ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 8 announces the deletion of the Operable Unit 2 (OU2), Former Screening Plant, of the Libby Asbestos Superfund Site (Site) located in Libby, Montana from the National Priorities List (NPL). The NPL, promulgated pursuant to section 105 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) of 1980, as amended, is an appendix of the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). This partial deletion pertains to all of OU2. Operable Unit 1 (OU1), Former Export Plant; Operable Unit 3 (OU3), Former Vermiculite Mine; Operable Unit 4 and Operable Unit 7 (OU4/OU7), Residential/Commercial Properties of Libby and Troy; Operable Unit 5 (OU5), Former Stimson Lumber Mill; Operable Unit 6 (OU6), BNSF Rail Corridor; and Operable Unit 8 (OU8), Highways and Roadways, are not being considered for deletion as part of this action and will remain on the NPL. The EPA and the State of Montana, through the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), have determined that all appropriate response actions under CERCLA, other than operation and maintenance, and five-year reviews, have been completed. However, the deletion of these parcels does not preclude future actions under Superfund. SUMMARY: DATES: This action is effective April 10, 2019. EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket Identification No. EPA–HQ–SFUND– 2002–0008. All documents in the docket are listed on the https:// www.regulations.gov website. Although listed in the index, some information is not publicly available, i.e., Confidential Business Information or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The portion of the site to be deleted from the NPL is: OU2 of the Libby Asbestos Superfund Site in Libby, Montana. A Notice of Intent for Partial Deletion for this Site was published in the Federal Register (84 FR 2122–2125) on February 6, 2019. The closing date for comments on the Notice of Intent for Partial Deletion was March 8, 2019. One set of public comments was received. The commenter does not object to the delisting; however, the commenter would like the Operations and Maintenance plan to be reviewed and updated. EPA commits to revising and updating the Operation and Maintenance plan for OU2 when new information necessitates an update. EPA activities completed at the site satisfy the NCP deletion criteria. EPA believes the partial deletion of OU2 of the Libby Asbestos Superfund Site from the NPL is appropriate. A responsiveness summary was prepared and placed in both the docket, EPA–HQ–SFUND– 2002–0008, on www.regulations.gov, and in the local repositories listed above. EPA maintains the NPL as the list of sites that appear to present a significant risk to public health, welfare, or the environment. Deletion of a site from the NPL does not preclude further remedial action. Whenever there is a significant release from a site deleted from the NPL, the deleted site may be restored to the NPL without application of the hazard ranking system. Deletion of portions of a site from the NPL does not affect responsible party liability, in the unlikely event that future conditions warrant further actions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background In FR Doc. No. 2019–03461 of March 4, 2019 (84 FR 7714 through 7791), there were several technical errors that are identified and corrected in the Correction of Errors section below. The provisions in this correction document are effective as if they had been included in the document published March 4, 2019. jbell on DSK30RV082PROD with RULES II. Summary of Errors Due to a technical error, on page 7714, in the 1st column, line 5, the Department inadvertently included an incorrect RIN number. The Department is correcting this error by inserting the correct RIN number. Due to a technical error, on page 7787, in the 1st column, line 4, the Department included an extra comma after ‘‘award’’ and omitted a comma after ‘‘grantee.’’ The Department is correcting this error by removing the comma in the one instance and adding a comma in the other instance. Due to a technical error, on page 7787, in the 2nd column, line 25 and the 3rd column, line 1, the Department included quotation marks around ‘‘low income family.’’ In the first instance, also due to a technical error, the Department capitalized ‘‘low.’’ The Department is correcting these errors by removing the quotation marks in both instances and replacing the capital ‘‘L’’ with a lower case ‘‘l’’ in the first instance. Due to a technical error, on page 7789, in the 3rd column, line 23, the Department simply described ‘‘section 1008 of the Act . . .’’ without specifying ‘‘Public Health Service.’’ The Department is correcting this error by clarifying ‘‘section 1008 of the Public Health Service Act . . .’’ Due to a technical error, on page 7791, in the 2nd column, lines 6 and 15, the Department included unnecessary commas. The Department is correcting this error by removing these commas. Due to a technical error, on page 7791, in the 3rd column, line 10, the Department inadvertently included a reference to a subsection ‘‘gg’’ regarding VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:10 Apr 09, 2019 Jkt 247001 § 59.18. The Department is correcting this error by removing the incorrect subsection (gg) notation regarding § 59.18. III. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking The Department will ordinarily publish a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register to provide a period for public comment before the provisions of a rule take effect in accordance with section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). However, the Department can waive this notice and comment procedure if the Secretary finds, for good cause, that the notice and comment process is impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, and incorporates a statement of the finding and the reasons therefore in the notice. Section 553(d) of the APA ordinarily requires a 30-day delay in effective date of final rules after the date of their publication in the Federal Register. This 30-day delay in effective date can be waived, however, if an agency finds for good cause that the delay is impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, and the agency incorporates a statement of the findings and its reasons in the rule issued. The Department finds it unnecessary to undertake notice and comment rulemaking because this notice merely provides technical corrections to the regulations. Therefore, the Department finds good cause to waive notice and comment procedures. IV. Correction of Errors In FR Rule Doc. No. 2019–03461 of March 4, 2019 (84 FR 7714 through 7791), the following correction to the preamble is made: 1.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    In FR Doc. No. 2019-03461 of March 4, 2019 (84 FR 7714 through 
7791), there were several technical errors that are identified and 
corrected in the Correction of Errors section below. The provisions in 
this correction document are effective as if they had been included in 
the document published March 4, 2019.

