                                       (ENTER PARTNER NAME HERE)

 Through this agreement,   	("ENERGY STAR Partner") joins in partnership with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) in one or more areas. ENERGY STAR Partner recognizes ENERGY STAR as a broad partnership designed to promote buildings, products, homes, and industrial facilities that use less energy while providing the same or better performance than conventional designs. ENERGY STAR Partner wishes to use the ENERGY STAR name and/or mark in association with qualified products or homes. ENERGY STAR Partner agrees to use the partnership and the ENERGY STAR  mark to promote energy efficiency as an easy and desirable option for organizations and consumers to prevent pollution, protect the global environment, and save on energy bills. ENERGY STAR Partner agrees that it is important to build and maintain the meaning of the ENERGY STAR mark as a trustworthy symbol that makes it easy to make a change for the better.

 Partner Commitments  ENERGY STAR Partner is committed to taking action in the area(s) indicated on the ENERGY STAR Participation Form. For the designated program area(s), ENERGY STAR Partner agrees to fulfill all requirements as outlined in the following supporting documents:        	ENERGY STAR Program Requirements, defining requirements for being recognized as a partner in each program area, such as manufacturing, selling, or promoting ENERGY STAR qualified products to consumers or organizations. Specific requirements include identifying a responsible party for each area of participation and updating EPA/DOE on the efforts undertaken through the partnership. Where applicable, these include ENERGY STAR eligibility criteria defining the energy and other performance specifications that must be met for use of the ENERGY STAR mark on and/or in association with buildings, homes, and products; and        	ENERGY STAR Identity Guidelines, describing how the ENERGY STAR name and mark may be used. Partner will adhere to these guidelines and ensure that its authorized representatives, such as advertising agencies, dealers, and distributors, are also in compliance.

 EPA/DOE will undertake a variety of efforts to build awareness of the ENERGY STAR name and mark, maintain the credibility of the ENERGY STAR name and mark, and promote the benefits of energy-efficient homes, buildings, products, services, and industrial facilities. EPA/DOE will strive to:        	increase awareness of the ENERGY STAR name and mark across the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors by distributing key messages on the benefits of ENERGY STAR qualified buildings, homes, and products;        	make current versions of the ENERGY STAR Identity Guidelines and ENERGY STAR Program Requirements easily accessible through the Internet and other means;        	maintain a Web site where ENERGY STAR Partner can furnish information on its program efforts and responsible key contacts as outlined in the ENERGY STAR Program Requirements; and        	provide ENERGY STAR Partner with public recognition through the Internet and other mechanisms for its efforts in the ENERGY STAR Partnership and its role in protecting the environment.

 Disclaimers  Partner will not construe, claim, or imply that its participation in the ENERGY STAR program constitutes federal government approval, acceptance, or endorsement of anything other than Partner's commitment to the program. Partner understands its participation in the ENERGY STAR program does not constitute federal government endorsement of Partner or its buildings, homes, products, services, or industrial facilities. Partner understands that the activities it undertakes in connection with the ENERGY STAR program are voluntary and not intended to provide services to the federal government. As such, Partner will not submit a claim for compensation to any federal agency.

 Dispute Resolution  Partner and EPA/DOE will assume good faith as a general principle for resolving conflicts under the ENERGY STAR program. Both parties will endeavor to resolve all matters informally, so as to preserve maximum public confidence in ENERGY STAR.  In the event informal channels do not produce a mutually agreeable resolution to a matter in dispute, either party to this agreement shall notify the other in writing as to the nature of the dispute, the specific corrective action sought, and their intent to terminate the Partnership Agreement, either as a whole or in part, unless specific corrective actions sought are undertaken:        	within 20 days of receiving formal notification from EPA/DOE indicating intent to terminate the Partnership Agreement, either as a whole or in part, Partner will reply, agreeing to either (1) undertake in a timely and effective manner the corrective actions sought by EPA/DOE, or (2) terminate the Partnership Agreement, either as a whole or in part;        	within 20 days of receiving formal notification from Partner indicating its intent to terminate the Partnership Agreement, either as a whole or in part, EPA/DOE will reply, either (1) agreeing to undertake in a timely and effective manner the corrective actions sought by Partner, or (2) explaining why such corrective actions cannot be undertaken;        	if Partner fails to respond within 20 days of receiving formal notification of EPA/DOE's intent to terminate the Partnership Agreement, either as a whole or in part, or if Partner responds but does not agree to undertake corrective actions sought by EPA/DOE, or if Partner agrees but does not initiate the corrective actions in a timely manner, then this agreement is terminated, either as a whole or in part.

