SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Background: The FMCSA is authorized to register certain for-hire
Mexico-domiciled long-haul motor carriers of regulated commodities
under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 13902 and the North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA) motor carrier access provision. The Form OP-
1(MX) is used by FMCSA to register those Mexico-domiciled motor
carriers. It requests information on the applicant's identity,
location, familiarity with safety requirements, and type of proposed
operations. This ICR is being revised due to a Final Rule titled, ``the
Unified Registration System,'' (78 FR 52608), dated August 23, 2013,
that will incorporate all registration form requirements included in
this ICR, except the Form OP-1(MX), into the Form MCSA-1 in the OMB
Control Number 2126-0051, ``FMCSA Registration/Updates,'' ICR effective
October 23, 2015. The Form OP-1(MX) was excluded from the Form MCSA-1
because its information collection requirements are beyond the scope of
the Unified Registration System Final Rule.
    Title: Licensing Applications for Motor Carrier Operating
Authority.
    OMB Control Number: 2126-0016.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently-approved information
collection.
    Respondents: Certain Mexico-domiciled motor carriers.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 12.
    Estimated Time per Response: 4 hours to complete Form OP-1 (MX).
    Expiration Date: October 31, 2015.
    Frequency of Response: Other (as needed).
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 48 hours [12 annual Form OP-(MX)
responses x 4 hours to complete each response = 48].
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed
collection is necessary for the performance of FMCSA's functions; (2)
the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways for the FMCSA to enhance
the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and
(4) ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the
quality of the information

collected. The Agency will summarize or include your comments in the
request for OMB's clearance of this ICR.

    Issued under the authority of 49 CFR 1.87 on: March 26, 2015.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Railroad Administration

[Docket Number FRA-2016-0055]

Petition for Waiver of Compliance

    In accordance with part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), this provides the public notice that by a document dated April
1, 2016, Union Pacific Railroad (UP) has petitioned the Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA) for a waiver of compliance from certain
provisions of the Federal railroad safety regulations contained at 49
CFR part 229--Railroad Locomotive Safety Standards. FRA assigned the
petition Docket Number FRA-2016-0055.
    Specifically, UP is seeking an exemption, until October 1, 2018,
from the requirements of 49 CFR 229.135(b)(5) and (6), which require
the use of a crash-hardened memory module as specified in Appendix D to
part 229.
    Title 49 CFR 229.135(b)(5) and (6) allow for a phased-in approach
for upgrading the memory modules. Railroads are not required to replace
functioning modules installed prior to the availability of crash-worthy
modules (CHM) until the locomotives are remanufactured. Similarly,
outside of the remanufacturing process, railroads have been permitted
to use replacement modules that do not meet Appendix D requirements if
the modules were originally manufactured prior to 2010.
    As background, in September 2011, UP submitted a Request for
Proposal to multiple vendors to procure a Locomotive Data Acquisition
Recording System (LDARS) to meet FRA's requirement to calibrate/
synchronize the event recorder and Positive Train Control (PTC) data
feeds into a CHM. UP awarded the contract in March 2012 for the
development of a crash-worthy LDARS in accordance with the Federal
requirements. These modules would capture and synchronize existing FRA-
required event-recorder data and FRA-required PTC information. In
addition, UP specified LDARS be capable of recording event-recorder
data feeds from a variety of locomotive control systems and data
collection devices and integrating with currently installed event
recorders. The vendor promised a scheduled delivery date of April 2014.
However, UP did not receive a production-capable LDARS unit until
September 2014. UP purchased and had planned to deploy 1,500 LDARS
systems starting in the fourth quarter of 2014 but due to technology
issues with LDARS, the purchased units had to be shipped back to the
vendor for rework, and subsequent production of LDARS units stopped.
The vendor has certified LDARS as being U.S. Department of
Transportation crashworthy.
    As a result of these unanticipated issues, UP experienced
significant delay in accepting and installing LDARS products. There
were several issues contributing to the delay, specifically, issues
with the memory module firmware and LSI interface, resulting in gaps in
the recorded data and gaps in the video and audio feed. These issues
have required UP to ``shop'' the locomotives for a third time for
installation of PTC onboard components.
    Of the 5,656 planned PTC locomotives UP intends to replace, roughly
1,100 event recorders are not capable of integration with LDARS. There
are 2,000 crash-hardened integrated data recorders that will be
replaced with LDARS to meet FRA calibration requirements.
    UP has more than 2,500 locomotives that have all of the equipment
installed for PTC with the exception of LDARS. After UP qualifies
LDARS, installation will be scheduled on the 90-day periodic
maintenance inspection cycle for the 2,500 locomotives which are PTC
ready, except for LDARS that are in the fleet today. The balance will
be installed as UP continues to equip through September 2018, roughly
1,100 locomotives per year.
    A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications
concerning the petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov and in person at the U.S. Department of
Transportation's (DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE., W12-140, Washington, DC 20590. The Docket Operations
Facility is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except
Federal Holidays.
    Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings
by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party
desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in
writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for
their request.
    All communications concerning these proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number and may be submitted by any of the following
methods:
     Web site: http://www.regulations. gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail: Docket Operations Facility, U.S. Department of
Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., W12-140, Washington, DC

