Critical use methyl bromide means the class I, Group VI controlled substance produced or imported through expending a critical use allowance or that portion of inventory produced or imported prior to the January 1, 2005, phaseout date that is sold only for approved critical uses through expending a critical stock allowance.

Approved critical use(s) are those uses of methyl bromide listed in Column A of Appendix L to Subpart A of 40 CFR Part 82 as further clarified in Columns B and C of that appendix.

1.7   Signature of Reporting Company Representative

I certify, under penalty of law, that the quantities of methyl bromide specified in Section 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4 of  this form, are ordered/purchased and will be sold or used exclusively for an approved critical use (pre-plant or post-harvest) as identified, and not sold/ transferred to another person.  I certify that I am an approved critical user and I will use this quantity of methyl bromide for an approved critical use.  My action conforms to the requirements associated with the critical use exemption published in 40 CFR part 82.  I am aware that any agricultural commodity within a treatment chamber, facility or field I fumigate with critical use methyl bromide cannot subsequently or concurrently be fumigated with non-critical use methyl bromide during the same control period, excepting a QPS treatment or treatment for a different use (e.g., a different crop or commodity).  I will not use this quantity chamber, facility, or field that I previously fumigated with non-critical use methyl bromide during the same control period, excepting a QPS treatment or treatments for a different use (e.g., a different crop[ or commodity), unless a local township limit now prevents me from using methyl bromide alternatives or I have now become an approved critical user as a result of rulemaking.

I certify under penalty of law that I have personally examined and am familiar with the information submitted in this and all attached documents, and that based on my inquiry of those individuals immediately responsible for obtaining the information, I believe that the submitted information is true, accurate, and complete.  I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting false information, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment.

                           Questions and Answers on
              OSHA's Infectious Diseases Regulatory Framework

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What types of infectious agents would be addressed by the regulatory framework?
OSHA is considering a program standard to address worker exposure to infectious diseases transmitted by routes (i.e., contact, droplet, airborne) other than the bloodborne route.  Some examples of infectious agents primarily transmitted by each of the three other transmission routes are listed below:
     *      Contact-transmissible agents (e.g., methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), noroviruses)
     *      Droplet-transmissible agents (e.g., influenza viruses, Bordetella pertussis)
     *      Airborne-transmissible agents (e.g., Mycobacterium tuberculosis, SARS-CoV)
Worker exposure to infectious agents transmitted by the bloodborne route is already covered by the Bloodborne Pathogens standard (29 CFR 1910.1030).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What types of workplaces and job duties would be covered under the regulatory framework?
OSHA is considering a vertical program standard intended to cover health care services where patient care is provided as well as services that process materials contaminated with infectious agents.  Some settings where workers would be covered by the framework include the following:
   *
   *      Acute care hospitals
   *      Long-term care facilities
   *      Home health care
   *      Ambulatory surgical centers
   *      Physician's offices
   *      Hospice care
   *      Clinics embedded in non-healthcare settings (e.g., schools, prisons)
   *      Mortuaries
   *      Diagnostic, research, and production laboratory facilities
   *      Medical equipment reprocessing facilities

The scope of the framework generally covers workers in settings where there is a reasonable anticipation of occupational exposure to infectious agents during job tasks that involve:

            *      Hands-on or face-to-face contact with patients (i.e., provision of direct patient care), such as tasks provided by nurses, physicians, physical and occupational therapists, paramedics, and emergency responders, or
      *      Performance of other covered tasks:
            o         Ancillary activities in settings where direct patient care is provided, such as tasks provided by triage receptionists, housekeepers, and food service workers, or
            o         Processing of contaminated materials, such as tasks performed by laundry workers who handle medical linens, workers reprocessing medical equipment, and workers in diagnostic, research and production laboratory facilities, or
            o         Processing of human remains, such as tasks associated with mortuary services.

