SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: Recruitment of human subjects for observational experiments
regarding keyless ignition controls, gear selection controls and
audible warnings.
    OMB Control Number: Not assigned.
    Type of Request: New Information Collection.
    Abstract: Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. Section 30111(a), the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) (by delegation from the
Secretary of Transportation) is directed to prescribe Federal motor
vehicle safety standards (FMVSSs). Human factors observational
experiments are proposed to support the current agency regulatory
efforts that contemplate revising FMVSS No. 114 (Docket No. NHTSA-2011-
0174 RIN 2127-AK88).
    The first experiment will examine factors contributing to driver
errors in the use of keyless ignition and gear selection controls using
a driving simulator (simulator experiment), and the second experiment
will evaluate the lack of effectiveness in current audible warnings
designed to prevent rollaways related to leaving propulsion systems
operative when the driver leaves the vehicle (rollaway warning
experiment). The simulator experiment will be conducted in a laboratory
setting and participants will be recruited through email. The rollaway
warning experiment will be conducted in a public parking lot using
face-to-face recruitment of participants.
    Before these experiments are conducted, information about the
participants will be collected in order to balance the participants
between younger and older age groups, genders, and previous driving
experience with keyless ignition. The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology Age Lab (Age Lab), under contract with the Volpe National
Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), which is an element of
the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT), Research and
Innovative Technology Administration (RITA), would collect the
participant information and conduct this research under an Inter-Agency
Agreement (IAA) between Volpe Center and NHTSA.
    Affected Public: Participants for the simulator experiment will be
selected from a list of individuals in the Boston area who have
indicated to the Age Lab that they would like to participate in these
types of experiments. Participants for the rollaway warning experiment
will be drawn from passers-by.
    All participants, regardless of which experiment they participate
in, will be asked the same recruiting questions.
    Number of Respondents: 375 respondents, including 135 for the
simulator experiment and 240 for the rollaway experiment.
    Number of Responses: One response per respondent for a total of 375
responses.
    Total Annual Burden Hours: 18.75 hours. This estimate is based on
three minutes per respondent to consider and respond to the 9 to 11
recruitment questions (375 participants x 0.05 hours (i.e., 3
minutes)).
    Frequency of Collection: One time.
    On April 30, 2012, NHTSA published a notice announcing the proposed
collection of information and providing a 60-day comment period (77 FR
25533). The agency received one comment from

the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers (Alliance). The Alliance
offered detailed comments on the collection of information and the
associated experiments. An extensive discussion of the Alliance
comments and the changes NHTSA has made to the information collection
and ICR package as a result can be found in the supporting statement
that will be placed in the docket for this notice.

Airworthiness Directives; ATR--GIE Avions de Transport
R[eacute]gional Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2021-10-
20, which applied to certain ATR-GIE Avions de Transport
R[eacute]gional Model ATR42-500 and ATR72-212A airplanes. AD 2021-10-20
required revising the existing aircraft flight manual (AFM) and
applicable corresponding operational procedures to update a systems
limitation, limiting dispatch with certain equipment inoperative,
performing an operational test of a certain contactor and an electrical
test of a certain battery toggle switch, and performing corrective
actions if necessary. This AD was prompted by new procedures for
modifying the wiring and replacing the battery toggle switch that have
been developed that would terminate the AD requirements. This AD
continues to require certain actions in AD 2021-10-20, and requires
modifying the battery toggle switch wiring and replacing the battery
toggle switch, and revises the applicability to include additional
airplanes, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD also prohibits
the installation of affected parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective November 9, 2023.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of November 9,
2023.

ADDRESSES:
    AD Docket: You may examine the AD docket at regulations.gov under
Docket No. FAA-2023-1641; or in person at Docket Operations between 9
a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The AD
docket contains this final rule, the mandatory continuing airworthiness
information (MCAI), any comments received, and other information. The

