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
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 would amend Class D and Class E airspace in Palm Coast, FL. An
airspace evaluation determined that this update is necessary to support
IFR operations in the area.

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites interested persons to participate in this
rulemaking by submitting written comments, data, or views. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal. The most
helpful comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain
the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. To
ensure the docket does not contain duplicate comments, commenters
should submit only once if comments are filed electronically, or
commenters should send only one copy of written comments if comments
are filed in writing.
    The FAA will file in the docket all comments it receives and a
report summarizing each substantive public contact with FAA personnel
concerning this proposed rulemaking. Before acting on this proposal,
the FAA will consider all comments it receives on or before the closing
date for comments. The FAA will consider comments filed after the
comment period has closed if it is possible without incurring expense
or delay. The FAA may change this proposal in light of the comments it
receives.
    Privacy: In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments
from the public to better inform its rulemaking process. DOT posts
these comments, without editing, including any personal information the
commenter provides, to www.regulations.gov, as described in the system
of records notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at
www.dot.gov/privacy.

Availability of Rulemaking Documents

    An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the
internet at www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking
documents can be accessed through the FAA's web page at www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/airspace_amendments/.
    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received, and any final disposition in person in the Dockets
Operations office (see ADDRESSES section for address, phone number, and
hours of operations). An informal docket may also be examined during
normal business hours at the office of the Eastern Service Center,
Federal Aviation Administration, Room 210, 1701 Columbia Ave., College
Park, GA, 30337.

Incorporation by Reference

    Class D and Class E airspace designations are published in
Paragraphs 5000 and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11,
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1 annually. This document proposes to amend the
current version of that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and effective
September 15, 2022. These updates would be published in the next

FAA Order JO 7400.11 update. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly
available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA
Order JO 7400.11G lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air
traffic service routes, and reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA proposes an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend Class D
airspace and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface for Flagler Executive Airport, Palm Coast, FL, by increasing
the Class D radius to 4.2 miles (previously 4.0 miles), and the Class E
airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to 6.7 miles
(previously 6.5 miles), and by updating the geographic coordinates for
this airport to coincide with the FAA's database. This action would
also update the airport name to Flagler Executive Airport (previously
Flagler County Airport) and the city name to Palm Coast (previously
Bunnell), as well as replacing the terms Notice to Airmen with Notice
to Air Missions and Airport/Facility Directory with Chart Supplement in
the Class D airspace description. Controlled airspace is necessary for
the area's safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR)
operations.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed 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 will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[File No. 500-1]

Amogear Inc.; Order of Suspension of Trading

 February 10, 2014.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Amogear Inc. (``Amogear''), quoted under the ticker symbol AMOG,
because the company has recently been the subject of spam emails
touting the company's shares and because of potentially manipulative
conduct in the trading of the company's shares.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed company.
    Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the securities of the
above-listed company is suspended for the period from 8:30 a.m. EST on
February 10, 2014 through 11:59 p.m. EST on February 24, 2014.

    By the Commission.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
[FR Doc. 2014-03146 Filed 2-10-14; 11:15 am]
BILLING CODE 8011-01-P


require the use of Method 24 of Appendix A of 40 CFR Part 60 for
printing inks and related coatings, a specified procedure to determine
solvent emissions from solvent metal cleaning equipment, and the
procedures set forth in 40 CFR 60.503 at bulk gasoline terminals. EPA
has evaluated this rule and has made the preliminary determination that
this rule is consistent with federal requirements. Therefore, EPA is
proposing to approve this rule.
63. Rule 15A NCAC 02D .2614, ``Determination of VOC Emission Control
System''
    North Carolina originally adopted Rule .2614 on March 13, 2008, and
submitted it for EPA approval on November 19, 2008. It was adopted to
require specific protocols and test methods to determine the collection
or control efficiency of any device or system operated for the purpose
of reducing volatile organic compound emissions. EPA has evaluated this
rule and has made the preliminary determination that this rule is
consistent with federal requirements. Therefore, EPA is proposing to
approve this rule.
64. Rule 15A NCAC 02D .2615, ``Determination of Leak Tightness and
Vapor Leaks''
    North Carolina originally adopted Rule .2615 on March 13, 2008, and
submitted it for EPA approval on November 19, 2008. It was adopted to
test for leaks from gasoline tank trucks and vapor collection systems
and to use procedures described in Method 27 of Appendix A of 40 CFR
part 60 to annually certify truck tanks. EPA has evaluated this rule
and has made the preliminary determination that this rule is consistent
with federal requirements. Therefore, EPA is proposing to approve this
rule.
65. Rule 15A NCAC 02D .2621, ``Determination of Fuel Heat Content Using
F-Factor''
    North Carolina originally adopted Rule .2621 on March 13, 2008, and
submitted it for EPA approval on November 19, 2008. It was adopted to
determine rates for wood or fuel burning sources using the ``Oxygen
Based F Factor Procedure'' described in Section 5 of Method 19 of
Appendix A of 40 CFR Part 60 or other procedures described in Method
19. EPA has evaluated this rule and has made the preliminary
determination that this rule is consistent with federal requirements.
Therefore, EPA is proposing to approve this rule.

