These technical corrections will clarify intent and correct errors in the Oil and Gas NESHAP. These technical corrections will not change the level of health protection the Oil and Gas NESHAP provide or the basic control requirements of the Oil and Gas NESHAP. The Oil and Gas NESHAP require new and existing major sources to control emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) to the level reflecting application of the maximum achievable control technology (MACT). Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act, 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 rule without providing notice and an opportunity for public comment. We have determined that there is good cause for making these final rule corrections without prior proposal and opportunity for comment because the changes to the rule are minor technical corrections, are noncontroversial in nature, and do not substantively change the requirements of the Oil and Gas NESHAP. Thus, notice and public procedure are unnecessary. We find that this constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(5). 66 FR 34548 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2001-06-29/01-16438 01-16438 fr29jn01-9 RIN 2060-AG91 6560-50-U AD-FRL-6997-9 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2001-06-29/01-16438 https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-06-29/html/01-16438.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-06-29/pdf/01-16438.pdf Environmental Protection Administrative Practice and Procedure Air Pollution Control Hazardous Substances Intergovernmental Relations Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Storage 12 p. 34548 34559 66 FR 34548 Title 40 Part 63 40 CFR Part 63 RIN 2060-AG91 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From Oil and Natural Gas Production Facilities and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From Natural Gas Transmission and Storage Facilities; Federal Register Vol. 66, Issue RULE 01-16438 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AD-FRL-6997-9 6560-50-U 01-16438 Final rule; technical corrections.
