14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2016-9593; Airspace Docket No. 16-ACE-12]

Amendment of Class E Airspace; Falls City, NE

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface at Brenner Field

Airport, Falls City, NE. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to
the decommissioning of the Brenner non-directional radio beacon (NDB),
and cancellation of the NDB approach. This action enhances the safety
and management of standard instrument approach procedures for
instrument flight rules (IFR) operations at the airport.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, December 7, 2017. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
Title 1, Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to the annual
revision of FAA Order 7400.11 and publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would modify Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface area at Brenner Field Airport, Falls City, NE, in
support of standard instrument approach procedures for IFR operations
at the airport.

History

    The FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR 16960, April 7,
2017) Docket No. FAA-2016-9593 a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
to modify Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at Brenner Field Airport, Falls City, NE. Interested parties
were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting
written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,
2016, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,
2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 modifies Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface within a 6.5-mile radius (increased from 6.4 miles) of
Brenner Field and cancels the NDB approach due to the decommissioning
of the Brenner NDB. This action enhances the safety and management of
the standard instrument approach procedures for IFR operations at the
airport.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5.a. This airspace action is not expected
to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Food and Drug Administration

[Docket No. FDA-2013-N-0545]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Infant Formula Requirements

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on our proposed collection of certain
information. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the PRA),
Federal Agencies are required to publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each
proposed extension of an existing collection of information, and to
allow 60 days for public comment in response to the notice. This notice
invites comments on the information collection provisions of our infant
formula regulations, including infant formula labeling, quality control
procedures, notification requirements, and recordkeeping.

DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments on the collection
of information by July 15, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Submit electronic comments on the collection of information
to http://www.regulations.gov. Submit written comments on the
collection of information to the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-
305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061,
Rockville, MD 20852. All comments should be identified with the docket
number found in brackets in the heading of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Domini Bean, Office of Information
Management, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr., PI50-400T,
Rockville, MD 20850<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, we are publishing notice of the proposed collection
of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, we invite
comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of our functions,
including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the
accuracy of our estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions
used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on respondents, including through the use of
automated collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.

Infant Formula Requirements--21 CFR Parts 106 and 107 (OMB Control
Number 0910-0256)--Extension

    Statutory requirements for infant formula under the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) are intended to protect the
health of infants and include a number of reporting and recordkeeping
requirements. Among other things, section 412 of the FD&C Act (21
U.S.C. 350a) requires manufacturers of infant formula to establish and
adhere to quality control procedures, notify us when a batch of infant
formula that has left the manufacturers' control may be adulterated or
misbranded, and keep records of distribution. We have issued
regulations to implement the FD&C Act's requirements for infant formula
in parts 106 and 107. We also regulate the labeling of infant formula
under the authority of section 403 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 343).
Under our labeling regulations for infant formula in part 107, the
label of an infant formula must include nutrient information and
directions for use. The purpose of these labeling requirements is to
ensure that consumers have the information they need to prepare and use
infant formula appropriately.
    In a notice of proposed rulemaking published in the Federal
Register of July 9, 1996 (61 FR 36154), we proposed changes in our
infant formula regulations, including some of those listed in tables 1,
2, and 3 of this document. The document included revised burden
estimates for the proposed changes and solicited public comment. In the
Federal Register of April 28, 2003 (68 FR 22341) (the 2003 reopening),
FDA reopened the comment period for the proposed rule. Interested
persons were originally given until June 27, 2003, to comment on these
issues and the 1996 proposal. However, in response to a request, the
comment period was extended to August 26, 2003 (68 FR 38247, June 27,
2003). FDA again reopened the comment period on August 1, 2006 (71 FR
43392) (the 2006 reopening) for 45 days to accept comment on a limited
set of issues. In a notice of proposed rulemaking published in the
Federal Register of April 16, 2013 (78 FR 22442), we proposed to amend
our regulations on nutrient specifications and labeling for infant
formula to add the mineral selenium to the list of required nutrients
and to establish minimum and maximum levels of selenium in infant
formula. The document also included revised burden estimates for the
proposed changes and solicited public comment. In the interim, FDA is
seeking an extension of OMB approval for the current regulations so
that we can continue to collect information while the proposals are
pending.
    We estimate the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

