SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-55881; File No. SR-CBOE-2007-60]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change Regarding Fees for the CBOE Stock Exchange

 June 8, 2007
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on May 31, 2007, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``Exchange'' or ``CBOE'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been substantially
prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to modify its fees applicable to the CBOE
Stock Exchange (``CBSX''). The text of the proposed rule change is
available on the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal), at

the Exchange's principal office, and at the Commission's Public
Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The CBSX fee schedule lists the fees applicable to trading on CBSX.
The transaction fees are based on whether the executing member is
``taking'' liquidity or ``making'' liquidity in connection with the
transaction. A taker is charged a rate that varies between $0.26 to
$0.29 per 100 shares executed based on the amount of total volume
executed by that user. A maker receives a rebate of $0.24 per 100
shares, except that Remote Market-Makers and Designated Primary Market-
Makers receive enhanced rebates if they meet certain market quality
bid/ask standards (called Liquidity Provider Guidelines or ``LPGs'').
This filing modifies the LPGs in three respects: (1) The LPGs will be
measured on a daily basis instead of a monthly basis; (2) all Remote
Market-Makers and Designated Primary Market-Makers in a product would
qualify for the enhanced rebate for trades executed during the
measurement period if the LPGs are met for that product for 90% of the
time during the measurement period (i.e., each day); and (3) the
outside quote requirements of the LPGs are being eliminated. The
changes took effect June 1, 2007.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 6(b) of the Act \3\ in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \4\ in particular, in that it is designed
to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and
other charges among its members and other persons using its facilities.

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change establishes or changes a
due, fee, or other charge imposed by the Exchange, it has become
effective upon filing pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \5\
and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \6\ thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission may summarily
abrogate such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such
action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the
protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of
the 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 would establish Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface at Dean Griffin Memorial Airport, Wiggins, MS, in
support of standard instrument approach procedures for IFR operations
at the airport.

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 and be submitted in
triplicate to the address listed above. Commenters wishing the FAA to
acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with
those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the
following statement is made: ``Comments to Docket No. FAA-2020-0155;
Airspace Docket No. 20-ASO-4.'' The postcard will be date/time stamped
and returned to the commenter.
    All communications received before the specified closing date for
comments will be considered before taking action on the proposed rule.
The proposal contained in this notice may be changed in light of the
comments received. A report summarizing each substantive public contact
with FAA personnel concerned with this rulemaking will be filed in the
docket.

Availability of NPRMs

    An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the
internet at https://www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking
documents can also be accessed through the FAA's web page at https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/airspace-amendments/">https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/airspace-amendments/.
    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received, and any final disposition in person in the Dockets
Office (see the ADDRESSES section for the address and phone number)
between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except federal
holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal
business hours at the Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic
Organization, Central Service Center, Operations Support Group, 10101
Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11D, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 8, 2019, and effective
September 15, 2019. FAA Order 7400.11D is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11D lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Dean Griffin Memorial
Airport, Wiggins, MS. This action would enhance safety and the
management of IFR operations at the airport.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11D, dated August 8, 2019, and effective September 15,
2019, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
    FAA Order 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, is
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. 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 proposed 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

    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.

Airworthiness Directives; International Aero Engines, LLC Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain International Aero Engines, LLC (IAE LLC) Model PW1124G1-JM,
PW1127G-JM, PW1127GA-JM, PW1129G-JM, PW1130G-JM, PW1133G-JM, and
PW1133GA-JM engines. This AD was prompted by a manufacturer
investigation which revealed that Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul
(MRO) shops were misinterpreting accepted knife edge coating wear
limits on the high-pressure compressor (HPC) rear hub. This AD requires
replacement of the HPC rear hub with a part eligible for installation.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: This AD is effective November 1, 2023.
    Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written data, views, or arguments
about this final rule. Send your comments to an address listed under
ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2023-1996 and Project Identifier
AD-2022-01361-E'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful
comments reference a specific portion of the final rule, explain the
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this final rule because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in
the

