Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 55 / Wednesday, March 24, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
not apply and evaluation under the Department of Transportations Regulatory Policies and Procedures is not required.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Determination I certify this regulation will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
The St. Lawrence Seaway Tariff of Tolls primarily relate to commercial users of the Seaway, the vast majority of whom are foreign vessel operators. Therefore, any resulting costs will be borne mostly by foreign vessels.
Environmental Impact This regulation does not require an environmental impact statement under the National Environmental Policy Act 49 U.S.C. 4321, et reg. because it is not a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.

Federalism The Corporation has analyzed this rule under the principles and criteria in Executive Order 13132, dated August 4, 1999, and has determined that this rule does not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant a Federalism Assessment.
Unfunded Mandates The Corporation has analyzed this rule under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 Pub. L.
1044, 109 Stat. 48 and determined that it does not impose unfunded mandates on State, local, and tribal governments and the private sector requiring a written statement of economic and regulatory alternatives.
Paperwork Reduction Act This regulation has been analyzed under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and does not contain new or modified information collection requirements subject to the Office of Management and Budget review.
