Indian Tribal Governments ■ 1. The authority citation for part 165 continues to read as follows: [EPA–R09–OAR–2015–0608; FRL–9934–51– Region 9] 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. Authority: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 50 U.S.C. 191; 33 CFR 1.05–1, 6.04–1, 6.04–6, and 160.5; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1. Designation for Planning Purposes; California; PM10; Technical Amendment L. Energy Effects This action is not a ‘‘significant energy action’’ under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. M. Technical Standards This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards. Lhorne on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES N. 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 concluded this action is one of a category of actions which do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This rule involves the establishment of a safety zone and is therefore 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 will be prepared and submitted after publication, and will be 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.

In our March 19, 2013 direct final rule, we amended the entry for ‘‘Imperial Valley planning area’’ but did not intend to amend any other entry in the table listing PM10 air quality planning area designations for the State of California. We believe, however, that the entry appearing directly after the entry for ‘‘Imperial Valley planning area’’ in the ‘‘California-PM–10’’ table and reading ‘‘Rest of State; 11/15/90; Unclassifiable’’ was deleted inadvertently when the entry for ‘‘Imperial Valley planning area’’ was amended.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: GSA is amending the Federal Management Regulation (FMR) to recommend that agencies annually submit to GSA their prior fiscal year transaction level transportation data for freight and cargo, including household goods (HHG), procured either through contract or tender, as well as their transportation management information. The request for transaction level data and transportation management information is a change from the Notice of the Proposed Rulemaking’s recommendation that agencies annually submit to GSA a summary of their transportation activities. Specifically, this rule recommends that agencies report transaction level transportation data for freight and cargo, including HHG, such as shipments by procurement method, spending, transportation service providers (TSP), Lhorne on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 13:50 Sep 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 Type * 11/15/90 * Unclassifiable. and shipping profiles. This rule also recommends that agencies report their transportation management information, such as environmental justice information, agency points of contact, and transportation officer warrant information and training data. This rule will provide GSA the data necessary for analysis, which will assist GSA in developing enhanced Governmentwide transportation policies to make transportation management programs more efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable.

Background In almost every purchase of supplies and equipment from vendors, something must be moved and delivered. Since the early 1860s, the Federal Government has procured transportation using either a contract or a tender of service (also called a rate tender). There are Federal transportation laws and regulations that govern each of the five modes of transportation (air, water, pipeline, rail, and ground). Each mode has advantages and disadvantages that should be evaluated for cost, sustainability, speed of delivery, etc. The expense of moving this freight or cargo, including HHG, can be managed by the agency, consolidated as a shared service across agencies, or PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4700 Date Sfmt 4700 * Type * the TSP, depending upon the contract or tender of service terms. Over the last several years, GSA has worked with the Governmentwide Transportation Policy Council (GTPC) to identify key transportation performance measures, data elements, and collection standards necessary for more informed decision-making. The GTPC is composed of representatives from civilian agencies and the Department of Defense, and provides guidance in the planning and development of uniform transportation policies and procedures. Best in class organizations exhibit a consistent set of behaviors to identify and implement improved processes that maximize the efficiency, cost effectiveness, and sustainability of their transportation operations. Organizations seeking continuous improvement monitor, measure, and compare their performance against other organizations to improve return on investments, generate greater savings, enhance supply chain, and improve sustainability. The GTPC supports data collection as a necessary first step to improve transportation management. In 2009, GSA contracted for a Governmentwide transportation management study. The study concluded that ‘‘most agencies have no single point of accountability for outbound transportation, have limited transparency into actual expenditures, and usually do not identify the most appropriate procurement method.’’ The study also identified inadequate research into the acquisition and selection of a TSP, and a lack of standard training, expertise, and operational approaches to transportation management.

Designation for Planning Purposes; California; PM10; Technical 
Amendment

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making a 
technical amendment to the Code of Federal Regulations to restore the 
inadvertent deletion of the entry for ``Rest of State'' from the table 
listing California air quality planning area designations for 
particulate matter of ten microns of less (PM10).

DATES: This technical amendment is effective on September 22, 2015.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jerry Wamsley, EPA Region IX, (415) 
947-4111, wamsley.jerry@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 19, 2013, the EPA published a 
direct final rule amending 40 CFR 81.305 to clarify the description of 
the Imperial Valley planning area, an area designated nonattainment for 
the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for particulate 
matter of ten microns of less (PM10) (78 FR 16792). In our 
March 19, 2013 direct final rule, we amended the entry for ``Imperial 
Valley planning area'' but did not intend to amend any other entry in 
the table listing PM10 air quality planning area 
designations for the State of California. We believe, however, that the 
entry appearing directly after the entry for ``Imperial Valley planning 
area'' in the ``California-PM-10'' table and reading ``Rest of State; 
11/15/90; Unclassifiable'' was deleted inadvertently when the entry for 
``Imperial Valley planning area'' was amended. For example, see and 
compare the ``California-PM-10'' table within the July 1, 2012 version 
to the July 1, 2013 version of 40 CFR 81.305.
    Consequently, the EPA is publishing this technical amendment to 
restore the ``Rest of State'' designation entry within
