Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2013-0516; Airspace Docket No. 13-AAL-2]

Establishment of Class E Airspace; Akutan, AK

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action establishes Class E airspace at Akutan Airport,
Akutan, AK. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft
using the new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS)
standard instrument approach procedures at the airport. This action
enhances the safety and management of aircraft operations at the
airport.

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, December 12, 2013. 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 7400.9 and
publication of conforming amendments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard Roberts, Federal Aviation
Administration, Operations Support Group, Western Service Center, 1601
Lind Avenue SW., Renton, WA, 98057; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On July 29, 2013, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish controlled airspace
at Akutan Airport, Akutan, AK (78 FR 45477). Interested parties were
invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005, of
FAA Order 7400.9X dated August 7, 2013, and effective September 15,
2013, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in that Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
Part 71 by establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface within a 3.5-mile radius of Akutan Airport, Akutan,
AK, with a segment extending from the 3.5-mile radius to 5.5 miles
northwest of the airport. This action ensures the safety and management
of aircraft operations at the airport.
    The FAA has determined this regulation only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments
are necessary to keep them operationally current. Therefore, this
regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified
this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The FAA's authority to issue rules
regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the

U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 discusses the authority of the FAA
Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more
detail the scope of the agency's authority. This rulemaking is
promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A,
Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to assign the use of airspace necessary to
ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This
regulation is within the scope of that authority as it establishes
controlled airspace at the Akutan Airport, Akutan, AK.

Environmental Review

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

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

Adoption of the Amendment

    In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation
Administration amends 14 CFR Part 71 as follows:

INFORMATION COLLECTION REQUEST SUPPORTING STATEMENT In Use Testing of On Road Heavy Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles ( Final Rule)

June 2005 Assessment and Standards Division Office of Transportation and Air Quality Office of Air and Radiation U. S. Environmental Protection Agency 1 Information Collection Request 1( a). Title Information Requirements for In Use Testing of On Road Heavy Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles ICR Tracking Number: 1684.08 1( b). Short Characterization The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) is establishing a manufacturer run, inuse emissions testing program for heavy duty diesel trucks. This rule implements a June 2003 settlement agreement between the Engine Manufacturers Association ( EMA) and EPA. Under this in use testing program, manufacturers will measure gaseous and particulate exhaust emissions from diesel engines using portable onboard emission measurement systems. We and the regulated companies will use the data to ensure compliance with the Not to Exceed ( NTE) emission standards, and to characterize the in use emissions performance of these vehicles. Information such as engine family and emission rates for specific pollutants, are examples of what we will require. Manufacturers generally send us the data they collect and keep these records and other pertinent information. We may request to see background detail on any of these records. This ICR is a revision to the existing information collection approved under OMB control number 2060 0287 ( ICR 1684.06). The revisions generally include testing and reporting requirements for heavy duty diesel trucks.

2. Need For and Use of the Collection 2( a). Need/ Authority for the Collection The data we require in this ICR are needed ensure compliance with already promulgated emission standards under Title II of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990. In particular, the authority for this program is contained in sections 202 208 of the Act. This program accomplishes this goal at a greatly reduced cost by using onboard, portable emission measurement systems compared to traditional testing programs that rely on laboratory testing using engine dynamometers.

2( b). Use/ Users of the Data We will oversee the in use testing program and maintain the program database. We will use the data items to verify compliance with the NTE emission standards, help assure compliance with other emission requirements, and characterize the in use emissions performance of heavyduty diesel trucks for emission inventory purposes. Engine manufacturers are expected to use the 2 data for compliance purposes and to aid in the design of future engine emission control technology.

3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and other Collection Criteria 3( a). Nonduplication The information being requested in this ICR is unique to the in use testing program and is not available from other sources.

3( b). Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB We published a proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register to establish the in use testing program on June 10, 2004. The proposed rule included invitations to comment on the ICR. We received comments on several issues related to information collection as part. The most significant comments and our responses are summarized in the following table.

Commenter Comment Response EMA EPA's proposal included a requirement to include more data than necessary, and no EPA notification should be required before making certain vehicle repairs or when an owner refuses to take part in the program. We have reviewed the data reporting requirements and found several items that manufacturers should record and retain, but would not need to report routinely. A substantial reporting requirement remains, because EPA's ability to manage this program depends on an ability to review an extensive amount of information collected from the manufacturers' testing efforts. We have also made changes so that manufacturers do not have to notify us before making certain vehicle repairs or when an owner refuses to take part in the program.

EMA The measurement technology is not ready for measuring PM emissions. We have delayed the start of the program for testing PM emissions and are undertaking an effort to work with manufacturers to quantify measurement accuracies. This issue is discussed further in the final rule documentation.

