Download as PDF rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with RULES 32490 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 108 / Thursday, June 5, 2014 / Rules and Regulations (5) Identify and assess available alternatives to direct regulation, including economic incentives—such as user fees or marketable permits—to encourage the desired behavior, or provide information that enables the public to make choices. Executive Order 13563 also requires an agency ‘‘to use the best available techniques to quantify anticipated present and future benefits and costs as accurately as possible.’’ The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs of OMB has emphasized that these techniques may include ‘‘identifying changing future compliance costs that might result from technological innovation or anticipated behavioral changes.’’ We are issuing this final priority only on a reasoned determination that its benefits justify its costs. In choosing among alternative regulatory approaches, we selected those approaches that maximize net benefits. Based on the analysis that follows, the Department believes that this regulatory action is consistent with the principles in Executive Order 13563. We also have determined that this regulatory action does not unduly interfere with State, local, and tribal governments in the exercise of their governmental functions. In accordance with both Executive orders, the Department has assessed the potential costs and benefits, both quantitative and qualitative, of this regulatory action. The potential costs are those resulting from statutory requirements and those we have determined as necessary for administering the Department’s programs and activities. The benefits of the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers Program have been well established over the years, as projects similar to the one envisioned by the final priority have been completed successfully. The new RERC would generate, disseminate, and promote the use of new information that is intended to improve outcomes for individuals with disabilities in the areas of community living and participation, employment, and health and function.

[FR Doc. 2014–13095 Filed 6–4–14; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4000–01–P enforcement date of this change was based on the review of subsequent mailer feedback. All other requirements that were published in the Federal Register (78 FR 76548–76560) will be implemented as specified. Despite the decision to defer the above referenced enforcement date, the Postal Service continues to believe that mailers who currently distribute BRM cartons and labels for the return of parcel-shaped items would be better served by switching to Merchandise Return Service® In light of mailers’ continuing eligibility to use BRM for the payment of postage for parcel-shaped items, and the Postal Service’s goal of promoting enhanced package visibility, the Postal Service expects to propose rules mandating the use of an Intelligent Mail® package barcode on certain BRM cartons and labels.
