Section 3(a) of the Executive Order directs Federal agencies to establish a Regulatory Reform Task Force (Task Force). One of the duties of an agency Task Force is to evaluate existing regulations and ‘‘make recommendations to the agency head regarding their repeal, replacement, or modification.’’ The Executive Order further asks that each Task Force ‘‘attempt to identify regulations that: (i) Eliminate jobs, or inhibit job creation; (ii) Are outdated, unnecessary, or ineffective; (iii) Impose costs that exceed benefits; (iv) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with regulatory reform initiatives and policies; (v) Are inconsistent with the requirements of section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 2001 (44 U.S.C. 3516 note), or the guidance issued pursuant to that provision, in particular those regulations that rely in whole or in part on data, information, or methods that are not publicly available or that are insufficiently transparent to meet the standard for reproducibility; or (vi) Derive from or implement Executive Orders or other Presidential directives that have been subsequently rescinded or substantially modified.’’ Section 3(e) of the Executive Order calls on each Task Force to ‘‘seek input and other assistance, as permitted by law, from entities significantly affected by Federal regulations, including State, local, and tribal governments, small businesses, consumers, nongovernmental organizations, and trade associations’’ on regulations that meet some or all of the criteria above. A ‘‘regulation’’ for this purpose ‘‘means an agency statement of general or particular applicability and future effect designed to implement, interpret, or prescribe law or policy or to describe the procedure or practice requirements of an agency. . . .’’ See Executive Order 13771, section 4.

This revision will not impact the schedule for installation and operation of control equipment, will not alter any other compliance dates, and will not adversely affect air quality in Muscatine, Iowa. In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this Federal Register, we are approving the state’s SIP revisions as a direct final rule without a prior proposed rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  On February 24, 2017, President Trump 
signed Executive Order 13777, ``Enforcing the Regulatory Reform 
Agenda,'' which established a Federal policy ``to alleviate unnecessary 
regulatory burdens'' on the American people. Section 3(a) of the 
Executive Order directs Federal agencies to establish a Regulatory 
Reform Task Force (Task Force). One of the duties of an agency Task 
Force is to evaluate existing regulations and ``make recommendations to 
the agency head regarding their repeal, replacement, or modification.'' 
The Executive Order further asks that each Task Force ``attempt to 
identify regulations that:
    (i) Eliminate jobs, or inhibit job creation;
    (ii) Are outdated, unnecessary, or ineffective;
    (iii) Impose costs that exceed benefits;
    (iv) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with 
regulatory reform initiatives and policies;
    (v) Are inconsistent with the requirements of section 515 of the 
Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act, 2001 (44 U.S.C. 
3516 note), or the guidance issued pursuant to that provision, in 
particular those regulations that rely in whole or in part on data, 
information, or methods that are not publicly available or that are 
insufficiently transparent to meet the standard for reproducibility; or
    (vi) Derive from or implement Executive Orders or other 
Presidential directives that have been subsequently rescinded or 
substantially modified.''
    Section 3(e) of the Executive Order calls on each Task Force to 
``seek input and other assistance, as permitted by law, from entities 
significantly affected by Federal regulations, including State, local, 
and tribal governments, small businesses, consumers, non-governmental 
organizations, and trade associations'' on regulations that meet some 
or all of the criteria above. A ``regulation'' for this purpose ``means 
an agency statement of general or particular applicability and future 
effect designed to implement, interpret, or prescribe law or policy or 
to describe the procedure or practice requirements of an agency. . . 
.'' See Executive Order 13771, section 4.
    On June 22, 2017, the Department published a notice in the Federal 
Register (82 FR 28431) soliciting written comments from the public to 
inform its Task Force's evaluation of all of the Department's existing 
regulations and guidance, including regulations and

guidance related to postsecondary education programs, that have a 
policy impact. We are now announcing two public hearings that will 
supplement this effort by seeking public input on Department 
regulations and guidance specific to postsecondary education programs 
that may be appropriate for repeal, replacement, or modification. This 
includes regulations and guidance for the Federal Student Aid programs 
authorized under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as 
amended, as well as regulations and guidance for the institutional 
service, international and foreign language education, and student 
service programs.