3( c) Consultations We had many meetings with the Engine Manufacturers Association ( EMA) and several of their member companies that will be subject to the new testing requirements as part of the negotiated program outline and court settlement of their lawsuits. A number of these meetings included discussions of the associated reporting and recordkeeping requirements. These contacts before the proposal occurred over the period from 2002 through mid 2004. The principal participants from EMA included Jed Mandel and Tim French. These meetings continued after the proposal, with frequent exchanges, discussions, meetings, and phone calls. 3 3( d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection We require that manufacturers report test data 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter for each engine family that was tested during the calendar quarter. This reporting frequency is necessary to allow an adequate response to any problem that may arise and to provide further guidance on any additional testing that may be required under the program for a specific engine family.

3( e) General Guidelines This ICR complies with the general guidelines, except for the requirement to retain records for up to five years, as described in 4( b)( ii) below.

3( f) Confidentiality Manufacturers will submit a small amount of confidential information under the terms of the in use testing program. This is needed for use to evaluate the testing data for determining compliance with the emission standards.

3( g) Sensitive Questions We do not ask sensitive questions. This collection complies with The Privacy Act and OMB Circular A 108.

4. Respondents and Information Requested 4( a) Respondents/ NAICS and SIC Codes The respondents are generally involved in the industries shown in Table 2.

Table 1 NAICS and SIC Codes for Respondent Categories Respondent Categories NAICS Codesa SIC Codesb New heavy duty diesel engine manufacturers 336112 and 336120 3711 Commercial Importers of Vehicles and Vehicle Components 811112 and 811198 7533 and 7549 aNorth American Industry Classification System ( NAICS) bStandard Industrial Classification ( SIC) system code.

4( b) Respondents and Information Requested ( i) Data Items 4 For each engine family tested under the program, an engine manufacturer must send us emission data, whether the test vehicle or engine family passed or failed the testing criteria, and other descriptive information. They must also retain test data from incomplete tests, invalid tests, and any additional tests that were voluntarily conducted on an engine family. This information may be submitted to us upon our request. Finally, manufacturers my voluntarily send us a onetime test program description identifying how they will recruit, screen, and test vehicles under the program. Manufacturers must notify us only if they reject a prospective test vehicle from the program for any reason other than those specified in the regulations.

( ii). Respondent Activities Companies will retain most records in electronic form, i. e., computer disks. Some information may be retained as hard copy, but this should be limited. This reduces the resource burden, both for the industry and for us. We will require that the information be kept for five years after testing of the engine family is completed. This time is sufficient to conduct any investigation of a potential in use noncompliance for an engine family that may fail the testing criteria under the program. Finally, engine manufacturers must get our approval prior to testing a vehicle if they want to adjust anything on the engine which is not considered to be an adjustable parameter, or if they wish to perform maintenance on the engine related to an onboard diagnostics trouble code or malfunction indicator light.

All reports, submissions, notifications, and requests for approval must be addressed to: Manager, Engine Programs Group ( 6405 J), U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, DC 20460. Respondents must submit information in an approved EPA information format. This format will be developed jointly by EPA and the engine manufacturers.

5. The Information Collected Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management 5 ( a) Agency Activities We will identify up to 25 percent of each manufacturer's engine families for testing each year ( about 18 families), review a manufacturer's voluntary one time test plan and any subsequent revisions, review any requests to adjust or repair vehicles prior to testing if such adjustments or repairs are not allowed by the regulations, evaluate test results, and direct additional testing for any engine family as specified in the regulations. Manufacturers are required to retain relevant information for five years after the testing results for an engine family are submitted to EPA.

5 ( b) Collection Methodology and Management 5 We currently use computers extensively to collect information from vehicle manufacturers. Based on this approach as a model, all test data will be electronically transmitted directly from the manufacturers to our computer database. The reporting format will be developed in cooperation with the engine manufacturers. The resulting test database will be available to the manufacturers and public.

5 ( c) Small Entity Flexibility No small entities are regulated by the in use testing program.

5( d) Collection Schedule The reporting requirements will begin with the small scale pilot program in calendar year 2005. Manufacturers will report test results for any engine family designated for testing within 30 days after the calendar year quarter in which testing is completed.

6. Estimating Burden and Cost of the Collection The following discussion develops annual burden and cost estimates for the program.

6 ( a) Estimating Respondent Burden The estimates of respondent burden are based on our direct experience in conducting inuse testing of heavy duty trucks with portable emission measurement systems under the 1998 consent decrees with manufacturers who had been found in nonconformance with EPA emission standards, our continued development of portable measurement systems, and our contract to conduct a large scale, in use testing pilot program in Kansas City, Missouri for passenger cars. Further, our estimates are based on a reasonable representation of how manufacturers are likely to design and conduct testing under the new program. Alternatively, if an engine manufacturer decides to contract for testing services, we expect the service provider to similarly design and conduct the testing campaign.

