Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 112 / Tuesday, June 11, 2013 / Rules and Regulations
Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides
that before a rule may take effect, the
agency promulgating the rule must
submit a rule report, which includes a
copy of the rule, to each House of the
Congress and to the Comptroller General
of the United States. 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 rule is not a
‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
C. Petitions for Judicial Review
Under Section 307(b)(1) of the Act,
petitions for judicial review of this
action must be filed in the United States
Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit by August 12, 2013. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the
Administrator of this final rule does not
affect the finality of this rule for the
purposes of judicial review nor does it
extend the time within which a petition
for judicial review may be filed, and
shall not postpone the effectiveness of
such rule or action. This action
approving Indiana’s section 111(d)/129
plan revision for SSI sources may not be
challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section
307(b)(2).)

SUMMARY: The Institute of Museum and
Library amends its grants regulations by
removing outdated regulations and
making certain technical amendments to
reflect Congress’ reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library
Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, as further
amended by the Presidential

I. Technical Amendments and Removal
of the Institute’s Outdated Regulations
IMLS amends 45 CFR part 1180 to
remove outdated regulations and make
minor technical amendments to reflect
Congress’ reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library
Services with the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111–
340 (December 22, 2010), as further
amended by the Presidential
Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law
112–166 (August 10, 2012). These
revisions are meant to fulfill the
Institute’s responsibility to its eligible
grant applicants by ensuring that all
regulations, policies, and procedures are
up-to-date. The regulations being
removed include regulations relating to
programs and requirements no longer in
existence at the Institute as a result of
both agency practice and the Museum
and Library Services Act of 2010, Public
Law 111–340 (December 22, 2010), as
further amended by the Presidential
Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law
112–166 (August 10, 2012). In the
interests of economy of administration,
and because all of the regulations to be
removed are outdated and the technical
amendments are minor, they are
included in one rulemaking vehicle.
Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(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. There
is good cause for making this action
final without prior proposal and
opportunity for comment because the
rule contains minor technical
amendments that provide agency
applicants and grantees with greater
clarity and additional flexibility.
II. Matters of Regulatory Procedure
Regulatory Planning and Review (E.O.
12866)
Under Executive Order 12866, the
Institute must determine whether the
regulatory action is ‘‘significant’’ and
therefore subject to OMB review and the
requirements of the Executive Order.
The Order defines a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ as one that is likely
to result in a rule that may: (1) Have an
annual effect on the economy of $100
million or more or adversely affect in a
material way the economy, a sector of
the economy, productivity, competition,
jobs, the environment, public health or
safety, or State, local, or tribal

and tribal governments, or by the
private sector, of $100 million or more
as adjusted for inflation) in any one
year.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Because this rule removes outdated
regulations and make certain technical
amendments, the Institute has
determined in Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) review that this
rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities because it
simply makes technical amendments
and removes outdated regulations.

governments or communities; (2) create
a serious inconsistency or otherwise
interfere with an action taken or
planned by another agency; (3)
materially alter the budgetary impact of
entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan
programs or the rights and obligations of
recipients thereof; or (4) raise novel
legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President’s priorities, or
the principles set forth in the Executive
Order.
The rule removes a number of
outdated regulations and makes
technical amendments to reflect
Congress’ reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library
Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111–
340 (December 22, 2010), as further
amended by the Presidential
Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law
112–166 (August 10, 2012). As such, it
does not impose a compliance burden
on the economy generally or on any
person or entity. Accordingly, this rule
is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
from an economic standpoint, and it
does not otherwise create any
inconsistencies or budgetary impacts to
any other agency or Federal Program.
In accordance with Executive Order
13132, this rule does not have
federalism implications that warrant the
preparation of a federalism assessment.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule is exempt from the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act, since it removes existing
outdated regulations and makes only
technical amendments to reflect
Congress’ reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library
Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111–
340 (December 22, 2010), as further
amended by the Presidential
Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law
112–166 (August 10, 2012). An OMB
form 83–1 is not required.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
For purposes of the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C.
chapter 25, subchapter II), this rule will
not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments and will not result in
increased expenditures by State, local,

