Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 4 / Thursday, January 7, 2021 / Rules and Regulations such as this final approval of Arkansass revised underground storage tank program under RCRA are exempted under Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, I certify that this action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq..
C. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian Tribal Governments Because this action approves and codifies pre-existing requirements under State law and does not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by State law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
2 U.S.C. 15311538. For the same reason, this action also does not significantly or uniquely affect the communities of tribal governments, as specified by Executive Order 13175 65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000.
D. Executive Order 13132: Federalism This action will not have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the National Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999, because it merely approves and codifies State requirements as part of the State RCRA
underground storage tank program without altering the relationship or the distribution of power and responsibilities established by RCRA.
E. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental Health and Safety Risks This action also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997, because it is not economically significant and it does not make decisions based on environmental health or safety risks.

G. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act Under RCRA section 9004b, EPA
grants a States application for approval as long as the State meets the criteria required by RCRA. It would thus be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it reviews a State approval application, to require the use of any particular voluntary consensus standard in place of another standard that otherwise satisfies the requirements of RCRA. Thus, the requirements of section 12d of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 15 U.S.C. 272 note do not apply.
H. Executive Order 12988: Civil Justice Reform As required by section 3 of Executive Order 12988 61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996, in issuing this rule, EPA has taken the necessary steps to eliminate drafting errors and ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, and provide a clear legal standard for affected conduct.
I. Executive Order 12630: Governmental Actions and Interference With Constitutionally Protected Property Rights EPA has complied with Executive Order 12630 53 FR 8859, March 15, 1988 by examining the takings implications of the rule in accordance with the Attorney Generals Supplemental Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings issued under the Executive order.
J. Paperwork Reduction Act This rule does not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq..
Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3b.
K. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations Executive Order 12898 59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994 establishes Federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision directs Federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income populations in the United States.
Because this rule approves pre-existing State rules which are at least equivalent

to, and no less stringent than existing Federal requirements, and imposes no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law, and there are no anticipated significant adverse human health or environmental effects, the rule is not subject to Executive Order 12898.
L. Congressional Review Act The Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. 801808, generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this document and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. This action is not a major rule as defined by 5 U.S.C. 8042. However, this action will be effective March 8, 2021 because it is a direct final rule.
