The Surface Transportation

adjustment to its civil monetary
penalties, pursuant to the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015.

I. Background
The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act Improvements Act of
2015 (2015 Act), enacted as part of the
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, Public
Law 114–74, 701, 129 Stat. 584, 599–
601, requires agencies to adjust their
civil penalties for inflation annually,
beginning on July 1, 2016, and no later
than January 15 of every year thereafter.
In accordance with the 2015 Act, annual
inflation adjustments are to be based on
the percent change between the
Consumer Price Index for all Urban
Consumers (CPI–U) for October of the
E:\FR\FM\31DER1.SGM
31DER1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 249 / Monday, December 31, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
previous year and the October CPI–U of
the year before that. Penalty level
adjustments should be rounded to the
nearest dollar.
II. Discussion
The statutory definition of civil
monetary penalty covers various civil
penalty provisions under the Rail (Part
A); Motor Carriers, Water Carriers,
Brokers, and Freight Forwarders (Part
B); and Pipeline Carriers (Part C)
provisions of the Interstate Commerce
Act, as amended. The Board’s civil (and
criminal) penalty authority related to
rail transportation appears at 49 U.S.C.
11901–11908. The Board’s penalty
authority related to motor carriers, water
carriers, brokers, and freight forwarders
appears at 49 U.S.C. 14901–14916. The
Board’s penalty authority related to
pipeline carriers appears at 49 U.S.C.
16101–16106.1 The Board has
regulations at 49 CFR pt. 1022 that
codify the method set forth in the 2015
Act for annually adjusting for inflation
the civil monetary penalties within the
Board’s jurisdiction.
As set forth in this final rule, the
Board is amending 49 CFR pt. 1022 to
make an annual inflation adjustment to
the civil monetary penalties in
conformance with the requirements of
the 2015 Act. The adjusted penalties set
forth in the rule will apply only to
violations that occur after the effective
date of this regulation.
In accordance with the 2015 Act, the
annual adjustment adopted here is
calculated by multiplying each current
penalty by the cost-of-living adjustment
factor of 1.02522, which reflects the
percentage change between the October
2018 CPI–U (252.885) and the October
2017 CPI–U (246.663). The table at the
end of this decision shows the statutory
citation for each civil penalty, a
description of the provision, the
adjusted statutory civil penalty level for
2018, and the adjusted statutory civil
penalty level for 2019.
III. Final Rule
The final rule set forth at the end of
this decision is being issued without
notice and comment pursuant to the
rulemaking provision of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(B), which does not require
that process ‘‘when the agency for good
cause finds’’ that public notice and
comment are ‘‘unnecessary.’’ Here,
Congress has mandated that the agency
make an annual inflation adjustment to
its civil monetary penalties. The Board
has no discretion to set alternative
levels of adjusted civil monetary
penalties, because the amount of the
inflation adjustment must be calculated
in accordance with the statutory
formula. Given the absence of
discretion, the Board has determined
that there is good cause to promulgate
this rule without soliciting public
comment and to make this regulation
effective immediately upon publication.
IV. Regulatory Flexibility Statement
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA),
as amended by the Small Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of
1996, 5 U.S.C. 601–612, generally
requires an agency to prepare a
regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule
subject to notice and comment
rulemaking requirements, unless the
agency certifies that the rule will not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities.
Because the Board has determined that
notice and comment are not required
under the APA for this rulemaking, the
requirements of the RFA do not apply.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule does not contain a new
or amended information collection
requirement subject to the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501–
3521.

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
49 CFR 1022
[Docket No. EP 716 (Sub-No. 4)]
Civil Monetary Penalties--2019 Adjustment
AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Surface Transportation Board (Board) is issuing a final
rule to implement the annual inflationary adjustment to its civil
monetary penalties, pursuant to the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015.
DATES: This final rule is effective on December 31, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonathon Binet: (202) 245-0368.
Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) for the hearing impaired:
(800) 877-8339.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements
Act of 2015 (2015 Act), enacted as part of the Bipartisan Budget Act of
2015, Public Law 114-74, 701, 129 Stat. 584, 599-601, requires agencies
to adjust their civil penalties for inflation annually, beginning on
July 1, 2016, and no later than January 15 of every year thereafter. In
accordance with the 2015 Act, annual inflation adjustments are to be
based on the percent change between the Consumer Price Index for all
Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for October of the
[[Page 67699]]
previous year and the October CPI-U of the year before that. Penalty
level adjustments should be rounded to the nearest dollar.
II. Discussion
The statutory definition of civil monetary penalty covers various
civil penalty provisions under the Rail (Part A); Motor Carriers, Water
Carriers, Brokers, and Freight Forwarders (Part B); and Pipeline
Carriers (Part C) provisions of the Interstate Commerce Act, as
amended. The Board's civil (and criminal) penalty authority related to
rail transportation appears at 49 U.S.C. 11901-11908. The Board's
penalty authority related to motor carriers, water carriers, brokers,
and freight forwarders appears at 49 U.S.C. 14901-14916. The Board's
penalty authority related to pipeline carriers appears at 49 U.S.C.
16101-16106.\1\ The Board has regulations at 49 CFR pt. 1022 that
codify the method set forth in the 2015 Act for annually adjusting for
inflation the civil monetary penalties within the Board's jurisdiction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The Board also has various criminal penalty authority,
enforceable in a federal criminal court. Congress has not, however,
authorized federal agencies to adjust statutorily prescribed
criminal penalty provisions for inflation, and this rule does not
address those provisions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As set forth in this final rule, the Board is amending 49 CFR pt.
1022 to make an annual inflation adjustment to the civil monetary
penalties in conformance with the requirements of the 2015 Act. The
adjusted penalties set forth in the rule will apply only to violations
that occur after the effective date of this regulation.
In accordance with the 2015 Act, the annual adjustment adopted here
is calculated by multiplying each current penalty by the cost-of-living
adjustment factor of 1.02522, which reflects the percentage change
between the October 2018 CPI-U (252.885) and the October 2017 CPI-U
(246.663). The table at the end of this decision shows the statutory
citation for each civil penalty, a description of the provision, the
adjusted statutory civil penalty level for 2018, and the adjusted
statutory civil penalty level for 2019.
III. Final Rule
The final rule set forth at the end of this decision is being
issued without notice and comment pursuant to the rulemaking provision
of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), which
does not require that process ``when the agency for good cause finds''
that public notice and comment are ``unnecessary.'' Here, Congress has
mandated that the agency make an annual inflation adjustment to its
civil monetary penalties. The Board has no discretion to set
alternative levels of adjusted civil monetary penalties, because the
amount of the inflation adjustment must be calculated in accordance
with the statutory formula. Given the absence of discretion, the Board
has determined that there is good cause to promulgate this rule without
soliciting public comment and to make this regulation effective
immediately upon publication.
IV. Regulatory Flexibility Statement
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as amended by the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 601-612,
generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility
analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking
requirements, unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Because the Board has determined that notice and comment are not
required under the APA for this rulemaking, the requirements of the RFA
do not apply.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule does not contain a new or amended information
collection requirement subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