The framework does not apply to:
      *      Workers who provide first aid only,
      *      Veterinarians,
      *      Workers performing tasks not covered under the framework (e.g., teachers, prison guards, and athletic trainers).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key elements that the regulatory framework would require for a Worker Infection Control Plan (WICP)?
   *      A written WICP would need to be developed, implemented, and updated annually, and contain the following elements:
         o         Plan administrator responsible for implementation and oversight of WICP and person(s) responsible for daily management of WICP,
         o         Exposure determination with list of all job classifications where some or all workers have occupational exposure,
         o         Workplace-specific standard operating procedures (SOPs) for infection control measures.
   *      Make WICP accessible to workers and train workers on the WICP.
      *      Ensure contractors, vendors, and licensed independent practitioners with privileges working within your facility adhere to infection control practices consistent with, or more protective than your WICP.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key SOPs that would be required in all affected workplaces?

Develop SOPs consistent with recognized and generally accepted good infection control practices (e.g., CDC/HICPAC and NIH guidelines) for:

      *      Prompt identification of sources of infectious agents (i.e., infectious agent hazard evaluations),
      *      Communication of hazard evaluations to employees,
      *      Hand hygiene,
      *      Restriction of some activities (e.g., eating and drinking) in exposure areas,
      *      Use of engineering, administrative and work practice controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE),
      *      Decontamination,
      *      Handling, containerization, transport, or disposal of contaminated materials,
      *      Occupational health services,
      *      Investigations of exposure incidents,
      *      Use of appropriate signage and labeling/color-coding,
      *      Notification to other employers of occupational exposure during transfer, transport, shipping, or receipt of infectious agent sources.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key SOPs that would be required in settings where direct patient care is provided (in addition to SOPs required of all affected workplaces)?
If your employees provide direct patient care, you would need to develop SOPs for:

   *      Standard and transmission-based precautions that protect workers from exposure to patients with suspected or confirmed infectious diseases,
   *      Prompt identification of patients with suspected or confirmed infectious diseases,
   *      Patient isolation and placement/transfer of patients with suspected or confirmed infectious diseases,
   *      Proper airborne infection isolation room (AIIR) operation, if an AIIR is available at the facility,
   *      Medical surge procedures, if these services are provided by the facility.

You would be able to tailor the above SOPs to your individual settings (e.g., acute care hospitals vs. ambulatory care settings), depending on the type of infectious agents commonly encountered in the setting, and the frequency of worker exposure.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key SOPs that would be required in settings where other covered tasks are performed (in addition to SOPs required of all affected workplaces)?

If your employees perform other covered tasks, you would need to develop SOPs for:

   *      Handling and intake of contaminated materials,
   *      Implementing control measures to prevent or minimize transmission of infectious agents.

In addition, diagnostic, research and production laboratory facilities would require SOPs for implementing standard microbiological practices for handling infectious agents, including:
     *      Proper construction, operation and maintenance of engineering controls,
   *      Measures to address uncontrolled releases of infectious agents.

You would be able to tailor the above SOPs to your individual setting, depending on the type of setting, the type of infectious agents commonly encountered in the setting, and the frequency of worker exposure.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key medical screening, surveillance and vaccination provisions in the regulatory framework?

   *      A physician or other licensed healthcare professional (PLHCP) would determine the necessity and frequency of medical screening and surveillance for all exposed workers,
   *      Exposed workers would be offered all vaccinations consistent with recognized and generally accepted good infection control practices after training and prior to initial assignment
   *      Confidential post-exposure evaluation and follow-up would be offered to each exposed employee following an exposure incident,
   *      Medical removal protection as a result of an exposure incident, other than an incidents involving the common cold or influenza, that includes:
         o         Employee restrictions or removal based on PLHCP's recommendation,
         o         Payment of normal earnings, and maintenance of seniority and rights and benefits, until removed/restricted employee is noninfectious.  Benefits not to exceed18 months.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some key worker training provisions in the regulatory framework?

