SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On October 13, 2022, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS)
published the interim final rule Implementation of Additional Export
Controls: Certain Advanced Computing and Semiconductor Manufacturing
Items; Supercomputer and Semiconductor End Use; Entity List
Modifications (87 FR 62186), hereinafter the October 7 advanced
computing and semiconductor manufacturing equipment rule.
    In the rule, BIS amended the Export Administration Regulations
(EAR) to implement necessary controls on advanced computing integrated
circuits (ICs), computer commodities that contain such ICs, and certain
semiconductor manufacturing items. In addition, BIS expanded controls
on transactions involving items for supercomputer and semiconductor
manufacturing end uses. For example, the rule expanded the scope of
foreign-produced items subject to license requirements for twenty-eight
existing entities on the Entity List that are located in China. BIS
also informed the public that specific activities of ``U.S. persons''
that `support' the ``development'' or ``production'' of certain ICs in
the PRC require a license. Lastly, to minimize the short-term impact on
the semiconductor supply chain from the rule, BIS established a
Temporary General License to permit specific, limited manufacturing
activities in China related to items destined for use outside China and
identified a model certificate that may be used in compliance programs
to assist, along with other measures, in conducting due diligence. The
October 7 advanced computing and semiconductor manufacturing equipment
rule also solicits public comments on the changes included in that
rule.

Extension of Comment Period Deadline

    The October 7 advanced computing and semiconductor manufacturing
equipment rule included a comment period deadline of December 12, 2022.
The Department of Commerce has determined at this time that it is
warranted to extend the comment period through January 31, 2023 to
allow for commenters to have additional time to review the interim
final rule and to benefit from the significant amount of public
outreach that BIS is conducting on the rule in preparing their
comments. This document specifies that comments may be submitted at any
time but must be received by January 31, 2023, to be considered.

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration.

[Docket No. CP19-1-000]

Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application

    Take notice that on October 3, 2018, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68124-1000, filed
an application pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA)
and the Commission's regulations seeking authorization to abandon by
sale to DKM Enterprises, LLC (DKM) approximately 146.6 miles of 24-
inch-diameter pipeline and other appurtenant facilities on Northern's
Palmyra to Ogden A-line system located in Otoe and Cass Counties,
Nebraska, and Mills, Pottawattamie, Cass, Audubon, Guthrie, Greene and
Boone Counties, Iowa. DKM intends on reclaiming most of the facilities
for salvage, all as more fully described in the application which is on
file with the Commission and open to public inspection. The filing may
also be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary''
link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the
docket number field to access the document. For assistance, contact
FERC at [email protected] or call toll-free,<PHONE_NUMBER> or
TTY,<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to
Michael T. Loeffler, Senior Director, Certificates and External
Affairs, Northern Natural Gas Company, 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha,
Nebraska, 68124, by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, by fax at (402) 398-
7190, or by email at [email protected].
    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's
public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review will serve to notify federal and
state agencies of the timing for the completion of all necessary
reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal authorizations
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 3 copies of filings made in the proceeding with the Commission
and must provide a copy to the applicant and to every other party. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list and will be
notified of any meetings associated with the Commission's environmental
review process. Environmental commentors will not be required to serve
copies of filed documents on all other parties. However, the non-party
commentors will not receive copies of all documents filed by other
parties or issued by the Commission and will not have the right to seek
court review of the Commission's final order.
    As of the February 27, 2018 date of the Commission's order in
Docket No. CP16-4-001, the Commission will apply its revised practice
concerning out-of-time motions to intervene in any new Natural Gas Act
section 3 or section 7 proceeding.\1\ Persons desiring to become a
party to a certificate proceeding are to intervene in a timely manner.
If seeking to intervene out-of-time, the movant is required to ``show
good cause why the time limitation should be waived,'' and should
provide

justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d)(1) (18
CFR 385.214(d)(1)) of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.