 Entry into Force and Duration of Agreement  Both parties concur that this agreement and the terms outlined in the supporting documents will become effective when signed by both parties. This agreement may be updated at any time to add new areas for which ENERGY STAR Partner wants to be recognized as a partner. Both parties concur that this agreement is wholly voluntary and may be terminated by either party at any time, and for any reason, with no penalty. Failure to comply with this Partnership Agreement, applicable Program Requirements, and Identity Guidelines can result in termination of this agreement and authorization to use the ENERGY STAR mark. EPA/DOE will actively pursue actions for resolving issues of noncompliance.

 The undersigned hereby execute this Partnership Agreement on behalf of their party. The signatories of this agreement affirm that they have the authority to execute this agreement on behalf of ENERGY STAR Partner and EPA/DOE.

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG
(Type Certificate Previously Held by Rolls-Royce Deutschland GmbH,
Formerly BMW Rolls-Royce GmbH) Turbofan Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) BR700-710A2-20 model
turbofan engines. This AD was prompted by flight data obtained from
airplanes equipped with certain Rockwell Collins avionics and auto-
throttle systems that demonstrated significant oscillation of the
engine rotor revolution speed during flight. This AD requires initial
and repetitive recalculation of the consumed and remaining service life
of certain life-limited parts (LLPs). This AD also

requires removal of an LLP prior to its approved life limit or within
90 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: This AD is effective December 13, 2021.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of December 13,
2021.

ADDRESSES: For service information identified in this final rule,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain RRD BR700-
710A2-20 model turbofan engines. The NPRM published in the Federal
Register on April 2, 2021 (86 FR 17326). The NPRM was prompted by
flight data obtained from airplanes equipped with certain Rockwell
Collins avionics and auto-throttle systems that demonstrated
significant oscillation of the engine rotor revolution speed during
flight. In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to require initial and repetitive
recalculation of the consumed and remaining service life of certain
LLPs. The NPRM also proposed to require removal of an LLP prior to its
approved life limit or within 90 days after the effective date of this
AD, whichever occurs later. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the
unsafe condition on these products.
    The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the
Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has
issued EASA AD 2018-0268, dated December 11, 2018 and corrected on
February 20, 2019 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to address
the unsafe condition on these products. The MCAI states:

    Flight data obtained from aeroplanes equipped with certain
Rockwell Collins avionics and auto-throttle system demonstrated
significant oscillation of the engine rotor revolution speed during
cruise. Analysis indicates that this affects the service life of the
affected LLP.
    This condition, if not corrected, may lead to failure of an
affected LLP, possibly resulting in release of high-energy debris,
with consequent damage to, and/or reduced control of, the aeroplane.
To address this potentially unsafe condition, RRD issued the NMSB,
providing instructions to recalculate the consumed and remaining
service life of the affected LLP.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
repetitive recalculation of the service life (consumed and
remaining) of each affected LLP and, depending on the results,
replacement of each affected LLP before exceeding the life limit,
taking the re-calculated life consumption into account.

    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating
Docket No. FAA-2021-0257.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received comments from one commenter, NetJets Aviation
(NJA). The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and the
FAA's response to each comment.

Request To Confirm Compliance With Previous Action

    NJA asked if they are in compliance with this AD if they performed
the required actions using Bombardier Service Bulletin (SB) 700-34-5021
or Bombardier SB 700-34-6021, revisions earlier than Revision 3, dated
January 5, 2018, as applicable. NJA reasoned that paragraph (c),
Applicability, of the proposed AD references only Revision 3 of
Bombardier SB 700-34-5021 and Bombardier SB 700-34-6021 (Bombardier
SBs). NJA states that it performed the required actions using Revision
2 of the Bombardier SBs before the effective date of this AD. NJA also
referenced language from Revision 3 of the Bombardier SBs that
indicates no further action is necessary if operators performed the
action using earlier revisions of the Bombardier SBs.
    The FAA notes that NJA would be in compliance with the required
actions of this AD if they performed those actions using the earlier
versions of the Bombardier SBs to meet the requirements of this AD. The
FAA updated paragraph (h), Credit for Previous Actions, of this AD to
give credit for using earlier revisions of the Bombardier SBs if the
actions were performed before the effective date of this AD.