This rule:
a. Does not have an annual effect on
the economy of $100 million or more.
b. Will not cause a major increase in
costs or prices for consumers,

geographic regions.
c. Does not have significant adverse
effects on competition, employment,
investment, productivity, innovation, or
the ability of U.S.-based enterprises to
compete with foreign-based enterprises.
Takings (E.O. 12630)
In accordance with Executive Order
12630, the rule does not have significant
takings implications. No rights, property
or compensation has been, or will be,
taken. A takings implication assessment
is not required.
Federalism (E.O. 13132)
Civil Justice Reform (E.O. 12988)
In accordance with Executive Order
12988, the Institute has determined that
this rule does not unduly burden the
judicial system and meets the
requirements of sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of the Order.
Consultation with Indian tribes (E.O.
13175)
In accordance with Executive Order
13175, the Institute has evaluated this
rule and determined that it has no
potential negative effects on federally
recognized Indian tribes.
National Environmental Policy Act
This rule does not constitute a major
Federal action significantly affecting the
quality of the human environment.

SUMMARY: This document modifies the
definition of ‘‘auditory assistance
device’’ in the Commission’s rules to
permit these devices to be used by
anyone at any location for simultaneous
language interpretation (simultaneous
translation), where the spoken words
are translated continuously in near real
time. The revised definition permits
unlicensed auditory assistance devices
to be used to provide either auditory
assistance or simultaneous translation,
or both, without impeding these
devices’ capability to provide auditory
assistance to persons with disabilities.
This document also lowers the limit for
these auditory assistance devices’
unwanted emissions to the limits
provided for other unlicensed devices in
the Commission’s rules.

Summary of the Report and Order
1. The Report and Order modified the
definition of ‘‘auditory assistance
device’’ in part 15 of the Commission’s
rules to expand the permissible uses of
these devices beyond solely providing
auditory assistance to persons with
disabilities (e.g., amplification of sounds
for the hard of hearing and audio
description for the blind) to include
simultaneous translation for anyone at
any location. This action harmonized
the part 15 definition of ‘‘auditory
assistance device’’ with the definition of
‘‘auditory assistance communications’’
in part 95 of the Commission’s rules.
Under this expanded definition, part 15
auditory assistance devices that operate
in the 72–73 MHz, 74.6–74.8 MHz, and
75.2–76 MHz (72–76 MHz) bands on an
unlicensed basis may provide auditory
assistance or simultaneous translation,
or both, to anyone at any location.
2. The Report and Order also lowered
the limit for part 15 auditory assistance
devices’ unwanted emissions to the
limits that are provided in § 15.209 of
the Commission’s rules to help reduce
the likelihood that the unwanted
emissions from increased use of these
devices for simultaneous translation
will degrade the reception of very high
frequency television (VHF TV) channels
2–4 (54–72 MHz) and 5–6 (76–88 MHz)
and help improve the reception of VHF
TV service.
3. On September 9, 2011, the
Commission adopted an Order and
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(Auditory Assistance Device NPRM) in
this proceeding in which it proposed to
modify the part 15 definition of
‘‘auditory assistance device’’ to expand
the permissible uses of these devices to
include simultaneous language
interpretation by any person at any
location, in the same manner as
permitted under part 95 for Low Power
Radio Service stations that operate in
the 216–217 MHz band. The
Commission took this action in response
to a petition for declaratory ruling filed
by Williams Sound Corporation
(Williams Sound), a provider of wireless
auditory assistance devices.
4. In the Auditory Assistance Device
NPRM, the Commission sought
comment on the advantages and
disadvantages and potential benefits of
expanding the permissible uses of part
15 auditory assistance devices and any
PO 00000
Frm 00056
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
qualitative or quantitative costs
associated with this proposal. It also
sought comment on whether increased
use of part 15 auditory assistance
devices for simultaneous language
interpretation would increase the
potential for harmful interference to
authorized services in the 72–76 MHz
and adjacent bands and whether
additional safeguards or changes to the
technical requirements for these devices
would be necessary to prevent harmful
interference to those services. In
addition, the Commission sought
comment on whether a more restrictive
limit for part 15 auditory assistance
devices’ out-of-band emissions is
needed to prevent harmful interference
to authorized services in the 72–76 MHz
and adjacent bands and improve the
reception of VHF TV channels 2–6.
5. Part 15 auditory assistance devices
may operate in a full duplex mode of
operation using necessary bandwidths
up to 200 kilohertz wide. All
fundamental emissions must be
contained wholly within the 72–73
MHz, 74.6–74.8 MHz, and 75.2–76 MHz
bands with a maximum field strength of
80 millivolts per meter (mV/m)
measured at a distance of 3 meters,
which is equivalent to a maximum
effective radiated power (ERP) of 1.2
milliwatts (mW). The field strength of
any unwanted emissions (emissions
outside of the 200 kilohertz necessary
bandwidth) must not exceed 1,500
microvolts per meter (mV/m) measured
at a distance of 3 meters, which is
equivalent to an ERP of 0.4 microwatts
(mW). In the Auditory Assistance Device
NPRM, the Commission asked what outof-band emissions limit would be
appropriate—the § 15.209 limit, the
unlicensed TV bands device limit, or
some other limit—what would be an
appropriate transition period for
compliance, and whether currently
approved part 15 auditory assistance
devices should be grandfathered for a
limited time or permanently. In the
Report and Order, the Commission
noted that although it used the term
‘‘out-of-band’’ emissions in the Auditory
Assistance Devices NPRM when
referring to emissions outside of the
frequency bands in which the auditory
assistance devices operate (paras. 20
and 21), the correct term to describe the
emissions outside of the necessary
bandwidth of the transmitting system is
‘‘unwanted’’ emissions, and so it used
the term ‘‘unwanted’’ emissions where
appropriate throughout the Report and
Order.

