Regulatory Agenda

AGENCY: Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).

ACTION: Regulatory agenda.

_______________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY: As a nonregulatory agency, TVA originates few regulations. 
However, TVA has two regulations under development and has published a 
notice of proposed rulemaking with regard to a third regulation. In 
addition, TVA has published an interim final common rule with regard to 
a fourth regulation and will publish a fifth regulation as a final 
rule. TVA is therefore publishing a regulatory agenda in voluntary 
compliance with Executive Order No. 12866.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information, please 
contact the persons listed.

Edward S. Christenbury,

General Counsel.

4532. PROTECTION OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES; UNIFORM REGULATIONS

Legal Authority:  16 USC 470ii(a)

CFR Citation:  18 CFR 1312

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The proposed rule would revise the prohibited acts section of 
the uniform regulations to conform to recent amendments to the 
Archaeological Resources Protection Act, thus enabling Federal land 
managers to assess civil penalties for the attempt to excavate, remove, 
damage, alter, or otherwise deface archaeological resources. The 
proposed rule would thus affect persons who make unauthorized use of 
archaeological resources or attempt to do so.

4533. PROTECTION OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES; UNIFORM REGULATIONS

Legal Authority:  16 USC 470aa to 470mm

CFR Citation:  18 CFR 1312

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The proposed rule would amend the sections in the final 
uniform regulations to implement recent amendments to the 
Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979. Principally, these 
changes address public awareness programs, archaeological surveys and 
schedules, and guidance to Federal agencies on the disposition of human 
remains and directly associated objects found at archaeological sites. 
No direct costs to the public are anticipated, as the proposed rule 
would deal primarily with management and protection of archaeological 
resources by Federal agencies.

4536. PROTECTION OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES

Legal Authority:  16 USC 470aa to 470mm

CFR Citation:  18 CFR 1312

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The planned regulations will implement provisions of the 
Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 by providing protection 
of archaeological resources on public lands in TVA custody and control. 
TVA will seek to protect such resources through permits authorizing 
excavation or removal of resources, through civil penalties for 
unauthorized excavation or removal, through preservation of 
archaeological resource collections and data, and through assuring 
confidentiality of information about resources when disclosure would 
threaten the resources. The planned regulations will supplement 
existing uniform regulations by assigning specific responsibilities 
within TVA.
