D. Federalism and Indian Tribal
Governments
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requires
Federal agencies to assess the effects of
their discretionary regulatory actions. In
particular, the Act addresses actions
that may result in the expenditure by a
State, local, or tribal government, in the
aggregate, or by the private sector of
$100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or
more in any one year. Though this rule
will not result in such an expenditure,
we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment
We have analyzed this rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated
implementing instructions, and
Environmental Planning COMDTINST
5090.1 (series), which guide the Coast
Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have
determined that this action is one of a
category of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves safety

Macatawa River around position

ADDRESSES
A rule has implications for federalism
under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship
between the National Government and
the States, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government. We have
analyzed this rule under that order and
have determined that it is consistent
with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements
described in Executive Order 13132.
Also, this rule does not have tribal
implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial
direct effect on one or more Indian
tribes, on the relationship between the
Federal Government and Indian tribes,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes.
54239
The Coast Guard respects the First
Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to call or email the
person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to
coordinate protest activities so that your
message can be received without
jeopardizing the safety or security of
people, places, or vessels.

Intelligent Mail Package Barcode
Compliance Quality
Postal ServiceTM.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Postal Service is
amending Mailing Standards of the
United States Postal Service, Domestic
Mail Manual (DMM®) to add an
additional Intelligent Mail® package
barcode (IMpb®) validation under the
‘‘Barcode Quality’’ compliance category.
DATES: Effective October 1, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Steven Jarboe at (202) 268–7690, Devin
Qualls at (202) 268–3287, or Garry
Rodriguez at (202) 268–7281.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June
28, 2023, the Postal Service published a
notice of proposed rulemaking (88 FR
41871–41872) to add an additional
IMpb validation. In response to the
proposed rule, the Postal Service did
not receive any formal comments.
The Postal Service is adding a third
validation under the ‘‘Barcode Quality’’
compliance category that will require
that an IMpb must include a valid,
unique 3-digit STC that accurately
represents the mail class, product, and
service combination on the physical
label affixed to the package.
Additionally, the IMpb on the package
must also correspond with electronic
package level details and Extra Services
Code(s) contained within the Shipping
Services File (SSF). Any variance in the
data presented in the electronic
submission of a parcel or a variance
with the physical aspect of the label
affixed to a parcel presented for mailing
will be subject to the IMpb
noncompliance fee if a mailer falls
below the 98 percent threshold.
We believe this revision will ensure
IMpb quality enabling the Postal Service
to provide customers with a more
efficient mailing experience.
The Postal Service adopts the
described changes to Mailing Standards
of the United States Postal Service,
Domestic Mail Manual (DMM),
incorporated by reference in the Code of
Federal Regulations.
