1 SF 83 SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE NSPS SUBPART PPP STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE FOR WOOL FIBERGLASS INSULATION MANUFACTURING PLANTS AND NESHAP SUBPART NNN NATIONAL EMISSION STANDARDS FOR HAZARDOUS AIR POLLUTANTS FOR SOURCE CATEGORIES: WOOL FIBERGLASS MANUFACTURING PLANTS 1. Identification of the Information Collection 1( a) Title of the Information Collection ICR for Wool Fiberglass; including NSPS Subpart PPP  Standards of Performance for Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing Plants and NESHAP Subpart NNN  National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing.

1( b) Short Characterization/ Abstract This ICR includes two Clean Air Act standards for the wool fiberglass industry. Both the NSPS and MACT standards include basic recordkeeping and reporting; including initial notifications, performance testing, semiannual excess emission reports, and occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility. All reports are sent to the delegated State or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the EPA Regional Office.

NSPS Subpart PPP. The New Source Performance Standards ( NSPS) for Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing Plants were proposed on February 7, 1984 and promulgated on February 25, 1985. These standards apply to each rotary spin wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing line, which commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after February 2, 1984. The purpose of this NSPS is to control the emissions of particulate matter from each rotary spin wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing line. The standards limit particulate emissions to 5.5 kilogram per megagram ( 11.0 lb/ ton) of molten glass used to manufacture the product. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart PPP. Recordkeeping requirements specific to wool fiberglass insulation manufacturers include continuous measurements of control device operating parameters. Where a wet scrubbing control device is used, the owner or operator of an affected facility must measure the gas pressure drop across each scrubber and the scrubbing liquid flow rate to each scrubber no less than once every four hours. Owners or operators who comply using a wet electrostatic precipitator control device must measure the primary and secondary current and voltage in each electrical field and the inlet water flow rate no less than once every four hours. All records and reports of this information 1 Although there are an estimated 76 wool fiberglass manufacturing lines at 29 facilities, we are assuming that only one rotary spin manufacturing line exists at each facility.

2 must be retained for a period of two years. Approximately 29 sources are currently subject to NSPS Subpart PPP, and it is estimated that no new sources will become subject to the standard over the next three years. 1 The cost burden of NSPS Subpart PPP on the wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing industry will be $ 113,918.09 ( See Exhibit 13). NESHAP Subpart NNN. The Maximum Achievable Control Technology ( MACT) for Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing Plants were proposed on March 31, 1997 and promulgated on June 14, 1999. These standards apply to: each glass melting furnace located at a wool fiberglass manufacturing plant; each rotary spin ( RS) manufacturing line producing building insulation; each new and existing flame attenuation ( FA) manufacturing line that produces pipe products; and each new FA manufacturing line that produces heavy density products. Facilities that manufacture mineral wool from rock or slag are not subject to the proposed rule but are subject to a separate MACT standard for mineral wool production. A facility that is determined to be an area source would not be subject to this MACT standard The owner or operator subject to this MACT must demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this subpart by no later than June 14, 2002 for an existing manufacturing line or upon startup for a new manufacturing line The purpose of this MACT standard is to control the emissions of hazardous air pollutants. A surrogate approach, where particulate matter ( PM) serves as a surrogate for HAP metals and formaldehyde serves as a surrogate for organic HAPs, is employed to allow easier and less expensive testing and monitoring requirements. The proposed emission limits are provided in Exhibit 1.

EXHIBIT 1 Process Emission Limit Existing Facilities New Facilities Furnace 0.25 kg of PM per Mg of glass pulled. 0.25 kg of PM per Mg of glass pulled.

RS Manufacturing Line 0.6 kg of formaldehyde per Mg of glass pulled 0.40 kg of formaldehyde per Mg of glass pulled FA Manufacturing Line 3.4 kg of formaldehyde per Mg of glass pulled ( for Pipe Insulation); None ( for Heavy Density) 3.4 of formaldehyde per Mg of glass pulled ( for Pipe Insulation; 3.9 kg of formaldehyde per Mg of glass pulled.

Recordkeeping requirements specific to wool fiberglass insulation manufacturers include 2 Three of the 29 facilities subject to NSPS Subpart PPP are considered area sources and are not subject to MACT Subpart NNN.

