Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 166 / Tuesday, August 31, 2021 / Rules and Regulations exchange of ideas. We have developed this rule in a manner consistent with these requirements.
Regulatory Flexibility Act Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act as amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act SBREFA of 1996 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., whenever a Federal agency is required to publish a notice of rulemaking for any proposed or final rule, it must prepare and make available for public comment a regulatory flexibility analysis that describes the effect of the rule on small entities i.e., small businesses, small organizations, and small government jurisdictions.
However, no regulatory flexibility
analysis is required if the head of an agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Thus, for a regulatory flexibility analysis to be required, impacts must exceed a threshold for significant impact and a threshold for a substantial number of small entities. See 5 U.S.C. 605b.
SBREFA amended the Regulatory Flexibility Act to require Federal agencies to provide a statement of the factual basis for certifying that a rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
This rule opens or expands hunting and sport fishing on 88 NWRs and 1

NFH. As a result, visitor use for wildlife-dependent recreation on these stations will change. If the stations establishing new programs were a pure addition to the current supply of those activities, it would mean an estimated maximum increase of 40,839 user days one person per day participating in a recreational opportunity; see Table 2.
Because the participation trend is flat in these activities since 1991, this increase in supply will most likely be offset by other sites losing participants.
Therefore, this is likely to be a substitute site for the activity and not necessarily an increase in participation rates for the activity.
