[Docket No. FDA-2020-N-2047]

Rick Shepard: Final Debarment Order

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing an order
under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) debarring
Rick Shepard for a period of 5 years from importing or offering for
import any drug into the United States. FDA bases this order on a
finding that Mr. Shepard was convicted of one felony count under
Federal law for conspiracy to import and introduce misbranded drugs
into interstate commerce. The factual basis supporting Mr. Shepard's
conviction is conduct relating to the importation into the United
States of a drug or controlled substance. Mr. Shepard was given notice
of the proposed debarment and was given an opportunity to request a
hearing to show why he should not be debarred. As of February 14, 2021
(30 days after receipt of the notice), Mr. Shepard had not responded.
His failure to respond and request a hearing constitutes a waiver of
his right to a hearing concerning this matter.

DATES: This order is applicable May 14, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Submit applications for termination of debarment to the
Dockets Management Staff (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630
Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or at
https://www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Section 306(b)(1)(D) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 335a(b)(1)(D))
permits debarment of an individual from importing or offering for
import any drug into the United States if the FDA finds, as required by
section 306(b)(3)(C) of the FD&C, that the individual has been
convicted of a felony for conduct relating to the importation into the
United States of any drug or controlled substance. On September 14,
2020, Mr. Shepard was convicted, as defined in section 306(l)(1) of the
FD&C Act, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas, when
the court entered judgment against him for the offense of ``Conspiracy
to Import and Introducing Misbranded Drugs into Interstate Commerce, a
Class D Felony'' in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371.
    FDA's finding that debarment is appropriate is based on the felony
conviction referenced herein. The factual basis for this conviction is
as follows: As contained in the Plea Agreement in Mr. Shepard's case,
filed on January 27, 2020, Mr. Shepard owned, controlled, and operated
Epic Products, LLC (Epic), a Kansas Limited Liability Company, from
approximately October 2013 until at least April 2018. Epic was engaged
in wholesaling of products under the labeled name ``Euphoric'' that
were marketed as ``all-natural, herbal supplements for male
enhancement.'' Euphoric's label made no mention of tadalafil and
sildenafil citrate. However, Mr. Shepard knew that Euphoric contained
tadalafil and sildenafil citrate because he imported these drugs,
repacked them, and sold them under the Euphoric label. Specifically,
Mr. Shepard purchased in bulk from suppliers in China capsules
containing tadalafil and sildenafil citrate that he had delivered to
mail and packing stores on the east coast before forwarding them to his
address in Kansas.
    Sildenafil citrate is the active ingredient in Pfizer, Inc.'s FDA-
approved erectile dysfunction drug, VIAGRA. Likewise, tadalafil is the
active ingredient in Eli Lilly & Company's FDA-approved erectile
dysfunction drug, CIALIS. Once Mr. Shepard received the bulk capsules,
he repackaged them and applied his Euphoric label. Mr. Shepard then
sold these capsules in novelty stores in Kansas, Missouri, and
Colorado. Throughout this entire scheme, Mr. Shepard did not possess a
valid wholesale drug distribution license, a valid pharmacy license, or
a license to prescribe prescription drugs. Finally, from January 2012
to September 2017, Mr. Shepard deposited $1.8 million into his business
account.
    As a result of this conviction, FDA sent Mr. Shepard, by certified
mail on December 21, 2020, a notice proposing to debar him for a 5-year
period from importing or offering for import any drug into the United
States. The proposal was based on a finding, under section 306(b)(3)(C)
of the FD&C Act, that Mr. Shepard's felony conviction for one felony
count under Federal law, for the offense of ``Conspiracy to Import And
Introducing Misbranded Drugs into Interstate Commerce, a Class D
Felony,'' was for conduct relating to the importation into the United
States of any drug or controlled substance because he illegally
imported, repackaged, and introduced misbranded tadalafil and
sildenafil capsules into interstate commerce.
    In proposing a debarment period, FDA weighed the considerations set
forth in section 306(c)(3) of the FD&C Act that it considered
applicable to Mr. Shepard's offense and concluded that this felony
offense warranted the imposition of a 5-year period of debarment. The
proposal informed Mr. Shepard of the proposed debarment and offered him
an opportunity to request a hearing, providing him 30 days from the
date of receipt of the letter in which to file the request, and advised
him that failure to request a hearing constituted a waiver of the
opportunity for a hearing and of any contentions concerning this
action. Mr. Shepard received the proposal and notice of opportunity for
a hearing on January 15, 2021. He failed to request a hearing within
the timeframe prescribed by regulation and has, therefore, waived his
opportunity for a hearing and waived any contentions concerning his
debarment (21 CFR part 12).

