Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 233 / Monday, December 5, 2016 / Proposed Rules
EPA’s role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of
the CAA. EPA is proposing to determine
that the prong 4 portion of the
aforementioned SIP submission does
not meet Federal requirements.
Therefore, this proposed action does not
impose additional requirements on the
state beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this proposed
action:
• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ subject to review by the Office
of Management and Budget under
Executive Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821,
January 21, 2011);
• does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
• is certified as not having a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
• does not contain any unfunded
mandate or significantly or uniquely
affect small governments, as described
in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4);
• does not have Federalism
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999);
• is not an economically significant
regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
• is not a significant regulatory action
subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001);
• is not subject to requirements of
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because
application of those requirements would
be inconsistent with the CAA; and
• does not provide EPA with the
discretionary authority to address, as
appropriate, disproportionate human
health or environmental effects, using
practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
The SIP is not approved to apply on
any Indian reservation land or in any
other area where EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has
jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the rule does not have tribal
implications as specified by Executive
Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9,
2000), nor will it impose substantial
direct costs on tribal governments or
preempt tribal law.

I. Background
In consultation with the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA),
PHMSA (also ‘‘we’’ or ‘‘us’’) proposes to
amend the Hazardous Materials
Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR parts 171–
180) to more closely align with certain
provisions of the International Civil
Aviation Organization’s Technical
Instructions for the Safe Transport of
Dangerous Goods (ICAO TI). This NPRM
also responds to four petitions for
rulemaking submitted by the regulated
community. The intended effect of these
amendments is to update miscellaneous
regulatory requirements for hazardous
materials offered for transportation, or
transported, in commerce by aircraft.
The petitions are included in the docket
for this proceeding and are discussed at
length in Section II (‘‘Overview of
Proposals in this NPRM’’) of this
rulemaking.
