Special Access for Price Cap Local Exchange Carriers; AT&T Corporation Petition for Rulemaking To Reform Regulation of Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier Rates for Interstate Special Access Services, 24683-24684 [2013-09708]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 81 / Friday, April 26, 2013 / Rules and Regulations II. What does this technical amendment do? On November 9, 2012, EPA issued a final rule establishing time-limited tolerances for residues of dinotefuran in or on pome fruit, group 11 and stone fruit, group 12 in 40 CFR 180.603(b). A subsequent rule was published on November 28, 2012, establishing permanent tolerances for dinotefuran on rice and other commodities, under 40 CFR 180.603(a). Inadvertently, with the establishment of the permanent tolerances on November 28, 2012, the time-limited tolerances for pome fruit, group 11 and stone fruit, group 12, that had previously been established in the November 9, 2012 final rule were deleted. This final rule will restore § 180.603(b), as well as the pesticide time-limited tolerances for pome fruit, group 11 and stone fruit, group 12, to support uses authorized under section 18 emergency exemptions. 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, in order to move quickly on the emergency exemption to address an urgent nonroutine situation and ensure that the resulting food is safe and lawful, as provided for in FFDCA section 408(l)(6). EPA finds that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 180 Environmental protection, Agricultural commodities, Pesticides and pests.

The Report and Order was classified as a major rule subject to congressional review. 5 U.S.C. 804(2). Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(3)(A), a major rule cannot be made effective until 60 days after the latter of publication in the Federal Register or receipt by Congress of a report in compliance with the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1). Congress did not receive the CRA report until January 24, 2013, thirteen days after publication of the final rule document in the Federal Register. Consequently, the Report and Order (except for the information collection requirement and the delegation of authority) is effective 60 days after that date.

AGENCY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:45 Apr 25, 2013 Jkt 229001 ACTION: Final rule. FMCSA amends its commercial driver’s license (CDL) rules to eliminate the requirement for drivers to notify the State licensing agency that issued their commercial learner’s permit (CLP) or CDL of out-of-State traffic convictions when those convictions occur in States that have a certified CDL program in substantial compliance with FMCSA’s rules. Current regulations require both CDL holders and States with certified CDL programs to report a CDL holder’s out-of-State traffic conviction to the driver’s State of licensure. This final rule amends the CDL rules to eliminate this reporting redundancy for those cases in which the conviction occurs in a State that has a certified CDL program in substantial compliance with FMCSA’s regulations. This change will reduce a regulatory burden on individual CLP and CDL holders and State driver licensing agencies. This rule is responsive to Executive Order (E.O.) 13563 ‘‘Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review,’’ issued January 18, 2011. DATES: The final rule is effective May 28, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Table of Contents for Preamble Executive Summary Legal Basis for Rulemaking Background Discussion of Comments Section-by-Section Discussion of Regulatory Changes Regulatory Analyses Executive Summary Purpose of the Rule and Summary of Major Provisions This final rule amends the commercial driver’s license (CDL) rules to eliminate the requirement for drivers to notify the State driver licensing agency (SDLA) that issued their commercial learner’s permit (CLP) or CDL of out-of-State traffic convictions when those convictions occur in States that have a certified CDL program in substantial compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s rules. The elimination of this reporting redundancy will reduce a regulatory burden on individual CLP and CDL holders and SDLAs. This rule also responds to Executive Order (E.O.) 13563 ‘‘Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review,’’ issued January 18, 2011. Costs and Benefits The anticipated benefits of the rule will take the form of reduced paperwork burden hours and expenditures for the reporting of out-of-State traffic convictions. Neither the benefits nor the costs of eliminating this regulatory burden can be quantified at this time. States will continue to rely on State-toState reporting, which is more accurate and secure than driver self-reporting. Legal Basis for Rulemaking Congress enacted the Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1986 (CMVSA) [Pub. L. 99–570, Title XII, 100 Stat. 3207–170, 49 U.S.C. chapter 313] to improve highway safety by ensuring that drivers of large trucks and buses are qualified to operate those vehicles and to remove unsafe and unqualified drivers from the highways. To achieve these goals, the CMVSA established the CDL program and required States to ensure that drivers convicted of certain serious traffic violations are prohibited from operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). Although State participation in the CDL program is voluntary, CMVSA created incentives E:\FR\FM\26APR1.SGM 26APR1

Local Exchange Carrier Rates for Interstate Special Access Services

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correction of effective date.

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

SUMMARY: This document corrects the effective date of the Report and 
Order adopted in FCC 12-153 and published in the Federal Register on 
January 11, 2013. This correction is necessary to comply with the 
Congressional Review Act (CRA) requirement that a major rule is 
effective 60 days after publication in the Federal Register or 60 days 
after receipt by Congress of a report in compliance with the CRA, 
whichever is later. The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) 
issued an Erratum on March 11, 2013, delaying the effective date of the 
Report and Order (except the information collection rules and the 
delegation rule) to March 25, 2013. Further information is provided in 
the supplementary information that follows.

DATES: The effective date of the Report and Order published on January 
11, 2013, at 78 FR 2572, is corrected to March 25, 2013. See 5 U.S.C. 
801(a)(3)(A). The information collection and recordkeeping requirements 
contained in section III and appendix A of that document are not 
effective until they are approved by the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 18, 2012, the Commission 
released a Report and Order initiating a comprehensive special access 
data collection. The Report and Order specified the nature of the data 
to be collected by the Commission and the scope of respondents, as well 
as delegated authority to the Commission's Wireline Competition Bureau 
to review and modify the collection to implement the requirements of 
the Report and Order. This Report and Order was published in the 
Federal Register on

[[Page 24684]]

January 11, 2013, at 78 FR 2572. That document set March 12, 2013, as 
the effective date for the Report and Order, with two exceptions. The 
delegation of authority to the Wireline Competition Bureau to implement 
a data collection in accordance with the terms of the Report and Order 
became effective upon adoption as specified in paragraph 137 of the 
document published at 78 FR 2572, January 11, 2013. Also, the 
information and recordkeeping requirements adopted in the Report and 
Order will not become effective until publication of an announcement in 
the Federal Register that these requirements have been approved by the 
OMB.
    This document corrects the effective date of the Report and Order 
to comply with the requirements of the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801-808. The 
Report and Order was classified as a major rule subject to 
congressional review. 5 U.S.C. 804(2). Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 
801(a)(3)(A), a major rule cannot be made effective until 60 days after 
the latter of publication in the Federal Register or receipt by 
Congress of a report in compliance with the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1). 
Congress did not receive the CRA report until January 24, 2013, 
thirteen days after publication of the final rule document in the 
Federal Register. Consequently, the Report and Order (except for the 
information collection requirement and the delegation of authority) is 
effective 60 days after that date.
    As a result, the Commission issued an Erratum to the Report and 
Order delaying the effective date (except the information collection 
rules and the delegation rule) to March 25, 2013. This publication, 
which was inadvertently delayed, provides notice of the effective date.
