SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD No. 2020-0199, dated September 21,
2020, and corrected September 24, 2020 (EASA AD 2020-0199), to correct
an unsafe condition for H[eacute]licopt[egrave]res Guimbal (HG) Model
Cabri G2 helicopters. EASA advises of a report of a crack in a rotating
scissor fitting discovered during maintenance. According to EASA, the
suspected root cause of the crack was corrosion under residual stress.
This condition, if not addressed, could result in failure of the
rotating or non-rotating scissor fitting on either the MRH or the
swashplate guide, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.
    Accordingly, EASA AD 2020-0199 requires an initial and repetitive
inspections of the rotating and non-rotating scissor fittings part
number (P/N) G12-00-200 installed on the MRH or swashplate guide,
respectively. If a crack is detected, the EASA AD requires replacing
the affected MRH or swashplate guide with a serviceable part. The EASA
AD prohibits installing certain MRHs and swashplate guides unless the
initial inspection has been accomplished. The EASA AD also requires
reporting certain information to HG.

FAA's Determination

    These helicopters have been approved by EASA and are approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral
agreement with the European Union, EASA has notified the FAA about the
unsafe condition described in its AD. The FAA is proposing this AD
after evaluating all known relevant information and determining that
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
on other helicopters of the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Guimbal Service Bulletin SB 20-011, Revision C,
and SB 20-012, Revision B, each dated October 5, 2020 (SB 20-011 Rev C
and SB 20-012 Rev B). SB 20-012 Rev B specifies removing the bolts
connecting the two scissor fittings P/N G12-00-200 and accomplishing a
one-time detailed inspection for a crack in certain areas. SB 20-012
Rev B also specifies reassembling the two scissor fittings using
correct bolt torque limits, installing new cotter pins, and reporting
any findings to HG customer service. SB 20-011 Rev C specifies
procedures for a recurring inspection after accomplishment of SB 20-012
Rev B of the same areas of the scissor fittings for a crack as SB 20-
012 Rev B, except without removing the bolts which connect the two
scissor fittings. SB 20-

011 Rev C also specifies reporting any findings to customer service.
    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.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA also reviewed Guimbal Service Bulletin SB 20-011, Revision
B, and SB 20-012, Revision A, each dated September 1, 2020 (SB 20-011
Rev B and SB 20-012 Rev A). SB 20-012 Rev A specifies the same
procedures as SB 20-012 Rev B, except SB 20-012 Rev B revises the
compliance time, adds the EASA AD identification information, and
updates the Situation section description. SB 20-011 Rev B specifies
the same procedures as SB 20-011 Rev C, except SB 20-011 Rev C adds the
EASA AD identification information and updates the Situation section
description.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires, within 30 hours time-in-service (TIS) or 30
calendar days, whichever occurs first, inspecting each rotating and
non-rotating scissor fitting with the bolts connecting the scissor
fittings removed. For this initial inspection, this AD requires
removing the cotter pins and bolts that connect the two scissor
fittings, cleaning the outside surface of each scissor fitting, and
using a flashlight to visually inspect each scissor fitting for a
crack.
    This AD also requires, at intervals not to exceed 50 hours TIS or 6
months, whichever occurs first, repetitive inspections of each scissor
fitting without removing the bolts and separating the two scissor
fittings. For these repetitive inspections, this AD requires cleaning
each scissor fitting, and while using a flashlight, visually inspecting
each scissor fitting for a crack.
    If during any inspection there is a crack, this AD requires
replacing the MRH or swashplate guide, as applicable, before further
flight.
    This AD also prohibits installing an MRH or swashplate guide with
an affected scissor fitting installed, even if new, unless the initial
inspection has been accomplished.

Differences Between This AD and the EASA AD

    The EASA AD requires detailed inspections, whereas this AD requires
cleaning each scissor fitting and visually inspecting each scissor
fitting using a flashlight. The EASA AD also requires reporting certain
information, whereas this AD does not. The EASA AD allows installing a
new (not previously installed) MRH or swashplate guide, whereas this AD
prohibits installing a new MRH or swashplate guide unless the initial
inspection has been accomplished.

Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective
Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days,
upon a finding of good cause.
    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public
justifies foregoing notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule
because the initial inspection must be completed within 30 hours TIS or
30 calendar days, whichever occurs first, and thereafter, the
repetitive inspections must be completed within 50 hours TIS or 6
months, whichever occurs first. Accordingly, notice and opportunity for
prior public comment are impracticable and contrary to the public
interest pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B).
    In addition, the FAA finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 553(d) for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days,
for the same reasons the FAA found good cause to forego notice and
comment.

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written data, views, or arguments
about this final rule. Send your comments to an address listed under
ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2020-1177; Project Identifier MCAI-
2020-01336-R at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the final rule, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this final rule because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you
provide. The agency will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact received about this final rule.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Fred
Guerin, Aerospace Engineer, General Aviation and Rotorcraft Section,
International Validation Branch (AIR-732), FAA, 2200 South 216th St.,
Des Moines, WA 98198; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>; email
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for
this rulemaking.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) do not
apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt
a rule without prior notice and comment. Because the FAA has determined
that it has good cause to adopt this rule without prior notice and
comment, RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 32 helicopters of U.S.
Registry. Labor rates are estimated at $85 per work-hour. Based on
these numbers, the FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this AD.
    Removing and installing the bolt and cotter pins in the initial
inspection takes a minimal amount of time. Inspecting each scissor
fitting takes about 0.5 work-hour for an estimated cost of $43 per
fitting, per inspection cycle. There are 2 scissor fittings installed
on a helicopter, for an estimated cost of $85 per helicopter and $2,720
for the U.S. fleet, per inspection cycle. If required, replacing an MRH
takes about 5 work-

hours and the part costs about $32,000, for an estimated cost of
$32,425 per helicopter. If required, replacing a swashplate guide takes
about 6 work-hours and the part costs about $2,000, for an estimated
cost of $2,510 per helicopter.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General Requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national Government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866, and
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OEI-2011-0096; FRL-10025-76-OMS]

Information Collection Request Submitted to OMB for Review and
Approval; Comment Request; Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule
(Renewal)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted an
information collection request (ICR), Cross-Media Electronic Reporting
Rule (EPA ICR Number 2002.08, OMB Control Number 2025-0003) to the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act . This is a proposed
extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through August 31,
2021. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal
Register on January 15, 2021, during a 60-day comment period. This
notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. A fuller
description of the ICR is given below, including its estimated burden
and cost to the public. 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.

DATES: Additional comments may be submitted on or before July 30, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to EPA, referencing Docket ID No. EPA-
HQ-OEI-2011-0096, online using www.regulations.gov (our preferred

<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or 66150f08010e48020f16120f2603160748010910.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents, which explain in
detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available
in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at
www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West,
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC. The telephone
number for the Docket Center is<PHONE_NUMBER>. For additional
information about EPA's public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: The scope of this ICR is the electronic reporting
components of CROMERR, which is designed to: (i) Allow EPA to comply
with the Government Paperwork Elimination Act of 1998; (ii) provide a
uniform, technology-neutral framework for electronic reporting across
all EPA programs; (iii) allow EPA programs to offer electronic
reporting as they become ready for CROMERRR; and (iv) provide states
with a streamlined process--together with a uniform set of standards--
for approval of their electronic reporting provisions for all their
EPA-authorized programs. Responses to the collection of information are
voluntary. In order to accommodate CBI, the information collected must
be in accordance with the confidentiality regulations set forth in 40
CFR part 2, subpart B. Additionally, EPA will ensure that the
information collection procedures comply with the Privacy Act of 1974
and the OMB Circular 108.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Entities that report electronically
to EPA and state, tribal, or local government authorized programs; and
state, tribal, and local government authorized programs implementing
electronic reporting.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary, required to obtain
or retain a benefit (Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR)
established to ensure compliance with the Government Paperwork
Elimination Act (GPEA)).
    Estimated number of respondents: 132,724 (total).

