ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 9
[FRL-5211-8]
OMB Approval Numbers Under the Paperwork Reduction Act
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Technical amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), this
technical amendment amends the table in 40 CFR part 9 that displays the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control numbers issued under the
PRA. This technical amendment amends the table of OMB control numbers
to include the OMB control number for the information collection
requirements in the rule entitled ``Mandatory Patent Licenses Under
Section 308 of the Clean Air Act.''
EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is effective June 29, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Thomas Eagles, Office of Policy Analysis and Review (Mail Code 6103),
Office of Air and Radiation, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 401
M Street SW., Washington, DC 20460. Telephone: (202) 260-5585.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA is today amending the table of currently
approved information collection request (ICR) control numbers issued by
OMB for various EPA regulations. Today's amendment updates the table to
display accurately the information requirements promulgated under the
rule entitled ``Mandatory Patent Licenses Under Section 308 of the
Clean Air Act'' which appeared in the Federal Register on December 30,
1994 (59 FR 67636-9). The affected regulation is codified at 40 CFR
part 95.
EPA will continue to present OMB control numbers in a consolidated
table format to be codified in 40 CFR part 9 of the Agency's
regulations. The table lists the CFR section numbers with reporting and
recordkeeping requirements, and the current OMB control numbers. This
display of the OMB control numbers and its subsequent codification in
the Code of Federal Regulations satisfies the requirements of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and OMB's implementing
regulations at 5 CFR 1320.
A final rule entitled ``Mandatory Patent Licenses Under Section 308
of the Clean Air Act'' was published in the Federal Register on
December 30, 1994. Notice of the ICR for this rule was previously
published for comment on August 29, 1994 (59 FR 44392). OMB approved
the ICR on October 3, 1994. The OMB approval of the ICR and the
associated OMB control number were published in the Federal Register on
December 30, 1994 (59 FR 67637). As a result, EPA finds that there is
``good cause'' under section 553(b)(B) of the Administrative Procedure
Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B)) to amend the table of OMB control numbers
without prior notice and comment. Due to the technical nature of the
table, further notice and comment would be unnecessary.
