Estimating Emission Rates

   We weighted the individual FTP standards together using the proportions shown in Table 26, which yields an aggregate MOVES gasoline FTP useful life standard shown below.  While we do not expect the model to produce these rates, it is a useful benchmark for the modeled rates.  The distinction between NMHC and NMOG was ignored in calculating the aggregate FTP, and would have yielded only minor variation in the final aggregate FTP (Table 27).

   We then compared this aggregate FTP standard to the emissions calculated by MOVES 2010a.  The Physical Emission Rate Estimator (PERE), modified to produce Scaled Tractive Power (STP) distributions, was used to generate the bin mix of a regulatory class 41 vehicle on the federal test procedure (FTP) drive cycle.  The STP modification required shifting the vehicle weight to match Source Type 32 in MOVES (2.06 Tons).   We pulled rates by hour from the MOVES DB for the age 0 -3 group, and added in a cold start (operating mode 108) and a hot start (operating mode 102) from the MOVES database. The modified version of PERE produced the operating mode distribution shown in Table 28.

   Using this operating mode distribution, we constructed a simulated FTP out of four components (bag 1/3 running, cold start, hot start, and bag 2 running).  We constructed bag 1 (cold start + bag 1/3 running) and bag 3 (hot start + bag 1/3 running)  and weighted the resulting components together according to the FTP formula, and compared the 2007 and later rates in MOVES to the aggregate standard shown in Table 29.  The MOVES 2010a estimates at age 3 are 2.5x to 11x the standard, which indicates that the average vehicle is significantly out of compliance with the 2010 standard.

Based on this analysis, we reviewed In Use Verification Program (IUVP) data from MYs 2004-2008 vehicles with estimated test weights of 7,500 pounds-or-above to determine the average in-use compliance ratio.  Non-sales weighted, and after accounting for the individual standards applicable to each vehicle, this yielded average ratios of FTP to the standard of 0.42 (NMOG) and 0.23 (NOx) (Table 30and

Figure 6).  MOVES, which includes all vehicles and is a broader sample than the IUVP program, would be expected to yield somewhat higher emissions.  Further, while the Heavy Duty 2007 rule does not fully phase-in until 2010, we would anticipate that manufacturers would achieve similar compliance ratios as in past MYs.

   To produce similar compliance ratios in MOVES, we applied the following ratios to the running and start rates, incorporating the assumption that it is much more difficult to reduce start emission than running emissions.

   Applying these ratios against the MOVES2010 default rates yields the new regulatory class 41 rates.  These are shown compared against the aggregate FTP from Table 27.

   This process yielded a number of medium duty rates, which by operating mode, were lower than the Light Duty Tier 2 Bin 8 rates.  Specifically, most of the higher power modes such as 27-30 and 37-40 were reduced to below the Bin 8 rates.  These operating modes are likely the least affected by the MY 2010 HD Gas standards, which include no SFTP component.

   To account for the lack of SFTP control on these vehicles we bounded the emission rates so that rates for individual operating mode could be lower than Bin 8 rates * 1.2, and no higher than the MD rates currently in MOVES.  This yielded rates that are slightly higher than the unbounded rates, with NOx is slightly over the Aggregate FTP standard.  These rates were phased in at a rate of 25 percent per year between MY 2007 and 2010 and placed in the MOVES emission rate database.

Changes to Heavy- and Light-Duty Diesel Vehicle Rates
   We updated sulfate, sulfur dioxide, organic carbon and elemental carbon emissions for 2007-and-later diesel vehicles based on data from the ACES study. In 2007-and-later diesel vehicles, more of the fuel sulfur is converted to SO4 and less to SO2 compared with earlier diesel vehicles.  However, in this update, total PM is unchanged, so organic carbon is reduced.  The details of the data, its analysis, and its application in MOVES are explained in a separate memo.,