    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Total estimated burden: 81,985 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $4,710,366 (per year), including $3,620,310
in annualized labor costs and $1,090,056 in annualized capital or
operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 4,569 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. The decrease in respondent burden can be attributed
primarily to two reasons. First, over the past three years, the Agency
made improvements to CDX to enhance efficiencies in end-user
registration, integration, and Help Desk support. These improvements
resulted in reduced burden to respondents. Second, through
technological improvements, the Agency now is able to obtain real world
data via Google Analytics on the frequency and amount of time a
respondent spends accessing CDX web pages and features. Based on this
information, EPA has revised the burden estimates associated with some
of the CDX registration and identity proofing activities. The Agency
believes that these revised burden estimates more accurately reflect
the resources spent by respondents conducting electronic reporting
activities under CROMERR. Note that the decrease in respondent burden
described above was offset by an almost two-fold increase in the number
of respondents that report to state, tribal, and local electronic
document receiving systems. In developing this ICR, EPA revised the
approach used to estimate the number of these reporters. The revised
approach uses shared CROMERR services solution data to supplement
estimates obtained based on analysis of respondent universe growth
rates in EPA program ICRs, which was the previous approach used to
estimate number of reporters. The overall change in respondent burden
is considered an ``adjustment,'' because it results from changes in the
respondent universe and hourly burden estimates used in the development
of the ICR.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Rule 15c3-4; SEC File No. 270-441; OMB Control No. 3235-0497]

  Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange

Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy, Washington, DC

20549-0213.

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act

of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange

Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of

information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this

existing collection of information to the Office of Management and

Budget for extension and approval.

    Rule 15c3-4 (17 CFR 240.15c3-4) (the ``Rule'') under the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934 (17 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (the ``Exchange Act'')

requires certain broker-dealers that are registered with the Commission

as OTC derivatives dealers to establish, document, and maintain a

system of internal risk management controls. The Rule sets forth the

basic elements for an OTC derivatives dealer to consider and include

when establishing, documenting, and reviewing its internal risk

management control system, which are designed to, among other things,

ensure the integrity of an OTC derivatives dealer's risk measurement,

monitoring, and management process, to clarify accountability at the

appropriate organizational level, and to define the permitted scope of

the dealer's activities and level of risk. The Rule also requires that

management of an OTC derivatives dealer must periodically review, in

accordance with written procedures, the OTC derivatives dealer's

business activities for consistency with its risk management

guidelines.

    The staff estimates that the average amount of time a new OTC

derivatives dealer will spend establishing and documenting its risk

management control system is 2,000 hours and that, on average, a

registered OTC derivatives dealer will spend approximately 200 hours

each year to maintain (e.g., reviewing and updating) its risk

management control system. Currently, four firms are registered with

the Commission as OTC derivatives dealers. The staff estimates that

approximately one additional OTC derivatives dealer may become

registered within the next three years. Accordingly, the staff

estimates that the total annualized burden associated with Rule 15c3-4

for five OTC derivatives dealers will be approximately 1,567 hours

annually.\1\

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

    \1\ ((One new OTC derivatives dealer x 2,000 hours to establish

and document its internal risk management control system) + (One new

OTC derivatives dealer x 200 hours to maintain an internal risk

management control system x (3 years/2)) + (Four registered OTC

derivatives dealers x 200 hours to maintain an internal risk

management control system x 3 years))/3 years = 1,567 hours.

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

    The staff believes that the cost of complying with Rule 15c3-4 will

be approximately $258 per hour.\2\ This per hour cost is based upon the

annual average hourly salary for a compliance manager, who would

generally be responsible for initially establishing, documenting, and

maintaining an OTC derivatives dealer's internal risk management

control system. Accordingly, the total annualized cost for all affected

OTC derivatives dealers is estimated to be $404,200.\3\

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

    \2\ The $258 per hour salary figure for a Compliance Manager is

from SIFMA's Management & Professional Earnings in the Securities

Industry 2008, modified by Commission staff to account for an 1800-

hour work-year and multiplied by 5.35 to account for bonuses, firm

size, employee benefits and overhead.

    \3\ 1,567 hours x $258 = $404,200.

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

    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of

the functions of the agency, including whether the information will

have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of

the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the

quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on

respondents, including through the use of automated collection

techniques or other forms of information technology. Consideration will

be given to comments and suggestions submitted in writing within 60

days of this publication.

    Comments should be directed to Charles Boucher, Director/Chief

Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Shirley

Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, Virginia 22312 or send
