DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. RD16-2-000]

Proposed Agency Information Collection

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Energy.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) invites
public comment in Docket No. RD16-2-000 on a proposed change to
collections of information (FERC-725P and FERC-725P1) that the
Commission is developing for submission to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. Comments
are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the
accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology
and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

DATES: Comments regarding this proposed information collection must be
received on or before March 7, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Comments, identified by docket number, may be filed in the
following ways:
     Electronic Filing through http://www.ferc.gov. Documents
created electronically using word processing software should be filed
in native applications or print-to-PDF format and not in a scanned
format.
     Mail/Hand Delivery: Those unable to file electronically
may mail or hand-deliver an original of their comments to: Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, Secretary of the Commission, 888 First
Street NE., Washington, DC 20426.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ellen Brown may be reached by email at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, and fax at (202)
273-0873.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission will submit the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements of Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 to OMB for
review. Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 replaces or supplements
requirements from previous versions of the PRC-005 Reliability
Standard, which are approved under FERC-725P (Mandatory Reliability
Standards: Reliability Standard PRC-005-3, OMB Control No. 1902-0269)
and FERC-725P1 (Mandatory Reliability Standards, PRC-005-4 Reliability
Standard, OMB Control No. 1902-0280). The requirements and associated
burden of Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 will be included in FERC-
725P1.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In the future, to consolidate reporting requirements
associated with the PRC Standards, the Commission plans to transfer
the burden associated with Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 to FERC-
725G (OMB Control No. 1902-0252) and removed from FERC-725P and
FERC-725P1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Type of Request: Three-year extension of the FERC-725P1 information
collection requirements with the stated changes to the current
reporting and record retention requirements, and reduction to the
requirements of FERC-725P.
    Abstract: The Commission requires the information collected by the
FERC-725P1 to implement the statutory provisions of section 215 of the
Federal Power Act (FPA).\2\ On August 8, 2005, Congress enacted into
law the Electricity Modernization Act of 2005, which is Title XII,
Subtitle A, of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005).\3\ EPAct
2005 added a new section 215 to the FPA, which required a Commission-
certified Electric Reliability Organization (ERO) to develop mandatory
and enforceable Reliability Standards, which are subject to Commission
review and approval. Once approved, the Reliability Standards may be
enforced by the ERO subject to Commission oversight, or the Commission
can independently enforce Reliability Standards.\4\

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

    On February 3, 2006, the Commission issued Order No. 672,
implementing section 215 of the FPA.\5\ Pursuant to Order No. 672, the
Commission certified one organization, North American Electric
Reliability Corporation (NERC), as the ERO.\6\ The Reliability
Standards developed by the ERO and approved by the Commission apply to
users, owners and operators of the Bulk-Power System as set forth in
each Reliability Standard.

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

    On November 13, 2015, the North American Electric Reliability
Corporation (NERC) filed a petition for Commission approval of proposed
Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 (Protection System, Automatic Reclosing,
and Sudden Pressure Relaying Maintenance). NERC also requested approval
of the proposed implementation plan for PRC-005-6, and the retirement
of previous versions of Reliability Standard PRC-005. NERC explained in
its petition that Reliability Standard PRC-005-6 represents an
improvement upon the most recently-approved version of the standard,
PRC-005-4.\7\ FERC approved the proposed Reliability Standard PRC-005-6
on December 18, 2015.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ As noted in NERC's petition, NERC filed a separate motion to
delay implementation of the approved, but not yet effective,
versions of the PRC-005 Reliability Standard in Docket Nos. RM14-8-
000 (PRC-005-3), RD15-3-000 (PRC-005-3(i)), and RM15-9-000 (PRC-005-
4) until after the Commission issues an order or rule regarding
proposed PRC-005-6. NERC's motion was granted in a delegated letter
order issued December 4, 2015. See North American Elec. Reliability
Corp., Docket Nos. RM14-8-000 et al. (Dec. 4, 2015) (delegated
letter order).

