SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it would expand the availability of RNAV in Alaska and
improve the efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace
System (NAS) by lessening the dependency on ground based navigation.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F
lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service
routes, and reporting points.

Background

    In 2003, Congress enacted the Vision 100-Century of Aviation
Reauthorization Act (Pub. L. 108-176), which established a joint
planning and development office in the FAA to manage the work related
to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). Today,
NextGen is an ongoing FAA-led modernization of the nation's air
transportation system to make flying safer, more efficient, and more
predictable.
    In support of NextGen, this proposal is part of a larger and
comprehensive T-route modernization project in the state of Alaska. The
project mission statement states: ``To modernize Alaska's Air Traffic
Service route structure using satellite based navigation Development of
new T-routes and optimization of existing T-routes will enhance safety,
increase efficiency and access, and will provide en route continuity
that is not subject to the restrictions associated with ground based
airway navigation.'' As part of this project, the FAA evaluated the
existing Colored Airway structure for: (a) Direct replacement (i.e.,
overlay) with a T-route that offers a similar or lower Minimum En route
Altitude (MEA) or Global Navigation Satellite System Minimum En route
Altitude (GNSS MEA); (b) the replacement of the colored airway with a
T-route in an optimized but similar geographic area, while retaining
similar or lower MEA; or (c) removal with no route structure (T-route)
restored in that area because the value was determined to be
insignificant.
    The aviation industry/users have indicated a desire for the FAA to
transition the Alaskan en route navigation structure away from
dependency on Non-Directional Beacons (NDB), and move to develop and
improve the RNAV route structure. The FAA proposes to establish RNAV
route T-375 to provide an alternate routing for Colored Federal airways
A-4, A-9, and A-3. The proposed route would provide a lower GNSS MEA
than current routes, while also establishing an RNAV alternative (ZENSA
waypoint (WP)) for the Anaktuvuk Pass, AK, (AKP) NDB.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to establish
RNAV route T-375 in the vicinity of Bettles, AK in support of a large
and comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of
Alaska. The proposed route is described below.
    T-375: The FAA proposes to establish RNAV route T-375 from the
Bettles, AK, (BTT) VHF Omnidirectional Range/distance measuring system
(VOR/DME) to the DERIK, AK, WP, located northeast of AKP.
    United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph
6011 of FAA Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 2021 and effective
September 15, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.
The RNAV listed in this document would be published subsequently in FAA
Order JO 7400.11F.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed 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
Department of Transportation (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.
Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

Airworthiness Directives; Leonardo S.p.a. Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for certain Leonardo S.p.a. Model A109E helicopters. This proposed AD
was prompted by reports that certain tail rotor gearbox assemblies were
installed on Model A109E helicopters and those parts are not approved
for installation on that helicopter model. Because those assemblies are
not part of the type design for Model A109E helicopters, there are no
overhaul or life limits included in the applicable maintenance manuals.
This proposed AD would require replacement of each affected tail rotor
gearbox assembly with a serviceable part, as specified in a European
Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for
incorporation by reference (IBR). 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 October 12,
2021.

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

Background

    EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2021-0031, dated January 22, 2021
(EASA AD 2021-0031), to correct an unsafe condition for Leonardo
S.p.A., formerly Finmeccanica S.p.A., AgustaWestland S.p.A., and Agusta
S.p.A., Model A109E helicopters, all serial numbers up to 11160
inclusive.