You would provide a training program to all workers with occupational exposure.  It would:

   *      Be provided to employees prior to initial assignment and at least annually thereafter,
   *      Explain contents of the OSHA standard,  and the specifics of the WICP and SOPs that are tailored to your facility,
   *      Be conducted by knowledgeable person, using material appropriate for a worker's education level and language.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What are some recordkeeping procedures in the regulatory framework?

Maintenance of the following records for the specified time periods:

   *      Medical records - duration of employment plus 30 years;
   *      Exposure incident records - duration of employment plus 30 years; and
   *      WICP review records - 3 years.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-78759; File No. SR-FINRA-2016-024]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Order Granting Approval of Proposed Rule Change To
Create an Academic Corporate Bond TRACE Data Product

September 2, 2016.

I. Introduction

    On June 28, 2016, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a
proposed rule change to amend FINRA Rule 7730 to create a new data
product consisting of data on historic transactions in corporate bonds
reported to the Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine (``TRACE'') that
would be available to institutions of higher learning (the ``Academic
Corporate Bond TRACE Data product''). The proposed rule change was
published for comment in the Federal Register on July 7, 2016.\3\ The
Commission received three comments in response to the proposal.\4\ On
August 9, 2016, FINRA extended to September 2, 2016, the time period
within which the Commission shall approve the proposed rule change,
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change

should be disapproved.\5\ FINRA responded to the comments on August 23,
2016.\6\ This order grants approval of the proposed rule change.

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

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    FINRA has proposed to make available to institutions of higher
learning a new Academic Corporate Bond TRACE Data product that would
contain transaction-level data on historic transactions in corporate
bonds and would include masked counterparty information. Currently,
FINRA makes publicly available real-time data in TRACE-eligible
securities and a Historic TRACE Data product that provides transaction-
level data, on an 18-month delayed basis, without any counterparty
information.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See FINRA Rule 7730(f)(4). See also Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 61012 (November 16, 2009), 74 FR 61189 (November 23,
2009) (Order Approving File No. SR-FINRA-2007-006).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In the Notice, FINRA stated that academic researchers cannot use
the existing Historic TRACE Data product to track the behavior of an
individual dealer or group of dealers due to the lack of any
counterparty information. FINRA stated that this proposal responds to
requests from academics for FINRA to make available an enhanced data
product that includes counterparty identification.\8\ FINRA has
represented that establishing a new TRACE data product with masked
counterparty identifiers could allow academic researchers to track
activity in a variety of ways, including by individual dealer or by
groups of dealers, and could facilitate the ability of academic
researchers to study the impact of various events on measures such as
intermediation costs, dealer participation, and liquidity.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Notice, 81 FR at 44359.
    \9\ See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposal would amend FINRA Rule 7730 to create a new Academic
Corporate Bond TRACE Data product consisting of historic transaction-
level data on all transactions in corporate bonds reported to TRACE,
including Rule 144A transactions in corporate bonds but not including
transactions that are List or Fixed Offering Price Transactions \10\ or
Takedown Transactions.\11\ FINRA noted that the existing Historic TRACE
Data product also does not include List or Fixed Offering Price
Transactions or Takedown Transactions. Under the proposal, a
transaction included in the Academic Corporate Bond TRACE Data product
would be aged at least 36 months before being incorporated into the
dataset. Each such transaction would not include any MPIDs, but would
instead include a masked dealer identifier.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ FINRA Rule 6710(q) defines ``List or Fixed Offering Price
Transaction'' as a primary market sale transaction sold on the first
day of trading of a security, excluding a Securitized Product as
defined in FINRA Rule 6710(m) other than an Asset-Backed Security as
defined in FINRA Rule 6710(cc): (i) By a sole underwriter, syndicate
manager, syndicate member, or selling group member at the published
or stated list or fixed offering price; or (ii) in the case of a
primary market sale transaction effected pursuant to Securities Act
Rule 144A, by an initial purchaser, syndicate manager, syndicate
member, or selling group member at the published or stated fixed
offering price.
    \11\ FINRA Rule 6710(r) defines ``Takedown Transaction'' as a
primary market sale transaction sold on the first day of trading of
a security, excluding a Securitized Product other than an Asset-
Backed Security: (i) By a sole underwriter or syndicate manager to a
syndicate or selling group member at a discount from the published
or stated list or fixed offering price; or (ii) in the case of a
primary market sale transaction effected pursuant to Securities Act
Rule 144A, by an initial purchaser or syndicate manager to a
syndicate or selling group member at a discount from the published
or stated fixed offering price.
    \12\ See proposed FINRA Rule 7730(g)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Academic Corporate Bond TRACE Data product would be available
only to institutions of higher education.\13\ Any institution of higher

