[Docket No. CP23-489-000]

National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization and Establishing Intervention and Protest
Deadline

    Take notice that on June 1, 2023, National Fuel Gas Supply
Corporation (National Fuel), 6363 Main Street, Williamsville, New York
14221, filed in the above referenced docket a prior notice request
pursuant to sections 157.205 and 157.216 of the Commission's
regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA), and National Fuel's
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-4-000, for authorization
to abandon in-place approximately 12 miles of its 12-inch-diameter Line
FM120 and related appurtenances in Elk and Cameron Counties,
Pennsylvania. The project will allow National Fuel to eliminate the
need for capital expenditures associated with the maintenance and
repair of the 1950s vintage facilities that are no longer needed for
transportation service. National Fuel states that the proposed
abandonment will not result in the

reduction of system capacity, termination of any services, nor the
quality of service to any of its customers, all as more fully set forth
in the request which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
    In addition to publishing the full text of this document in the

Protests

    Pursuant to section 157.205 of the Commission's regulations under
the NGA,\1\ any person \2\ or the Commission's staff may file a protest
to the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed or if a
protest is filed and then withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed
time for filing a protest, the proposed activity shall be deemed to be
authorized effective the day after the time allowed for protest. If a
protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time
allowed for filing a protest, the instant request for authorization
will be considered by the Commission.

    \1\ 18 CFR 157.205.
    \2\ Persons include individuals, organizations, businesses,
municipalities, and other entities. 18 CFR 385.102(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Protests must comply with the requirements specified in section
157.205(e) of the Commission's regulations,\3\ and must be submitted by
the protest deadline, which is August 7, 2023. A protest may also serve
as a motion to intervene so long as the protestor states it also seeks
to be an intervenor.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 18 CFR 157.205(e).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interventions

    Any person has the option to file a motion to intervene in this
proceeding. Only intervenors have the right to request rehearing of
Commission orders issued in this proceeding and to subsequently
challenge the Commission's orders in the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeal.
    To intervene, you must submit a motion to intervene to the
Commission in accordance with Rule 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure \4\ and the regulations under the NGA \5\ by the
intervention deadline for the project, which is August 7, 2023. As
described further in Rule 214, your motion to intervene must state, to
the extent known, your position regarding the proceeding, as well as
your interest in the proceeding. For an individual, this could include
your status as a landowner, ratepayer, resident of an impacted
community, or recreationist. You do not need to have property directly
impacted by the project in order to intervene. For more information
about motions to intervene, refer to the FERC website at https://www.ferc.gov/resources/guides/how-to/intervene.asp.

    All timely, unopposed motions to intervene are automatically
granted by operation of Rule 214(c)(1). Motions to intervene that are
filed after the intervention deadline are untimely and may be denied.
Any late-filed motion to intervene must show good cause for being late
and must explain why the time limitation should be waived and provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the
Commission's Rules and Regulations. A person obtaining party status
will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies (paper or electronic) of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties.

comments are timely and properly recorded, please submit your comments
on or before August 7, 2023. The filing of a comment alone will not
serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. To become a party,
you must intervene in the proceeding.

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2023-0438; Project Identifier 2015-NM-065-AD; Amendment
39-22476; AD 2016-15-01R1]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; removal.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is removing Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2016-15-01,
which applied to all Airbus SAS Model A300 series airplanes; Model A300
B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R
Variant F airplanes (collectively called Model A300-600 series
airplanes); and Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2016-15-01 required an
inspection to determine trimmable horizontal stabilizer actuator (THSA)
part numbers, serial numbers, and flight cycles on certain THSAs; and
repetitive replacement of certain THSAs. The FAA issued AD 2016-15-01
to prevent loss of THSA no-back brake (NBB) efficiency. Since the FAA
issued AD 2016-15-01, the FAA has issued AD 2022-25-12 to terminate AD
2016-15-01 for Model A310 series airplanes and AD 2023-11-02 to
terminate AD 2016-15-01 for Model A300-600 series airplanes. The FAA
has also determined that the inclusion of the Model A300 series
airplanes in the applicability of AD 2016-15-01 was an inadvertent
error. Accordingly, AD 2016-15-01 is removed.

DATES: This AD becomes effective June 23, 2023.

ADDRESSES:
    AD Docket: You may examine the AD docket at regulations.gov under
Docket No. FAA-2023-0438; 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, any comments received, and other
information. The address for Docket Operations is U.S. Department of
Transportation, Docket Operations, M-30, West Building Ground Floor,
Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by removing AD 2016-15-01, Amendment 39-18592 (81 FR 47696,
July 22, 2016) (AD 2016-15-01). AD 2016-15-01 applied to all Airbus SAS
Model A300 series airplanes; Model A300-600 series airplanes; and Model
A310 series airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on
March 28, 2023 (88 FR 18263). The NPRM was prompted by the FAA issuing
AD 2022-25-12, Amendment 39-22268 (87 FR 78518, December 22, 2022) to
terminate AD 2016-15-01 for Model A310 series airplanes, and by the FAA
issuing AD 2023-11-02, Amendment 39-22447 (88 FR 36930, June 6, 2023)
to terminate AD 2016-15-01 for Model A300-600 series airplanes. The FAA
has also determined that the inclusion of the Model A300 series
airplanes in the applicability of AD 2016-15-01 was an inadvertent
error.

The NPRM proposed to remove AD 2016-15-01. The FAA is issuing this AD
to remove AD 2016-15-01.

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

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered any comments
received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Except for minor editorial changes, this AD is adopted as
proposed in the NPRM. None of the changes will increase the economic
burden on any operator.
    This AD removes all actions of AD 2016-15-01. Therefore, the
requirements of AD 2016-15-01 are terminated.

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.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA determined that 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.

reference, Safety.