3 continuous measurements of control device operating parameters ( e. g., bag leak detection system monitoring parameters for uncontrolled glass melting furnaces, scrubber operating parameters when used to comply with formaldehyde emission limits). Records and reports must be retained for a total of 5 years. A more detailed description of recordkeeping requirements for MACT Subpart NNN can be found in Exhibit 7. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNN. Approximately 26 sources are currently subject to the standard, and it is estimated that no new sources will become subject to the standard over the next three years. 2 The estimated annual cost burden of MACT Subpart NNN on the wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing industry will be $ 919,002 ( See Exhibit 14).

2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2( a) Need/ Authority for the Collection The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect: . . . application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which ( taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequately demonstrated [ Section 111( a)( l)]. The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology ( BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years. In the Administrator's judgment, particulate emissions from wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing plants cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, NSPS were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 60  Subpart PPP. EPA is also charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of hazardous air pollutants. These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction. In the Administrator's judgment, HAP emissions from wool fiberglass manufacturing plants also cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, a MACT standard was promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 63  Subpart NNN. In addition, Section 114( a) states that: . . . the Administrator may require any owner or operator subject to any requirement of this Act to . . . ( A) establish and maintain such records; ( B) make such reports; ( C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment or methods ( in accordance with such methods at 4 such locations, at such intervals, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); ( D) sample such emissions; ( E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; ( F) submit compliance certifications; and ( G) provide such other information as he may reasonably require.

2( b) PRACTICAL UTILITY/ USERS OF THE DATA The control of emissions of particulates and HAPs from wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing plants requires not only the installation of properly designed equipment, but also the operation and maintenance of that equipment. Emissions of particulates from wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing plants are the result of operation of each rotary spin wool fiberglass insulation manufacturing line. Emissions of HAPs from wool fiberglass manufacturing plants are the result of operation of each glass melting furnace and each RS and FA manufacturing line. These standards rely on the capture of particulate and HAPs emissions by control equipment such as a wet scrubbing control device or an electrostatic precipitator. The required notifications are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the standard. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated and the standard is being met. Performance test reports are needed as these are the Agency's record of a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and serve as a record of the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.

3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria 3( a) Nonduplication The recordkeeping and reporting requested is required under both 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart PPP and 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNN. If the standard has not been delegated the information is sent to the appropriate EPA Regional Office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated State or Local Agency. If a State or Local Agency has adopted their own similar regulation to implement the Federal Regulation, a copy of the report submitted to the State or Local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal Standard. Therefore, no duplication exists.

3( b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of the ICR for NSPS Subpart PPP was published in the Federal Register on October 29, 1999. An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of the ICR for MACT Subpart NNN was published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2000. 3 MACT Subpart NNN also includes facilities that manufacture fiberglass for liquid and air filtration. However, the majority of the facilities (~ 90%) manufacture fiberglass for building insulation.

5 3( c) Consultations No comments were received on the two notices published in the Federal Register.

3( d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the required standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the likelihood of detecting poor operation and maintenance of control equipment and noncompliance would decrease.

3( e) General Guidelines None of the reporting or recordkeeping requirements contained in 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart PPP or 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNN otherwise pertinent to this request violate any of the regulations established by OMB in 5 CFR 1320.6.

3( f) Confidentiality The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined not to be private. However, any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, Chapter 1, Part 2, Subpart B  Confidentiality of Business Information ( see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).

3( g) Sensitive Questions None of the reporting or recordkeeping requirements contained in 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart PPP or 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNN otherwise pertinent to this request contain sensitive questions.

5. The Information Collected  Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management 5( a) Agency Activities EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the information required under 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart PPP and 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNN:

EXHIBIT 9 Agency Activities Observe initial performance tests and repeat performance tests if necessary Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry Audit facility records Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Aerometric Information Retrieval System ( AIRS) database 5( b) Collection Methodology and Management Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority might inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated. Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on 10 source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations. Information contained in the reports is entered into AIRS which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards. AIRS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance and annual emission inventory data for over 100,000 industrial and government owned facilities. EPA uses AIRS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by Local and State regulatory agencies, and EPA Regional Offices and Headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required by NSPS Subpart PPP must be retained by the owner or operator for two years. The records required by MACT Subpart NNN must be retained by the owner or operator for five years.

5( c) Small Entity Flexibility There are no small businesses affected by this standard.