The key work elements involved in the in use testing program are as follows:

S Vehicle recruiting and pre screening of prospective test vehicles will be done by telephone or other means prior to the test site visit.

S All portable measurement systems will be inspected and pre calibrated at the manufacturer's facility prior to deployment in the field.

S Field testing will be conducted by two people. One is an engineer and the other a qualified technician. Both are capable of installing and operating the portable measurement systems, screening vehicles for OBD trouble codes and MIL indications, performing maintenance on the portable systems, etc. The technician is also capable of performing all required inspections of the vehicle's mechanical, electrical, and emission 6 control systems; as well as performing allowable maintenance and the setting of adjustable engine parameters as required.

S The test engineer and technician will coordinate their activities to optimize their productivity. For example, the engineer may acquire and enter a vehicle's history and vital statistics into an electronic database concurrently while the technician performs vehicle inspection and allowable maintenance.

S Test vehicles for an engine family are obtained from two independent sources, as required by the regulation. It is assumed that the sources are located relatively close to each other to minimize travel distances between test sites.

S The test sites are not necessarily in relatively close proximity to a manufacturer's technical center, test center, maintenance facility, or other similar location thus increasing personnel travel and field logistics costs.

S In many cases test vehicles will depart and not return to the same location the same day, necessitating an overnight stay.

S Field personnel have access to the test vehicles and a service location before and after the shift day as needed to install and remove the portable measurement devices. Special arrangements with the vehicle owner/ operator may be necessary.

S Three portable emission measurement systems will be deployed simultaneously during a test site visit when possible, i. e., two vehicles will be tested at the same time.

S All necessary tools, spare parts, testing supplies, office supplies, etc. will be taken to or otherwise supplied at the site of testing to avoid unnecessary delays.

6 ( b) Estimating Respondent Costs ( i) Estimating Labor Costs Labor Costs are based on estimates of " total compensation" reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Employer Cost of Employee Compensation ( BLS, 2003). These values were inflated by the 2.7 percent change in the Consumer Price Index between 2003 and 2004 to estimate 2004 dollars. The values used represent compensation rates for " Goods Producing Industries," which include Mining, Construction and Manufacturing. Total compensation includes wages and salaries, plus paid leave, supplemental pay and insurance.

We translated the BLS worker categories into corresponding ICR labor categories as follows. " Executive, Administrative and Managerial" workers were designated as " Managerial." Correspondingly, " Professional Speciality and Technical" workers were designated as " Technical," and finally, " Precision Production, Craft, and Repair" workers were designated as " Engineer." To represent the complete cost of labor, the total compensation rates have been increased by an additional 100% to account for respondents' overhead costs. Corresponding hourly compensation rates for each category are as follows: Manager, $ 96; Technical, $ 58; and Engineer, $ 64. 7 ( ii) Estimating Operations and Maintenance Costs Operation and maintenance costs include expenses related to maintaining and calibrating the portable emission measurement devices, travel to and from the testing location, and a vehicle incentive.

( iii) Capital/ Start up Costs Companies will need to purchase portable emission measurement devices to conduct inuse testing. We estimate that each of the 13 companies involved will purchase an average of 3 portable units. Each unit is estimated to cost $ 140,000.

( iv) Annualizing Capital Costs Capital costs are annualized using a 7 percent discount rate. The result is a recurring annual cost of $ 34,145 per portable emissions measurement unit, $ 102,435 per manufacturer, or a total of $ 1,331,655 for the industry.

6 ( c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost Our Engine Programs Compliance Group administers emission certification programs. This group has approximately 17 full time employees. We project 40 hours of staff time ( at $ 40 per hour, loaded) for each engine family tested under the new program. Based on testing 18 engine families per year, this comes to approximately 720 hours or $ 28,800 per year to oversee the requirements of the final rule.

6 ( d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs Table 2 shows the annualized capital cost, and annual labor and other costs associated with meeting the new requirements for each engine family. The engine family costs are multiplied by the number of engine families and added to estimated capital costs to arrive at an estimated total annual cost. 8 Table 2 Annual Respondent Burden and Cost   Heavy Duty On Highway Diesel Engine Manufacturers Information Collection Activity Average annual burden and cost per family # of Families Annualized Capital &

6 ( f) Burden Statement The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 278 hours per response, as shown in Table 3. Also, the new requirements account for about 3,614 total burden hours and about $ 1.67 million in cost annually. These estimates include time to obtain test vehicles, conduct testing, prepare and submit reports, and record and keep required information. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15. 10 To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID No. OAR 2004 0072, which is available for public viewing at the Air Docket in the EPA Docket Center ( EPA/ DC), EPA West, Room B102, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8: 30 a. m. to 4: 30 p. m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the Reading Room and the Air Docket is ( 202) 566 1744. An electronic version of the public docket is available through EPA Dockets ( EDOCKET) at http:// www. epa. gov/ edocket.