     Hand Delivery: 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Room W12-140,
Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
    Communications received by August 29, 2016 will be considered by
FRA before final action is taken. Comments received after that date
will be considered as far as practicable.
    Anyone is able to search the electronic form of any written
communications and comments received into any of our dockets by the
name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the document,
if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.).
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments from the
public to better inform its processes. DOT posts these comments,
without edit, including any personal information the commenter
provides, to www.regulations.gov, as described in the system of records
notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at www.dot.gov/privacy.

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 31134; Amdt. No. 3747]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or removes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs) for operations at certain
airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption
of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective June 20, 2017. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of June 20, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters incorporated by reference the
amendment is as follows:

For Examination

    1. U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Ops--M30, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue SE., West Bldg., Ground Floor, Washington, DC 20590-0001.
    2. The FAA Air Traffic Organization Service Area in which the
affected airport is located;
    3. The office of Aeronautical Navigation Products, 6500 South
MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169 or,
    4. The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). For
information on the availability of this material at NARA, call 202-741-
6030, or go to: http://www.archives.gov/federal_register/code_of_federal_regulations/ibr_locations.html.

Availability

    All SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs are available online free
of charge. Visit the National Flight Data Center at nfdc.faa.gov to
register. Additionally, individual SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and ODP
copies may be obtained from the FAA Air Traffic Organization Service
Area in which the affected airport is located.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas J. Nichols, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AFS-420), Flight Technologies and Programs Divisions,
Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration, Mike
Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, OK 73125)
Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends Title 14 of the Code of
Federal Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by establishing,
amending, suspending, or removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and/or ODPS.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP and its associated
Takeoff Minimums or ODP for an identified airport is listed on FAA form
documents which are incorporated by reference in this amendment under 5
U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 CFR part Sec.  97.20. The
applicable FAA forms are FAA Forms 8260-3, 8260-4, 8260-5, 8260-15A,
and 8260-15B when required by an entry on 8260-15A.
    The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, their complex
nature, and the need for a special format make publication in the
Federal Register expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use
the regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead
refer to their graphic depiction on charts printed by publishers of
aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages of incorporation by
reference are realized and publication of the complete description of
each SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the types of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their
applicable effective dates. This amendment also identifies the airport
and its location, the procedure, and the amendment number.

Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference

    The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
    The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in the amendatory language for part
97 of this final rule.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP as Amended in the
transmittal. Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and textual ODP amendments
may have been issued previously by the FAA in a Flight Data Center
(FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency action of immediate
flight safety relating directly to published aeronautical charts.
    The circumstances that created the need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after publication is provided.
    Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the affected airports. Because of
the close

and immediate relationship between these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and contrary to the
public interest and, where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good
cause exists for making some SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
    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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Commission Guidance on Pay Ratio Disclosure

AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission.

ACTION: Interpretation.