5( d) Collection Schedule The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown on Tables 3 and 4.

6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection Tables 3 and 4 document the computation of individual burdens for each of the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory ( 40 CFR § 60.680 and 40 CFR § 63.1380). The Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

6( a) Estimating Respondent Burden The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements for NSPS Subpart PPP is estimated at 2,074 hours. The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements for MACT Subpart NNN is estimated at 17,024 hours. These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the standards or test methods, Agency knowledge and experience with the NSPS and MACT programs, the previously approved ICR, and any comments received.

6( b) Estimating Respondent Costs ( I) Estimating Labor Costs This ICR uses a technical labor rate of $ 54.94 per hour, a management labor rate of $ 73.93, 4 The wage rate has been loaded by adding 110% overhead.

5 The previous ICR assumed that all facilities subject to Subpart NNN would come into compliance during the first year following the effective date. We believe this assumption to be incorrect. We are assuming that compliance with this standard will occur over the first three years following the effective date ( leading up to the compliance deadline of June 14, 2002). Therefore we assume that one third, or eight ( 8) facilities, came into compliance within the first year following the effective date. The capital costs associated with these eight ( 8) facilities would be captured in the previous ICR. The capital costs for the remaining 18 facilities will be captured in this ICR.

11 and a clerical labor rate of $ 34.42 from the United States Department of Commerce Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 1999, Table 10: Employment Costs for Private Industry by Occupational and Industry Group. The rate is from column 1: Total Compensation. 4 For NSPS Subpart PPP only technical hours are used to satisfy the reporting and recordkeeping requirements since this standard is older and more simplistic.

( ii) Estimating Capital and Operations and Maintenance Costs The capital and operations and maintenance ( O& M) costs for NSPS Subpart PPP are associated with the particulate matter monitoring equipment. The capital start up costs are one time costs when a facility becomes subject to the standard. Because no new sources are anticipated for this source category over the next three years, the capital startup costs are zero. The annual operations and maintenance costs associated with the particular monitoring equipment are $ 16,500. The capital and O& M costs for MACT Subpart NNN are associated with baghouse leak detection monitoring, furnace temperature monitoring, and formaldehyde emission monitoring. The capital/ startup costs are one time costs when a facility becomes subject to the standard. There are approximately 19 baghouses located at 11 wool fiberglass manufacturing facilities. Approximately one third, or six ( 6), of these baghouses are already in compliance5. We estimate that the remaining two thirds, or 13 baghouses, located at seven ( 7) facilities, will come into compliance before the compliance date. The capital cost for baghouse leak detection monitoring is estimated at $ 9,100 per baghouse. O& M costs for baghouse leak detection monitoring are estimated at $ 500 per year per baghouse. There are an estimated 13 cold top electric furnaces at six ( 6) facilities. Approximately onethird or four ( 4), of these furnaces are already in compliance. The remaining two thirds, or nine ( 9) furnaces, will come into compliance before the compliance date. The capital cost for furnace temperature monitors is estimated at $ 1,500 per monitor. There are no O& M costs associated with furnace temperature monitors. There are approximately 48 RS and FA manufacturing lines that need to be modified to correlate between formaldehyde emissions and process parameters. Approximately one third, or 16 manufacturing lines, are already in compliance. The remaining two thirds, or 32 manufacturing lines, will come into compliance before the compliance date. The capital cost for modifying each line is estimated to cost $ 15,000. Total annualized capital/ start up cost is $ 204,000 ($ 611,800/ 3). There are no O& M costs associated with formaldehyde emissions monitoring. 6 For this table the term " units" is used to describe each individual piece of equipment not each plant. Note however, that the average annual cost is calculated " per facility" not " per unit."

12 ( iii) Capital/ Startup vs. Operating and Maintenance ( O& M) Costs Exhibits 10 and 11 provide a summaries of the capital and O& M costs associated with both NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN, respectively.

Baghouse Leak Detection $ 9,100 13 $ 118,300 $ 500 13 $ 6,500 MACT Subpart NNN Capital/ Startup and Operating and Maintenance ( O& M) Costs 7 This average is based on 18 facilities that will come into compliance during this ICR time period ( average annual startup cost per facility = ( total startup cost/ number of facilities)/ 3).

8 This average is based on 26 total facilities that will be operating mid way through this ICR period ( average annual O& M cost per facility = ( total O& M cost/ number of facilities)/ 3).