II. Summary of Errors

    Due to a technical error, on page 7714, in the 1st column, line 5, 
the Department inadvertently included an incorrect RIN number. The 
Department is correcting this error by inserting the correct RIN 
number.
    Due to a technical error, on page 7787, in the 1st column, line 4, 
the Department included an extra comma after ``award'' and omitted a 
comma after ``grantee.'' The Department is correcting this error by 
removing the comma in the one instance and adding a comma in the other 
instance.
    Due to a technical error, on page 7787, in the 2nd column, line 25 
and the 3rd column, line 1, the Department included quotation marks 
around ``low income family.'' In the first instance, also due to a 
technical error, the Department capitalized ``low.'' The Department is 
correcting these errors by removing the quotation marks in both 
instances and replacing the capital ``L'' with a lower case ``l'' in 
the first instance.
    Due to a technical error, on page 7789, in the 3rd column, line 23, 
the Department simply described ``section 1008 of the Act . . .'' 
without specifying ``Public Health Service.'' The Department is 
correcting this error by clarifying ``section 1008 of the Public Health 
Service Act . . .''
    Due to a technical error, on page 7791, in the 2nd column, lines 6 
and 15, the Department included unnecessary commas. The Department is 
correcting this error by removing these commas.
    Due to a technical error, on page 7791, in the 3rd column, line 10, 
the Department inadvertently included a reference to a subsection 
``gg'' regarding Sec.  59.18. The Department is correcting this error 
by removing the incorrect subsection (gg) notation regarding Sec.  
59.18.

III. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking

    The Department will ordinarily publish a notice of proposed 
rulemaking in the Federal Register to provide a period for public 
comment before the provisions of a rule take effect in accordance with 
section 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 
553(b)). However, the Department can waive this notice and comment 
procedure if the Secretary finds, for good cause, that the notice and 
comment process is impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the 
public interest, and incorporates a statement of the finding and the 
reasons therefore in the notice.
    Section 553(d) of the APA ordinarily requires a 30-day delay in 
effective date of final rules after the date of their publication in 
the Federal Register. This 30-day delay in effective date can be 
waived, however, if an agency finds for good cause that the delay is 
impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, and the 
agency incorporates a statement of the findings and its reasons in the 
rule issued.
    The Department finds it unnecessary to undertake notice and comment 
rulemaking because this notice merely provides technical corrections to 
the regulations. Therefore, the Department finds good cause to waive 
notice and comment procedures.