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2021-10-20, Amendment 39-21553 (86 FR
26373, May 14, 2021) (AD 2021-10-20). AD 2021-10-20 applied to certain
ATR-GIE Avions de Transport R[eacute]gional Model ATR42-500 and ATR72-
212A airplanes. AD 2021-10-20 required revising the existing AFM and
applicable corresponding operational procedures to update a systems
limitation, limiting dispatch with certain equipment inoperative,
performing an operational test of a certain contactor and an electrical
test of a certain battery toggle switch, and performing corrective
actions if necessary. The FAA issued AD 2021-10-20 to address reports
of temporary loss of all display units and the integrated electronic
standby instrument (IESI), which could result in loss of control of the
airplane.
    The NPRM published in the Federal Register on July 28, 2023 (88 FR
48764). The NPRM was prompted by AD 2023-0078R1, dated April 20, 2023,
issued by EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of
the European Union (EASA AD 2023-0078R1) (also referred to as the
MCAI). The MCAI states that new modification instructions have been
published that would terminate the requirements of EASA Emergency AD
2021-0120-E, dated May 3, 2021 (which prompted FAA AD 2021-10-20). The
MCAI also expands the applicability to include Model ATR72-101, -102, -
201, -202, -211, and -212 airplanes. The MCAI states that temporary
loss of all display units and the IESI, if not corrected, could result
in loss of control of the airplane.
    In the NPRM, the FAA proposed to continue to require certain
actions in AD 2021-10-20, and to require modifying the battery toggle
switch wiring and replacing the battery toggle switch, and to revise
the applicability to include additional airplanes, as specified in EASA
AD 2023-0078R1. The NPRM also proposed to prohibit the installation of
affected parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.
    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at regulations.gov under
Docket No. FAA-2023-1641.

Changes Since the NPRM Was Issued

    In the ``Costs of Compliance'' section, the NPRM stated an
incorrect estimated cost of the retained actions from AD 2021-10-20.
The FAA has corrected the cost information in this final rule.

Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive

Comments

    The FAA received one comment from Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the NPRM without change.

Conclusion

    These products have been approved by the aviation authority of
another country and are approved for operation in the United States.
Pursuant to the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design
Authority, it has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in
the MCAI referenced above. The FAA reviewed the relevant data,
considered the comment 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 this product. 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

    EASA AD 2023-0078R1 specifies procedures for revising the existing
AFM to update a systems limitation for the transformer rectifier unit
(TRU), limiting dispatch with certain equipment inoperative (which can
be done by amending the operator's minimum equipment list (MEL)),
performing an operational test of the contactor FIN 1PA for
discrepancies (i.e., a lack of power supply to DU 4 or a static
inverter 1 INV FAULT not being displayed on 29VU), replacing the
battery toggle switch FIN 7PA, modifying the wiring, and performing
corrective actions. Corrective actions include replacing the contactor
FIN 1PA and restoring wiring. EASA AD 2023-0078R1 also prohibits the
installation of affected parts.
    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.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 21 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                      Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                Action                         Labor cost           Parts cost        product        operators

                                         hour = $255.
New actions...........................  10 work-hours x $85 per                0             850          17,850
                                         hour = $850.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate.
According to the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of
this 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

    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.

[Docket ID FEMA-2014-0002]

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final notice.

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

SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1-percent annual chance) Flood
Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundaries or zone designations, and/or regulatory floodways
(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard determinations) as shown on
the indicated Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) for each of the communities
listed in the table below are finalized. Each LOMR revises the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases the Flood Insurance
Study (FIS) reports,

currently in effect for the listed communities. The flood hazard
determinations modified by each LOMR will be used to calculate flood
insurance premium rates for new buildings and their contents.

DATES: The effective date for each LOMR is indicated in the table
below.

ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for inspection at both the respective
Community Map Repository address listed in the table below and online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at www.msc.fema.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,
FEMA, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or
(email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard determinations as shown in the
LOMRs for each community listed in the table below. Notice of these
modified flood hazard determinations has been published in newspapers
of local circulation and 90 days have elapsed since that publication.
The Deputy Associate Administrator for Mitigation has resolved any
appeals resulting from this notification.
    The modified flood hazard determinations are made pursuant to
section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4105, and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
    For rating purposes, the currently effective community number is
shown and must be used for all new policies and renewals.
    The new or modified flood hazard information is the basis for the
floodplain management measures that the community is required either to
adopt or to show evidence of being already in effect in order to remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
    This new or modified flood hazard information, together with the
floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum
that are required. They should not be construed to mean that the
community must change any existing ordinances that are more stringent
in their floodplain management requirements. The community may at any
time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies
established by other Federal, State, or regional entities.
    This new or modified flood hazard determinations are used to meet
the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and also are used to
calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new
buildings, and for the contents in those buildings. The changes in
flood hazard determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    Interested lessees and owners of real property are encouraged to
review the final flood hazard information available at the address
cited below for each community or online through the FEMA Map Service
Center at www.msc.fema.gov.

myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, coronary insufficiency,
thrombosis, or any other cardiovascular disease of a variety known to
be accompanied by syncope (transient loss of consciousness), dyspnea
(shortness of breath), collapse, or congestive heart failure. If
granted, the exemptions would enable these individuals with ICDs to
operate CMVs in interstate commerce.

II. Background

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA may grant an exemption
from the FMCSRs for no longer than a 5-year period if it finds such
exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to,
or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent such
exemption. The statute also allows the Agency to renew exemptions at
the end of the 5-year period. FMCSA grants medical exemptions from the
FMCSRs for a 2-year period to align with the maximum duration of a
driver's medical certification.
    The three individuals listed in this notice have requested an
exemption from Sec.  391.41(b)(4). Accordingly, the Agency will
evaluate the qualifications of each applicant to determine whether
granting the exemption will achieve the required level of safety
mandated by statute.
    The physical qualification standard found in Sec.  391.41(b)(4)
states that a person is physically qualified to drive a CMV if that
person has no current clinical diagnosis of myocardial infarction,
angina pectoris, coronary insufficiency, thrombosis, or any other
cardiovascular disease of a variety known to be accompanied by syncope,
dyspnea, collapse, or congestive cardiac failure.
    In addition to the regulations, FMCSA has published advisory
criteria \1\ to assist medical examiners in determining whether drivers
with certain medical conditions are qualified to operate a CMV in
interstate commerce. The advisory criteria states that ICDs are
disqualifying due to risk of syncope.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ These criteria may be found in 49 CFR part 391, Appendix A
to Part 391--Medical Advisory Criteria, Section D. Cardiovascular:
Sec.  391.41(b)(4), paragraph 4, which is available on the internet
at https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2015-title49-vol5/pdf/CFR-2015-title49-vol5-part391-appA.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Qualifications of Applicants

Timothy Broome

    Mr. Broome is a CMV driver in South Carolina. A January 18, 2022,
letter from Mr. Broome's cardiologist reports that his ICD was
initially implanted in December 2004 for paroxysmal ventricular
tachycardia. His cardiologist's letter reports that on October 27,
2011, Mr. Broom's ICD was explanted and replaced with a different
model, and on August 13, 2019, that model was explanted and replaced
with his current model. His letter also reports that Mr. Broome was
treated in January 2018 with a ventricular tachycardia ablation, that
he has experienced no ICD shocks or therapies since December 2017, his
underlying heart condition is NYHA Class 1--functional status, he is
asymptomatic, and his left ventricular ejection fraction was 25 to 30
percent on his last echocardiogram in 2018.

Bryce Alyn Norman

    Mr. Norman of California does not operate but intends to operate a
CMV if granted an exemption. A November 4, 2021, letter from his
cardiologist reports that Mr. Norman has catecholaminergic polymorphic
ventricular tachycardia, that he had a cardiac arrest in 2019 and now
has an ICD and is taking medication. The cardiologist's letter states
that he sees no contraindications for Mr. Norman to drive a CMV as long
as he is compliant with his medication. A letter of March 9, 2022, from
a second cardiologist provides the same diagnosis, stating that Mr.
Norman has had no other events since 2019, his ICD has never deployed,
he is asymptomatic, and his current heart condition is stable.

Abiud Ortuno

    Mr. Ortuno is a CMV driver in the Florida. A February 18, 2022,
letter from Mr. Ortuno's cardiologist reports that an ICD was implanted
in December 2020 for Brugada syndrome. His cardiologist's letter
reports that Mr. Otuno has not experienced shocks from the device, that
he has stable cardiac functioning,

and indicates that that he may operate a CMV from a cardiac standpoint.

IV. Request for Comments

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA requests
public comment from all interested persons on the exemption petitions
described in this notice. We will consider all comments received before
the close of business on the closing date indicated under the DATES
section of the notice.
