Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 78 / Tuesday, April 25, 2017 / Proposed Rules
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
This rulemaking action proposes to
make a determination of attainment on
the 2008 ozone NAAQS based on air
quality and, if finalized, would not
impose additional requirements. For
that reason, this proposed determination
of attainment:
• 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).
This SIP, proposing to determine that
the Washington Area attained the 2008
ozone NAAQS by its July 20, 2016
attainment date, is not approved to
apply on any Indian reservation land as
defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151 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 and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000).

sections 1.415 and 1.419 of the

10–90, WT Docket No. 10–208. The
FNPRM set deadlines for filing
comments and reply comments at 30
and 45 days, respectively, after
publication of the FNPRM in the
Federal Register. A summary of the
FNPRM was published in the Federal
Register on March 13, 2017. 78 FR

were established as April 12, 2017 for
comments and April 27, 2017 for reply
comments. The deadline for filing
justifications for confidentiality requests
in the Form 477 Public Notice was
established as April 12, 2017. On April
7, 2017, CTIA filed a request to extend
the comment deadline by 14 days and
to extend the reply comment deadline
by 14 days thereafter. CTIA also
requested a 14-day extension of the
justification for confidentiality requests

for mobile speed data from the Form
477 Public Notice. CTIA states that
these extensions are warranted to
establish a full and complete record,
better address technically complex and
complicated questions, and increase the
possibility of its developing an industry
consensus proposal for the challenge
process before submitting comments
and reply comments. We grant the
requested extensions.
2. As set forth in section 1.46 of the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.46(a), the
Commission’s policy is that extensions
of time for filing comments in
rulemaking proceedings shall not be
routinely granted. In the instant case,
however, we find that granting an
extension of the comment and reply
comment periods will serve the public
interest by allowing consumer and

industry representatives additional time
to seek consensus regarding the FNPRM
issues and by facilitating the
development of a more complete record
on complicated issues. Further, given
that the Commission has extended the
deadlines for filing comments and reply
comments in this matter, it will also
extend the deadline to submit
justifications for confidentiality requests
for the minimum advertised or expected
4G LTE mobile speeds included in their
Form 477 filings in order to allow the
related deadlines to remain aligned.
