Airworthiness Directives; McDonnell Douglas Corporation Model MD-
90-30 Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Model MD-90-30 airplanes. This proposed AD would require repetitive
high frequency eddy current inspections for cracking on the hinge
bearing lugs of the left and right sides of the center section ribs of
the horizontal stabilizer, and related investigative and corrective
actions if necessary. This proposed AD results from reports of cracks
found on either the left or right (or in one case, both) sides of the
center section ribs of the horizontal stabilizer. We are proposing this
AD to detect and correct cracking in the hinge bearing lugs of the
center section of the left and right ribs, which could result in
failure of the hinge bearing lugs and consequent inability of the
horizontal stabilizer to sustain the required loads.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 15,
2010.

Discussion

    We have received seven reports of cracks found on either the left
or right (or in one case, both) sides of the center section ribs of the
horizontal stabilizer. These cracks were located on the aft face of the
hinge bearing lugs on the horizontal stabilizer. Cracks were reported
on MD-90 airplanes that had accumulated 9,051 to 21,183 total flight
hours, and 8,939 to 20,893 total flight cycles. The cause of the
cracking has not been determined. Undetected cracking in the hinge
bearing lugs of the center section of the left and right ribs, if not
corrected, could result in failure of the hinge bearing lugs and
consequent inability of the horizontal stabilizer to sustain the
required loads.

Relevant Service Information

    We have reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-55A016,
Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010. Boeing Alert Service Bulletin
MD90-55A016, Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010, describes procedures
for doing repetitive high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for
cracking on the hinge bearing lugs on the aft face of the horizontal
stabilizer center section on the left and right ribs, and doing
applicable related investigative and corrective actions. The related
investigative action is measuring the crack length. The corrective
actions include blending out cracks and replacing the rib of the center
section of the horizontal stabilizer. For airplanes on which a blend
out is done, Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-55A016, Revision 1,
dated February 17, 2010, describes procedures for doing repetitive HFEC
inspections for cracking of the blend out. For airplanes on which the
replacement is done, Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-55A016,
Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010, describes procedures for doing
repetitive HFEC inspections for cracking of the replaced horizontal
stabilizer rib.
    For the initial HFEC inspection, Boeing Alert Service Bulletin
MD90-55A016, Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010, specifies a
compliance time of before the accumulation of 7,200 total flight cycles
or within 1,505 flight cycles after the original issue date of Boeing
Alert Service Bulletin MD90-55A016, Revision 1, dated February 17,
2010, whichever occurs later.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.
This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified in
the service information described previously, except as discussed under
``Differences Between the Proposed AD and Service Bulletin.''

Differences Between the Proposed AD and Service Bulletin

    For Condition 2A specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-
55A016, Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010, the service bulletin
specifies doing repetitive inspections of the blend out but did not
identify corrective actions when cracks are found during those
inspections. This proposed AD would require replacing the horizontal
stabilizer center section rib when cracks are found during inspections
of the blend out. We have coordinated this difference with Boeing.
    For Condition 2B specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-
55A016, Revision 1, dated February 17, 2010, the service bulletin
specifies doing repetitive inspections of the replaced horizontal
stabilizer center section rib at intervals not to exceed 1,680 flight
cycles. This proposed AD would require doing an inspection of the
replaced horizontal stabilizer center section rib and all applicable
corrective actions and repetitive inspections (for Condition 1, the
repetitive interval is 1,680 flight cycles; for Condition 2A, the
repetitive interval is 400 flight cycles).

Interim Action

    We consider this proposed AD interim action. The manufacturer is
currently developing a modification that will address the unsafe
condition identified in this AD. Once this modification is developed,
approved, and available, we might consider additional rulemaking.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 16 airplanes of U.S.
registry. We also estimate that it would take about 2 work-hours per
product to comply with this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85
per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this
proposed AD to the U.S. operators to be $2,720, or $170 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866,
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), and
    3. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Notice of Expansion Application

