DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Coast Guard

[Docket No. USCG-2021-0233]

Request for Information on Coast Guard Programs, Regulations, and
Policies for Addressing Climate Change

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Request for information.

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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Coast Guard seeks input from the public on specific
Coast Guard programs, regulations, policies, and procedures that the

change. This information will help the Coast Guard effectively achieve
its missions in a manner that advances the Administration's urgent
priorities of climate change mitigation, adaptation, and resilience. We
further seek this input to ensure that we are implementing programs,
policies, and activities that address (1) the cumulative effects of
environmental damage, above all from climate change and (2) the
disproportionately high, adverse climate-related impacts on
disadvantaged communities, while also promoting a safe, secure, and
resilient marine transportation system that facilitates commerce and
secures national security interests.

DATES: Comments must be submitted to the online docket via https://www.regulations.gov on or before October 6, 2021.

II. Background

    The Coast Guard is issuing this request for information in response
to Executive Orders 13990 and 14008, which have established the
protection of public health and the environment, the mitigation of
climate change, and the advancement of environmental justice as policy
priorities for this Administration. Executive Order 13990, Protecting
Public Health and the Environment and Restoring Science To Tackle the
Climate Crisis,\1\ states that the Administration's policy is to listen
to science; to ensure access to clean air and water; to limit exposure
to dangerous chemicals and pesticides; to hold polluters accountable,
including those that disproportionately harm communities of color and
low-income communities; to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; to bolster
resilience to the impacts of climate change; to restore and expand our
national treasures and monuments; and to prioritize both environmental
justice and the creation of the well-paying union jobs necessary to
deliver on these goals. The Order directs agencies to seek input from
the public and stakeholders, including State, local, Tribal, and
territorial officials, scientists, labor unions, environmental
advocates, and environmental justice organizations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 86 FR 7037 (published Jan. 25, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Order directs agencies immediately to review all regulations,
orders, guidance documents, policies, or any other similar agency
actions undertaken between January 20, 2017, and January 20, 2021, that
are inconsistent with the listed policy priorities. In addition,
agencies are directed to contemplate and consider whether to take any
additional agency actions, within their authority, to fully enforce the
listed policy priorities.
    Executive Order 14008, Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and
Abroad,2 further places the climate crisis at the center of
U.S. foreign policy and national security by deploying the full
capacity of its agencies to combat the climate crisis, by implementing
a Government-wide approach that reduces climate pollution in every
sector of the economy; by increasing resilience to the impacts of
climate change; by protecting public health; by conserving our lands,
waters, and biodiversity; by delivering environmental justice; and by
spurring

well-paying jobs and economic growth, especially through innovation,
commercialization, and deployment of clean energy technologies and
infrastructure. The Order states that successfully meeting these
challenges will require the Federal Government to pursue a coordinated
approach from planning to implementation, coupled with substantive
engagement by stakeholders, including State, local, and Tribal
governments.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ 86 FR 7619 (published Feb. 1, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This request for information is also consistent with Executive
Order 13563, Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review,\3\ which calls
for a regulatory system that is based on the best available science and
protects public health, welfare, safety, and our environment while
promoting economic growth, innovation, competitiveness, and job
creation. The Executive Order directs agencies to consider how best to
promote retrospective analysis of rules that may be outmoded,
ineffective, insufficient, or excessively burdensome, and to modify,
streamline, expand, or repeal them in accordance with what has been
learned. Executive Order 13563 is affirmed in the President's
Memorandum of January 20, 2021, Modernizing Regulatory Review. The
Coast Guard seeks this input recognizing the importance of reevaluating
programs to reduce unnecessary barriers to effectiveness, adapt to new
technologies, and ensure mission resiliency when combating and
responding to climate change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 76 FR 3821 (published Jan. 21, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Coast Guard Missions and Authorities

