11. Indian Tribal Governments
This rule does not have tribal
implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial
direct effect on one or more Indian
tribes, on the relationship between the
Federal Government and Indian tribes,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes.
12. Energy Effects
13. Technical Standards
This rule does not use technical
standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus
standards.

14. Environment
We have analyzed this rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023–01 and
Commandant Instruction M16475.lD,
which guide the Coast Guard in
complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA)(42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and
have determined that this action is one
of a category of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves
implementation of regulations within 33
CFR part 165, applicable to safety zones
on the navigable waterways. This zone
will temporarily restrict vessel traffic
from anchoring or transiting a portion of
Indian River Bay near Millsboro,
Delaware in order to protect the safety
of life and property on the waters while
a firework display is conducted. This
rule is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) of
Figure 2–1 of the Commandant
Instruction. An environmental analysis
checklist supporting this determination
and a Categorical Exclusion
Determination are available in the
docket where indicated under
ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the
discovery of a significant environmental
impact from this rule.

Final rule; technical correction.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
On June 15, 2010, the
Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
published a document in the Federal
Register (75 FR 33704), amending its
loan guaranty regulations to eliminate
redundancies in the regulations that
SUMMARY:
E:\FR\FM\16JNR1.SGM
16JNR1
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 115 / Tuesday, June 16, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
were a result of a new electronic
reporting system. At that time, we failed
to update the cross-reference citations
within the redesignated sections. On
October 22, 2010 (75 FR 65238),
Sections 36.4301 through 36.4323(e)
were amended to replace the incorrect
cross-reference citations with the
accurate, updated cross-references. This
document corrects the remaining
redesignated sections (§ 36.4324 through
§ 36.4393) to contain the correct and
updated cross-reference citations. These
nonsubstantive changes are made for
clarity and accuracy.
DATES: Effective June 16, 2015.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Joseph E. Simpson, Senior Attorney,
The Office of General Counsel, U.S.
Department of Veterans Affairs, 810
Vermont Avenue NW., (021D),
Washington, DC 20420, (202) 368–6406.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June
15, 2010 (75 FR 33704), VA amended 38
CFR part 36. The purpose of the
amendments was to eliminate
redundant regulations found at 38 CFR
36.4300 through 36.4393 (the ‘‘36.4300
series’’). VA redesignated the
regulations that had previously been
published at 38 CFR 36.4800 through
§ 36.4893 (the ‘‘36.4800 series’’) to
replace the 36.4300 series in its entirety.
On October 22, 2010 (75 FR 65238), VA
amended the redesignated sections of
36.4301 through 36.4323(3) to replace
the incorrect internal cross references to
the 36.4800 series contained within
those sections, with the updated,
accurate internal cross references to the
36.4300 series. That final rule technical
citation failed to make the remaining
necessary corrections.
With this action, VA is amending the
remaining 36.4300 series regulations to
update the internal cross-references to
the 36.4800 series regulations. This
action is necessary because the 36.4800
series has been removed from 38 CFR
part 36, making the current cross
reference citations to the series obsolete.
VA is amending each citation by simply
replacing the numbers ‘‘48’’ with ‘‘43’’
(e.g., changing the reference to § 36.4860
to read § 36.4360).
For the convenience of the reader, we
have included a redesignation table that
shows each affected section, the cross
reference that is removed, and the new
cross reference that is added in its place.
Administrative Procedure Act
Because this final rule is only a
technical correction to the crossreferences in certain regulations, prior
notice-and-comment is unnecessary.
Accordingly, this final rule is exempt
from this requirement under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B). For the same reason, there is
good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) to
publish this rule with an immediate
effective date.

SUMMARY:
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Synopsis
I. Second Report and Order
The Report and Order in this docket,
69 FR 70316, established the
Commission’s part 4 outage reporting
rules, which require certain providers of
communications to electronically file
reports of network outages that exceed
specified thresholds of magnitude and
duration. In the Further Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) that
accompanied that Report and Order, 69
FR 68859, the Commission sought
comment on a proposal to extend
outage-reporting requirements for
special offices and facilities to cover
general aviation airports, a category that
includes airports smaller than those

already covered by section 4.5(b) of the
rules. No comments were received on
this proposal, and there remains a lack
of record support for its adoption.
Moreover, adoption of the proposal
would run counter to the reasoning
underlying some of the proposals in the
(NPRM) that accompanies this
document. In particular, we sought
comment on excluding from the
definition of ‘‘special offices and
facilities’’ all airports other than the
nation’s most heavily trafficked airports,
because reports of airport-related
outages at such airports have not been
significant enough to pose a substantial
threat to public safety. Alternatively, we
consider, among other potential changes
to section 4.5(b), the elimination of
airport-specific reporting requirements
as duplicative of our proposed TSPbased reporting requirements.
Accordingly, we decline to adopt the
proposal to extend section 4.5(b) to
cover general aviation airports.
II. Order on Reconsideration
The Commission received nine
Petitions for Reconsideration of various
aspects of the Report and Order, seven
of which remain pending. The seven
Petitioners are Cingular Wireless LLC
(Cingular), CTIA-The Wireless
Association (CTIA), Organization for the
Promotion and Advancement of Small
Telecommunications Companies
(OPASTCO); Qwest Corporation and
Qwest Communications Corporation
(Qwest), Sprint Corporation (Sprint), US
Telecom, and, filing jointly, AT&T,
BellSouth, MCI, SBC and Verizon
(collectively, Joint Petitioners). These
seven petitions are disposed of in this
Order on Reconsideration. In a
companion document, a Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in PS
Docket No. 15–80, the Commission
seeks comment on modifications to the
Part 4 rules to improve their utility.
A. Issues Considered in the Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking
Certain proposals considered in the
(NPRM) incorporate issues raised in
various petitions. As we are considering
there the merits Petitioners’ requests for
relief on these issues, we will
incorporate into the record those
portions of Petitioners’ petitions that
present substantive arguments on these
issues. We also incorporate into the
record those portions of any responsive
pleadings filed in connection with the
Petitions that present substantive
arguments relevant to those issues. Any
other aspects of the petitions relating to
these issues are dismissed as moot.

