SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it would expand the availability of RNAV in Alaska and
improve the efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace
System (NAS) by lessening the dependency on ground based navigation.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments as they
may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.
    Communications should identify both docket numbers (FAA Docket No.
FAA-2021-1100; Airspace Docket No. 19-AAL-65) and be submitted in

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F
lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service
routes, and reporting points.

Background

    In 2003, Congress enacted the Vision 100-Century of Aviation
Reauthorization Act (Pub. L. 108-176), which established a joint
planning and development office in the FAA to manage the work related
to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). Today,
NextGen is an ongoing FAA-led modernization of the nation's air
transportation system to make flying safer, more efficient, and more
predictable.
    In support of NextGen, this proposal is part of a larger and
comprehensive T-route modernization project in the state of Alaska. The
project mission statement states: ``To modernize Alaska's Air Traffic
Service route structure using satellite based navigation Development of
new T-routes and optimization of existing T-routes will enhance safety,
increase efficiency and access, and will provide en route continuity
that is not subject to the restrictions associated with ground based
airway navigation.'' As part of this project, the FAA evaluated the
existing Colored Airway structure for: (a) Direct replacement (i.e.,
overlay) with a T-route that offers a similar or lower Minimum En route
Altitude (MEA) or Global Navigation Satellite System Minimum En route
Altitude (GNSS MEA); (b) the replacement of the colored airway with a
T-route in an optimized but similar geographic area, while retaining
similar or lower MEA; or (c) removal with no route structure (T-route)
restored in that area because the value was determined to be
insignificant.
    The aviation industry/users have indicated a desire for the FAA to
transition the Alaskan en route navigation structure away from
dependency on Non-Directional Beacons (NDB), and move to develop and
improve the RNAV route structure. The FAA proposes to amend RNAV route
T-235 to provide an alternate waypoints (WPs), the ZISDU WP for the
Atqasuk, AK (ATK) NDB, and the JATIL WP for the Nuiqsut, AK, (UQS) NDB,
in anticipation of the future decommissioning of the two NDBs.
Additionally, the FAA proposes to extend the airway west to a newly
established FILEV WP in the vicinity of Wainwright, AK. This extension
would provide an alternate route for Colored airway G-17, supporting
the future decommissioning of the Wainwright Village, AK, (UKK) NDB.
Furthermore, the Put River, AK (PVQ) NDB is expected to be
decommissioned. This proposal would provide an alternate in that area
for Colored airway G-16 by extending the route to the east from the
JATIL WP to the Deadhorse, AK, (SCC) VHF omnidirectional range with
distance measuring equipment (VOR/DME).