    The Coast Guard seeks input on how best to use the Coast Guard's
statutory authorities to implement these orders and to reduce the risks
associated with climate change. Many of the Coast Guard's missions are
identified in brief at 6 U.S.C. 468. All of these missions contribute
to the facilitation of safe, secure, and environmentally responsible
commerce through our stewardship of the marine transportation system.
These missions include marine safety; search and rescue; aids to
navigation; living marine resources (fisheries law enforcement); marine
environmental protection; ice operations; ports, waterways and coastal
security; drug interdiction; migrant interdiction; defense readiness;
and other law enforcement.
    These authorities are connected, of course, with the risks
associated with climate change. The Coast Guard also has important
responsibilities in acquiring scientific information, including
information involving the effects of climate change, and in issuing
regulations. While the Coast Guard holds a wide range of regulatory and
operational authorities to fulfill these missions, the Coast Guard
frequently shares responsibility for these missions with other
agencies.\4\ In some cases the Coast Guard has the authority to revise
regulations, guidelines, policies, or processes to address particular
problems in particular ways; in other cases the Coast Guard may be
unable to act without the assistance of another agency, or may be
unable to act at all. Commenters are therefore encouraged to focus
comments on matters within the Coast Guard's authorities, to the extent
known to the commenter.

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

Location of Coast Guard Regulations

    Coast Guard regulations fall within three general categories in the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)--navigation and navigable waters,
shipping, and transportation. Below are the three corresponding titles
in the CFR (and the parts in those titles) where you will find our
regulations:
     33 CFR Chapter I (parts 1 through 199),
     46 CFR Chapters I (parts 1 through 199) and III (parts 400
through 499), and
     49 CFR Chapter IV (parts 400 through 499).
    You can view these regulations on https://www.govinfo.gov/ or
https://www.ecfr.gov.
    In the CFR, you will find bracketed references to rules published
in the Federal Register (for example, xx FR xxxx, date). The Federal
Register publications differ from the CFR in that that, through the
preamble language, we fully explain our reasoning for establishing the
regulations in that CFR part or section and our estimates of the costs
and benefits of those regulations. Rules published since at least 1990
will be available in the Federal Register library on https://www.govinfo.gov/.
    Our rulemaking documents published in the Federal Register also
include a number that identifies our online docket. On https://www.regulations.gov, using that docket number, you should be able to
find supporting and related material we provided for that rule,
including a cost-benefit analysis. In our dockets, you will also find
notices of proposed rulemaking and submissions from interested persons
who commented on our initial proposal for the regulations that appear
in the final rule. The preamble of the final rule contains our
responses to those comments.

Location of Coast Guard Guidance Documents

    You can find Coast Guard guidance documents online via https://www.uscg.mil/guidance. Guidance documents include Navigation and Vessel
Inspection Circulars (NVICs), policy letters, bulletins, handbooks, and
other items meant to inform the public. On this site, guidance
documents are categorized by the Coast Guard office that issued and
maintains the documents.

IV. Request for Information

    The Coast Guard seeks public comments and suggestions on actions we
can take, within our statutory authority, to combat and respond to
climate change. As noted above, our mission areas encompass maritime
operations, safety, security, environmental stewardship, and
facilitation of the maritime commerce that contributes so crucially to
a vibrant U.S. economy.
    The actions we might take could include revising current
regulations, guidelines, policies, or processes that unjustifiably
impede or fail to support the development and use of technologies and
best practices to combat or respond to climate change in the marine
transportation system. We might also orient our efforts to acquire and
disseminate information about the effects of climate change in
particular ways (for example, through use of data.gov).
    When considering your comments and suggestions, we ask that you
keep in mind our missions to ensure a safe, secure, and resilient
marine transportation system that facilitates commerce and secures
national security interests. Commenters should consider the below
principles as they answer and respond to the questions in this notice.
     Commenters should identify, with specificity, the program,
regulation, or policy at issue, providing the Code of Federal
Regulation (CFR) citation where appropriate.
     Commentators should identify, with specificity, small or
large reforms that might be justified in light of the risks posed by
climate change, whether those reforms involve preparedness, mitigation,
adaptation, resilience, or other steps to reduce suffering.
     Commenters should provide, in as much detail as possible,
an explanation why a program, regulation, or policy should be modified,
streamlined, expanded, or repealed, as well as

