SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    FDA is announcing the availability of a draft document entitled
``Human Gene Therapy for Hemophilia; Draft Guidance for Industry.'' The
draft guidance document provides recommendations to stakeholders
developing GT products for the treatment of hemophilia. The draft
guidance provides recommendations on the clinical trial design and
related development of coagulation factor VIII (hemophilia A) and IX
(hemophilia B) activity assays, including how to address discrepancies
in factor VIII and factor IX activity assays. The draft guidance also
includes recommendations regarding preclinical considerations to
support development of GT products for the treatment of hemophilia.
Hemophilia therapy in the United States has progressed from replacement
therapies for on-demand treatment of bleeding to prophylaxis to reduce
the frequency of bleeding. GT products for hemophilia are being
developed as single-dose treatments that may provide long-term
expression of the missing or abnormal coagulation factor in the patient
at steady levels to reduce or eliminate the need for exogenous factor
replacement.
    Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, FDA is announcing
the availability of two other human gene therapy draft guidance
documents entitled ``Human Gene Therapy for Retinal Disorders; Draft
Guidance for Industry'' and ``Human Gene Therapy for Rare Diseases;
Draft Guidance for Industry.''
    This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when
finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on ``Human Gene
Therapy for Hemophilia.'' It does not establish any rights for any
person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an
alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable
statutes and regulations. This guidance is not subject to Executive
Order 12866.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This draft guidance refers to previously approved collections of
information subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
The collections of information in 21 CFR part 58 have been approved
under OMB control number 0910-0119; the collections of information in
21 CFR part 211 have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0139;
the collections of information in 21 CFR part 312 have been approved
under OMB control number 0910-0014; the collections of information in
21 CFR part 601 have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0338;
the collections of information in the guidance entitled ``Expedited
Programs for Serious Conditions--Drugs and Biologics'' have been
approved under OMB control number 0910-0765; and the collections of
information in the guidance entitled ``Formal Meetings Between the FDA
and Sponsors or Applicants'' have been approved under OMB control

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: California Department of Transportation has
requested a temporary change to the operation of the Tower Drawbridge,
mile 59.0, over Sacramento River, at Sacramento, CA. The drawbridge
navigation span provides a vertical clearance of 30 feet above Mean
High Water in the closed-to-navigation position. The draw opens on
signal from May 1 through October 31 from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. and from
November 1 through April 30 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. At all other times
the draw shall open on signal if at least four hours notice is given,
as required by 33 CFR 117.189(a). Navigation on the waterway is
commercial and recreational.
    The drawspan will be secured in the closed-to-navigation position
7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. on April 27, 2014, to allow the community to
participate in the Capitol City Classic 10k run. This temporary
deviation has been coordinated with the waterway users. No objections
to the proposed temporary deviation were raised.

    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may
do so at anytime. The bridge will be able to open for emergencies and
there is no immediate alternate route for vessels to pass. The Coast
Guard will also inform the users of the waterway through our Local and
Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating schedule for
the bridge so that vessels can arrange their transits to minimize any
impact caused by the temporary deviation.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: April 11, 2014.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Public Notice for a Change in Use of Aeronautical Property at Los
Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles, California

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is requesting public
comment on Los Angeles World Airports' (LAWA) request to change
approximately 5 acres of airport property from aeronautical use to non-
aeronautical use.
    The property is located at the northeast intersection of
Westchester Parkway and Falmouth Avenue. The property is currently
vacant land with no structures onsite. LAWA requests to develop the
land with the Argo Drain Sub-Basin Facility. The Sub-Basin Facility is
primarily an underground storm water treatment facility designed to
potentially allow open space uses on the surface. The Sub-Basin
Facility also includes two above-ground elements: A pump facility and
blower building.

    Documents reflecting the LAWA's request are available, by
appointment only, at the FAA Los Angeles Airports District Office.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before March 5, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Documents are available for review at the FAA Los Angeles
Airports District Office, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Room 3000,
Lawndale, CA 90261,<PHONE_NUMBER>. Written comments on LAWA's request
must be delivered or mailed, 2 copies to: Lemuel del Castillo, 15000
Aviation Boulevard Room 3000, Lawndale, CA 90261,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lemuel del Castillo, 15000 Aviation
Boulevard, Room 3000, Lawndale, CA 90261,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125 of The Wendell H. Ford Aviation
Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR-21) requires the
FAA to provide an opportunity for public notice and comment prior to
the ``waiver'' or ``modification'' of a sponsor's Federal obligation to
use certain airport land for aeronautical purposes.
    The following is a brief overview of the request: The project site
is located within the City of Los Angeles, on LAWA's property, adjacent
to LAX. The project site is located on the east and west side of
Falmouth Avenue, just north of Westchester Parkway. The project site is
vacant land with no structures currently onsite. LAWA requests to
develop the land with the Argo Drain Sub-Basin Facility (Sub-Basin
Facility) to address airport environmental compliance needs. The Sub-
Basin Facility is primarily an underground storm water treatment
facility designed to potentially allow open space uses on the surface.
The Sub-Basin Facility also includes two above-ground elements: a pump
facility and blower building. LAWA's industrial areas, existing and
future capitals improvement projects will need multiple independent
storm water treatment facilities. This project will avoid the
construction of multiple independent facilities. The Argo-Drain Sub-
Basin will allow LAWA to achieve a campus-wide approach to compliance
with Low Impact Development requirements. It will also assist with the
overall compliance strategy for Industrial General Permit requirements.
LAWA and Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation will have a lease agreement
in place in order to address the share of financial responsibility for
the Sub-Basin Facility.

