Agency: Office of the Secretary; Department of the Interior
Title: Administrative and Audit Requirements and Cost Principles for
Assistance Programs
CFR: 43 CFR Part 12
Summary: This action finalizes an interim rule the Department of the
Interior (Department) published in response to the issuance of
Executive Order 13043 of April 16, 1997, ``IncreasingSeat Belt Use in
the United States'' (Order). Under Section 1(c), after the date of the
Order, each Federal agency was required to seek to encourage
contractors, subcontractors, and grantees to adopt and enforce on-the-
job seat belt policies and programs for their employees when operating
company-owned, rented, or personally owned vehicles. Section 2 of the
Order directed all agencies of the executive branch to promulgate rules
and take other appropriate measures within their existing programs to
further the policies of the Order.
The Department published an interim final rule on December 27,
1999, because there had been no government-wide implementation of this
policy. This final rule applies to grants and cooperative agreements
awarded by the Department, and provides a regulatory basis for the
inclusion of a provision in grants and cooperative agreements awarded
by the Department.
In the event that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) chooses
to implement this requirement through the issuance of a government-wide
directive, the Department will revise this regulation, as appropriate.
Action: Final rule.

possible, and ensure competitive neutrality, while obtaining the
highest benefit; ensure that no class of carrier or consumer is unduly
favored or disfavored by our optimization efforts, and minimize the
incentives for carriers to build and carry excessively large
inventories of numbers.
Action: Final rule.
Date-Time: The rules in this document are effective July 17, 2000, except
for Sec. 52.15(f) which contains information collection requirements
that have not been approved by the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB). The Federal Communications Commission will publish a document in
the Federal Register announcing the effective date of Sec. 52.15(f).

Title: Radio Broadcasting Services; Estero, Everglades City, LaBelle,
and Key West, FL
CFR: 47 CFR Part 73
Summary: In response to a petition filed by Keith L. Reising a Notice
of Proposed Rule Making was issued proposing the allotment of Channel
224A at Everglades City, Florida. See 62 FR 22900, April 28, 1997. In
response to a counterproposal filed by InterMart Broadcasting West
Coast, Inc., this document substitutes Channel 223C3 for Channel 223A
at LaBelle, Florida, reallots Channel 223C3 to Estero, Florida, and
modifies the license for Station WWWD to specify Estero as its
community of license. The coordinates for Chanel 223C3 at Estero are
26-21-50 and 81-46-00. To accommodate the channel at Estero, we have
substituted Channel 224C1 for Channel 223C1 at Key West, Florida, and
modified the license for Station WEOW accordingly. The coordinates for
Channel 224C1 at Key West are 24-40-35 and 81-30-41. The proposal for
Everglades City is dismissed as it has been determined that a first
local service at Estero will serve a larger population than an
allotment at Everglades City. With this action, this proceeding is
terminated.
Action: Final rule.

Title: Interim Storage for Greater Than Class C Waste
CFR: 10 CFR Parts 72 and 150
Summary: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to grant
in part and deny in part a petition for rulemaking submitted by
Portland General Electric Company (PRM-72-2) by amending its
regulations dealing with greater than class C (GTCC) waste. The
proposed amendments would only apply to the interim storage of GTCC
waste generated or used by commercial nuclear power plants. The
proposed amendments would allow licensing for interim storage of GTCC
waste in a manner that is consistent with licensing the interim storage
of spent fuel and would maintain Federal jurisdiction for storage of
reactor-related GTCC waste. These proposed amendments would also
simplify and clarify the licensing process.
Action: Proposed rule.
Date-Time: The comment period expires August 30, 2000. Comments received
after this date will be considered if it is practical to do so, but the
Commission is able to assure consideration only for comments received
on or before this date.