 Other Changes
   Other changes made for MOVEST3NPRM did not impact MOVES results, but improved our ability to generate the necessary emission rates for air quality modeling.  For example, we made finer divisions in MOVES model year groups to allow the phase-in of emission standards. More important in this category of changes were changes to allow MOVES to run a cloud computing environment.   This was necessary because evaporative emissions were expected to be important in this analysis, so we wanted to be sure to capture fine distinctions in fuel characteristics and ambient temperatures.  Instead of running MOVES to generate state-level inventories as we did for the recent Heavy Duty Greenhouse Gasoline rule analysis, we ran MOVES in emission rate mode and calculated rates for "representative counties."   As explained in the RIA for this proposal, these rates were then applied to other similar counties. This approach allowed us great precision in modeling temperatures, but it required more than 14,000 runs for each scenario-- an unprecedented requirement for computing power.
   To meet this requirement, we adapted MOVES to run in a cloud computing environment with a Linux operating system.  We improved MOVES error handling and the ability to distribute MOVES functions among computers.  We truncated the IMCoverage table to facilitate the input of local inspection and maintenance data for each county.  We adjusted the zoneroadtype and sccroadtypedistribution table to assure that all roadtypes could be modeled in all counties.  We also made changes to reduce the runtime for each run.
Changes to Model Year Groups

   MOVES2010a grouped emissions for 2021-and-later model years together with a single emission rate.  Because the Tier 3 analysis had to estimate the impact of phasing in a new emission standard in this time period, MOVES was revised to use year-by-year model year groups for all years 2021 through 2030.  We also introduced a new model year group of 2031-2050.  This change required modification of many MOVES tables, but had no impact on emission estimates for the baseline and reference case.
Changes to County Allocations

   In the tables zoneroadtype and sccroadtypedistribution, zeros were replaced with the value 10-15.  This facilitates our approach of using representative counties; it allows the model to calculate emission rates on roadtypes that do not exist in a given county so they can be applied to a similar county that does have that roadtype.
Repair of Errors
   An error was found in the algorithm for aggregating Inspection /Maintenance effects to the state-level.  This was fixed, facilitating the use of the MOVES model at the national level for inventory calculations. We also updated the modelyear groups used for ammonia extended idle emissions to allow the model to correctly generate these emissions. And we updated model year groups for sulfate, NO and NO2 to allow the model to correctly estimate emissions for model year 2021.
Changes to Facilitate Large Numbers of Runs

   For air quality modeling, we ran MOVES for a very large number of counties.  To facilitate this, we adapted MOVES to improve the model's operation in diverse computing environments, including large computer clusters and services available over the Internet from commercial providers.
   The MOVES air quality runs were performed with IMCoverage tables for each county.  This change avoided conflicts between the default and the input data.
   MOVES now provides a message when users create a user input database with the same name as an existing database, and we added the ability to omit roadtypes when modeling evaporative processes, thus facilitating faster production of RatePerProfile and RatePerVehicle output.  We improved the use of indices to speed model runs.
   We made many changes to the MOVES code to facilitate running MOVES on Linux operating systems, to allow the operation of MOVES with local MySQL, to allow separate processing of "TODO" and "Done" files, to better manage independent "worker" computers, to improve the MOVES log file, and to allow longer names for MOVES worker and master computers
   None of the changes described in this subsection changed MOVES emission results.
Impact of MOVES Changes
   To assess the overall impact of the MOVES changes described above in emissions with the updated version of MOVES were evaluated by conducting a national run with MOVES2010a and the updated MOVES version, using the reference case fuels described the Tier 3 RIA for 2017.  The results are shown in Table 34 Impact of MOVES updates to U.S. emissions in 2017 (annual tons).