    This proposed AD was prompted by reports that certain tail rotor
gearbox assemblies were installed on Model A109E helicopters and those
parts are not approved for installation on that helicopter model.
During revisions to the Model A109E technical publications it was noted
that the 90-degree tail rotor gearbox assembly, part number (P/N) 109-
0440-01-115, is included in the illustrated parts catalog (IPC) for
helicopters with serial numbers (S/N) up to and including S/N 11160.
The IPC incorrectly identifies this part number as a replacement part
for P/N 109-0440-01-119 or P/N 109-0440-01-121.
    The FAA is proposing this AD to address installation of tail rotor
gearbox assembly P/N 109-0440-01-115 that is not approved for
installation on Model A109E helicopters. Because P/N 109-0440-01-115 is
not part of the type design for Model A109E helicopters, there are no
overhaul or life limits included in the applicable maintenance manuals.
If a tail rotor gearbox is not properly maintained it could fail,
resulting in reduced control of the helicopter. See EASA AD 2021-0031
for additional background information.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2021-0031 requires replacement of a tail rotor gearbox
assembly P/N 109-0440-01-115 with a serviceable part. EASA AD 2021-0031
also prohibits installation of tail rotor gearbox assembly P/N 109-
0440-01-115 on any Leonardo S.p.A. Model A109E helicopter.
    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

    These helicopters have been approved by EASA and are approved for
operation in the United States. Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral
agreement with the European Union, EASA has notified the FAA about the
unsafe condition described in its AD. The FAA is proposing this AD
after evaluating all known relevant information and determining that
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
on other helicopters of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in EASA AD 2021-0031, described previously, as incorporated by
reference, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this proposed AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA developed a process to use some civil aviation
authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of information for compliance
with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has been
coordinating this process with manufacturers and CAAs. As a result, the
FAA proposes to incorporate EASA AD 2021-0031 by reference in the FAA
final rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with
EASA AD 2021-0031 in its entirety through that incorporation, except
for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of
this proposed AD. Using common terms that are the same as the heading
of a particular section in EASA AD 2021-0031 does not mean that
operators need comply only with that section. For example, where the AD
requirement refers to ``all required actions and compliance times,''
compliance with this AD requirement is not limited to the section
titled ``Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s)'' in EASA AD 2021-
0031. Service information required by EASA AD 2021-0031 for compliance
will be available at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and
locating Docket No. FAA-2021-0695 after the FAA final rule is
published.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 70 helicopters of U.S. Registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                Action                         Labor cost           Parts cost        product        operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replacement...........................  12 work-hours x $85 per          $82,500         $83,520      $5,846,400
                                         hour = $1,020.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate.
According to the manufacturer, however, some of the costs of this
proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost
impact on affected operators.

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.

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,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would 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

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:

Leonardo S.p.a.: Docket No. FAA-2021-0695; Project Identifier MCAI-
2021-00096-R.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments on this airworthiness directive
(AD) by October 12, 2021.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Leonardo S.p.a. Model A109E helicopters,
certificated in any category, with an affected part as identified in
European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2021-0031, dated
January 22, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0031) installed.

(d) Subject

    Joint Aircraft Service Component (JASC) Code: 6520, Tail Rotor
Gearbox.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports that certain tail rotor gearbox
assemblies were installed on Model A109E helicopters and those parts
are not approved for installation on that helicopter model. Because
tail rotor gearbox assembly part number (P/N) 109-0440-01-115 is not
part of the type design for Model A109E helicopters, there are no
overhaul or life limits included in the applicable maintenance
manuals. The FAA is issuing this AD to address installation of tail
rotor gearbox assembly P/N 109-0440-01-115 on Model A109E
helicopters that do not have overhaul or life limits for that part.
If a tail rotor gearbox is not properly maintained it could fail,
resulting in reduced control of the helicopter.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Requirements

14 CFR Part 71

[Docket No. FAA-2017-0210; Airspace Docket No. 17-AGL-10]

Amendment of Class D and E Airspace; Kenosha, WI

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class D airspace, Class E airspace
designated as a surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward
from 700 feet above the surface, and removes Class E airspace
designated as an extension of Class D airspace at Kenosha Regional
Airport, Kenosha, WI. This action is required due to the
decommissioning of the Kenosha VHF omnidirectional range (VOR), which
provided navigation guidance for portions of the affected routes. This
action enhances the safety and management of instrument flight rules
(IFR) operations at the airport. Also, the airport name and geographic
coordinates are adjusted in the Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface.

