FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
This final
rule removes from the CFR part 273 of
title 33, ‘‘Aquatic Plant Control,’’ which
prescribes policies, procedures and
guidelines for research, planning and
operations for the Aquatic Plant Control
Program of the Corps under authority of
section 104 of the Rivers and Harbors
Act of 1958, as amended by section 104
of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1962
and Section 302 of the Rivers and
Harbors Act of 1965. This law, codified
at 33 U.S.C. 610 has been amended
several more times, most recently by
section 1039(d) of the Water Resources
Reform and Development Act of 2014
and section 1178(b) of the Water
Resources Development Act of 2016.
The Aquatic Plant Control Program is
designed to deal primarily with weed
infestations of major economic
significance including those that have
reached that stage and those that have
that potential in navigable waters,
tributaries, streams, connecting
channels and allied waters. The
regulation governs a program that
manages cost-share authority between
the Federal government and another
governmental agency. This rule was
initially published on June 3, 1976 (41
FR 22346). While the rule applies only
to the Corps’ Aquatic Plant Program, it
was published, at that time, in the
Federal Register to aid public
accessibility.
The solicitation of public comment
for this removal is unnecessary because
the rule is out-of-date, duplicative of
existing internal agency guidance, and
otherwise covers internal agency
operations that have no public
compliance component or adverse
public impact. For current public
accessibility purposes, updated internal
agency policy on this topic may be
found in Engineer Regulation 1130-2500, ‘‘Project Operations Partners and
Support (Work Management Policies)’’
(available at https://

applicable to field operating activities
having responsibility for the Aquatic
Plant Program projects and provides
guidance specific to the Corps’ control
of aquatic plants.
This rule removal is being conducted
to reduce confusion for the public as
well as for the Corps regarding the
current policy which governs the Corps’
Aquatic Plant Program. Because the
regulation does not place a burden on
the public, its removal does not provide
a reduction in public burden or costs.

I. Background and Purpose
II. Final Action
III. Incorporation by Reference
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Background and Purpose
On March 15, 2021 (86 FR 14299),
EPA published a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (NPRM) for the State of
Connecticut.
The NPRM proposed approval of
Connecticut’s SIP revision, which
replaced two definitions within the
previously approved Regulations of
Connecticut State Agencies (RCSA)
Section 22a–174–22e, Control of NOx
Emissions from Fuel-burning
Equipment at Major Stationary Sources
of NOX. The revision proposed to add to
the State’s SIP a recent amendment to
22a–174–22e concerning the definitions
of ‘‘emergency’’ and ‘‘emergency
engine,’’ which became effective as a
state requirement on October 8, 2019.
Additionally, two compliance options
were removed from RCSA section 22a–
174–22e(g) in light of the revised
definitions for emergency and
emergency engine.
The formal SIP revision was
submitted by Connecticut on December
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:14 Jul 13, 2021
Jkt 253001
20, 2019. The rationale for EPA’s
proposed action is explained in the
NPRM and will not be restated here.
There were no public comments
received on the NPRM.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving Connecticut’s
December 20, 2019 SIP revision request
pertaining to its definitions for
emergency and emergency engine and
the removal of compliance options
affected by the revised definitions.
III. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, the EPA is finalizing
regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In
accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the
incorporation by reference of the
definitions for emergency and
emergency engines and the removal of
compliance options affected by the
revised definitions described in the
amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth
below. The EPA has made, and will
continue to make, these documents
generally available through and at the
EPA Region 1 Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
preamble for more information).https://
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA
Region 1 Office (please contact the
person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
preamble for more information).
IV. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the
Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the
provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k);
40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP
submissions, EPA’s role is to approve
state choices, provided that they meet
the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed action
merely approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not
impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that
reason, this proposed action:
• Is not a significant regulatory action
subject to review by the Office of
Management and Budget under
Executive Orders12866 (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821,
January 21, 2011);
• Does not impose an information
collection burden under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
• Is certified as not having a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities
PO 00000
Frm 00054
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
• Does not contain any unfunded
mandate or significantly or uniquely
affect small governments, as described
in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4);
• Does not have federalism
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999);
• Is not an economically significant
regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order
13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997);
• Is not a significant regulatory action
subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001);
• Is not subject to requirements of
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because
application of those requirements would
be inconsistent with the Clean Air Act;
and
• Does not provide EPA with the
discretionary authority to address, as
appropriate, disproportionate human
health or environmental effects, using
practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898
(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, the SIP is not approved
to apply on any Indian reservation land
or in any other area where EPA or an
Indian tribe has demonstrated that a
tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have
tribal implications and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000).

C8-C18 Saturated and Unsaturated
Alcohol and Adipic Acid; (also known
as AASUAA) when used as an inert
ingredient in a pesticide chemical
formulation. Croda Inc. submitted a
petition to EPA under the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA),
requesting an exemption from the
requirement of a tolerance. This
regulation eliminates the need to
establish a maximum permissible level

The formal SIP revision was submitted by Connecticut on December
20, 2019. The rationale for EPA's proposed action is explained in the
NPRM and will not be restated here. There were no public comments
received on the NPRM.
II. Final Action
EPA is approving Connecticut's December 20, 2019 SIP revision
request pertaining to its definitions for emergency and emergency
engine and the removal of compliance options affected by the revised
definitions.
III. Incorporation by Reference
In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
definitions for emergency and emergency engines and the removal of
compliance options affected by the revised definitions described in the
amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth below. The EPA has made, and
will continue to make, these documents generally available through and

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more
information).https://www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 1 Office
(please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed action merely approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that reason, this proposed action:
Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
Does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where EPA or an Indian tribe has
demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian

substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