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-62122; File No. SR-EDGA-2010-01]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; EDGA Exchange, Inc.; Notice of
Filing of Proposed Rule Change To Amend EDGA Rule 11.14, Entitled
``Trading Halts Due to Extraordinary Market Volatility''

May 19, 2010.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given
that on May 19, 2010, EDGA Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or
``EDGA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and
II below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange is proposing to amend EDGA Rule 11.14, entitled
``Trading Halts Due to Extraordinary Market Volatility.''
    The text of the proposed rule change is available at the Exchange's
Web site at http://www.directedge.com, at the principal office of the
Exchange, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange 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. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant parts of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The primary listing markets for U.S. stocks are in the process of
amending their rules so that they may, from time to time, issue a
trading pause for an individual security if the price of such security
moves 10% or more from a sale in a preceding five-minute period. The
Exchange is proposing the rule change described below in consultation
with other markets and Commission staff to provide for uniform market-
wide trading pause standards for individual securities in the S&P
500[supreg] Index that experience rapid price movement, as set forth
below. The Exchange is not currently the primary listing market for any
securities, and thus, will not be issuing any trading pauses pursuant
to its rules.
    The Exchange proposes to add a new paragraph to EDGA Rule 11.14 to
allow

the Exchange to pause trading in an individual stock when the primary
listing market for such stock issues a trading pause in any Circuit
Breaker Securities, as defined below and in proposed Interpretation and
Policy .05 of Rule 11.14. If, however, trading has not resumed on the
primary listing market and ten minutes have passed since the individual
stock trading pause message has been received from the responsible
single plan processor, the Exchange may resume trading in such stock.
    The proposed rule would apply to trading pauses issued by primary
listing markets in ``Circuit Breaker Securities'', as defined in
proposed Interpretation and Policy .05. Specifically, on a pilot basis,
set to end on December 10, 2010, Circuit Breaker Securities would mean
the securities included in the S&P 500[supreg] Index.
    In addition to adding a new paragraph to Rule 11.14 as paragraph
(d), and renaming existing paragraph (d) as paragraph (e), the Exchange
has also proposed minor changes to Rule 11.14. To make clear that the
existing trading halt described in Rule 11.14 applies to all stocks
traded on the Exchange, the Exchange has added the word ``all'' to the
text of paragraphs (a) and (b) of Rule 11.14. Finally, the Exchange has
proposed certain minor changes to the references in its rules,
specifically: (1) Deleting references to the number of the Rule to
avoid inaccurate cross-references in the event there are other changes
to the Exchange's Rules; and (2) renaming sections .01 to .04 and
proposed section .05 of the Rule as ``Interpretations and Policies''
rather than ``Commentary'' to be consistent with the rest of the
Exchange's rules.
2. Statutory Basis
    Approval of the rule change proposed in this submission is
consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder that are applicable to a national securities
exchange, and, in particular, with the requirements of Section 6(b) of
the Act.\3\ In particular, the proposed change is consistent with
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\4\ because it would promote just and
equitable principles of trade, remove impediments to, and perfect the
mechanism of, a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, protect investors and the public interest. The proposed
rule change is also designed to support the principles of Section
11A(a)(1) \5\ of the Act in that it seeks to assure fair competition
among brokers and dealers and among exchange markets. The Exchange
believes that the proposed rule meets these requirements in that it
promotes transparency and uniformity across markets concerning
decisions to pause trading in a security when there are significant
price movements.

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change imposes
any burden on competition.

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

    The Exchange has neither solicited nor received written comments on
the proposed rule change.

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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve the proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Commission notes that the Exchange has requested
accelerated approval of the filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 Exchange Act. Comments may be submitted
by any of the following methods:

Electronic Comments

reasonable, given the urgency of the matter. It will provide
adequate time for comment.

II. Background

    In the Federal Register of July 25, 2012 (77 FR 43562) (FRL-9353-
6), the EPA issued a document pursuant to FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 21
U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of a pesticide tolerance
petition (PP 2F8014) by Vestaron Corporation, 4717 Campus Drive, Ste.
1200, Kalamazoo, MI 49008. The petition requested that 40 CFR part 180
be amended by establishing an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance for residues of GS-omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a. That document
referenced a summary of the petition prepared by the petitioner
Vestaron Corporation, which is available in the docket, http://www.regulations.gov. No comments to the petition for GS-U-ACTX-Hv1a-
SEQ2 tolerance exemption were received. A correction for the name of
the active ingredient was published in the Federal Register of December
18, 2013 (78 FR 76589) (FRL-9904-17). The active ingredient, previously
known as GS-U-ACTX-Hv1a-SEQ2, was revised to GS-omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a,
based on acceptable nomenclature for naming peptide toxins from
spiders.