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend RNAV
route

T-235 in the vicinity of Atqasuk, AK in support of a large and
comprehensive T-route modernization project for the state of Alaska.
The proposed route is described below.
    T-235: The FAA proposes to amend T-235 by extending the route from
the FILEV, AK, WP to the ZISDU, AK, WP. From the ZISDU, AK, WP, the
route would provide guidance to the Nuiqsut Airport (PAQT), AK via the
JATIL, AK, WP and the ZADRO, AK, WP. Finally, the route would extend
east from the ZADRO, AK, WP to the Deadhorse, AK, (SCC) VOR/DME.
    United States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph
6011 of FAA Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.
The RNAV listed in this document would be published subsequently in FAA
Order JO 7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation
of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    I. Overview: Great Dane has determined that certain MY 2019 Great
Dane Freedom Platform trailers do not fully comply with paragraph S5.3
of FMVSS No. 223, Rear Impact Guards (49 CFR 571.223), and paragraph
S5.1 of FMVSS No 224, Rear Impact Protection (49 CFR 571.224). Great
Dane filed a noncompliance report dated January 2, 2019, pursuant to 49
CFR part 573, Defect and Noncompliance Responsibility and Reports, and
subsequently petitioned NHTSA on January 2, 2019, for an exemption from
the notification and remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 on
the basis that this noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to
motor vehicle safety, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h) and
49 CFR part 556, Exemption for Inconsequential Defect or Noncompliance.
    This notice of receipt of their petition is published under 49
U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any agency decision or
other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of the petition.
    II. Trailers Involved: Approximately 72 MY 2019 Great Dane Freedom
Platform trailers, manufactured between July 10, 2018, and November 8,
2018, are potentially involved.
    III. Noncompliance: Great Dane explained that the noncompliance is
that the subject trailers were manufactured with a rear impact guard
that does not contain the certification plate as required by paragraphs
S5.3 of FMVSS No. 223 and S5.1 of FMVSS No. 224.
    IV. Rule Text: Paragraphs S5.3 of FMVSS No. 223 and S5.1 of FMVSS
No. 224 include the requirements relevant to this petition. Each guard
shall be permanently labeled with the information specified in
paragraphs S5.3(a) through (c) of FMVSS No. 223. The information shall
be in English and in letters that are at least 2.5mm high. The label
shall be placed on the forward or rearward facing surface of the
horizontal member of the guard, provided that the label does not
interfere with the retroreflective sheeting required by S<IP_ADDRESS>.1(c)
of FMVSS No. 108 (49 CFR 571.108), and is readily accessible for visual
inspection and includes the following: (a) The guard manufacturer's
name and address, (b) the statement: ``Manufactured in ____''
(inserting the month and year of guard manufacture), and (c) the
letters ``DOT,'' constituting a certification by the guard manufacturer
that the guard conforms to all requirements of this standard. FMVSS No.
224 requires that each vehicle shall be equipped with a rear impact
guard certified as meeting FMVSS No. 223.
    V. Summary of Great Dane's Petition: The following views and
arguments presented in this section, V. Summary of Great Dane's
Petition, are the views and arguments provided by Great Dane. They have
not been evaluated by the agency and do not reflect the views of the
agency.
    Accordingly, Great Dane described the subject noncompliance and
stated that the noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to motor
vehicle safety.
    1. Great Dane believes that the lack of the impact guard
certification plate, is an inconsequential type of noncompliance as it
relates to vehicle safety. The fact that the certification plate was
not installed on the rear impact guard on this particular group of
trailers does not make these trailers any less safe.
    2. Great Dane stated that these rear impact guards as manufactured
and installed by Great Dane, are compliant as required by the Federal
Standard.
    3. The subject trailers have affixed to them certification plates,
certifying that the entire trailer, including the rear impact guard,
meet and/or exceed all the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards in
effect, on the date of manufacture as indicated.
    4. To meet the standards of FMVSS 223 and 224, Great Dane has never
installed a third party produced rear impact guard on any of its
trailers.
    5. The incident that lead to these trailers being produced without
the plate attached was an isolated incident. It has since been
investigated, resolved, and should not occur again in the future.
    6. Great Dane believes that the extra certification plate required
on the rear impact guard is redundant.
    Great Dane concluded by expressing the belief that the subject
noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety,
and that its petition to be exempted from providing notification of the
noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118, and a remedy for the
noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120, should be granted.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any decision on
this petition only applies to the subject trailers that Great Dane no
longer controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance
existed. However, any decision on this petition does not relieve
vehicle distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer
for sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant trailers under their control after Great
Dane notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

    Authority: (49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: Delegations of authority at
49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8).

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2017-12-13, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A320-212, -214, -
232, and -233 airplanes. AD 2017-12-13 requires repetitive low
frequency eddy current inspections or repetitive high frequency eddy
current inspections of the pocket radius at certain areas of the
fuselage frame, and repair if necessary. Since the FAA issued AD 2017-
12-13, it was determined that cracks can initiate and develop between
certain other fuselage frames of the pocket radii and additional
airplanes are subject to the unsafe condition. This proposed AD would
require new repetitive inspections at the left- (LH) and right-hand
(RH) sides of the fuselage skin at certain frames for any cracking, and
repair if necessary, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety
Agency (EASA), which is proposed for incorporation by reference. The
FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by June 7,
2021.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.

Discussion

    The FAA issued AD 2017-12-13, Amendment 39-18928 (82 FR 27983, June
20, 2017) (AD 2017-12-13), which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model
A320-212, -214, -232, and -233 airplanes. AD 2017-12-13 requires
repetitive low frequency eddy current inspections or repetitive high
frequency eddy current inspections at the pocket radius between
fuselage frame (FR) 35 and FR40, and repair if necessary. The FAA
issued AD 2017-12-13 to address cracking of the pocket radius, which
could lead to in-flight decompression of

the airplane and possible injury to the passengers.

Actions Since AD 2017-12-13 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2017-12-13, it was determined that cracks
can initiate and develop between FR35 and FR47 of the pocket radii.
Further investigation identified that additional airplanes are affected
by the unsafe condition.
    The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2020-0280, dated December 14, 2020
(EASA AD 2020-0280) (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or the MCAI), to correct an unsafe condition
for certain Airbus SAS Model A318-111, -112 and -122 airplanes; Model
A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes; and
Model A320-211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes. EASA AD
2020-0280 supersedes EASA AD 2014-0278, dated December 19, 2014 (which
corresponds to FAA AD 2017-12-13).
    This proposed AD was prompted by a report of a crack found during
an inspection of the pocket radius of the fuselage frame, and a
determination that similar cracks may develop in nearby areas of the
fuselage frame and that additional airplanes are subject to the unsafe
condition. The FAA is proposing this AD to address cracking of the
pocket radius, which could lead to in-flight decompression of the
airplane and possible injury to the passengers. See the MCAI for
additional background information.

