DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP07-98-000]

Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application

March 16, 2007.
    Take notice that on March 16, 2007, Southern Natural Gas Company
(Southern), P.O. Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563, filed in
Docket No. CP07-98-000 an application pursuant to section 7(b) of the
Commission's regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA), for
authorization to abandon, by sale, to Atmos Energy Corporation (Atmos),
its Columbus Lateral Line, its Columbus Lateral Loop Line, and its
Columbus Meter Station. Southern also proposes to construct a new meter
station under Section 157.211(a) and its blanket authority granted in
Docket No. CP82-406-000 on September 1, 1982, to replace the Columbus
Meter Station that will be sold to Atmos. The new meter station will be
constructed and installed at the new interconnection between Southern's
facilities and Atmos' facilities on Southern's West Point Line and
Loop. All of the facilities are located in Lowndes County, Mississippi.
    This filing is available for review at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.gov using

the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three
digits in the docket number field to access the document. For
assistance, contact FERC at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or call toll-
free,<PHONE_NUMBER> or TYY,<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    In addition, Southern states that the proposed abandonment by sale
and construction will not cause any adverse impact to its customers or
their requirements because the sale will simply result in relocation of
the existing custody transfer point for the Columbus Delivery Point and
shippers' transactions will not be affected.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to
Patrick B. Pope, Vice President and General Counsel, Southern Natural
Gas Company, Post Office Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563 at
(205) 325-7126, or Patricia S. Francis, Senior Counsel, Southern
Natural Gas Company, Post Office Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-
2563 at<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Pursuant to Section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review will serve to notify Federal and State agencies of
the timing for the completion of all necessary reviews, and the
subsequent need to complete all Federal authorizations within 90 days
of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's FEIS or EA.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date, file with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to
intervene in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules
of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the
Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be

placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the
applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit 14 copies of
filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant
and to every other party in the proceeding. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders in the
proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project, or in support of or in opposition to this project, should
submit an original and two copies of their comments to the Secretary of
the Commission. Environmental commenters will be placed on the
Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive copies of the
environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings associated
with the Commission's environmental review process. Environmental
commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed documents on
all other parties. The Commission's rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project provide copies of their protests
only to the applicant. However, the non-party commenters will not
receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents issued by
the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court review of the
Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests, and interventions via the internet in lieu of paper. See 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.

    Comment Date: April 6, 2007.

Acting Secretary.

796-5333, [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Section 745A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act)
(21 U.S.C. 379k-1) requires that submissions under section 505(b), (i),
or (j) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 355(b), (i), or (j)) and submissions
under section 351(a) or (k) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C.
262(a) or (k)) be submitted in the electronic format specified by FDA,
beginning no earlier than 24 months after FDA issues a final guidance
specifying an electronic submission format.
    The Agency has concluded it is not feasible to describe and
implement the electronic format or formats that would apply to all the
submissions covered by section 745A(a) in one guidance document.
Therefore, FDA issued the guidance for industry ``Providing Regulatory
Submissions in Electronic Format--Submissions under Section 745A(a) of
the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act,'' which describes how FDA
interprets the electronic submission requirements of section 745A(a) of
the FD&C Act (see https://www.fda.gov/downloads/drugs/guidances/ucm384686.pdf).
    To assist sponsors in the submission of data in standardized
electronic format in NDAs, ANDAs, BLAs, and certain INDs, CBER and CDER
have developed technical specifications guidances which provide useful
technical specifications, recommendations, and general considerations
for submitting standardized data and related information in electronic
format. Technical specifications guidances are guidances that explain,
clarify, and define the specific use of data standards

in regulatory submissions. Technical specifications guidances are
available at: https://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/DataStandards/default.htm.

II. Establishment of a Docket

    FDA is establishing a public docket so that anyone can share
information, comments, and ideas on any matters related to the use of
technical specifications that are not specific to the documents or
issues addressed in other dockets. This information will give the
Agency insight into stakeholders' experiences and views regarding the
use of technical specifications guidances and the data standards they
contain. The docket also permits anyone to share information, comments,
or ideas that are specific to one or more technical specifications
guidances. Instructions regarding how to submit comments to specific
technical specifications documents have been posted within the docket.
    This docket will be open for comment simultaneously with several
other dockets that are specific to particular electronic common
technical document (eCTD) submissions and FDA data standards documents.
(For more information on eCTD submissions and FDA data standards, see
https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DevelopmentApprovalProcess/FormsSubmissionRequirements/ElectronicSubmissions/ucm153574.htm and
https://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/DataStandards/default.htm,
respectively). Do not submit comments to this general docket that have
already been submitted to other dockets. As FDA finalizes specific
documents or requests comments on specific issues for which another
docket exists, the Agency will generally consider only those comments
that have been submitted to that specific docket. Do not submit
comments related to another specific docket to this general technical
specifications docket, as the Agency may not consider them. FDA will
not respond directly to questions or requests submitted to this docket
but will consider any submitted information in its work to develop and
issue technical specifications guidances.