    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests, and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should
submit an original and 3 copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, Washington,

the Securities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Beginning on September 11,
2008, Following the Suspension of That Rule Pursuant to SR-NYSE-2008-81

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to resume the operation of NYSE Rule 123D(3)
with respect to trading in the securities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
beginning on September 11, 2008, following the suspension of that rule
pursuant to SR-NYSE-2008-81.\4\

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58488 (September 8,

filing, see SR-NYSE-2008-81.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, NYSE included statements
concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. NYSE has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Regulation NMS, adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``SEC'') in April 2005,\5\ provides that each trading center intending
to qualify for trade-through protection under Regulation NMS Rule 611
\6\ is required to have a Regulation NMS-compliant trading system fully
operational by March 5, 2007 (the ``Trading Phase Date'').\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51808 (June 9,
2005), 17 CFR Parts 200, 201, 230, 240, 242, 249 and 270.
    \6\ See 17 CFR 242.611.
    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 55160 (January 24,
2007), 72 FR 4202 (January 30, 2007) (S7-10-04).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For stocks priced below $1.00 per share, Regulation NMS Rule 612
\8\ permits markets to accept bids, offers, orders and indications of
interest in increments smaller than $0.01, but not less than $0.0001,
and to quote and trade such stocks in sub-pennies. Markets may choose
not to accept such

bids, offers, orders or indications of interest and the NYSE has done
so, maintaining a minimum trading and quoting variation of $0.01 for
all securities trading below $100,000. See NYSE Rule 62.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See 17 CFR 242.612. Rule 612 originally was to become
effective on August 29, 2005, but the date was later extended to
January 29, 2006. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 52196
(Aug. 2, 2005), 70 FR 45529 (Aug. 8, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The SEC's interpretation of Rule 612 requires a market that routes
an order to another market in compliance with Rule 611 and receives a
sub-penny execution, to accept the sub-penny execution, report that
execution to the customer, and compare, clear and settle that trade.
The SEC, however, provided a limited exemption to Rule 611's
proscription against trade-throughs to protected quotes that include a
sub-penny component to such quotes that are better-priced by a minimum
of $0.01.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ Order Granting National Securities Exchanges a Limited
Exemption from Rule 612 of Regulation NMS under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 to Permit Acceptance by Exchanges of Certain
Sub-Penny Orders. See Securities and Exchange Commission Release No.
54714 (November 6, 2006).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In March 2007, the Exchange amended Rule 123D to provide for a
``Sub-penny trading'' condition because the Exchange's trading systems
did not then accommodate sub-penny executions on orders routed to
better-priced protected quotations, nor could it recognize a quote
disseminated by another market center if such quote had a sub-penny
component and, therefore, could have inadvertently traded through
better protected quotations. The amended rule automatically halts
trading on the Exchange in a security whose price was about to fall
below $1.00, without delisting the security, so that the security could
continue to trade on other markets that deal in bids, offers, orders or
indications of interest in sub-penny prices, until the price of the
security had recovered sufficiently to permit the Exchange to resume
trading in minimum increments of no less than one penny or the issuer
is delisted for failing to correct the price condition within the time
provided under NYSE rules.\10\ A subsequent amendment established that
any orders received by the NYSE in a security subject to a ``Sub-penny
trading'' condition would be routed to NYSE Arca, Inc. and handled in
accordance with the rules governing that market.\11\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-
55398; File No. SR-NYSE-2007-25 (Mar. 5, 2007).
    \11\ See Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-
55537; File No. SR-NYSE-2007-30 (Mar. 27, 2007).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suspension of NYSE Rule 123D(3)
    On September 7, 2008, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson
announced that the federal government would force Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac into a conservatorship that will result in the companies
issuing warrants to the federal government representing approximately
80% ownership of the entities. Details of the plan are available at the
Department of the Treasury's Web site, at http://www.treas.gov/press/
releases/reports/pspa_factsheet_090708%20hp1128.pdf.
    The NYSE was concerned that the Treasury Department's action could
cause securities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to trade below $1.00,
and that as a result, trading on the NYSE in such securities would have
been halted automatically under the NYSE Rule 123D(3), which governs
Sub-penny trading halts. The NYSE was further concerned that, given the
scope of the government's action, it would have been deleterious to the
overall depth and quality of the market if the NYSE halted NYSE trading
in those issues. As a result, the NYSE filed with the SEC for immediate
effectiveness a proposal to suspend the operation of NYSE Rule 123D
with respect to the securities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. That rule
filing proposed suspending the rule through the end of the primary
trading session on September 15, 2008.
    Notwithstanding that proposal, the NYSE now believes that the
impact of the Treasury Department's action has been fully absorbed by
the market, and that as a result, the need to continue trading on the
NYSE below $1.00 is significantly less, while the potential for NYSE
trades below $1.00 to cause the Exchange to violate its obligations
under Reg NMS remains constant. As a result, commencing on September
11, 2008, the NYSE is proposing to lift the suspension of its Rule
123D(3) and to halt trading in securities of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
any time they trade, or would open below $1.05 per share, as prescribed
by the rule.
2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) \12\ of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act''), in general, and
furthers the objectives of Section 6(b)(5) \13\ in particular in that
it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in facilitating
transactions in securities, and to remove impediments to and perfect
the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In particular, the NYSE notes that the proposed rule change
reinstates a rule whose initial purpose was to ensure that the NYSE did
not inadvertently violate Reg NMS; the rule was only suspended in order
to respond to a highly unusual market situation. The NYSE believes that
reinstating the rule before September 15 is warranted since the need
underlying the suspension request appears to have dissipated, and
therefore it is appropriate to resume applying NYSE Rule 123D(3) as a
prophylactic.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The Exchange has designated the proposed rule change as one that:
(1) Does not significantly affect the protection of investors or the
public interest; (2) does not impose any significant burden on
competition; and (3) does not become operative for 30 days from the
date of filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate if
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.
Therefore, the foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \14\ and subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule
19b-4 thereunder.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \15\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under 19b-4(f)(6) normally does not
become operative until 30 days after the date of filing.\16\ However,
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) \17\ permits the Commission to designate a
shorter time if such action is consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest. The Exchange has requested that the
Commission waive the 30-day operative delay so that the

