SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-71267; File Nos. SR-NYSE-2013-72; SR-NYSEMKT-2013-91]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New York Stock Exchange LLC; NYSE
MKT LLC; Notice of Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action
on Proposed Rule Changes To Establish an Institutional Liquidity
Program on a One-Year Pilot Basis

January 9, 2014.
    On November 7, 2013, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE'') and
NYSE MKT LLC (``NYSE MKT'' and together with NYSE, the ``Exchanges'')
each filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'')
pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to
establish an Institutional Liquidity Program (``Program'') on a one-
year pilot basis. The proposed rule changes were published for comment
in the Federal Register on November 27, 2013.\3\ To date, the
Commission has received three comments on the NYSE Proposal.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 70909 (November 21,
2013), 78 FR 71002 (SR-NYSE-2013-72) (``NYSE Proposal''); and 70910
(November 21, 2013), 78 FR 70992 (SR-NYSEMKT-2013-91) (``NYSE MKT
Proposal'') (collectively, the ``Proposals'').
    \4\ See Letters to the Commission from James Allen, Head, and
Rhodri Pierce, Director, Capital Markets Policy, CFA Institute (Dec.
18, 2013); Clive Williams, Vice President and Global Head of
Trading, Andrew M. Brooks, Vice President and Head of U.S. Equity
Trading, and Christopher P. Hayes, Vice President and Legal Counsel,
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (Dec. 18, 2013); and Theodore R.
Lazo, Managing Director and Associate General Counsel, Securities
Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) (Dec. 20, 2013).
The Commission notes that, while these comment letters address the
NYSE proposal only, the Proposals are nearly identical, and the
Commission will consider the letters to address the NYSE MKT
Proposal as well.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \5\ provides that within 45 days of the
publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate
if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its
reasons for so finding or as to which the self-regulatory organization
consents, the Commission shall either approve the proposed rule change,
disapprove the proposed rule change, or institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be disapproved. The
45th day for these filings is January 11, 2014.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission
action on the proposed rule changes. The Commission finds that it is
appropriate to designate a longer period to take action on the proposed
rule changes so that it has sufficient time to consider the Proposals
and the issues raised by the comment letters that have been submitted
in connection with the Proposals.
    Accordingly, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\6\ the
Commission designates February 25, 2014 as the date by which the
Commission should either

approve or disapprove, or institute proceedings to determine whether to
disapprove, the proposed rule changes (File Numbers SR-NYSE-2013-72 and
SR-NYSEMKT-2013-91).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\7\

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission Office of Investor Education and Advocacy Washington, DC
20549-0213.