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, October 12, 2017. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
Title 1, Code of Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to the annual
revision of FAA Order 7400.11 and publication of conforming amendments.

ADDRESSES: FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and Reporting
Points, and subsequent amendments can be viewed online at http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/. For further information, you can

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in

Title 49 of the United States Code. 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.
This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it modifies Class D airspace, Class E airspace designated as a
surface area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface, and removes Class E airspace designated as an extension of
Class D airspace at Kenosha Regional Airport, Kenosha, WI.

History

    On May 19, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82 FR
22922) Docket No. FAA-2017-0210, a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
to modify Class D airspace, Class E airspace designated as a surface
area, and Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface, and remove Class E airspace designated as an extension of
Class D airspace at Kenosha Regional Airport, Kenosha, WI. Interested
parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by
submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments
were received.
    Subsequent to publication, the FAA determined that the exclusionary
language contained in the Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface airspace description is no longer required and
has been removed in this action. Additionally, a typographical error
was made in the geographic coordinates for the airport in the Class E
airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface airspace
description and has been corrected in this action.
    Except for the changes noted above, this final rule is the same as
published in the NPRM.
    Class D and E airspace designations are published in paragraph
5000, 6002, 6004, and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order 7400.11A, dated
August 3, 2016, and effective September 15, 2016, which is incorporated
by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace designations
listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2016, and effective September 15,
2016. FAA Order 7400.11A is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71:
    Modifies the Class D airspace to within a 4.2-mile radius
(increased from a 4.1-mile radius) of Kenosha Regional Airport,
Kenosha, WI;
    Modifies the Class E airspace designated as a surface area to
within a 4.2-mile radius (increased from a 4.1-mile radius) of Kenosha
Regional Airport, and removes the Kenosha VOR and the 7-mile extension
northeast of the airport;
    Removes the Class E airspace designated as an extension to Class D
airspace at Kenosha Regional Airport; and
    Modifies the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to within a 6.7-mile radius (reduced from a 7-mile radius)
of Kenosha Regional Airport (formerly Kenosha Municipal Airport), with
an extension from the Kenosha Localizer to 10 miles west of the
localizer, and updates the name and geographic coordinates of the
airport to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of
the Kenosha VOR and to bring the airspace in compliance with FAA Order
JO 7400.2L, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters, at this airport.
Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of
standard instrument approach procedures for IFR operations at the
airport.
    Additionally, this action replaces the outdated term Airport/
Facility Directory with the term Chart Supplement in the Class D and
Class E surface area airspace legal descriptions.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. 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. Since this is a routine matter
that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5.a. This airspace action is not expected
to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-59286; File No. SR-DTC-2009-01]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The Depository Trust Company;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Relating
to the Deposits Service Guide

January 23, 2009.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act''),\1\ notice is hereby given that on January 5, 2009, The
Depository Trust Company (``DTC'') 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
primarily by DTC. DTC filed the proposed rule change pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \2\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(4) thereunder
\3\ so that the proposal was effective upon filing with the Commission.
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\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The proposed rule change will amend DTC's Deposits Service Guide.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, DTC 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 these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. DTC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

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

    Under this rule change, DTC will amend its Deposits Service Guide
by eliminating the Legal Guidance System (``LGS'') and by making other
minor clarifications.
    LGS is a Participant Terminal Service function that enables DTC
participants to obtain comprehensive information on state and local
regulations that must be followed when making a legal deposit. This
function has been superseded by the Securities Transfer Association
(``STA'') Guidelines that are consistent with DTC's processing and is
now obsolete. All DTC participants have access to the STA guidelines
through the public STA Web site (http://www.stai.org).
    Additionally, DTC is making some minor corrections and
clarifications to the Deposits Service Guide. Specifically, an
inadvertent reference to ``restricted'' deposit in the legal deposits
section of the Deposit Service Guide is removed; clarifying language to
the time it takes for appropriate payments and exchange of shares to be
made through DTC's settlement area is being added,\4\ and detailed
narrative describing custody services is being removed from the
Deposits Service Guide since such narrative is contained in the Custody
Service Guide.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The language explains that ``if the effective date of the
corporate action is three years or less, allocation occurs one day
after the deposit. If the effective date is over three years,
allocation of new stock entitlement will not occur until DTC has
received the security from the agent. Allocations for cash will not
occur on any reorg deposit until DTC receives the funds from the
agent, regardless of the effective date of the corporate action.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    DTC believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 17A of the Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to DTC because it will facilitate the prompt and
accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions by
enhancing the utilization of DTC's existing services.