    In compiling these estimates, we consulted our records of the
number of infant formula submissions received in the past. All infant
formula submissions may be provided to us in electronic format. The
hours per response reporting estimates are based on our experience with
similar programs and information received from industry.
    We estimate that we will receive 13 reports from 5 manufacturers
annually under section 412(d) of the FD&C Act, for a total annual
response of 65 reports. Each report is estimated to take 10 hours per
response for a total of 650 hours. We also estimate that we will
receive one notification under Sec.  106.120(b). The notification is
expected to take 4 hours per response, for a total of 4 hours.
    For exempt infant formula, we estimate that we will receive two
reports from three manufacturers annually under Sec. Sec.  107.50(b)(3)
and (b)(4), for a total annual response of six reports. Each report is
estimated to take 4 hours per response for a total of 24 hours. We also
estimate that we will receive one notification annually under Sec.
107.50(e)(2) and that the notification will take 4 hours to prepare.
    We estimate that 5 firms will expend approximately 20,000 hours per
year to fully satisfy the recordkeeping requirements in Sec.  106.100
and that 3 firms will expend approximately 9,000 hours per year to
fully satisfy the recordkeeping requirements in Sec.  107.50(c)(3).
    We estimate compliance with our labeling requirements in Sec. Sec.
107.10(a) and 107.20 requires 520 hours annually by 5 manufacturers.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: FERC-725G, Mandatory Reliability
Standards for the Bulk-Power System: PRC Reliability Standards.
    OMB Control No.: 1902-0252.
    Type of Request: Revisions to FERC-725G information collection
requirements, as discussed in Docket No. RD20-7.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Note that Docket No. RD20-4 is pending and proposes changes
to FERC-725G. Those proposed changes in Docket No. RD20-4 are
separate and not addressed in this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Abstract: The proposed Reliability Standard PRC-024-3 improves upon
Reliability Standard PRC-024-2 by clarifying the voltage and frequency
protection settings requirements, so that generating resources
including inverter-based resources (IBR) continue to