9 There are only 29 wool fiberglass manufacturing facilities in the United States; however 26 of these 29 are subject to both standards.

13 Furnace Temperature Monitoring $ 1,500 9 $ 13,500 $ 0 0 $ 0 Formaldehyde Emission Monitoring $ 15,000 32 $ 480,000 $ 0 0 $ 0 Average Annual Cost Per Facility $ 11,3307 $ 838 6( c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost The only federal costs are user costs associated with analysis of the reported information. Publication and distribution of the information are part of the AIRS program. Examination of records to be maintained by the respondents will occur as part of the periodic inspection of sources, which is part of EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program. The average annual federal government cost for NSPS Subpart PPP during the 3 years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 4024.04. The average annual federal government cost for MACT Subpart NNN during the 3 years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 53,264. This cost is based on a federal government employee salary at the GS 10 Step 1 grade plus 110% overhead which is equal to $ 34.69 per hour.

6( d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs Exhibit 12 provides a summary of the combined respondent burdens for both NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN, including the total number of annual responses and the total burden hours required to comply with these two standards.

EXHIBIT 12 Total Combined Burden: NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN Standard Number of Respondents Total Annual Responses Total Hours Requested NSPS Subpart PPP 29 58 2,074 MACT Subpart NNN 26 70 17,024 Total Combined Burden 299 128 19,098 14 The estimated number of respondents to NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN is 29 and 26 respectively. We estimate that the total combined burden hours associated with these two standards will be 19,098 hours. These hours include the time required to prepare annual responses to Agency information requests as well as recordkeeping and monitoring requirements. Details upon which this estimate is based appear in tables 3 and 4 attached.

6( e) Bottom Line Burden Hours And Cost Tables Exhibits 13 and 14 provide summaries of the estimated overall cost burden of NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN on the wool fiberglass industry and EPA for the next three years. For a detailed breakdown of the costs, see Tables 1 4 attached.

The Agency burden associated with these two standards is estimated at $ 57,288. 10 The previous ICR for MACT Subpart NNN was approved on 5/ 31/ 97 and covers the first three years following promulgation of the standard; June 14, 1999 thru June 14, 2002. However, since the previous ICR expires on May 31, 2000, this ICR will overlap the previous ICR for two years, covering June 1, 2000 thru June 1, 2003.

15 6( f) Reasons for Change in Burden The primary source used to estimate the number of facilities subject to NSPS Subpart PPP and MACT Subpart NNN was the United States Geological Survey ( USGS). In addition, the North American Insulation Manufacturers Association's website provided additional information on the profile of the wool fiberglass insulation industry. Basically, there is slight decrease ( 116) in Burden Hours from the previous ICR. The formula used to calculate labor rates on the previous ICRs has been replaced by 1999 rates identified by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. As a result, the technical, management, and clerical labor rates are approximately $ 20.00 per hour higher than the previous rate. The change in labor rate and the increased number of facilities subject to NSPS Subpart PPP are the two primary factors contributing to the $ 64,568 increase in cost burden from the previous ICR. The change in labor rate is the primary reason for the increased annual cost burden on industry subject to MACT Subpart NNN from $ 541,000 to $ 919,002. We expect existing facilities to continue to come into compliance with MACT Subpart NNN during the first two years of this ICR in an effort to meet the June 14, 2002 compliance date. However, in the third year of this ICR, we expect all existing facilities to be in compliance with this MACT and thus expect a decrease in the overall burden on the industry ( see Table 4 ( a  c)). 10 6( g) Burden Statement Burden means 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. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15. Send comments on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated collection techniques to the Director, Collection Strategies Division, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ( 2822), 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, D. C. 20460; and to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk Officer for EPA. Include the EPA ICR number and OMB control number in any correspondence.