technical amendments to reflect Congress' reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, as further amended by the Presidential

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Technical Amendments and Removal of the Institute's Outdated
Regulations
IMLS amends 45 CFR part 1180 to remove outdated regulations and
make minor technical amendments to reflect Congress' reauthorization of
the Institute of Museum and Library Services with the Museum and
Library Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111-340 (December 22, 2010),
as further amended by the Presidential Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law 112-166 (August 10, 2012). These
revisions are meant to fulfill the Institute's responsibility to its
eligible grant applicants by ensuring that all regulations, policies,
and procedures are up-to-date. The regulations being removed include
regulations relating to programs and requirements no longer in
existence at the Institute as a result of both agency practice and the
Museum and Library Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111-340 (December
22, 2010), as further amended by the Presidential Appointment
Efficiency and Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law 112-166 (August 10,
2012). In the interests of economy of administration, and because all
of the regulations to be removed are outdated and the technical
amendments are minor, they are included in one rulemaking vehicle.
Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(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. There is good cause for
making this action final without prior proposal and opportunity for
comment because the rule contains minor technical amendments that
provide agency applicants and grantees with greater clarity and
additional flexibility.
II. Matters of Regulatory Procedure
Regulatory Planning and Review (E.O. 12866)
Under Executive Order 12866, the Institute must determine whether
the regulatory action is ``significant'' and therefore subject to OMB
review and the requirements of the Executive Order. The Order defines a
``significant regulatory action'' as one that is likely to result in a
rule that may: (1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million
or more or adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of
the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal
[[Page 34921]]
governments or communities; (2) create a serious inconsistency or
otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency;
(3) materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user
fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients
thereof; or (4) raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in
the Executive Order.
The rule removes a number of outdated regulations and makes
technical amendments to reflect Congress' reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111-340 (December 22, 2010), as
further amended by the Presidential Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law 112-166 (August 10, 2012). As
such, it does not impose a compliance burden on the economy generally
or on any person or entity. Accordingly, this rule is not a
``significant regulatory action'' from an economic standpoint, and it
does not otherwise create any inconsistencies or budgetary impacts to
any other agency or Federal Program.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Because this rule removes outdated regulations and make certain
technical amendments, the Institute has determined in Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) review that this rule will not
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities because it simply makes technical amendments and removes
outdated regulations.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule is exempt from the requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act, since it removes existing outdated regulations and makes
only technical amendments to reflect Congress' reauthorization of the
Institute of Museum and Library Services under the Museum and Library
Services Act of 2010, Public Law 111-340 (December 22, 2010), as
further amended by the Presidential Appointment Efficiency and
Streamlining Act of 2011, Public Law 112-166 (August 10, 2012). An OMB
form 83-1 is not required.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
For purposes of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C.
chapter 25, subchapter II), this rule will not significantly or
uniquely affect small governments and will not result in increased
expenditures by State, local, and tribal governments, or by the private
sector, of $100 million or more as adjusted for inflation) in any one
year.
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA)
This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804(2), the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act. This rule:
a. Does not have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or
more.