II. Findings and Order

    Therefore, the Assistant Commissioner, Office of Human and Animal
Food Operations, under section

306(b)(3)(C) of the FD&C Act, under authority delegated to the
Assistant Commissioner, finds that Mr. Rick Shepard has been convicted
of a felony under Federal law for conduct relating to the importation
into the United States of any drug or controlled substance. FDA finds
that the offense should be accorded a debarment period of 5 years as
provided by section 306(c)(2)(A)(iii) of the FD&C Act.
    As a result of the foregoing finding, Mr. Shepard is debarred for a
period of 5 years from importing or offering for import any drug into
the United States, effective (see DATES). Pursuant to section 301(cc)
of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 331(cc)), the importing or offering for
import into the United States of any drug or controlled substance by,
with the assistance of, or at the direction of Mr. Shepard is a
prohibited act.
    Any application by Mr. Shepard for termination of debarment under
section 306(d)(1) of the FD&C Act should be identified with Docket No.
FDA-2020-N-2047 and sent to the Dockets Management Staff (see
ADDRESSES). The public availability of information in these submissions
is governed by 21 CFR 10.20(j).
    Publicly available submissions will be placed in the docket and
will be viewable at https://www.regulations.gov or at the Dockets
Management Staff (see ADDRESSES) between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday
through Friday,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

MEMORANDUM

TO:		Board of Environmental Protection

FROM:	Jeffrey S. Crawford, Bureau of Air Quality

DATE:	March 6, 2008

RE:	State Implementation Plan (SIP) Submittals- Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)
Plan Adoption.

************************************************************************
******

Statutory and Regulatory Reference:

	A.	Statutory authority.

38 MRSA Section 585-A provides that the Board of Environmental
Protection "may establish and amend regulations to implement ambient air
quality standards and emission standards.  These regulations shall be
designed to achieve and maintain ambient air quality standards and
emission standards within any region and prevent air pollution."

 Section 107(a) of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAA) provides that
“Each State shall have the primary responsibility for assuring air
quality within the entire geographic area comprising such State by
submitting an implementation plan for such State which will specify the
manner in which national ambient primary and secondary ambient air
quality standards will be achieved and maintained within each air
quality control region in such State."

Section 110 of the CAA provides that each state shall, after reasonable
notice and public hearing, adopt and submit a plan which provides for
the implementation, maintenance and enforcement of national ambient air
quality standards.  This plan, known as a State Implementation Plan
(SIP) consists of the regulations and planning documents a state has
developed to meet these air quality standards.  As the rulemaking body
of the Department of Environmental Protection, the Board may hold public
hearings, and has traditionally been responsible for approving
non-regulatory SIP submittals.

	B.	Specific legal mandates requiring adoption.

Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) of the CAA requires each state to adopt a SIP
within three years after promulgation of a national ambient air quality
standard (NAAQS) containing adequate provisions:

Prohibiting, consistent with the provisions of this title, any source or
other type of emissions activity within the State from emitting any air
pollutant in amounts which will

contribute significantly to nonattainment in, or interfere with
maintenance by, any other State with respect to any such national
ambient air quality standard, or

interfere with measures required to be included in the applicable
implementation plan for any other State under part C to prevent
significant deterioration of air quality or to protect visibility.