III. Effect of This Proposed Action

    The effect of this proposed action is to approve or conditionally
approve the aforementioned requirements for RACT and CTG source
categories into in the North Carolina SIP for the State's portion of
the bi-state Charlotte Area. Today, EPA is proposing to approve SIP
revisions submitted on June 15, 2007, November 19, 2008, February 3,
2010, and April 6, 2010. Additionally, EPA is proposing to approve in
part, and conditionally approve in part, North Carolina's SIP revisions
submitted on October 14, 2004, April 6, 2007, January 31, 2008,
September 18, 2009, and November 9, 2010. EPA is proposing to
conditionally approve North Carolina's SIP as it relates to VOC RACT
because these SIP revisions do not provide the appropriate
applicability thresholds for certain CTG sources.
    In a August 30, 2012, letter, North Carolina committed to provide a
SIP revision to correct the applicability thresholds for these CTG
sources. If North Carolina fails to submit the SIP revision by March
13, 2014, today's

conditional approval will automatically become a disapproval on that
date and EPA will issue a finding of disapproval. EPA is not required
to propose the finding of disapproval. If the conditional approval is
converted to a disapproval, the final disapproval triggers the Federal
Implementation Plan requirement under section 110(c). However, if the
State meets its commitment within the applicable timeframe, the
conditionally approved submission will remain a part of the SIP until
EPA takes final action approving or disapproving the new submittal.

IV. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve several SIP revisions submitted to EPA
by the State of North Carolina, through NC DENR, to address the
NOX RACT requirements for the North Carolina portion of the
bi-state Charlotte Area. Additionally, EPA is proposing to approve in
part, and conditionally approve in part several SIP revisions to
address the VOC RACT requirements and related CTG requirements.
Specifically, North Carolina submitted SIP revisions on October 14,
2004, April 6, 2007, June 15, 2007, January 31, 2008, November 19,
2008, September 18, 2009, February 3, 2010, April 6, 2010, and November
9, 2010, to address NOX RACT, VOC RACT and CTG requirements.
Together, these SIP revisions establish the RACT requirements for the
major sources located in the North Carolina portion of the bi-state
Charlotte Area. In a separate rulemaking, EPA has already taken action
on RACT and CTG requirements for the South Carolina portion of the bi-
state Charlotte Area.
    EPA has evaluated the proposed revisions to North Carolina's SIP,
and has made the preliminary determination that they are consistent
with statutory and regulatory requirements and EPA guidance except for
the applicability for some CTG VOC sources. Consistent with section
110(k)(4) of the Act, EPA is relying upon a commitment by North
Carolina to include appropriate applicability thresholds for VOC RACT
for the all sources addressed by CTG in the Area as a basis for
conditionally approving North Carolina's SIP revisions as they relate
to VOC RACT.

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, 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 CAA. Accordingly, this
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 proposal 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 CAA; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

In addition, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the determination does not have substantial direct effects on
an Indian Tribe. There are no Indian Tribes located within the North
Carolina portion of the bi-state Charlotte nonattainment area.

757-300 Series 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 Boeing Model 757-200, 757-200PF, and 757-300 series airplanes.
This proposed AD would require, for certain airplanes, measuring the
electrical bond resistance at certain stations and doing any applicable
repair; installing support brackets for the hot short protector and new
support clamps for the wire bundles; installing the equipment of the
hot short protector; and modifying an existing wire bundle and
installing a new wire bundle. This proposed AD would also require, for
certain other airplanes, measuring the electrical bond resistance at
certain stations, measuring the electrical bonding resistance between
the hot short protector and rear spar web, and doing any applicable
repair. This proposed AD also would require revising the Airworthiness
Limitations section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness.
This proposed AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the
manufacturer. We are proposing this AD to prevent the center fuel tank
densitometer from overheating and becoming a potential ignition source
inside the fuel tank, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors,
could result in a center fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the
airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by September 22,
2008.

