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

    Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc. (``EDGA'' or the ``Exchange'') is filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'') a
proposed rule change to amend the EDGA fee schedule as it relates to
pricing for the use of certain routing strategies. The text of the
proposed rule change is attached as Exhibit 5.
    The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (http://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/regulation/rule_filings/edga/), at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, 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 aspects of such
statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to amend the EDGA fee
schedule to change the pricing applicable to orders routed using the
ROUC routing strategy in connection with planned changes to the System
routing table.\3\ ROUC is a routing strategy offered by the Exchange
that is used to target certain low cost protected market centers by
routing to those venues after accessing available liquidity on the EDGA
Book and certain non-exchange destinations, and prior to routing to
other trading centers included in the System routing table and posting
to the Cboe EDGX Exchange, Inc. (``EDGX'') order book, if possible. The
Exchange periodically changes the low cost venues targeted by the ROUC
routing strategy to ensure that the venues prioritized for routing can
be accessed at a low cost. Currently, three exchanges are included in
the System routing table as low cost protected market centers: Cboe BYX
Exchange, Inc. (``BYX''), Nasdaq BX, Inc. (``BX''), and New York Stock
Exchange LLC (``NYSE''). Pursuant to Rule 11.11(g), the Exchange has
determined to modify System routing table such that NYSE would no
longer be listed as a low cost protected market center where orders are
first routed after seeking available liquidity on the EDGA Book and
certain non-exchange destinations. In addition, the Exchange has
decided to add NYSE American LLC (``NYSE American'') and NYSE National,
Inc. (``NYSE National'') as low cost protected market centers. These
changes to the System routing table are scheduled to be introduced on
February 1, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ The term ``System routing table'' refers to the proprietary
process for determining the specific trading venues to which the
System routes orders and the order in which it routes them. See Rule
11.13(b)(3) [sic]. The Exchange reserves the right to route orders
simultaneously or sequentially, maintain a different System routing
table for different routing options and to modify the System routing
table at any time without notice. Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Currently, orders routed using the ROUC routing strategy are
provided a rebate of $0.00150 per share when routed to BYX,\4\ charged
a fee of $0.00290 per share when routed to Nasdaq PSX (``PSX''),\5\ or
charged a fee of $0.00200 per share when routed to a non-exchange
destination.\6\ Orders routed to other markets may be subject to
different non-ROUC specific pricing. The Exchange proposes to add two
new fee codes, MX and NX, that relate to orders routed to NYSE American
and NYSE National, respectively, using the ROUC routing strategy. In
securities at or above $1.00, orders routed using the ROUC routing
strategy would be charged a fee of $0.00020 per share if executed on
NYSE American, and provided a rebate of $0.00200 per share if executed
on NYSE National. As proposed, the Exchange would not charge a fee or
provide a rebate for orders routed in securities priced below $1.00.
The proposed fees and rebates chosen for routing to these venues
generally reflect the current transaction fees and rebates available
for accessing liquidity on those markets.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See EDGA Equities Schedule of Fees, fee code ``BY.'' This
rebate applies to securities priced at or above $1.00. For
securities priced below $1.00, a fee equal to 0.10% of the dollar
value is applied instead. Id.
    \5\ See EDGA Equities Schedule of Fees, fee code ``K.'' This fee
applies to securities priced at or above $1.00. For securities
priced below $1.00, a fee equal to 0.30% of the dollar value is
applied instead. Id.
    \6\ See EDGA Equities Schedule of Fees, fee code ``Q.'' This fee
applies to securities priced at or above $1.00. For securities
priced below $1.00, a fee equal to 0.30% of the dollar value is
applied instead. Id.
    \7\ NYSE American currently charges a fee for removing liquidity
that is $0.00020 per share in securities priced at or above $1.00,
and 0.25% of the total dollar value of the transaction in securities
priced below $1.00. See NYSE American Equities Price List, I.
Transaction Fees.
    NYSE National currently provides a rebate of $0.00200 per share
in securities priced at or above $1.00 for members that achieve
their taking tier. See NYSE National Schedule of Fees and Rebates,
I. Transaction Fees, B. Tiered Rates. Orders that remove liquidity
in securities below $1.00 are executed without charge or rebate. See
NYSE National, Schedule of Fees and Rebates, I. Transaction Fees, A.
General Rates.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6 of the Act,\8\ in general, and furthers the requirements
of Section 6(b)(4),\9\ in particular, as it is designed to provide for
the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges
among its members and other persons using its facilities. The Exchange
believes the proposed routing fee changes are appropriate as they
reflect changes to the System routing table used to determine the order
in which venues are accessed using the ROUC

routing strategy. ROUC specifically targets certain equities exchanges
that provide cheap executions or rebates to liquidity removing orders,
and routes to those venues after trading with the EDGA Book and certain
non-exchange destinations, and prior to accessing liquidity that may be
available on other venues on the System routing table. The Exchange
believes that the proposed changes reflect the intent of members when
they submit routable order flow to the Exchange using the ROUC routing
strategy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that it is reasonable and equitable to
provide special pricing for orders routed to NYSE American and NYSE
National using the ROUC routing strategy. As mentioned previously, the
Exchange is adding these two exchanges to its list of low cost
protected market centers, and wishes to provide the benefit of the
rebate or lower fee provided by those markets to EDGA members using the
ROUC routing strategy. The Exchange believes that these changes may
increase interest in the Exchange's ROUC routing strategy, in
particular, by passing on better pricing to EDGA members that choose to
enter such orders on the Exchange, thereby encouraging additional order
flow to be entered to the EDGA Book.
    The rebates provided to orders routed to NYSE National using the
ROUC routing strategy would be limited to order price at or above $1.00
in light of the fact that NYSE National does not provide rebates to
liquidity removing orders in securities priced below $1.00. For
securities priced below $1.00, the Exchange would charge no fee and
provide no rebate, which is equivalent to pricing on NYSE National.\10\
Without limiting the proposed rebate for NYSE National to securities
priced at or above $1.00, the Exchange would pay a significant rebate
that would not be recouped via a rebate earned from the execution
venue. The Exchange believes that is reasonable and equitable to limit
routing rebates to circumstances where the Exchange would actually earn
a rebate from the away venue in order to properly recoup the costs of
accessing liquidity on such markets. Similarly, the Exchange would
charge no fee and provide no rebate for orders routed to NYSE American
using the ROUC routing strategy in securities priced below $1.00.
Although such orders are charged a fee by NYSE American equal to 0.25%
of the total dollar value of the transaction, the Exchange has
determined to provide free executions as an additional inducement for
members to send their routable order flow to EDGA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See supra note 8 [sic].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, the Exchange believes that the proposed changes are
equitable and not unfairly discriminatory as the proposed fees and
rebates would apply equally to all members that use the Exchange to
route orders using the associated routing strategy. The proposed fees
are designed to reflect the fees charged and rebates offered by certain
away trading centers that are accessed by Exchange routing strategies,
and are being made in conjunction with changes to the System routing
table designed to provide members with low cost executions for their
routable order flow. Furthermore, if members do not favor the proposed
pricing, they can send their routable orders directly to away markets
instead of using routing functionality provided by the Exchange.
Routing through the Exchange is voluntary, and the Exchange operates in
a competitive environment where market participants can readily direct
order flow to competing venues or providers of routing services if they
deem fee levels to be excessive.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended. The
proposed routing fee changes are designed to reflect changes being made
to the System routing table used to determine where to send certain
routable orders, and generally provide better pricing to members for
orders routed to low cost protected market centers using the Exchange's
routing strategies. The Exchange operates in a highly competitive
market in which market participants can readily direct their order flow
to competing venues. In such an environment, the Exchange must
continually review, and consider adjusting, its fees and rebates to
remain competitive with other exchanges. For the reasons described
above, the Exchange believes that the proposed fee changes reflect this
competitive environment.

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

    No written comments were either solicited or received.

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

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \11\ and paragraph (f) of Rule 19b-4 \12\
thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed
rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Coast Guard

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2017-0811]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone, Delaware River; Dredging

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule; with request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing temporary safety zones in
portions of Bellevue Range, Marcus Hook Range, Anchorage 7 off Marcus
Hook Range, Chester Range, and Eddystone Range, on the Delaware River,
in Philadelphia, PA. The safety zone will temporarily restrict vessel
traffic from transiting or anchoring in a portion of the Delaware River
while dredging operations are being conducted to facilitate the
Delaware River Main Channel Deepening project for the main navigational
channel of the Delaware River. This regulation is necessary to provide
for the safety of life on navigable waters of the Delaware River, in
the vicinity of dredging activity and is intended to protect mariners
from the hazards associated with pipe-laying and dredging operations.

DATES: This rule is effective from August 30, 2017, through March 15,
2018.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2017-0811 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice
and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4(a) of
the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because doing so would be impractical and
contrary to the public interest. Final details for the dredging
operation were not received by the Coast Guard until August 10, 2017.
Vessels transiting through Bellevue Range, Chester Range, Eddystone
Range, and Marcus Hook Range or attempting to enter the waters of
Anchorage 7 off Marcus Hook Range during dredging operations may be at
risk. We are taking immediate action to help protect the safety of the
project personnel, vessels, and the marine environment on the navigable
waters within the safety zones while dredging is being conducted. It is
important to have these regulations in effect during dredging
operations and it is impracticable to delay the regulations.
    We are issuing this rule and, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for making it effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal Register because doing so would
be contrary to the public interest. Allowing this dredging operation to
go forward without safety zones in place would expose mariners and the
public to unnecessary dangers.

    Even though the normal comment process was shortened for this rule,
we are providing an opportunity for public comment and, should public
comment show the need for modifications to the regulated area, we may
make those modifications to the safety zone and provide notice of those
modifications to the affected public.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. The Captain of the Port (COTP), Delaware Bay, has determined that
potential hazards associated with dredging operations beginning August
30, 2017, will be a safety concern for vessels attempting to transit
the Delaware River, along Bellevue Range, Marcus Hook Range, Anchorage
7 off Marcus Hook Range, Chester Range, and Eddystone Range. This rule
is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment on
the navigable waters within the safety zones while dredging operations
are being conducted.

IV. Discussion of the Rule

    The COTP is temporarily establishing safety zones on portions of
the Delaware River from August 30, 2017 until March 15, 2018, unless
cancelled earlier by the COTP. The safety zone is necessary to
facilitate the main channel deepening of the Delaware River to 45 feet
in Bellevue Range, Marcus Hook Range, Anchorage 7 off Marcus Hook Range
(as described in 33 CFR 110.157(a)(8)), Chester Range, and Eddystone
Range. Maintenance dredging in the channel will be conducted with the
dredges ESSEX and CHARLESTON along with the associated dredge pipeline.
Pipeline will be a combination of floating hoses immediately behind the
dredge and submerged pipeline leading to upland disposal areas. Due to
the hazards related to dredging operations, the associated pipeline,
and the location of the submerged pipeline, safety zones will be
established in the following areas:
    (1) Safety zone one includes all waters within 250 yards of the
dredge and all related dredge equipment. This safety zone will be
established for the duration of the maintenance project. Vessels
requesting to transit shall contact the dredge ESSEX and/or dredge
CHARLESTON on VHF channel 13 or 16, at least 1 hour, as well as 30
minutes, prior to arrival. At least one side of the main navigational
channel will be kept clear for safe passage of vessels in the vicinity
of the safety zones. At no time will the main navigational channel be
closed to vessel traffic. Vessels should approach meetings in these
areas where one side of the main navigational channel is open and
proceed per this rule and the Rules of the Road (33 CFR subchapter E).
    (2) Safety zone two includes all the waters of Anchorage 7 off
Marcus Hook Range, as described in 33 CFR 110.157(a)(8). Vessels
wishing to anchor in Anchorage 7 off Marcus Hook Range must obtain
permission from the COTP at least 24 hours in advance by calling (215)
271-4807. The COTP will permit two vessels at a time to anchor on a
``first-come, first-served'' basis. Vessels will only be allowed to
anchor for a 12 hour period. Vessels that require an examination by the
Public Health Service, Customs, or Immigration authorities will be
directed to an anchorage for the required inspection by the COTP.
Vessels are encouraged to use Anchorage 9 near entrance to Mantua
Creek, Anchorage 10 at Naval Base, Philadelphia, and Anchorage 6 off
Deepwater Point Range as alternative anchorages.
    Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zones is
prohibited unless vessels obtain permission from the COTP or make
satisfactory passing arrangements with the dredge ESSEX and/or dredge
CHARLESTON per this rule and the Rules of the Road (33 CFR subchapter
E).
    The COTP will implement and terminate the safety zones individually
once all submerged pipeline has been recovered and dredging operations
are completed in each respective range. Notice of the implementation
and the termination of the safety zone will be made in accordance with
33 CFR 165.7.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on a number of these statutes and Executive orders, and we
discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This rule has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, it has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the safety zones. Although this regulation
will restrict access to regulated areas, the effect of this rule will
not be significant because there are a number of alternate anchorages
available for vessels to anchor. Furthermore, vessels may be permitted
to transit through the safety zone with the permission of the COTP or
make satisfactory passing arrangements with the dredges ESSEX and/or
CHARLESTON in accordance with this rule and the Rules of the Road (33
CFR subchapter E). Notification of the safety zones to the maritime
public will be made via maritime advisories allowing mariners to alter
their plans accordingly.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires Federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this rule. If the rule would affect your
small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have
questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please
contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you

wish to comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-
REG-FAIR (1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against
small entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy
or action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This rule will not call for a new collection of information under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and have
determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
    Also, this rule does not have tribal implications under Executive
Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it does not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. If
you believe this rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section above.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined that it
is one of a category of actions that do not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This
rule involves a safety zone that will close only one side of the main
navigational channel and vessels can request permission to enter the
channel. It is categorically excluded from further review under
paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. A Record
of Environmental Consideration (REC) supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-18-01 for
all CFM International S.A. (CFM) Model CFM56-7B turbofan engines. AD
2018-18-01 required initial and repetitive inspections of certain fan
blades and, if they fail the inspection, their replacement with parts
eligible for installation. This AD requires the same initial and
repetitive inspections but revises the compliance time for the initial
inspections and revises the installation prohibition based on the
updated compliance time. This AD was prompted by further analysis by
the manufacturer that indicated a need to reduce the initial fan blade
inspection interval based on an ongoing root cause investigation of an
April 2018 engine failure. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued AD 2018-18-01, Amendment 39-19380 (83 FR 49272, October
1, 2018), (``AD 2018-18-01''), for all CFM model CFM56-7B turbofan
engines. AD 2018-18-01 required initial and repetitive ultrasonic
inspections (USI) or eddy current inspection (ECI) of certain fan
blades and, if they fail the inspection, their replacement with parts
eligible for installation. AD 2018-18-01 resulted from analysis by the
manufacturer that indicated a need to reduce the repetitive fan blade
inspection interval based on ongoing root cause investigation of an
April 2018 engine failure. The April 2018 engine failure was the result
of a fractured fan blade leading to the engine inlet cowl
disintegrating and debris penetrating the fuselage, causing a loss of
pressurization and prompting an emergency descent. One passenger
fatality occurred as a result. We issued AD 2018-18-01 to reduce the
repetitive inspection interval from 3,000 cycles to 1,600 cycles.

Actions Since AD 2018-18-01 Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2018-18-01, CFM gained a better understanding of
the fan blade failures based on the inspections and further analysis of
the detected cracks and the April 2018 event. As a result, CFM has
published CFM International Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56-7B S/B 72-1033,
Revision 3, dated November 6, 2018, to reduce the initial inspection
requirement from 20,000 cycles since new (CSN) to 17,000 CSN. We are
issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed CFM International SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1033, Revision 3,
dated November 6, 2018, and Subtask 72-21-01-220-091, of Task 72-21-01-
200-001, from the CFM56-7B Engine Shop Manual (ESM), Revision 57, dated
January 15, 2018. CFM International SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1033, Revision
3, describes procedures for performing a USI of the affected fan
blades. Subtask 72-21-01-220-091, of Task 72-21-01-200-001, from the
CFM56-7B ESM, describes procedures for performing an ECI of the
affected fan blades. This service information is reasonably available
because the interested parties have access to it through their normal
course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Other Related Service Information

    We also reviewed CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1019, dated March 24, 2017;
CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1019, Revision 1, dated June 13, 2017; CFM SB
CFM56-7B S/B 72-1024, dated July 26, 2017; CFM International SB CFM56-
7B S/B 72-1033, Revision 2, dated July 27, 2018; CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B
72-1033, Revision 1, dated May 9, 2018; CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1033,
dated April 20, 2018; and General Electric Field Support Technology
(FST) Procedure 2370, dated December 9, 2016. These SBs and the FST
provide information on performing the USI.

FAA's Determination

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

AD Requirements

    This AD requires initial and repetitive USI or ECI of certain fan
blades and, if they fail the inspection, their replacement with parts
eligible for installation.

Interim Action

    We consider this AD interim action. An investigation to determine
the cause of the failure is ongoing, and we may consider additional
rulemaking if final action is identified.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public
justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule.
Due to the reduction in the initial inspection interval, some fan
blades have reached or exceeded the revised initial inspection
threshold and will require inspection within 1,000 cycles after the
effective date of this AD. Because of this, the compliance time for the
required action is shorter than the time necessary for the public to
comment and for the FAA to issue the final rule to ensure the unsafe
condition is addressed. Therefore, we find good cause that notice and
opportunity for prior public comment are impracticable. In addition,
for the reasons stated above, we find that good cause exists for making
this amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to
provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite
you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this final
rule. Send your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES
section. Include the docket number FAA-2018-1039 and product identifier
2018-NE-14-AD at the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite
comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy
aspects of this final rule. We will consider all comments received by
the closing date and may amend this final rule because of those
comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this final rule.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 3,716 engines installed on 1,858
airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                           Estimated Inspection Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                Action                         Labor cost           Parts cost        product        operators

Inspect engine fan blade..............  2 work-hours x $85 per                $0            $170        $631,720
                                         hour = $170.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to complete any necessary
replacement of a single fan blade that would be required based on the
results of the inspection. We have no way of determining the number of
engines that might need fan blades to be replaced.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, Section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to engines, propellers, and
associated appliances to the Manager, Engine and Propeller Standards
Branch, Policy and Innovation Division.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and

    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

(d) Subject

    Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC) Code 7230, Turbine Engine
Compressor Section.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by further analysis by the manufacturer
that indicated a need to reduce the initial fan blade inspection
requirement based on its ongoing root cause investigation of an
April 2018 engine failure that resulted in one fatality. We are
issuing this AD to prevent failure of the fan blade. The unsafe
condition, if not addressed, could result in failure of the fan
blade, the engine inlet cowl disintegrating and debris penetrating
the fuselage, causing a loss of pressurization, and prompting an
emergency descent.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Required Actions

    (1) Perform an ultrasonic inspection (USI) or eddy current
inspection (ECI) of the concave and convex sides of the fan blade
dovetail as follows:
    (i) For a fan blade with less than or equal to 16,000 cycles
since new (CSN), inspect prior to accumulating 17,000 CSN.
    (ii) For a fan blade with more than 16,000 and less than 20,000
CSN, inspect within 1,000 cycles but no later than 20,000 CSN.
    (iii) For a fan blade with 20,000 or more CSN, inspect before
further flight.
    (iv) Thereafter, repeat this inspection no later than 1,600
cycles since the last inspection, or within 450 cycles after October
16, 2018, the effective date of AD 2018-18-01, whichever occurs
later.
    (v) Use the Accomplishment Instructions, paragraphs 3.A.(3)(a)
through (i), of CFM International Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56-7B S/B

001, from CFM CFM56-7B Engine Shop Manual, Revision 57, dated
January 15, 2018, to perform an ECI.
    (2) If any unserviceable indication, as specified in the
applicable service information in paragraph (g)(1)(v) of this AD, is
found during the inspections required by paragraph (g) of this AD,
replace the fan blade before further flight with a part eligible for
installation.

(h) Installation Prohibition

    Do not install any replacement fan blade unless it meets one of
the following criteria:
    (1) The replacement fan blade has fewer than 17,000 CSN, or;
    (2) The replacement fan blade has been inspected, per paragraph
(g)(1) of this AD, within the last 1,600 cycles before installation.

(i) Definition

    For the purpose of this AD, a ``replacement fan blade'' is a fan
blade that is being installed into an engine from which it was not
previously removed. Removing and reinstalling a fan blade for the
purpose of relubrication is not subject to the Installation
Prohibition of this AD.

(j) Credit for Previous Actions

    You may take credit for the actions that are required by
paragraph (g) of this AD, if you performed those actions before the
effective date of this AD using CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1019, dated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The New Jersey Transit, owner and operator
of the New Jersey Coast Line's Brielle Viaduct across the Manasquan
River, mile 0.9, at Point Pleasant, NJ, has requested a temporary
deviation from the current operating schedule to accommodate a routine
maintenance and inspection of the rail road tracks. The bridge has a
vertical clearance of 3 feet above mean high water (MHW) in the closed
position.
    The current operating schedule is set out in 33 CFR 117.5. Under
this temporary deviation, the bridge will be maintained in the closed-
to-navigation position from 2 a.m. until 7 p.m. from April 1, 2017,
through April 9, 2017. During the closure periods, the bridge will open
on signal if at least 15 minutes notice is given. The bridge will open
on signal at all other times.
    The Manasquan River is used by a variety of vessels including small
commercial vessels, recreational vessels and tug and barge traffic. The
Coast Guard has carefully considered the nature and volume of vessel
traffic on the waterway in publishing this temporary deviation.
    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may
do so at any time. The bridge will be able to open for emergencies. The
Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterway through our
Local and Broadcast Notice to Mariners of the change in operating
schedule for the bridge so that vessel operators can arrange their
transits to minimize any impact caused by this temporary deviation.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of this effective
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: March 22, 2017.

Bridge Program Manager, Fifth Coast Guard District.
