Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. This
proposed AD was prompted by a report of a translating door handle
jamming during opening of an aft door. This proposed AD would require
replacing the handle shaft with a new single-piece machined handle
shaft on the aft entry and service doors, and require revising the
maintenance program by incorporating a new airworthiness limitation
task. We are proposing this AD to prevent a migrated pin from jamming a
translating door handle, which could prevent opening of

the door and impede an emergency evacuation.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 28,
2013.

Discussion

    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-
2012-17, dated May 24, 2012 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''),
to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI
states:

    There was one reported case of the translating door handle
jamming on opening. It was found that the pin on the existing handle
shaft could migrate and cause the translating door handle to jam. A
jammed translating door handle could prevent the opening of the door
and impede evacuation in the event of an emergency.
    This [Canadian] AD mandates the installation of the single piece
machined handle shaft (ModSum 4-113687) on the aft entry door and
the aft service door, as well as the incorporation of the new
Airworthiness Limitation (AWL) tasks introduced as a result of this
ModSum.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Bombardier has issued Service Bulletin 84-52-66, Revision A, dated
October 24, 2011; and Temporary Revision ALI-122, dated November 4,
2011, to Section 1 Certification Maintenance Requirements, of the
Airworthiness Limitations Items (ALI) Part 2, Bombardier Q400 Dash 8
Maintenance Requirements Manual, PSM 1-84-7. The actions described in
this service information are intended to correct the unsafe condition
identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.
    This proposed AD requires revisions to certain operator maintenance
documents to include new inspections. Compliance with these inspections
is required by section 91.403(c) of the Federal Aviation Regulations
(14 CFR 91.403(c)). For airplanes that have been previously modified,
altered, or repaired in the areas addressed by these inspections, an
operator might not be able to accomplish the inspections described in
the revisions. In this situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the
operator must request approval of an alternative method of compliance
(AMOC) in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (j)(1) of this
proposed AD. The request should include a description of changes to the
required inspections that will ensure the continued operational safety
of the airplane.

Difference Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    The MCAI is applicable to airplanes with serial numbers 4001
through 4364. The service information omits serial number 4002. We have
omitted serial number 4002 from the applicability of this proposed AD,
because it was a flight test airplane that has been decommissioned.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 78 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 8 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $10,596 per product. Where
the service information lists required parts costs that are covered
under warranty, we have assumed that there will be no charge for these
parts. As we do not control warranty coverage for affected parties,
some parties may incur costs higher than estimated here. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to
be $879,528, or $11,276 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more

detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

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

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

    1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

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

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:
Bombardier, Inc.: Docket No. FAA-2012-1226; Directorate Identifier
2012-NM-122-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by January 28, 2013.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-400, -401, and -
402 airplanes; certificated in any category; serial numbers 4001,
and 4003 through 4364 inclusive.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 52; Doors.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by a report of a translating door handle
jamming during opening of an aft door. We are issuing this AD to
prevent a migrated pin from jamming a translating door handle, which
could prevent opening of the door and impede an emergency
evacuation.

(f) Compliance

    You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD
performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions
have already been done.

(g) Installation of the Single-Piece Machined Handle Shaft on the Aft
Entry Door and the Aft Service Door

    Within 6,000 flight hours or 36 months, whichever occurs first,
after the effective date of this AD, replace the handle shaft with a
new single-piece machined handle shaft on the aft entry and service
doors by incorporating Modification Summary (ModSum) 4-113687, in
accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Bombardier
Service Bulletin 84-52-66, Revision A, dated October 24, 2011.

(h) Revision of the Maintenance Program Schedule

Limitations Items (ALI) Part 2, Bombardier Q400 Dash 8 Maintenance
Requirements Manual, PSM 1-84-7. The compliance time for doing the
initial inspections of the handle shafts on the aft entry and
service door is within 25,000 flight hours after installation of the
new handle shaft specified in paragraph (g) of this AD. Thereafter,
no alternative actions (e.g., inspections) or intervals may be used
unless the actions or intervals are approved as an alternative
method of compliance (AMOC) in accordance with the procedures
specified in paragraph (j)(1) of this AD.
    (2) The maintenance program revision required by paragraph
(h)(1) of this AD may be done by inserting a copy of Bombardier
Temporary Revision ALI-122, dated November 4, 2011, into Section 1
Certification Maintenance Requirements of the Airworthiness
Limitations Items (ALI) Part 2, Bombardier Q400 Dash 8 Maintenance
Requirements Manual, PSM 1-84-7. When this TR has been included in
general revisions of the maintenance requirements manual, the
general revisions may be inserted in the maintenance requirements
manual and this TR removed.

(i) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for the actions required by
paragraph (g) of this AD, if those actions were performed before the
effective date of this AD using Bombardier Service Bulletin 84-52-
66, dated July 25, 2011, which is not incorporated by reference in

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-545771; File No. SR-ISE-2006-56]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; International Securities Exchange,
LLC; Notice of Filing of a Proposed Rule Change and Amendment No. 1
Relating to Customer Fees for Certain Complex Orders

October 4, 2006.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on September 20, 2006, the International Securities Exchange, LLC
(``Exchange'' or ``ISE'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change, as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the
Exchange. The ISE filed Amendment No. 1 to the proposal on October 4,
2006.\3\ The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments
on the proposed rule change, as amended, from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Amendment No. 1 revises the text of the ISE's Schedule of
Fees to: (1) Explain when an order takes liquidity from the ISE's
complex order book; and (2) clarify that the proposed fee applies
solely to Complex Orders that trade with other Complex Orders, and
not to Complex Orders that trade with customer orders in the regular
order book.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Schedule of Fees to adopt a
customer fee for certain Complex Orders. The text of the proposed rule
change is available on ISE's Web site (http://www.iseoptions.com), at

the principal office of ISE, 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 this proposed rule change is to amend ISE's Schedule
of Fees to adopt a customer fee for certain Complex Orders.\4\ The
Exchange currently waives transaction fees for customers, except for
customer transactions in Premium Products.\5\ The Exchange has noted an
increase in volume in certain customer order transactions in Complex
Orders. According to the ISE, customers that use highly developed
trading systems are quickly able to hit the bid or lift an offer,
thereby taking liquidity, i.e., interacting with Complex Orders
resident on the complex order book. The Exchange thus proposes to
charge an execution and comparison fee of $0.15 and $0.03 per contract,
respectively, for customer orders that take liquidity to put them on a
more equal footing with broker-dealer orders that are currently subject
to this fee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Complex Orders are defined in ISE Rule 722(a).
    \5\ Premium Products are defined in the Schedule of Fees as the
products enumerated therein.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As with all Complex Order fees, only the largest leg of a Complex
Order will be charged this fee if that leg is also taking liquidity
away. The Exchange will not charge customers for Complex Orders if they
are the liquidity provider, i.e., they are first on the complex order
book. The Exchange will determine which side of a complex order is the
liquidity taker and which is the liquidity provider based on the order
time. The order that arrived first on the complex order book is the
liquidity provider. This fee will only apply to customer Complex Orders
that trade with other Complex Orders. If a Complex Order legs into the
regular market, customer orders in the regular market that interact
with the Complex Order will not be charged with fee, nor will a fee be
charged to the Complex Order legging in.
    ISE believes that the proposed fee is objective in that it is based
on the behavior of market participants and the type of orders
submitted. As noted above, since the behavior of these customers is
similar to the behavior of a broker-dealer, the ISE believes that it is
fair for the Exchange to charge for these customer orders the same fees
as those charged for broker-dealer orders.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the basis for the proposal under the Act
is the requirement under Section 6(b)(4) of the Act \6\ that an
exchange have an equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and
other charges among its members and other persons using its facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change does not impose
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit,
comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received
any written comments from members or other interested parties.

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 it reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    A. by order approve such proposed rule change; or
    B. institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

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
the following methods:

Electronic Comments

Airworthiness Directives; Daher Aerospace (Type Certificate
Previously Held by SOCATA) Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for certain Daher Aerospace (type certificate previously held by
SOCATA) Model TBM 700 airplanes. This proposed AD results from
mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an
aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. The unsafe condition that is the
subject of the MCAI is ice accumulation on the oil cooler air inlet
duct fin. This proposed AD would require modifying the oil cooler air
induction duct. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 4,
2021.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR

Background

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0133, dated June 22, 2018, and corrected June 25, 2018 (referred
to after this as ``the MCAI''), to address the unsafe condition on
certain Daher Aerospace (type certificate previously held by SOCATA)
Model TBM 700 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    During flight testing in icing conditions, oil temperature
increase was observed. Subsequent investigation determined that the
loss of efficiency of the oil cooler system was due to ice
accumulation on the engine air induction duct fins.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to uncommanded
engine in-flight shut-down and reduced control of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, DAHER AEROSPACE
developed MOD 70-0616-79 for aeroplanes in production, removing the
4 upper fins of the oil cooler air induction duct to avoid ice
accumulation, available for in-service aeroplanes through the SB
[Daher Aerospace Service Bulletin 70-254 79, dated April 18, 2018].

    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
modification of the oil cooler air induction duct.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2020-
1069.
    Although the unsafe condition statement in the MCAI identifies the
cause as ice accumulation on the engine air induction fin, the FAA has
determined that this does not accurately identify the affected air
path. The affected area is the oil cooler air inlet duct fin.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Daher Aerospace Service Bulletin SB 70-254, dated
April 2018. The service information specifies procedures for removing
the four upper fins of the oil cooler air induction duct and for re-
identifying the oil cooler air induction duct with a new part number.
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.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA also reviewed Daher Aerospace Service Bulletin SB 70-231,
Revision 1, dated July 2018; and Daher Aerospace Service Bulletin SB
70-219, Revision 2, dated July 2018. The service information identifies
the kit number and installation procedures for replacing the oil cooler
air induction duct.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority,
it has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
and service information referenced above. The FAA is issuing this NPRM
after determining the unsafe condition described previously is likely
to exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in the service
information already described.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect up to 807 products of U.S. registry. The FAA also estimates that
it would take about 3 work-hours per product to comply with the
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $50 per product.
    Based on these figures, the FAA estimates the total cost of the
proposed AD on U.S. operators to be up to $246,135 at $305 per product.

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.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-25-
16, which applied to all ATR--GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional
Model ATR42-200, -300, and -320 airplanes. AD 2022-25-16 required
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. This
AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive
airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD continues to require
certain actions in AD 2022-25-16 and requires revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European
Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by
reference (IBR). The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective July 11, 2023.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of July 11,
2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2022-25-16, Amendment 39-22272 (87 FR
77491, December 19, 2022) (AD 2022-25-16), which applied to all ATR--
GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42-200, -300, and -320
airplanes. AD 2022-25-16 retained certain requirements of AD 2020-09-16
and also required revising the existing maintenance or inspection
program, as applicable, to incorporate additional new or more
restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations, as
specified in EASA AD 2022-0062, dated April 8, 2022. The FAA issued AD
2022-25-16 to prevent reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
    The NPRM published in the Federal Register on March 13, 2023 (88 FR
15333). The NPRM was prompted by AD 2022-0199, dated September 26,
2022, issued by EASA (EASA AD 2022-0199) (also referred to as the
MCAI). The MCAI states that new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations have been developed.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at regulations.gov under
Docket No. FAA-2023-0431.
    In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to retain certain requirements of AD
2022-25-16. The FAA also proposed to require revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in EASA AD
2022-0199. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent

reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received one comment from Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA), who supported the NPRM without change.

Conclusion

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to
the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, it
has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
referenced above. The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the
comment received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this
AD as proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on this product. Except for minor editorial changes,
this AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM. None of the changes will
increase the economic burden on any operator.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2022-0199 specifies new or more restrictive maintenance
tasks and airworthiness limitations for airplane structures and
components.
    This AD also requires EASA AD 2022-0062, dated April 8, 2022, which
the Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by
reference as of January 23, 2023 (87 FR 77491, December 19, 2022).
    This material 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.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 26 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained
actions from AD 2022-25-16 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
    The FAA has determined that revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator,
although the agency recognizes that this number may vary from operator
to operator. Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection
program changes for their affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined
that a per-operator estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane
estimate.
    The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the new actions
to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).

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.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    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) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) 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.

33 CFR Part 100

[Docket Number USCG-2022-0698]
RIN 1625-AA08

Special Local Regulation; San Diego Fleet Week Veterans Day Boat
Parade; San Diego Bay, San Diego, CA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is proposing to amend its special local
regulations for recurring marine parades, regattas, and other events in
Southern California Annual Marine Events for the San Diego Captain of
the Port Zone. This proposed rule would add one new recurring special
local regulation for the San Diego Fleet Week Veterans Day Boat Parade.
This action is necessary to provide for the safety of life on the
navigable waters during the annual event. This proposed rulemaking
would restrict vessel traffic in the designated areas during the event
unless authorized by the Captain of the Port San Diego or a designated
representative. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before October 3, 2022.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2022-0698 using the Federal Decision Making Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
proposed rulemaking, call or email Lieutenant Junior Grade Shera Kim,
Waterways Management, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, email
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    The Coast Guard is proposing to amend 33 CFR 100.1101 by adding a
new reoccurring marine event to Table 1 of Section Sec.  100.1101 for a
boat parade in San Diego Bay, CA.
    The San Diego Fleet Week Foundation notified the Coast Guard that
it will be hosting the San Diego Fleet Week Veterans Day Boat Parade
annually on a single day during the month of November. The regulated
area would cover all navigable waters of San Diego Bay, beginning at
Shelter Island, proceeding northeast to Harbor Island, proceeding
southeast along the shoreline to Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal, crossing
the Federal navigable channel prior to the Coronado Bridge, then
northwest along the shoreline of Coronado Island to the Coronado Ferry
Landing.
    The proposed annually reoccurring special local regulation is
necessary to provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during
the event. Based on the nature of this marine event, the large number
of participants, and event location, the COTP has determined that the
event listed in this proposed rule could pose a risk to participants or
waterways users if the normal vessel traffic were to interfere with the
event. Possible hazards include risks of injury or death from near or
actual contact among participants and mariners traversing through the
regulated area. In order to protect the safety of all waterway users,
including event participants and spectators, this proposed rule would
establish a special local regulation for the time and location of the
marine event. Vessels would not be permitted to enter the regulated
areas unless authorized by the COTP or a designated representative. The
Coast Guard is proposing this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70041.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard proposes to add one new recurring special local
regulation in Table 1 to Sec.  100.1101 for the San Diego Fleet Week
Veterans Day Boat Parade. The event and special local regulation would
occur on one day in November. The duration of the regulated area is
intended to ensure the safety of the public during the parade. Non-
participant vessels are not permitted to enter, transit through, anchor
in, or remain within the regulated area without obtaining permission
from the Captain of the Port San Diego or a designated representative.
Annually before the event, the Coast Guard would

publish a notice of enforcement in the Federal Register identifying the
exact date and times the special local regulation would be enforced.
The Coast Guard will also provide notice of the regulated area by
Broadcast Notice to Mariners and on-scene designated representatives.
The regulatory text we are proposing appears at the end of this
document.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed 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. This NPRM has not been designated a ``significant
regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM
has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the special local regulation. Vessel traffic
would be able to safely transit around this special local regulation,
which would impact a small-designated area of the San Diego Bay.
Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners
via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the areas, and the rulemaking would
allow vessels to seek permission to enter the areas.

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
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
special local regulation may be small entities, for the reasons stated
in section IV.A above, this proposed rule would not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this proposed rule
would have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment
(see ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to
what degree this rulemaking would economically affect it.
    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 proposed rule. If the proposed rule
would affect your small business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or
options for compliance, please call or email the person listed in the
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. The Coast Guard will not
retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this
proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments) because it would 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 proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please call or email the person listed in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.

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 proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the potential effects of
this proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Directive 023-01, Rev. 1, associated implementing
instructions, and Environmental Planning COMDTINST 5090.1 (series),
which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made
a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of
actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant
effect on the human environment. This proposed rule involves a
regulated area that would prohibit persons and vessels from transiting
the regulated area during the parade. Normally such actions are
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L[61] of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 1. We
seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a
significant environmental impact from this proposed rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to call or email 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.

V. Public Participation and Request for Comments

    We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking,
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If
you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this
rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which

Amendment of United States Area Navigation (RNAV) Routes T-212,
T-216, T-218, and T-221; Eastern United States.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends United States Area Navigation (RNAV) route
T-218 in the eastern United States. In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to
also amend T-212, T-216, and T-221 but those changes have been deferred
to a later date and are removed from this rule.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, May 19, 2022. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order JO 7400.11
and publication of conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    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
the 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 modifies the route structure as necessary to preserve
the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the NAS.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA-2021-0974, in the Federal Register (86 FR 61728; November 8, 2021),
to amend RNAV routes T-212, T-216, T-218, and T-221 in the eastern
United States. Interested parties were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written comments

on the proposal. No comments were received.
    United States RNAV T-routes are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA
Order JO 7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September 15,
2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The RNAV route
listed in this document will be subsequently published in FAA Order JO
7400.11.

Differences From the NPRM

    The amendment of RNAV routes T-212, T-216, and T-221 has been
deferred to a later date to accommodate additional planning and
coordination; therefore, this rule only amends T-218. Routes T-212, T-
216, and T-221 will be addressed in separate future docket actions.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace Designations
and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective September
15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F lists Class
A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by amending RNAV route T-218 in
the eastern United States. The change consists of adding an RNAV
waypoint (WP) to replace a navigation aid that is scheduled for
decommissioning. The change does not affect navigation along the route.
    T-218: T-218 currently extends between the Stonyfork, PA, (SFK)
VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME), and the Sparta, NJ, (SAX)
VOR and Tactical Air Navigational System (VORTAC). The Stonyfork VOR/
DME is replaced by the DLMAR, PA, WP, (located 60 feet southeast of the
Stonyfork VOR/DME). As amended, T-218 extends between the DELMAR WP and
the Sparta VORTAC. The full route legal description of T-218 is listed
in ``The Amendment'' section, below.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (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.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action of amending RNAV route T-
218, by adding waypoints, in support of efforts transitioning the NAS
from ground-based to satellite-based navigation, qualifies for
categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part
1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts:
Policies and Procedures, paragraph 5-6.5a, which categorically excludes
from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that
designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and
reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D,
and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points)
and paragraph 5-6.5b, which categorically excludes from further
environmental impact review ``Actions regarding establishment of jet
routes and Federal airways (see 14 CFR 71.15, Designation of jet routes
and VOR Federal airways) . . .''. As such, this action is not expected
to result in any potentially significant environmental impacts. In
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding
Extraordinary Circumstances, the FAA has reviewed this action for
factors and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded
action may have a significant environmental impact requiring further
analysis. Accordingly, the FAA has determined that no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental
assessment or environmental impact study.