Discussion

    The FAA has examined the underlying safety issues involved in fuel
tank explosions on several large transport airplanes, including the
adequacy of existing regulations, the service history of airplanes
subject to those regulations, and existing maintenance practices for
fuel tank systems. As a result of those findings, we issued a
regulation titled ``Transport Airplane Fuel Tank System Design Review,
Flammability Reduction and Maintenance and Inspection Requirements''
(66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001). In addition to new airworthiness standards
for transport airplanes and new maintenance requirements, this rule
included Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 (``SFAR 88,''
Amendment 21-78, and subsequent Amendments 21-82 and 21-83).
    Among other actions, SFAR 88 requires certain type design (i.e.,
type certificate (TC) and supplemental type certificate (STC)) holders
to substantiate that their fuel tank systems can prevent ignition
sources in the fuel tanks. This requirement applies to type design
holders for large turbine-powered transport airplanes and for
subsequent modifications to those airplanes. It requires them to
perform design reviews and to develop design changes and maintenance
procedures if their designs do not meet the new fuel tank safety
standards. As explained in the preamble to the rule, we intended to
adopt airworthiness directives to mandate any changes found necessary
to address unsafe conditions identified as a result of these reviews.
    In evaluating these design reviews, we have established four
criteria intended to define the unsafe conditions associated with fuel
tank systems that require corrective actions. The percentage of
operating time during which fuel tanks are exposed to flammable
conditions is one of these criteria. The other three criteria address
the failure types under evaluation: single failures, single failures in
combination with a latent condition(s), and in-service failure
experience. For all four criteria, the evaluations included
consideration of previous actions taken that may mitigate the need for
further action.
    We have determined that the actions identified in this AD are
necessary to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel
tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result
in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.
    Boeing has found that no separation was provided for the fuel
quantity indication system (FQIS) wires. A potential hot short of the
FQIS lead wire could cause the densitometer in the center fuel tank to
overheat. In situations where the fuel level in the center fuel tank is
low, the overheated densitometer could ignite flammable fuel vapors
inside the center fuel tank. This condition, if not corrected, could
result in a center fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the
airplane.

Other Related Rulemaking

    On April 29, 2008, we issued AD 2008-10-11, amendment 39-15517 (73
FR 25974, May 8, 2008), applicable to all Boeing Model 757 airplanes.
That AD requires revising the Airworthiness Limitations (AWLs) section
of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) by incorporating
new limitations for fuel tank systems to satisfy SFAR 88 requirements.
That AD also requires the initial inspection of certain repetitive AWL
inspections to phase in those inspections, and repair if necessary.
That AD resulted from a design review of the fuel tank systems. We
issued that AD to prevent the potential for ignition sources inside
fuel tanks caused by latent failures, alterations, repairs, or
maintenance actions, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors,
could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the
airplane. Incorporating AWL No. 28-AWL-22 into the AWLs section of the
ICA in accordance with paragraph (g)(3) of AD 2008-10-11 would
terminate the action in paragraph (h) of this proposed AD.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 757-28A0085,
Revision 2, dated December 11, 2007. The service bulletin describes the
following procedures:
     For certain airplanes: Measuring the electrical bonding
resistance between the stiffeners located at inboard rear spar station
(IRSS) 164.9 and IRSS 179.2 and the rear spar web, and doing any
applicable repair; installing the support brackets of the hot short
protector (HSP) and the new support clamps of the wire bundles;
installing the equipment of the HSP; and modifying the existing wire
bundle and installing a new wire bundle (includes re-routing).
     For certain other airplanes: Measuring the electrical
bonding resistance between the stiffeners located at IRSS 164.9 and
IRSS 179.2 and the rear spar web, measuring the electrical bonding
resistance between the HSP and the rear spar web, and doing any
applicable repair.
    We have also reviewed section 9, Revision November 2007, of the
Boeing 757 Maintenance Planning Data (MPD) Document, D622N001-9
(hereafter referred to as ``the MPD''). Subsection G ``AIRWORTHINESS
LIMITATIONS--FUEL SYSTEM AWLs'' of the MPD describes AWLs for fuel tank
systems and includes AWL No. 28-AWL-22, which is the critical design
configuration control limitation to maintain the design features of the
center fuel tank's HSP during its replacement.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the(se) same type
design(s). This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions
specified in the service information described previously.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 433 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The following table provides the estimated costs for
U.S. operators to comply with this proposed AD.

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), 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.
    You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.