following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to
regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. The
agency will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal
contact received about this final rule.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this AD contain commercial
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to
this AD, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public
docket of this AD. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Mark
Taylor, Aviation Safety Engineer, FAA, 2200 South 216th Street, Des
Moines, WA 98198. Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for
this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA was notified by the manufacturer that MRO shops
misinterpreted the serviceable limits of HPC rear hubs on certain IAE
LLC Model PW1124G1-JM, PW1127G-JM, PW1127GA-JM, PW1129G-JM, PW1130G-JM,
PW1133G-JM, and PW1133GA-JM engines, and accepted knife edge coating
wear that was beyond the design intent. The manufacturer indicated that
the intended limit on knife edge coating is no more than 25-percent top
coat loss, but shops misinterpreted the limit as no more than 25-
percent bond coat loss. Acceptance of coating loss beyond the
manufacturer's intended limit may cause heat-induced cracking at the
forward and aft knife edge seals and uncontained separation of the HPC
rear hub. This condition, if not addressed, could result in uncontained
debris release, damage to the engine, damage to the airplane, in-flight
shutdown, and loss of the airplane. The FAA is issuing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these products.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this AD because the agency has determined the
unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in
other products of the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Pratt & Whitney Service Bulletin PW1000G-C-72-00-
0209-00A-930A-D, Issue No: 002, dated June 20, 2023, which provides the
list of affected serial numbers for the HPC rear hub. This service
information is reasonably available because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course of business or by the means
identified in ADDRESSES.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires replacement of the HPC rear hub with a part
eligible for installation.

Justification for Immediate Adoption and Determination of the Effective
Date

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and
comment procedures for rules when the agency, for ``good cause,'' finds
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to
the public interest.'' Under this section, an agency, upon finding good
cause, may issue a final rule without providing notice and seeking
comment prior to issuance. Further, section 553(d) of the APA
authorizes agencies to make rules effective in less than thirty days,
upon a finding of good cause.
    The FAA justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of
this rule because no domestic operators use this product. It is
unlikely that the FAA will receive any adverse comments or useful
information about this AD from any U.S. operator. Accordingly, notice
and opportunity for prior public comment are unnecessary, pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). In addition, for the foregoing reasons, the FAA
finds that good cause exists pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making
this amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) do not
apply when an agency finds good cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt
a rule without prior notice and comment. Because FAA has determined
that it has good cause to adopt this rule without prior notice and
comment, RFA analysis is not required.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 0 engines installed on
airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this 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

    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, and
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.

(d) Subject

    Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC) Code 7230, Turbine Engine
Compressor Section.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by a manufacturer investigation which
revealed that Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul shops were
misinterpreting accepted knife edge coating wear limits. The FAA is
issuing this AD to prevent heat-induced cracking at the forward and
aft knife edge seals and uncontained separation of the HPC rear hub.
The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in uncontained
debris release, damage to the engine, damage to the airplane, in-
flight shutdown, and loss of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Required Actions

    At the next engine shop visit after the effective date of this
AD, replace the HPC rear hub with a part eligible for installation.

(h) Definitions

    (1) For the purpose of this AD, a ``part eligible for
installation'' is:
    (i) Any HPC rear hub with an S/N that does not appear in Table 2

Amendment 39-17071; AD 2012-11-08]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; WACO Classic Aircraft Corporation
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
WACO Classic Aircraft Corporation Models 2T-1A, 2T-1A-1, and 2T-1A-2
airplanes. This AD requires inspection of the front and rear horizontal
stabilizer spar assemblies with replacement of parts as necessary. This
AD was prompted by cracking of the horizontal stabilizer spars, which
could lead to failure of the horizontal spars with consequent loss of
control. We are issuing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: This AD is effective June 20, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of June 20,
2012.
    We must receive comments on this AD by July 20, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    In the last two years, there have been three incidents of
horizontal stabilizer failure on WACO Classic Aircraft Corporation
Models 2T-1A, 2T-1A-1, and 2T-1A-2 airplanes. Cracks originated from
around the circumference of the right stabilizer front spar and, in one
incident, the stabilizer separated from the aircraft. This condition,
if not corrected, could result in failure of the horizontal stabilizer
spars with consequent loss of control.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed WACO Classic Aircraft Corporation, Great Lakes
Aircraft, Service Bulletin No. SB-GL12-01R, Revision IR, dated January
25, 2012. The service information describes procedures for inspecting
the front and rear horizontal stabilizer spar assemblies with
replacement as necessary.

FAA's Determination

    We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires inspecting the front and rear horizontal
stabilizer spar assemblies with replacement of parts as necessary. The
AD also requires sending the initial inspection results to the Chicago
ACO.

