DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket ID FEMA-2012-0003; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8233]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates
listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not
occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the
Federal Register on a subsequent date.

DATES: Effective Dates: The effective date of each community's
scheduled suspension is the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third
column of the following tables.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact David Stearrett, Federal Insurance and
Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C
Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
Federal flood insurance that is not otherwise generally available from
private insurers. In return, communities agree to adopt and administer
local floodplain management measures aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding. Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits the sale
of NFIP flood insurance unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance with program regulations, 44 CFR
part 59. Accordingly, the communities will be suspended on the
effective date in the third column. As of that date, flood insurance
will no longer be available in the community. We recognize that some of
these communities may adopt and submit the required documentation of
legally enforceable floodplain management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue to be eligible for the sale of
NFIP flood insurance. A notice withdrawing the suspension of such
communities will be published in the Federal Register.
    In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that
identifies the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in these communities.
The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated in the
fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial assistance
(except assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act not in connection with a flood) may be
provided for construction or acquisition of buildings in identified
SFHAs for communities not participating in the NFIP and identified for
more than a year on FEMA's initial FIRM for the community as having
flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act
of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This prohibition against
certain types of Federal assistance becomes effective for the
communities listed on the date shown in the last column. The
Administrator finds that notice and public comment procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b), are impracticable and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been adequately notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
    National Environmental Policy Act. This rule is categorically
excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR Part 10, Environmental
Considerations. No environmental impact assessment has been prepared.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. The Administrator has determined that
this rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
Section 1315, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage unless
an appropriate public body adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the communities
unless remedial action takes place.
    Regulatory Classification. This final rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order
12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR
51735.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This rule involves no policies
that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This rule meets the
applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
    Paperwork Reduction Act. This rule does not involve any collection
of information for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2008-13-
12 R1, which applies to certain The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200,
-200C, -300, -400, and -500 series airplanes. AD 2008-13-12 R1
currently requires various repetitive inspections for cracking of the
upper frame to side frame splice of the fuselage, and other specified
and corrective actions if necessary; and also provides for an optional
preventive modification, which terminates the repetitive inspections.
Since we issued AD 2008-13-12 R1, we have received reports of
additional fatigue cracking of the upper frame to side frame splice of
the fuselage, and two reports of severed frames. This proposed AD would
add, for certain airplanes, an inspection to determine if the existing
frame repair meets all specified requirements; for certain other
airplanes, a new modification of the upper frame to side frame splice,
which would terminate the repetitive inspections; and reduce certain
inspection thresholds and repetitive intervals. We are proposing this
AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the upper frame to side
frame splice of the fuselage, which could result in reduced structural
integrity of the frame and adjacent lap joint, causing increased
loading in the fuselage skin, which will accelerate skin crack growth
and result in decompression of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 23,
2015.

Discussion

    On June 12, 2008, we issued AD 2008-13-12, Amendment 39-15575 (73
FR 38905, July 8, 2008), which was revised by AD 2008-13-12 R1,
Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR 67383, November 14, 2008), for certain The
Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, -200C, -300, -400, and -500 series
airplanes. AD 2008-13-12 R1 requires various repetitive inspections for
cracking of the upper frame to side frame splice of the fuselage, and
other specified and corrective actions if necessary. AD 2008-13-12 R1
also provides for an optional preventive modification, which terminates
the repetitive inspections. AD 2008-13-12 R1 resulted from a report
that the upper frame of the fuselage was severed between stringers S-
13L and S-14L at station 747, and the adjacent frame at station 767 had
a 1.3-inch-long crack at the same stringer location. We issued AD 2008-
13-12 R1 to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the upper frame to
side frame splice of the fuselage, which could result in reduced
structural integrity of the frame and adjacent lap joint. This reduced
structural integrity can increase loading in the fuselage skin, which
will accelerate skin crack growth and result in decompression of the
airplane.

Widespread Fatigue Damage (WFD)

    Structural fatigue damage is progressive. It begins as minute
cracks, and those cracks grow under the action of repeated stresses.
This can happen because of normal operational conditions and design
attributes, or because of isolated situations or incidents such as
material defects, poor fabrication quality, or corrosion pits, dings,
or scratches. Fatigue damage can occur locally, in small areas or
structural design details, or globally. Global fatigue damage is
general degradation of large areas of structure with similar structural
details and stress levels. Multiple-site damage is global damage that
occurs in a large structural element such as a single rivet line of a
lap splice joining two large skin panels. Global damage can also occur
in multiple elements such as adjacent frames or stringers. Multiple-
site-damage and multiple-element-damage cracks are typically too small
initially to be reliably detected with normal inspection methods.
Without intervention, these cracks will grow, and eventually compromise
the structural integrity of the airplane, in a condition known as WFD.
As an airplane ages, WFD will likely occur, and will certainly occur if
the airplane is operated long enough without any intervention.
    The FAA's WFD final rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) became
effective on January 14, 2011. The WFD rule requires certain actions to
prevent structural failure due to WFD throughout the operational life
of certain existing transport category airplanes and all of these
airplanes that will be certificated in the future. For existing and
future airplanes subject to the WFD rule, the rule requires that design
approval holder (DAHs) establish a limit of validity (LOV) of the
engineering data that support the structural maintenance program.
Operators affected by the WFD rule may not fly an airplane beyond its
LOV, unless an extended LOV is approved.
    The WFD rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) does not require
identifying and developing maintenance actions if the DAHs can show
that such actions are not necessary to prevent WFD before the airplane
reaches the LOV. Many LOVs, however, do depend on accomplishment of
future maintenance actions. As stated in the WFD rule, any maintenance
actions necessary to reach the LOV will be mandated by airworthiness
directives through separate rulemaking actions.
    In the context of WFD, this action is necessary to enable DAHs to
propose LOVs that allow operators the longest operational lives for
their airplanes, and still ensure that WFD will not occur. This
approach allows for an implementation strategy that provides
flexibility to DAHs in determining the timing of service information
development (with FAA approval), while providing operators with
certainty regarding the LOV applicable to their airplanes.

Actions Since AD 2008-13-12 R1, Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR 67383,
November 14, 2008) Was Issued

    Since AD 2008-13-12 R1, Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR 67383, November
14, 2008) was issued, we have received reports of additional fatigue
cracking of the upper frame to side frame splice of the fuselage, and
two reports of severed frames.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1261, Revision 1,
dated January 30, 2015. The service information describes procedures
for various repetitive inspections for cracking of the upper frame to
side frame splice of the fuselage, an inspection to determine if the
existing frame repair meets all specified requirements, and corrective
actions if necessary. The service information also describes procedures
for a new preventive modification, which would eliminate the need for
the repetitive inspections. 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 of this NPRM.

FAA's Determination

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

Proposed AD Requirements

    Although this proposed AD does not explicitly restate the
requirements of AD 2008-13-12, Amendment 39-15575 (73 FR 38905, July 8,
2008), revised by AD 2008-13-12 R1, Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR 67383,
November 14, 2008), this proposed AD would retain all of the
requirements of those ADs. Those requirements are referenced in the
service information identified previously, which, in turn, is
referenced in paragraph (g) of this proposed AD. This proposed AD would
require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information
described previously. Refer to this service information for information
on the procedures and compliance times.

Explanation of Proposed Compliance Time

    The compliance time for the modification specified in this proposed
AD for addressing WFD was established to ensure that discrepant
structure is modified before WFD develops in airplanes. Standard
inspection techniques cannot be relied on to detect WFD before it
becomes a hazard to flight. We will not grant any extensions of the
compliance time to complete any AD-mandated service bulletin related to

WFD without extensive new data that would substantiate and clearly
warrant such an extension.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 391 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

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

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

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

The Proposed Amendment

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

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
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]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2008-13-12 R1, Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR 67383, November 14, 2008), and
adding the following new AD:

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2015-3984; Directorate Identifier
2015-NM-033-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments on this AD action by November 23,
2015.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2008-13-12 R1, Amendment 39-15719 (73 FR
67383, November 14, 2008).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 737-100, -200, -

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

Notice of Draft Finding of No Significant Impact for the
Washington State Portion of the Pacific Northwest Rail Corridor
Upgrades Tier-1 Environmental Assessment

AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), United States Department
of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of availability; Request for comments on draft Finding
of No Significant Impact.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA) and the FRA's Procedures for Considering Environmental
Impacts (FRA Environmental Procedures) (64 F.R. 28545 (May 26, 1999)),
the FRA and the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)
prepared a Tier-1 Environmental Assessment (Tier-1 EA) that evaluates
the impacts of a corridor improvements program to the Washington State
portion of the Pacific Northwest Rail Corridor (PNWRC Program). Based
on the Tier-1 EA, the FRA has prepared a draft finding of no
significant impact (draft FONSI) and is inviting the public to comment
on the draft.

DATES: Written comments will be accepted on or before August 9, 2010.
Any substantive comments received before the close of the comment
period will be considered and addressed in the final FONSI. Copies of
both the Tier-1 EA and draft FONSI are available on FRA's Web site at:
http://www.fra.dot.gov/Pages/3006.shtml and WSDOT's Web site at http://
www.wsdot.wa.gov/Freight/publications/PassengerRailReports.htm.

ADDRESSES: Please submit written comments on the draft FONSI to
Elizabeth Phinney, Rail Environmental Manager, Washington State
Department of Transportation, State Rail and Marine Office, 310 Maple
Park Ave., SE., P.O. Box 47407, Olympia, WA 98504-7407. Comments may
also be submitted in writing to Melissa DuMond, Environmental
Protection Specialist, ATTN: PNWRC FONSI, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New

Jersey Ave., SE., Stop 20, Washington, DC 20590.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information regarding the
draft FONSI please contact Melissa DuMond, Environmental Protection
Specialist, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave., SE.,
Stop 20, Washington, DC 20590, telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of the PNWRC Program in
Washington State is to improve intercity passenger rail service by
reducing travel times, achieving greater schedule reliability, and
creating capacity for additional trip frequencies in order to
accommodate growing intercity travel demand. To achieve these goals
WSDOT applied for federal funding through the High Speed Intercity
Passenger Rail Program (HSIPR Program) administered by the FRA and
funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act).
WSDOT's application under the Recovery Act was split into three Service
Blocks, and identified incremental service benefits including increased
service levels, improved on-time performance and schedule reliability,
and reduced travel times. The FRA intends to provide funding under the
HSIPR Program for projects contained in two of the three service
blocks.
    In June 2009, the FRA released the HSIPR Program Guidance (Interim
Guidance) that described the eligibility requirements and procedures
for obtaining funding under the HSIPR Program. (74 FR 29901 (June 23,
2009)). The Interim Guidance split the funding opportunities into four
separate tracks. The PNWRC improvements were submitted by Washington
State for consideration for Track 2 funding. The Interim Guidance
required Track 2 applicants to submit, with their application, a
``corridor-wide `service' NEPA study, such as a programmatic or Tier I
EIS.'' (Interim Guidance Section 1.6.2). The Interim Guidance went on
to define Service NEPA as an environmental document, either an
Environmental Impact Statement or an EA, that ``[a]ddresses actions at
a broad level, such as a program concept for an entire corridor.''
(Interim Guidance Section 2.2).
    In order to comply with the requirements of the Interim Guidance,
WSDOT prepared a Tier-1 or ``service'' NEPA document that included the
analysis of two alternatives; the ``No Build'' and the ``Corridor
Service Expansion Alternative.'' The No Build Alternative analyzes what
would happen if there are no further improvements on the PNWRC. The
Corridor Service Expansion Alternative analyzes the effect on the human
and natural environments of the service improvements that involve 23
individual projects that build on one another and collectively meet the
goals of the PNWRC Program to expand and improve service along the
PNWRC. The Tier-1 EA was completed in September, 2009 and was made
available for comment between October 2, 2009 and October 23, 2009 on
the WSDOT Web site. Thirteen agencies submitted written comments. No
individual written comments were received.
    Based on the Tier-1 EA and contingent upon successful completion of
mitigation measures detailed in the draft FONSI, FRA has determined
that the improvements will not have a significant impact on the quality
of the human or natural environment. Therefore, FRA has drafted a FONSI
for the proposed program of improvements. This FONSI based on the Tier-
1 EA has been prepared to comply with NEPA and the FRA's Environmental
Procedures. FRA has concluded that the award of Federal funds to
implement the program of improvements to the Washington State segment
of the PNWRC that are described as Service Blocks 1, 2, and 3 in the
EA, constitute a major Federal action within the meaning of Section
102(c) of NEPA (43 U.S.C. 4321). Prior to release of construction
funding for individual projects, WSDOT will successfully complete
applicable mitigation measures detailed in the draft FONSI and complete
appropriate project-level NEPA evaluations, documentation, and required
determinations for the individual project.
    FRA Environmental Procedures require that a FONSI be made available
to the public for not less than 30 days when the ``nature of the
proposed action is one without precedent.'' Because this is the first
Tier-1 EA and draft FONSI that FRA will issue, this notice invites the
public to comment on the draft FONSI.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on July 2, 2010.

Associate Administrator for Railroad Policy and Development.

    k. This application has been accepted and is now ready for
environmental analysis.
    The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) issued a final rule on
July 15, 2020, revising the regulations under 40 CFR parts 1500-1518
that federal agencies use to implement NEPA (see Update to the
Regulations Implementing the Procedural Provisions of the National
Environmental Policy Act, 85 FR 43,304). The Final Rule became
effective on and applies to any NEPA process begun after September 14,
2020. An agency may also apply the regulations to ongoing activities
and environmental documents begun before September 14, 2020, which
includes the proposed Walden Project. Commission staff intends to
conduct its NEPA review in accordance with CEQ's new regulations.
    l. The Walden Project consists of: (1) A 417-foot-long (consisting
of 165-foot-long east-west and 252-foot-long north-south portions), V-
shaped concrete dam topped with 2-foot-high flashboards; (2) an
impoundment with a surface area of 69 acres at the normal pool
elevation of 321.3 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929
(NGVD29); (3) an intake structure consisting of a 252-foot-long, 56-
foot-wide, 18-foot-deep canal

wide, 29-foot-high powerhouse containing three horizontal double-runner
Francis turbine units with actual ratings of 740 kilowatts (kW), 540
kW, and 360 kW, respectively, for a total capacity of 1,640 kW; \2\ (7)
a 30-foot-long, 37-foot-wide tailrace; (8) a 230-foot-long bypassed
reach; (9) a 115-foot-long transmission line from the project
generators to a New York State Electric and Gas Corporation's 4.16-
kilovolt (kV) distribution line; (10) a substation with a single-phase
13.2-kV transformer; and (11) appurtenant facilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ In an October 14, 2020 filing, Walden Hydro stated that
although the total rated capacity of the project as stated in the

maximum achievable output from each turbine/generator unit is lower
than the stated capacities.