   As illustrated in the table, the revision to air toxics inputs had a major impact on the emissions of these compounds.  Moreover, the changes between MOVES2010 and MOVEST3NPRM led to a substantial reduction in the emissions of CO and VOC.  These reductions will be seen in both the reference and control cases of the Tier 3 NPRM analysis.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information
collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was
published on April 9, 2015. 14 CFR part 139 establishes certification
requirements for airports serving scheduled air carrier operations in
aircraft with 10-30 seats. These requirements result in information
collections from respondents.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 22, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be
addressed to the attention of the Desk Officer, Department of
Transportation/FAA, and sent via electronic mail to
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or faxed to<PHONE_NUMBER>, or mailed to
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20503.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Notice of Filing and Immediate
Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change by New York Stock Exchange LLC
Amending Exchange Rule 104T To Make Certain Technical Amendments to the
Rule To Conform it to the Exchange's Recently Instituted New Market
Model Pilot

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act''),\2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on November 4, 2008, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE''
or the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I
and II below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 104T (Dealings by DMMs) to make
certain technical amendments to the rule to conform it to the
Exchange's recently instituted New Market Model Pilot.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available at http://
www.nyse.com, NYSE's principal office, and 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 self-regulatory organization
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 those 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 parts of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange seeks to make certain technical amendments to: (i)
NYSE Rule 104T (Dealings by DMMs) to include rule language governing
DMM quoting requirements that was inadvertently not included in the
rule text; (ii) conform the rule language of NYSE Rule 104T governing
price improvement with changes approved by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``SEC'' or ``Commission'') in a separate filing; and (iii)
clarify the rule text of NYSE Rules 70, 104T and 104 as it pertains to
Floor brokers and DMMs reserve functionality.
    On October 24, 2008, the Commission approved the operation of a
pilot for the Exchange's New Market Model.\4\ As part of this new model
the functions formerly carried out by specialists on the Exchange will
be replaced by a new market participant, to be known as a Designated
Market Maker (``DMM''). While there are some similarities in the manner
in which DMMs will operate, there are some major differences as well.
For example, DMMs will continue to be assigned individual NYE-listed
[sic] securities as they were under the specialist system, and have an
affirmative obligation with respect to maintaining a fair and orderly
market for trading those assigned securities. Unlike the specialist
system, each DMM will also have a minimum quoting requirement \5\ in
its assigned securities but will no longer have a negative obligation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58845 (October 24,
2008), 73 FR 64379 (October 29, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2008-46) (approving
certain rules to operate as a pilot scheduled to end October 1,
2009).
    \5\ DMMs will be required to maintain displayed bids and offers
at the National Best Bid or Offer (``NBBO'') for a certain
percentage of the trading day in assigned securities. Specifically,
with respect to maintaining a continuous two-sided quote with
reasonable size, DMMs must maintain a bid or offer at the NBBO
(``inside'') for securities in which the DMM is registered at a
prescribed level based on the average daily volume of the security.
Securities that have a consolidated average daily volume of less
than one million shares per calendar month are defined as Less
Active Securities and securities that have a consolidated average
daily volume of equal to or greater than one million shares per
calendar month are defined as More Active Securities.
    For Less Active Securities, a specialist unit must maintain a
bid or an offer at the NBBO for at least 10% of the trading day
during a calendar month. For More Active Securities, a specialist
unit must maintain a bid or an offer at the NBBO for at least 5% or
more of the trading day during a calendar month. DMMs will be
expected to satisfy the quoting requirement for both volume
categories in their assigned securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The implementation of these changes required the Exchange to amend
its previous rule governing specialist conduct, former NYSE Rule 104
(Dealings by Specialists). As approved, the New Market Model will be
phased \6\ into the Exchange's marketplace to allow for the careful
monitoring of technological and trading pattern changes that are the
core of its operation. The Exchange therefore created transitional NYSE
Rule 104T in order to govern DMM conduct during the first phase of the
pilot. DMMs were subject to the quoting requirement upon implementation
of the Pilot; however, the language imposing the quoting requirement
was inadvertently not included in NYSE Rule 104T. Through this filing
the Exchange seeks to correct that oversight and add subparagraph ``k''
to Rule 104T which will read as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Pursuant to the implementation schedule, no later than five
weeks after Commission approval, DMMs will still receive information
about orders that are at or between the Exchange quote. DMMs must
continue to abide by their affirmative obligations, meeting his or
her requirements to maintain displayed bids and offers at the NBBO
and re-enter liquidity pursuant to NYSE Rule 104T (``Phase 1'').
After the fifth week of the operation of the Pilot, Phase 1 will be
completed and NYSE Rule 104T will cease operation. Once NYSE Rule
104T ceases operation, DMMs will be subject to new NYSE Rule 104
(Dealings and Responsibilities of DMMs) in Phase 2.

