33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2019-0959]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone; Illinois River, Mile Markers 91.5 and 28.3
(Frederick Light LLNR 7585 and Hurricane Island Upper Day Beacon LLNR
7980)

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for
all navigable waters within one-tenth of a mile up and down river of
Mile Marker (MM) 91.5 and Mile Marker (MM) 28.3 on the Illinois River.
The safety zone is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment from potential hazards created by diving operations for
salvage work. Entry of vessels or persons into this zone is prohibited
unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port Sector Upper
Mississippi River or a designated representative.

DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice from December 20,
2019 through December 30, 2019. For the purposes of enforcement, actual
notice will be used from December 16, 2019 through December 20, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port Sector Upper Mississippi River
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
MM Mile Marker
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice
and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4(a) of
the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because of the very short notification of
when the diving work on the Illinois River is due to take place. It is
impracticable to publish an NPRM because we must establish this safety
zone by December 16, 2019.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of
this rule would be contrary to public interest because immediate action
is necessary to respond to the potential safety hazards associated with
the diving work to take place in the Illinois River.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). The Captain of the Port Sector Upper
Mississippi River (COTP) has determined that potential hazards
associated with dive operations starting December 16, 2019, will be a
safety concern for anyone seeking to transit at MM 91.5 and MM 28.3 on
the Illinois River. This rule is needed to protect personnel, vessels,
and the marine environment in the navigable waters within the safety
zone while the diving takes place.

IV. Discussion of the Rule

    This rule establishes a safety zone which will be enforced for two
days within the effective period from 7 a.m. through 1 p.m. or until
dive operations are completed, whichever occurs sooner. The duration of
the effective period is from December 16, 2019 to December 30, 2019 to
allow for any potentially unsafe weather condtions that could delay the
diving and salvage operations. The safety zone will cover all navigable
waters of the Illinois River within one tenth of a mile up and down
river of MM 91.5 and MM 28.3 extending the entire width of the river.
This is necessary for divers and salvage equipment being used to
complete work required to cut off old pilings below the water to
recover the destroyed Coast Guard Aids to Navigation. The duration of
the zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment in these navigable waters while the work is taking place.
No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone without
obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative. The
COTP or designated representative will notify the public of the actual
enforcement dates by Broadcast Notice to Mariners, Locan Notice to
Mariners and or Marine Safety Information Bulletin, as approtiate.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on a number of these statutes and Executive orders, and we
discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This rule has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, this rule has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the safety zone. This safety zone impacts two
small sections totaling less than a one mile stretch of the Illinois
River for up to six hours over two days. Additionally, this rule allows
vessels to seek permission to enter the zone.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires Federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000.

The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this rule. If the rule would affect your
small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have
questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please
call or email the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This rule will not call for a new collection of information under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has 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. We have analyzed this rule under that order and have
determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
    Also, this rule does not have tribal implications under Executive
Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it does not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. If
you believe this rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes,
please call or email the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section above.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Directive 023-01, Rev. 1, associated implementing instructions, and
Environmental Planning COMDTINST 5090.1 (series), which guide the Coast
Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined that this action is one of
a category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human environment. This rule involves a
safety zone lasting only 6 hours on two days that will prohibit entry
within the dive operations locations at MM 91.5 and MM 28.3 on the
Illinois River. It is categorically excluded from further review under
paragraph L60(a) in Table 3-1 of U.S. Coast Guard Environmental
Planning Implementing Procedures. A Record of Environmental
Consideration supporting this determination is available in the docket.
For instructions on locating the docket, see the ADDRESSES section of
this preamble.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to call or email the person listed in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so
that your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

[EPA-R04-RCRA-2018-0528; FRL- 9985-93-Region 4]

Mississippi: Proposed Authorization of State Hazardous Waste
Management Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Mississippi has applied to the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) for final authorization of changes to its hazardous waste program
under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended.
EPA has reviewed Mississippi's application and is proposing to
determine that these changes satisfy all requirements needed to qualify
for final authorization. Therefore, we are proposing to authorize the
State's changes. EPA seeks public comment prior to taking final action.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 28, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R04-
RCRA-2018-0528, at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot
be edited or removed from www.regulations.gov. EPA may publish any
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI)
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. EPA will
generally not consider comments or comment contents located outside of
the primary submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or other file sharing
system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA public comment
policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, and general
guidance on making effective comments, please visit http://www2.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.

Management Branch, RCR Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303-
8960; telephone number:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax number:<PHONE_NUMBER>;
email address: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Why are revisions to state programs necessary?

    States that have received final authorization from EPA under RCRA
section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), must maintain a hazardous waste
program that is equivalent to, consistent with, and no less stringent
than the federal program. As the federal program changes, states must
change their programs and ask EPA to authorize the changes. Changes to
state programs may be necessary when federal or state statutory or
regulatory authority is modified or when certain other changes occur.
Most commonly, states must change their programs because of changes to
EPA's regulations in 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 124,
260 through 268, 270, 273, and 279.
    New federal requirements and prohibitions imposed by federal
regulations that EPA promulgates pursuant to the Hazardous and Solid
Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA) take effect in authorized states at the
same time that they take effect in unauthorized states. Thus, EPA will
implement those requirements and prohibitions in the states, including
the issuance of new permits implementing those requirements, until the
states are granted authorization to do so.

B. What decisions is EPA proposing to make in this rule?

    Mississippi submitted program revision applications, dated
September 10, 2014 and June 1, 2018, seeking authorization of changes
to its hazardous waste program that correspond to certain federal rules
promulgated between July 1, 2004 and June 30, 2014 (including RCRA
Clusters \1\ XV through XXIII). EPA concludes that Mississippi's
applications to revise its authorized program meet all of the statutory
and regulatory requirements established by RCRA, as set forth in RCRA
section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), and 40 CFR part 271. Therefore, EPA
proposes to grant Mississippi final authorization to operate its
hazardous waste program

with the changes described in its authorization applications, and as
outlined below in Section F of this document.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A ``cluster'' is a grouping of hazardous waste rules that
EPA promulgates from July 1st of one year to June 30th of the
following year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Mississippi has responsibility for permitting treatment, storage,
and disposal facilities within its borders (except in Indian country)
and for carrying out the aspects of the RCRA program described in its
revised program applications, subject to the limitations of HSWA, as
discussed above.

C. What is the effect of this proposed authorization decision?

    If Mississippi is authorized for the changes described in
Mississippi's authorization applications, these changes will become
part of the authorized State hazardous waste program, and therefore
will be federally enforceable. Mississippi will continue to have
primary enforcement authority and responsibility for its State
hazardous waste program. EPA would retain its authorities under RCRA
sections 3007, 3008, 3013, and 7003, including its authority to:
     Conduct inspections, and require monitoring, tests,
analyses or reports;
     Enforce RCRA requirements, including authorized State
program requirements, and suspend or revoke permits; and
     Take enforcement actions regardless of whether the State
has taken its own actions.
    This action will not impose additional requirements on the
regulated community because the regulations for which EPA is proposing
to authorize Mississippi are already effective, and are not changed by
today's proposed action.

D. What happens if EPA receives comments that oppose this action?

    EPA will evaluate any comments received on this proposed action and
will make a final decision on approval or disapproval of Mississippi's
proposed authorization. Our decision will be published in the Federal
Register. You may not have another opportunity to comment. If you want
to comment on this authorization, you must do so at this time.

E. What has Mississippi previously been authorized for?

    Mississippi initially received final authorization on June 13,
1984, effective June 27, 1984 (49 FR 24377), to implement the RCRA
hazardous waste management program. EPA granted authorization for
changes to Mississippi's program on August 17, 1988, effective October
17, 1988 (53 FR 31000); August 10, 1990, effective October 9, 1990 (55
FR 32624); March 29, 1991, effective May 28, 1991 (56 FR 13079); June
26, 1991, effective August 27, 1991 (56 FR 29589); May 11, 1992,
effective July 10, 1992 (57 FR 20056); April 8, 1993, effective June 7,
1993 (58 FR 18162); October 20, 1993, effective December 20, 1993 (58
FR 54044); March 18, 1994, effective May 17, 1994 (59 FR 12857); June
1, 1995, effective July 31, 1995 (60 FR 28539); August 30, 1995,
effective October 30, 1995 (60 FR 5718); February 23, 2005, effective
April 25, 2005 (70 FR 8731); and August 4, 2008, effective October 3,
2008 (73 FR 45170).

F. What changes are we proposing with today's action?

    Mississippi submitted program revision applications, dated
September 10, 2014 and June 1, 2018, seeking authorization of changes
to its hazardous waste management program in accordance with 40 CFR
271.21. The September 10, 2014 application included changes associated
with Checklists \2\ 206.1, 207.1, 208-215, 217-218, 220, 222-223, and
225-228. All of these Checklists were resubmitted with Mississippi's
June 1, 2018 application in response to prior EPA comments. The June 1,
2018 application also included changes associated with Checklists 229-
232, as well as the non-checklist technical correction published at 72
FR 35666 (June 29, 2007). EPA proposes to determine, subject to receipt
of written comments that oppose this action, that Mississippi's
hazardous waste program revisions are equivalent to, consistent with,
and no less stringent than the federal program, and therefore satisfy
all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final authorization.
Therefore, EPA is proposing to authorize Mississippi for the following

\3\ The Mississippi regulatory provisions are from the Mississippi Hazardous Waste Regulations, Title 11, Part
  3, Chapter 1, effective November 17, 2017.
\4\ The National Environmental Performance Track Program referenced in the Burden Reduction Initiative Rule has
  been discontinued.

G. Where are the revised State rules different from the federal rules?

    When revised state rules differ from the federal rules in the RCRA
state authorization process, EPA determines whether the state rules are
equivalent to, more stringent than, or broader in scope than the
federal program. Pursuant to Section 3009 of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6929,
state programs may contain requirements that are more stringent than
the federal regulations. Such more stringent requirements can be
federally authorized and, once authorized, become federally
enforceable. Although the statute does not prevent states from adopting
regulations that are broader in scope than the federal program, such
regulations cannot be authorized and are not federally enforceable. In
its review of the Mississippi regulations submitted as part of the
program revision applications that are the subject of this proposed
rule, EPA did not find any State regulations to be more stringent or
broader in scope than the federal program.
    EPA cannot delegate certain federal requirements associated with
the manifest registry system in the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest
Rule (Checklist 207) or the operation of the electronic manifest system
in the Hazardous Waste Electronic Manifest Rule (Checklist 231).
Mississippi has adopted these requirements and appropriately preserved
EPA's authority to implement them (see 11 Miss. Admin. Code Pt. 3, Ch.
1, Rules 1.1, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7, and 1.11).
    EPA also cannot delegate the federal requirements associated with
international shipments (i.e., import and export provisions) associated
with the Cathode Ray Tubes Rule (Checklists 215 and 232) and the OECD
Requirements for Export Shipments of Spent Lead-Acid Batteries
(Checklist 222). Mississippi has adopted these requirements and
appropriately preserved EPA's authority to implement them (see 11 Miss.
Admin. Code Pt. 3, Ch. 1, Rules 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3).

H. Who handles permits after the final authorization takes effect?

    Mississippi will issue permits for all the provisions for which it
is authorized and will administer the permits it issues. EPA will
continue to administer any RCRA hazardous waste permits or portions of
permits which EPA issued prior to the effective date of authorization
until they expire or are terminated. EPA will not issue any new permits
or new portions of permits for the provisions listed in the Table above
after the effective date of the final authorization. EPA will continue
to implement and issue permits for HSWA requirements for which
Mississippi is not yet authorized.

I. How does today's proposed action affect Indian country (18 U.S.C.
1151) in Mississippi?

    Mississippi is not authorized to carry out its hazardous waste
program in Indian country within the State, which includes the
Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians. Therefore, this proposed action
has no effect on Indian Country. EPA will continue to implement and
administer the RCRA program on these lands.

J. What is codification and will EPA codify Mississippi's hazardous
waste program as proposed in this rule?

    Codification is the process of placing the state's statutes and
regulations that comprise the state's authorized hazardous waste
program into the Code of Federal Regulations. EPA does this by
referencing the authorized state rules in 40 CFR part 272. EPA is not
proposing to codify the authorization of Mississippi's changes at this
time. However, EPA reserves the amendment of 40 CFR part 272, subpart
Z, for the authorization of Mississippi's program changes at a later
date.

K. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted this action
from the requirements of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4,
1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011). This action proposes to
authorize State requirements for the purpose of RCRA section 3006 and
imposes no additional requirements beyond those imposed by State law.
Therefore, this action is not subject to review by OMB. This action is
not an Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 3, 2017) regulatory
action because actions such as today's proposed authorization of
Mississippi's revised hazardous waste program under RCRA are exempted
under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, I certify that this action
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.). Because this action proposes to authorize pre-

existing requirements under State law and does not impose any
additional enforceable duty beyond that required by State law, it does
not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or uniquely affect
small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of
1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538). For the same reason, this action also does
not significantly or uniquely affect the communities of tribal
governments, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249,
November 9, 2000). This action will not have substantial direct effects
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, as specified in Executive Order 13132
(64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999), because it merely proposes to authorize
State requirements as part of the State RCRA hazardous waste program
without altering the relationship or the distribution of power and
responsibilities established by RCRA. This action also is not subject
to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997), because it is
not economically significant and it does not make decisions based on
environmental health or safety risks. This action is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, ``Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001), because it is not a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866.
    Under RCRA section 3006(b), EPA grants a state's application for
authorization as long as the state meets the criteria required by RCRA.
It would thus be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it
reviews a state authorization application, to require the use of any
particular voluntary consensus standard in place of another standard
that otherwise satisfies the requirements of RCRA. Thus, the
requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not apply. As required
by section 3 of Executive Order 12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 1996),
in proposing this rule, EPA has taken the necessary steps to eliminate
drafting errors and ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, and
provide a clear legal standard for affected conduct. EPA has complied
with Executive Order 12630 (53 FR 8859, March 15, 1988) by examining
the takings implications of this action in accordance with the
``Attorney General's Supplemental Guidelines for the Evaluation of Risk
and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings'' issued under the executive
order. This action does not impose an information collection burden
under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.). ``Burden'' is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes federal
executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision directs
federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by
law, to make environmental justice part of their mission by identifying
and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and adverse
human health or environmental effects of their programs, policies, and
activities on minority populations and low-income populations in the
United States. Because this action proposes authorization of pre-
existing State rules which are at least equivalent to, and no less
stringent than existing federal requirements, and imposes no additional
requirements beyond those imposed by State law, and there are no
anticipated significant adverse human health or environmental effects,
this proposed rule is not subject to Executive Order 12898.

III. What is the agency's authority for taking this action?

    Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide
product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations
be canceled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register.
    Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA requires that before acting on a
request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide a 30-day public
comment period on the request for voluntary cancellation or use
termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C) requires that EPA
provide a 180-day comment period on a request for voluntary
cancellation or termination of any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
    1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period or,
    2. The EPA Administrator determines that continued use of the
pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
    The registrants in Table 2 of Unit II. have requested that EPA
waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a 30-
day comment period on the proposed requests.

IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request

    Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation
should submit such withdrawal in writing to the person listed under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the products have been subject to a
previous cancellation action, the effective date of cancellation and
all other provisions of any earlier cancellation action are
controlling.

V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks

    Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are in the United States and that were packaged, labeled, and
released for shipment prior to the effective date of the cancellation
action.

    For Products<PHONE_NUMBER>3 and<PHONE_NUMBER>5:
    Because the Agency has identified significant potential risk
concerns associated with these pesticide products, upon cancellation
EPA intends to issue a cancellation order prohibiting sale or
distribution of existing stocks by the registrant, except for export
consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. Persons other
than the registrant will be allowed to sell or distribute existing
stocks of products, until such stocks are exhausted. Users will be
allowed to use existing stocks regardless of date of purchase until
such stocks are exhausted, provided that such use is consistent with
the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied,
the canceled product.
    For all other products identified in Table 1 of Unit II:
    Because the Agency has identified no significant potential risk
concerns associated with these pesticide products, upon cancellation of
the products identified in Table 1 of Unit II., EPA anticipates
allowing registrants to sell and distribute existing stocks of these
products for 1 year after publication of the Cancellation Order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from
selling or distributing the pesticides identified in Table 1 of Unit
II., except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper
disposal. Persons other than registrants will generally be allowed to
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks until such stocks are
exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent
with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that
accompanied, the canceled products.

[Docket No. FAA-2021-0575; Project Identifier MCAI-2020-00545-R;
Amendment 39-21749-; AD 2021-20-11]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Bell Textron Canada Limited (Type
Certificate Previously Held by Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Limited)
Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Bell Textron Canada Limited (type certificate previously held
by Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Limited) Model 429 helicopters. This
AD was prompted by reports of incorrectly staked spherical bearings in
the directional control bellcrank assembly. This AD requires a one-time
inspection of the lower surface of the spherical bearing in the
directional control bellcrank assembly to determine if it is properly
staked and, depending on the findings, applicable corrective actions.
For certain helicopters, this AD also requires repetitive inspections
and, depending on the findings, applicable corrective actions. This AD
also provides a terminating action for the repetitive inspections. The
FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: This AD is effective November 22, 2021.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain document listed in this AD as of November 22,
2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Bell Textron
Canada Limited (type certificate previously held by Bell Helicopter
Textron Canada Limited) Model 429 helicopters. The NPRM published in
the Federal Register on July 23, 2021 (86 FR 38946). In the NPRM, the
FAA proposed to require a one-time inspection of the lower surface of
the spherical bearing in the directional control bellcrank assembly to
determine if it is properly staked and, depending on the findings,
applicable corrective actions. In the NPRM, the FAA also proposed to
require, for certain helicopters, repetitive inspections and, depending
on the findings, applicable corrective actions. The NPRM was prompted
by Transport Canada AD CF-2020-11, dated April 16, 2020 (Transport
Canada AD CF-2020-11), issued by Transport Canada, which is the
aviation authority for Canada, to correct an unsafe condition for Bell
Textron Canada Limited (Bell) Model 429 helicopters, serial numbers
57001 through 57210, 57212 through 57344, 57346 through 57371, 57374
through 57377, and 57380. Transport Canada advises that there are
reports of incorrectly staked spherical bearings in the directional
control bellcrank assembly. This condition, if not addressed, could
result in wear or elongation of the bore in the bellcrank, which could
result in reduced helicopter directional control.
    Accordingly, Transport Canada AD CF-2020-11 requires a one-time
inspection to determine if a spherical bearing is properly staked in
the directional control bellcrank assembly, and, depending on the
findings, replacement of the spherical bearing with a new spherical
bearing, repair of an affected bellcrank assembly and repetitive
inspections of that repaired bellcrank assembly, or replacement of the
affected bellcrank assembly with a serviceable part. Transport Canada
AD CF-2020-11 also provides terminating actions for the requirements of
that AD.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received a comment from one commenter, Air Methods. The
following presents the comment received on the NPRM and the FAA's
response.

Request To Include Additional Revision Level in Credit Paragraph

    Air Methods requested that Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50,
Revision B, dated December 19, 2019 (Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-
19-50, Revision B) be included in the ``Credit for Previous Actions''
paragraph of the proposed AD. The commenter stated that Revision B of
the service bulletin was released on December 19, 2019.
    The FAA infers that the commenter mentioned the date of Revision B
of the service bulletin to show that it was released prior to the
effective date of the final rule. The FAA acknowledges the commenter's
request and agrees to provide clarification. The requirements of
paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD refer to Bell Alert Service Bulletin
429-19-50, Revision B, as the appropriate source of information for
doing the actions required by those paragraphs. Paragraph (f),
``Compliance,'' of this AD states ``comply with this AD within the
compliance times specified, unless already done.'' The words ``unless
already done'' in paragraph (f) of this AD, in conjunction with the
requirements of paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD, which specify that
operators use Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, Revision B, as the
appropriate source of information, already account for the use of Bell
Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, Revision B, prior to the effective
date of this AD. Therefore, if operators have accomplished the actions
required for compliance with this AD before the effective date of this
AD, no further action is necessary and it is not necessary to include
Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, Revision B, in paragraph (j) of
this AD (the ``Credit for Previous Actions'' paragraph). The FAA has
not revised this AD in this regard.

Conclusion

    These helicopters have been approved by the aviation authority of
Canada and are approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to
the FAA's bilateral agreement with Canada, Transport Canada, its
technical representative, has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition
described in its AD. The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the
comment received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this
AD as proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these helicopters. Except for minor editorial
changes, this AD is adopted as proposed in the NPRM. None of the
changes will increase the economic burden on any operator.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, Revision B.
This service information specifies procedures for an initial inspection
of the lower surface of the spherical bearing in the directional
control bellcrank assembly to determine if it is properly staked,
additional inspections, and corrective actions. The corrective actions
include installation of a new spherical bearing, repair (including re-
identification of the bellcrank assembly part number), and replacement
of the bellcrank assembly. The additional inspections include an
inspection of the upper surface of the spherical bearing in the
directional control bellcrank assembly to determine if it is properly
staked, an inspection of the bore in the bellcrank assembly for
excessive wear (including mechanical or corrosion damage that exceed
0.001 inch (0.03 millimeter) maximum depth for 4 of the circumference,
and any cracking); and, for any helicopter with a bellcrank assembly
that is repaired, repetitive inspections of the lower surface of the
spherical bearing to determine if it has moved.
    This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA also reviewed Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, dated
November 27, 2019; and Revision A, dated December 2, 2019. Bell Alert
Service Bulletin 429-19-50, dated November 27, 2019, specifies
procedures for an initial inspection of the spherical bearing in the
directional control bellcrank assembly to determine

if it is properly staked and replacement of the spherical bearing with
a new spherical bearing if it is determined that the spherical bearing
was not properly staked.
    Bell Alert Service Bulletin 429-19-50, Revision A, dated December
2, 2019, specifies procedures for an initial inspection of the lower
surface of the spherical bearing in the directional control bellcrank
assembly to determine if it is properly staked, additional inspections,
and corrective actions. The corrective actions include installation of
a new spherical bearing. The additional inspections include an
inspection of the upper surface of the spherical bearing in the
directional control bellcrank assembly to determine if it is properly
staked, and an inspection of the bore in the bellcrank assembly for
excessive wear.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 120 helicopters of U.S.
Registry. Labor rates are estimated at $85 per work-hour. Based on
these numbers, the FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this AD.

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 helicopters identified in this rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (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
