ACTION: Notice . SUMMARY: On September 1, 2006, EPA issued a Notice of Receipt of Requests for Amendments by Registrants to Delete Uses in Certain Pesticide Registrations. Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations be amended to delete one or more uses. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any request in the **Federal Register** . The September 1 Notice inadvertently included a request to delete Guar (edible) Gums from EPA Registrations 47870-1, Propylene Oxide, 47870-2, Propylene Oxide Technical, and 47870-3, Propoxide 892. A request to delete Guar (edible) Gums from these three registrations was previously published on May 24, 2006. The terms of the May 24, 2006 **Federal Register** notice are controlling with respect to these three registrations. DATES: Because this technical correction removes three use deletion requests, the effective date for the remaining use deletions remains unchanged from the September 1 Notice. The remaining deletions are effective February 28, 2007, unless the Agency receives a written withdrawal request on or before February 28, 2007. The Agency will consider a withdrawal request postmarked no later than February 28, 2007. Users of these products who desire continued use on crops or sites being deleted should contact the applicable registrant on or before February 28, 2007.

E6-17101 Filed 10-17-06; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6560-50-S COUNCIL ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY The National Environmental Policy Act—Guidance on Categorical Exclusions AGENCY: Council on Environmental Quality. ACTION: Notice extending comment period. SUMMARY: By **Federal Register** notice of September 19, 2006 (71 FR 54816-54820), the Council on Environmental Quality

(CEQ)notified interested parties it was proposing guidance to Federal agencies for establishing and for using categorical exclusions in meeting their responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). CEQ invited comments on the proposed guidance, “Establishing, Revising, and Using Categorical Exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act.” Interested parties have requested that CEQ extend the public comment. The deadline for comments was October 27, 2006. By this notice, CEQ is extending the public comment period to December 1, 2006. Although the time for comments has been extended, CEQ requests that interested parties provide comments as soon as possible. DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before December 1, 2006. ADDRESSES: Electronic or facsimile comments on the proposed guidance are preferred because federal offices experience intermittent mail delays from security screening. Electronic comments can be sent to NEPA Modernization

(CE)at *hgreczmiel@ceq.eop.gov.* Written comments may be faxed to NEPA Modernization

(CE)at

(202)456-0753. Written comments may also be submitted to NEPA Modernization (CE), Attn: Associate Director for NEPA Oversight, 722 Jackson Place NW., Washington DC 20503. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Horst Greczmiel, 202-395-5750. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 19, 2006, CEQ published notice in the **Federal Register** requesting public comment on proposed guidance to Federal agencies for establishing and for using categorical exclusions in meeting their responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Council on Environmental Quality

(CEQ)established a National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA)Task Force and is now implementing recommendations designed to modernize the implementation of NEPA and make the NEPA process more effective and efficient. Additional information is available on the task force Web site at *http://ceq.eh.doe.gov/ntf.* The proposed guidance, “Establishing, Revising, and Using Categorical Exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act,” was developed to assist agencies with developing and using categorical exclusions for actions that do not have significant effects on the human environment and eliminate the need for unnecessary paperwork and effort under NEPA for categories of actions that normally do not warrant preparation of an environmental impact statement

(EIS)or environmental assessment (EA). Developing and using appropriate categorical exclusions promotes the cost-effective use of agency NEPA related resources. Interested parties have requested that CEQ extend the public comment period. The Council believes that by extending the comment period we will receive more in-depth comments on the proposed guidance published in the **Federal Register** notice of September 19, 2006 (67 FR 45510-45512) and also available at *http://www.NEPA.gov* in the Current Developments section. Therefore, the comment period is being extended. Public comments are requested by December 1, 2006. Dated: October 13, 2006. James L. Connaughton, Chairman, Council on Environmental Quality. [FR Doc.

Proposal to approve under OMB delegated authority the extension for three years, without revision, of the following report: *Report title:* Domestic Branch Notification *Agency form number:* FR 4001 *OMB control number:* 7100-0097 *Frequency:* On occasion *Reporters:* State member banks *Annual reporting hours:* 2,244 hours *Estimated average hours per response:* 30 minutes for expedited notifications; 1 hour for nonexpedited notifications *Number of respondents:* 382 expedited; 2,053 nonexpedited *General description of report:* This information collection is mandatory per Section 9(3) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. § 321) and is not given confidential treatment. *Abstract:* The Federal Reserve Act and Regulation H require a state member bank to seek prior approval of the Federal Reserve System before establishing or acquiring a domestic branch. Such requests for approval must be filed as notifications at the appropriate Reserve Bank for the state member bank. Due to the limited information that a state member bank generally has to provide for branch proposals, there is no formal reporting form for a domestic branch notification. A state member bank is required to notify the Federal Reserve by letter of its intent to establish one or more new branches, and provide with the letter evidence that public notice of the proposed branch(es) has been published by the state member bank in the appropriate newspaper(s). The Federal Reserve uses the information provided to fulfill its statutory obligation to review any public comment on proposed branches before acting on the proposals, and otherwise to supervise state member banks. Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, October 12, 2006. Jennifer J. Johnson, Secretary of the Board. [FR Doc.