Request To Confirm Compliance for Simultaneous Actions

    NJA asked if they would be in compliance with the required actions
of this AD, based on paragraph (h), Credit for Previous Actions, if
they complied with the Bombardier SBs and RRD Alert Non-Modification
Service Bulletin SB-BR700-72-A900584, Revision 2, dated November 22,
2017 (the NMSB), at the same time before the fleet accumulated 500
flight cycles. NJA indicated that the Accomplishment Instructions,
paragraphs 3.A.(1) and (2), of the NMSB apply only to the low-pressure
compressor (LPC) disk whereas this AD applies to all LLPs.
    The FAA notes that NJA would be in compliance with the replacement
of the LPC disk required by paragraph (g)(3) of this AD if they
performed the action before the effective date of this AD. Paragraph
(f) of this AD mandates compliance with this AD within the compliance
times specified, unless already done.

Update to Service Information

    The FAA determined the need to incorporate the latest service
information in this AD. The FAA revised the reference to Bombardier SB
700-34-5021 in paragraph (c) of this AD from Revision 03, dated January
5, 2018, to Revision 04, dated February 11, 2021, or earlier revision,
and Bombardier SB 700-34-6021 in paragraph (c) of this AD from Revision
03, dated January 5, 2018, to Revision 04, dated February 11, 2021, or
earlier revision. This change does not change the number of affected
engines that the FAA estimated in the NPRM and imposes no additional
burden on operators who are required to comply with this AD.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered any comments
received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products. Except for minor editorial changes, and
any other changes described previously, this AD is adopted as proposed
in the NPRM. None of the changes will increase the economic burden on
any operator.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed RRD Alert Non-Modification Service Bulletin SB-
BR700-72-A900584, Revision 2, dated November 22, 2017. The NMSB
describes procedures for amending flight cycle counting requirements
for affected LLPs on RRD BR700-710A2-20 model turbofan engines. This
service information is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in ADDRESSES.

Other Related Service Information

    The FAA reviewed Bombardier SB 700-34-5021, Revision 04, dated
February 11, 2021, and Bombardier SB 700-34-6021, Revision 04, dated
February 11, 2021. These SBs describe procedures for the implementation
of the Global Vision Flight Deck Version 5 (V5) software load on
Bombardier Inc. Model BD-700-1A11 and BD-700-1A10 airplanes,
respectively.

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

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will 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 that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

(EPCRA), certain facilities that manufacture, process, or otherwise use
specified toxic chemicals in amounts above reporting threshold levels
must submit annually to EPA and to designated State or Tribal officials
toxic chemical release forms containing information specified by EPA.
In addition, pursuant to section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act
(PPA), facilities reporting under section 313 of EPCRA must also report
pollution prevention and waste management data, including recycling
information, for such chemicals. EPA compiles and stores these reports
in a publicly accessible database known as the Toxics Release Inventory
(TRI).
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Facilities that submit annual
reports under section 313 of EPCRA and section 6607 of PPA.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (EPCRA Section 313).
    Estimated number of respondents: 21,856.
    Frequency of response: Annual.
    Total estimated burden: 3,597,275 hours (per year). Burden is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $199,217,089 (per year), includes $0 in
annualized capital investment or maintenance and operational costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an increase of 41,277 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in
the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase reflects a slight
increase in the number of facilities reporting to TRI.

49 CFR Part 391

[Docket No. FMCSA-1997-2210]
RIN 2126-AB39

Medical Certification Requirements as Part of the Commercial
Driver's License (CDL); Extension of Certificate Retention Requirements

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FMCSA amends its regulations to keep in effect until
January 30, 2014, the requirement that interstate drivers subject to
the commercial driver's license (CDL) regulations and the Federal
physical qualification requirements must retain paper copies of their
medical examiner's certificate. Interstate motor carriers are also
required to retain copies of their drivers' medical certificates in
their driver qualification files. This action is being taken to ensure
the medical qualification of CDL holders until all States are able to
post the medical self-certification and medical examiner's certificate
data on the Commercial Driver's License Information System (CDLIS)
driver record. This rule does not, however, extend the compliance dates
for States to collect and to post to the CDLIS driver record data from
a CDL holder's medical self-certification and medical examiner's
certificate.