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

SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission is publishing
interpretive guidance to assist registrants in preparation of their pay
ratio disclosures required by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

DATES: Effective Date: September 27, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Fieldsend, Special Counsel, or

Division of Corporation Finance; 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    In 2015, the Commission adopted a rule \1\ to implement the pay
ratio disclosure requirement \2\ mandated by Section 953(b) of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.\3\ In doing
so, the Commission stated its belief that, in order for the data points
provided by the rule to be of use to investors, the pay ratio rule
``should be designed to allow shareholders to better understand and
assess a particular registrant's compensation practices and pay ratio
disclosures rather than to facilitate a comparison of this information
from one registrant to another.'' \4\ Consistent with this view, the
Commission stated that it sought to provide flexibility in a manner
that would ``reduce costs and burdens for registrants while preserving
what we perceive to be the purpose and intended benefits'' of the
statutorily mandated disclosure.\5\ Under the final rule, registrants
must provide pay ratio disclosure for the first fiscal year beginning
on or after January 1, 2017, which means that registrants will begin
making pay ratio disclosures in early 2018.

    In light of the approaching compliance date and concerns raised
about the implementation of the disclosure requirement,\6\ this release
provides additional guidance to assist registrants in their compliance
efforts. In addition, the Commission staff is publishing guidance about
the use of statistical sampling to assist registrants in determining
their median employee for purposes of the pay ratio disclosure.\7\

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

II. Commission Guidance

A. Use of Reasonable Estimates, Assumptions, and Methodologies and
Statistical Sampling

    The pay ratio rule affords significant flexibility to registrants
in determining appropriate methodologies to identify the median
employee and calculating the median employee's annual total
compensation.\8\ Required disclosure may be based on a registrant's
reasonable belief; use of reasonable estimates, assumptions, and
methodologies; and reasonable efforts to prepare the disclosures.\9\
Specifically, the rule permits registrants to use reasonable estimates
to identify the median employee, including by using statistical
sampling and a consistently applied compensation measure (such as
payroll or tax records).\10\ The rule also allows registrants to use
reasonable estimates in calculating the annual total compensation or
any elements of annual total compensation for employees.\11\ The rule
further provides that if a registrant changes its methodology or its
material assumptions, adjustments, or estimates, and the effects are
significant, the registrant must briefly describe the change and the
reasons for the change.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See Pay Ratio Release, supra note 1, at 50135--50138.
    \9\ See, e.g., Instruction 2 and Instruction 4 to Item 402(u) of
Regulation S-K (17 CFR 229.402(u)).
    \10\ See Instruction 4 to Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.
    \11\ Id.
    \12\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In light of the use of estimates, assumptions, adjustments, and
statistical sampling permitted by the rule, pay ratio disclosures may
involve a degree of imprecision. This has led some commenters to
express concerns about compliance uncertainty and potential
liability.\13\ In our view, if a registrant uses reasonable estimates,
assumptions or methodologies, the pay ratio and related disclosure that
results from such use would not provide the basis for Commission
enforcement action unless the disclosure was made or reaffirmed without
a reasonable basis or was provided other than in good faith.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See, e.g., letters from BRT, Davis Polk, and NAM.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Use of Internal Records

    Item 402(u) requires a registrant to disclose the median of the
annual total compensation of all its employees excluding its principal
executive officer.\14\ We are providing guidance as to the use of
existing internal records, such as tax or payroll records, to make this
determination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \14\ 17 CFR 229.402(u)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Non-U.S. Employees
    The final rule defines the term ``employee'' to include U.S.
employees and employees located in a jurisdiction outside the United
States (``non-U.S.