 BILLING CODE 4910-13-P


DATED: DECEMBER 5, 2003; SIGNED: M. S. ALUSHIN Mr. Dave Darling Director Environmental Affairs National Paint and Coatings Association 1500 Rhode Island Avenue, N. W. Washington, D. C. 20005 5597 Dear Mr. Darling:

This is in response to your letter of October 24, 2003, to Mr. Jeffrey Holmstead, Assistant Administrator, Office of Air and Radiation. Although that office is preparing a separate reply, the authority to respond to several of the issues raised has been delegated to my division.

In your letter, you requested that the Agency provide an interpretation of several regulatory citations of the signed rule, where errors, omissions, or contradictions occurred between regulatory text and the referenced tables, regulatory text, preamble language or intent. Specifically, the issues as stated by the National Paints and Coatings Association ( NPCA) and the Agency's responses are as follows:

NPCA Comment 1:

In the regulation at Table 1 1. a., 2. a., 2. b. and 3. a. ( process tanks) the wording is very problematic. The language states that the vessel must either be equipped with " a cover or lid that must be in place at all times when the vessel contains a HAP" ( 1. a. and 2. a.); or " with a tightly fitting vented cover or lid that must be closed at all times when the vessel contains a HAP" ( 2. b. and 3. a.). This appears to suggest that there is no allowance for any opening of lids/ covers during processing or cleaning, which would effectively make the rule impossible for any coating manufacturer to comply with. This also contradicts the preamble and regulation itself which specifically exempts manual cleaning operations and systems used with closed vent systems to " draw ambient air away from operators when vessels are opened."

Preparedby: mmia: mlw: 12/ 3/ 03: 564 7042: 2223A: DCTM_ ARP. wpd 2 Agency Response 1:

Although we agree in principle with your proposed correction in the first item, we do not believe that the record makes it clear that our intent was to allow the opening of lids when the vessel contains hazardous air pollutants ( HAP) for material addition and sampling. Additionally, we do not find the rule to be clear that such openings would require that the owner or operator employ an elephant trunk for portable vessel openings or an elephant trunk, closed vent system that is under vacuum, or an enclosure complying with the total reduction requirement for stationary vessel openings. Therefore, we believe that the rule will have to be corrected through rulemaking to address this comment.

NPCA Comment 2:

Section 63.7995( c)  " If you add equipment to your existing affected source after [ INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION OF THIS FINAL RULE IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER] you must comply with the requirements for existing sources in this subpart upon start up of the added equipment." This appears to be an error as there is no precedent either in the proposal or in the general provisions applicable to the subpart under the regulation at § 63.8095 ( listed at Table 10) for eliminating the three year compliance timeline for existing sources that add equipment after the date the final rule is published. Instead, this language should be deleted in favor of a reference to the General Provisions ( § 63.6( c)( 1)( 2)) already provided for at Table 10, or the bracketed language must be replaced with the date three years after the date of publication of the final rule in the Federal Register.

Agency Response 2:

The language at § 63.7995( c) was added between proposal and promulgation to address the addition of new equipment added to an existing source which would be subject to existing source standards. The language was added to make it explicit that such equipment would be subject to existing source standards immediately upon startup, if installed AFTER the compliance date. As you pointed out, there is no precedent in either the proposal or the General Provisions that equipment added prior to the compliance date subject to existing source requirements would have to immediately comply upon startup. Such equipment would have until the compliance date to comply. Such equipment added after the compliance would have to comply upon startup.

NPCA Comment 3:

Part IV Summary of Responses to Major Comments under C. Standards for Process Vessels  " Finally, we have not required control of cleaning that is accomplished manually. However, emissions resulting from automatic wash systems are required to be considered and controlled." This is not carried forward into the regulations  the 3 regulation itself makes no mention of manual vs. automatic cleaning operations, only stating at § 63.7985( b) that " Miscellaneous coating manufacturing operations also include cleaning operations." This statement appears to mandate all cleaning operations have to be controlled, contrary to preamble language.

Agency Response 3:

Manual cleaning operations are discussed in the preamble to the final rule in Part IV Summary of Responses to Major Comments under C. Standards for Process Vessels. It was our intent that only automatic cleaning operations are required to be considered and controlled. The preamble to the final rule states:

Finally, we have not required control of cleaning that is accomplished manually. However, emissions resulting from automatic wash systems are required to be considered and controlled.

NPCA Comment 4:

In the regulation at Table 1  2. a. i and 2. b. i. ( process tanks) the wording is problematic. Instead of using the " reduce emissions of total organic HAP . . . 75% by weight for process vessels with a vapor pressure of . . . ," that is used for the rest of the standards in Table 1, the terminology is changed and states " . . . reduce emissions by 75% by weight for each HAP with a vapor pressure . . . . " This appears to suggest that the standard mandates a 75% reduction of total HAP emissions from the process vessel or, depending on the vapor pressure of HAPs contained in the vessel, a 60% reduction in total HAP emissions.

Agency Response 4:

With respect to the language in Table 1  2. a. i and 2. b. i., the correct wording should be " for HAPs" not " for each HAP." This is consistent with the floor determination and the proposed rule as well as the other entries in Table 1 found at 2. b. ii., 2. b. iii., and 3. a.

It is our understanding that OAQPS is planning to publish the necessary notice proposing amendments in the Federal Register. This will occur after the 60 day period following publication of the final rule and will encompass these issues as well as two others that NPCA raised, which are beyond the scope of this letter. In the meantime, this letter serves to clarify the Agency's intent with respect to the issues discussed here. 4 This response was coordinated with the Office of General Counsel ( OGC) and the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards. If you have any questions, please call Marcia Mia, of my staff, at ( 202) 564 7042.

Very truly yours,
