Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 89 / Wednesday, May 10, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
The Office is removing the position/title
and address fields for the primary and
secondary account contacts from the
system; the Office has determined that
such information is not necessary for
Office communications. The
organization field and fields relating to
the secondary contact will remain, but
will be made optional, as certain service
providers might find it useful to include
this information. Nonetheless, the Office
still strongly encourages all service
providers to provide a secondary
contact as a backup to best ensure that
important communications from the
Office—especially renewal reminders—
reach the appropriate person.
Because the current regulation only
requires this information for
administrative purposes, this final rule
is a non-substantive, procedural change
not ‘‘alter[ing] the rights or interests of
parties,’’ and thus is not subject to the
notice and comment requirements of the
Administrative Procedure Act.3
Furthermore, the Office finds good
cause that permitting notice and
comment would be ‘‘contrary to the
public interest’’ in this instance.4
Because this final rule will make it even
easier and faster for service providers to
register an account with the new
system, and should reduce any
confusion or burden on smaller service
providers, it is in the public’s best
interest that it take effect without delay.
For these same reasons, the Office is
making this final rule effective on May
10, 2017, when updates to the electronic
system will be made to implement it.5

Approval and Promulgation of Air
Quality Implementation Plans; Virginia;
Removal of Stage II Gasoline Vapor
Recovery Requirements for Gasoline

Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is approving a state
implementation plan (SIP) revision
submitted by the Commonwealth of
Virginia. The revision includes
regulatory amendments that allow
gasoline dispensing facilities (GDFs)
located in Northern Virginia,
Fredericksburg, and Richmond that are
currently required to install and operate
vapor recovery equipment on gasoline
dispensers (otherwise referred to as
Stage II vapor recovery, or simply as
Stage II) to decommission that
equipment by January 2017. In prior
rulemaking actions, EPA already
approved Virginia’s demonstrations that
decommissioning Stage II is consistent
with the Clean Air Act (CAA) and EPA
guidance. The intended effect of this
action is to approve Virginia’s revised
petroleum transfer and storage
regulation to allow for decommissioning
of Stage II equipment.
DATES: This final rule is effective on
June 9, 2017.