employees''). In the Pay Ratio Release, we acknowledged that the
inclusion of non-U.S. employees would raise compliance costs for
multinational companies.\15\ To address concerns about compliance
costs, the rule permits registrants to exempt non-U.S. employees where
these employees account for 5% or less of the registrant's total U.S.
and non-U.S. employees, with certain limitations.\16\ We are clarifying
that a registrant may use appropriate existing internal records, such
as tax or payroll records, in determining whether the 5% de minimis
exemption is available.\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ See Pay Ratio Release, supra note 1, at 50122--50133.
    \16\ 17 CFR 229.402(u)(4)(ii). See also Pay Ratio Release, supra
note 1, at 50124-50125 (noting that registrants using the de minimis
exemption are required to provide certain disclosures).
    \17\ See, e.g., Instruction 1 to Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K
(17 CFR 229.402(u)) and Pay Ratio Release, supra note 1, at 50119--
50120 (indicating that determination of the median employee may be
made on any date within the last three months of the registrant's
last completed fiscal year).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Median Employee
    We also believe that the use of existing internal records may, in
many circumstances, be appropriate in identifying a registrant's median
employee. Instruction 4 to Item 402(u) permits a registrant to identify
its median employee using a consistently applied compensation measure,
such as information derived from the registrant's tax or payroll
records. We are clarifying that a registrant may use internal records
that reasonably reflect annual compensation to identify the median
employee, even if those records do not include every element of
compensation, such as equity awards widely distributed to employees.
    We recognize that, when calculating total compensation in
accordance with Item 402(c)(2)(x) for the identified median employee
that the registrant identified using a consistently applied
compensation measure based on internal records, the registrant may
determine that there are anomalous characteristics of the identified
median employee's compensation that have a significant higher or lower
impact on the pay ratio. The Commission discussed this issue in the
adopting release specifically and noted that, in such a circumstance,
instead of concluding that the consistently applied compensation
measure the registrant used was unsuitable to identify its median
employee, the registrant may substitute another employee with
substantially similar compensation to the original identified median
employee based on the compensation measure it used to select the median
employee.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ See Pay Ratio Release, supra note 1, at 50137-50138
(providing that the registrant must disclose the substitution as
part of its brief description of the methodology it used to identify
the median employee).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

C. Independent Contractors

    For purposes of Item 402(u), the term ``employee'' or ``employee of
the registrant'' is defined as ``an individual employed by the
registrant or any of its consolidated subsidiaries.'' \19\ Item
402(u)(3) excludes from the definition those workers who are employed,
and whose compensation is determined, by an unaffiliated third party
but who provide services to the registrant or its consolidated
subsidiaries as independent contractors or ``leased'' workers.\20\ In
the Pay Ratio Release, the Commission indicated that excluding these
workers is appropriate, because registrants generally do not control
the level of compensation that these workers are paid.\21\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ 17 CFR 229.402(u)(3).
    \20\ Id.
    \21\ See Pay Ratio Release, supra note 1, at Section 50165-
50166.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Some commenters have expressed concerns about the application of
the rule's definition of ``employee.'' \22\ Because registrants already
make determinations as to whether a worker is an employee or
independent contractor in other legal and regulatory contexts, such as
for employment law or tax purposes, some commenters suggested that the
Commission should allow registrants to use widely recognized tests to
determine who is an ``employee'' for purposes of the rule.\23\ Such a
test might, for example, be drawn from guidance published by the
Internal Revenue Service with respect to independent contractors.\24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \22\ See, e.g., letters from Davis Polk, FSR, SCG, and Insurance
Coalition.
    \23\ See, e.g., letters from Davis Polk and Insurance Coalition.
    \24\ See, e.g., Publication 15-A Employer's Supplemental Tax
Guide (2017).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Item 402(u)(3) makes clear that an ``employee'' is an individual
employed by the registrant.\25\ The provision in Item 402(u)(3)
indicating that the definition of ``employee'' does not include workers
who are employed, and whose compensation is determined, by an
unaffiliated third party describes one category of workers that is
expressly excluded from the definition of ``employee'' under the rule.
The provision was not intended to serve as an exclusive basis for
determining whether a worker is an employee of the registrant.
Accordingly, we believe it would be consistent with Item 402(u) for a
registrant to apply a widely recognized test under another area of law
that the registrant otherwise uses to determine whether its workers are
employees.\26\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ 17 CFR 229.402(u)(3).
    \26\ Because we believe most widely recognized tests likely will
consider how compensation is determined as a factor in identifying a
registrant's employees, we believe these tests generally would
provide a reasonable means of complying with Item 402(u). See, e.g.,
note 24. The description of the methodology required by Instruction
4 of Item 402(u) requires a registrant to include an explanation of
any material assumptions and adjustments used.