Not to attempt to reverse-engineer the identity of any market
participant; (2) not to redistribute the data; (3) to disclose each
intended use of the data (including a description of each study being
performed and the names of each individual who will have access to the

III. Summary of Comments and FINRA's Response

    The Commission received three comments on the proposed rule change
\17\ and a response letter from FINRA.\18\ Two commenters generally
supported the proposal. One of these commenters, an academic
researcher, stated that, ``[t]o study the impact of banking regulation
on bond dealers, it is necessary to obtain information on the identity
of dealers associated with each transaction. The Historic TRACE data
product does not contain this information.'' \19\ The commenter pointed
to the masked dealer identifier information in the new proposed product
as a significant advantage over the Historic TRACE Data product, and
stated that he ``expect[s] that FINRA's new Academic data initiative
will lead to an explosion in academic research on corporate bonds and
provide new insights on the functioning of the bond market.'' \20\

    \20\ Id. at 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A second commenter, while generally supportive of the proposal,
expressed the view that FINRA could make modifications to provide
additional protections against the potential for reverse engineering
the data without impeding its goals of promoting academic access and
research.\21\ This commenter stated that the potential impact of
reverse engineering could include deciphering a dealer's trading
strategies and revealing confidential business information relating to
specific client transactions.\22\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ See SIFMA Letter at 2.
    \22\ See id. at 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A third commenter opposed the proposal, arguing that it would
expose dealers and their customers to unnecessary risks.\23\ The
commenter stated, for example, that ``[i]t is very likely that, as a
consequence of this proposal, private and non-educational entities will
end up possessing full trade history including dealer names for every
trade released.'' \24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ See BDA Letter at 1.
    \24\ Id. at 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The two industry commenters offered differing views on aspects of
the proposal that FINRA designed to reduce the risk of reverse
engineering specific dealer identities. The second commenter thought
that limiting the

