14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2011-1321; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-045-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Airbus Model A319 series airplanes, Model A320-211, -212, -214,
-231, -232, and -233 airplanes, and Model A321 series airplanes that
would supersede an existing AD. This proposed AD results from mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation
authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe
condition as:

    Following an automatic [additional center tank(s)] ACT fuel
transfer failure on an A319, it was noted that the ACT manhole cover
seals were extruded, allowing leakage.
    This condition, if not corrected, can lead to fuel and/or vapour
leakage, possibly resulting in a combustible fuel vapour/air mixture
in the cargo compartment, which would constitute a fire risk.
* * * * *
    The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address
the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 30,
2012.

Discussion

    On October 26, 2005, we issued AD 2005-23-02, Amendment 39-14360
(70 FR 69067, November 14, 2005). That AD required actions intended to
address an unsafe condition on Airbus Model A319-100 Series Airplanes,
Model A320-111 airplanes, Model A320-200 series airplanes, and Model
A321-100 series airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2005-23-02, Amendment 39-14360 (70 FR 69067,
November 14, 2005), The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which
is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community,
has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 2010-0177, dated August 30,
2010 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for the specified products. The MCAI states:

    Following an automatic ACT fuel transfer failure on an A319, it
was noted that the ACT manhole cover seals were extruded, allowing
leakage.
    This condition, if not corrected, can lead to fuel and/or vapour
leakage, possibly resulting in a combustible fuel vapour/air mixture
in the cargo compartment, which would constitute a fire risk.
    DGAC France AD F-2004-038 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2005-23-
02] was issued to require the replacement of the ACT manhole cover
and its seal in accordance with SB A320-28-1105, but this
modification has proved not to be fully effective. Therefore, it is
necessary to replace the seal material and to change the
installation process in order to prevent such seal deformation and
possibility of leakage.

    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD supersedes DGAC
France AD F-2004-038 (EASA approval 2004-2110) and requires the
replacement of the existing manhole seal with a new seal.

This AD also adds certain ACT equipped airplanes, produced after AD
2005-23-02, Amendment 39-14360 (70 FR 69067, November 14, 2005) was
issued, to the applicability. This AD also removes Model A320-111
airplanes from the applicability because there are no operational Model
A320-111 airplanes in the United Stated and Airbus intends to remove
this model from the EASA Type Data Sheet. You may obtain further
information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Airbus has issued Mandatory Service Bulletin A320-28-1162, Revision
02, dated December 18, 2009. The actions described in this service
information are intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in
the MCAI.

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 our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
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.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in
general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it
necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the
AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these
changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information
provided in the MCAI and related service information.
    We might also have proposed different actions in this AD from those
in the MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. Any such differences are
highlighted in a NOTE within the proposed AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 721 products of U.S. registry.
    The actions that are required by AD 2005-23-02, Amendment 39-14360
(70 FR 69067, November 14, 2005) and retained in this proposed AD take
about 1 work-hour per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work
hour. Required parts cost about $0 per product. Based on these figures,
the estimated cost of the currently required actions is $85 per
product.
    We estimate that it would take about 3 work-hours per product to
comply with the new basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Where the service information lists
required parts costs that are covered under warranty, we have assumed
that there will be no charge for these parts. As we do not control
warranty coverage for affected parties, some parties may incur costs
higher than estimated here. Based on these figures, we estimate the
cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $183,855, or $255 per
product.

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.
    We are 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

    We 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. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release Nos. 33-11095; 34-95597/August 25, 2022]

Order Making Fiscal Year 2023 Annual Adjustments to Registration
Fee Rates

I. Background

    The Commission collects fees under various provisions of the
securities laws. Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933
(``Securities Act'') requires the Commission to collect fees from
issuers on the registration of securities.\1\ Section 13(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act'') requires the
Commission to collect fees on specified repurchases of securities.\2\
Section 14(g) of the Exchange Act requires the Commission to collect
fees on specified proxy solicitations and statements in corporate
control transactions.\3\ These provisions require the Commission to
make annual adjustments to the applicable fee rates.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 77f(b).
    \2\ 15 U.S.C. 78m(e).
    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78n(g).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Fiscal Year 2023 Annual Adjustment to Fee Rates