Title: Airworthiness Directives; Raytheon Model BH.125, DH.125, and

CFR: 14 CFR Part 39
Summary: This document proposes the supersedure of an existing
airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Raytheon Model DH.125-
1A, -3A, and -400A series airplanes, that currently requires a one-time
inspection to detect scoring of the upper fuselage skin around the
periphery of the cockpit canopy blister interface, and repair, if
necessary. This action would expand the applicability of the existing
AD to include additional airplanes, and would require that the actions
be accomplished in accordance with revised service information for the
newly added airplanes. This AD is prompted by additional reports
indicating that scoring has been detected on the upper fuselage skin
around the periphery of the cockpit canopy blister interface. The
actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to detect and correct
scoring of the upper fuselage skin around the periphery of the cockpit
canopy blister interface, which could result in reduced structural
integrity of the fuselage, and consequent cabin depressurization.

Title: Proposed Revisions to the Clean Water Act Regulatory Definitions
of ``Fill Material'' and ``Discharge of Fill Material''
CFR: 40 CFR Part 232
Summary: On April 20, 2000, the Department of the Army (Army) and the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) jointly proposed to revise their
Clean Water Act (CWA) regulations defining the term ``fill material''
(65 FR 21292). Currently, the Army and EPA definitions of fill material
differ from each other. The existing Army definition defines ``fill
material'' as any material used for the primary purpose of replacing an
aquatic area with dry land or of changing the bottom elevation of a
water body, and specifically excludes from that definition any material
discharged into the water primarily to dispose of waste, as that
activity is regulated under section 402 of the CWA. The existing EPA
definition defines ``fill material'' as any pollutant which replaces a
portion of the waters of the U.S. with dry land or which changes the
bottom elevation of such waters, regardless of the purpose of the
discharge. The proposed rule would amend both the Army and EPA
definitions of ``fill material'' to provide a single definition of that
term, and thus ensure proper, consistent, and more effective regulation
under the CWA of materials that have the effect of replacing any
portion of a water of the U.S. with dry land or of changing the bottom
elevation of any portion of a water of the U.S.
The Army and EPA sought comment on the proposed rule by June 19,

State of Maryland's regulations for Nitrogen Oxides (NO<INF>X</INF>)
Budget Program (commonly referred to as the NO<INF>X</INF> Budget Rule)
as a revision to the State Implementation Plan (SIP). Prior to our
taking any final rulemaking, Maryland informed us that it was revising
the rule. On November 18, 1999, Maryland submitted a new SIP revision
request to EPA which consists of the revised version of its
NO<INF>X</INF> Budget Rule. Because the State of Maryland has now
submitted the revised version of its NO<INF>X</INF> Budget Rule as a
SIP revision, we are withdrawing our January 26, 1999 proposed rule on
the old version. EPA will initiate a new and separate rulemaking on the
Maryland's November 18, 1999 SIP revision submittal.

Title: Project XL Site-Specific Rulemaking for the IBM Semiconductor
Manufacturing Facility in Essex Junction, VT
CFR: 40 CFR Part 261
Summary: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is today proposing
this rule to implement a pilot project under the Project XL program
that would provide site-specific regulatory flexibility under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended, for the
International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) semiconductor
manufacturing facility in Essex Junction, Vermont. The principal
objective of this IBM Vermont XL project is to determine whether the
wastewater treatment sludge resulting from an innovative copper
metallization process (i.e., an electroplating operation) should be
designated a RCRA hazardous waste (F006), and thus be subject to RCRA
regulatory controls. If, as a result of this XL project, the Agency
determines that the wastewater treatment sludge (which does not
otherwise exhibit a hazardous characteristic) need not be subject to
RCRA hazardous waste regulations to be protective of human health and
the environment and removes such sludges from the hazardous waste
program, this would not only enhance the cost-effectiveness of the
innovative process by removing the costs of such regulatory controls,
but could also encourage the development and installation of this
innovative process (or similar ones) by other semiconductor
manufacturers. To achieve this, today's proposed rule, when finalized,
will provide an exemption of the copper metallization process from the
...