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Corporation AE 2100D2, AE
2100D2A, AE 2100D3, and AE 2100J Turboprop Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
Rolls-Royce Corporation (RRC) AE 2100D2, AE 2100D2A, AE 2100D3, and AE
2100J turboprop engines with certain propeller gearbox (PGB) shaft-and-
carrier assemblies installed. These engines are U.S. type-certificated
but as of the effective date of this AD are only installed on military
airplanes. This AD requires monitoring a certain population of PGB
shaft-and-carrier assemblies for vibration during flight, and
borescope-inspecting the PGB shaft for cracks if vibration is
experienced. This AD would also require removing the affected
population of PGB shaft-and-carrier assemblies from service and
installing serviceable PGB shaft-and-carrier assemblies. This AD
results from a report of a crack found in the forward cone of a PGB
shaft in an RRC AE 2100D3 turboprop engine that was removed from
service due to high vibration. We are issuing this AD to prevent
separation of the propeller from the airplane, which could result in
injury, and damage to the airplane.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In March of 2007, the Chicago Aircraft
Certification Office received a report of a crack found in the forward
cone of a PGB shaft. The PGB shaft was installed in an RRC AE 2100D3
turboprop engine that was removed from service due to high vibration.
RRC investigated and determined that a certain population of PGB shaft-
and-carrier assemblies could fail due to cracks developing in the
forward shaft cone. The affected population, manufactured before June
2005, could have a high stress concentration in the bottom of a certain
drilled hole, due to improper surface finish. RRC issued alert service
bulletins to borescope-inspect the affected population of PGB shafts
for cracks. Based on the inspection results, we determined that AD
action is necessary. These engines are U.S. type-certificated, but as
of the effective date of this AD are only installed on military
airplanes. Failure to inspect the PGB shaft forward cone for cracks
could result in separation of the propeller from the airplane, which
could result in injury, and damage to the airplane.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed and approved the technical contents of RRC Service
Bulletin (SB) No. AE 2100D2-A-72-073, Revision 1, dated February 18,
2008, RRC SB No. AE 2100D3-A-72-256, Revision 1, dated February 18,
2008, and RRC SB No. AE 2100J-A-72-071, Revision 1, dated February 18,
2008. Those SBs list the affected population of PGB shaft-and-carrier
assemblies by serial number (SN).

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD

    Although no airplanes that are registered in the United States use
these turboprop engines, the possibility exists that the engines could
be used on airplanes that are registered in the United States in the
future. The unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or
develop on other engines of the same type design. We are issuing this
AD to prevent separation of the propeller from the airplane, which
could result in injury, and damage to the airplane. This AD requires:
     Monitoring the affected population of PGB shaft-and-
carrier assemblies for vibration during flight;
     Borescope-inspecting the forward cone of the PGB shaft for
cracking if vibration is experienced; and
     Removing the affected PGB shaft-and-carrier assembly at
the next shop visit for PGB inspection or repair. Replacing the
affected PGB shaft-and-carrier assembly with a shaft and carrier
assembly that is eligible for installation, is terminating action for
the vibration monitoring required by this AD.
    You must use the service information described previously to
determine SN applicability of PGB shaft-and-carrier assemblies.

FAA's Determination of the Effective Date

    Since there are no domestic operators of these RRC AE 2100D2, AE
2100D2A, AE 2100D3, and AE 2100J turboprop engines as of the effective
date of this AD, notice and opportunity for public comment before
issuing this AD are unnecessary. A situation exists that allows the
immediate adoption of this regulation.

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 us any written relevant data,
views, or arguments regarding this AD. Send your comments to an address
listed under ADDRESSES. Include ``AD Docket No. FAA-2009-0082;
Directorate Identifier 2008-NE-42-AD'' in the subject line of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of the rule that might
suggest a need to modify it.
    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
with FAA personnel concerning this AD. Using the search function of the
Web site, anyone can find and read the comments in any of our dockets,

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 have determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. 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 summary of the costs to comply with this AD and
placed it in the AD Docket. You may get a copy of this summary at the
address listed under ADDRESSES.
