What is codification and is EPA codifying Maine’s hazardous waste program as authorized in this rule? [FR Doc. 2020–13900 Filed 6–25–20; 8:45 am] Codification is the process of placing citations and references to the State’s statutes and regulations that comprise the State’s authorized hazardous waste program into the Code of Federal Regulations. EPA does this by adding those citations and references to the authorized State rules in 40 CFR part 272. EPA is not codifying the authorization of Maine’s revisions as part of today’s action. D.

The TRACED Act directed the Commission to prescribe implementing regulations in accordance with section 3 of the TRACED Act within 270 days after enactment. SUMMARY: DATES: The rule is effective July 27, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Synopsis 1. In crafting the Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence Act (TRACED Act), Congress acknowledged the need for enhanced penalties and additional time for the Commission to pursue entities that violate the restrictions on robocalls. In this Order, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopts final rules to implement section 3 of the TRACED Act (Section 3). 2. Accordingly, this Order amends section 1.80 of the Commission’s rules. We move directly to an order here because implementation of Section 3 entails no exercise of our administrative discretion and, therefore, notice and comment procedures are unnecessary under the ‘‘good cause’’ exception to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). 3. Section 227 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the Communications Act) is designed to protect consumers from unsolicited, unlawful calls by restricting autodialed or pre-recorded message calls and unsolicited facsimiles, and by minimizing transmission of misleading or inaccurate caller ID information. Section 227 of the Communications Act is known as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). 4. Section 227(b) restricts calls using an automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice. It prohibits calls to residential phones if the call uses an artificial or prerecorded voice message, unless the called party consents or the call is for an emergency purpose. Absent coverage by a relevant exception, such practices are known colloquially as illegal ‘‘robocalling.’’ The provision also prohibits unsolicited advertisements to facsimile machines unless the party receiving the facsimile has a preexisting business relationship with the sender, has consented to receive the facsimile, or has agreed to make available its facsimile number for public distribution. 5. Section 227(e), also known as the Truth in Caller ID Act, prohibits ‘‘caus[ing] any caller identification service’’ in connection with any voice service or text message service to ‘‘knowingly transmit misleading or inaccurate caller identification information with the intent to defraud, cause harm or wrongfully obtain anything of value[.]’’ Such practices are known colloquially as ‘‘spoofing.’’ 6. Section 3 of the TRACED Act amends section 227(b) of the TCPA in several respects. First, it removes the requirement that the Commission issue a citation, or warning, pursuant to E:\FR\FM\26JNR1.SGM 26JNR1