    Section 6(b)(2) of the Securities Act requires the Commission to
make an annual adjustment to the fee rate applicable under Section
6(b).\4\ The annual adjustment to the fee rate under Section 6(b) of
the Securities Act also sets the annual adjustment to the fee rates
under Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Exchange Act.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 77f(b)(2). The annual adjustments are designed to
adjust the fee rate in a given fiscal year so that, when applied to
the aggregate maximum offering prices at which securities are
proposed to be offered for the fiscal year, it is reasonably likely
to produce total fee collections under Section 6(b) equal to the
``target fee collection amount'' required by Section 6(b)(6)(A) for
that fiscal year.
    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78m(e)(4) and 15 U.S.C. 78n(g)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 6(b)(2) sets forth the method for determining the annual
adjustment to the fee rate under Section 6(b) for fiscal year 2023.
Specifically, the Commission must adjust the fee rate under Section
6(b) to a ``rate that, when applied to the baseline estimate of the
aggregate maximum offering prices for [fiscal year 2023], is reasonably
likely to produce aggregate fee collections under [Section 6(b)] that
are equal to the target fee collection amount for [fiscal year 2023].''
That is, the adjusted rate is determined by dividing the ``target fee
collection amount'' for fiscal year 2023 by the ``baseline estimate of
the aggregate maximum offering prices'' for fiscal year 2023.

III. Target Fee Collection Amount for FY 2023

    The statutory ``target fee collection amount'' for fiscal year 2021
and ``each fiscal year thereafter'' is ``an amount that is equal to the
target fee collection amount for the prior fiscal year, adjusted by the
rate of inflation.'' \6\ Consistent with the fiscal year 2021
calculation, the Commission has determined that it will use an approach
similar to one that it uses to annually adjust civil monetary penalties
by the rate of inflation.\7\ Under this approach, the Commission will
use the year-over-year change, rounded to five decimal places, in the
Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (``CPI-U''), not
seasonally adjusted, in calculating the target fee collection amount,
which is then rounded to the nearest whole dollar. The calculation for
the fiscal year 2023 target fee collection amount is described in more
detail below.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 77f(b)(6)(A).
    \7\ The Commission annually adjusts for inflation the civil
monetary penalties that can be imposed under the statutes
administered by Commission, as required by the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015,
pursuant to guidance from the Office of Management and Budget
(``OMB''). See OMB December 16, 2019, Memorandum for the Heads of
Executive Departments and Agencies,'' M-20-05, on ``Implementation
of Penalty Inflation Adjustments for 2020, Pursuant to the Federal
Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The most recent CPI-U index value, not seasonally adjusted,
available for use by the Commission at the time this fee rate update
was prepared was for June 2022. This value is 296.311.\8\ The CPI-U
index value, not seasonally adjusted, for June 2021 is 271.696.\9\
Dividing the June 2022 value by the June 2021 value and rounding to
five decimal places yields a multiplier value of 1.09060. Multiplying
the fiscal year 2022 target fee collection amount of $747,806,372 \10\
by the multiplier value of 1.09060 and rounding to the nearest whole
dollar yields a fiscal year 2023 target fee collection amount of
$815,557,629.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ This value was announced on July 13, 2022. See https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/cpi_07132022.htm.
    \9\ See ``Table 1, Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
(CPI-U): U.S. city average, by expenditure category, June 2022'' in
the announcement referenced above.
    \10\ See 86 FR 47696, published August 26, 2021. (https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/08/26/2021-18402/order-making-fiscal-year-2022-annual-adjustments-to-registration-fee-rates).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 6(b)(6)(B) defines the ``baseline estimate of the aggregate
maximum offering prices'' for fiscal year 2023 as ``the baseline
estimate of the aggregate maximum offering price at which securities
are proposed to be offered pursuant to registration statements filed
with the Commission during [fiscal year 2023] as determined by the
Commission, after consultation with the Congressional Budget Office and
the Office of Management and Budget . . . .''
    To make the baseline estimate of the aggregate maximum offering
prices for fiscal year 2023, the Commission is using the methodology it
has used in prior fiscal years and that was developed in consultation
with the Congressional Budget Office and OMB.\11\ Using this
methodology, the Commission determines the ``baseline estimate of the
aggregate maximum

offering price'' for fiscal year 2023 to be $7,398,886,333,730. Based
on this estimate and the fiscal year 2023 target fee collection amount,
the Commission calculates the fee rate for fiscal 2023 to be $110.20
per million. This adjusted fee rate applies to Section 6(b) of the
Securities Act, as well as to Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Exchange
Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ Appendix A explains how we determined the ``baseline
estimate of the aggregate maximum offering prices'' for fiscal year
2023 using our methodology, and then shows the arithmetical process
of calculating the fiscal year 2023 annual adjustment based on that
estimate. The appendix includes the data used by the Commission in
making its ``baseline estimate of the aggregate maximum offering
prices'' for fiscal year 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Effective Dates of the Annual Adjustments

    The fiscal year 2023 annual adjustments to the fee rates applicable
under Section 6(b) of the Securities Act and Sections 13(e) and 14(g)
of the Exchange Act will be effective on October 1, 2022.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 77f(b)(4), 15 U.S.C. 78m(e)(6), and 15 U.S.C.

