The EPA determined a higher tolerance was required by calculating the recommended tolerance for carrot and radish data separately and using the highest recommended tolerance rather than calculating the recommended tolerance using the combined carrot and radish data as the registrant did. The Agency also revised the commodity definition to use standard terminology for the subgroup. Additionally, the petition requested that ginseng be excluded from the tolerance for subgroup 1B. However, rather than exclude ginseng from this tolerance to avoid duplicative tolerances, EPA is removing the established tolerance of 0.3 ppm for residues of benzovindiflupyr in or on ginseng because it is included in the crop subgroup covered by this tolerance. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES V. Conclusion Therefore, a tolerance is established for residues of benzovindiflupyr, in or on vegetable, root, except sugar beet, subgroup 1B at 0.6 ppm. In addition, EPA is removing the established tolerance for residues of benzovindiflupyr in or on ginseng at 0.3 ppm. VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews This action establishes tolerances under FFDCA section 408(d) in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from review under Executive Order 12866, entitled ‘‘Regulatory Planning and Review’’ (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this action has been exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled ‘‘Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled ‘‘Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks’’ (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not contain any information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), nor does it require any special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled ‘‘Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations’’ (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis of a petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the tolerance in this final rule, do not VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Sep 28, 2022 Jkt 256001 require the issuance of a proposed rule, the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), do not apply. This action directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States or Tribes, nor does this action alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or Tribal Governments, on the relationship between the National Government and the States or Tribal Governments, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled ‘‘Federalism’’ (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled ‘‘Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments’’ (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this action. In addition, this action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.). This action does not involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). VII. Congressional Review Act Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

Section 851 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 (Pub. L. 109–364) required GAO to report on recent employment of former DoD officials by major defense contractors. In May 2008, GAO issued a report titled ‘‘Defense Contracting: Post-Government Employment of Former DoD Officials Needs Greater Transparency (GAO–08– 485).’’ GAO concluded that greater transparency was needed by DoD with respect to former senior and acquisition executives (i.e., DoD ‘‘covered officials’’) to ensure compliance with applicable post-employment restrictions. Subsequently, DoD issued a final rule in the Federal Register at 76 FR 71826, effective November 18, 2011, which implemented the GAO recommendation by adding a new representation for offerors to complete and provide as part of each proposal, including proposals for commercial items. The representation is required only one time rather than continuously throughout contract performance. The solicitation provision at DFARS 252.203–7005, Representation Relating to Compensation of Former DoD Officials, is a representation that all of the offeror’s employees who are former DoD officials are in compliance with all postemployment restrictions at 18 U.S.C. 207, 41 U.S.C. 2101–2107, and 5 CFR parts 2637 and 2641, as well as Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 3.104–2. A more recent GAO Report titled ‘‘GAO–21–104311, Post-Government Employment Restrictions-DoD Could Further Enhance Its Compliance Efforts Related to Former Employees Working for Defense Contractors,’’ dated September 9, 2021, states that in 2011 DoD modified its acquisition regulations to require that contractors, when submitting proposals in response to DoD solicitations, represent their employees’ compliance with several postGovernment employment restrictions. Although GAO recognized that DoD has provided guidance on section 1045 of the NDAA for FY 2018 (Pub. L. 115–91), to include DoD Instruction 1000.32, ‘‘Prohibition of Lobbying Activity by Former DoD Senior Officials,’’ the GAO report pointed out that DoD has not added section 1045 of the NDAA for FY 2018 to the list of post-Government E:\FR\FM\29SER1.SGM 29SER1