Extension:
    Rule 17a-6; SEC File No. 270-506, OMB Control No. 3235-0564.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501), the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget
(``OMB'') a request for extension of the previously approved collection
of information discussed below.
    Section 17(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the ``Act'')
generally prohibits affiliated persons of a registered investment
company (``fund'') from borrowing money or other property from, or
selling or buying securities or other property to or from, the fund or
any company that the fund controls.\1\ Rule 17a-6 (17 CFR 270.17a-6)
permits a fund and a ``portfolio affiliate'' (a company that is an
affiliated person of the fund because the fund controls the company, or
holds five percent or more of the company's outstanding voting
securities) to engage in principal transactions that would otherwise be
prohibited under section 17(a) of the Act under certain conditions. A
fund may not rely on the exemption in the rule to enter into a
principal transaction with a portfolio affiliate if certain prohibited
participants (e.g., directors, officers, employees, or investment
advisers of the fund) have a financial interest in a party to the
transaction. Rule 17a-6 specifies certain interests that are not
``financial interests,'' including any interest that the fund's board
of directors (including a majority of the directors who are not
interested persons of the fund) finds to be not material. A board
making this finding is required to record the basis for the finding in
its meeting minutes. This recordkeeping requirement is a collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (``PRA'').\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 80a-17(a).
    \2\ 44 U.S.C. 3501.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The rule is designed to permit transactions between funds and their
portfolio affiliates in circumstances in which it is unlikely that the
affiliate would be in a position to take advantage of the fund. In
determining whether a financial interest is ``material,'' the board of
the fund should consider whether the nature and extent of the interest
in the transaction is sufficiently small that a reasonable person would
not believe that the interest affected the determination of whether to
enter into the transaction or arrangement or the terms of the
transaction or arrangement. The information collection requirements in
rule 17a-6 are intended to ensure that Commission staff can review, in
the course of its compliance and examination functions, the basis for a
board of director's finding that the financial interest of an otherwise
prohibited participant in a party to a transaction with a portfolio
affiliate is not material.
    Based on staff discussions with fund representatives, we estimate
that funds currently do not rely on the exemption from the term
``financial interest'' with respect to any interest that the fund's
board of directors (including a majority of the directors who are not
interested persons of the fund) finds to be not material. Accordingly,
we estimate that annually there will be no principal transactions under
rule 17a-6 that will result in a collection of information.
    The Commission requests authorization to maintain an inventory of
one burden hour to ease future renewals of rule 17a-6's collection of
information analysis should funds rely on this exemption to the term
``financial interest'' as defined in rule 17a-6.
    The estimate of burden hours is made solely for the purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act. The estimate is not derived from a
comprehensive or even a representative survey or study of the costs of
Commission rules. Complying with this collection of information
requirement is necessary to obtain the benefit of relying on rule 17a-
6. 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.

    The public may view the background documentation for this
information collection at the following Web site, www.reginfo.gov.
Comments should be directed to: (i) 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 sending an email to:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and (ii) Pamela Dyson, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email
to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Comments must be submitted to OMB within 30
days of this notice.

I. Proposed Action

    On April 21, 2021 (86 FR 20645), the EPA proposed to approve the
following rule into the California SIP.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Local agency                 Rule #               Rule title              Amended        Submitted

                                                      Than 1,000,000 Btu per
                                                      Hour.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We proposed to approve this rule because we determined that it
complies with the relevant CAA requirements. Our proposed action
contains more information on the rule and our evaluation.

II. Public Comments and EPA Responses

    The EPA's proposed action provided a 30-day public comment period.
During this period, we received no comments.

III. EPA Action

    No comments were submitted. Therefore, as authorized in section
110(k)(3) of the Act, the EPA is fully approving this rule into the
California SIP. The October 25, 2018 version of Rule 414 will replace
the previously approved version of this rule in the SIP.

IV. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, the EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, the EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the
SMAQMD rule described in the amendments to 40 CFR part 52 set forth
below. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these documents
available through www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region IX Office
(please contact the person identified in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section of this preamble for more information).

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, the EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide the EPA with the discretionary authority
to address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or
environmental effects, using practicable and legally permissible
methods, under Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where the EPA or an Indian tribe
has demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of
Indian country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not
impose substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal
law as

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. The EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by September 13, 2021. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

[Docket No. FAA-2019-0485; Product Identifier 2019-NM-064-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all Airbus SAS Model A330-243, A330-243F, A330-341, A330-342, and
A330-343 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of thrust
reverser unit (TRU) beams found with evidence of thermally caused
material degradation in the rearmost section of the TRU beam at certain
latches. This proposed AD would require an inspection for heat damage
of each left-hand and right-hand TRU beam. Depending on findings, this
proposed AD might also require inspections of the TRU beam latches, the
TRU beam clevises, and the thrust reverser outer fixed structure rear
area; corrective actions; and replacement of TRU beams; as specified in
a European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which will be incorporated
by reference. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 12,
2019.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