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

V. Conclusion

    Accordingly, pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act and
Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Exchange Act,\13\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 77f(b), 78m(e), and 78n(g).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is hereby ordered that the fee rates applicable under Section
6(b) of the Securities Act and Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Exchange
Act shall be $110.20 per million effective on October 1, 2022.

    By the Commission.
J. Matthew DeLesDernier,
Deputy Secretary.

Appendix A

    Congress has established a target amount of monies to be
collected from fees charged to issuers based on the value of their
registrations. This appendix provides the formula for determining
such fees, which the Commission adjusts annually. Congress has
mandated that the Commission determine these fees based on the
``aggregate maximum offering prices,'' which measures the aggregate
dollar amount of securities registered with the Commission over the
course of the year. In order to maximize the likelihood that the
amount of monies targeted by Congress will be collected, the fee
rate must be set to reflect projected aggregate maximum offering
prices. As a percentage, the fee rate equals the ratio of the target
amounts of monies to the projected aggregate maximum offering
prices.
    For 2023, the Commission has estimated the aggregate maximum
offering prices by projecting forward the trend established in the
previous decade. More specifically, an auto-regressive integrated
moving average (``ARIMA'') model was used to forecast the value of
the aggregate maximum offering prices for months subsequent to July
2022, the last month for which the Commission has data on the
aggregate maximum offering prices.
    The following sections describe this process in detail.

A. Baseline Estimate of the Aggregate Maximum Offering Prices for
Fiscal Year 2023

    First, calculate the aggregate maximum offering prices (AMOP)
for each month in the sample (July 2012-July 2022). Next, calculate
the percentage change in the AMOP from month to month.
    Model the monthly percentage change in AMOP as a first order
moving average process. The moving average approach allows one to
model the effect that an exceptionally high (or low) observation of
AMOP tends to be followed by a more ``typical'' value of AMOP.
    Use the [estimated moving average] [ARIMA] model to forecast the
monthly percent change in AMOP. These percent changes can then be
applied to obtain forecasts of the total dollar value of
registrations. The following is a more formal (mathematical)
description of the procedure:
    1. Begin with the monthly data for AMOP. The sample spans ten
years, from July 2012 to July 2022.
    2. Divide each month's AMOP (column C) by the number of trading
days in that month (column B) to obtain the average daily AMOP
(AAMOP, column D).
    3. For each month t, the natural logarithm of AAMOP is reported
in column E.
    4. Calculate the change in log(AAMOP) from the previous month as
[Delta]t = log (AAMOPt)-
log(AAMOPt-1). This approximates the percentage change.
    5. Estimate the first order moving average model
[Delta]t = [alpha] + [beta]et-1 +
et, where et denotes the forecast error for
month t. The forecast error is simply the difference between the
one-month ahead forecast and the actual realization of
[Delta]t. The forecast error is expressed as
et = [Delta]t-[alpha]-[beta]et-1.
The model can be estimated using standard commercially available
software. Using least squares, the estimated parameter values are
[alpha] = 0.007860021 and [beta] =0.82732681.
    6. For the month of August 2022 forecast
[Delta]t = 8/2022 = [alpha] +
[beta]et = 7/2022. For all subsequent months, forecast
[Delta]t = [alpha].
    7. Calculate forecasts of log(AAMOP). For example, the forecast
of log(AAMOP) for October 2022 is given by
FLAAMOPt = 10/2022 = log(AAMOPt = 7/2022) +
[Delta]t = 8/2022 + [Delta]t = 9/2022 +
[Delta]t = 10/2022.
    8. Under the assumption that et is normally
distributed, the n-step ahead forecast of AAMOP is given by
exp(FLAAMOPt + [sigma]n\2\/2), where
[sigma]n denotes the standard error of the n-step ahead
forecast.
    9. For October 2022, this gives a forecast AAMOP of $28.053
billion (Column I), and a forecast AMOP of $589.112 billion (Column
J).
    10. Iterate this process through September 2023 to obtain a
baseline estimate of the aggregate maximum offering prices for
fiscal year 2023 of $7,398,886,333,730.