specific suggestions of ways the agency can better achieve its
statutory and regulatory objectives in light of the executive orders
cited.
     Commenters should provide specific data that document the
costs, burdens, and benefits of existing requirements or programs or
proposed changes to them, to the extent they are available.
    The following questions might help guide your comments and
suggestions. Given the Coast Guard's current missions and statutory
authority:
    1. Do you have suggestions for changes to our current programs,
regulations, or policies that would combat climate change or bolster
resilience to the impacts of climate change or adapt to its impacts,
such as sea level rise?
    2. What do you think the primary implications of climate change are
for our mission areas?
    3. How will climate change affect Coast Guard programs, missions,
regulations, and policies in the future?
    4. How might the Coast Guard orient or re-orient its efforts to
acquire information about the effects of climate change, and how might
it best disseminate that information?
    5. How do you think the Coast Guard can advance the objectives of
environmental justice?
    6. Are you aware of any new or emerging technologies appropriate
for use in maritime facilities or other industry assets that we should
consider when exploring alternatives to address climate change?
    7. Which Coast Guard mission areas do you think are most likely to
be affected by climate change? How would they be affected?
    8. What do you think are the most crucial challenges we will face
to address climate change in our programs, missions, regulations, and
policies?
    9. Do our existing regulations unjustifiably impede or fail to
support the development and use of technologies or best practices that
would help us address climate change?
    10. Are our regulations restrictive on the use of alternative fuels
that produce fewer harmful emissions? If so, how? What, specifically,
might we do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
    11. Do our current polices, such as NVICs or other guidance
documents, impede or fail to support the development and use of
technologies or best practices to address climate change? If so, how?
    12. Is the process of requesting a determination of equivalency to
use an alternative approach to regulatory requirements that might
address climate change burdensome?
    13. What regulatory, policy, or other incentives could the Coast
Guard provide to encourage development and use of technologies or best
practices in the marine transportation system to combat and respond to
climate change?
    14. Are there current Coast Guard regulations, guidance, policies,
or processes that contribute to climate change? If so, please explain
which ones and how.
    15. What sources of existing data or studies can Coast Guard use to
evaluate the economic impact--positive or negative--from reducing the
environmental footprint of USCG programs, regulations, or policies with
regards to climate change?
    16. What do you expect would be the positive or negative
environmental results of the Coast Guard addressing climate change in
the maritime domain, particularly in sensitive areas such as the Arctic
and U.S. coastal zones?
    17. Are there Coast Guard programs, regulations, or policies that
do not bolster resilience to the impacts of climate change,
particularly for those disproportionately impacted by climate change,
and, if so, what are they? How can those programs, regulations, or
policies be modified, expanded, streamlined, or repealed to bolster
resilience to the impacts of climate change?
    18. Do you have any suggestions for any changes to the Coast
Guard's Arctic strategy or any Coast Guard Arctic programs, such as ice
breaking, mapping, and charting missions that might bolster the Coast
Guard's ability to combat and respond to climate change?
    In addition to these general questions, the Coast Guard seeks any
other input on the programs and missions described above that allows
the Coast Guard, within our statutory authorities, to combat or respond
to the climate crisis and adapt to its impacts on the maritime domain.
This request for information is used solely for information gathering
purposes and the responses to this RFI do not bind the Coast Guard to
any further actions related to the response.

    Dated: June 25, 2021.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC; Notice of
Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To Delay
Implementation of a Recently Effective Modification to the Operation of
the Minimum Quantity Order on the NASDAQ OMX PSX

November 28, 2011.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on November 23, 2011, NASDAQ OMX PHLX LLC (``Phlx'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule
change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have
been prepared by Phlx. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    Phlx is filing this proposed rule change to delay implementation of
a recently effective modification to the operation of the Minimum
Quantity Order on the NASDAQ OMX PSX (``PSX'') system. Phlx proposes to
implement the rule change prior to December 31, 2011. The text of the
proposed rule change is available at http://nasdaqomxphlx.cchwallstreet.com/nasdaqomxphlx/phlx, at Phlx's principal
office, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Phlx recently submitted a filing to modify the functionality of its
Minimum Quantity Order.\3\ In the filing, Phlx stated that it expected
to implement the modification on or before November 30, 2011. Due to
delays in programming the change for use on PSX, Phlx is delaying
implementation of the change until December, likely on December 19,
2011. If Phlx does not implement the proposed rule change by December
31, 2011, Phlx will submit a further proposed rule change to reflect
such delay.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 65537 (October 12,
2011), 76 FR 64401 (October 18, 2011) (SR-Phlx-2011-132).
    \4\ Similar change to the Minimum Quantity Order type offered by
The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC and NASDAQ OMX BX, Inc. were implemented
on November 14, 2011. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 65536
(October 12, 2011), 76 FR 64411 (October 18, 2011) (SR-NASDAQ-2011-
140); Securities Exchange Act Release No. 65535 (October 12, 2011),
76 FR 64416 (October 18, 2011) (SR-BX-2011-069).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    Phlx believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 6 of the Act,\5\ in general, and with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,\6\ in particular, in that the proposal is designed
to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote
just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing, settling,
processing information with respect to, and facilitating transactions
in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a
free and open market and a national market system, and, in general, to
protect investors and the public interest. Specifically, Phlx believes
that the change to the functioning of the Minimum Quantity Order will
provide market participants with better control over their trading
patterns, thereby providing them with greater potential to improve the
quality of their order executions. Phlx further believes that the
delayed implementation date of the change will have no material impact
on market participants.

