SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA has determined, in accordance with 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) and 553(d)(3), that notice and opportunity for
prior public comment hereon are unnecessary because the substance of
these special conditions has been subject to the public comment process
in several prior instances with no substantive comments received. The
FAA therefore finds that good cause exists for making these special
conditions effective upon issuance.

Background

    On July 9, 2012, Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. applied for a type
certificate for their new PC-24 airplane. The PC-24 is an aluminum
pressurized low-wing business jet with a T-tail configuration and
retractable undercarriage designed to meet the commuter category
requirements of part 23. Two Williams International FJ44-4A Turbofan
engines rated at 3,400 pounds (lbs.) of take-off thrust, situated in
nacelles on each side of the rear fuselage power the PC-24. The PC-24
will have a Maximum Take-off Weight (MTOW) of 17,200 pounds (7,802
kilograms). It has a maximum seating capacity of up to ten passengers
and one pilot or two pilots. The airplane will be certificated for day
and night Visual Flight Rules, Instrument Flight Rules, and flight into
known icing.
    The PC-24 is equipped with a pressure refuel/defuel system. The
applicable regulations do not include requirements for the pressure-
defueling portion of the system.

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of 14 CFR 21.17, Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. must
show that the PC-24 meets the applicable provisions of 14 CFR part 23,
as amended by amendments 23-1 through 23-62 thereto.
    If the Administrator finds that the applicable airworthiness
regulations (i.e., 14 CFR part 23) do not contain adequate or
appropriate safety standards for the PC-24 because of a novel or
unusual design feature, special conditions are prescribed under the
provisions of Sec.  21.16.
    In addition to the applicable airworthiness regulations and special
conditions, the PC-24 must comply with the fuel vent and exhaust
emission requirements of 14 CFR part 34, the noise certification
requirements of 14 CFR part 36, and the FAA must issue a finding of
regulatory adequacy pursuant to section 611 of Public Law 92-574, the
``Noise Control Act of 1972.''
    The FAA issues special conditions, as defined in Sec.  11.19, under
Sec.  11.38 and they become part of the type certification basis under
Sec.  21.17(a)(2).
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the model for which
they are issued. Should the type certificate for that model be amended
later to include any other model that incorporates the same novel or
unusual design feature, the FAA would apply these special conditions to
the other models under Sec.  21.101.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The PC-24 will incorporate the following novel or unusual design
features:

Pressure Fueling System with Defuel Capability

Discussion

    As discussed in the ``Background'' section, the PC-24 will
incorporate a pressure refuel/defuel system. The defueling capability
is considered a novel design for this type of airplane. The applicable
airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety
standards for this design feature. Mandating additional requirements by
adopting 14 CFR 25.979(e)--which is the part 25 pressure defuel
requirement--mitigates the concern associated with installation of a
pressure defueling system.

Applicability

    As discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to the
PC-24. Should Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. apply at a later date for a change
to the type certificate to include another model on the same type
certificate incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, the
FAA would apply these special conditions to that model as well.

Conclusion

    This action affects only certain novel or unusual design features
on one model of airplanes. It is not a rule of general applicability
and it affects only the applicant who applied to the FAA for approval
of these features on the airplane.
    The substance of these special conditions has been subjected to the
notice and comments period in several prior instances--identified
above--and has been derived without substantive change from those
previously issued. It is unlikely that prior public comment would
result in a significant change from the substance contained herein.
Therefore, notice and opportunity for prior public comments hereon are
unnecessary and the FAA finds good cause, in accordance with 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B) and 553(d)(3), making these special conditions effective
upon issuance. The FAA is requesting comments to allow interested
persons to submit views that may not have been submitted in response to
the prior opportunities for comment described above.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 23

    Aircraft, Aviation safety, Signs and symbols.

1. Overview of the OSHA Office of Training and Education (OTE)

    OTE, located in Arlington Heights, Illinois, supports the agency's
mission and performance goals of securing safe and healthful workplaces
and increasing workers' voice in the workplace through the development
and delivery of training courses and educational programs. The Office
has three distinct functional areas: The OSHA Training Institute (OTI),
the Division of Training Programs and Administration, and the Division
of Training Educational Development (DTEP). The OTI provides training
for Federal and state compliance officers and State consultants. The
Division of Training Programs and Administration administers three
distinct external training programs: The OSHA Training Institute (OTI)
Education Center Program, the Outreach Training Program, and the Susan
Harwood Training Grants Program. DTEP develops training and educational
materials that support OTI and OTI Education Center courses and the
agency's compliance assistance initiatives.

2. Overview of the OSHA Training Institute (OTI)

    The OTI is OSHA's primary training provider for Federal and state
compliance officers and state consultation program staff. OTI offers
over 50 unique course offerings on an annual basis. Training includes
job hazard recognition as well as OSHA standards, policies, and
procedures for persons responsible for enforcing or directly supporting
the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The OTI does not
provide training for private and public sector personnel.