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

    DTC does not believe that the proposed rule change will have any
impact or impose any burden on competition.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    DTC has not solicited or received written comments relating to the
proposed rule change. DTC will notify the Commission of any written
comments it receives.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \5\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(4) \6\ thereunder
because it effects a change in an existing service of a registered
clearing agency that does not adversely affect the safeguarding of
securities and funds in the custody or control of the clearing agency
or for which it is responsible and does not significantly affect the
respective rights or obligations of the clearing agency or persons
using the service. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the
proposed rule change, the Commission may summarily abrogate such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

considered as the guidance was finalized. Editorial changes were made
to improve clarity. The guidance announced in this notice finalizes the
draft guidance dated August 1, 2014.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This level 1 guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents
the current thinking of FDA on Cell-Based Products for Animal Use. It

[Docket No. CP19-78-000]

PennEast Pipeline Company, LLC; Notice of Application for
Amendment

    Take notice that on February 1, 2019 PennEast Pipeline Company,
LLC, One Meridian Boulevard, Suite 2C01, Wyomissing, PA 19610, filed an
application under section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part
157 of the Commission's regulations to amend the certificate of public
convenience and necessity and related authorizations issued by the
Commission on January 19, 2018 in Docket No. CP15-558-000 (January 19
Order).\1\ In this application, PennEast has proposed a series of
changes to the Project route approved as conditioned in the Certificate
Order, all as more fully set forth in the application which is on file
with the Commission and open to public inspection.

    \1\ PennEast Pipeline Company, LLC, 162 FERC ] 61,053 (2018),
order on reh'g 164 FERC ] 16,098 (2018).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    PennEast states that the proposed changes to the Project route
address agency and landowner requests, and reduce environmental and
landowner impacts. The proposed modifications include realignments and
an adjustment in Luzerne, Carbon, Monroe, and Northampton Counties, in
Pennsylvania. Among other route changes, PennEast proposes a
realignment of the project route to implement an alternate crossing of
the Appalachian Trail to be collocated with an existing easement. The
other modifications include two (2) minor route realignments and one
(1) workspace adjustment. Except for the realignment of the Appalachian
Trail crossing, PennEast states that all other realignments and
adjustment are within 0.25 mile of the existing Project route approved
in the January 19 Order.

    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this Project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceeding for this project should file with
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene in accordance with the
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18
CFR 385.214, 385.211 (2016), by the comment date below. A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission, and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit filings made with the Commission by mail, hand delivery, or
internet, in accordance with Rule 2001 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure, id. 385.2001. A copy must be served on every
other party in the proceeding. Only parties to the proceeding can ask
for court review of Commission orders in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene to have comments
considered. The second way to participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and two
copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. The
Commission will consider these comments in determining the appropriate
action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will not serve to
make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's rules
require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    Protests and interventions may be filed electronically via the
internet in lieu of paper; see 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the
instructions on the Commission's website under the ``e-filing'' link.
The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
    As of the February 27, 2018 date of the Commission's order in
Docket No. CP16-4-001, the Commission will apply its revised practice
concerning out-of-time motions to intervene in any new Natural Gas Act
section 3 or section 7 proceeding.\2\ Persons desiring to become a
party to a certificate proceeding are to intervene in a timely manner.
If seeking to intervene out-of-time, the movant is required to ``show
good cause why the time limitation should be waived,'' and should
provide justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule
214(d)(1) of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.\3\

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

    If the Commission decides to set the application for a formal
hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the Commission will issue
another notice describing that process. At the end of the Commission's
review process, a final Commission order approving or denying the
requested authorizations will be issued.

