96-32967 Solid Waste Programs; Management Guidelines for Beverage Containers and Resource Recovery Facilities Guidelines; Removal of Obsolete Guidelines Rule The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is removing from the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) two guidelines pertaining to solid waste management which are obsolete. The activities addressed in these 1976 guidelines have been included in numerous state and local statutes and regulations and other Federal rules, or have been superseded by such Presidential actions as Executive Order 12873, ``Federal Acquisition, Recycling, and Waste Prevention.'' Deleting these guidelines from the CFR will have no measurable impact on solid waste management. In the proposed rules section of today's Federal Register, EPA is proposing to withdraw Parts 244 and 245 from Title 40 of the CFR. The accompanying proposal incorporates the contents of this direct final rule. If adverse comments are received on that notice of proposed rulemaking, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and address the comments received in a subsequent final rule. No additional opportunity for public comment will be provided. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-32967/solid-waste-programs-management-guidelines-for-beverage-containers-and-resource-recovery-facilities https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-32967.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is removing from the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) two guidelines pertaining to solid waste management which are obsolete.

96-32968 Solid Waste Programs; Management Guidelines for Beverage Containers and Resource Recovery Facilities Guidelines; Removal of Obsolete Guidelines Proposed Rule On March 4, 1995, the President directed all Federal agencies and departments to conduct a comprehensive review of the regulations they administer and, by June 1, 1995, to identify those rules that are obsolete or unduly burdensome. EPA has conducted a review of its rules, including rules issued under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Based on the review, EPA is today proposing to remove from the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) two guidelines pertaining to solid waste management which are obsolete. The activities addressed in these 1976 guidelines have been included in numerous state and local statutes and regulations and other Federal rules, or have been superseded by such Presidential actions as Executive Order 12873, ``Federal Acquisition, Recycling, and Waste Prevention.'' These guidelines are now obsolete because: the need for Part 244 guidelines for Federal facilities on beverage containers has passed with the implementation of state and local recycling mandates and requirements, RCRA Section 6001 requirements, and Executive Order 12873, and Part 245 requirements are incorporated into state and local laws and Part 256, which addresses the requirements for facility planning and implementation of resource recovery programs. Therefore, deleting these guidelines from the CFR will have no measurable impact on solid waste management. In the rules and regulations section of today's Federal Register, EPA is also promulgating a direct final rule to withdraw Parts 244 and 245 from Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). A detailed rationale for the removal of these guidelines is set forth in the direct final rule and is incorporated herein. Potential commenters should consult that notice. If no adverse comments are received in response to this notice, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule and Parts 244 and 245 will be withdrawn. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a… 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-32968/solid-waste-programs-management-guidelines-for-beverage-containers-and-resource-recovery-facilities https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-32968.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 On March 4, 1995, the President directed all Federal agencies and departments to conduct a comprehensive review of the regulations they administer and, by June 1, 1995, to identify those rules that are obsolete or unduly burdensome.

96-32972 Civil Monetary Penalty Inflation Adjustment Rule Rule The Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA'') is issuing this final Civil Monetary Penalty Inflation Adjustment Rule as mandated by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 to adjust EPA's civil monetary penalties (``CMPs'') for inflation on a periodic basis. Prior to this new law, EPA's penalties had never been adjusted for inflation. This rule will allow EPA's penalties to keep pace with inflation and thereby maintain the deterrent effect Congress intended when it originally specified penalties. This first mandatory adjustment increases almost all of EPA's penalty provisions by ten percent (except for new penalty provisions enacted into law in 1996, which are not being increased). The Agency is required to review its penalties again at least once every four years thereafter and to adjust them as necessary for inflation according to a specified formula. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-32972/civil-monetary-penalty-inflation-adjustment-rule https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-32972.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 The Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA'') is issuing this final Civil Monetary Penalty Inflation Adjustment Rule as mandated by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 to adjust EPA's civil monetary penalties (``CMPs'') for inflation on a...

96-33041 Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747 Series Airplanes Rule This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Boeing Model 747 series airplanes. This action requires a one-time inspection to detect fatigue cracking of the vertical beam webs and chords of the nose wheel well (NWW) at body station (BS) 300 and BS 320, and repair, if necessary. This action also requires inspections to detect fatigue cracking of the inner chord and web of the fuselage frames at BS 300 and BS 320, and repair, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by a report indicating that the fuselage frames at BS 300 and BS 320 severed approximately 10 inches outboard of the NWW side panel and resulted in accelerated fatigue cracking and subsequent failure of the adjacent NWW vertical beams. The actions specified in this AD are intended to detect and correct such fatigue cracking, which could result in collapse of the NWW pressure bulkhead and subsequent rapid decompression of the airplane. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33041/airworthiness-directives-boeing-model-747-series-airplanes https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33041.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Boeing Model 747 series airplanes.

The provisions will be used in conjunction with the Common Crop Insurance Policy Basic Provisions, which contain standard terms and conditions common to most crops. The intended effect of this action is to provide policy changes to better meet the needs of the insured, include the current Florida Citrus Endorsement with the Common Crop Insurance Policy for ease of use and consistency of terms, and to restrict the effect of the current Florida Citrus Endorsement to the 1997 and prior crop years. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33068/common-crop-insurance-regulations-florida-citrus-fruit-crop-insurance-provisions https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33068.pdf Agriculture Department; Federal Crop Insurance Corporation 12,163 The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) finalizes specific crop provisions for the insurance of Florida citrus.