3. Overview of OTI Education Center Program

    The OTI Education Centers are a national network of non-profit
organizations authorized by OSHA to deliver occupational safety and
health training for the advancement of safe and healthful workplaces
for private and public sector workers, supervisors, and employers on
behalf of OSHA. The OTI Education Center Program was initiated in 1992
when OSHA began partnering with other training and educational
institutions to conduct OSHA courses. The OTI Education Center Program
supports OSHA's training and education mission through a variety of
occupational safety and health programs.
    OTI Education Center courses include OSHA standards and Outreach
Training Program trainer and update courses. The OTI Education Centers
offer more than 50 courses on various safety and health topics,
including recordkeeping, machine guarding, confined space, electrical
standards, ergonomics, safety and health management, and fall
protection. Information regarding the OTI Education Center Program
background, including a complete list of current OTI Education Centers,
OSHA numbered course offerings, and course descriptions can be found on
the OSHA website at: https://www.osha.gov/otiec.
    OTI Education Centers are selected through a national competitive
process and receive no funding from OSHA; they support their OSHA
training through their normal tuition and fee structures. OTI Education
Centers are located in all OSHA Regions and work closely with OSHA
Regional and Area offices to meet the needs of their regional
constituencies. OTI Education Centers are encouraged to conduct courses
at host training organizations in addition to their own facilities. OTI
Education Centers are also integral to OSHA's process for authorizing

Outreach trainers, processing Outreach trainer card requests, and
conducting Outreach trainer monitoring activities for the OSHA Outreach
Training Program.

4. Overview of the OSHA Outreach Training Program

    OSHA established the Outreach Training Program (OTP)to provide an
overview of OSHA and to disseminate basic occupational safety and
health workplace hazard information to workers using independent OSHA
authorized trainers. OSHA administers the OTP including the
establishment of program requirements and providing program review and
oversight. Courses are intended to provide information on worker rights
and employer responsibilities and to focus on work-related hazards. OTP
courses do not focus on or teach OSHA standards. Workers who complete
the construction industry, general industry, maritime industry, or
disaster site worker Outreach courses receive OSHA student course
completion cards from the authorized trainer who conducted the
training. OSHA Outreach trainers are authorized by OSHA exclusively
through the OTI Education Centers. OTI Education Centers are
responsible for administering the Outreach Training Program, including
issuing course completion cards to authorized Outreach trainers and
conducting monitoring activity such as record audits and training
observations.
    The Outreach Training Program is a voluntary program; however some
cities and states have enacted laws mandating the training. Some
employers, unions, organizations, or other jurisdictions may also
require this training. OSHA recommends Outreach Training Program
courses as an introduction to occupational safety and health hazard
recognition for workers. Please note that Outreach Training Program
courses do not meet specific training requirements contained in OSHA
standards. OSHA publishes Outreach Training Program requirements and
procedures to provide instructions and information to Outreach
trainers. Items addressed in the requirements and procedures include
course topic requirements, minimum contact hours for course topics,
advertising restrictions, records retention, and reporting
requirements. OSHA Outreach Training Program requirements and
procedures can be accessed at: https://www.osha.gov/training/outreach.

    Applicants may join with one or more other non-profit organizations
in their region to apply as a consortium. A training or education
institution may elect to apply for this program in partnership with a
safety and health organization that is not primarily a training
organization. For example, a university could enter into an agreement
with a labor union that provides for the use of university classrooms
and faculty supplemented by union safety and health professionals. All
consortium partners must be physically located in the same OSHA region.
Partners must designate a lead organization that will be responsible
for program reporting

and Outreach Training Program administration including Outreach card
distribution. OTI Education Centers may request to change the lead
organization within a consortium in writing. OTE will only consider
changes to the lead organization when all consortium members support
the change.

I. Funding Provisions

    OSHA provides no funding to OTI Education Centers. OTI Education
Centers are expected to support their training through their normal
tuition and fee structures.

J. Cooperative Agreement Duration

    Selected applicants will sign five-year non-financial cooperative
agreements with OSHA. Such an agreement may be renewed at the
government's sole discretion without the additional competition
otherwise required by this notice for one additional five-year period,
provided that: (1) OSHA found the OTI Education Center's performance
during the cooperative agreement to be satisfactory; (2) the OTI
Education Center has not altered its existing membership of constituent
organizations (i.e., the member organizations that comprise its
consortium); and (3) the OTI Education Center has not had any
significant findings of program non-compliance or served any period of
probation or suspension.
    The agency reserves the right to revoke the authorization of an OTI
Education Center. Either party may terminate the cooperative agreement
with advance written notice, provided both parties continue to meet all
obligations of the agreement for the duration of the advance notice
period.

K. Pre-Proposal Conference

    A pre-proposal conference will be held to provide potential
applicants with information about the OTI Education Center Program. The
conference will also review OSHA expectations for OTI Education
Centers, courses and methods of instruction, and administrative and
program requirements for OTI Education Centers and the OSHA Outreach
Training Program. Attendance at the pre-proposal conference is not
mandatory, but applicants are strongly encouraged to attend.

staff. The technical panels will review applications based on criteria
listed in this notice to determine which applicants best meet the
stated requirements. As part of the evaluation and selection process,
OSHA may request additional information from applicants. This may
include written requests for clarification, phone or in-person
interviews, access to existing programs, and on-site visits of
applicant facilities. OSHA will attempt to select qualified applicants
who have the ability to provide training throughout their region based
on program needs. The panels' recommendations to the Assistant
Secretary are advisory in nature. The final decision will be made by
the Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health.

O. Notification of Selection

Paperwork Reduction Act, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and no
persons are required to respond to, a collection of information unless
such collection displays a valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number. The application provides to OSHA basic information
about the applicant. Information will be used to evaluate the
qualifications of the applicants, including their ability to serve the
regional population; determine ability to conduct OSHA courses for
private sector personnel and Federal personnel from agencies other than
OSHA; and to evaluate the applicant's competence to provide the
proposed training (including the qualifications of the personnel to
manage and implement the training). OSHA estimates employer burden for
the completion of this application is sixty hours per application.
These estimates include the time for reviewing instructions, searching
existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and
completing and reviewing the collection of information.
    The application was previously reviewed and approved for use by OMB
under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L.
104-13). The assigned OMB control number is 1218-0262