scope of the data product to transactions in corporate bonds, including
Rule 144A transactions but excluding information on List or Fixed
Offering Price Transactions or Takedown Transactions, would mitigate
the risk of reverse engineering.\25\ The second commenter also
acknowledged that the proposal's aging period of 36 months (expanded
from 24 months in an earlier iteration) would help reduce the risk of
reverse engineering, but thought that an aging period of no less than
48 months would be more appropriate.\26\ The third commenter supported
the exclusion of List or Fixed Offering Price Transactions from the
scope of the proposal and acknowledged that expanding the aging period
and masking dealer identities would make reverse engineering more
difficult, but expressed the view that these measures were not
sufficient to reduce the risk of reverse engineering to an acceptable
level.\27\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See SIFMA Letter at 2.
    \26\ See id.
    \27\ See BDA Letter at 1-2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the two industry commenters suggested that FINRA make
the transaction data available according to groupings of comparable
dealers, instead of on an individual dealer level, arguing that masked
dealer identifiers might not effectively protect their identities.\28\
The academic commenter, who supported the proposal without
modification, objected to this suggestion of the other commenters and
argued that providing the data by pre-set groupings could stifle
academic research. This commenter explained that individual dealer-
level data would allow academic researchers to maintain needed
flexibility to construct samples of dealers in a manner best suited to
their specific research question.\29\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \28\ See SIFMA Letter at 3 (suggesting that FINRA aggregate
dealers by the peer group criteria used in FINRA report cards); BDA
Letter at 2-3 (suggesting that FINRA aggregate dealers by size).
    \29\ See Venkataraman Letter at 3. For example, the commenter
noted that academic researchers may wish to aggregate dealers into
groups based on whether or not they are active market makers with
high market share, whether they specialize in high yield bonds or
investment grade bonds, or whether they increase liquidity provision
or withdraw participation when volatility is high. See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The two industry commenters also offered suggestions regarding
strengthening and enforcing the proposed user agreements. The second
commenter urged FINRA to develop ``robust operational frameworks around
the execution and ongoing oversight of user agreements . . . [in order
to] further mitigate concerns of reverse engineering and information
leakage.'' \30\ The third commenter stated that, although the proposed
user agreements are designed to prevent redistribution of the data,
federal and state Freedom of Information Act (``FOIA'') laws could
defeat such intention if the transaction data is held by a public
university and classified as a public record.\31\ This commenter also
raised concerns about data security, suggesting that the data could be
subject to hacking or data theft during transmission or when held by an
institution of higher education.\32\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \30\ SIFMA Letter at 4.
    \31\ See BDA Letter at 2.
    \32\ See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In its response to these comments, FINRA stated that it ``continues
to believe that the instant proposal strikes the appropriate balance
between addressing risks regarding potential reverse engineering with
facilitating the ability of academic researchers to study the market
for corporate bonds.'' \33\ FINRA explained that it made significant
changes to an earlier iteration of the proposal, including limiting the
scope of the proposed data product to corporate bonds. In FINRA's view,
transaction data on corporate bonds does not present a high risk of
accurate reverse engineering because generally these bonds are traded
by a greater number of dealers.\34\ FINRA also noted that it raised the
minimum age of included transactions from 24 months to 36 months. FINRA
expressed its belief that the ``totality of the measures'' included in
this proposal adequately address the commenters' concerns.\35\ FINRA
also stated that the user agreements will include provisions geared
towards data security and designed to limit the risk of public
disclosure due to federal or state FOIA requests. FINRA noted that it
will utilize its existing processes to oversee user agreements. FINRA
further explained that it will monitor use of the Academic Corporate
Bond TRACE Data product and may consider amending or discontinuing the
product if it finds that academics are reverse engineering the
data.\36\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \33\ FINRA Response Letter at 2.
    \34\ See id. FINRA also noted that any reverse engineering of
market participant identities would be in direct contravention of
explicit prohibitions in the user agreements. See id.
    \35\ See id.
    \36\ See id. at 2-3 and n. 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, although one commenter suggested expanding the user group
for Academic Corporate Bond TRACE Data to other non-profit
organizations engaged in research activities,\37\ FINRA responded that
``in light of the sensitivities'' surrounding making transaction-level
data available, even with masked dealer identifiers, ``FINRA believes
it is appropriate to restrict the availability of Academic Corporate
Bond TRACE Data to institutions of higher education at this time.''
\38\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \37\ See SIFMA Letter at 4-5.
    \38\ FINRA Response Letter at 3. FINRA noted that non-academic
institutions may still subscribe to Historic TRACE Data, which
includes transaction-level data without dealer-level information.
See id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Discussion and Commission Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities
association.\39\ In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\40\ which
requires, among other things, that FINRA's rules be designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors
and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \39\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has
considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \40\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that establishing the Academic Corporate
Bond TRACE Data product in the manner described in the proposal is
reasonable and consistent with the Act. The Commission does not believe
that the commenters have raised any issue that would preclude approval
of the proposal at this time. The proposal appears reasonably designed
to minimize the possibility that the product might reveal the
identities or trading strategies of particular market participants.
FINRA has limited the scope of the data product to include only
transactions in corporate bonds, will mask counterparty identities, is
requiring transaction data to be aged 36 months prior to inclusion, and
will require subscribers to execute a user agreement imposing
restrictions on use of the data. The required user agreements appear
reasonably designed to limit information leakage while providing
institutions of higher education a potentially important new tool to
analyze concerns about bond market liquidity.