    With respect to maintaining a continuous two-sided quote with
reasonable size, DMM units must maintain a bid or an offer at the
National Best Bid and National Best Offer (``inside'') at least 10%
of the trading day for securities in which the DMM unit is
registered with an average daily volume on the Exchange of less than
one million shares, and at least 5% for securities in which the DMM
unit is registered with an average daily trading volume equal to or
greater than one million shares. Time at the inside is calculated as
the average of the percentage of time the DMM unit has a bid or
offer at the inside. In calculating whether a DMM is

meeting the 10% and 5% measure, credit will be given for executions
for the liquidity provided by the DMM. Reserve or other hidden
orders entered by the DMM will not be included in the inside quote
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
calculations.

    The Exchange further seeks to amend Exchange Rule 104T(e) to remove
legacy language related to a requirement that specialists be
represented in the quote in a ``meaningful amount'' before they can
send a trading message that will provide price improvement to arriving
marketable orders (i.e., those orders capable of trading in the current
market upon arrival).
    On September 11, 2008, the Commission approved the amendment of
former NYSE Rule 104(e) to remove the requirement that specialists be
represented in the quote in a ``meaningful amount'' before he or she
may send a trading message that will provide price improvement to
arriving marketable orders (i.e., those orders capable of trading in
the current market upon arrival).\7\ Pursuant to that amendment
specialists were able to provide algorithmically-generated price
improvement to all or part of a marketable incoming order provided that
the price improvement to be supplied by the specialist is at least one
cent. NYSE Rule 104T was not updated to reflect this change and the
Exchange seeks to update the language to reflect that amendment through
this filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58517 (September 11,
2008), 73 FR 53914 (September 17, 2008) (SR-NYSE-2008-61).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to the changes approved in the New Market Model, Floor
brokers and DMMs may maintain reserve interest consistent with the
Exchange Rules governing Reserve Orders.\8\ NYSE Rule 104T(d)(1) was
not conformed to reflect this language. NYSE Rules 70(b)(ii) and 104(c)
have language to express this concept; however, the language in the two
rules is inconsistent. Specifically, NYSE Rule 70 states in pertinent
part, ``A Floor broker shall have the ability to maintain undisplayed
reserve interest consistent with Exchange rules governing Reserve
Orders.'' NYSE Rule 104 states, ``A DMM unit may maintain non displayed
reserve interest consistent with Exchange Rules governing Reserve
Orders.'' The Exchange seeks to revise the rule language of NYSE Rules
70(b)(ii), 104T(d)(1) and 104(c) to make them consistent and to clarify
that Floor brokers and DMMs may maintain reserve interest consistent
with Exchange rules governing Reserve Orders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See NYSE Rule 13.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange further seeks to amend typographic errors in NYSE
Rules 123A, 123B and 1000. Specifically, in NYSE Rule 123A
Supplementary Material.32, the NYSE deleted the word ``specialist''
from the first sentence and did not insert ``DMM'' in its place.
Additionally, the Exchange did not delete the word ``specialist'' from
the last paragraph of the same section and insert ``DMM.'' The Exchange
now proposes to insert ``DMM'' in the first sentence of NYSE Rule 123A
Supplementary Material.32 so that it will read, ``If a report has not
been received from a DMM on an order which he or she should have
executed, the DMM is responsible for any loss which may be sustained up
to and including the next opening price.'' The Exchange further seeks
to amend the last sentence of the last paragraph to read, ``In no case
where it is deemed that a DMM did not send out a report shall the
liability of the DMM extend beyond the closing price on the business
day following the day of the transaction.''
    Finally, NYSE Rule 123B as approved in the New Market Model,
contains two subparagraphs lettered ``d''. The Exchange seeks to change
the second subparagraph ``d'' to ``e'' in order to correct the
lettering. Similarly, NYSE Rule 1000, as approved in the New Market
Model deleted the provisions of subparagraph (e)(ii)(D) and did not
change the letter of the subsequent subparagraph (e)(ii)(E) to ``(D)''.
As such NYSE Rule subparagraph (e)(ii) is lettered ``A'' through E
without a ``D'' letter designation. The Exchange therefore seeks to
change the current letter ``E'' of that provision to ``D'' to allow for
accurate consecutive lettering of the rule.
2. Statutory Basis
    The bases under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``1934
Act'') for this proposed rule change are the requirements under Section
6(b)(5) that the rules of an exchange be designed to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, 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. The
Exchange believes that the instant proposal is consistent with the
above principals [sic] in that it conforms the rule language to the
approved New Market model which the Exchange anticipates will enhance
the liquidity in the market and foster increased competition among
Exchange market participants thus providing Exchange customers with
additional opportunities for price improvement.