B. Other Issues
We now consider those issues raised
in the various Petitions that we have not
addressed in the (NRPM). We grant or
deny each Petition to the extent
indicated below.
1. Reporting Obligations of ‘‘Pure
Resellers’’
Before withdrawing its Petition,
BellSouth requested therein that the
Commission clarify section 4.9(f) to
‘‘expressly state that pure resellers
(those that do not own, operate, or
maintain switching, routing, or
transmission facilities) are exempt from
the Commission’s reporting
requirements to the extent that a
network failure occurs on resold
facilities that are owned, operated, or
maintained by an underlying facilitiesbased provider.’’ BellSouth argued that
pure resellers should not be subject to
part 4 reporting obligations because
resellers do not have direct access to the
outage information that must be
reported, and that the only way that a
pure reseller becomes aware of a
network outage is ‘‘typically’’ through
‘‘customer calls, news reports . . . or
from the underlying facilities based
provider itself’’ and that ‘‘[n]one of
these methods . . . are routine or
foolproof.’’ Sprint also addresses this
issue in its Petition, focusing on section
4.3(b) of the rules, arguing that pure
resellers of wireless service ‘‘would not
be able to provide any information on
the extent and duration of the outage or
the cause of the outage.’’ Rather, Sprint
argues, the Commission can obtain this
information from reports filed by the
underlying facilities-based provider
because ‘‘customers of these [pure
reseller] providers are included in the
reports of the affected underlying
[facilities-based] wireless carrier.’’
Sprint argues that the provision
‘‘includ[ing] . . . affiliated and nonaffiliated entities that maintain or
provide communications networks or
services used by the provider in offering
such communications’’ could be read as
encompassing a wireless service
provider that does not own any wireless
facilities or maintain a wireless
network. Qwest also supports the
position that pure resellers should be
exempt from part 4 outage reporting.
NASUCA argued in its responsive
pleading, on the other hand, that
separate reporting by a pure reseller and
its underlying facilities-based
communications provider would ensure
‘‘that . . . the Commission . . . will
have a deeper understanding of the full
impact of the outage.’’ It maintained that
‘‘only the reseller knows how many

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS
38 CFR Part 36
RIN 2900-AN71
Loan Guaranty: Elimination of Redundant Regulations; Technical
Correction
AGENCY: Department of Veterans Affairs.
ACTION: Final rule; technical correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On June 15, 2010, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
published a document in the Federal Register (75 FR 33704), amending
its loan guaranty regulations to eliminate redundancies in the
regulations that
[[Page 34319]]
were a result of a new electronic reporting system. At that time, we
failed to update the cross-reference citations within the redesignated
sections. On October 22, 2010 (75 FR 65238), Sections 36.4301 through
36.4323(e) were amended to replace the incorrect cross-reference
citations with the accurate, updated cross-references. This document
corrects the remaining redesignated sections (Sec. 36.4324 through
Sec. 36.4393) to contain the correct and updated cross-reference
citations. These nonsubstantive changes are made for clarity and
accuracy.
DATES: Effective June 16, 2015.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joseph E. Simpson, Senior Attorney,
The Office of General Counsel, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 810
Vermont Avenue NW., (021D), Washington, DC 20420, (202) 368-6406.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 15, 2010 (75 FR 33704), VA amended
38 CFR part 36. The purpose of the amendments was to eliminate
redundant regulations found at 38 CFR 36.4300 through 36.4393 (the
``36.4300 series''). VA redesignated the regulations that had
previously been published at 38 CFR 36.4800 through Sec. 36.4893 (the
``36.4800 series'') to replace the 36.4300 series in its entirety. On
October 22, 2010 (75 FR 65238), VA amended the redesignated sections of
36.4301 through 36.4323(3) to replace the incorrect internal cross
references to the 36.4800 series contained within those sections, with
the updated, accurate internal cross references to the 36.4300 series.
That final rule technical citation failed to make the remaining
necessary corrections.
With this action, VA is amending the remaining 36.4300 series
regulations to update the internal cross-references to the 36.4800
series regulations. This action is necessary because the 36.4800 series
has been removed from 38 CFR part 36, making the current cross
reference citations to the series obsolete. VA is amending each
citation by simply replacing the numbers ``48'' with ``43'' (e.g.,
changing the reference to Sec. 36.4860 to read Sec. 36.4360).
For the convenience of the reader, we have included a redesignation
table that shows each affected section, the cross reference that is
removed, and the new cross reference that is added in its place.
Administrative Procedure Act
Because this final rule is only a technical correction to the
cross-references in certain regulations, prior notice-and-comment is
unnecessary. Accordingly, this final rule is exempt from this
requirement under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B). For the same reason, there is
good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) to publish this rule with an
immediate effective date.
List of Subjects in 38 CFR Part 36
Condominiums, Housing, Veterans with disabilities, Loan programs--
housing and community development, Loan programs--veterans, Grant
program--veterans, Manufactured homes, Mortgage insurance, Reporting
and recordkeeping requirements, Veterans.
Approved: May 29, 2015.
William F. Russo
Acting Director, Office of Regulation Policy and Management, Office of
the General Counsel, Department of Veterans Affairs.
For the reasons set forth in the preamble, 38 CFR 36.4324 through
36.4393 are corrected by making the following correction amendments:
