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 expands the availability of RNAV route structure in
Alaska and improves the efficient flow of air traffic within the
National Airspace System by lessening the

dependency on ground based navigation.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA-2021-0857 in the Federal Register (86 FR 58817; October 25, 2021),
establishing RNAV route T-382 in the vicinity of Hooper Bay, AK, in
support of a large and comprehensive T-route modernization project for
the state of Alaska. Interested parties were invited to participate in
this rulemaking effort by submitting comments on the proposal. One
comment that was not germane to the proposed action was received.
    United States Area Navigation 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 published subsequently
in FAA Order JO 7400.11.

Differences From the NPRM

    In the NPRM, the FAA discovered a typographical error in two
separate locations identifying the proposed RNAV T-route as ``T-381''
instead of the intended RNAV T-route ``T-382''. The errors are in ``The
Proposal'' section describing the proposed route and in the route
description title of the proposed amendment to part 71. The correct
RNAV T-route identifier is ``T-382''.
    Additionally, subsequent to the NPRM, the FAA determined it was
necessary to relocate the JOPES, AK, waypoint (WP) to address
instrument flight procedure concerns related to two points (i.e., FIX,
navigational aid, waypoints) being located too close to one another. As
a result, the latitude/longitude geographic coordinates for the JOPES
WP are changed from ``lat. 62[deg]03'33.80'' N, long.
163[deg]16'54.82'' W'' to ``lat. 62[deg]03'33.30'' N, long.
163[deg]17'07.68'' W''. This change is a minor adjustment to the route
point and moves the WP by approximately 600 feet from its proposed
location.
    This action incorporates the changes noted above.

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 establishing RNAV route T-382
in the vicinity of Hooper Bay, AK, in support of a large and
comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska.
The route is described below.
    T-382: T-382 is established between the Hooper Bay, AK (HPB), VHF
Omnidirectional Range/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) and the
McGrath, AK (MCG), VHF Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigational
(VORTAC) navigational aids. T-382 offers alternate routing with a lower
Minimum Enroute Altitude (MEA) over more favorable terrain to the
existing Colored Federal airway G-15 and Alaskan VHF Omnidirectional
Radar (VOR) Federal airways V-496 and V-510 between the Hooper Bay VOR/
DME and McGrath VORTAC.
    The full route description of the new RNAV route is listed in the
Amendment to part 71 set forth 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 airspace action of establishing
RNAV route T-382 in the vicinity of Hooper Bay, AK, 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 5-6.5i, which categorically excludes from
further environmental review the establishment of new or revised air
traffic control procedures conducted at 3,000 feet or more above ground
level (AGL); procedures conducted below 3,000 feet AGL that do not
cause traffic to be routinely routed over noise sensitive areas;
modifications to currently approved procedures conducted below 3,000
feet AGL that do not significantly increase noise over noise sensitive
areas; and increases in minimum altitudes and landing minima. 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.

[Docket Number FRA-2015-0058]

Notice of Application for Approval of Discontinuance or
Modification of a Railroad Signal System

    In accordance with Part 235 of Title 49 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) and 49 U.S.C. 20502(a), this document provides the
public notice that by a document received June 19, 2015, the Canadian
National Railroad (CN) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA) seeking approval for the discontinuance or modification of a
signal system. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2015-0058.
    Applicant: Canadian National Railroad, Mr. Corey Turner, S&C
Supervisor, 297 Rivergate Drive, Memphis, TN 38109.
    The CN seeks approval of the discontinuance of the Automatic Block
Signal (ABS) system from milepost (MP) 398.2 to MP 403, on the Memphis
Subdivision, in Memphis, TN. The reason for the discontinuance is that
the ABS system is no longer needed for operations.
    A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications
concerning the petition, is available for review online at
www.regulatons.gov and in person at the U. S. Department of
Transportation's Docket Operations Facility, 1200 New Jersey Avenue

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

[Docket No. FRA-2020-0004-N-1]

Proposed Agency Information Collection Activities; Comment
Request

AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of information collection; request for comment.

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

SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, FRA seeks approval of the Information
Collection Requests (ICRs) abstracted below. Before submitting these
ICRs to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval, FRA is
soliciting public comment on specific aspects of the activities
identified below.

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before
May 15, 2020.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments on the ICRs activities by mail to
either: Ms. Hodan Wells, Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Office of Railroad Safety, Regulatory Analysis Division, Federal
Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC
20590; or Ms. Kim Toone, Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Office of Information Technology, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200
New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590. Commenters requesting FRA
to acknowledge receipt of their respective comments must include a
self-addressed stamped postcard stating, ``Comments on OMB Control
Number 2130-XXXX,'' (the relevant OMB control number for each ICR is
listed below) and should also include the title of the ICR.
Alternatively, comments may be faxed to<PHONE_NUMBER> or<PHONE_NUMBER>,
or emailed to Ms. Wells at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or Ms. Toone at
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Please refer to the assigned OMB control number in
any correspondence submitted. FRA will summarize comments received in
response to this notice in a subsequent notice and include them in its
information collection submission to OMB for approval.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Hodan Wells, Information
Collection Clearance Officer, Office of Railroad Safety, Regulatory
Analysis Division, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>) or Ms. Kim
Toone, Information Collection Clearance Officer, Office of Information
Technology, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE,
Washington, DC 20590 (telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part 1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days' notice to the public to allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB approval of the activities.
See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8 through 1320.12. Specifically,
FRA invites interested parties to comment on the following ICRs
regarding: (1) Whether the information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute its functions, including whether
the activities will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of FRA's
estimates of the burden of the information collection activities,
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for FRA to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information being collected; and (4) ways
for FRA to minimize the burden of information collection activities on
the public, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology. See 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A); 5
CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
    FRA believes that soliciting public comment may reduce the
administrative and paperwork burdens associated with the collection of
information that Federal regulations mandate. In summary, FRA reasons
that comments received will advance three objectives: (1) Reduce
reporting burdens; (2) organize information collection requirements in
a ``user-friendly'' format to improve the use of such information; and
(3) accurately assess the resources expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C. 3501.
    The summaries below describe the ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
    Title: Railroad Communications.
    OMB Control Number: 2130-0524.
    Abstract: This collection of information is used by FRA to promote
safety in rail operations and to ensure compliance by railroads and
their employees with all the requirements set forth in 49 CFR part 220.
FRA amended its radio standards and procedures to promote compliance by
making the regulations more flexible; require wireless communications
devices, including radios, for specified classifications of railroad
operations and roadway workers; and retitle this part to reflect its
coverage of other means of wireless communications such as cellular
telephones and data radio terminals, to convey emergency and need-to-
know information. The amended rule established safe, uniform procedures
covering the use of radio and other wireless communications within the
railroad industry.

this part is to prevent collisions, derailments, and other occurrences
involving railroad passenger equipment that cause injury or death to
railroad employees, railroad passengers, or the general public, and to
mitigate the consequences of such occurrences to the extent they cannot
be prevented.
    In its final rule issued on November 29, 2013 (see 78 FR 71785),
FRA added requirements for emergency passage through vestibule and
other interior passageway doors and enhanced emergency egress and
rescue signage requirements. FRA also established requirements for low-
location emergency exit path markings to assist occupants in reaching
and operating emergency exits, particularly under conditions of limited
visibility. Moreover, FRA added standards to ensure emergency lighting
systems are provided in all passenger cars and enhanced requirements
for the survivability of emergency lighting systems in new passenger
cars.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket No. FEMA-7899]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA), Mitigation Division.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities, where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP), that are scheduled for suspension on the effective
dates listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the
floodplain management requirements of the program. If FEMA receives
documentation that the community has adopted the required floodplain
management measures prior to the effective suspension date given in
this rule, the suspension will not occur and a notice of this will be
provided by publication in the Federal Register on a subsequent date.

DATES: Effective Dates: The effective date of each community's
scheduled suspension is the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third
column of the following tables.

ADDRESSES: If you want to determine whether a particular community was
suspended on the suspension date, contact the appropriate FEMA Regional
Office or the NFIP servicing contractor.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael M. Grimm, Mitigation Division,
500 C Street SW., Room 412, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
flood insurance which is generally not otherwise available. In return,
communities agree to adopt and administer local floodplain management
aimed at protecting lives and new construction from future flooding.
Section 1315 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage as authorized under
the NFIP, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.; unless an appropriate public body
adopts adequate floodplain management measures with effective
enforcement measures. The communities listed in this document no longer
meet that statutory requirement for compliance with program
regulations, 44 CFR part 59 et seq. Accordingly, the communities will
be suspended on the effective date in the third column. As of that
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the community.
However, some of these communities may adopt and submit the required
documentation of legally enforceable floodplain management measures
after this rule is published but prior to the actual suspension date.
These communities will not be suspended and will continue their
eligibility for the sale of insurance. A notice withdrawing the
suspension of the communities will be published in the Federal
Register.
    In addition, FEMA has identified the Special Flood Hazard Areas
(SFHAs) in these communities by publishing a Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM). The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated
in the fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial
assistance (except assistance

pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act not in connection with a flood) may legally be provided
for construction or acquisition of buildings in identified SFHAs for
communities not participating in the NFIP and identified for more than
a year, on FEMA's initial flood insurance map of the community as
having flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This
prohibition against certain types of Federal assistance becomes
effective for the communities listed on the date shown in the last
column. The Administrator finds that notice and public comment under 5
U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been adequately notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.

National Environmental Policy Act

    This rule is categorically excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR
part 10, Environmental Considerations. No environmental impact
assessment has been prepared.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Administrator has determined that this rule is exempt from the
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act because the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits
flood insurance coverage unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed no longer comply with the statutory
requirements, and after the effective date, flood insurance will no
longer be available in the communities unless remedial action takes
place.

Regulatory Classification

    This final rule is not a significant regulatory action under the
criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of September 30,
1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    This rule does not involve any collection of information for
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