III. Final Rule

A. The EPA's Safety Determination

    Section 408(c)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows the EPA to establish an
exemption from the requirement for a tolerance (the legal limit for a
pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only if the EPA determines
that the exemption is ``safe.'' Section 408(c)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA
defines ``safe'' to mean that ``there is a reasonable certainty that no
harm will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical
residue, including all anticipated dietary exposures and all other
exposures for which there is reliable information.'' This includes
exposure through drinking water and in residential settings, but does
not include occupational exposure. Pursuant to FFDCA section
408(c)(2)(B), in establishing or maintaining in effect an exemption
from the requirement of a tolerance, the EPA must take into account the
factors set forth in FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(C), which require the EPA
to give special consideration to exposure of infants and children to
the pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to
``ensure that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result
to infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide
chemical residue. . . .'' Additionally, FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(D)
requires that the Agency consider ``available information concerning
the cumulative effects of (a particular pesticide's) residues . . . and
other substances that have a common mechanism of toxicity.''
    The EPA evaluated the available toxicity and exposure data on GS-
omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a and considered its validity, completeness, and
reliability, as well as the relationship of this information to human
risk. Based upon that evaluation, the EPA concludes that there is a
reasonable certainty that no harm will result to the U.S. population,
including infants and children, from aggregate exposure to residues of
GS-omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a. Therefore, an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance is established for residues of GS-omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a
in or on all food commodities when applied or used in accordance with
label directions and good agricultural practices. A full explanation of
the data upon which the EPA relied and its risk assessment based on
that data can be found within the November 21, 2013 document entitled
``Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) Considerations for GS-
omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a.'' This document, as well as other relevant
information, is available in the docket for this action as described
under ADDRESSES.

B. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

    An analytical method is not required for enforcement purposes since
the Agency is establishing an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance without any numerical limitation.

C. International Residue Limits

    In making its tolerance decisions, the EPA seeks to harmonize U.S.
tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent
with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. The EPA
considers the international maximum residue limits (MRLs) established
by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as required by FFDCA
section 408(b)(4). The Codex Alimentarius is a joint United Nations
Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization food
standards program, and it is recognized as an international food safety
standards-setting organization in trade agreements to which the United
States is a party. The EPA may establish a tolerance that is different
from a Codex MRL; however, FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that the
EPA explain the reasons for departing from the Codex level.
    The Codex has not established a MRL for GS-omega/kappa-Hxtx-Hv1a.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This final rule establishes a tolerance under FFDCA section 408(d)
in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from
review under Executive Order 12866, entitled ``Regulatory Planning and
Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this final rule has
been exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this final rule
is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled ``Actions Concerning
Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or
Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled
``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This final rule does not contain
any information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., nor does it require any
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled ``Federal
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations'' (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis
of a petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the tolerance in this
final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.), do not apply.
    This final rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food
handlers, and food retailers, not States or tribes, nor does this
action alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions
of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that
this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or
tribal governments, on the relationship between the national government
and the States or tribal governments, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between
the Federal Government and Indian Tribes. Thus, the Agency has
determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR
43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled
``Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this final rule. In addition,
this final rule does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any
unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).
    This action does not involve any technical standards that would
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

V. Congressional Review Act

    Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.),
the EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required
information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and
the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of
the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule''
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

[Docket No. FDA-2019-P-0372]

Determination That MIOCHOL (Acetylcholine Chloride Intraocular
Solution), 20 Milligrams/Vial, Was Not Withdrawn From Sale for Reasons
of Safety or Effectiveness

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) has
determined that MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular solution),
20 milligrams (mg)/vial, was not withdrawn from sale for reasons of
safety or effectiveness. This determination will allow FDA to approve
abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) for acetylcholine chloride
intraocular solution, 20 mg/vial, if all other legal and regulatory
requirements are met.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Meadow Platt, Center for Drug
Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New
Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 51, Rm. 6224, Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-
796-1830.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1984, Congress enacted the Drug Price
Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. L. 98-417)
(the 1984 amendments), which authorized the approval of duplicate
versions of drug products under an ANDA procedure. ANDA applicants
must, with certain exceptions, show that the drug for which they are
seeking approval contains the same active ingredient in the same
strength and dosage form as the ``listed drug,'' which is a version of
the drug that was previously approved. ANDA applicants

do not have to repeat the clinical testing otherwise necessary to gain
approval of a new drug application (NDA).
    The 1984 amendments include what is now section 505(j)(7) of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(7)), which
requires FDA to publish a list of all approved drugs. FDA publishes
this list as part of the ``Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic
Equivalence Evaluations,'' which is known generally as the ``Orange
Book.'' Under FDA regulations, drugs are removed from the list if the
Agency withdraws or suspends approval of the drug's NDA or ANDA for
reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed
drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21
CFR 314.162).
    A person may petition the Agency to determine, or the Agency may
determine on its own initiative, whether a listed drug was withdrawn
from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination
may be made at any time after the drug has been withdrawn from sale,
but must be made prior to approving an ANDA that refers to the listed
drug (Sec.  314.161 (21 CFR 314.161)). FDA may not approve an ANDA that
does not refer to a listed drug.
    MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular solution), 20 mg/vial,
is the subject of NDA 016211, held by Novartis Pharmaceutical
Corporation (Novartis). MIOCHOL is indicated to obtain complete miosis
of the iris in seconds after delivery of the lens in cataract surgery,
in penetrating keratoplasty, iridectomy, and other anterior segment
surgery where rapid, complete miosis may be required.
    In a letter dated January 18, 2006, Novartis requested withdrawal
of NDA 016211 for MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular
solution). In the Federal Register of July 12, 2018 (83 FR 32305), FDA
announced that it was withdrawing approval of NDA 016211, effective
August 13, 2018.
    Hyman, Phelps & McNamara, P.C., submitted a citizen petition dated
January 23, 2019, under 21 CFR 10.30, requesting that the Agency
determine whether MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular
solution), 20 mg/vial, was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or
effectiveness.
    After considering the citizen petition and reviewing Agency records
and based on the information we have at this time, FDA has determined
under Sec.  314.161 that MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular
solution), 20 mg/vial, was not withdrawn for reasons of safety or
effectiveness. The petitioner has identified no data or other
information suggesting that MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride intraocular
solution), 20 mg/vial, was withdrawn for reasons of safety or
effectiveness. We have carefully reviewed our files for records
concerning the withdrawal of MIOCHOL (acetylcholine chloride
intraocular solution), 20 mg/vial, from sale. We have also
independently evaluated relevant literature and data for possible
postmarketing adverse events. We have reviewed the available evidence
and determined that this drug product was not withdrawn from sale for
reasons of safety or effectiveness.
    Accordingly, the Agency will continue to list MIOCHOL
(acetylcholine chloride intraocular solution), 20 mg/vial, in the
``Discontinued Drug Product List'' section of the Orange Book. The
``Discontinued Drug Product List'' delineates, among other items, drug
products that have been discontinued from marketing for reasons other
than safety or effectiveness. ANDAs that refer to MIOCHOL
(acetylcholine chloride intraocular solution), 20 mg/vial, may be
approved by the Agency as long as they meet all other legal and
regulatory requirements for the approval of ANDAs. If FDA determines
that labeling for this drug product should be revised to meet current
standards, the Agency will advise ANDA applicants to submit such
labeling.

    Dated: July 9, 2019.

Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.

											2

Conditions:  The U.S.-Mexico exemption authority granted to Delta is
subject to the dormancy notice requirements set forth in condition 7 of
Appendix A of Order 88-10-2.  The exemption authority granted to Delta
is limited to services provided on a code-share basis only.

The code-share operations authorized are subject to the following
conditions:

 The statement of authorization will remain in effect only as long as
(i) Delta and Aeromexico continue to hold the necessary underlying
authority to operate the code-share services at issue, and (ii) the
code-share agreement providing for the code-share operations remains in
effect;

  Delta and/or Aeromexico must promptly notify the Department (Office of
International Aviation) if the code-share agreement is no longer
effective or if the carriers decide to cease operating all or a portion
of the approved code-share services.  (Such notice should be filed in
Docket OST-2005-23381.);

 The code-sharing operations conducted under this authority must comply
with 14 CFR 257 and with any amendment to the Department’s regulations
concerning code-share arrangements that may be adopted.  Notwithstanding
any provisions in the contract between the carriers, our approval here
is expressly conditioned upon the requirements that the subject foreign
air transportation be sold in the name of the carrier holding out such
service in computer reservation systems and elsewhere; that the carrier
selling such transportation (i.e., the carrier shown on the ticket)
accept responsibility for the entirety of the code-share journey for all
obligations established in its contract of carriage with the passenger;
and that the passenger liability of the operating carrier be unaffected;
and the operating carrier shall not permit the code of its U.S.
code-sharing partner to be carried on any flight that enters, departs,
or transits the airspace of any area for whose airspace the Federal
Aviation Administration has issued a flight prohibition; and

  The authority granted here is specifically conditioned so that neither
Delta nor Aeromexico shall give any force or effect to any contractual
provisions between themselves that are contrary to these conditions.

The route integration authority granted to Delta 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 granted should be construed as
conferring upon Delta rights (including fifth-freedom intermediate
and/or beyond rights) to serve markets where U.S. carrier entry is
limited unless Delta 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 such carrier to use the limited-entry route rights that are included
in Delta’s authority by virtue of the route integration authority
granted here, but that are not then being used by Delta, the holding of
such authority by route integration will not be considered as providing
any preference for Delta 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 Delta qualified to provide the
exemption 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 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.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP11-481-001]

Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, Inc.; Notice of Application

    On October 19, 2011, Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, Inc.
(Southern Star) filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission) an amendment to their May 13, 2011 abbreviated application
under section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act and the Rules and Regulations
of the Commission's Regulations for authority to expand the existing
certificated storage boundary zone not only horizontally but also
vertically at Southern Star's existing Alden Gas Storage Field located
in Rice County, Kansas. Subsequent to the filing of the original
application, Southern Star's technical experts reported that storage
gas had migrated vertically into the Simpson zone in portions of its
existing field and in portions of the area originally identified for
horizontal storage field expansion.
    The expansion would further the integrity and protection of the gas
storage field. The current operational parameters and capabilities of
the Alden Gas Storage Field will be unchanged and current certificated
service levels to customers will not be affected by boundary expansions
sought by the amended Application.
    Questions concerning this application may be directed to David N.
Roberts, Staff Analyst, Regulatory Affairs, 4700 Highway 56, Owensboro,
Kentucky 42301, by calling<PHONE_NUMBER> or by emailing
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    Pursuant to section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify Federal and State agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all Federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit seven copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.fere.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an
original and seven copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426. This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov.using
the ``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive email
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For
assistance with any FERC Online service, please email

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action removes Class E Airspace at Lexington, TN, as the
Franklin Wilkins Airport has been abandoned, and controlled airspace is
no longer required. This action enhances the safety and airspace
management around the Lexington, TN, area.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, August 20, 2015. The Director of the Federal
Register approves this incorporation by reference action under title 1,
Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to the annual revision of
FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of conforming amendments.

ADDRESSES: FAA Order 7400.9Y, Airspace Designations and Reporting
Points, and subsequent amendments can be viewed on line at http://www.faa.gov/airtraffic/publications/. The Order is also available for
inspection at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

Box 20636, Atlanta, Georgia 30320; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On March 9, 2015, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to remove Class E airspace at
Franklin Wilkins Airport, Lexington, TN., as the airport has been
abandoned, and controlled airspace no longer necessary (80 FR 12354).
    Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No
comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9Y dated August 6, 2014, and effective September 15,
2014, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class
E airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.9Y, airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2014, and effective September 15,
2014. FAA Order 7400.9Y is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this final rule. FAA Order 7400.9Y lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 removes Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface within a 6.6-mile radius of Franklin Wilkins Airport. The
airport has been abandoned, and controlled airspace no longer
necessary.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore, (1) is not a ``significant regulatory action''
under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26,
1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it removes controlled airspace at Franklin Wilkins Airport,
Lexington, TN.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 311a. This airspace action is not expected to
cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.