96-33090 Medicare Program; Waiver of Recovery of Overpayments Rule On September 19, 1996, we published a final rule (61 FR 49269), which duplicated in HCFA's regulations the content of two sections of the Social Security Administration's (SSA) regulations concerning waiver of recovery of overpayments. Since SSA was restructuring its regulations to apply only to the Federal Old-Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance Program, we established the content of these sections in 42 CFR part 405 to preserve the content of the SSA regulations that are applicable to the Medicare Program. This notice corrects an error in the authority citation in that document. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33090/medicare-program-waiver-of-recovery-of-overpayments https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33090.pdf Health and Human Services Department; Health Care Finance Administration 221,559 On September 19, 1996, we published a final rule (61 FR 49269), which duplicated in HCFA's regulations the content of two sections of the Social Security Administration's (SSA) regulations concerning waiver of recovery of overpayments.

The new paragraph explains how the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) will conduct administrative deportation proceedings without immigration court hearings for certain aliens convicted of aggravated felonies in light of two recent statutory changes. The Service is promulgating this final rule to comply with the statutory requirement that the Service publish an implementing regulation by January 1, 1997. The final rule states that the Service will continue to process aliens under the current regulation until March 3, 1997, and will suspend administrative deportation proceedings from March 3, 1997, until the effective date of the implementing regulations for the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33092/administrative-deportation-procedures-for-aliens-convicted-of-aggravated-felonies-who-are-not-lawful https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33092.pdf Justice Department; Immigration and Naturalization Service 268,232 In accordance with section 442(d) of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 (AEDPA), this final rule adds a new paragraph to the administrative deportation proceedings regulation.

96-33097 Emergency Medical Services for Children Demonstration Grants Notice The HRSA in collaboration with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announces that approximately $ 4.1 million in fiscal year (FY) 1997 funds will be available for grants authorized under section 1910 of the PHS Act. These discretionary grants will be made to States or accredited schools of medicine to support projects for the expansion and improvement of emergency medical services for children (EMSC). Within the HRSA, EMSC grants are administered by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB). The NHTSA participated with the MCHB in developing program priorities for the EMSC program for FY 1997. The NHTSA will share the Federal monitoring responsibilities for EMSC awards made during FY 1997 and will continue to provide ongoing technical assistance and consultation in regard to the required collaboration/linkages between applicants and their Highway Safety Offices and Emergency Medical Services Agencies for the State(s). Grantees funded under this program are expected to work collaboratively with the State agency or agencies administering the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) and the Children with Special Health Needs (CSHN) programs under the MCH Services Block Grant, Title V of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 701). The PHS is committed to achieving the health promotion and disease prevention objectives of Healthy People 2000, a PHS led national activity for setting priority areas. The EMSC grant program will directly address the Healthy People 2000 objectives related to emergency medical services and trauma systems linking prehospital, hospital, and rehabilitation services in order to prevent trauma deaths and long-term disability. Potential applicants may obtain a copy of Healthy People 2000 (Full Report: Stock No. 017-001-00474-0) or Healthy People 2000 (Summary Report: Stock No. 017-001-00473-1) through the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402-9325 (telephone 202-783-3238).

96-33117 Pork and Pork Products from Mexico Transiting the United States Proposed Rule We are proposing to allow fresh, chilled, and frozen pork and pork products from the Mexican State of Baja California to transit the United States, under certain conditions, for export to another country. Currently, we allow such pork and pork products from the Mexican States of Sonora, Chihuahua, and Yucatan to transit the United States for export. Otherwise, the movement of fresh, chilled, or frozen pork and pork products into the United States from Mexico is prohibited because of hog cholera in Mexico. Baja California has not had an outbreak of hog cholera since 1985 and it appears that fresh, chilled, and frozen pork and pork products from Baja California could transit the United States under seal with minimal risk of introducing hog cholera. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33117/pork-and-pork-products-from-mexico-transiting-the-united-states https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33117.pdf Agriculture Department 12 We are proposing to allow fresh, chilled, and frozen pork and pork products from the Mexican State of Baja California to transit the United States, under certain conditions, for export to another country.

96-33131 Notice of Intent Notice The Department of Energy (DOE) announces its intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the management of a portion of the aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel <SUP>1 at the Savannah River Site. The Department's objective is to identify and implement appropriate actions to safely and efficiently manage all aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel and targets assigned to the Savannah River Site, including placing these materials in forms suitable for disposition. To this end, this EIS will cover that portion of the aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel inventory currently in storage at the Savannah River Site, as well as aluminum-clad foreign, domestic and government research reactor aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel that has been assigned to, but has not yet been received at the Savannah River Site. Approximately 188 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel and targets currently stored at the SRS are not considered within the scope of this EIS because the Department has already decided on the management strategy for these materials. The spent nuclear fuel included in this EIS consists of approximately 62 metric tons heavy metal of spent nuclear fuel: 34 metric tons currently at the Savannah River Site and 28 metric tons, foreign and domestic, to be shipped to the Savannah River Site. This Notice of Intent briefly describes the proposed DOE action and alternatives, announces the schedule for the public scoping meeting, and solicits public involvement. 1996-12-31 1996 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/31/96-33131/notice-of-intent https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-31/pdf/96-33131.pdf Energy Department 136 The Department of Energy (DOE) announces its intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the management of a portion of the aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel <SUP>1 at the Savannah River Site.