Location/Applicability:

The proposed SIP amendments apply statewide.

Description:

On July 16, 1997, EPA issued updated final air quality standards for
8-hour ozone and PM2.5.    Due to litigation, there were significant
delays in the implementation of the new standards and associated
planning efforts by both EPA and the states, including section
110(a)(2)(D)(i) submittals.  On April 25, 2005, EPA published a finding
that States had failed to make the required section 110(a)(2)(D)(i) SIP
submissions pertaining to the interstate transport of ozone and PM2.5.
The finding of failure to submit action requires EPA to issue a final
Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) to meet the requirements of section
100(a)(2)(D)(i) for both the 8-hour ozone and PM2.5 standards unless EPA
approves a state SIP submission to meet those requirements.

Using air quality data analysis techniques and air quality modeling
conducted by EPA in support of the Clean Air Interstate Rule, this SIP
revision demonstrates that emissions from Maine do not contribute
significantly to other state’s nonattainment or interfere with
maintenance of the 8-hour ozone or PM2.5 NAAQS, or otherwise interfere
with visibility protection or other state’s efforts to prevent
significant deterioration of air quality.

On December 6, 2007, the Board posted the proposed SIP amendments to a
30-day public comment period, with an opportunity to request a public
hearing.  The Department did not receive any comments or requests to
hold a public hearing on this proposal.

Environmental Issues:

Ground level ozone is responsible for exacerbating a variety of
respiratory ailments, such as asthma.  Although children, the elderly
and those with respiratory problems are most at risk, even healthy
individuals may experience increased respiratory ailments and other
symptoms when they are exposed to ambient ozone while engaged in
activity that involves physical exertion.  Though these symptoms are
often temporary, repeated exposure could result in permanent lung
damage.

Fine particulates, or PM2.5,  also pose a significant public health
threat, with health effects including premature death and increased
hospital admissions and emergency room visits (primarily the elderly and
individuals with cardiopulmonary disease); increased respiratory
symptoms and disease (children and individuals with cardiopulmonary
disease such as asthma); decreased lung function (particularly in
children and individuals with asthma); and alterations in lung tissue
and structure and in respiratory tract defense mechanisms.

Departmental Recommendation:

The Department recommends that the Board adopt the proposed SIP
amendments as submitted.

Estimated Time of Presentation:

10 minutes.

 Particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 microns.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-78143; File No. SR-CFE-2016-002]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; CBOE Futures Exchange, LLC; Notice
of Proposed Rule Change To Make Clarifying Updates to Prohibited
Disruptive Trading Practices

June 23, 2016.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(7) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