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    Phlx does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \7\ and paragraph (f)(1) of Rule 19b-4
thereunder.\8\

    \8\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-418, OMB Control No. 3235-0485]

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 15c2-
1

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (``OMB'') a request for approval of extension of the
previously approved collection of information provided for in Rule
15c2-1, (17 CFR 240.15c2-1), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    Rule 15c2-1 prohibits broker-dealers from commingling under the
same lien securities of their margin customers with securities of the
broker-dealer and those of other customers without their written
consent. The rule also prohibits the re-hypothecation of customers'
margin securities for a sum in excess of the customer's aggregate
indebtedness. Respondents must collect information necessary to prevent
the re-hypothecation of customer securities, issue and retain copies of
notices of hypothecation of customer securities, and collect written
consents from customers.
    There are approximately 59 respondents. Each of these respondents
makes an estimated 45 responses per year and each response takes
approximately 0.5 hours to complete, resulting in an industry-wide
annual burden of approximately 1,327 hours.
    The retention period for the recordkeeping requirement under Rule
15c2-1 is not less than two years following the date the notice is
submitted. The recordkeeping requirement under this rule is mandatory
to assist the Commission in monitoring respondents who fail to collect
the information required under the rule. This rule does not involve the
collection of confidential information.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information under the PRA unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    The public may view background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: www.reginfo.gov. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent by January 22, 2024 to

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2010-0605; Airspace Docket No. 10-AGL-10]

Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Kokomo, IN

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM).

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

SUMMARY: This supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking would expand
Class E airspace to include the Regional Health System Heliport,
Kokomo, IN. In an NPRM published in the Federal Register August 18,
2010, the FAA proposed to amend controlled airspace at Kokomo Municipal
Airport, Kokomo, IN. The FAA has reassessed the proposal to include
controlled Class E airspace for new standard instrument approach
procedures (SIAP) at the heliport. This action is necessary to further

The Supplemental Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Kokomo Municipal Airport,
Kokomo, IN. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface also would be added to accommodate aircraft using the new
COPTER RNAV (POINT IN SPACE) standard instrument approach procedures at
Regional Health System Heliport, Adjustments to some geographic
coordinates in the description, as well as the name change of
Logansport Municipal Airport to Logansport/Cass County Airport also
would be made and would enhance the safety and management of IFR
operations.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005, of
FAA Order 7400.9U, dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15,
2010, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in this Order.
    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.
Therefore, this proposed 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 will only affect air traffic procedures
and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when
promulgated, would 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, describes
the authority for the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart I, section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would amend controlled airspace in the Kokomo, IN area.

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 NPRM 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 NPRM, 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 NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Kevin
Clark, Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, FAA, 1200 District Avenue,
Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for
this rulemaking.

Background

    The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the
Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has
issued EASA AD 2020-0277, dated December 11, 2020 (referred to after
this as ``the MCAI''), to address the unsafe condition on these
products. The MCAI states:

    Occurrences have been reported of finding cracked IPC R1 blades
on certain Trent XWB engines that were close to their first planned
refurbishment shop visit.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to blade failure
and consequent engine in-flight shut-down (IFSD), possibly resulting
in reduced control of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition and avoid dual engine
IFSD, Rolls-Royce issued the inspection NMSB to provide inspection
instructions and the NMSB to provide information on threshold and
intervals.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
repetitive inspections of the affected parts and, depending on
findings, accomplishment of applicable corrective action(s).