Amendments to National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants for Area Sources: Plating and Polishing

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: On June 12, 2008, EPA issued national emission standards for
control of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) for the plating and polishing
area source category under section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). In
today's action, EPA is proposing to amend the national emission
standards for control of hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for the
plating and polishing area source category published on June 12, 2008.
The amendments to the area source standards for plating and polishing
area sources would clarify that the emission control requirements of
the plating and polishing area source NESHAP do not

apply to any bench-scale activities. Also, the amendments include
several technical corrections and clarifications that do not make
significant changes in the rule's requirements. In the ``Rules and
Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, we are amending the
area source standards for plating and polishing area sources as a
direct final rule without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no
adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

DATES: Written comments must be received by July 20, 2011. If EPA
receives adverse comment, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take
effect.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OAR-2005-0084, by one of the following methods:
     http://www.regulations.gov: Follow the on-line
instructions for submitting comments.

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-
2005-0084. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included
in the public docket without change and may be made available online at
http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
confidential business information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The www.regulations.gov Web site is an
``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD-ROM you submit. 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. Electronic files should avoid
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the
www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some
information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such
as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only in hard copy.

I. Why is EPA issuing this proposed rule?

    This document proposes to take action on amendments to the national
emission standards for plating and polishing operations that are area
sources (40 CFR part 63, subpart WWWWWW). We have published a direct
final rule amending the area source standards for plating and polishing
operations in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal
Register because we view this as a noncontroversial action and
anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for this
action in the preamble to the direct final rule.
    If we receive no adverse comment by July 20, 2011, we will not take
further action on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we
will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take effect. We
would address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on
this proposed rule.
    We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
For further information, please see the information provided in the
ADDRESSES section of this document.

II. Does this action apply to me?

proposed rule include:

    This table is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a
guide for readers regarding entities likely to be affected by this
proposed action. To determine whether your facility would be regulated
by this proposed action, you should examine the applicability criteria
in 40 CFR 63.11475 of subpart WWWWWW (NESHAP: Area Source Standards for
Plating and Polishing Operations). If you have any questions regarding
the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult either
the air permit authority for the entity or your EPA regional
representative as listed in Sec.  63.13 of the General Provisions to
part 63 (40 CFR part 63, subpart A).

III. Where can I get a copy of this document?

    In addition to being available in the docket, an electronic copy of
this proposed action will also be available on the Worldwide Web (WWW)
through the Technology Transfer Network (TTN). Following signature, a
copy of this proposed action will be posted on the TTN's policy and
guidance page for newly proposed or promulgated rules at the following
address: http://www.epa.gov/ttn/oarpg/. The TTN provides information
and technology exchange in various areas of air pollution control.

IV. Why are we amending this rule?

    On July 1, 2008 (73 FR 37741), we issued the NESHAP for Area
Sources: Plating and Polishing (40 CFR part 63, subpart WWWWWW). The
final rule establishes air emission control requirements for new and
existing facilities that are area sources of hazardous air pollutants.
The final standards establish emission standards in the form of
management practices for new and existing tanks, thermal spraying
equipment, and dry mechanical polishing equipment in certain plating
and polishing processes. These final emission standards reflect EPA's
determination regarding the generally achievable control technology
(GACT) and management practices for the area source category.
    In the time period since promulgation, it has come to our attention
that certain aspects of the rule as promulgated have led to
misinterpretations, inconsistencies, and confusion regarding the
applicability of the rule. Therefore, we are amending and correcting
parts of the rule to address these issues.

V. What are the changes to the area source NESHAP for plating and
polishing operations?

    We are amending this rule to clarify and correct inconsistencies
and inadequacies of the rule language that have come to our attention
since promulgation. For a detailed description of the proposed
amendments, see the information provided in the direct final rule
published in the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal
Register.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13565: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    This action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under the
terms of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and is
therefore not subject to review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
(76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011).