(``Act''),\1\ notice is hereby given that on May 31, 2016 CBOE Futures
Exchange, LLC (``CFE'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (``SEC'' or ``Commission'') the proposed rule
change described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been
prepared by CFE. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. CFE also
has filed this proposed rule change with the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (``CFTC''). CFE filed a written certification with the CFTC
under Section 5c(c) of the Commodity Exchange Act (``CEA'') \2\ on May
27, 2016.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(7).
    \2\ 7 U.S.C. 7a-2(c).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Description of the Proposed Rule
Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend its rule provisions related to
disruptive trading practices. The scope of this filing is limited
solely to the application of the rule amendments to security futures
traded on CFE. The only security futures that have been offered for
trading on CFE were traded under Chapter 16 of CFE's Rulebook, which is
applicable to Individual Stock Based and Exchange-Traded Fund Based
Volatility Index security futures. CFE does not currently list any
security futures for trading. The text of the proposed rule change is
attached as Exhibit 4 to the filing but is not attached to the
publication of this notice.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    CFE Rule 620 (Disruptive Trading Practices) prohibits various
disruptive trading practices and CFE Policy and Procedure XVIII of the
Policies and Procedures section of the CFE Rulebook lists various
factors that CFE may consider in assessing whether conduct violates
Rule 620. The proposed rule change proposes clarifying updates in
relation to these provisions with respect to security futures. These
rule amendments will also apply to all other products traded on CFE.
List of Rules Applicable to Market Participants Subject to CFE
Jurisdiction
    CFE Rule 308(d) sets forth the list of rules which are applicable
to market participants that are not CFE Trading Privilege Holders
(``TPHs'') or related parties of TPHs and are subject to CFE
jurisdiction under CFE Rule 308 (Consent to Exchange Jurisdiction). The
proposed rule change adds Policy and Procedure XVIII to the list of
rules that already apply to these market participants. This is a
clarifying change since Rule 620 is one of the rules listed in Rule
308(d) and Policy and Procedure XVIII simply describes how CFE applies
Rule 620.
Submission of Trade at Settlement Orders
    Policy and Procedure XVIII currently provides guidance on
prohibited disruptive trading practices. The proposed rule change adds
reference to an existing prohibition under CFE Rule 404A(c) as an
example of conduct that could also violate Rule 620. Rule 404A(c)
provides that during the time period between business days for a CFE
contract, entry into CFE's trading system of a Trade at Settlement
order in that contract prior to the time at which CFE's trading system
disseminates the pre-opening notice for that contract is prohibited.
Bona Fide Orders That Also Serve a Risk Management Purpose
    Additionally, the amendment clarifies that a market participant is
not precluded from entering a bona fide order that is intended to be
executed where that execution may also serve some other risk management
purpose, such as verifying the flow of the executed trades through the
market participant's back-office systems.
    The proposed rule change is consistent with similar updated
guidance provided by other designated contract markets (``DCMs'')
regarding disruptive practices.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ These DCMs are Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Inc. (``CME''),
The Board of Trade of the City of Chicago, Inc., New York Mercantile
Exchange, Inc., and Commodity Exchange, Inc. Each submitted self-
certification rule filings to the CFTC pursuant to CFTC Regulation
Sec.  40.6(a) to effectuate their respective updated guidance. See,
e.g., CME Submission No. 15-436 (October 8, 2015), which is
available on the CFTC's Web site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\4\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Sections 6(b)(5) \5\ and 6(b)(7) \6\ in particular in
that it is designed:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(7).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     To prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices;
     to promote just and equitable principles of trade; and
     to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and a national market system, and in general, to
protect investors and the public interest.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change will benefit
market participants because it will provide greater clarity regarding
the Exchange's current prohibited disruptive trading practices and the
various factors that CFE may consider in assessing whether conduct
violates Rule 620. Additionally, the Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change will strengthen its ability to carry out its
responsibilities as a self-regulatory organization by providing further
guidance regarding the type of activity that is prohibited under CFE
Rule 620. In addition, the proposed rule change benefits market
participants by contributing to the protection of CFE's market and
market participants from abusive practices and to the promotion of a
fair and orderly market.

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

    CFE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act. Specifically, the Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change will not burden competition because the new
clarifying updates to the prohibited disruptive trading practices will
apply equally to all market participants and will help to foster a fair
and orderly market. Additionally, the proposed rule change is designed
to make CFE's disruptive trading practice rules consistent with the
existing rules and guidance published by other DCMs.

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

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

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

    The proposed rule change will become effective on June 13, 2016.
    At any time within 60 days of the date of effectiveness of the
proposed rule change, the Commission, after consultation with the CFTC,
may summarily abrogate the proposed rule change and require that the
proposed rule change be refiled in accordance with the provisions of
Section 19(b)(1) of the Act.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).

IV. Solicitation of Comments

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

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Food and Drug Administration

[Docket No. FDA-2008-N-0453]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Regulations Under the Federal Import Milk Act

AGENCY:  Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:  Notice.

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

SUMMARY:  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain
information by the agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(the PRA), Federal agencies are required to publish notice in the
Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements of FDA's regulations implementing the
Federal Import Milk Act (FIMA).