    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating
Docket No. FAA-2021-0381.

FAA's Determination

    This product has been approved by EASA and is approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral
agreement with the European Community, EASA has notified the FAA of the
unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information. The FAA
is issuing this NPRM because the agency evaluated all the relevant
information provided by EASA and determined the unsafe condition
described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of
the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Rolls-Royce Non-Modification Service Bulletin
(NMSB) Trent XWB 72-K633, Initial Issue, dated August 7, 2020. This
service information specifies procedures for performing initial and
repetitive BSIs of the Trent XWB-75, XWB-79, XWB-79B, and XWB-84 IPC R1
blades. 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 ADDRESSES.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA reviewed Rolls-Royce Alert NMSB Trent XWB 72-AK612, Initial
Issue, dated July 9, 2020; Rolls-Royce Alert NMSB Trent XWB 72-AK613,
Initial Issue, dated July 17, 2020; and Rolls-Royce Alert NMSB Trent
XWB 72-AK632, Initial Issue, dated August 7, 2020.
    Rolls-Royce Alert NMSB Trent XWB 72-AK612 describes procedures for
performing a BSI of the Trent XWB-84 IPC R1 blades. Rolls-Royce Alert
NMSB Trent XWB 72-AK613 describes procedures for performing a BSI of
the

Trent XWB-75, XWB-79, XWB-79B, and XWB-84 IPC R1 blades. Rolls-Royce
Alert NMSB Trent XWB 72-AK632 defines the initial inspection threshold
and repeat inspection intervals for Trent XWB-75, XWB-79, XWB-79B, and
XWB-84 IPC R1 blades.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require initial and repetitive BSIs of the
affected IPC R1 blades and, depending on the results of the
inspections, replacement of all 34 IPC R1 blades with parts eligible
for installation.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI or Service
Information

    EASA AD 2020-0277, dated December 11, 2020, and Rolls-Royce NMSB
Trent XWB 72-K633, Initial Issue, dated August 7, 2020, instruct
operators to contact and provide information to Rolls-Royce if any IPC
R1 blade is found cracked during the inspection, while this proposed AD
requires operators to remove and replace all 34 IPC R1 blades if a
crack is found during the inspection.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 15 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs

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

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
replacements that would be required based on the results of the
proposed inspection. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need this replacement.

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

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

    The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

    Abstract: Information collected under this rulemaking is necessary
to implement the requirements of the Significant New Alternatives
Policy (SNAP) program for evaluating and regulating substitutes for
ozone-depleting substances (ODS) being phased out under the
stratospheric ozone protection provisions of the Clean Air Act (CAA)
and globally under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the
Ozone Layer. Under CAA Section 612, EPA is authorized to identify and
restrict the use of substitutes for class I and class II ODS (listed in
40 CFR part 82, subpart A, appendices A and B) where EPA determines
other alternatives are available or potentially available that reduce
overall risk to human health and the environment. Any producer of a new
substitute must submit a notice of intent to introduce a substitute
into interstate commerce 90 days prior to such introduction. The
producer must also provide EPA with information covering a wide range
of health and environmental factors. The SNAP program, based on
information collected from the manufacturers, formulators, and/or
sellers of such substitutes, identifies acceptable substitutes.
Responses to the collection of information are mandatory under Section
612 for anyone who sells or, in certain cases, uses substitutes for an
ODS after April 18, 1994, the effective date of the final rule.
Measures to protect confidentiality of information collected under the
SNAP program are based on EPA's confidentiality regulations (40 CFR
2.201 et seq., or Subpart B). Submitters may designate all or portions
of their forms or petitions as confidential. EPA requires the
submitters to substantiate their claim of confidentiality. Under CAA
Section 114(c), emissions information may not be claimed as
confidential.
    To develop the lists of acceptable and unacceptable substitutes,
the Agency must assess and compare ``overall risks to human health and
the environment'' posed by use of substitutes in the context of
particular applications. EPA requires submission of information
covering a wide range of health and environmental factors. These
include intrinsic properties such as physical and chemical information,
atmospheric effects including ozone depleting potential and global
warming potential, toxicity, and flammability, and use-specific data
such as substitute applications, process description, environmental
release data, exposure data during use of a substitute, environmental
fate and transport, and cost information of the substitute. Once a
completed submission has been received, the SNAP program will commence
its review. Any substitute which is a new chemical must also be
submitted to the Agency under the Premanufacture Notice program under
the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Alternatives that will be used
as sterilants must be filed jointly with EPA's Office of Pesticide
Programs and with SNAP.
    Form Numbers: 1265-14.
    Respondents/affected entities: Manufacturers, importers,
formulators and processors of substitutes for ODS.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 82.176).
    Estimated number of respondents: 180 (per year).
    Frequency of response: Annual.