    Dated: June 12, 2018.

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rule addressed by this proposal with the date
that it was adopted by the local air agency and submitted by the
California Air Resources Board.

                                             Table 1--Submitted Rule
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Local agency                Rule No.              Rule title              Adopted        Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCAQMD.............................          1112.1  Emissions of Particulate           12/04/09        07/20/10
                                                      Matter and Carbon Monoxide
                                                      from Cement Kilns.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On August 25, 2010, EPA determined that the submittal for SCAQMD
Rule 1112.1 met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR Part 51 Appendix V,
which must be met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    We approved an earlier version of Rule 1112.1 into the SIP on
September 2, 1998 (63 FR 46659).

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule revision?

    PM contributes to effects that are harmful to human health and the
environment, including premature mortality, aggravation of respiratory
and cardiovascular disease, decreased lung function, visibility
impairment, and damage to vegetation and ecosystems. Section 110(a) of
the CAA requires States to submit regulations that control PM
emissions. Rule 1112.1 has been amended to include carbon monoxide (CO)
limits in addition to the existing particulate matter (PM) limits.
Additionally, the compliance procedures and test methods have been
updated. EPA's technical support document (TSD) has more information
about this rule.

II. EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is EPA evaluating the rule?

    Generally, SIP rules must be enforceable (see section 110(a) of the
Act) and must not relax existing requirements (see sections 110(l) and
193). In addition, SIP rules must implement Reasonably Available
Control Measures (RACM), including Reasonably Available Control
Technology (RACT), in moderate PM-10 nonattainment areas, and Best
Available Control Measures (BACM), including Best Available Control
Technology (BACT), in serious PM-10 nonattainment areas (see CAA
sections 189(a)(1) and 189(b)(1)). The SCAQMD regulates a PM-10
nonattainment area classified as serious (see 40 CFR part 81), so Rule
1112.1 must implement BACM with respect to PM-10. The PM requirements
in the submitted rule are not changed and we are not reevaluating them
with respect to stringency as part of this action. Carbon Monoxide
requirements are added, and have no affect on SCAQMD's attainment
status for CO as indicated by the modeling.
    Guidance and policy documents that we use to evaluate
enforceability and other requirements consistently include the
following:
    1. ``Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and
Deviations; Clarification to Appendix D of November 24, 1987 Federal
Register Notice,'' (Blue Book), notice of availability published in the
May 25, 1988 Federal Register.
    2. ``Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies,'' EPA Region 9, August 21, 2001 (the Little Bluebook).
    3. ``State Implementation Plans; General Preamble for the
Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,'' 57
FR 13498 (April 16, 1992); 57 FR 18070 (April 28, 1992).
    4. ``State Implementation Plans for Serious PM-10 Nonattainment
Areas, and Attainment Date Waivers for PM-10 Nonattainment Areas
Generally; Addendum to the General Preamble for the Implementation of
Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,'' 59 FR 41998 (August
16, 1994).
    5. ``PM-10 Guideline Document,'' EPA 452/R-93-008, April 1993.
    6. ``Fugitive Dust Background Document and Technical Information
Document for Best Available Control Measures,'' EPA 450/2-92-004,
September 1992.

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    We believe this rule revision is consistent with the relevant
policy and guidance regarding enforceability, stringency, and SIP
relaxations. The submitted rule ultimately strengthens the SIP by
maintaining PM requirements and allowing alternative limits for CO
which are expected to reduce NOX emissions.

C. Public Comment and Proposed Action

    Because EPA believes the submitted rule fulfills all relevant
requirements, we are proposing to fully approve it as described in
section 110(k)(3) of the Act. We will accept comments from the public
on this proposal for the next 30 days. Unless we receive convincing new
information during the comment period, we intend to publish a final
approval action that will incorporate this rule into the federally
enforceable SIP.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed action merely proposes to approve State law
as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose additional
requirements beyond those imposed by State law. For that reason, this
proposed action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

In addition, this proposed action does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Defense and Space S.A. (Formerly
Known as Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A.)