Proposal to approve under OMB delegated authority the extension for three years, without revision, of the following information collections: *1. Report title:* Disclosure and Reporting Requirements of CRA-Related Agreements *Agency form number:* Reg G *OMB control number:* 7100-0299 *Frequency:* On occasion, annual *Reporters:* Insured depository institutions

(IDIs)and nongovernmental entities or persons (NGEPs) *Annual reporting hours:* 78 hours *Number of respondents:* 3 IDI; 6 NGEPs *Estimated average hours per response:* 1 hour (7 disclosure requirements); 4 hours (2 annual reports) *General description of report:* This information collection is required pursuant the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act), 12 U.S.C. 1831y(b) and (c). The FDI Act authorizes the Federal Reserve to require the disclosure and reporting requirements of Regulation G (12 CFR 207). In general, the Federal Reserve does not consider individual respondent commercial and financial information collected by the Federal Reserve pursuant to Regulation G as confidential. However, a respondent may request confidential treatment pursuant to section (b)(4) of Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C 552(b)(4). *Abstract:* Section 48 of the FDI Act imposes disclosure and reporting requirements on IDIs, their affiliates and NGEPs that enter into written agreements that meet certain criteria. The written agreements must

(1)be made in fulfillment of the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977

(CRA)and

(2)involve funds or other resources of an IDI or affiliate with an aggregate value of more than $10,000 in a year, or loans with an aggregate principal value of more than $50,000 in a year. Section 48 excludes from the disclosure and reporting requirements any agreement between an IDI or its affiliate and an NGEP if the NGEP has not contacted the IDI or its affiliate, or a banking agency, concerning the CRA performance of the IDI. Regulation G contains four disclosure requirements and two reporting requirements for IDIs and affiliates and three disclosure requirements and one reporting requirement for NGEPs. Please see the agency's OMB supporting statement for a summary of the disclosure and reporting requirements of Regulation G, *http://www.federalreserve.gov/boarddocs/reportforms/review.cfm.* The disclosure and reporting requirements in connection with Regulation G are mandatory and apply to state member banks and their subsidiaries; bank holding companies; affiliates of bank holding companies, other than banks, savings associations, and subsidiaries of banks and savings associations; and NGEPs that enter into covered agreements with any of the aforementioned companies. *2. Report title:* Disclosure Requirements in Connection With Regulation H (Consumer Protections in Sales of Insurance) *Agency form number:* Reg H-7 *OMB control number:* 7100-0298 *Frequency:* On occasion *Reporters:* State member banks *Annual reporting hours:* 14,159 hours *Number of respondents:* 899 *Estimated average hours per response:* 1.5 minutes *General description of report:* This information collection is mandatory pursuant the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1831x. Since the Federal Reserve does not collect any information, no issue of confidentiality normally arises. *Abstract:* Section 305 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act requires financial institutions to provide written and oral disclosures to consumers in connection with the initial sale of an insurance product or annuity concerning its uninsured nature and the existence of the investment risk, if appropriate, and the fact that insurance sales and credit may not be tied. Covered persons must make insurance disclosures before the completion of the initial sale of an insurance product or annuity to a consumer. The disclosure must be made orally and in writing to the consumer that:

(1)the insurance product or annuity is not a deposit or other obligation of, or guaranteed by, the financial institution or an affiliate of the financial institution;

(2)the insurance product or annuity is not insured by the FDIC or any other agency of the United States, the financial institution, or (if applicable) an affiliate of the financial institution; and

(3)in the case of an insurance product or annuity that involves an investment risk, there is investment risk associated with the product, including the possible loss of value. Covered persons must make a credit disclosure at the time a consumer applies for an extension of credit in connection with which an insurance product or annuity is solicited, offered, or sold. The disclosure must be made orally and in writing that the financial institution may not condition an extension of credit on either:

(1)the consumer's purchase of an insurance product or annuity from the financial institution or any of its affiliates; or

(2)the consumer's agreement not to obtain, or a prohibition on the consumer from obtaining, an insurance product or annuity from an unaffiliated entity.
