SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Public Law 93-498 provides for the gathering
and analyzing of data as deemed useful and applicable for fire
departments. The U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) receives many requests
from fire service organizations and the general public for information
related to fire departments, including total number of departments,
number of stations per department, population protected, and number of
firefighters. The USFA also has a need for this information to guide
programmatic decisions, and produce mailing lists for USFA
publications. Recommendations for the creation of the fire department
census database came out of a Blue Ribbon Panel's review of the USFA.
The report included a review of the structure, mission, and funding of
the USFA, future policies, programmatic needs, course development and
delivery, and the role of the USFA to reflect changes in the fire
service. As a result of those recommendations, the USFA is working to
identify all fire departments in the United States to develop a
database that will include information related to demographics,
capabilities, and activities of fire departments Nationwide. In the
fall of 2016, the USFA renamed the census to the National Fire
Department Registry.
    In the fall of 2001, information was collected from 16,000 fire
departments. Since the first year of the collection, an additional
11,217 departments have registered for a total of 27,217 fire
departments. This leaves an estimated 2,780 departments still to
respond. Additionally, about 5,440 current registered departments are
contacted by USFA each year and are asked to provide updates to any
previously submitted information.

    DHS Department of Homeland Security
    FR Federal Register
    NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    On September 16, 2004, a mudslide resulted from Hurricane Ivan's
storm surge that toppled the Mississippi Canyon (MC) 20 Platform A. The
platform's wells were covered by more than 100-feet of mud and
sediment. As a result of structural damage, plumes containing crude oil
and gas have been discharging into the Gulf of Mexico, creating a sheen
on the surface of the water.
    The Responsible Party for this incident has undertaken an operation
to install a containment dome over the affected area, which would catch
the oil rising from the seabed. Anchoring, mooring, fishing, or
otherwise loitering in the area above the containment dome could
potentially cause structural damage and failure to the containment
dome, wellheads, well piping system and closure valves, which would
reduce the dome's effectiveness and potentially release oil and gas
into the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, regulating navigation in this area
is necessary to protect the collection and subsurface monitoring system
and to reduce the potentially negative impacts to the environment from
the pluming oil.
    On April 29, 2013, the Coast Guard established this regulated
navigation area with an interim rule and request for comments, pursuant
to authority under section 4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act
(APA) (5 U.S.C.(b)) (78 FR 24987). This regulation was later amended on
June 11, 2013 (78 FR 34894), to correct the exact location of regulated
area above the containment dome. The Coast Guard received two comments
on this rulemaking, discussed in more detail below. The Coast Guard did
not hold a public meeting and no public meeting was requested.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The Coast Guard's basis for this rule includes 33 U.S.C. 1231; 46
U.S.C. Chapter 701, 3306, 3706, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05-
1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6, and 160.5; Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; and
Department of homeland Security delegation No. 0170.1. The Purpose of
the rule is to establish a regulated navigation area for the protection
of oil spill containment measures in the Gulf of Mexico.

C. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule

    The Coast Guard received two comments regarding this rulemaking.
One comment was from the Department of the Interior noting that the
Department reviewed the rule and had no comment. One comment was from a
private citizen generally opposed to the regulation. This comment did
not contain any specific objections to the rule or recommendations for
altering the rule. Despite this general objection, the Coast Guard has
decided to continue with the rulemaking and permanently establish this
regulated navigation area to protect the environment by limiting damage
to the subsea oil containment system.