B. Using the Forecasts From A To Calculate the New Fee Rate

    1. Using the data from Table A, estimate the aggregate maximum
offering prices between 10/01/22 and 9/30/23 to be
$7,398,886,333,730.
    2. The rate necessary to collect the target $815,557,629 in fee
revenues required by Section 6(b) of the Securities Act is then
calculated as: $815,557,629 / $7,398,886,333,730 = 0.0001102271.
    3. Round the result to the seventh decimal point, yielding a
rate of 0.0001102 (or $110.20 per million).

[Project No. 10855-000]

Upper Peninsula Power Company; Notice of Availability of
Environmental Assessment

September 17, 2009.
    In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's regulations, 18 CFR part
380, Commission staff have prepared an environmental assessment (EA)
regarding Upper Peninsula Power Company's request to replace the
penstock at the McClure development of the Dead River Hydroelectric
Project (FERC No. 10855) located on the Dead River in Marquette County,
Michigan.
    The EA contains the Commission staff's analysis of the potential
environmental effects of the proposed replacement of the McClure
Penstock and concludes that the proposed penstock replacement, with
appropriate environmental protective measures, would not constitute a
major Federal action that would significantly affect the quality of the
human environment.
    Copies of the EA are available for review in the Public Reference
Room 2-A of the Commission's offices at 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission's

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    Fatigue damage can occur locally, in small areas or structural
design details, or globally, in widespread areas. Multiple-site damage
is widespread damage that occurs in a large structural element such as
a single rivet line of a lap splice joining two large skin panels.
Widespread damage can also occur in multiple elements such as adjacent
frames or stringers. Multiple-site damage and multiple-element damage
cracks are typically too small initially to be reliably detected with
normal inspection methods. Without intervention, these cracks will
grow, and eventually compromise the structural integrity of the
airplane. This condition is known as WFD. It is associated with general
degradation of large areas of structure with similar structural details
and stress levels. As an airplane ages, WFD will likely occur, and will
certainly occur if the airplane is operated long enough without any
intervention.
    The FAA's WFD final rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) became
effective on January 14, 2011. The WFD rule requires certain actions to
prevent structural failure due to WFD throughout the operational life
of certain existing transport category airplanes and all of these
airplanes that will be certificated in the future. For existing and
future airplanes subject to the WFD rule, the rule requires that DAHs
establish a limit of validity (LOV) of the engineering data that
support the structural maintenance program. Operators affected by the
WFD rule may not fly an airplane beyond its LOV, unless an extended LOV
is approved.
    The WFD rule (75 FR 69746, November 15, 2010) does not require
identifying and developing maintenance actions if the DAHs can show
that such actions are not necessary to prevent WFD before the airplane
reaches the LOV. Many LOVs, however, do depend on accomplishment of
future maintenance actions. As stated in the WFD rule, any maintenance
actions

necessary to reach the LOV will be mandated by airworthiness directives
through separate rulemaking actions.
    In the context of WFD, this action is necessary to enable DAHs to
propose LOVs that allow operators the longest operational lives for
their airplanes, and still ensure that WFD will not occur. This
approach allows for an implementation strategy that provides
flexibility to DAHs in determining the timing of service information
development (with FAA approval), while providing operators with
certainty regarding the LOV applicable to their airplanes.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2013-0102, dated May 2, 2013 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for certain Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070
and 0100 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    From service experience, it was concluded that the fuselage
frames, which act as back-up structure for the hook latch fitting
brackets of the large cargo doors, are sensitive to fatigue
cracking. To ensure the continued structural integrity with respect
to fatigue, a repetitive inspection was included in the
Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) of the Instructions for
Continued Airworthiness under tasks 533026-00-03 and 533026-01-03.
    Since those tasks were implemented, it was determined, as part
of a re-evaluation for Widespread Fatigue Damage, that the current
repetitive fatigue inspections in the ALS do not provide a
sufficient level of protection against fatigue-induced cracks.
    This condition, if not corrected, would affect the structural
integrity of the centre fuselage.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
modification of the affected fuselage frames.
    Post-modification inspections will be included in a revision to
the ALS, which will likely be the subject of further [EASA] AD
action.

    You may examine the MCAI on the internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2017-
1182.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI. We are
issuing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and
determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or
develop on other products of the same type design.