DATES:  Submit written or electronic comments on the collection of
information by October 24, 2008.

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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonna Capezzuto, Office of Information
Management (HFA-710), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane,
Rockville, MD 20857,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection
of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Regulations Under the Federal Import Milk Act--21 CFR Part 1210 (OMB
Control Number 0910-0212)--Extension

    Under FIMA (21 U.S.C. 141-149), milk or cream may be imported into
the United States only by the holder of a valid import milk permit (21
U.S.C. 141). Before such permit is issued: (1) All cows from which
import milk or cream is produced must be physically examined and found
healthy; (2) if the milk or cream is imported raw, all such cows must
pass a tuberculin test; (3) the dairy farm and each plant in which the
milk or cream is processed or handled must be inspected and found to
meet certain sanitary requirements; (4) bacterial counts of the milk at
the time of importation must not exceed specified limits; and (5) the
temperature of the milk or cream at time of importation must not exceed
50[deg] F (21 U.S.C. 142).
    FDA's regulations in part 1210 (21 CFR part 1210) implement the
provisions of FIMA. Sections 1210.11 and 1210.14 require reports on the
sanitary conditions of, respectively, dairy farms and plants producing
milk and/or cream to be shipped to the United States. Section 1210.12
requires reports on the physical examination of herds, while Sec.
1210.13 requires the reporting of tuberculin testing of the herds. In
addition, the regulations in part 1210 require that dairy farmers and
plants maintain pasteurization records (Sec.  1210.15) and that each
container of milk or cream imported into the United States bear a tag
with the product type, permit number, and shipper's name and address
(Sec.  1210.22). Section 1210.20 requires that an application for a
permit to ship or transport milk or cream into the United States be
made by the actual shipper. Section 1210.23 allows permits to be
granted based on certificates from accredited officials.

    The estimated number of respondents and hours per response are
based on FDA's experience with the import milk permit program and the
average number of import milk permit holders over the past 3 years. FDA
estimates that eight respondents will submit approximately 200 Form FDA
1996 reports annually, for a total of 1,600 responses. FDA estimates
the reporting burden to be 1.5 hours per response, for a total burden
of 2,400 hours.
    The Secretary of Health and Human Services has the discretion to
allow Form FDA 1815, a duly certified statement signed by an accredited
official of a foreign government, to be submitted in lieu of Forms FDA
1994 and 1995. To date, Form FDA 1815 has been submitted in lieu of
these forms. Because FDA has not received any Forms FDA 1994 and 1995
in the last 3 years, the agency estimates no more than one will be
submitted annually. FDA estimates the reporting burden for each to be
0.5 hours per response for a total burden reporting burden of 0.5 hours
each.
    FDA estimates that eight respondents will submit one Form FDA 1997
report annually, for a total of eight responses. FDA estimates the
reporting burden to be 2.0 hours per response, for a total burden of 16
hours. FDA estimates that eight respondents will submit one Form FDA
1993 report annually, for a total of eight responses. FDA estimates the
reporting burden to be 0.5 hours per response, for a total burden of 4
hours. FDA estimates that eight respondents will submit one Form FDA
1815 report annually, for a total of eight responses. FDA estimates the
reporting burden to be 0.5 hours per response, for a total burden of 4
hours.
    With regard to records maintenance, FDA estimates that
approximately eight recordkeepers will spend 0.05 hours annually
maintaining the additional pasteurization records required by Sec.
1210.15, for a total of 0.40 hours annually.
    No burden has been estimated for the tagging requirement in Sec.
1210.22 because the information on the tag is either supplied by FDA
(permit number) or is disclosed to third parties as a usual and
customary part of the shipper's normal business activities (type of
product, shipper's name and address). Under 5 CFR 1320.3(c)(2), the
public disclosure of information originally supplied by the Federal
Government to the recipient for the purpose of disclosure to the public
is not a collection of information. Under 5 CFR 1320.3(b)(2)), the
time, effort, and financial resources necessary to comply with a
collection of information are excluded from the burden estimate if the
reporting, recordkeeping, or disclosure activities needed to comply are
usual and customary because they would occur in the normal course of
activities.
    Please note that on January 15, 2008, the FDA Division of Dockets
Management Web site transitioned to the Federal Dockets Management
System (FDMS). FDMS is a Government-wide, electronic docket management
system. Electronic comments or submissions will be accepted by FDA only
through FDMS at http://www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard will enforce the special
local

regulation for the annual Seattle Seafair Unlimited Hydroplane Race in
33 CFR 100.1301 from 8 a.m. on August 4, 2011 through 11:59 p.m. on
August 7, 2011.
    Under the provisions of 33 CFR 100.1301, the Coast Guard will
restrict general navigation in the following area; the waters of Lake
Washington bounded by the Interstate 90 (Mercer Island/Lacey V. Murrow)
Bridge, the western shore of Lake Washington, and the east/west line
drawn tangent to Bailey Peninsula and along the shoreline of Mercer
Island.
    The regulated area has been divided into two zones. The zones are
separated by a line perpendicular from the I-90 Bridge to the northwest
corner of the East log boom and a line extending from the southeast
corner of the East log boom to the southeast corner of the hydroplane
race course and then to the northerly tip of Ohlers Island in Andrews
Bay. The western zone is designated Zone I, the eastern zone, Zone II.
(Refer to NOAA Chart 18447).
    The Coast Guard will maintain a patrol consisting of Coast Guard
vessels, assisted by Auxiliary Coast Guard vessels, in Zone II. The
Coast Guard patrol of this area is under the direction of the Coast
Guard Patrol Commander (the ``Patrol Commander''). The Patrol Commander
is empowered to control the movement of vessels on the racecourse and
in the adjoining waters during the periods this regulation is in
effect. The Patrol Commander may be assisted by other federal, state
and local law enforcement agencies.
    Only authorized vessels may be allowed to enter Zone I during the
hours this regulation is in effect. Vessels in the vicinity of Zone I
shall maneuver and anchor as directed by Coast Guard Officers or Petty
Officers.
    During the times in which this regulation is in effect, the
following rules shall apply:
    (1) Swimming, wading, or otherwise entering the water in Zone I by
any person is prohibited while hydroplane boats are on the racecourse.
At other times in Zone I, any person entering the water from the
shoreline shall remain west of the swim line, denoted by buoys, and any
person entering the water from the log boom shall remain within ten
(10) feet of the log boom.
    (2) Any person swimming or otherwise entering the water in Zone II
shall remain within ten (10) feet of a vessel.
    (3) Rafting to a log boom will be limited to groups of three
vessels.
    (4) Up to six (6) vessels may raft together in Zone II if none of
the vessels are secured to a log boom. Only vessels authorized by the
Patrol Commander, other law enforcement agencies or event sponsors
shall be permitted to tow other watercraft or inflatable devices.
    (5) Vessels proceeding in either Zone I or Zone II during the hours
this regulation is in effect shall do so only at speeds which will
create minimum wake, seven (07) miles per hour or less. This maximum
speed may be reduced at the discretion of the Patrol Commander.
    (6) Upon completion of the daily racing activities, all vessels
leaving either Zone I or Zone II shall proceed at speeds of seven (07)
miles per hour or less. The maximum speed may be reduced at the
discretion of the Patrol Commander.
    (7) A succession of sharp, short signals by whistle or horn from
vessels patrolling the areas under the direction of the Patrol
Commander shall serve as signal to stop. Vessels signaled shall stop
and shall comply with the orders of the patrol vessel; failure to do so
may result in expulsion from the area, citation for failure to comply,
or both.
    The Coast Guard may be assisted by other Federal, State, or local
law enforcement agencies in enforcing this regulation.
    This notice is issued under authority of 33 CFR 100.1301 and 5
U.S.C. 552(a). If the Captain of the Port determines that the regulated
area need not be enforced for the full duration stated in this notice,
he or she may use a Broadcast Notice to Mariners to grant general
permission to enter the regulated area.