DATES: This rule is effective December 15, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Legal Basis

Medical Certification Requirements as Part of the CDL

    The legal basis of the final rule titled ``Medical Certification
Requirements as Part of the Commercial Driver's License,'' published on
December 1, 2008, (2008 final rule) (73 FR 73096-73097), is also
applicable to this rule.

Background

    On December 1, 2008, FMCSA published a final rule (73 FR 73096)
adopting regulations to implement section 215 of the Motor Carrier
Safety Improvement Act of 1999 (MCSIA) (Pub. L. 106-159, 113 Stat.
1767, Dec. 9, 1999). Section 215 directed initiation of a rule to
provide for a Federal medical qualification certificate to be made a
part of commercial driver's licenses. The 2008 final rule requires any
CDL holder subject to the physical qualification requirements of the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) to provide a current
original or copy of his or her medical examiner's certificate to the
issuing State Driver Licensing Agency (SDLA). The final rule requires
the SDLA to post in the CDLIS driver record the self-certification that
CDL holders are required to make regarding applicability of the Federal
physical qualification requirements and, for drivers subject to those
requirements, the medical certification information specified in the
regulations. The final

rule also implemented other conforming requirements for both SDLAs and
employers (73 FR 73096-73128). These requirements, for the most part,
have a compliance date of January 30, 2012. On May 21, 2010, the Agency
published several technical amendments to the 2008 final rule to make
certain corrections and to address certain petitions for
reconsideration of that final rule (75 FR 28499-28502).
    Several SDLAs have recently advised the Agency that they may not
have the capability by January 30, 2012, to receive the required
medical certification and medical examiner's certificate information
provided by a non-excepted, interstate CDL holder, and then manually
post it to the CDLIS driver record. An SDLA's inability to receive and
post the required material would render both the CDL holder and his or
her employer unable to demonstrate or verify, respectively, that the
driver is medically certified in compliance with the FMCSRs.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

    On June 14, 2011, FMCSA published a notice (76 FR 34635) proposing
to maintain in effect, until January 30, 2014, the requirement for an
interstate CDL holder subject to the Federal physical qualification
standards to carry a paper copy of his or her medical examiner's
certificate. Until January 30, 2014, a CDL holder would continue to
carry on his or her person the medical examiner's certificate specified
at Sec.  391.43(h), or a copy, as valid proof of medical certification.
Also, an interstate motor carrier that employs CDL holders would
continue to obtain and file a copy of the CDL holder's medical
examiner's certificate in its driver qualification files, as specified
at Sec.  391.51(b)(7)(i), if the motor carrier is unable to obtain that
information from the SDLA issuing the CDL due to the SDLA's inability
to post the medical certificate data. In this way, the Agency could
ensure the medical qualification of CDL holders until all States are
able to post the medical self-certification and medical examiner's
certificate data on the CDLIS driver record.
    The FMCSA did not propose to change the compliance dates it
established in the 2008 final rule for SDLAs. SDLAs are still expected
to meet the January 30, 2012, date specified in 49 CFR 383.73 to start
collecting information from CDL applicants and posting and retaining
this data on the CDLIS driver record. In addition, SDLAs are expected
to collect and post the same data from all existing CDL holders by the
January 30, 2014, compliance date. The Agency believes that extending
the requirement that both interstate CDL holders and motor carriers
retain the copy of the medical examiner's certificate for 2 years,
however, will provide sufficient overlap with the requirement that all
SDLAs obtain the medical status and medical examiner's certificate
information and post it on the driver's CDLIS driver record.