proposal may become operative, and the suspended rule may be
reinstated, immediately upon filing. The Exchange believes that, while
a suspension of Rule 123D(3) for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities
was warranted by the Treasury Department's actions, the immediate
benefits of suspending that rule have diminished, and that therefore it
is consistent with the Exchange Act that the rule be reinstated as
expeditiously as possible, since the reinstated rule would prevent the
Exchange from executing transactions in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
securities at prices below $1.00 that may violate Regulation NMS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ Id. In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) requires a self-
regulatory organization to give the Commission written notice of its
intent to file the proposed rule change at least five business days
prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule change, or such
shorter time as designated by the Commission. NYSE has satisfied
this requirement.
    \17\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.
The Commission therefore grants the Exchange's request and designates
the proposal to be operative upon filing.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay of
this proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's
impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule change if it
appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate
in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

Comment Info: =================

General Comment:Dear FDA,

I am an individual consumer here to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.

The Proposed Rule raises a number of significant issues and questions that are important and relevant to me, as a consumer of products that are proposed for regulation under the Proposed Rule. The Proposed Rule asks about a hundred different questions I might want to respond to. I want to provide my thoughts and comments on many of these issues, but my time to devote to researching and providing thoughtful comments on these important questions is limited. I have already spent many hours researching and dissecting these issues, but they take time. I know that the FDA took many years to even come up with the Proposed Rule, so I do not think it is at all unreasonable to allow the public a mere six months to comment on it. This is our only opportunity, as consumers, to provide our feedback.

I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. These products have improved my life in many ways. I have been able to control the amount of nicotine more accurately and the minor effect on my breathing has helped me start doing cardio again. I also turned my dad on to a ecig and now I no longer have to live in fear that he will fall asleep and burn the house down. Also using zero nicotine I have gotten my mom off cigarettes and now she has vapor to fall upon with if she gets an urge. I wish to provide you with my personal story, as well as science- and evidence-based responses to your questions so that you can take my comment into account. I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time frame and that the FDA has exercised this authority on numerous occasions in the past. I would therefore ask that you do so here, so that all stakeholders have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.

I appreciate your consideration of my request and am happy to discuss this issue with you further.

[Docket No. FAA-2014-0540; Directorate Identifier 2014-NE-10-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Lycoming Engines Reciprocating Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain serial number Lycoming Engines reciprocating engines. This
proposed AD was prompted by events of propeller governor shaft set
screws coming loose due to improper installation, which could result in
engine oil loss, damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane. This
proposed AD would require application of Loctite 290, or equivalent, to
the threads of the propeller governor shaft set screw at each
installation of the set screw in addition to the peening of crankcase
hole threads. We are proposing this AD to prevent the propeller
governor shaft set screw from coming loose, causing damage to the
engine, and damage to the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 10,
2014.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2014-0540;
Directorate Identifier 2014-NE-10-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We issued Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) NE-08-
32 on July 3, 2008. The SAIB recommended actions to correct the
condition of a propeller governor shaft set screw coming loose. This
proposed AD was prompted by additional events of propeller governor
shaft set screws coming loose due to improper installation, which could
result in the shaft penetrating the plug at the front of the crankcase
and causing a loss of engine oil and a loss of engine power. In some
reported events, engine oil was deposited on the windshield,
restricting pilot visibility. The loose set screw could also enter the
rotating system and cause damage to the camshaft and valve lifters.
Safety is further diminished if failure occurs during aerobatic
maneuvers, especially at low altitudes, due to reduction in pilot
reaction time. These conditions, if not corrected, could result in
damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane. This proposed AD
would require application of Loctite 290, or equivalent, to the threads
of the propeller governor shaft set screw at each installation of the
set screw in addition to the peening of crankcase hole threads. We are
proposing this AD to prevent the propeller governor shaft set screw
from coming loose, causing damage to the engine, and damage to the
airplane.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Lycoming Engines Service Instruction (SI) No. 1343B,
dated June 15, 2007. The SI describes procedures for securing the
propeller governor shaft set screw.

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of these same type
designs.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require application of Loctite 290, or
equivalent, to the threads of the propeller governor shaft set screw at
each installation of the set screw in addition to the peening of
crankcase hole threads.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the Service Information

    Lycoming Engines SI No. 1343B, dated June 15, 2007, specifies the
use of Loctite 290, in addition to peening of the crankcase hole
threads, to secure the set screw in place. This AD allows the use of
Loctite 290, or equivalent thread-locking, anaerobic, single-component
sealing compound that meets military specification Mil-S-46163A, Type
III, Grade R. The SI also requires these actions at next overhaul,
whereas this AD requires these actions at any installation of the
propeller governor shaft set screw.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect about 2,330 engines
installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it will
take about 0.1 hours per engine to comply with this AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per hour. Prorated parts life will cost about $1 per
engine. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $22,135.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. 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.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska to the extent
that it justifies making a regulatory distinction, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative,

on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Discussion

    We are adopting a new AD for Sikorsky Model S-92A helicopters. This
AD is prompted by Sikorsky's updated fatigue analysis of the nose and
main landing gear as part of a supplier transition project. The updated
fatigue

analysis revealed that certain components--main landing gear (MLG)
wheel axle part number (P/N) 2392-2334-001, MLG and nose landing gear
(NLG) threaded hinge pin P/N 2392-2311-003, NLG cylinder P/N 2392-4006-
005, NLG hinge pin P/N 2392-4312-003, and landing gear actuator rod end
P/N 2392-0876-901--require a reduced service life. Sikorsky updated the
airworthiness limitations schedule accordingly and developed a
recurring visual and ultrasonic inspection of NLG airframe fitting
assembly P/N 92209-01101-041 once it has accumulated 31,600 landing
cycles.
    Accordingly, this AD requires inspecting and reducing the life
limits of these landing gear components. The actions specified by this
AD are intended to detect and prevent cracks or failure of any landing
gear component, which could result in damage and loss of control of the
helicopter.

FAA's Determination

    We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of this same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Ultrasonic Inspection Technique No. UT 5077, Revision
0, dated July 25, 2014 (UT 5077). UT 5077 contains the inspection
method, equipment and materials, calibration, and inspection procedure
for performing an ultrasonic inspection of nose gear actuator fitting
P/N 92209-01101-101.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Other Related Service Information

    We also reviewed Sikorsky S-92 Helicopter Alert Service Bulletin
92-32-004, Basic Issue, dated January 30, 2015 (ASB). The ASB describes
procedures for conducting a visual inspection of the NLG airframe
fitting assembly and an ultrasonic inspection by following the
procedures in UT 5077.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires removing the following components from service:
     Any MLG wheel axle P/N 2392-2334-001 that has 22,300 or
more landing cycles.
     Any MLG or NLG threaded hinge pin P/N 2392-2311-003 that
has 26,100 or more landing cycles.
     Any NLG cylinder P/N 2392-4006-005 that has 26,300 or more
landing cycles.
     Any NLG hinge pin P/N 2392-4312-003 that has 26,700 or
more landing cycles.
     Any landing gear actuator rod end P/N 2392-0876-901 that
has 41,700 or more landing cycles.
    For helicopters that have 31,600 or more landing cycles and an NLG
airframe fitting assembly P/N 92209-01101-041 installed, this AD also
requires:
     Using a 10X or higher power magnifying glass, inspecting
each bushing and all visible surfaces of mating lug fittings adjacent
to each bushing for fretting, corrosion, wear, and scratches.
     Replacing the NLG airframe fitting assembly before further
flight if there is fretting, corrosion, wear, or a scratch more than
0.0005 inch deep.
     Ultrasonic inspecting the NLG actuator fitting and
replacing the NLG actuator fitting before further flight if there are
any anomalies.

Differences Between This AD and the Service Information

    The ASB requires a repetitive inspection of the NLG airframe
fitting assemblies P/N 92209-01101-041 every 1,986 landing cycles; this
AD does not.

Interim Action

    We consider this AD to be an interim action. We are currently
considering requiring a repetitive inspection of the NLG airframe
fitting assemblies P/N 92209-01101-041 that would occur every 1,986
landing cycles. However, the planned compliance time for the
inspections would allow enough time to provide notice and opportunity
for prior public comment on the merits of the repetitive inspections.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 80 helicopters of U.S.
Registry.
    We estimate that operators may incur the following costs in order
to comply with this AD. At an average labor rate of $85 per hour:
     Replacing a wheel axle P/N 2392-2334-001 will require 2
work-hours and required parts cost $22,000, for a cost per helicopter
of $22,170.
     Replacing a MLG or NLG threaded hinge pin P/N 2392-2311-
003 will require 1 work-hour and required parts cost $3,800, for a cost
per helicopter of $3,885.
     Replacing a NLG cylinder P/N 2392-4006-005 will require 1
work-hour and required parts cost $27,200, for a cost per helicopter of
$27,285.
     Replacing a NLG hinge pin P/N 2392-4312-003 will require 1
work-hour and required parts cost $4,400, for a cost per helicopter of
$4,485.
     Replacing a landing gear actuator rod end P/N 2392-0876-
901 will require 1 work-hour and required parts cost $900, for a cost
per helicopter of $985.
     Inspecting the NLG airframe fitting assembly P/N 92209-
01101-041 will require 8 work-hours, and required parts cost is
minimal, for a cost of $680 per helicopter and $54,400 for the U.S.
fleet.
     If required, replacing a NLG actuator fitting P/N 92209-
01101-101 would require 70 work-hours, and required parts cost $10,000,
for a cost per helicopter of $15,950.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    Providing an opportunity for public comments prior to adopting
these AD requirements would delay implementing the safety actions
needed to correct this known unsafe condition. Therefore, we find that
the risk to the flying public justifies waiving notice and comment
prior to the adoption of this rule because replacing the landing gear
components affected by the life-limit reductions required by this AD
must be accomplished before further flight.
    Since an unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate
adoption of this AD, we determined that notice and opportunity for
public comment before issuing this AD are impracticable and that good
cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. 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.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed, I certify that this AD:
    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);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska to the extent that
it justifies making a regulatory distinction; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or

Adoption of the Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):

2017-14-03 Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Sikorsky): Amendment 39-
18947; Docket No. FAA-2017-0664; Directorate Identifier 2016-SW-073-
AD.

(a) Applicability

    This AD applies to Sikorsky Model S-92A helicopters,
certificated in any category.

(b) Unsafe Condition

    This AD defines the unsafe condition as fatigue failure of the
landing gear. This condition could result in failure of the landing
gear and subsequent damage to and loss of control of the helicopter.

(c) Effective Date

    This AD becomes effective August 11, 2017.

(d) Compliance

    You are responsible for performing each action required by this
AD within the specified compliance time unless it has already been
accomplished prior to that time.

(e) Required Actions

    (1) Before further flight, remove from service any part that has
accumulated the number of landing cycles listed in Table 1 to
paragraph (e)(1) of this AD. Thereafter, remove from service any
part before accumulating the number of landing cycles listed in
Table 1 to paragraph (e)(1) of this AD. For purposes of this AD, a
landing cycle is counted anytime the helicopter lifts off into the
air and then lands again regardless of the duration of the landing
and regardless of whether the engine is shut down. If the number of
landing cycles in unknown, multiply the number of hours time-in-
service by 4.5 to determine the number of landing cycles.

                                     Table 1 to Paragraph (e)(1) of This AD

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[HI 126-NBK; FRL-9712-2]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of
Hawaii; Update to Materials Incorporated by Reference

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; notice of administrative change.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is updating the materials submitted by the State of Hawaii
that are incorporated by reference (IBR) into the Hawaii State
Implementation Plan (SIP). The regulations affected by this update have
been previously submitted by the State of Hawaii and approved by EPA.
This update affects the SIP materials that are available for public
inspection at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA),
the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center located at EPA
Headquarters in Washington, DC, and the EPA Regional Office.

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective on February 21, 2013.

ADDRESSES: SIP materials which are incorporated by reference into 40
CFR part 52 are available for inspection at the following locations:

Air Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75
Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901;
Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center, EPA Headquarters
Library, Infoterra Room (Room Number 3334), EPA West Building, 1301
Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460; and
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

If you wish to obtain materials from a docket in the EPA Headquarters
Library, please call the Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) Docket/
Telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>. For information on the availability of
this material at NARA, call<PHONE_NUMBER>, or go to: http://www.archives.gov/federal-register/cfr/ibr-locations.html.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cynthia G. Allen, EPA Region IX, (415)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The SIP is a living document which the State revises as necessary
to address its unique air pollution problems. Therefore, EPA from time
to time must take action on SIP revisions containing new and/or revised
regulations to make them part of the SIP. On May 22, 1997 (62 FR
27968), EPA revised the procedures for incorporating by reference
federally-approved SIPs, as a result of consultations between EPA and
the Office of the Federal Register (OFR). The description of the
revised SIP document, IBR procedures and ``Identification of plan''
format are discussed in further detail in the May 22, 1997 Federal
Register document. On August 4, 2005 (70 FR 44852), as corrected on
August 23, 2005 (70 FR 49377), EPA published a document in the Federal
Register beginning the new IBR procedures for the State of Hawaii.

On April 23, 2012 (77 FR 24148) and April 27, 2012 (77 FR 25084) EPA
published updates to the IBR material for the State of Hawaii.

II. EPA Action

    In this action, EPA is doing the following:
    A. Announcing an update to the IBR material as of December 20,
2012; and
    B. Revising the entries in paragraphs 52.620(b) and (c) to reflect
this update.
    EPA has determined that today's rule falls under the ``good cause''
exemption in section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedures Act
(APA) which, upon finding ``good cause,'' authorizes agencies to
dispense with public participation and section 553(d)(3) which allows
an agency to make a rule effective immediately (thereby avoiding the
30-day delayed effective date otherwise provided for in the APA).
Today's rule simply codifies provisions which are already in effect as
a matter of law in Federal and approved State programs. Under section
553 of the APA, an agency may find good cause where procedures are
``impractical, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.''
Public comment is ``unnecessary'' and ``contrary to the public
interest'' since the codification only reflects existing law. Immediate
notice in the CFR benefits the public by removing outdated citations
and incorrect table entries.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. General Requirements

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by State law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the
SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the State,
and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on
tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

B. 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 action 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 the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not
a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

C. Petitions for Judicial Review

    EPA has also determined that the provisions of section 307(b)(1) of
the CAA pertaining to petitions for judicial review are not applicable
to this action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for each individual
component of the Hawaii SIP compilations had previously afforded
interested parties the opportunity to file a petition for judicial
review in the United States Court of Appeals for the appropriate
circuit within 60 days of such rulemaking action. Thus, EPA sees no
need in this action to reopen the 60-day period for filing such
petitions for judicial review for this ``Identification of plan''
reorganization update action for the State of Hawaii.