support grid stability during defined system voltage and frequency
excursions. The proposed Reliability Standard PRC-024-3 includes
modifications to the applicability including two new facilities:
generator step-up transformer (GSU)/main power transformer (MPT for
IBR) and unit auxiliary transformer (UAT).
    On August 8, 2005, Congress enacted into law the Electricity
Modernization Act of 2005, which is Title XII, Subtitle A, of the
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005).\2\ EPAct 2005 added a new
section 215 to the FPA, which required a Commission-certified Electric
Reliability Organization (ERO) to develop mandatory and enforceable
Reliability Standards, which are subject to Commission review and
approval. Once approved, the Reliability Standard may be enforced by
the ERO subject to Commission oversight, or the Commission can
independently enforce Reliability Standards.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Energy Policy Act of 2005, Public Law 109-58, Title XII,
Subtitle A, 119 Stat. 594, 941 (codified at 16 U.S.C. 824o).
    \3\ 16 U.S.C. 824o(e)(3).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On February 3, 2006, the Commission issued Order No. 672,
implementing section 215 of the FPA.\4\ Pursuant to Order No. 672, the
Commission certified one organization, North American Electric
Reliability Corporation (NERC), as the ERO.\5\ The Reliability
Standards developed by the ERO and approved by the Commission apply to
users, owners and operators of the Bulk-Power System as set forth in
each Reliability Standard.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On March 20, 2020, North American Electric Reliability Corporation
(NERC) submitted for approval proposed Reliability Standard PRC-024-3
(Frequency and Voltage Protection Settings for Generating Resources.),
as well as the proposed implementation plan, Violation Risk Factors,
and Violation Severity Levels. NERC asserts that PRC-024-3 improves
upon currently effective Reliability Standard PRC-024-2 by clarifying
the voltage and frequency protection settings requirements so that
generating resources including inverter-based resources (IBR) continue
to support grid stability during defined system voltage and frequency
excursions.
    NERC's filed petition was noticed on March 26, 2020, with
interventions, comments and protests due on or before April 20, 2020.
This due date was extended to May 1, 2020, due to the COVID-19
pandemic. One motion to intervene and comment was filed by California
Independent System Operator supporting approval of proposed Reliability
Standard PRC-024-3 under Docket No. RD20-7.
    Reliability Standard PRC-024-3 was approved by FERC on 7/9/2020 in
a Delegated Letter Order (DLO).\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The DLO is posted in eLibrary at https://elibrary.ferc.gov/idmws/common/OpenNat.asp?fileID=15579259.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Type of Respondent: Generator Owner.
    Estimate of Annual Burden: \7\ Our estimate of the number of
respondents affected is based on the NERC Compliance Registry as of
June 1, 2020.\8\ According to the Compliance Registry, NERC has
registered 975 generator owners within the United States.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a federal agency. See 5
CFR 1320 for additional information on the definition of information
collection burden.
    \8\ NERC Compliance Registry (June 1, 2020), available at
https://www.nerc.com/pa/comp/Registration%20and%20Certification%20DL/NERC_Compliance_Registry_Matrix_Excel.xlsx.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The burden estimates reflect the standards and the number of
affected entities.
    Estimates for the additional average annual burden and cost \9\ due
to Docket No. RD20-7-000 follow.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ The hourly cost estimates are based on wage data from the
Bureau of Labor Statistics for May 2019 (at https://www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm) and benefits data for Dec. 2019 (issued March
2020, at https://www.bls.gov/news.release/ecec.nr0.htm). The hourly
costs (for wages and benefits) are for: Electrical Engineer
(Occupation code 17-2071), $70.91; Manager (Occupation code 11-
0000), $97.15; and Information and Record Clerk (Occupation code 43-
4199), $41.03.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite interested people to take part in this rulemaking by
sending written comments, data, or views. The most helpful comments
reference a specific portion of the special conditions, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data.
    We will consider all comments we receive on or before the closing
date for comments. We may change these special conditions based on the
comments we receive.

Background

    On May 30, 2012, Bombardier applied for an amendment to type
certificate no. T00003NY to include the new Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-
700-2A13 airplanes. These airplanes are derivatives of the Model BD-700
series of airplanes currently approved under type certificate no.
T00003NY, and are marketed as the Bombardier Global 7000 (Model BD-700-
2A12) and Global 8000 (Model BD-700-2A13). These airplanes are ultra-
long-range, executive-interior business jets.

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR) 21.101, Bombardier must show that the Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-
700-2A13 airplanes meet the applicable provisions of the regulations
listed in type certificate no. T00003NY, or the applicable regulations
in effect on the date of application for the change, except for earlier
amendments as agreed upon by the FAA.
    If the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness
regulations (i.e., 14 CFR part 25) do not contain adequate or
appropriate safety standards for the BD-700-2A12 and BD-700-2A13
airplanes because of a novel or unusual design feature, special
conditions are prescribed under the provisions of Sec.  21.16.
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the model for which
they are issued. Should the type certificate for that model be amended
later to include any other model that incorporates the same novel or
unusual design feature, or should any other model already included on
the same type certificate be modified to incorporate the same novel or
unusual design feature, these special conditions would also apply to
the other model under Sec.  21.101.
    In addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special
conditions, the Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-700-2A13 airplanes must comply
with the fuel-vent and exhaust-emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34,
and the noise certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36.
    The FAA issues special conditions, as defined in 14 CFR 11.19, in
accordance with Sec.  11.38, and they become part of the type-
certification basis under Sec.  21.101.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The Bombardier Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-700-2A13 airplanes will
have a novel or unusual design feature associated with flightdeck
design, which incorporates a hydrophobic windshield coating to provide
adequate pilot compartment view in the presence of precipitation. Sole
reliance on such a coating, without windshield wipers, constitutes a
novel or unusual design feature for which the applicable airworthiness
regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards.

Discussion

    14 CFR 25.773(b)(1) requires a means to maintain a sufficiently
clear portion of the windshield for both pilots to have an extensive
view along the flight path during precipitation conditions. The
regulations require this means to maintain such an area during
precipitation in heavy rain at speeds up to 1.5 VSR1.
Hydrophobic windshield coatings may depend to some degree on airflow to
maintain a clear vision area. The heavy rain and high speed conditions
specified in the current rule do not necessarily represent the limiting
condition for this new technology. For example, airflow over the
windshield, which may be necessary to remove moisture from the
windshield, may not be adequate to maintain a sufficiently clear area
of the windshield in low-speed flight or during surface operations.
Alternatively, airflow over the windshield may be disturbed during such
critical times as the approach to land, where the airplane is at a
higher-than-normal pitch attitude. In these cases, areas of airflow
disturbance or separation on the windshield could cause a failure to
maintain a clear vision area on the windshield.
    These special conditions contain the additional safety standards
that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of
safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness
standards.

Applicability

    As discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the
Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-700-2A13 airplanes. Should Bombardier apply at
a later date for a change to the type certificate to include another
model incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, these
special conditions would apply to the other model as well.

Conclusion

    This action affects only certain novel or unusual design features
on two

model series of airplanes. It is not a rule of general applicability.
    The substance of these special conditions has been subjected to the
notice and comment period in several prior instances and has been
derived without substantive change from those previously issued. It is
unlikely that prior public comment would result in a significant change
from the substance contained herein. Therefore, the FAA has determined
that prior public notice and comment are unnecessary, and good cause
exists for adopting these special conditions upon publication in the
Federal Register. The FAA is requesting comments to allow interested
persons to submit views that may not have been submitted in response to
the prior opportunities for comment described above.

The Special Conditions

0
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the following special conditions are issued as part of
the type certification basis for Bombardier Model BD-700-2A12 and BD-
700-2A13 airplanes.

the airplane must have a means to maintain a clear portion of the
windshield, during precipitation conditions, such that both pilots to
have a sufficiently extensive view along the ground or flight path in
taxi and flight. This means must be designed to function, without
continuous attention on the part of the crew, in conditions from light
misting precipitation to heavy rain, at speeds from fully stopped in
still air to 1.5 VSR1 with lift and drag devices retracted,
and in icing conditions specified in Sec.  25.1419 if certification for
flight in icing conditions is requested.
    2. The precipitation removal system must comply with Sec.  25.773.
    3. Instructions to maintain the precipitation-removal system must
comply with Sec.  25.1529.
    4. The materials used in the precipitation removal system must
comply with Sec.  25.603.

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Texas; Public
Participation for Air Quality Permit Applications

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve two provisions submitted by the State of Texas as revisions to
the Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) on July 2, 2010, specific to
the applicability of the public notice requirements to applications for
Plant-Wide Applicability (PAL) permits and standard permits for
concrete batch plants without enhanced controls. Today's proposal and
the accompanying direct final action will complete the rulemaking
process started in our December 13, 2012, proposal and approve the
public notice provisions into the Texas SIP. The EPA is proposing to
convert the public notice applicability provisions for Texas Flexible
Permits from a final conditional approval to a full approval. The EPA
is proposing approval of these revisions

pursuant to section 110 and parts C and D of the Federal Clean Air Act.

DATES: Written comments should be received on or before April 29, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Ms. Adina Wiley, Air Permits
Section (6PD-R), Environmental Protection Agency, 1445 Ross Avenue,
Suite 1200, Dallas, Texas 75202-2733. Comments may also be submitted
electronically or through hand delivery/courier by following the
detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES section of the direct final rule
located in the rules section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Adina Wiley,<PHONE_NUMBER>,
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the final rules section of this Federal
Register, the EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct
final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as
noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A
detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this
action no further activity is contemplated. If the EPA receives
relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and
those public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final
rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second
comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action
should do so at this time.
    For additional information, see the direct final rule which is
located in the rules section of this Federal Register.