D. Discussion of the Final Rule

    This rule creates a regulated navigation area of a 300-foot
diameter centered at 28[deg]56'12.619'' N, 088[deg]58'10.303'' W, and
extending the entire water column from the surface to the seabed.
Vessels may transit freely through this area, but must not anchor,
moor, fish, or otherwise loiter in the area, unless they have been
granted special authorization by the Captain of the Port New Orleans.
This regulated navigation area will be in effect from the date this
rule is published in the Federal Register until cancelled by the
District Commander.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on these statutes and executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders. Those impacts on
navigation users are expected to be minimal because the enforcement of
this RNA does not prohibit vessels from transiting through the area
described above. This RNA prohibits only the anchoring, mooring,
fishing, or loitering of vessels within the 300-foot diameter section
of the protected area.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 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 business, 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.
    This rule would affect the following entities, some of which might
be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to
anchor, moor, fish, or loiter in the regulated area. This regulated
navigation area will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons. The
establishment of this RNA encompasses a limited area of the Gulf of
Mexico and there will be minimal to no impact to commercial vessel
traffic. This RNA only prohibits vessels from anchoring, mooring,
fishing, or loitering in the area described above. Transiting through
the

above described area is authorized and notification of the enforcement
of this RNA will be disseminated to the marine community through
broadcast notice to mariners.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    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
contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT,
above.
    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.

4. 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).

5. Federalism

    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 determined
that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact 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.

7. 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.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

10. Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    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.

12. Energy Effects

    This action is not a ``significant energy action'' under Executive
Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

13. Technical Standards

    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA)(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 establishing a regulated navigation
area of a 300-foot diameter, extending the entire water column from the
water surface to the seabed. This rule is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of the Commandant
Instruction. An environmental analysis checklist supporting this
determination and a Categorical Exclusion Determination are available
in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

For public commenters, it is important to note that EPA's policy is that public comments, whether submitted electronically or in paper, will be made available for public viewing in EPA's electronic public docket as EPA receives them and without change, unless the comment contains copyrighted material, CBI, or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. When EPA identifies a comment containing copyrighted material, EPA will provide a reference to that material in the version of the comment that is placed in EPA's electronic public docket. The entire printed comment, including the copyrighted material, will be available in the public docket. Public comments submitted on computer disks that are mailed or delivered to the docket will be transferred to EPA's electronic public docket. Public comments that are mailed or delivered to the Docket will be scanned and placed in EPA's electronic public docket. Where practical, physical objects will be photographed, and the photograph will be placed in EPA's electronic public docket along with a brief description written by the docket staff.

C. How and To Whom Do I Submit Comments? You may submit comments electronically, by mail, or through hand delivery/ courier. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, identify the appropriate docket ID number in the subject line on the first page of your comment. Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the specified comment period. Comments received after the close of the comment period will be marked `` late.'' EPA is not required to consider these late comments. If you wish to submit CBI or information that is otherwise protected by statute, please follow the instructions in Unit I. D. Do not use EPA Dockets or e mail to submit CBI or information protected by statute. 1. Electronically. If you submit an electronic comment as prescribed in this unit, EPA recommends that you include your name, mailing address, and an email address or other contact information in the body of your comment. Also include this contact information on the outside of any disk or CD ROM you submit, and in any cover letter accompanying the disk or CD ROM. This ensures that you can be identified as the submitter of the comment and allows EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties or needs further information on the substance of your comment. EPA's policy is that EPA will not edit your comment, and any identifying or contact information provided in the body of a comment will be included as part of the comment that is placed in the official public docket, and made available in EPA's electronic public docket. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. i. EPA Dockets. Your use of EPA's electronic public docket to submit comments to EPA electronically is EPA's preferred method for receiving comments. Go directly to EPA Dockets at http:// www. epa. gov/ edocket, and follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once in the system, select `` search,'' and then key in docket ID number OPP   2003   0048. The system is an`` anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your identity, e mail address, or other contact information unless you provide it in the body of your comment. ii. E mail. Comments may be sent by e mail to opp docket@ epa. gov, Attention: Docket ID Number OPP   2003   0048. In contrast to EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's e mail system is not an `` anonymous access'' system. If you send an e mail comment directly to the docket without going through EPA's electronic public docket, EPA's e mail system automatically captures your e mail address. E mail addresses that are automatically captured by EPA's e mail system are included as part of the comment that is VerDate Jan< 31> 2003 16: 38 Mar 11, 2003 Jkt 200001 PO 00000 Frm 00043 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\ FR\ FM\ 12MRN1.