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change: (1) Does not
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (2) does not impose any significant burden on competition;
and (3) by its terms, does not become operative for 30 days after the
date of filing, or such shorter time as the Commission may designate if
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest,
the proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \9\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \10\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) normally does
not become operative for 30 days after the date of filing.\11\ However,
Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) permits the Commission to designate a shorter
time if such action is consistent with the protection of investors and
the public interest. NYSE requested that the Commission waive the 30-
day operative delay, as specified in Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\12\ which
would make the rule change effective and operative upon filing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii). In addition, Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) requires the self-regulatory organization to give the
Commission notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change,
along with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change,
at least five business days prior to the date of filing of the
proposed rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the
Commission. NYSE has satisfied this requirement.
    \12\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because it will conform the rule text to what was previously approved
by the Commission in prior Exchange proposed rule changes.\13\ Waiving
the operative delay will ensure that the rule text of the Exchange is
accurate and will avoid potential confusion by

eliminating technical errors.\14\ Accordingly, the Commission
designates the proposed rule change effective and operative upon filing
with the Commission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See supra notes 4 and 7.
    \14\ For purposes only of waiving the operative delay for this
proposal, the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact
on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission may summarily abrogate 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.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I.   Background

), EPA published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) for the State of
Delaware.  The NPR proposed approval of the Delaware SIP revision for
Transportation Conformity.  This action is being taken under the Clean
Air Act.  These SIP revisions were proposed under a procedure called
parallel processing, whereby EPA proposes a rulemaking action
concurrently with a state's procedures for amending its SIP.  The
state's proposed SIP revisions were submitted to EPA on July 9, 2007 by
the Delaware Department of  Natural Resources and Environmental Control
(DNREC).  No comments were received during the public comment period on
EPA's November 7, 2007 proposal.  DNREC formally submitted the final SIP
revision on November 1, 2007.  That final submittal had no substantial
changes from the proposed version submitted on July 9, 2007.  A detailed
description of Delaware's submittal and EPA's rationale for its proposed
approval were presented in the November 7, 2007 notice of proposed
rulemaking and will not be restated in its entirety here.

II.   Summary of SIP Revision

Delaware's SIP revision contains the State Regulation 1132, Delaware
Transportation Conformity Regulation.  This SIP revision addresses the
three provisions of the EPA Conformity Rule required under SAFETEA-LU:
40 CFR 93.105 (consultation procedures); 40 CFR 93.122(a)(4)(ii)
(control measures) and, 40 CFR 93.125(c) (mitigation measures).

We reviewed the submittal to assure consistency with the February 14,
2006 “Interim Guidance for Implementing the Transportation Conformity
provisions in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation
Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU).” The guidance document
can be found at http://epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/transconf/policy.htm.
 The guidance document states that each state is only required to
address and tailor the aforementioned three sections of the Federal
Conformity Rule to be included in their state conformity SIPs.