Response to Comments

    Two State agencies, the Michigan Department of State and the
Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), submitted comments to
the June 14, 2011, proposal. Both agencies support the proposal to
extend certain compliance dates for interstate CDL drivers and the
motor carriers that employ them. But the Michigan Department of State
urged the Agency to also extend, until January 2014, the compliance
dates established for States in the 2008 final rule.
    The MoDOT noted that the Agency was silent regarding whether the
deferred implementation date also applies to intrastate drivers and the
intrastate employers. According to this commenter,

    This omission creates uncertainty and ambiguity regarding the
intended scope and meaning of these requirements. When the States
attempt to enforce these safety regulations against intrastate
drivers and motor carriers, this kind of uncertainty and ambiguity
may be susceptible to exploitation by alleged offenders or their
defense attorneys, and could potentially frustrate or even to [sic]
thwart the State's ability to prosecute apparent violations of these
requirements by intrastate drivers and motor carriers.

    FMCSA Response: The FMCSA acknowledges Michigan's concerns.
However, the Agency believes it is necessary for the States to continue
working towards the January 2012 deadline. This is especially the case
given that Michigan provided no justification in its comment for this
request. As provided in 49 CFR 384.301(d), Michigan, like all the other
States issuing CDLs, will have had 3 years (from the effective date of
the final rule on January 30, 2009) to comply, and most States will be
in compliance. If Michigan or any other State is unable to achieve
substantial compliance with the requirements of 49 CFR 384.225, as
adopted in December 2008, then the compliance review standards and
procedures of 49 CFR part 384, subparts C and D will be implemented.
The FMCSA will continue to work with the States by providing technical
assistance, as resources permit, in achieving compliance.
    Regarding MoDOT's request for FMCSA to make the provisions of this
final rule applicable to intrastate CDL drivers and intrastate-only
motor carriers, applicable statutes provide no authority for FMCSA to
do so. As explained in the preamble to the final rule, FMCSA's
authority to require CDL drivers to be physically-qualified and to
obtain a medical certificate is limited to drivers in interstate
commerce (49 U.S.C. 31305(a)(7)). Therefore, the requirement in the
2008 final rule that CDL drivers submit their medical certificates to
SDLAs only applies to drivers engaged in interstate transportation who
are not excepted from the requirement to be physically qualified (73 FR
73097, 49 CFR 383.71 and 383.73). Because the 2008 final rule does not
apply to intrastate-only CDL drivers in the first place, FMCSA cannot
take any action regarding the need for such drivers to carry paper
copies of any medical certificates and for their employers to obtain
copies for their driver qualification files.

The Final Rule

    The Agency adopts the proposed rule as final without any changes.

Rulemaking Analyses and Notices

Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures

    The FMCSA has determined that this final rule is not a significant
regulatory action within the meaning of Executive Order (E.O.) 12866,
as supplemented by E.O. 13563, 76 FR 3821 (Jan. 21, 2011), or within
the meaning of the Department of Transportation regulatory policies and
procedures. Therefore, the Agency was not required to submit this rule
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The changes made in this
final rule will have minimal costs and a full regulatory evaluation is
unnecessary.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    In compliance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-
612), FMCSA has evaluated the effects of this rule on small entities.
The rule extends, until January 30, 2014, the existing requirement for
interstate CDL holders subject to Federal physical qualifications
requirements and their employers to retain a copy of a medical
examiner's certificate. Because extending the current requirement will
not materially impact small entities, I certify that this final rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by State, local, and Tribal governments, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector, of $143.1 million (which is
the value in 2010 of $100 million after adjusting for inflation) or
more in any 1 year. The FMCSA has determined that the impact of this
rulemaking will not reach this threshold.

Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform)

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

Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children)

    The FMCSA analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045,
Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks. The Agency determined that this final rule does not concern an
environmental risk to health or safety that may disproportionately
affect children.

Executive Order 12630 (Taking of Private Property)

    This final rule does not affect a taking of private property or
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference With Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights.

Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)

    The FMCSA analyzed this final rule in accordance with the
principles and criteria contained in Executive Order 13132. Although
the 2008 final rule had Federalism implications, FMCSA determined that
it did not create 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. Today's final rule does not change that determination in
any way.

Executive Order 12372 (Intergovernmental Review)

    The regulations implementing Executive Order 12372 regarding
intergovernmental consultation on Federal programs and activities do
not apply to this final rule.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507(d)) requires
that FMCSA consider the impact of paperwork and other information
collection burdens imposed on the public. FMCSA has determined that no
new information collection requirements are associated with the
requirements in this final rule.