Interim Action

    We consider this AD interim action. After evaluating the inspection
results, we may take further AD action.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public justifies
waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because
failure of the horizontal stabilizer spars could result in loss of
control. Therefore, we find that notice and opportunity for prior
public comment are impracticable and 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 was not preceded by notice and an opportunity for public
comment. However, we invite you to send any written data, views, or
arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under
the ADDRESSES section. Include the docket number FAA-2012-0578 and
Directorate Identifier 2012-CE-019-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 because of 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

    We estimate that this AD affects 134 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 rear horizontal stabilizer      $85 per hour =
 spar assemblies.                $340.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary replacements
that would be required based on the results of the inspection. We have
no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these
replacements:

                                               On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per
                    Action                                Labor cost               Parts cost        product
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replacement of the front and rear spar         92 work-hours x $85 per hour =           $2,200          $10,020
 stabilizer assembly parts (accumulative cost   7,820.
 for all four spar assemblies).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    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) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.

Instructions for Completing the Annual Assessment Form   Baseline Data Submittal The Annual Assessment Form serves two purposes, allowing: 1. New partners to submit baseline data ( within 6 months of registering). 2. Existing partners to report their annual waste reduction efforts.

WasteWise encourages you to submit your Annual Assessment Form electronically via the Member Services section of the WasteWise Web site, < www. epa. gov/ wastewise>. For those without Internet access, please send a hard copy to EPA via mail   WasteWise Program, c/ o ERG, 2200 Wilson Blvd, Suite 400, Arlington, VA, 22201 3324   or fax to ( 703) 841 1440.

Who Submits Baseline Data? EPA asks new WasteWise partners to submit baseline waste reduction data, allowing WasteWise to more accurately track your progress and facilitate your waste reduction efforts. This baseline report is due to WasteWise six months after you join the program.

Why Submit Baseline Data? A systematic review of your facility and operations ( also referred to as a waste assessment or waste audit) can provide your organization with a much greater understanding of the types and amounts of waste generated. By establishing this baseline and reporting it to WasteWise, you will not only be equipped to measure future progress of your waste reduction efforts, but also be able to effectively focus on reduction areas.

Tools Available to Assist You. To help you prepare your baseline data, WasteWise developed a " Baseline Tracking Sheet" as part of the Online Toolkit available in the Member Services area of the WasteWise Web site at < www. ergweb. com/ waste/ private/ baseline. htm>. This tool will help track your organization's waste prevention, recycling, and buy recycled activities, calculate an estimate of your annual waste reduction efforts, and estimate associated cost savings. [ It includes instructions and five worksheets, entitled " Waste Material," " Waste Prevention," " Recycling," " Buy Recycled," and " Summary."] After completing the various sections, the summary will provide the information required to complete the WasteWise Annual Assessment Form. Using this information, WasteWise can help you identify new opportunities for cost savings and waste reduction, as well as assess your achievements resulting from your participation in WasteWise.

How Do I Fill Out This Form? Section I: Participant Information

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Project No. 14726-000]

Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe; Notice of Preliminary Permit
Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications

    On November 3, 2015, the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe (Pyramid Lake)
filed an application for a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f)
of the Federal Power Act, proposing to study the feasibility of the
Prosser Creek Hydroelectric Project (project) to be located at the
existing Bureau of Reclamation's Prosser Creek Dam on Prosser Creek,
near the City of Truckee, Nevada County, California. The sole purpose
of a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant the permit holder
priority to file a license application during the permit term. A
preliminary permit does not authorize the permit holder to perform any
land-disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands or waters
owned by others without the owners' express permission.
    Prosser Creek Reservoir has a usable storage capacity of 29,800
acre-feet at a normal maximum elevation of 5,741.2 feet, of which up to
20,000 acre-feet is required for flood control purposes between
November and June annually. The proposed project would utilize the
existing intake structure in Prosser Creek Reservoir, the two 9.5-foot
arched concrete conduits, and the discharge channel on the downstream
side of the BOR Prosser Creek Dam. No modifications would be made to
these existing structures.
    The proposed project would also consist of the following new
structures: (1) An approximately 32-foot-wide by 62-foot-long by 33-
foot-high powerhouse located on the east side of the primary discharge
channel outlet containing two Francis generating units, one smaller
790-kilowatt unit and one larger 2.7-megawatt (MW) unit for a total
rated capacity of 3.49 MW; (2) a pressure-rated, concrete, flow-control
structure located at the end of the existing low-level outlet that
would include control valves to regulate flows to the powerhouse or
direct flows to the existing discharge channel during a powerhouse
outage; (3) a 48-inch-diameter penstock that conveys water from the
existing outlet structures to the powerhouse and directs flow to one or
both of the generating units via a common header and control valves;
(4) a 50-foot-long tailrace channel extending from the proposed
powerhouse to meet the existing outlet channel; (5) a channel training
wall leaving the powerhouse on the landside of the tailrace channel;
(6) a 650-foot-long, 69-kilovolt (kV) transmission line and electrical
substation to interconnect the proposed project to the existing, nearby
69-kV transmission line; (7) and a small parking area at the
powerhouse.
    Pyramid Lake proposes to develop the proposed project in
conformance with the operation of Prosser Creek Dam by the Bureau of
Reclamation under the terms of the Truckee River Operating Agreement
(TROA) and would generate electricity using the existing flow releases
under the terms of the TROA. Pyramid Lake does not propose to alter the
timing, condition or the amount of releases from Prosser Creek
Reservoir or impair any of the current functions supported by operation
of this existing multi-purpose water resources project. The estimated
annual generation of the Prosser Creek Hydroelectric Project would be
7.4 gigawatt-hours.

