[Project No. 13699-000]

Mississippi 13 Hydro, LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions to
Intervene, and Competing Applications

May 11, 2010.
    On April 5, 2010 Mississippi 13 Hydro, LLC filed an application for
a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power
Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the Mississippi River Lock
and Dam 13 Hydroelectric Project, located on the Mississippi
River, in Whiteside County, Iowa. The sole purpose of a preliminary
permit, if issued, is to grant the permit holder priority to file a
license application during the permit term. A preliminary permit does
not authorize the permit holder to perform any land-disturbing
activities or otherwise enter upon lands or waters owned by others
without the owners' express permission.
    The proposed project would consist of: (1) The powerhouse; (2)
installation of four 7.17 megawatt bulb turbines; (3) a proposed 1-
mile-long, 69-kilovolt transmission line; (4) switchyard; and (5)
appurtenant facilities. The proposed Mississippi River Lock and Dam
12 Hydroelectric Project would have an average annual
generation of 129 gigawatt-hours.

Background and Purpose

    On August 20, 2008, The Coast Guard published an NPRM entitled
``Passenger Weight and Inspected Vessel Stability Requirements'' (73 FR
49244). During the NPRM's original comment period, which ended November
18, 2008, members of the public requested that the Coast Guard add to
the docket a study cited in support of certain stability findings that
resulted in proposed changes to 46 CFR 171 in the NPRM.
    The 12-page study, entitled the ``Pontoon Vessel Passenger Crowding
Stability Criteria Study,'' was added to the docket on October 30, 2008
(document number USCG-2007-0030-0139.1). Following the addition of the
study, members of the public stated that they did not have sufficient
time to review and comment on this study before the close of the
comment period. On December 8, 2008, the Coast Guard reopened the
comment period for 60 days to afford the public additional time to
comment (73 FR 74426).
    During the reopened comment period the Coast Guard became aware
that an appendix to the study, that had not been previously released,
would assist the public in understanding the Pontoon Vessel Passenger
Crowding Stability Criteria Study. We added this information, entitled
``Pontoon Vessel Passenger Crowding Stability Criteria Study, Appendix
1'' to the docket on February 09, 2009 (document number USCG-2007-0030-
0204.1). In order to ensure the public has sufficient time to utilize
the information in the appendix we will reopen the comment period,
which closed February 6, 2009, for 30 additional days. The comment
period will close on March 20, 2009. Additionally, you are reminded
that you may comment on any aspect of the rulemaking, including on any
comments placed in the docket. We may change the proposed rules in
response to the comments received.

    Dated: February 10, 2009.

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
Model DHC-8-102, -103, and -106 airplanes and Model DHC-8-200, -300,
and -400 series airplanes. 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:

    Several reports have been received regarding cracking of the
DHC-8 Series 100 rudder actuator mounting bracket. An investigation
revealed that the mounting bracket has been under-designed based on
the static and endurance loading conditions. The failure of the
mounting brackets that attach the power control unit (PCU) to the
airframe could result in a loss of the rudder actuating system. The
loss of both rudder PCU actuators could result in free play of the
rudder control surface and potentially induce a flutter condition.
* * * * *
    The unsafe condition is loss of controllability of the airplane.
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 January 3, 2012.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.

Discussion

    Transport Canada Civil Aviation, which is the aviation authority
for Canada, has issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-2011-12,
dated June 6, 2011 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct
an unsafe condition for the specified products. The MCAI states:

    Several reports have been received regarding cracking of the
DHC-8 Series 100 rudder actuator mounting bracket. An investigation
revealed that the mounting bracket has been under-designed based on
the static and endurance loading conditions. The failure of the
mounting brackets that attach the power control unit (PCU) to the
airframe could result in a loss of the rudder actuating system. The
loss of both rudder PCU actuators could result in free play of the
rudder control surface and potentially induce a flutter condition.
    This [TCCA] directive mandates the installation of a new design
of rudder actuator mounting bracket [adapter].

The unsafe condition is loss of controllability of the airplane. You
may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Bombardier has issued Service Bulletins 8-27-110, Revision C, dated
May 13, 2011; and 84-27-53, dated November 26, 2010. 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 171 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take up to 10 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost up to $2,856 per product. Based on
these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed AD on U.S.
operators to be up to $633,726, or $3,706 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.

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:

    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:

Bombardier, Inc.: Docket No. FAA-2011-1230; Directorate Identifier
2011-NM-141-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) We must receive comments by January 3, 2012.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Bombardier, Inc. airplanes identified in
paragraphs (c)(1) and (c)(2) of this AD, certificated in any
category.
    (1) Model DHC-8-102, -103, -106, -201, -202, -301, -311, and -
315 airplanes, serial numbers 003 through 672 inclusive.
    (2) Model DHC-8-400, -401, and -402 airplanes, serial numbers
4001 through 4343 inclusive.