National Environmental Policy Act

    The FMCSA analyzed this final rule for the purpose of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and
determined under our environmental procedures Order 5610.1, published
March 1, 2004, (69 FR 9680) that this final rule does not have any
significant impact on the environment. In addition, the actions in this
rule are categorically excluded from further analysis and documentation
as per paragraph 6.b of Appendix 2 of FMCSA's Order 5610.1. The FMCSA
also analyzed this final rule under the Clean Air Act, as amended
(CAA), section 176(c) (42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.), and implementing
regulations promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency. This
final rule is exempt from the CAA's general conformity requirement
since the action results in no increase in emissions.

Executive Order 13211 (Energy Effects)

    The FMCSA analyzed this final rule under Executive Order 13211,
Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. The Agency determined that it is not a
``significant energy action'' under that Executive Order because it is
not economically significant and is not likely to have an adverse
effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy.

21 CFR Part 520

Oral Dosage Form New Animal Drugs; Spectinomycin

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal
drug regulations to correct an error in the indications for use for
spectinomycin oral solution in swine. FDA is also amending the
regulations for other oral dosage forms of spectinomycin to reflect a
current format. These actions are being taken to improve the accuracy
and readability of the animal drug regulations.

DATES: This rule is effective February 5, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA has noticed that the animal drug
regulations do not reflect the approved indications for use for
spectinomycin oral solution in swine. At this time, FDA is amending the
animal drug regulations in Sec.  520.2123c (21 CFR 520.2123c) to
correct this error. FDA is also amending the regulations in Sec.
520.2123a for spectinomycin tablets and in Sec.  520.2123b for
spectinomycin powder to reflect a current format. These actions are
being taken to improve the accuracy and readability of the animal drug
regulations.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C.
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.''
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

Petition for Waiver of Compliance

    In accordance with part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), notice is hereby given that the Federal Railroad Administration
(FRA) received a request for a waiver of compliance with certain
requirements of its safety standards. The individual petition is
described below, including the party seeking relief, the regulatory
provisions involved, the nature of the relief being requested, and the

    The CSX Transportation (CSXT) would like to respectfully request a
waiver to the portion of 49 CFR 236.303 requiring portable derails to
be connected to the signal system. Due to the current economic
downturn, CSXT has found it necessary to use main, siding, and
auxiliary tracks to facilitate the storing of cars. Cars and equipment
are being stored in accordance with 49 CFR 232.103. The railroad also
feels that the placing of portable derails on these tracks will
increase the security of these cars that are being stored for an
undetermined length of time.
    Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings
by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party
desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in
writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for
their request.

Duty Vehicles, Including Light-Duty Trucks (Renewal).

    ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1285.08, OMB Control No. 2060-0132.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2012. Under
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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 OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations
in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such
as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The
display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: Nonconformance penalty (NCP) provisions allow a
manufacturer to introduce into commerce heavy-duty engines, heavy-duty
vehicles and/or light-duty trucks which fail to conform to certain
emission standards, upon payment of a monetary penalty. The information
collected from manufacturers electing to utilize NCPs includes a
description of their product(s) and test data to verify compliance.
This information is collected by the Diesel Engine Compliance Center
(DECC) in the Compliance Division (CD), Office of Transportation and
Air Quality, Office of Air and Radiation (OAR), of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency. DECC uses this information to ensure
that manufacturers are in compliance with Clean Air Act and EPA
regulations and are paying the appropriate penalties. Besides DECC,
this information could be used by the Office of Enforcement and
Compliance Assurance and the Department of Justice for enforcement
purposes. Non-Confidential Business Information (CBI) information may
be disclosed upon request under the Freedom of Information Act to trade
associations, environmental groups, and the public.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 23
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: manufacturers of heavy-duty engines,
heavy-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1.
    Estimated Total Average Number of Responses for Each Respondent:
24.
    Frequency of Response: Annual, quarterly, and on occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 541.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $ 81,163, which includes $39,344 in
annualized capital or O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 637 hours in the
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. While the previous ICR estimated that 2
manufacturers would utilize NCPs, with three engine families each.
Based on past and current experience, EPA now estimates that only one
manufacturer will use NCPs with a total of 4 engine families. The
average burden per response has decreased slightly, reflecting an
increase use of electronic methods for reporting and recordkeeping.