Airworthiness Directives; Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH Model DA 42 airplanes. This AD results
from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued 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 an uncommanded engine shutdown during flight due to
failure of the propeller regulating valve caused by hot exhaust gases
escaping from fractured engine exhaust pipes. We are issuing this AD to
require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective February 22, 2017.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of February 22,
2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Diamond Aircraft
Industries GmbH Model DA 42 airplanes. The NPRM was published in the
Federal Register on October 25, 2016 (81 FR 73360). The NPRM proposed
to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products and was based
on mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by
an aviation authority of

another country. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is
the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community,
has issued AD No. 2016-0156R1, dated November 23, 2016 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''). The revised MCAI states:

    Two cases were reported of uncommanded engine in-flight shutdown
(IFSD) on DA 42 aeroplanes. Subsequent investigations identified
these occurrences were due to failure of the propeller regulating
valve, caused by hot exhaust gases coming from fractured engine
exhaust pipes. The initiating cracks on the exhaust pipes were not
detected during previous inspections, since those exhaust pipes are
equipped with non-removable heat shields that do not allow
inspection for certain sections of the exhaust pipe.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to further cases of
IFSD or overheat damage, possibly resulting in a forced landing,
with consequent damage to the aeroplane and injury to occupants.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Diamond Aircraft
Industries (DAI) developed an exhaust pipe without a directly
attached integral heat shield that allows visual inspection over the
entire exhaust pipe length. DAI issued Mandatory Service Bulletin
(MSB) 42-120 and relevant Working Instruction (WI) WI-MSB 42-120,
providing instructions to install the modified exhaust pipes. As an
interim measure, an additional bracket was designed to hold the
exhaust pipe in place in case of a pipe fracture.
    Consequently, EASA issued AD 2016-0156, requiring replacement of
the exhaust pipes with pipes having new design, and prohibiting
(re)installation of the previous design pipes.
    Since that AD was issued, cracks were identified on modified
exhaust pipes during an inspection. Furthermore, it was determined
that the additional brackets provide a level of safety equivalent to
the modified exhaust pipes. Consequently, DAI revised MSB 42-120,
allowing installation of the additional brackets as alternative to
the installation of the modified exhaust pipes.
    For the reasons described above, this AD is revised to reduce
the Applicability, excluding certain post-mod aeroplanes, to allow
only installation of the additional brackets as final solution and
to remove the prohibition of reinstallation of unmodified exhaust
pipes.

The MCAI can be found in the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=FAA-2016-9317-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this AD as proposed except for the
changes discussed above. We have determined that these changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH Mandatory Service
Bulletin MSB 42-120, dated June 24, 2016, Mandatory Service Bulletin
MSB 42-120/1, dated November 10, 2016, and Work Instruction WI-MSB 42-
120, dated June 24, 2016. In combination, this service information
describes procedures for replacing the exhaust pipes with exhaust pipes
having a new design. This service information 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
of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 130 products of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take the following to comply with the
requirements of this AD:
    It will take about 1 work-hour per product to comply with the
installation of additional exhaust clamps required by this AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about
$125 per product.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S.
operators for the installation of additional exhaust clamps to be
$27,300, or $210 per product.
    It will take about 4 work-hours per product to comply with the
exhaust pipe replacement required by this AD. The average labor rate is
$85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $1,990 per product.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S.
operators for the exhaust pipe replacement requirement to be $302,900,
or $2,330 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 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 this AD:
    (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),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.
