ADDRESSES:  To ensure that comments on the information collection are
received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed to the Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer,
FAX:<PHONE_NUMBER>, or e-mailed to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>All
comments should be identified with the OMB control number 0910-0131.
Also include the FDA docket number found in brackets in the heading of
this document.

Information Management, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr.,
PI50-400B, Rockville, MD 20850,<PHONE_NUMBER>,
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.

Agreement for Shipment of Devices for Sterilization--21 CFR 801.150(e)
(OMB Control Number 0910-0131)--Extension

    Under sections 501(c) and 502(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 351(c) and 352(a)), nonsterile
devices that are labeled as sterile but are in interstate transit to a
facility to be sterilized are adulterated and misbranded. FDA
regulations in Sec.  801.150(e) (21 CFR 801.150(e)) establish a control
mechanism by which firms may manufacture and label medical devices as
sterile at one establishment and ship the devices in interstate
commerce for sterilization at another establishment, a practice that
facilitates the processing of devices and is economically necessary for
some firms. Under Sec.  801.150(e)(1), manufacturers and sterilizers
may sign an agreement containing the following: (1) Instructions for
maintaining accountability of the number of units in each shipment; (2)
acknowledgment that the devices that are nonsterile are being shipped
for further processing; and (3) specifications for sterilization
processing. This agreement allows the manufacturer to ship misbranded
products to be sterilized without initiating regulatory action and
provides FDA with a means to protect consumers from use of nonsterile
products. During routine plant inspections, FDA normally reviews
agreements that must be kept for 2 years after final shipment or
delivery of devices (Sec.  801.150(a)(2)). The respondents to this
collection of information are device manufacturers and contact
sterilizers. FDA's estimate of the reporting burden is based on actual
data obtained from industry over the past several years where there are
approximately 90 firms subject to this requirement. It is estimated
that each of these firms on the average prepares 20 written agreements
each year. This estimate varies greatly, from 1 to 100, because some
firms provide sterilization services on a part time basis for only one
customer while others are large facilities with many customers. The
average time required to prepare each written agreement is estimated to
be 4 hours. This estimate varies depending on whether the agreement is
the initial agreement or an annual renewal, on the format each firm
elects to use, and on the length of time required to reach agreement.
The estimate applies only to those portions of the written agreement
that pertain to the requirements imposed by this regulation. The
written agreement generally also includes contractual agreements that
are a customary and usual business practice. On the average, the total
annual recordkeeping burden is 7,200 hours (90 firms x 20 agreements x
4 hours). The

recordkeeping requirements of Sec.  801.150(a)(2) consist of making
copies and maintaining the actual reporting requests which were
required under the reporting section of this collection. To fulfill
this requirement, FDA estimates it will take about 30 minutes to copy
each package, for a total of 900 recordkeeping hours and includes
$55,800 operating and maintenance costs.
    In the Federal Register of February 18, 2010 (75 FR 7276), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

    Due to a clerical error, the operating and maintenance costs that
appeared in a document published in the Federal Register of February
18, 2010, were incorrect. There are actually no operating and
maintenance costs associated.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2008-0649; Directorate Identifier 2008-CE-038-AD;
Amendment 39-15646; AD 2008-17-08]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; DG Flugzeugbau GmbH Model DG-500MB
Powered Sailplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. 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:

    A DG-500MB experienced, after the engine shutdown, an
uncommanded retraction of its powerplant.
    Investigations revealed that some bolts of the extension
retraction mechanism had

fractured because of fatigue stress due to increasing push-pull
loads acting on incorrectly tightened screws.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to damage of the
propeller and the fuselage, thereby reducing the structural
integrity of the sailplane.

We are issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: This AD becomes effective September 23, 2008.
    On September 23, 2008, the Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed
in this AD.

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://
www.regulations.gov or in person at Document Management Facility, U.S.
Department of Transportation, Docket Operations, M-30, West Building
Ground Floor, Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC
20590.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gregory Davison, Aerospace Engineer,
FAA, Small Airplane Directorate, 901 Locust, Room 301, Kansas City,
Missouri 64106; telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products.
That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on June 13, 2008 (73 FR
33743). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    A DG-500MB experienced, after the engine shutdown, an
uncommanded retraction of its powerplant.
    Investigations revealed that some bolts of the extension
retraction mechanism had fractured because of fatigue stress due to
increasing push-pull loads acting on incorrectly tightened screws.
    This condition, if not corrected, could lead to damage of the
propeller and the fuselage, thereby reducing the structural
integrity of the sailplane.
    To address this unsafe condition, this Airworthiness Directive
mandates the replacement of eight bolts, the four connecting the
fork 5M203 to the 5M204 adapter and those connecting the adapter
5M204 to the spindle drive, by new ones of higher strength and, a
rework of the coupling of the 5M203 fork to the 5M204 adapter as
well as the coupling of the 5M204 adapter to the spindle drive, by
glueing the parts together, in addition to the pre-existing bolts.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

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 available data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed.

