Tennessee—63 FR 50162 (September 21, 1998) State of Florida—63 FR 50163 (September 21, 1998) States of Alabama & Georgia—64 FR 14393 (March 25, 1999)
The *SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION* section of the *Federal Register* notices listed above contains a list of sections that will not be delegated for that subpart.
The list currently contains the following citation:
1. Subpart A—§ 60.8(b)(1) thru (5), § 60.11(e)(7) and (8), § 60.13(g), (i), and (j)(2)
The list should be amended to contain the following citation:

**Administrative Requirements**
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted this regulatory action from Executive Order 12866, entitled “Regulatory Planning and Review.”
Because this corrective notice is not subject to notice-and-comment requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any other statute, it is not subject to the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 *et seq.* ).
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. Section 808 allows the issuing agency to make a rule effective sooner than otherwise provided by the CRA if the agency makes a good cause finding that notice and public procedure is impracticable, unnecessary or contrary to the public interest. This determination must be supported by a brief statement. 5 U.S.C. 808(2). As stated previously, EPA has made such a good cause finding, including the reasons therefor, and established an effective date of July 28, 2000. 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).
**Authority:**
This notice is issued under the authority of sections 101, 110, 111, 112 and 301 of the Clean Air Act, as Amended (42 U.S.C. 7401, 7410, 7411, 7412 and 7601).
Dated: June 19, 2000.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 4.
