SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

You may be potentially affected by this action if you are an
agricultural producer, food manufacturer, or pesticide manufacturer.
Potentially affected entities may include, but are not limited to:
• Crop production (NAICS 111), e.g., Agricultural workers;
Greenhouse, nursery, and floriculture workers; Farmers.
• Animal production (NAICS 112), e.g., Cattle ranchers and

This listing is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides
a guide for readers regarding entities likely to be affected by this
action. Other types of entities not listed in this unit could also be
affected. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS)
codes have been provided to assist you and others in determining
whether this action might apply to certain entities. If you have any

B. How Can I Access Electronic Copies of This Document and Other
Related Information?
In addition to using EDOCKET (http://www.epa.gov/edocket/), you may
access this Federal Register document electronically through the EPA
Internet under the ``Federal Register'' listings at http://www.epa.gov/
fedrgstr/. A frequently updated electronic version of 40 CFR part 180
is available on E-CFR Beta Site Two at http://www.gpoaccess.gov/ecfr/.II. Why Is this Correction Issued as a Final Rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), provides that, when an Agency for good cause finds that
notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary or contrary
to the public interest, the agency may issue a final rule without
providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. EPA has
determined that there is good cause for making this technical
correction final without prior proposal and opportunity for comment,
because EPA is merely inserting language that was inadvertently omitted
from the previously published final rule. EPA finds that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).
[[Page 32282]]
III. Do Any of the Statutory and Executive Order Reviews Apply to this
Action?
This final rule is a technical correction. It does not otherwise
impose or amend any requirements. As such, this action is not a
``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866, entitled
Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), and is
therefore not subject to review by OMB.
Because this action is not economically significant as defined by
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, this action is not subject to
Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997).
This rule does not contain any new information collection
requirements that require review or approval by OMB pursuant to PRA.
Since the Agency has made a ``good cause'' finding that this action
is not subject to notice and comment requirements under the APA or any
other statute (see Unit II.), this action is not subject to the
regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), or to sections 202 and 205 of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4).
In addition, this action does not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments or impose a significant intergovernmental mandate, as
described in sections 203 and 204 of UMRA. This rule will not have
substantial direct effects 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, as
specified in Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255,
August 10, 1999). Similarly, this rule will not have substantial direct
effects on tribal governments, 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, as
specified in Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (59 FR 22951, November 6,
2000).
This action does not involve any technical standards that require
the Agency's consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to
section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).
This rule 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), because this action
is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
This action will not result in environmental justice related issues
and does not therefore, require special consideration under Executive
Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice
in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994).
IV. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. 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 this final rule in the Federal Register. This final
rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