EPA's review of Delaware’s proposed SIP indicates that it is
consistent with EPA’s guidance in that it includes the three elements
specified by SAFETEA-LU.  Consistent with the EPA Conformity Rule at 40
CFR 93.105 (consultation procedures), Regulation 1132.3 identifies the
appropriate agencies, procedures, and allocation of responsibilities as
required under 40 CFR 93.105 for consultation procedures.  In addition,
Regulation 1132.3 provides for appropriate public consultation/public
involvement consistent with 40 CFR 93.105.  With respect to the
requirements of 40 CFR 93.122(a)(4)(ii) and 40 CFR 93.125(c), Regulation
1132.4 specifies that written commitments for control measures and
mitigation measures for meeting these requirements will be provided as
needed.

Other specific requirements of the Delaware SIP revision for
Transportation Conformity and the rationale for EPA's proposed action
are explained in the NPR and will not be restated here.  No public
comments were received on the NPR.

III.   Final Action

EPA is approving the Delaware SIP revision for Transportation Conformity
as a revision to the Delaware State SIP.

IV.   Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A.   General Requirements

Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).  Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA’s role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.  Accordingly,
this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements
and does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by
state law.  For that reason, this 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 (Public Law 104-4);

does not have Federalism implications as specified in Executive Order
13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);

is not an economically significant regulatory action based on health or
safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23,
1997);

is not a significant regulatory action subject to Executive Order 13211
(66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);

is not subject to requirements of section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note)
because application of those requirements would be inconsistent with the
Clean Air Act; and

does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to address, 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 rule does not have tribal implications as specified by
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the SIP
is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the state, and EPA
notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on tribal
governments or preempt tribal law.

B.   Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General

The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the
rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to
each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United
States.  EPA will submit a report containing this action and other
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register.  A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register.
 This action is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

C.  Petitions for Judicial Review

Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review of
this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the
appropriate circuit by [insert date 60 days from date of publication of
this document in the Federal Register].  Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this rule for the purposes of judicial review nor does
it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may be
filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or action.

This action to approve the Delaware Transportation Conformity SIP may
not be challenged later in proceedings to enforce its requirements.
(See section 307(b)(2).

The Proposal

    This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR), part 71 by amending Class E airspace designated as an
extension to a Class C surface area at Laughlin AFB, Del Rio, TX. An
additional segment to the north is needed to contain approach category
E military aircraft conducting circling approaches to the airport, to
retain the safety and management of IFR aircraft in Class E airspace
to/from the en route environment. Geographic coordinates would also be
updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6003 of FAA Order
7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012 and effective September 15, 2012, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace
designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in
the 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.
It, therefore, (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 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.
    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 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 controlled airspace at Laughlin AFB, Del Rio, TX.

Environmental Review

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

C. Regulatory History The first Pine oil registration was first issued to William Cooper and Nephews, Inc in December, 1947. The product contained 70% Pine oil 20% Soap and 10% Water and was labeled as a hard surface disinfectant and deodorizer. Commercial Standard CS69 38, amended in 1955, separated pine oils products into three categories depending upon concentration and ingredients. As part of the Label Improvement Program, initiated in 1980, manufacturers of pine oil products were required to revise their labels to comply with updated standards.

The CSPA Pine Oil Joint Venture was formed on October 7, 1986. The Joint Venture members at that time were: American Cyanamid Arizona Chemical Company Dow Consumer Products, Inc. Hercules, Inc. Johnson Chemical Company, Inc. Lehn & Fink Products, Inc. Procter & Gamble Company SCM Glidco Organics Sintesis Quimica, S. A. T & R Chemicals Union Camp Corporation Page 5 of 5 At this time there are currently 98 active Pine oil registrations. Of these 98 registrations, 19 of them are manufacturing use/ technical grade active ingredient ( MUP/ TGAI) products. Of the 79 remaining end use product ( EUP) registrations, all but three of them are Disinfectant or Disinfectant/ Sanitizer products. The three are:

Registrant EPA Reg. No. Product Type Brondow, Inc. 2733 1 Disinfectant/ Repellant ( Roaches and Ants)

Speer Products 11715 290 Insecticide ( Fly spray for horses)

TFA Products, Inc. 70072 1 Insecticide ( Fire Ant Mounds)

The remaining EUPs are for disinfection of hard, nonporous inanimate surfaces. The typical pesticidal claim relating to Pine Oil content in these products is limited against bacteria, primarily gram negative household germs such as those causing Salmonellosis. In addition, several labels have directions for toilet bowl disinfection.

There are no food/ feed uses for Pine Oil. Any food contact surfaces require cleaning with a detergent followed by a potable water rinse. This applies even when the products are labeled for use in Federally inspected meat and poultry plants, farm premises or on kitchen countertops.

Of the 79 remaining end use product ( EUP) registrations reviewed, a overwhelming majority of them were liquid concentrates. There were a few ready to use products, one product is registered as an emulsifiable concentrate and one product is registered as a concentrate that may be used at full strength.

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Model Falcon 2000 and Falcon
2000EX Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation
authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe
condition as:

    During the overhaul of a Main Landing Gear (MLG) of a Falcon
2000, the sleeve on the hydraulic flow restrictor in the shock
absorber was found displaced, because of the rupture of its three
retaining screws. * * *
    Failure of the retaining screws has been determined to be the
final phase of a slow unscrewing process under normal operational
conditions. The unsafe condition only exists once the three screws
have failed.
* * * * *

The unsafe condition is failure of three retaining screws of the MLG
shock absorber which could result in collapse of the landing gear
during ground maneuvers or landing. The proposed AD would require
actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in
the MCAI.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 26,
2009.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2009-0050, dated March 5, 2009 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    During the overhaul of a Main Landing Gear (MLG) of a Falcon
2000, the sleeve on the hydraulic flow restrictor in the shock
absorber was found displaced, because of the rupture of its three
retaining screws. In this situation, the energy dissipation function
of the shock absorber is lost and high loads may be transmitted to
the aircraft structure during landing. Structural integrity may thus
not be guaranteed over the entire certified landing conditions
domain particularly in combination of high landing weight and high
vertical speed.
    Failure of the retaining screws has been determined to be the
final phase of a slow unscrewing process under normal operational
conditions. The unsafe condition only exists once the three screws
have failed.
    For the reasons described above, Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2008-0178 had been released to require a repetitive borescope
inspection of the flow restriction system [for damage; such as
condition of the sleeve of the dumping device, and broken or loose
screws] and, if necessary, repair of the shock absorber per Dassault
Aviation Service Bulletins (SB) F2000-367 and F2000EX-185
(corresponding to modification M3120) developed with the landing
gear manufacturer's instructions.* * *
    After qualification testing, modification M3120 has been
approved by EASA as a definitive solution.
    As a consequence, the present AD retains the requirements of AD
2008-0178 which is superseded and introduces M3120 as a terminating
action to the repetitive inspections requirement, and further
mandates its embodiment no later than the next MLG shock absorber
overhaul.

The unsafe condition is failure of three retaining screws of the MLG
shock

absorber which could result in collapse of the landing gear during
ground maneuvers or landing. The repair can include additional
inspections, modifying the shock absorbers, and contacting the
manufacturer for repair instructions and doing the repair before
further flight. You may obtain further information by examining the
MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Dassault has issued Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-167,
Revision 1, dated December 1, 2008; Service Bulletin F2000EX-185,
Revision 2, dated February 4, 2009; Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000-
366, Revision 2, dated December 1, 2008; and Service Bulletin F2000-
367, Revision 4, dated February 4, 2009. The actions described in this
service information are intended to correct the unsafe condition
identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in
general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it
necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the
AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these
changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information
provided in the MCAI and related service information.
    We might also have proposed different actions in this AD from those
in the MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. Any such differences are
highlighted in a note within the proposed AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 236 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 25 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $80 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $0 per product. Where the
service information lists required parts costs that are covered under
warranty, we have assumed that there will be no charge for these costs.
As we do not control warranty coverage for affected parties, some
parties may incur costs higher than estimated here. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to
be $472,000, or $2,000 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

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

    1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

Dassault Aviation: Docket No. FAA-2009-0791; Directorate Identifier
2008-NM-213-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) We must receive comments by October 26, 2009.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to all Dassault Model Falcon 2000 and Falcon
2000EX airplanes, certificated in any category.

