Supplementary Information

Amendment of 39 CFR 775.6(b)(15) is necessary to update a reference to the statutory provision dealing with the administrative procedures for the closing or consolidation of post offices. Formerly, that provision was codified at 39 U.S.C. 404(b), but under section 1010(e) of Public Law 109-435, 120 Stat. 3261, was redesignated as 39 U.S.C. 404(d). This rule updates the reference in § 775.6. List of Subjects in 39 CFR Part 775 Environmental impact statements. For the reasons set forth above, the Postal Service amends 39 CFR Part 775 as follows: PART 775—NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT PROCEDURES 1. The authority citation for 39 CFR Part 775 continues to read as follows: Authority: 39 U.S.C. 401; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.; 40 CFR 1500.4. § 775.6 [Amended] 2. In § 775.6(b)(15), remove “404(b)” and insert “404(d)” in its place. Stanley F. Mires, Chief Counsel, Legislative. [FR Doc. 2011-21698 Filed 8-24-11; 8:45 am]