    Dated: May 25, 2011.

________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________

This serves as notice to the public of the action described below, taken
by the Department official indicated (no additional confirming order
will be issued in this matter).

Application of    Polar Air Cargo, Inc.      filed   6/9/2004  to:

XX Renew for two years and amend exemption under 49 U.S.C. 40109 to
provide the following service:

Scheduled foreign air transportation of property and mail between points
in the United States, and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, via Prestwick, Scotland,
and Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and beyond Saudi Arabia to Johannesburg,
South Africa; Harare, Zimbabwe; and Nairobi, Kenya, and to integrate its
Saudi Arabia authority with its existing exemption and certificate
authority.

Applicant rep:   Kevin P. Montgomery<PHONE_NUMBER>    DOT Analyst:
Gerald Caolo<PHONE_NUMBER>

D I S P O S I T I O N

XX  Granted (subject to conditions, see below)

The above action was effective when taken:  August 18, 2004, through
August 18, 2006

Action taken by:   Paul L. Gretch, Director

		    Office of International Aviation

XX  The authority granted is consistent with the aviation agreements
between the United States and Saudi Arabia, between the United States
and the United Kingdom, between the United States and the Netherlands,
between the United States and South Africa, and with the overall state
of aviation relations between the United States and Zimbabwe and between
the United States and Kenya.

Except to the extent exempted or waived, this authority is subject to
the terms, conditions, and limitations indicated:  XX  Holder’s
certificates of public convenience and necessity

	   XX  Standard exemption conditions (attached)

________________________

Remarks: The authority for which Polar Air Cargo requested renewal
expired August 15, 2004, but had been kept in force pursuant to the
provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 558(c), as
implemented by 14 CFR Part 377, pending action on its timely-filed
renewal application.

Conditions:  The route integration authority granted is subject to the
condition that any service provided

under this exemption shall be consistent with all applicable agreements
between the United States and the foreign countries involved.
Furthermore, (a) nothing in the award of the route integration authority
requested should be construed as conferring upon Polar rights (including
fifth-freedom intermediate and/or beyond rights) to serve markets where
U.S. carrier entry is limited unless Polar notifies the Department of
its intent to serve such a market and unless and until the Department
has completed any necessary carrier selection procedures to determine
which carrier(s) should be authorized to exercise such rights; and

(b) should there be a request by any carrier to use the limited-entry
route rights that are included in Polar’s authority by virtue of the
route integration exemption granted here, but that are not then being
used by Polar, the holding of such authority by route integration will
not be considered as providing any preference for Polar in a competitive
carrier selection proceeding to determine which carrier(s) should be
entitled to use the authority at issue.

________________________________________________________________________
____________

On the basis of data officially noticeable under Rule 24(g) of the
Department's regulations, we found the applicant qualified to provide
the services authorized.

Under authority assigned by the Department in its regulations, 14 CFR
Part 385, we found that

(1) our action was consistent with Department policy; (2) grant of the
exemption authority was consistent with the public interest; and (3)
grant of the authority would not constitute a major regulatory action
under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975.  To the extent not
granted, we denied all requests in the referenced Docket.  We may amend,
modify, or revoke the authority granted in this Notice at any time
without hearing at our discretion.

Persons entitled to petition the Department for review of the action set
forth in this Notice under the Department’s regulations, 14 CFR
§385.30, may file their petitions within seven (7) days after the date
of issuance of this Notice.  This action was effective when taken, and
the filing of a petition for review will not alter such effectiveness.

(7)  Comply with such other reasonable terms, conditions, and
limitations required by the public interest as may be prescribed by the
Department of Transportation, with all applicable orders and regulations
of other U.S. agencies and courts, and with all applicable laws of the
