TACE Centers. Allowing funding to lapse before a new TA and CE delivery system can be implemented would leave State VR agencies and their partners without necessary supports in the event that critical needs arise. For these reasons, the Secretary proposes to waive the requirements in 34 CFR 75.250, which prohibit project periods exceeding five years, and the requirements in 34 CFR 75.261(c)(2), which limits the extension of a project period if the extension involves the obligation of additional Federal funds, and to issue continuation awards to the ten current TACE grantees for a total amount not to exceed $9,000,000. Under this proposal, the eight current TACE grantees with project periods ending on September 30, 2013, would receive funding to operate for an additional 12 months. The two current TACE grantees with project periods ending on December 21, 2013, would receive funds for an additional nine months. Consequently, the expiration date for all 10 grants would be September 30, 2014. Waiving these regulations and issuing these continuation awards will ensure that TA and CE to State VR agencies and their partners will not be interrupted. It will also ensure that the Department has adequate opportunity to solicit feedback and develop a coordinated TA and CE strategy that will best meet the needs of State VR agencies and their partners. With this proposed extension of project period and waiver, each TACE Center will be required to continue to carry out activities during the year of the continuation award consistent with the scope, goals, and objectives of the grantee’s application as approved in the 2008 competition. Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification The Secretary certifies that this proposed extension of project period and waiver would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The only entities that would be affected are the ten current grantees receiving Federal funds to serve as the TACE Centers and any other potential applicants. The Secretary certifies that the proposed waivers and extensions would not have a significant economic impact on these entities because the proposed waivers and extensions impose minimal compliance costs to extend projects already in existence, and the activities VerDate Mar<14>2013 17:29 Mar 14, 2013 Jkt 229001 required to support the additional year of funding would not impose additional regulatory burdens or require unnecessary Federal supervision. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This notice of proposed extension of project period and waiver does not contain any information collection requirements.

ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to disapprove a narrow portion of a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of West Virginia on August 31, 2011. EPA is proposing this action because a narrow portion of the submittal does not satisfy the Federal requirement for the inclusion of condensable emissions of particulate matter (condensables) within the definition of ‘‘regulated new source review (NSR) pollutant.’’ Additionally, because West Virginia’s August 31, 2011 SIP revision does not adequately account for condensable emissions within the definition of ‘‘regulated NSR pollutant,’’ EPA is also proposing to disapprove specific Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) portions of related infrastructure submissions required by the Clean Air Act (CAA) to implement, maintain, and enforce the 1997 fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), the 2006 PM2.5 NAAQS, and the 2008 lead and ozone E:\FR\FM\15MRP1.SGM 15MRP1