Explanation of Retained Requirements

    Although this proposed AD does not explicitly restate the
requirements of AD 2017-12-13, this proposed AD would retain certain
requirements of AD 2017-12-13. Those requirements are referenced in
EASA AD 2020-0280, which, in turn, is referenced in paragraph (g) of
this proposed AD.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA AD 2020-0280 describes procedures for doing repetitive
external general visual inspections or special detailed inspections
(i.e., phased array ultrasonic technology inspections of the external
skin, or detailed inspections for primer/paint cracks and high
frequency eddy current inspections of the internal skin) at the LH and
RH sides of the fuselage skin, above stringer 6 from FR35 to FR47, for
any cracking, and repair if necessary.
    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.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to the FAA's bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority,
the FAA has been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
referenced above. The FAA is proposing this AD because the FAA
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in EASA AD 2020-0280 described previously, as incorporated by
reference, except for any differences identified as exceptions in the
regulatory text of this AD.

Explanation of Required Compliance Information

    In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA initially worked with Airbus and EASA to develop a
process to use certain EASA ADs as the primary source of information
for compliance with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has
since coordinated with other manufacturers and civil aviation
authorities (CAAs) to use this process. As a result, EASA AD 2020-0280
will be incorporated by reference in the FAA final rule. This proposed
AD would, therefore, require compliance with EASA AD 2020-0280 in its
entirety, through that incorporation, except for any differences
identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this proposed AD.
Using common terms that are the same as the heading of a particular
section in the EASA AD does not mean that operators need comply only
with that section. For example, where the AD requirement refers to
``all required actions and compliance times,'' compliance with this AD
requirement is not limited to the section titled ``Required Action(s)
and Compliance Time(s)'' in the EASA AD. Service information specified
in EASA AD 2020-0280 that is required for compliance with EASA AD 2020-
0280 will be available at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for
and locating Docket No. FAA-2021-0334 after the FAA final rule is
published.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 439 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD:

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

    The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost
estimates for the repairs specified in this proposed AD.

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

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority,
as it establishes Class E airspace at New Coalinga Municipal Airport,
Coalinga, CA, to support IFR operations at the airport.

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register for FAA-2022-1440 (87 FR 76429; December 14, 2022) to
establish Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface at New Coalinga Municipal Airport, Coalinga, CA. This action
was to support the airport's transition from VFR to IFR operations.
Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by submitting written comments to the FAA on the proposal. No
comments were received.

Incorporation by Reference

    Class E5 airspace is published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order JO
7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This
document amends FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and
effective September 15, 2022. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly
available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. These
amendments will be published in the next update to FAA Order JO
7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11G lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by establishing Class E airspace
at New Coalinga Municipal Airport, Coalinga, CA, extending upward from
700 feet above the surface within a 3.7-mile radius of the airport. In
addition, Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the
surface is established within an area 1.9 miles each side of the
134[deg] bearing from the airport, extending from the 3.7-mile radius
to 9.4 miles

southeast from the airport, and within 3.4 miles each side of the
346[deg] bearing from the airport, extending from the 3.7-mile radius
to 7.7 miles northwest of the airport. This airspace is designed to
accommodate arriving IFR operations below 1,500 feet above the surface
and departing IFR operations until they reach 1,200 feet above the
surface, and will support the airport's transition from VFR to IFR
operations.
    The Class E5 airspace designation is published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September
15, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class
E airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11 is published annually and becomes effective on
September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,
paragraph 5-6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to cause any
potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant the preparation of an environmental
assessment.

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

The Amendment

    In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation
Administration amends 14 CFR part 71 as follows:

Associations) filed a joint motion for an extension of time for the
initial filing of Form No. 552, as required by Commission Order Nos.
704, 704-A, and 704-B (Order No. 704).\1\ The motion states that
because many of the Associations' members are unfamiliar with reporting
transactional data under the Commission's rules and because of
questions about the requirements of Form No. 552, as well as
informational system and data collection issues which must be addressed
by the members, additional time is needed to submit the compliance
filing.