Such deliveries are only accepted during the docket's normal hours of operation as identified in Unit I. B. 1.

D. How Should I Submit CBI To the Agency?

Do not submit information that you consider to be CBI electronically through EPA's electronic public docket or by e mail. You may claim information that you submit to EPA as CBI by marking any part or all of that information as CBI ( if you submit CBI on disk or CD ROM, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the specific information that is CBI). Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2. In addition to one complete version of the comment that includes any information claimed as CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket and EPA's electronic public docket. If you submit the copy that does not contain CBI on disk or CD ROM, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM clearly that it does not contain CBI. Information not marked as CBI will be included in the public docket and EPA's electronic public docket without prior notice. If you have any questions about CBI or the procedures for claiming CBI, please consult the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. E. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your comments: 1. Explain your views as clearly as possible. 2. Describe any assumptions that you used. 3. Provide copies of any technical information and/ or data you used that support your views. 4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you arrived at the estimate that you provide. 5. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns. 6. Offer alternative ways to improve the registration activity. 7. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline in this notice. 8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal Register citation.

Acceptance Criteria for Portable Oxygen Concentrators Used On
Board Aircraft; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Office of the
Secretary (OST), Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This final rule replaces the existing process by which the
Federal Aviation Administration (Agency or FAA) approves portable
oxygen concentrators (POC) for use on board aircraft in air carrier
operations, commercial operations, and certain other operations using
large aircraft. The FAA currently assesses each POC make and model on a
case-by-case basis and if the FAA determines that a particular POC is
safe for use on board an aircraft, the FAA conducts rulemaking to
identify the specific POC model in an FAA regulation. This final rule
replaces the current process and allows passengers to use a POC on
board an aircraft if the POC satisfies certain acceptance criteria and
bears a label indicating conformance with the acceptance criteria. The
labeling requirement only affects POCs intended for use on board
aircraft that were not previously approved for use on aircraft by the
FAA. Additionally, this rulemaking will eliminate redundant operational
requirements and paperwork requirements related to the physician's
statement. As a result, this rulemaking will reduce burdens for POC
manufacturers, passengers who use POCs while traveling, and affected
aircraft operators. This final rule also makes conforming amendments to
the Department of Transportation's (Department or DOT) rule
implementing the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) to require carriers to
accept all POC models that meet FAA acceptance criteria as detailed in
this rule.

DATES: This correction will become effective on June 23, 2016.

this action, contact DK Deaderick, 121 Air Carrier Operations Branch,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On May 24, 2016, the FAA published a final rule entitled,
``Acceptance Criteria for Portable Oxygen Concentrators Used On Board
Aircraft'' (81 FR 33098).
    This final rule affects the use of POCs on board aircraft in
operations conducted under title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR) parts 121, 125, and 135, by replacing the existing FAA case-
by-case approval process for each make and model of POC in Special
Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) No. 106, with FAA acceptance
criteria. Under SFAR No. 106, each time the FAA approves a specific
model of POC for use on board aircraft, the agency updates the list of
approved POCs in the SFAR.
    This final rule removes SFAR No. 106 and replaces it with POC
acceptance criteria and specific labeling requirements to identify POCs
that conform to the acceptance criteria. POCs that conform to the final
rule acceptance criteria will be allowed on board aircraft without
additional FAA review and rulemaking.
    As with existing requirements for FAA approval of POCs that may be
used on aircraft, the final rule acceptance criteria and labeling
requirement only apply to POCs intended for use on board aircraft.
Table 1 provides a comparison of the final rule acceptance criteria and
labeling requirement with related SFAR No. 106.
    However, the final rule was published with an incorrect amendment
number, ``11-59,'' which is the same amendment number as the rule
entitled ``Administrative Practices and Procedures, Reporting and
Recordkeeping Requirements '' (81 FR 13969), published on March 16,
2016. The correct amendment number for this rule should be ``11-60.''