Part B of the Supporting Statement This part is not applicable because no statistical methods were used in collecting this information.

corrective actions if necessary. This AD was prompted by the
manufacturer's determination that the procedure for the rudder freeplay
inspection does not properly detect excessive freeplay in the rudder
control load loop. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct
excessive wear in the load loop components of the control surfaces,
which could lead to excessive freeplay of the control surfaces,
flutter, and consequent loss of control of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective July 21, 2015.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of July 21,
2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2007-13-05, Amendment 39-15109 (72 FR 33856,
June 20, 2007). AD 2007-13-05 applied to all The Boeing Company Model
777-200, -200LR, -300, and -300ER series airplanes. The NPRM published
in the Federal Register on July 29, 2014 (79 FR 43981). The NPRM was
prompted by a determination by the manufacturer that, after AD 2007-13-
05 was issued, the procedure for the rudder freeplay inspection did not
properly detect excessive freeplay in the rudder control load loop. The
NPRM proposed to continue to require repetitive freeplay inspections
and lubrication of the right and left elevators, rudder, and rudder
tab; and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. We
are issuing this AD to detect and correct excessive wear in the load
loop components of the control surfaces, which could lead to excessive
freeplay of the control surfaces, flutter, and consequent loss of
control of the airplane.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM (79
FR 43981, July 29, 2014) and the FAA's response to each comment.
    A4A, on behalf of American Airlines (AA), stated that AA is already
in compliance with the requirements proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 43981,
July 29, 2014).

Request To Exclude Certain Airplanes

    Boeing requested that the airplanes referenced in the SUMMARY
section and Discussion paragraph of the NPRM (79 FR 43981, July 29,
2014) be changed from ``all The Boeing Company Model 777 airplanes'' to
``most of The Boeing Company Model 777 airplanes.'' Boeing stated that
Model 777-200F airplanes are not affected by the NPRM.
    We agree to change the phrase ``all The Boeing Company Model 777
airplanes'' for clarity. This final rule supersedes AD 2007-13-05,
Amendment 39-15109 (72 FR 33856, June 20, 2007), which was applicable
to all Boeing Model 777-200, -200LR, -300, and -300ER series airplanes.
At the time AD 2007-13-05 was published, all Model 777-200, -200LR, -
300, and -300ER series airplanes were referred to as ``all The Boeing
Company Model 777 airplanes.'' Since then, Model 777F has been added to
the U.S. type certificate data sheet. We have revised the SUMMARY
section of this final rule to specify all The Boeing Company Model 777-
200, -200LR, -300, and -300ER series airplanes. The Discussion
paragraph of the NPRM (79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) is not restated in
this final rule.

Request To Clarify the Unsafe Condition

    Boeing requested that we clarify the unsafe condition specified in
the SUMMARY section, Discussion paragraph, and paragraph (e) of the
NPRM. Boeing stated that the repetitive freeplay inspections of the
right and left elevators, rudder, and rudder tab proposed in the NPRM
(79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) would not prevent, detect, or correct
flutter; the proposed freeplay inspections would detect excessive wear
in the load loop components of the control surfaces. Boeing pointed out
that excessive wear could lead to excessive freeplay of the control
surfaces, which could cause unacceptable airframe vibration during
flight.
    Based on the explanation provided by the commenter, we agree to
clarify the unsafe condition that is the basis for issuing this final
rule. However, we will not replace the word ``flutter'' with
``unacceptable airframe vibration'' because the unsafe condition is
flutter, not vibration. We have revised the unsafe condition statement
as follows, ``We are issuing this AD to detect and correct excessive
wear in the load loop components of the control surfaces, which could
lead to excessive freeplay of the control surfaces, flutter, and
consequent loss of control of the airplane.'' This revision appears in
the SUMMARY section and Discussion paragraph of the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section of this final rule, as well as paragraph (e) of
this AD.

Request To Clarify the Requirements of Paragraph (g) of the Proposed AD
(79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014)

    Boeing requested that we revise paragraph (g) of the proposed AD
(79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) by deleting ``rudder'' from the following
sentence: ``If during any inspection required by this paragraph, the
rudder freeplay exceeds any applicable measurement . . . .'' Boeing
explained that this statement is incorrect because it is not just the
rudder freeplay, but if any elevator, rudder, or rudder tab freeplay
exceeds any applicable measurement specified in the service
information, the

applicable corrective actions need to be accomplished before further
flight.
    We agree to revise the specified sentence in paragraph (g) of this
AD, because corrective actions before further flight are needed for any
elevator, rudder, or rudder tab freeplay that exceeds any applicable
measurement specified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-
27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014.