Discussion

    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2018-0148R1, dated April 5, 2019
(``EASA AD 2018-0148R1'') (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for all Airbus SAS Model A330-243, A330-243F, A330-341, A330-
342, and A330-343 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Occurrences have been reported on A330 aeroplanes fitted with
Trent 700 engines where a TRU beam was found with evidence of
thermally caused material degradation in the rearmost section of the
TRU beam at latches 5, 6 and 7 areas. Subsequent fatigue analysis
determined that the static strength margins of the material of the
TRU beam could be reduced, with detrimental effect on the
operational fatigue life of the beam.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to
disconnection of the TRU from the engine, with possible damage to
the engine adjacent structure and controls, and/or damage to the
aeroplane, and injury to persons on the ground.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Airbus issued the SB
[service bulletin], which includes reference to the instructions of
the NMSB [non-modification service bulletin], providing instructions
to inspect each TRU beam.
    For the reasons described above, EASA issued AD 2018-0148 to
require repetitive special detailed inspections (SDI) of the TRU
beams and, depending on findings, accomplishment of applicable
corrective action(s).
    Since that [EASA] AD was issued, it was found that there may be
cases where the flight cycles (FC) accumulated by a TRU beam are
unknown (at that time, not a tracked part). This [EASA] AD is
revised to clarify that the FC accumulated by the TRU assembly can
be used to determine the first inspection. This revised [EASA] AD
also introduces a new Table 1 (previous Table 1 becomes Table 2) to
improve understanding of the initial compliance time and clarifies
the area to be inspected, as specified in Table 2 of this revised
AD.

Related IBR Material Under 1 CFR part 51

    EASA AD 2018-0148R1 describes procedures for a special detailed
inspection for heat damage of each left-hand and right-hand TRU beam,
detailed inspections of the TRU beam latches for bush migration and
cracks or deformation, detailed inspections of the TRU beam clevises
for cracks and deformation, ultrasonic inspections of the thrust
reverser outer fixed structure rear area for delamination, replacement
of TRU beams, and corrective actions. Corrective actions include
restoring paint, repairing delaminated areas, and measuring latch pin
hole fitting diameters near migrated bushes. This material 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.

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 the FAA's bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority,
the FAA has been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
referenced above. The FAA is proposing this AD because the agency
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.

Proposed Requirements of This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in EASA AD 2018-0148R1 described previously, as incorporated by
reference, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA worked with Airbus and EASA to develop a process to
use certain EASA ADs as the primary source of information for
compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. As a result,
EASA AD 2018-0148R1 will be incorporated by reference in the FAA final
rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with the
provisions specified in EASA AD 2018-0148R1, through that
incorporation, except for any differences identified as exceptions in
the regulatory text of this proposed AD. Service information specified
in EASA AD 2018-0148R1 that is required for compliance with EASA AD
2018-0148R1 will be available on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-
0485 after the FAA final rule is published.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 51 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                           Labor cost                               Parts cost        product        operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 work-hour x $85 per hour = $85................................              $0             $85          $4,335
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of any
required actions. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these on-condition actions:

                Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions *
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                             Cost per
               Labor cost                   Parts cost        product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 work-hours x $85 per hour = $170......              $0            $170
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The table only includes the costs for on-condition inspections. The
  FAA has received no definitive data that would enable the agency to
  provide cost estimates for the on-condition corrective actions and
  replacement specified in this proposed AD.

    According to the manufacturer, some or all of the costs of this
proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost
impact on affected individuals. The FAA does not control warranty
coverage for affected individuals. As a result, the FAA has included
all known costs in our cost estimate.

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 products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This proposed AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated
by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as
authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order,
issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the
Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA 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;

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 adding the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):

Airbus SAS: Docket No. FAA-2019-0485; Product Identifier 2019-NM-
064-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments by August 12, 2019.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all Airbus SAS Model A330-243, A330-243F, A330-
341, A330-342, and A330-343 airplanes, certificated in any category.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 78, Engine exhaust.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by reports of thrust reverser unit (TRU) beams
found with evidence of thermally caused material degradation in the
rearmost section of the TRU beam at certain latches. The FAA is issuing
this AD to address degradation of TRU beams, which could lead to
disconnection of the TRU from the engine, causing possible damage to
the engine adjacent structure and controls, possible damage

to the airplane, and possible injury to people on the ground.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless
already done.

