Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans: Alaska; Fairbanks Carbon Monoxide Limited Maintenance Plan, 48638 [2013-19202]

Download as PDF 48638 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 154 / Friday, August 9, 2013 / Proposed Rules tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS OMB under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501– 3520). OMB and FDA previously received requests for a 90-day extension of the comment period for the information collection provisions of the proposed rule. We considered the requests and extended the comment period for the information collection for 90 days to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as that for the proposed rule—i.e., until May 16, 2013 (Federal Register of February 19, 2013, 78 FR 11611). FDA continued to receive comments requesting an extension of the comment period on the proposed rule. Each request conveyed concern that the 120day comment period did not allow sufficient time to develop a meaningful or thoughtful response to the proposed rule. FDA considered the requests and granted a 120-day extension of the comment period for the proposed rule and for the information collection provisions—i.e., until September 16, 2013 (Federal Register of April 26, 2013, 78 FR 24692). In the Federal Register of July 29, 2013 (78 FR 45729 and 78 FR 45781) we published two proposed rules entitled, ‘‘Foreign Supplier Verification Programs for Importers of Food for Humans and Animals’’ (Docket No. FDA–2011–N– 0143) and ‘‘Accreditation of Third-Party Auditors/Certification Bodies to Conduct Food Safety Audits and to Issue Certifications’’ (Docket No. FDA– 2011–N–0146) with a 120-day comment period. These two proposals are related to the proposed rule ‘‘Standards for the Growing, Harvesting, Packing, and Holding of Produce for Human Consumption.’’ Therefore, FDA is granting a 60-day final extension of the comment period for the ‘‘Standards for the Growing, Harvesting, Packing, and Holding of Produce for Human Consumption’’ proposed rule to allow interested persons an opportunity to consider the interrelationships between the proposals. We also are extending the comment period for the information collection provisions for 60 days to continue to make the comment period for the information collection provisions the same as the comment period for the provisions of the proposed rule. To clarify, FDA is requesting comment on all issues raised by the proposed rule. II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 Interested persons may either submit electronic comments regarding the information collection to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or fax written comments to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX: VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:50 Aug 08, 2013 Jkt 229001 202–395–7285. All comments should be identified with the title ‘‘Standards for the Growing, Harvesting, Packing, and Holding of Produce for Human Consumption.’’ III. Request for Comments Interested persons may submit either electronic comments regarding the proposed rule to https:// www.regulations.gov or written comments to the Division of Dockets Management (see ADDRESSES). It is only necessary to send one set of comments. Identify comments with the docket number found in brackets in the heading of this document.