Requests To Correct Errors in the Service Information

    Japan Airlines (JAL) and United Airlines noted that there are
typographical errors in Appendix B and Appendix C of Boeing Special
Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27,
2014. JAL requested that the FAA issue an AD to mandate the
incorporation of the next revision (Revision 3) of Boeing Special
Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, or provide an exception to
these typographical errors in this AD. United Airlines requested that
the FAA issue a global alternative method of compliance (AMOC) to
correct the errors identified in Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014.
    We agree that Appendix B and Appendix C of Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014,
contain typographical errors. However, we do not consider that delaying
this action until after the release of the manufacturer's planned
service bulletin revision is warranted. Because some of these
typographical errors affect the procedures for correctly measuring the
freeplay of the rudder tab surface, we have provided the corrections
for those errors in paragraph (i) of this AD instead of issuing an
AMOC. Paragraph (i) of the proposed AD (79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) has
been redesignated as paragraph (i)(1) in this AD, and new paragraphs
(i)(2), (i)(3), and (i)(4) have been added to this AD. We have also
revised paragraph (g) of this AD to refer to paragraphs (i)(1) through
(i)(4) of this AD.

Additional Changes to This Final Rule

    Paragraph (k)(4) of the NPRM (79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) stated
that AMOCs approved previously for AD 2007-13-05, Amendment 39-15109
(72 FR 33856, June 20, 2007), are not approved as AMOCS for the
requirements of this AD. We have now determined that AMOCs for certain
actions required by AD 2007-13-05 are acceptable for the corresponding
requirements of this AD. We have revised paragraph (k)(4) of this AD
and added new paragraphs (k)(5) and (k)(6) to this AD to include this
information.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD with the changes described previously, and minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014) for correcting the unsafe condition;
and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 43981, July 29, 2014).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062,
Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014. The service information describes
procedures for repetitive freeplay inspections and lubrication of the
right and left elevators, rudder, and rudder tab, and related
investigative and corrective actions. 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 of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 142 airplanes of U.S. registry.
The new actions of this AD would add no additional economic burden to
that imposed by AD 2007-13-05, Amendment 39-15109 (72 FR 33856, June
20, 2007). The current costs for this AD are repeated for the
convenience of affected operators, as follows:

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 have 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 above, 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, 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

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.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by the manufacturer's determination that
the procedure for the rudder freeplay inspection does not properly
detect excessive freeplay in the rudder control load loop. We are
issuing this AD to detect and correct excessive wear in the load
loop components of the control surfaces, which could lead to
excessive freeplay of the control surfaces, flutter, and consequent
loss of control of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Repetitive Inspections of Elevators, Rudder, and Rudder Tab

    At the applicable times specified in tables 1, 2, and 3 of
paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014, except as
provided by paragraph (i)(1) of this AD: Inspect the freeplay of the
right and left elevators, rudder, and rudder tab by accomplishing
all of the actions specified in Parts 1, 3, and 5 of the
Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014, except as
provided by paragraphs (i)(2) through (i)(4) of this AD. Repeat the
inspections thereafter at the intervals specified in tables 1, 2,
and 3 of paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014.

(i) Exception to Service Information Specifications

    (1) Where Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062,
Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014, specifies a compliance time
``after the original issue date on this service bulletin,'' this AD
requires compliance within the specified compliance time after July
25, 2007 (the effective date of AD 2007-13-05, Amendment 39-15109
(72 FR 33856, June 20, 2007)).
    (2) Where Appendix B, paragraph 1.f., ``Freeplay Inspection,''
step (8), of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062,
Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014, specifies that the center of the
pad must be within 1.0 inch (13 millimeters) of the center line of

should be within one inch of the centerline line of the middle
rudder PCU rib and at 12 +/-1 inch (305 +/-72 millimeters) forward
of the rudder tab trailing edge, this AD requires placement of the
force gage and pad within one inch of the centerline line of the
middle rudder PCU rib and at 12 +/-1 inch (305 +/-25 millimeters)
forward of the rudder tab trailing edge.
    (4) Where Appendix C, paragraph 1.e., ``Rudder Tab Surface
Freeplay--Inspection,'' step (3), of Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, Revision 2, dated January 27, 2014,
specifies to apply a 30 +/-pound (133 +/-14 newton) force, this AD
requires applying a 30 +/-3 pound force (133 +/-14 newton) force.