IV. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\41\ that the proposed rule change (SR-FINRA-2016-024) be, and
hereby is, approved.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 25

[Docket No. FAA-2018-0781; Special Conditions No. 25-737-SC]

Special Conditions: Garmin International, Textron Aviation Inc.
Model 560XL; Airplane Electronic-System Security Protection From
Unauthorized External Access

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final special conditions; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: These special conditions are issued for the Textron Aviation
(Textron) Model 560XL, formerly known as, prior to July 29, 2015, the
Cessna Model 560XL. This airplane, as modified by Garmin International
(Garmin), will have a novel or unusual design feature when compared to
the state of technology envisioned in the airworthiness standards for
transport category airplanes. This design feature is Garmin G5000
avionics that allow external connection to previously isolated data
networks, which are connected to systems that perform

functions required for the safe operation of the airplane. This feature
creates a potential for unauthorized persons to access the aircraft-
control domain and airline information-services domain, and presents
security vulnerabilities related to the introduction of computer
viruses and worms, user errors, and intentional sabotage of airplane
electronic assets (networks, systems, and databases). The applicable
airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety
standards for this design feature. These special conditions contain the
additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary
to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the
existing airworthiness standards.

DATES: This action is effective on Garmin on November 21, 2018. Send
comments on or before January 7, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Send comments identified by docket no. FAA-2018-0781 using

telephone and fax<PHONE_NUMBER>; email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The substance of these special conditions
has been published in the Federal Register for public comment in
several prior instances with no substantive comments received. The FAA
therefore finds it unnecessary to delay the effective date and finds
that good cause exists for making these special conditions effective
upon publication in the Federal Register.

Comments Invited

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

Background

    On March 21, 2017, Garmin applied for a supplemental type
certificate to install Garmin G5000 avionics connected to the aircraft-
control domain and airline information-services domain in Textron Model
560XL airplanes. This is a twin-engine, turbofan airplane with seating
for 12 passengers and two crew members, and a maximum takeoff weight of
20,200 pounds.

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR) 21.101, Garmin must show that the Textron Model 560XL airplane, as
changed, continues to meet the applicable provisions of the regulations
listed in Type Certificate No. A22CE, or the applicable regulations in
effect on the date of application for the change, except for earlier
amendments as agreed upon by the FAA.
    If the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness
regulations (i.e., 14 CFR part 25) do not contain adequate or
appropriate safety standards for the Textron Model 560XL airplane
because of a novel or unusual design feature, special conditions are
prescribed under the provisions of Sec.  21.16.
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the model for which
they are issued. Should the applicant apply for a supplemental type
certificate to modify any other model included on the same type
certificate to incorporate the same novel or unusual design feature,
these special conditions would also apply to the other model under
Sec.  21.101.
    In addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special
conditions, the Textron Model 560XL airplane must comply with the fuel-
vent and exhaust-emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34, and the
noise-certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36.
    The FAA issues special conditions, as defined in 14 CFR 11.19, in
accordance with Sec.  11.38, and they become part of the type
certification basis under Sec.  21.101.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The Textron Model 560XL airplane, as modified by Garmin, will
incorporate the following novel or unusual design features:
    Garmin G5000 avionics that allow external connection to previously
isolated data networks, which are connected to systems that perform
functions required for the safe operation of the airplane.