Subject

    (d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 32: Landing
gear.

Reason

    (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
states:

    During the overhaul of a Main Landing Gear (MLG) of a Falcon
2000, the sleeve on the hydraulic flow restrictor in the shock
absorber was found displaced, because of the rupture of its three
retaining screws. In this situation, the energy dissipation function
of the shock absorber is lost and high loads may be transmitted to
the aircraft structure during landing. Structural integrity may thus
not be guaranteed over the entire certified landing conditions
domain particularly in combination of high landing weight and high
vertical speed.
    Failure of the retaining screws has been determined to be the
final phase of a slow unscrewing process under normal operational
conditions. The unsafe condition only exists once the three screws
have failed.
    For the reasons described above, Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2008-0178 had been released to require a repetitive borescope
inspection of the flow restriction system [for damage; such as
condition of the sleeve of the dumping device, and broken or loose
screws] and, if necessary, repair of the shock absorber per Dassault
Aviation Service Bulletins (SB) F2000-367 and F2000EX-185
(corresponding to modification M3120) developed with the landing
gear manufacturer's instructions.* * *

    After qualification testing, modification M3120 has been
approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), as a
definitive solution.
    As a consequence, the present AD retains the requirements of AD
2008-0178 which is superseded and introduces M3120 as a terminating
action to the repetitive inspections requirement, and further
mandates its embodiment no later than the next MLG shock absorber
overhaul.

The unsafe condition is failure of three retaining screws of the MLG
shock absorber which could result in collapse of the landing gear
during ground maneuvers or landing. The repair can include
additional inspections, modifying the shock absorbers, and
contacting the manufacturer for repair instructions and doing the
repair before further flight.

Actions and Compliance

    (f) Unless already done, do the following actions.
    (1) For airplanes on which each new or previously overhauled MLG
shock absorber has accumulated 4,200 or more total landings since
new or overhauled as of the effective date of this AD: Within 8
months after the effective date of this AD, inspect the shock
absorber for damage, in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000-366,
Revision 2; or F2000EX-167, Revision 1; both dated December 1, 2008,
as applicable. If any damage is found, before further flight, repair
the shock absorber in accordance with the Accomplishment
Instructions of Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000-366,
Revision 2; or F2000EX-167, Revision 1; both dated December 1, 2008,
as applicable.
    (2) For airplanes on which each new or previously overhauled MLG
shock absorber has accumulated 1,900 or more total landings and less
than 4,200 total landings since new or overhauled as of the

FAA AD Differences

    Note 1: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information
as follows:
    (1) Although the MCAI requires repairing any damage within the
applicable time or landing limits specified in Dassault Mandatory
Service Bulletin F2000-366, Revision 2, or F2000EX-167, Revision 1,
both dated December 1, 2008; this AD requires that the repair be
done before further flight.
    (2) Paragraph (1) of the MCAI requires updating the operator's
maintenance program; however, that action is not required by this
AD. The maintenance program does not require FAA approval.

Other FAA AD Provisions

    (g) The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA,
has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using
the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send information to ATTN: Tom
Rodriguez, Aerospace Engineer, International Branch, ANM-116,
Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton,
Washington 98057-3356; telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax<PHONE_NUMBER>.
Before using any approved AMOC on any airplane to which the AMOC
applies, notify your principal maintenance inspector (PMI) or
principal avionics inspector (PAI), as appropriate, or lacking a
principal inspector, your local Flight Standards District Office.
    (2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement in this AD to obtain
corrective actions from a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective actions are considered
FAA-approved if they are approved by the State of Design Authority
(or their delegated agent). You are required to assure the product
is airworthy before it is returned to service.
    (3) Reporting Requirements: For any reporting requirement in
this AD, under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the information
collection requirements and has assigned OMB Control Number 2120-
0056.
