SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of September 16, 
1998 (63 FR 49472) (FRL-6025-1), EPA, issued a final rule establishing 
time-limited tolerances for combined residues of myclobutanil in or on 
artichokes, asparagus, and peppers (bell and non-bell). The entry for 
peppers (bell and non-bell) should have been a revision of the 
tolerance level instead of an addition. This document is being issued 
to correct the amendatory language.

I. Regulatory Assessment Requirements

    This final rule does not impose any new requirements. It only 
implements a technical correction to the Code of Federal Regulations 
(CFR). As such, this action does not require review by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) under Executive Order 12866, entitled 
Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), the 
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or Executive 
Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from Environmental Health 
Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does 
not impose any enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or 
impose any significant or unique impact on small governments as 
described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 
104-4). Nor does it require prior consultation with State, local, and 
tribal government officials as specified by Executive Order 12875, 
entitled Enhancing the Intergovernmental Partnership (58 FR 58093, 
October 28, 1993) and Executive Order 13084, entitled Consultation and 
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (63 FR 27655, May 19, 
1998), or special consideration of environmental justice related issues 
under Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address 
Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income 
Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). This action does not 
involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration 
of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the 
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Pub. 
L. 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). In addition, since this 
action is not subject to notice-and-comment requirements under the 
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) or any other statute, it is not 
subject to the regulatory flexibility provisions of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.).

II. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 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 rule 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 of this rule in the Federal Register. This is a 
technical correction to the Federal Register and is not a ``major 
rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

    2. Section 180.443 is amended in paragraph (b), in the table, by

level for ``peppers (bell and non-bell)'' to read as follows.