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hereby
gives notice that Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc., (ITSNA) has
applied for expansion of its recognition as a Nationally Recognized
Testing Laboratory (NRTL). ITSNA's expansion request covers the use of
additional test standards. OSHA's current scope of recognition for
ITSNA may be found in the following informational Web page: http://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/its.html.
    OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization has met
the legal requirements in section 1910.7 of Title 29, Code of Federal
Regulations (29 CFR 1910.7). Recognition is an acknowledgment that the
organization can perform independent safety testing and certification
of the specific products covered within its scope of recognition and is
not a delegation or grant of government authority. As a result of
recognition, employers may use products properly approved by the NRTL
to meet OSHA standards that require testing and certification.
    The Agency processes applications by an NRTL for initial
recognition or for expansion or renewal of this recognition following
requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix requires
that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in
processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the
application and provides its preliminary finding and, in the second
notice, the Agency provides its final decision on the application.
These notices set forth the NRTL's scope of recognition or
modifications of that scope. We maintain an informational Web page for
each NRTL, which details its scope of recognition. These pages can be
accessed from our Web site at http://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
index.html.
    The most recent application processed by OSHA specifically related
to the recognition of ITSNA granted an expansion of recognition, and
the final notice for this expansion was published on November 4, 2003
(see 68 FR 62479). OSHA, however, issued a notice modifying the scope
of a number of NRTLs to replace or delete withdrawn test standards (see
70 FR 11273, March 8, 2005). ITSNA was one of those NRTLs.
    The current addresses of the ITSNA facilities (sites) already
recognized by OSHA are:

General Background on the Expansion Application
    ITSNA has submitted an application, dated August 25, 2005, for
renewal and expansion of its recognition (see Exhibit 48-1). OSHA is
still processing ITSNA's renewal, but, based upon discussions with the
NRTL, the expansion is being treated separately. For the expansion,
ITSNA requested the addition of 56 test standards to its scope;
however, one of these standards is already included in ITSNA's scope
and another has been withdrawn by the standards developing
organization. The NRTL Program staff has determined that the remaining
54 standards are ``appropriate test standards.'' Therefore, OSHA would
approve 54 test standards for the expansion. In connection with the
expansion, OSHA staff performed an on-site visit of the NRTL's Cortland
site (its headquarters facility) in May 2006. Based on this visit, the
staff recommends expansion of the ITSNA recognition to include the 54
test standards (see Exhibit 48-4). ITSNA seeks expansion of its
recognition for testing and certification of products for demonstration
of conformance to the following test standards:

Assemblies for Electrical Measurement and Test.
* See section below titled Addition of New Test Standards.
    The designations and titles of the above test standards were
current at the time of the preparation of this notice.
    OSHA's recognition of ITSNA, or any NRTL, for a particular test
standard is limited to equipment or materials (i.e., products) for
which OSHA standards require third-party testing and certification
before use in the workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also
covers any product(s) for which OSHA does not require such testing and
certification, an NRTL's scope of recognition does not include that
product(s).
    A test standard listed above may be approved as an American
National Standard by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
However, for convenience, we use the designation of the standards
developing organization for the standard as opposed to the ANSI
designation. Under our procedures, any NRTL recognized for an ANSI-
approved test standard may use either the latest proprietary version of
the test standard or the latest ANSI version of that standard. You may
contact ANSI to find out whether or not a test standard is currently
ANSI-approved.

Addition of New Test Standards

    The series UL 60947 test standards listed above are new to the NRTL
Program and are considered by the NRTL Program staff to be comparable
to UL 1558 and the related standards ANSI C37.20.1 and ANSI C37.51,
which are referenced in UL 1558 and used in conjunction with that
standard. Upon publication of the final notice for this expansion, OSHA
would add the above UL 60947 test standards to the scope of recognition
of any NRTL currently recognized for UL 1558, ANSI C37.20.1, and ANSI
C37.51. This action is consistent with the OSHA NRTL Program policy
permitting NRTLs to request or OSHA to provide recognition for
comparable test standards (i.e., other appropriate test standards
covering comparable product testing) in situations when a standard has
been replaced or withdrawn by the standards developing organization.

Preliminary Finding

    ITSNA has submitted an acceptable request for expansion of its
recognition as an NRTL. Our review of the application file, the
assessor's memo, and other pertinent documents indicate that ITSNA can
meet the requirements, as prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7, for the
expansion to include the 54 additional test standards. This preliminary
finding does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of the
application.
    OSHA welcomes public comments, in sufficient detail, as to whether
ITSNA has met the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for the expansion of
its recognition as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory. Your
comments should consist of pertinent written documents and exhibits.
Should you need more time to comment, you must request it in writing,
including reasons for the request. OSHA must receive your written
request for extension at the address provided above no later than the
last date for comments. OSHA will limit any extension to 30 days,
unless the requester justifies a longer period. We may deny a request
for extension if it is not adequately justified. You may obtain or
review copies of the ITSNA request, the on-site review report, other
pertinent documents, and all submitted comments, as received, by
contacting the Docket Office, Room N2625, Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, at the above address.
Docket No. OSHA-2007-0039 (formerly NRTL1-89) contains all materials in
the record concerning the ITSNA application.
    The NRTL Program staff will review all timely comments and, after
resolution of issues raised by these comments, will recommend whether
to grant the ITSNA expansion request. The Assistant Secretary will make
the final decision on granting this request and, in making this
decision, may undertake other proceedings that are prescribed in
Appendix A to 29 CFR section 1910.7. OSHA will publish a public notice
of this final decision in the Federal Register.