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2001-12-
18, for certain CASA Model CN-235 series airplanes. AD 2001-12-18
currently requires modification of the rigging of the engine control
cable assembly and replacement of either the entire engine control
cable assembly or a segment of the control cables. Since we issued AD
2001-12-18, we have received reports of new occurrences of cable
disruption on a certain part number; the disruption is caused by
microcracks along the cable surface. This proposed AD would retain the
requirements of AD 2001-12-18. This proposed AD would also require
repetitive replacements of each power lever and condition lever
Teleflex cable with a new or serviceable part and would remove
airplanes from the applicability. We are proposing this AD to prevent
fatigue of the engine control cables, leading to breakage of the
cables, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 4, 2016.

Discussion

    On June 11, 2001, we issued AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66
FR 33014, June 20, 2001). AD 2001-12-18 requires actions intended to
address an unsafe condition on certain CASA Model CN-235 series
airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66 FR 33014,
June 20, 2001), we have received reports of new occurrences of cable
disruption on part number (P/N) 72830-20; the disruption is caused by
microcracks along the cable surface.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0262, dated December 5, 2014 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Airbus
Defense and Space S.A. Model CN-235-100 and -200 airplanes. The MCAI
states:

    Three occurrences of cable disruption were reported in 1999. The
failed parts, having a part number (P/N) 7-44728-20, were part of
the engine control system assembly P/N 7-44728-12. Two cables were
connected to the Power Lever and one cable to the Condition Lever
control. Service records of the affected parts showed that each
cable accumulated more than 14,000 flight cycles (FC).
    The subsequent investigation determined that the disruption was
attributed to fatigue related crack.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to failure of the
engine control system resulting in a loss of the affected engine
control.
    Prompted by this unsafe condition, DGAC [Direcci[oacute]n
General de Aviaci[oacute]n Civil] Spain issued AD 03/00 [which
corresponds to FAA AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66 FR 33014,
June 20, 2001] to require rigging of the throttle stops, and one-
time replacement of the affected engine control cable assembly (P/N
7-44728-12), or the affected cable (P/N 7-44728-20) before exceeding
12,000 FC.
    After that [DGAC Spain] AD was issued, a new occurrence of cable
(P/N 72830-20) disruption was reported. In that case, the affected
cable was part of the Condition Lever control and had accumulated
8,497 flight hours (FH) and 8,858 FC. Fractographic analysis of the
affected cable identified that the fatigue nucleation seemed to have
been induced by microcracks along the cable surface. Additionally,
another case of control cable (P/N 72830-20) failure was reported,
where the affected part accumulated 9,936 FH and 10,552 FC and was
part of the Power Lever control. Investigation of the latter case
identified again a fatigue nucleation to be the cause of the cable
failure.
    To address this potentially unsafe condition, Airbus Military
issued Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) AOT-CN235-76-0001 to
provide a repetitive replacement interval and instructions.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of DGAC Spain AD No. 03/00, which is superseded, but
requires repetitive replacement [at reduced thresholds] of the
affected Teleflex cables.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
8465.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus Defense and Space S.A. has issued Airbus Military Alert
Operators Transmission, dated May 27, 2014. The service information
describes repetitive replacements of each power lever and condition
lever Teleflex cable with a new or serviceable part. 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.

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.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI or Service
Information

    EASA Airworthiness Directive 2014-0262, dated December 5, 2014,
specifies an applicability for Airbus Defense and Space S.A. Model CN-
235-100 and -200 airplanes, serial numbers C-016 through C-073. This AD
specifies an applicability for Model CN-235 airplanes, serial numbers
C-001 through C-015 inclusive and serial number C-074; and Model CN-
235-100 and -200 airplanes, serial numbers C-016 through C-073
inclusive. The retained one-time action in paragraph (g) of this
proposed AD is also applicable to Model CN-235 airplanes, serial
numbers C-001 through C-015 inclusive and serial number C-074, which
are missing from EASA AD 2014-0262, dated December 5, 2014. We
understand EASA considered Model CN-235 airplanes with these serial
numbers that have already performed this one-time action. For this
reason, Model CN-235 airplanes, serial numbers C-001 through C-015
inclusive and serial number C-074 are added to this proposed AD. This
issue has been coordinated with EASA.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 3 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    The rigging required by AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66 FR
33014, June 20, 2001), and retained in this proposed AD takes about 8
work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work-hour.
Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the rigging required by
AD 2001-12-18 is $680 per product.
    The replacement required by AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66
FR 33014, June 20, 2001), and retained in this proposed AD takes about
47 work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work-
hour. Required parts cost about $1,444 per product. Based on these
figures, the estimated cost of the replacement required by AD 2001-12-
18 is $5,439 per product.
    We also estimate that it would take about 47 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 $6,480
per product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this
proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $31,425, or $10,475 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.