(g) Requirements

    Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all
required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance
with, European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2018-0148R1, dated
April 5, 2019 (``EASA AD 2018-0148R1'').

(h) Exceptions to EASA AD 2018-0148R1

    (1) For purposes of determining compliance with the requirements of
this AD: Where EASA AD 2018-0148R1 refers to its effective date, or
July 27, 2018 (the effective date of EASA AD 2018-0148, dated July 13,
2018), this AD requires using the effective date of this AD.
    (2) The ``Remarks'' section of EASA AD 2018-0148R1 does not apply
to this AD.

(i) No Reporting Requirement

    Although the service information referenced in EASA AD 2018-0148R1
specifies to submit certain information to the manufacturer, this AD
does not include that requirement.

(j) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
International Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA, has the
authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the
procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send
your request to your principal inspector or local Flight Standards
District Office, as appropriate. If sending information directly to the
International Section, send it to the attention of the person
identified in paragraph (k)(2) of this AD. Information may be emailed
to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Before using any approved AMOC,
notify your appropriate principal inspector, or lacking a principal
inspector, the manager of the local flight standards district office/
certificate holding district office.
    (2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD to
obtain instructions from a manufacturer, the instructions must be
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, International
Section, Transport Standards Branch, FAA; or EASA; or Airbus SAS's EASA
Design Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by the DOA, the
approval must include the DOA-authorized signature.
    (3) Required for Compliance (RC): For any service information
referenced in EASA AD 2018-0148R1 that contains RC procedures and
tests: Except as required by paragraph (j)(2) of this AD, RC procedures
and tests must be done to comply with this AD; any procedures or tests
that are not identified as RC are recommended. Those procedures and
tests that are not identified as RC may be deviated from using accepted
methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or inspection
program without obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided the procedures
and tests identified as RC can be done and the airplane can be put back
in an airworthy condition. Any substitutions or changes to procedures
or tests identified as RC require approval of an AMOC.

Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2017-0423.
    Petitioner: Lauren Pelicano: Child Restraint System.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: 121.311.
    Description of Relief Sought: Petitioner seeks an exemption from
Sec.  121.311 to the extent necessary to allow her daughter to use the
Convaid Carrot 3 booster seat on U.S.-registered aircraft in commercial
air carrier operations under part 121. The petitioner states that this
seat supports her daughter's trunk and easily accommodates her height
and weight. The manufacturer (Convaid) has labeled the restraint as
being certified for use in motor vehicles and aircraft. However, the
manufacturer also notes in the user manual that the Convaid Carrot 3 is
not ``FAA certified'' and that the Convaid Carrot 3 must always be
secured with a lap shoulder (3-point) safety belt to secure the child
restraint and the child. The manufacturer further notes that not using
a lap shoulder (3-point) safety belt could cause the child restraint to
not perform as intended and increase the potential of serious injury or
death. Most commercial air carriers operating under part 121 do not
operate aircraft (certificated under part 25) with a lap shoulder (3-
point) safety belt restraint system in the passenger seats on their
aircraft. It is novel for a child restraint system (CRS) to have
labeling that indicates it is certificated for use on aircraft but to
also have a manufacturer's limitation on the type of installed
restraints in the passenger seat that, in effect, prohibits use on most
large commercial aircraft in air carrier operations under part 121.
Therefore, the FAA seeks public comment on whether the FAA should grant
the petitioner's request for an exemption from 14 CFR 121.311 for CRS
that are approved under FMVSS 209, which must always be secured with
lap shoulder (3-point) safety belts to secure the child restraints in
passenger seats, to permit their use on U.S.-registered aircraft in
commercial air carrier operations under part 121.