Discussion

    The Textron Model 560XL airplane architecture and network
configuration may allow increased connectivity to and access from
external network sources and airline operations and maintenance
networks to the airplane control domain and airline information
services domain. The airplane control domain and airline information-
services domain perform functions required for the safe operation and
maintenance of the airplane. Previously, these domains had very limited
connectivity with external network sources. This data network and
design integration creates a potential for unauthorized persons to
access the aircraft-control domain and airline information-services
domain, and presents security vulnerabilities related to the
introduction of computer viruses and worms, user errors, and
intentional sabotage of airplane electronic assets (networks, systems,
and databases) critical to the safety and maintenance of the airplane.
    The existing regulations and guidance material did not anticipate
these types of airplane system architectures. Furthermore, 14 CFR
regulations and the current system safety assessment policy and
techniques do not address

potential security vulnerabilities, which could be exploited by
unauthorized access to airplane networks, data buses, and servers.
Therefore, these special conditions ensure that the security (i.e.,
confidentiality, integrity, and availability) of airplane systems is
not compromised by unauthorized wired or wireless electronic
connections.
    These special conditions contain the additional safety standards
that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of
safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness
standards.

Applicability

    As discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the
Textron Model 560XL airplane. Should Garmin apply at a later date for a
supplemental type certificate to modify any other model included on
Type Certificate No. A22CE to incorporate the same novel or unusual
design feature, these special conditions would apply to that model as
well.

Conclusion

    This action affects only certain novel or unusual design features
on one model of airplane. It is not a rule of general applicability and
affects only the applicant who applied to the FAA for approval of the
features on the airplane.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 25

    Aircraft, Aviation safety, Reporting and recordkeeping
requirements.

Authority Citation

    The authority citation for these special conditions is as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 106(g), 40113, 44701, 44702, 44704.

The Special Conditions

    Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the following special conditions are issued as part of
the type certification basis for Textron Model 560XL airplanes, as
modified by Garmin, for airplane electronic-system security protection
from unauthorized external access.
    1. The applicant must ensure airplane electronic-system security
protection from access by unauthorized sources external to the
airplane, including those possibly caused by maintenance activity.
    2. The applicant must ensure that electronic-system security
threats are identified and assessed, and that effective electronic-
system security protection strategies are implemented to protect the
airplane from all adverse impacts on safety, functionality, and
continued airworthiness.
    3. The applicant must establish appropriate procedures to allow the
operator to ensure that continued airworthiness of the airplane is
maintained, including all post-type-certification modifications that
may have an impact on the approved electronic-system security
safeguards.

[Docket ID FEMA-2017-0002]

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final notice.

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

SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1-percent annual chance) Flood
Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundaries or zone designations, and/or regulatory floodways
(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard determinations) as shown on
the indicated Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) for each of the communities
listed in the table below are finalized. Each LOMR revises the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases the Flood Insurance
Study (FIS) reports, currently in effect for the listed communities.
The flood hazard determinations modified by each LOMR will be used to
calculate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and their
contents.

DATES: Each LOMR was finalized as in the table below.

ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for inspection at both the respective
Community Map Repository address listed in the table below and online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov.

eXchange (FMIX) online at www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard determinations as shown in the
LOMRs for each community listed in the table below. Notice of these
modified flood hazard determinations has been published in newspapers
of local circulation and 90 days have elapsed since that publication.
The Deputy Associate Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation has
resolved any appeals resulting from this notification.
    The modified flood hazard determinations are made pursuant to
section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4105, and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
    For rating purposes, the currently effective community number is
shown and must be used for all new policies and renewals.
    The new or modified flood hazard information is the basis for the
floodplain management measures that the community is required either to
adopt or to show evidence of being already in effect in order to remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
    This new or modified flood hazard information, together with the
floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum
that are required. They should not be construed to mean that the
community must change any existing ordinances that are more stringent
in their floodplain management requirements. The community may at any
time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies
established by other Federal, State, or regional entities.
    This new or modified flood hazard determinations are used to meet
the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and also are used to
calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new
buildings, and for the contents in those buildings. The changes in
flood hazard determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    Interested lessees and owners of real property are encouraged to