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    This action does not impose any new information collection burden.
These proposed amendments clarify that the emission control
requirements of the plating and polishing area source rule do not apply
to bench-scale activities. Also, several technical corrections and
clarifications that do not make material changes in the rule's
requirements have been made to the rule text. No new burden is
associated with these requirements because the burden was included in
the approved information collection request (ICR) for the existing
rule. However, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has previously
approved the information collection requirements contained in the
existing regulations (40 CFR part 63 subpart WWWWWW) under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. and
has assigned OMB control number control number 2060-0623. The OMB
control numbers for EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR
part 9.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act generally requires an agency to
prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice
and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure
Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule
would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. Small entities include small businesses,

small not-for-profit enterprises, and small governmental jurisdictions.
    For the purposes of assessing the impacts of this proposed rule on
small entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business that
meets the Small Business Administration size standards for small
businesses at 13 CFR 121.201 (whose parent company has fewer than 500
employees for NAICS code 332813); (2) a small governmental jurisdiction
that is a government of a city, county, town, school district, or
special district with a population of less than 50,000; and (3) a small
organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise which is
independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field.
    After considering the economic impacts of this proposed rule on
small entities, I certify that this action will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. We have
determined that the small entities in this area source category will
not incur any adverse impacts because this action makes only technical
corrections and clarifications that increase flexibility and does not
create any new requirements or burdens. No costs are associated with
these amendments to the NESHAP.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    This action contains no Federal mandates under the provisions of
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), 2 U.S.C.
1531-1538 for State, local, or tribal governments or the private
sector. The action imposes no enforceable duty on any State, local or
tribal governments or the private sector. The term ``enforceable duty''
does not include duties and conditions in voluntary Federal contracts
for goods and services. Thus, this action is not subject to the
requirements of sections 202 or 205 of the UMRA.
    This action is also not subject to the requirements of section 203
of UMRA because it contains no regulatory requirements that might
significantly or uniquely affect small governments. The technical
corrections and clarifications made through this action contain no
requirements that apply to such governments, impose no obligations upon
them, and will not result in any expenditures by them or any
disproportionate impacts on them.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This proposed rule does not have federalism implications. It will
not have substantial direct effects 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,
as specified in Executive Order 13132. The proposed rule makes certain
technical corrections and clarifications to the NESHAP for plating and
polishing area sources. These proposed corrections and clarifications
do not impose requirements on State and local governments. Thus,
Executive Order 13132 does not apply to the proposed rule.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments

    This proposed action does not have tribal implications, as
specified in Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 6, 2000).
This proposed rule makes certain technical corrections and
clarifications to the NESHAP for plating and polishing area sources.
These proposed corrections and clarifications do not impose
requirements on tribal governments. They also have no direct effects on
tribal governments, 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. Thus, Executive Order
13175 does not apply to this action.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health and Safety Risks

    EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997)
as applying to those regulatory actions that concern health or safety
risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of the
Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This
action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it makes
technical corrections and clarifications to the area source NESHAP for
plating and polishing area sources which is based solely on technology
performance.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

    This proposed action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR
28355, May 22, 2001) because it is not a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer Advancement Act

    Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act (NTTAA) of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-113, section 12(d), 15 U.S.C. 272
note) directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS) in its
regulatory activities, unless to do so would be inconsistent with
applicable law or otherwise impractical. The VCS are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling
procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by
VCS bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through the
Office of Management and Budget, explanations when the Agency does not
use available and applicable VCS.
    This proposed rule does not involve technical standards. Therefore,
EPA did not consider the use of any VCS.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

    Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes
Federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs Federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
    EPA has determined that this proposed rule will not have
disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income populations because it does not
affect the level of protection provided to human health or the
environment. The technical corrections and clarifications in this
proposed rule do not change the level of control required by the
NESHAP.