Subject

    (d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 27: Flight
controls.

Reason

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

    Several reports have been received regarding cracking of the
DHC-8 Series 100 rudder actuator mounting bracket. An investigation
revealed that the mounting bracket has been under-designed based on
the static and endurance loading conditions. The failure of the
mounting brackets that attach the power control unit (PCU) to the
airframe could result in a loss of the rudder actuating system. The
loss of both rudder PCU actuators could result in free play of the
rudder control surface and potentially induce a flutter condition.
* * * * *
The unsafe condition is loss of controllability of the airplane.

Compliance

    (f) You are responsible for having the actions required by this
AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the
actions have already been done.

Free-Play Check and Corrective Actions

    (g) Within 6,000 flight hours or 3 years after the effective
date of this AD, whichever occurs first, do the actions required by
paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2) of this AD, as applicable.
    (1) For Model DHC-8-102, -103, -106, -201, -202, -301, -311, and
-315 airplanes: Install a new CRES mounting adapter with new bolts
by incorporating MODSUM 8Q101890, in accordance with the
Accomplishment Instructions of Bombardier Service Bulletin 8-27-110,
Revision C, dated May 13, 2011.
    (2) For DHC-8-400, -401, and -402 airplanes: Replace the
existing upper and lower mounting adapters of the PCU with
redesigned adapters by incorporating MODSUM 4-113655, in accordance
with the Accomplishment Instructions of Bombardier Service Bulletin
84-27-53, dated November 26, 2010.

Credit for Actions Accomplished in Accordance With Previous Service

accordance with Bombardier Service Bulletins 8-27-110, Revision A,
dated December 3, 2010, and Revision B, dated January 31, 2011, are
considered acceptable for compliance with the corresponding actions
specified in paragraph (g)(1) of this AD.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54184; File No. SR-CBOE-2006-66]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing of a Proposed Rule Change Regarding
Market-Maker Appointments

July 20, 2006.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on July 11, 2006, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``CBOE'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the
Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments
on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    CBOE proposes to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 relating to Market-Maker
appointments. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.com), at the CBOE's Office of the

Secretary, and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of 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 the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 with respect to
Market-Maker appointments. Currently, pursuant to CBOE Rule 8.1, a
Market-Maker is by definition an individual (either a member or nominee
of a member organization) who is registered with the Exchange for the
purpose of making transactions as a dealer-specialist on the
Exchange.\3\ Under CBOE Rule 8.3, an individual Market-Maker's
appointment(s) are in the name of the Market-Maker even if the Market-
Maker is a nominee of a member organization or has registered the
Market-Maker's membership for a member organization.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ An RMM, on the other hand, can be either an individual
member or a member organization. See CBOE Rule 8.4(a).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    CBOE proposes to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 to provide that in the event a
Market-Maker is a nominee of a member organization or has registered
the Market-Maker's membership for a member organization, the member
organization with which the Market-Maker is associated would be
permitted to request that the Exchange deem all class appointments be
made to the member organization instead of to the individual Market-
Maker. In such a case, if an individual Market-Maker were no longer
associated with a member organization, the class appointments would
continue to be held by the member organization and not the individual
Market-Maker. A member organization, however, would not be required to
make such a request. In the event a member organization did not request
that the class appointments be held by the member organization, a
Market-Maker's class appointments would continue to be held in the name
of the individual Market-Maker and not the member organization with
which the Market-Maker is associated.
    Additionally, CBOE proposes to amend CBOE Rule 8.3 to provide that
if such a request is made by a member organization, CBOE would consider
that the submission of electronic quotations and orders would be made
by and on behalf of the member organization with which the individual
Market-Maker is associated. However, CBOE Rule 8.3, as proposed to be
amended, states that the individual Market-Maker would continue to have
all of the obligations of a Market-Maker under Exchange rules in these
circumstances.
    Finally, CBOE proposes to replace various references to
``appropriate Market Performance Committee'' with the ``Exchange'' in
CBOE Rule 8.3. Certain of these changes make the rule consistent with
current practice and procedures. Additionally, CBOE would be permitted
to continue to delegate to the appropriate Market Performance Committee
various duties and responsibilities.
2. Statutory Basis
    CBOE believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act
\4\ and the rules and regulations under the Act applicable to a
national securities exchange and, in particular, the requirements of
Section 6(b) of the Act.\5\ Specifically, the Exchange believes the
proposed rule change is consistent with the Section 6(b)(5) \6\
requirements that the rules of an exchange be designed to remove
impediments to and perfect the mechanism for a free and open market and
a national market system, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest.

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

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

    CBOE 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

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which CBOE consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
