14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 30836; Amdt. No. 3473]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or revokes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports.
These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or
revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National
Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective April 16, 2012. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of April 16, 2012.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matter incorporated by reference in the
amendment is as follows:
    For Examination--

telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by amending the referenced SIAPs.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP is listed on the
appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National Flight Data
Center (FDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is incorporated
by reference in the amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and
Sec.  97.20 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
    The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the need for a
special format make their verbatim publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use the regulatory
text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages
of incorporation by reference are realized and publication of the
complete description of each SIAP contained in FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the types of SIAP and the corresponding effective dates. 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 as amended in the transmittal. For safety and
timeliness of change considerations, this amendment incorporates only
specific changes contained for each SIAP as modified by FDC/P-NOTAMs.
    The SIAPs, as modified by FDC P-NOTAM, and contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts. The circumstances which created the need for all
these SIAP amendments requires making them effective in less than 30
days.
    Because of the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs
and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and public procedure
before adopting these SIAPs are impracticable and contrary to the
public interest and, where applicable, that good cause exists for
making these 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.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Food and Drug Administration

[Docket No. FDA-2019-N-2809]

Advisory Committee; Patient Engagement Advisory Committee;
Renewal

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice; renewal of Federal advisory committee.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is
announcing the renewal of the Patient Engagement Advisory Committee by
the Commissioner of Food and Drugs (the Commissioner). The Commissioner
has determined that it is in the public interest to renew the Patient
Engagement Advisory Committee for an additional 2 years beyond the
charter expiration date. The new charter will be in effect until the
October 6, 2025, expiration date.

DATES: Authority for the Patient Engagement Advisory Committee would
have expired on October 6, 2025, unless the Commissioner had formally
determined that renewal is in the public interest.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Letise Williams, Office of the Center
Director, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug
Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 5407, Silver
Spring, MD 20993-0002,<PHONE_NUMBER>, [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.65 and approval by
the Department of Health and Human Services and by the General Services
Administration, FDA is announcing the renewal of the Patient Engagement
Advisory Committee (the Committee). The Committee is a discretionary
Federal advisory committee established to provide advice to the
Commissioner. The Patient Engagement Advisory Committee advises the
Commissioner or designee in discharging responsibilities as they relate
to helping to ensure safe and effective devices for human use and, as
required, any other product for which FDA has regulatory
responsibility.
    The Committee provides advice to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs
or designee on complex scientific, issues relating to medical devices,
the regulation of devices, and their use by patients. Agency guidance
and policies, clinical trial or registry design, patient preference
study design, benefit-risk determinations, device labeling, unmet
clinical needs, available alternatives, patient reported outcomes, and
device-related quality of life measures or health status issues are
among the topics that may be considered by the Committee. The Committee
provides relevant skills and perspectives to improve communication of
benefits, risks, and clinical outcomes, and increase integration of
patient perspectives into the regulatory process for medical devices.
It performs its duties by identifying new approaches, promoting
innovation, recognizing unforeseen risks or barriers, and identifying
unintended consequences that could result from FDA policy.
    Pursuant to its Charter, the Committee shall consist of a core of
nine voting members, including the Chair. Members and the Chair are
selected by the Commissioner or designee from among authorities who are
knowledgeable in areas such as clinical research, patient experience,
and healthcare needs of patient groups in the United States, or who are
experienced in the work of patient and health professional
organizations, methodologies for patient reported outcomes and
eliciting patient preferences, and strategies for communicating
benefits, risks, and clinical outcomes to patients and research
subjects, as well as other relevant areas. Members will be invited to
serve for overlapping terms of up to 4 years. Non-Federal members of
this committee will serve as either as Special Government Employees or
non-voting representatives. Federal members will serve as Regular
Government Employees. The core of voting members may include one
technically qualified member, selected by the Commissioner or designee,
who serves as an individual, but who is identified with consumer
interests and is recommended by either a consortium of consumer-
oriented organizations or other interested persons. The Commissioner or
designee shall also have the authority to select from a group of
individuals nominated by industry to serve temporarily as nonvoting
members who are identified with industry interests. The number of
temporary members selected for a particular meeting will depend on the
meeting topic.
    The Commissioner or designee shall also have the authority to
select members of other scientific and technical FDA advisory
committees (normally not to exceed 10 members) to serve temporarily as
voting members and to designate consultants to serve temporarily as
voting members when: (1) expertise is required that is not available
among current voting standing members of the Committee (when additional
voting members are added to the Committee to provide needed expertise,
a quorum will be based on the combined total of regular and added
members); or (2) to comprise a quorum when, because of unforeseen
circumstances, a quorum is or will be lacking. Because of the size of
the Committee and the variety in the types of issues that it will
consider, FDA may, in connection with a particular committee meeting,
specify a quorum that is less than a majority of the current voting
members. The Agency's regulations (21 CFR 14.22(d)) authorize a
committee charter to specify quorum requirements.
    Further information regarding the most recent charter and other
information can be found at https://www.fda.gov/advisory-committees/committees-and-meeting-materials/patient-engagement-advisory-committee
or by contacting the Designated Federal Officer (see FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT). In light of the fact that no change has been made
to the committee name or description of duties, no amendment will be
made to 21 CFR 14.100.
    This notice is issued under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5
U.S.C. app.). For general information related to FDA advisory
committees,

    Dated: October 30, 2023.