    Total estimated burden: 5,557 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $471,714, which includes $22,938 annualized
capital or O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 814 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. The Agency anticipates the number of submissions to
the SNAP program to remain the same as the previous ICR during the next
3 years. Many of the recent SNAP submissions, and those anticipated
over the next three years, are for chemicals previously found
acceptable for other SNAP applications or for blends of alternatives
already found acceptable. For the expected submissions, the burden of
developing supporting information for the majority of these submissions
is expected to decrease because it is easier to find and review
information for substitutes that have been reviewed previously. EPA
estimates a reduction in the number of respondents responsible for
recordkeeping for substitutes acceptable subject to use conditions and
narrowed use limits. The increased availability of alternatives reduces
the need for industry to use alternatives previously listed as
acceptable subject to narrowed use limits.

[Docket No. FAA-2020-0592; Project Identifier AD-2020-00251-E]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company Turbofan
Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all General Electric Company (GE) GEnx-1B64/P2, GEnx-1B67/P2, GEnx-
1B70/75/P2, GEnx-1B70/P2, GEnx-1B70C/P2, GEnx-1B74/75/P2, GEnx-1B76/P2,
GEnx-1B76A/P2, and GEnx-2B67/P model turbofan engines with a certain a
high-pressure turbine (HPT) rotor stage 2 disk installed. This proposed
AD was prompted by a report of the potential for undetected subsurface
anomalies formed during the manufacturing process that could result in
uncontained failure of the HPT rotor stage 2 disk. This proposed AD
would require an immersion ultrasonic inspection (USI) of the HPT rotor
stage 2 disk and, depending on the results of the inspection,
replacement of the HPT rotor stage 2 disk with a part eligible for
installation. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by July 27,
2020.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2020-0592;
Project Identifier AD-2020-00251-E'' at the beginning of your comments.
The FAA specifically invites comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this NPRM. The FAA will
consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this
NPRM because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information 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 FAA will also post a report summarizing each substantive
verbal contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    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 NPRM 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 NPRM, 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 NPRM. Submissions containing
CBI should be sent to Mehdi Lamnyi, Aerospace Engineer, ECO Branch,
FAA, 1200 District Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that
the FAA receives which is not specifically designated as CBI will be
placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.

Discussion

    The FAA received a report of the potential for undetected
subsurface anomalies formed during the manufacturing process that could
result in uncontained failure of the HPT rotor stage 2 disk. During an
investigation by GE into melt-related material anomalies, a subsurface
anomaly was found in an early production HPT rotor stage 2 disk. This
type of subsurface anomaly has the potential to cause the failure of
the HPT rotor stage 2 disk. In response, GE published service
information that introduces inspections to prevent failure of the HPT
rotor stage 2 disk. This condition, if not addressed, could result in
uncontained HPT rotor stage 2 disk release, damage to the engine, and
damage to the airplane.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed GE GEnx-1B Service Bulletin (SB) 72-0463 R01,
dated January 6, 2020, and GE GEnx-2B SB 72-0402 R01, dated January 8,
2020. The service information describes procedures for performing an
immersion

USI of the affected HPT rotor stage 2 disks on GEnx-1B and GEnx-2B
model turbofan engines. 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

    The FAA is proposing this AD because the Agency evaluated all the
relevant information and determined the unsafe condition described
previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of the same
type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require an immersion USI of the HPT rotor
stage 2 disk and, depending on the results of the inspection,
replacement of the HPT rotor stage 2 disk with a part eligible for
installation.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 276 engines
installed on airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                       hour = $680.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
replacements that would be required based on the results of the
proposed inspection. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need this replacement:

                                               On-Condition Costs

                                                $170.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The FAA 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) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES