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 required 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 AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 4 products of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take about 3 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate
is $80 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $63 per product.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD on U.S.
operators to be $1,212, or $303 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 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 AD and placed it in the AD Docket.

Examining the AD Docket

    You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://
www.regulations.gov; or in person at the Docket Management Facility
between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays. The AD docket contains the NPRM, the regulatory evaluation,
any comments received, and other information. The street address for
the Docket Office (telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>) is in the ADDRESSES
section. Comments will be available in the AD docket shortly after
receipt.

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R09-OAR-2014-0615; FRL-9916-95-Region 9]

Revisions to the California State Implementation Plan, Placer
County Air Pollution Control District

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking direct
final action to approve a revision to the Placer County Air Pollution
Control District (PCAPCD) portion of the California State
Implementation Plan (SIP). This revision concerns oxides of nitrogen
(NOX) emissions from natural gas-fired water heaters, small
boilers, and process heaters. We are approving a local rule that
regulates these emission sources under the Clean Air Act (CAA or the
Act).

DATES: This rule is effective on December 8, 2014 without further
notice, unless EPA receives adverse comments by November 6, 2014. If we
receive such comments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the
Federal Register to notify the public that this direct final rule will
not take effect.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments, identified by docket number EPA-R09-OAR-
2014-0615, by one of the following methods:
    1. Federal eRulemaking Portal: www.regulations.gov. Follow the on-
line instructions.
    2. Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    3. Mail or deliver: Andrew Steckel (Air-4), U.S. Environmental

I. The State's Submittal

A. What rule did the State submit?

    Table 1 lists the rule we are approving with the dates that it was
adopted by the local air agency and submitted by the California Air
Resources Board.

                                            Table 1--Submitted Rules
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
              Local agency                 Rule No.           Rule title              Amended        Submitted
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PCAPCD..................................        247  Natural Gas-Fired Water            02/13/14        05/13/14
                                                      Heaters, Small Boilers and
                                                      Process Heaters.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On July 18, 2014, EPA determined that the submittal for PCAPCD Rule
247 met the completeness criteria in 40 CFR Part 51 Appendix V, which
must be met before formal EPA review.

B. Are there other versions of this rule?

    There are no previous versions of Rule 247 in the SIP, although the
PCAPCD adopted an earlier version of this rule on October 10, 2013.
CARB did not submit that version to us.

C. What is the purpose of the submitted rule?

    NOX helps produce ground-level ozone, smog and
particulate matter, which harm human health and the environment.
Section 110(a) of the CAA requires States to submit regulations that
control NOX emissions. PCAPCD Rule 247 establishes
NOX limits for water heaters, boilers, and process heaters.
EPA's technical support document (TSD) has more information about this
rule.

II. EPA's Evaluation and Action

A. How is EPA evaluating the rule?

    Generally, SIP rules must be enforceable (see CAA section 110(a)),
must not interfere with applicable requirements concerning attainment
and reasonable further progress or other CAA requirements (see CAA
section 110(l)), and must not modify certain SIP control requirements
in nonattainment areas without ensuring equivalent or greater emissions
reductions (see CAA section 193). CAA section 172(c)(1) requires
nonattainment areas to implement all reasonably available control
measures (RACM), including such reductions in emissions from existing
sources in the area as may be obtained through the adoption, at a
minimum, of reasonably available control technology (RACT), as
expeditiously as practicable.\1\ In ozone nonattainment areas
classified as moderate or above, the SIP must require RACT for each
category of sources covered by a Control Techniques Guidelines (CTG)
document as well as each major source of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) or nitrogen oxides (NOX) (see CAA sections 182(b)(2)
and (f)). The PCAPCD regulates an ozone nonattainment area classified
as severe for the 1-hour, 1997 8-hour and 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS (see
40 CFR Part 81.305), so RACT applies to this area. PCAPCD Rule 247 does
not, however, regulate a group of sources covered by a CTG document, or
any source that emits above the major source threshold of 25 tons per
year for NOX in this area (see section 182(d) and (f)(1)).
Therefore, the section 182 NOX RACT requirement does not
apply to PCAPCD Rule 247.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ EPA generally takes action on a RACM demonstration as part
of our action on the State's attainment demonstration for the
relevant NAAQS, based on an evaluation of the control measures
submitted as a whole and their overall potential to advance the
applicable attainment date in the area.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In PM2.5 nonattainment areas classified as moderate or
above, the SIP must include provisions to assure the implementation of
RACM for the control of PM2.5 no later than 4 years after
designation of the area to moderate (see CAA section 189(a)(1)).
Portions of PCAPCD are classified moderate nonattainment for the 2006
PM2.5 NAAQS (see 40 CFR Part 81.305), so the RACM
requirement in CAA section 189(a)(1) also applies to this area.
    Guidance and policy documents that we use to evaluate
enforceability, RACM and RACT requirements consistently include the
following:
    1. ``State Implementation Plans; General Preamble for the
Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990,'' 57
FR 13498 (April 16, 1992); 57 FR 18070 (April 28, 1992).
    2. ``State Implementation Plans; Nitrogen Oxides Supplement to the
General Preamble; Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 Implementation of
Title I; Proposed Rule,'' (the NOX Supplement), 57 FR 55620,
November 25, 1992.
    3. ``Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and
Deviations,'' EPA, May 25, 1988 (the Bluebook).
    4. ``Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule
Deficiencies,'' EPA Region 9, August 21, 2001 (the Little Bluebook).
    5. ``Alternative Control Techniques Document--NOX
Emissions from Industrial/Commercial/Institutional (ICI) Boilers'' EPA,
March 1994.
    6. ``Determination of Reasonably Available Control Technology and
Best Available Retrofit Control Technology for Industrial,
Institutional, and Commercial Boilers, Steam Generators, and Process
Heaters,'' CARB, July 18, 1991.

B. Does the rule meet the evaluation criteria?

    We believe this rule is consistent with the relevant policy and
guidance regarding enforceability, RACT and SIP revisions. The TSD has
more information on our evaluation.

C. EPA Recommendations to Further Improve the Rule

    The TSD describes additional rule revisions that we recommend for
the next time the local agency modifies the rule.

D. Public Comment and Final Action

    As authorized in section 110(k)(3) of the Act, EPA is fully
approving the submitted rule because we believe it satisfies all
applicable requirements. We do not think anyone will object to this
approval, so we are finalizing it without proposing it in advance.
However, in the Proposed Rules section of this Federal Register, we are
simultaneously proposing approval of the same submitted rule. If we
receive adverse comments by November 6, 2014, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register to notify the public that the direct
final approval will not take effect and we will address the comments in
a subsequent final action based on the proposal. If we do not receive
timely adverse comments, the direct final approval will be effective
without further notice on December 8, 2014. This will incorporate the
rule into the federally enforceable SIP.
    Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment,
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve State
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by State law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely

affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address disproportionate human health or environmental effects with
practical, appropriate, and legally permissible methods under Executive
Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by December 8, 2014. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. Parties with objections to this direct final
rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel
notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the Proposed
Rules section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an
immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so
that EPA can withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in
the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements (see section 307(b)(2)).

1. Comments/questions if any regarding CTG London Meeting WPs

Comments were to be posted by May 20th. The Group, by means of silence,
did not report any comments or questions regarding WP05 and WP06.

2. EASA proposals on “Application Process for Exemptions to NOx
Production Cut-off Requirements”.

Werner walked the group through, line by line, the EASA draft proposal
“ETM generic application process for exemptions to NOx emissions
production cut-off standards”. The proposal, in outline format, was in
five parts:

Scope

Application

Review Process

Approval

Registration and Communication

This draft outline was presented with a request to review the approach,
categories and preliminary questions which need to be addressed and
answered as development proceeds. Although many of the questions and
issues concerning Process would be affected by Criteria, it was
suggested that initial discussion be focused on this outline alone and
questions relative to Criteria be held until the suggested Criteria in
Agenda item 3 be reviewed the FAA/EPA.

Ed informed the group that the FAA Certification Office was reviewing
the FAA Certification Process and he would get back to the group as soon
as information became available.

A number of questions and concerns were voiced which will require future
consideration:

Would this outline be something to be included in the ETM to provide
detailed guidance on some generic process for Certification Officers? An
immediate observation to the question was however the guidance material
was handled in the ETM there would need to be a link from the Annex to
the ETM.

The situation with spare and replacement engines is confused both in
definition (are replacement engines spares?) and in sorting out how they
can be handled within the regulatory framework.

Discussion of spares led to a lengthy discussion about the proposal to
identify exempt engines by name plate and in some fashion in the ICAO
Data Bank.

How are we going to bring in other, non WG3 authorities before we go to
far down the road, e.g., Russia, China, Japan, India, Brazil? Experience
with gaining cooperation from some of these countries has not been good.

3. FAA / EPA suggested “Criteria for Annex 16 and ETM Text for
Exemptions for Production Cut-Off”.

The group assessed the FAA/EPA proposed Criteria as submitted for
discussion. The discussion followed the same questions and concerns
listed above and needn’t be repeated.

ACTION: Steve is looking for feedback to EASA in the next couple of
weeks to keep to a reasonable schedule given the WG3 and SG time table.
Ed and Bryan are in agreement and targeting the WG3 meeting in
September.

4. Appendix 3 Attachment A – Specification for HC Analyzer.

Discussion continues about concerns with the FID temperature difference
between SAE ARP 1256C and the Annex. E-31 has taken this under
advisement and anticipates making changes in the next revision of 1256 a
process which is currently underway under the sponsorship of Dave
Christie, vice chair of E-31. Werner, Jim Elwood and Dave have been in
contact and, in the expectation of changes to 1256, are considering new
text for the ETM which would provide for an acceptable range of FID
temperatures (say 160 °C to 210 °C) with some appropriate stability
limits (say ± 10 °C). The inclusion of stability limits remains under
discussion. E-31, in the current version of ARP 1256C, removed the
requirement for specific stability limits, which were in the original
version and which are in the Annex, reasoning that the effect is small
and will be controlled via the span drift requirements. While this is
true in an operational sense, i.e., it is unlikely to be an observable
problem, it is technically incorrect. Span drift and the changes in
output due to variations in FID temperature are independent variables
and should be recognized as such. Replacement of stability limits
eliminates confusion. Additionally, setting stability limits would
provide clarification to what is meant by Set (and maintain) the
temperature of the FID and add would provide for consistency with the
analyzer specifications of commercially available Total Hydrocarbon
Analyzers.

Action: Werner, Jim and Dave to continue the discussion of the need for
stability limits, agree to a temperature range consistent with modern
hydrocarbon analyzers current practice and the intent of the Standard
and draft new ETM text for group review.

5. Appendix 3 Attachment B – Specification for CO and CO2 Analyzers

No comments yet on the draft. Jim commented that the E-31 effort to
revise ARP1256C would include reviewing the specifications for all of
the analytical instruments including CO and CO2 and NOx.

6. New Business

No discussion because of time limitations but Ed has some questions
about the proposed ETM text for Chapter 3 on SST and will bring them up
later.

Next telcon scheduled for July 21

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 31401; Amdt. No. 3984]

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 amends, suspends, or removes Standard Instrument
Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures 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 for the 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 December 3, 2021. 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 December 3, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matter incorporated by reference in 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;

and Airspace Group, Flight Technologies and Procedures Division, Flight
Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration. Mailing Address:
FAA Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Flight Procedures and Airspace
Group, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Registry Bldg. 29, Room 104,
Oklahoma City, OK 73169. Telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends 14 CFR part 97 by amending
the referenced SIAPs. The complete regulatory description of each SIAP
is listed on the appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National
Flight Data Center (NFDC)/Permanent Notice to Airmen (P-NOTAM), and is
incorporated by reference under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14
CFR 97.20. The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and the
need for a special format make their verbatim publication in the
Federal Register expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use
the regulatory text of the SIAPs, but 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 contained on FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR
sections, and specifies the SIAPs and 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 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 and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as amended in the
transmittal. For safety and timeliness of change considerations, this
amendment incorporates only specific changes contained for each SIAP
and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as modified by FDC permanent NOTAMs.
    The SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, as modified by FDC
permanent NOTAM, and contained in this amendment are based on criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these changes to SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts.
    The circumstances that created the need for these SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments require making them effective in less than
30 days.
    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 these
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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Seleda Perryman or Theda Kenney,
Directorate of Standards and Guidance, OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor;
telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of the continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information
collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that
information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs)
is minimal, the collection instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA's estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH Act or for developing
information regarding the causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also
requires that OSHA obtain such information with minimum burden upon
employers, especially those operating small businesses, and to reduce
to the maximum extent feasible unnecessary duplication of effort in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
    The following sections describe who uses the information collected
under each requirement, as well as how they use it. The 1,3-Butadiene
requires employers to monitor employee exposure to 1,3-Butadiene,
develop and maintain compliance and exposure goal programs if employee
exposures to BD are above the standard's permissible exposure limits or
action level, label respirator filter elements to indicate the date and
time it is first installed on the respirator, establish medical
surveillance programs to monitor employee health and to provide
employees with information about their exposures, and the health
effects of exposure to BD.

II. Special Issues for Comment

    OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues:
     Whether the proposed information collection requirements
are necessary for the proper performance of the agency's functions to
protect workers, including whether the information is useful;
     The accuracy of OSHA's estimate of the burden (time and
costs) of the information collection requirements, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     The quality, utility, and clarity of the information
collected; and
     Ways to minimize the burden on employers who must comply;
for example, by using automated or other technological information
collection, and transmission techniques.

III. Proposed Actions

    OSHA is requesting that OMB extend the approval of the information
collection requirements contained in 1,3 Butadiene Standard. The agency
requests to maintain previously approved burden hours calculations for
this proposed information collections request (ICR), which is 887
burden hours.
    OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to this
notice and will include this summary in the request to OMB to extend
the approval of the information collection requirements.

    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Title: The 1,3 Butadiene Standard (29 CFR 1910.1051).
    OMB Control Number: 1218-0170.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profits; Not-for-profit
organizations; Federal Government; State, Local, or Tribal Government
    Number of Respondents: 57.
    Number of Responses: 3,609.
    Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
    Average Time per Response: Varies.
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 887.
    Estimated Cost (Operation and Maintenance): $96,576.

Comment Info: =================

General Comment:Dear Mr. Zeller:
I am writing as an individual consumer to request an extension of the comment period for the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") Proposed Rule Deeming Tobacco Products to be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Family Smoking and Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (the "Proposed Rule") published at 79 Fed. Reg. 23,142 and Federal Register No. 2014-09491. On behalf of myself, I am requesting that the comment period for the Proposed Rule be extended by the FDA for an additional 105 days, from its current 75-day period, to 180 days.
The Proposed Rule raises a number of significant issues and questions that are important and relevant to me, as a consumer of products that are proposed for regulation under the Proposed Rule. The Proposed Rule asks about a hundred different questions I might want to respond to. I want to provide my thoughts and comments on many of these issues, but my time to devote to researching and providing thoughtful comments on these important questions is limited. I have already spent many hours researching and dissecting these issues, but they take time. I know that the FDA took many years to even come up with the Proposed Rule, so I do not think it is at all unreasonable to allow the public a mere six months to comment on it. This is our only opportunity, as consumers, to provide our feedback.
I started smoking when I was 12 years old and continued until I discovered electronic cigarettes. I have been smoke free for almost 2 years now thanks to       e-smokes. All of my previous attempts at quitting tobacco failed miserably.
I feel very strongly about e-cigarettes as an alternative to combustible cigarettes. Quite simply, I firmly believe that they saved my life. I wish to provide you with my personal story, as well as science- and evidence-based responses to your questions so that you can take my comment into account. I realize that the FDA has the authority under 21 CFR 10.40 to extend this time frame and that the FDA has exercised this authority on numerous occasions in the past. I would therefore ask that you do so here, so that all stakeholders have the opportunity to provide their comments on this proposed regulation.
I appreciate your consideration of my request and am happy to discuss this issue with you further.

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by
Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.9Z, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, and effective
September 15, 2015. FAA Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.9Z 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 modifying class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Napa County Airport, Napa,
CA, by removing an irregular shaped area located approximately 20 miles
southwest of the airport. This airspace area is discontinuous from the
airspace surrounding Napa County Airport and is not necessary to
support IFR operations. This proposal also would update the airport
geographic coordinates to lat. 38[deg]12'48'' N., long. 122[deg]16'51''
W., to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, and effective September 15,
2015, 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.

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, 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 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.