Correction

    In FR Doc. 2016-11908 beginning on page 33098 in the Federal
Register of May 24, 2016, make the following correction:

Correction

    1. On page 33098, in the first column, in the document heading,

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC
20549.

Extension:
    Rule 17a-11 SEC File No. 270-94 OMB Control No. 3235-0085

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget a request for an extension of the previously approved
collection of information discussed below.
    In response to an operational crisis in the securities industry
between 1967 and 1970, the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') adopted Rule 17a-11 (17 CFR 240.17a-11) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (``Exchange
Act'') on July 11, 1971. The Rule requires broker-dealers that are
experiencing financial or operational difficulties to provide notice to
the Commission, the broker-dealer's designated examining authority
(``DEA''), and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (``CFTC'') if
the broker-dealer is registered with the CFTC as a futures commission
merchant. Rule 17a-11 is an integral part of the Commission's financial
responsibility program which enables the Commission, a broker-dealer's
DEA, and the CFTC to increase surveillance of a broker-dealer
experiencing difficulties and to obtain any additional information
necessary to gauge the broker-dealer's financial or operational
condition.
    Rule 17a-11 also requires over-the-counter (``OTC'') derivatives
dealers and broker-dealers that are permitted to compute net capital
pursuant to Appendix E to Exchange Act Rule 15c3-1 to notify the
Commission when their tentative net capital drops below certain levels.
OTC derivatives dealers must also provide notice to the Commission of
backtesting exceptions identified pursuant to Appendix F of Rule 15c3-1
(17 CFR 240.15c3-1f).
    Compliance with the Rule is mandatory. The Commission will
generally not publish or make available to any person notice or reports
received pursuant to Rule 17a-11. The Commission believes that
information obtained under Rule 17a-11 relates to a condition report
prepared for the use of the Commission, other Federal governmental
authorities, and securities industry self-regulatory organizations
responsible for the regulation or supervision of financial
institutions.
    Only broker-dealers whose capital declines below certain specified
levels or who are otherwise experiencing financial or operational
problems have a reporting burden under Rule 17a-11. In 2005, the
Commission received approximately 600 notices under this Rule. The
Commission did not receive any Rule 17a-11 notices from OTC derivatives
dealers or broker-dealers that are permitted to compute net capital
pursuant to Appendix E to Exchange Act Rule 15c3-1.
    Each broker-dealer reporting pursuant to Rule 17a-11 will spend
approximately one hour preparing and transmitting the notice required
by the Rule. Accordingly, the total estimated annualized burden under
Rule 17a-11 is 600 hours.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
    Comments regarding the estimated burden hours should be directed
to: (i) The Desk Officer for the Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, Room 10102, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503
or by e-mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and (ii) R. Corey Booth,
Director/Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission,
c/o Shirley Martinson, 6432 General Green Way, Alexandria, VA 22312, or
by e-mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Comments must be submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget within 30 days of this notice.

    The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, in addition
to their complex nature and the need for a special format make
publication in the Federal Register expensive and impractical.
Furthermore, airmen do not use the regulatory text of the SIAPs,
Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to their depiction on
charts printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. The advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on
FAA forms is unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR
sections and specifies the types of SIAPs and the effective dates of
the, associated Takeoff Minimums and ODPs. This amendment also
identifies the airport and its location, the procedure, and the
amendment number.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP as contained in the
transmittal. Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and textual ODP amendments
may have been issued previously by the FAA in a Flight Data Center
(FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency action of immediate
flight safety relating directly to published aeronautical charts. The
circumstances which created the need for some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums
and ODP amendments may require making them effective in less than 30
days. For the remaining SIAPS and Takeoff Minimums and ODPS, an
effective date at least 30 days after publication is provided.
    Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPS contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these SIAPS and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the affected airports. Because of
the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and
public procedures before adopting these SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs are impracticable and contrary to the public interest and, where
applicable, that good cause exists for making some SIAPs effective in
less than 30 days.

Conclusion

    The FAA has determined that this 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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