(j) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for the actions required by
paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD, if those actions were performed
before the effective date of this AD using the service information
specified in paragraph (j)(1) or (j)(2) of this AD.
    (1) Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-27-0062, dated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In the Federal Register on October 25, 2019 (84 FR 57441), FDA
announced the availability of a revised draft guidance for FDA staff
and industry entitled ``Drug Products Labeled as Homeopathic.'' This
revised draft guidance was intended to describe how FDA intends to
prioritize enforcement and regulatory action with regard to drug
products, including biological products, labeled as homeopathic and
marketed in the United States without the required FDA approval. After
review of the comments received on the revised draft guidance, as well
as comments on the original draft guidance published on December 20,
2017, we are issuing this final guidance with minor revisions for
clarity and transparency.

    As part of the process of issuing this final guidance, FDA has also
taken into consideration the Citizen Petition filed on behalf of
Americans for Homeopathy Choice received by FDA on June 5, 2020, the
reasoning set forth in FDA's response to that Petition, and the
references cited therein. And as part of the process of issuing FDA's
response to that Petition, FDA has taken into consideration the
comments received on the original and revised draft guidances, the
reasoning set forth in this final guidance, and the references cited
therein.
    This final guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). It does not establish
any rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You
can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This guidance contains no collection of information. Therefore,
clearance by the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 is not required.

III. Electronic Access

    Persons with access to the internet may obtain the guidance at
https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatoryInformation/Guidances/default.htm, https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/guidance-compliance-regulatory-information-biologics/biologics-guidances, https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/search-fda-guidance-documents, or https://www.regulations.gov.

MEMORANDUM

To: Carbon Power Plan for Existing Power Plants; Docket id: OAR-2013-0602

From: Region 5, EPA

Subject: 8/27/14, Conference Call Regarding Proposed Carbon Plan for Existing Power Plants

Summary: A conference call was held between EPA and attendees from Ohio on October 7, 2014 to discuss the proposed Carbon Power Plan for Existing Power Plants.  The following list of questions was submitted for discussion by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency

Attendees may have included: Carbon Pollution Input; Ward, Adam; Czerniak, George; Cain, Alexis; Furey, Eileen; Newman, Erin; Wilson, Erika; Dalcher, Debra; Solomon, David; Ketcham-Colwill, Jim; Santiago, Juan; Torres, Elineth; Topham, Nathan; Bremer, Kristen; Stevens, Gabrielle; Culligan, Kevin; Clouse, Matt; Fisher, Brian; Adamantiades, Mikhail; Bryson, Joe; Conlin, Beth; Sherry, Christopher; Eschmann, Erich; Dietsch, Nikolaas; Sims, Ryan; Murray, Beth; Harvey, Reid; Boswell, Colin; Fellner, Christian
The following questions were submitted prior to the call.

                      Ohio EPA - Questions for USEPA Call
                         Scheduled for August 27, 2014

Rate to Mass Conversion:

   1. Can U.S. EPA please describe what an acceptable Rate-to-Mass conversion?
What are the attributes of an acceptable conversion equation?
Can USEPA please provide examples of an approved conversion?
How will shutdowns from the MATS rule be counted in the conversion to a mass based plan?
If shutdowns must be accounted for in determining a rate based goal, why are these shutdowns not accounted for in the mass determination in a manner that would give credit for the millions of tons of CO2 emissions that will be prevented by these shutdowns?
If guidance and/or examples are not available, when will they be provided?

Other Questions:

   2. Can the data and analysis used in the projection of the 6% heat rate improvement be provided?  Specifically, the database of existing CFPP units and 16 facilities that have achieved HRI of 3-8 percent year after year.  Also, the EPA Region 7 study for seven coal fired units at three anonymous plants with details on the specific equipment upgrades.  Per GHG Abatement Measures page 2-32

IPM Related Questions:

   3. To date, numerous pieces of data and IPM support documentation have not been released including, but not limited to, the following:
         * IPM Parsed Files: Option 1 State, 2030
         * IPM Parsed Files: Option 1 Regional, 2025
         * IPM Parsed Files: Option 1 Regional, 2030
         * IPM Parsed Files: Option 2 State, 2025

      During a recent conversation with USEPA, staff indicated that these parsed data files were unavailable for review and there was no intention of releasing them.  We would like confirmation that this is the case.  Alternatively, will EPA issue a NODA similar to the process in CSAPR when missing information was identified?

   4. How did USEPA examine the IPM data to assess feasibility, projections and cost in the modelling data inputs and results if parsed data files were not available?  Was there any state or unit specific analysis of the feasibility of the results performed?

   5. Does EPA plan to reexamine mistakes in IPM modeling that states comment on?  If so, what will be the process for correcting the errors?

   6. Did EPA look at any other "base" year than 2012?  Can an inventory of units in other years besides 2012 be provided to Ohio in the same format and parsed in the same manner as used for the goal setting portion? 2008 would be very valuable.  This would be the same format and have the same data as the TSD Excel spreadsheet tsd-plant-level-data-unit-level-inventory_App7.xlsx and tsd-egrid-methodology.xlsx.

   7. Can a state, in a state plan, take credit for all nuclear generation, or only 5.8%?

   8. Can USEPA confirm that the shadow cost for Ohio in the IPM model was $11.30 in 2030?

   9. How was EE represented and constrained in the IPM model?

   10. Was any consideration given to base-load generation vs peaking generation in IPM?

   11. Can USEPA confirm that no new NGCC generation was projected for Ohio by IPM in Option 1  -  State scenario?

   12. Was "remaining useful life" of specific units accounted for in the IPM model?  How can states account for remaining useful life in examining their state goal and in developing their state plans?

   13. Can a spreadsheet detailing the determination of the RE goals be provided?

   14. How were renewables/RE accounted for in IPM in the Option 1  -  State scenario?

   15. Can updated capacity factor data for eGrid-2010 (2007 data) be provided?  Capacity factor data is largely absent in this data set.

   16. There is a ~10% difference between heat rates in IPM and those derived following USEPA's methodology in the goal setting TSD.  What is the cause of this difference?

   17. Can USEPA confirm that the capacity factors projected by IPM case Option  -  1 State are around 80 to 85% for coal?

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

 [SEC File No. 270-453; OMB Control No. 3235-0510]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 302

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget a request for extension of the previously approved
collection of information discussed below.
    Regulation ATS (17 CFR 242.300 et seq.) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) provides a regulatory structure
that directly addresses issues related to alternative trading systems'
role in the marketplace. Regulation ATS allows alternative trading
systems to choose between two regulatory structures. Alternative
trading systems have the choice between registering as broker-dealers
and complying with Regulation ATS or registering as national securities
exchanges. Rule 302 of Regulation ATS describes the recordkeeping
requirements for alternative trading systems that are not national
securities exchanges. Under Rule 302, alternative trading systems are
required to make a record of subscribers to the alternative trading
system, daily summaries of trading in the alternative trading system,
and time-sequenced records of order information in the alternative
trading system.
    The information required to be collected under the Rule should
increase the abilities of the Commission, state securities regulatory
authorities, and the SROs to ensure that alternative trading systems
are in compliance with Regulation ATS as well as other rules and
regulations of the Commission and the SROs. If the information is not
collected or collected less frequently, the Commission would be
severely limited in its ability to comply with its statutory
obligations, provide for the protection of investors and promote the
maintenance of fair and orderly markets.
    Respondents consist of alternative trading systems that choose to
register as broker-dealers and comply with the requirements of
Regulation ATS. The Commission estimates that there are currently
approximately 65 respondents.
    An estimated 65 respondents will spend approximately 2,340 hours
per year (65 respondents at 36 burden hours/respondent) to comply with
the recordkeeping requirements of Rule 302. At an average cost per
burden hour of $86.54, the resultant total related cost of compliance
for these respondents is $202,504.00 per year (2,340 burden hours
multiplied by $86.54/hour; a slight discrepancy is due to arithmetic
rounding).
    Compliance with Rule 302 is mandatory. The information required by
the Rule 302 is available only to the examination of the Commission
staff, state securities authorities and the SROs. Subject to the
provisions of the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 522, and the
Commission's rules thereunder (17 CFR 200.80(b)(4)(iii)), the
Commission does not generally publish or make available information
contained in any reports, summaries, analyses, letters, or memoranda
arising out of, in anticipation of, or in connection with an
examination or inspection of the books and records of any person or any
other investigation.
    Regulation ATS requires alternative trading systems to preserve any
records, for at least three years, made in the process of complying
with the systems capacity, integrity and security requirements.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
    Comments should be directed to (i) Desk Officer for the Securities
and Exchange Commission, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office
Building, Washington, DC 20503 or by sending an e-mail to:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and (ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief

Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Shirley
Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312 or send an e-
mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Comments must be submitted within 30
days of this notice.