FAA's Determination of the Effective Date

    Since there are currently no domestic operators of this product, we
find good cause that notice and opportunity for prior public comment
are unnecessary. In addition, for the reason(s) stated above, we find
that good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than
30 days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public
comment. We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under
the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2017-1182; Product
Identifier 2013-NM-093-AD'' at the beginning of your comments. We
specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic,
environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all
comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD based on
those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Currently, there are no affected U.S.-registered airplanes. This AD
requires contacting the FAA to obtain instructions for addressing the
unsafe condition, and doing the actions specified in those
instructions. Based on the actions specified in the MCAI AD, we are
providing the following cost estimates for an affected airplane that is
placed on the U.S. Register in the future:

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.
    We are 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.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes to
the Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We 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:

II. Background

    Registration review is EPA's periodic review of pesticide
registrations to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the
statutory standard for registration, that is, the pesticide can perform
its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on human
health or the environment. As part of the registration review process,
the Agency has completed a revised interim decision for sodium cyanide,
listed in the Table in Unit IV. Through this program, EPA is ensuring
that each pesticide's registration is based on current scientific and
other knowledge, including its effects on human health and the
environment.

III. Authority

    EPA is conducting its registration review of sodium cyanide, listed
in the Table in Unit IV pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural
Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C.
Section 3(g) of FIFRA provides, among other things, that the
registrations of pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under
FIFRA, a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only
if it meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA
section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance with
widespread and commonly recognized practice, the pesticide product must
perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on
the environment; that is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the
environment, or a human dietary risk from residues that result from the
use of a pesticide in or on food.

IV. What action is the agency taking?

    Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice announces the availability
of EPA's revised interim registration review decisions for sodium
cyanide, shown in the following table. The interim registration review
decision is supported by a rationale included in the docket established
for the chemical.

    The proposed interim registration review decision for sodium
cyanide was posted to the docket and the public was invited to submit
any comments or new information. EPA addressed the comments and/or
information received during the 60-day comment period for the proposed
interim decisions in the discussion for sodium cyanide. Comments from
the 60-day comment period that were received may or may not have
affected the Agency's interim decision. Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c),

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP17-19-000]

Valley Crossing Pipeline, LLC; Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review of the Border Crossing Project

    On November 21, 2016, Valley Crossing Pipeline, LLC (Valley
Crossing) filed an application in Docket No. CP17-19-000 pursuant to
Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act seeking authorization and the issuance
of a Presidential Permit to construct and operate certain natural gas
transmission facilities for the purpose of exporting natural gas
between the United States and Mexico. The proposed project is known as
the Border Crossing Project (Project). The Project would deliver/export
up to 2.6 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas to Mexico to serve
electrical generation plants.
    On December 2, 2016, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(Commission or FERC) issued its Notice of Application for the Project.
Among other things, that notice alerted agencies issuing federal
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and
to reach a final decision on a request for a federal authorization
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's
Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Project. This instant notice
identifies the FERC staff's planned schedule for the completion of the
EA for the Project.

Schedule for Environmental Review

    Issuance of EA June 30, 2017.
    90-day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline September 28, 2017.
    If a schedule change becomes necessary, additional notice will be
provided so that the relevant agencies are kept informed of the
Project's progress.

Project Description

    Valley Crossing proposes to construct and operate an approximately
1,000-foot-long, 42-inch-diameter, natural gas transmission pipeline
segment across the international boundary between the United States and
Mexico that is under the Commission's jurisdiction. The Border Crossing
Project would connect the non-jurisdictional Valley Crossing System
with the Mexican Marina Pipeline. The international boundary crossing
would occur in Texas state waters, approximately 30 miles east of
Brownsville, Texas.

Background

    On January 27, 2017, the Commission issued a Notice of Intent to
Prepare an Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Border Crossing
Project and Request for Comments on Environmental Issues (NOI). The NOI
was sent to federal, state, and local government agencies; elected
officials; and other interested parties. In response to the NOI,

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 amends Class E airspace at Highland Medical Center Heliport,
Scottsboro, AL, by bringing the airport name and coordinates in line
with the FAA's aeronautical database.

History

    On August 16, 2017, the FAA published in the Federal Register (82
FR 38856) Docket No. FAA-2017-0557, a notice of proposed rulemaking to
amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
at Highland Medical Center Heliport, Scottsboro, AL. Interested parties
were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting
written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11B dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class
E airspace designations listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order 7400.11B, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists Class A,
B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 amends Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface within a 6-mile radius of Highland

Medical Center Heliport, Scottsboro, AL, by recognizing the heliport's
name change, (formerly Jackson County Hospital), and adjusting the
geographic coordinates of the heliport to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database.

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
only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified
that this rule, when promulgated, does 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 preparation of an
environmental assessment.

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

Adoption of the Amendment

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