Notice of Voluntary Termination of Recognition of Entela, Inc.

    Entela, Inc., (ENT) was recognized by OSHA as an NRTL on July 26,
1994 (see 59 FR 37997). The Agency renewed ENT's recognition on July 3,
2001, for a period of five years ending July 3, 2006 (see 66 FR 35278).
However, on May 12, 2004 (see Exhibit 48-2), ENT provided notification
of its acquisition by the

parent company of ITSNA. In a February 10, 2006, letter (see Exhibit
48-3), ITSNA requested that OSHA terminate the recognition of ENT. OSHA
has accepted this request, and ENT is no longer recognized as an NRTL.
Section II.D of Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7 provides that the Agency
shall publish a Federal Register notice to note the voluntary
termination of a recognition, and OSHA is doing so in this notice. OSHA
shall not take any further action on this matter.
    In its February 2006 letter, ITSNA also included a request
pertaining to the Entela mark, which now appears along with other marks
on OSHA's Web page of typical registered certification marks used by
each NRTL. ITSNA provided documentation showing its exclusive right to
use the Entela mark and requested the mark be shown as one used by
ITSNA for its NRTL approvals. OSHA will modify its Web page
accordingly.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 22nd day of January, 2008.
Edwin G. Foulke, Jr.,
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health.

Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
     ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    Under section 4 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is reevaluating existing pesticides to
ensure that they meet current scientific and regulatory standards. EPA
has completed a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) for the
pesticide resmethrin under section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA. EPA has
determined that the data base to support reregistration is
substantially complete and that products containing resmethrin are
eligible for reregistration, provided the risks are mitigated in the
manner described in the RED. Upon submission of any required product
specific data under section 4(g)(2)(B) and any necessary changes to the
registration and labeling (either to address concerns identified in the
RED or as a result of product specific data), EPA will make a final
reregistration decision under section 4(g)(2)(C) for products
containing resmethrin.
    EPA must review tolerances and tolerance exemptions that were in
effect when the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) was enacted in
August 1996, to ensure that these existing pesticide residue limits for
food and feed commodities meet the safety standard established by the
new law. Tolerances are considered reassessed once the safety finding
has been made or a revocation occurs. EPA has reviewed and made the
requisite safety finding for the resmethrin tolerances.
    EPA is applying the principles of public participation to all
pesticides undergoing reregistration and tolerance reassessment. The
Agency's Pesticide Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration; Public
Participation Process, published in the Federal Register on May 14,
2004, (69 FR 26819)(FRL-7357-9) explains that in conducting these
programs, EPA is tailoring its public participation process to be
commensurate with the level of risk, extent of use, complexity of
issues, and degree of public concern associated with each pesticide.
Due to its uses, risks, and other factors, resmethrin was reviewed
through the modified 4-Phase process. Through this process, EPA worked
extensively with stakeholders and the public to reach the regulatory
decisions for resmethrin.
    The reregistration program is being conducted under Congressionally
mandated time frames, and EPA recognizes the need both to make timely
decisions and to involve the public. The Agency is issuing the
resmethrin RED for public comment. This comment period is intended to
provide an additional opportunity for public input and a mechanism for
initiating any necessary amendments to the RED. All comments should be
submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES, and must be received by EPA
on or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the
Agency Docket for resmethrin. Comments received after the close of the
comment period will be marked ``late.'' EPA is not required to consider
these late comments.
    The Agency will carefully consider all comments received by the
closing date and will provide a Response to Comments Memorandum in the
Docket and regulations.gov. If any comment significantly affects the
document, EPA also will publish an amendment to the RED in the Federal
Register. In the absence of substantive comments requiring changes, the
resmethrin RED will be implemented as it is now presented.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended directs that, after submission
of all data concerning a pesticide active ingredient, the Administrator
shall determine whether pesticides containing such active ingredient
are eligible for reregistration, before calling in product specific
data on individual end-use products and either reregistering products
or taking other ``appropriate regulatory action.''
    Section 408(q) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA),
21 U.S.C. 346a(q), requires EPA to review tolerances and exemptions for
pesticide residues in effect as of August 2, 1996, to determine whether
the tolerance or exemption meets the requirements of section 408(b)(2)
or (c)(2) of FFDCA. This review is to be completed by August 3, 2006.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The North Carolina Department of Transportation has awarded a
contract to American Bridge Company of Virginia Beach, Virginia to
perform bridge maintenance on the U.S. 421 Fixed Bridge crossing the
Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, mile 295.6, at Carolina Beach, North
Carolina. The contract provides for cleaning, painting, and steel
repair to commence on December 20, 2012 with a completion date of
October 31, 2013. The contractor will utilize a 40 foot by 60 foot
sectional barge as a work platform and for equipment staging. The Coast
Guard believes that a safety zone is needed to provide a safety buffer
to transiting vessels as bridge repairs present potential hazards to
mariners and property due to reduction of horizontal clearance.

C. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    As a result of the potential hazards, the Coast Guard proposes to
establish a temporary safety zone that would encompass the waters
directly under the U.S. 421 Fixed Bridge crossing the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway, mile 295.6, at Carolina Beach, North Carolina
(34[deg]03'21'' N, 077[deg]53'58'' W). The safety zone would be in
effect from 8 a.m.

December 20, 2012 through 8 p.m. October 31, 2013. During this period
the Coast Guard would require a one hour notification to the work
supervisor for passage through the U.S. 421 Fixed Bridge along the
Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, mile 295.6, Carolina Beach, North
Carolina. The bridge notification requirement would apply during the
maintenance period for vessels requiring a horizontal clearance of
greater than 60 feet.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on a number of these statutes or executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review,
as supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders. This rule does not
restrict traffic from transiting the designated portion of the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway, it imposes a one hour notification to ensure the
waterway is clear of impediment to allow passage to vessels requiring a
horizontal clearance of greater than 60 feet.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered the impact of this proposed rule on small entities. The
Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this proposed rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. This proposed rule would affect the following entities,
some of which may be small entities: The owners or operators of
commercial tug and barge companies, recreational and commercial fishing
vessels intending to transit the specified portion of Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway from 8 a.m. December 20, 2012 through 8 p.m.
October 31, 2013.
    This safety zone would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons.
Although the safety zone will apply to this section of the Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway, vessel traffic will be able to request passage
by providing a one hour advanced notification to the work supervisor.
Before the effective period, the Coast Guard will issue maritime
advisories widely available to the users of the waterway.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what
degree this rule would economically affect it.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect
your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you
have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT, above. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any
policy or action of the Coast Guard.

4. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule will not call for a new collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520.).

5. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has 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. We have analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and
determined that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

7. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would not cause a taking of private property or
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize
litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

10. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13045,
Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and would not
create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might
disproportionately affect children.

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

12. Energy Effects

    This proposed rule is not a ``significant energy action'' under
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use because it is
not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and
is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply,
distribution, or use of energy. The Administrator of the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a
significant energy action. Therefore, it does not

require a Statement of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211.

13. Technical Standards

    This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction
M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and
have made a preliminary determination that this action is one of a
category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human environment. This proposed rule

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Notice of Intent To Rule on Disposal of Aeronautical Property at
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, Hebron, KY (CVG)

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration is requesting public
comment on a request by Kenton County Airport Board, to release of land
(4.44 acres) at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport from
federal obligations.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 30, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Comments on this notice may be emailed to the FAA at the
following email address: FAA/Memphis Airports District Office, Attn:
Jamal Stovall, Community Planner<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    In addition, one copy of any comments submitted to the FAA must be
mailed or delivered to Ms. Candace S. McGraw, CEO, Kenton County
Airport Board at the following address: 77 Comair Blvd., Erlanger, KY
41018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jamal Stovall, Community Planner,
Federal Aviation Administration, Memphis Airports District Office,
2600, Thousand Oaks Boulevard, Suite 2250, Memphis, TN 38118-2482,
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(901) 322-8185. The application may be reviewed
in person at this same location, by appointment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA proposes to rule and invites public
comment on the request to release property for disposal at Cincinnati/
Northern Kentucky International Airport, 2939 Terminal Drive, Hebron,
KY 41048, under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). The FAA
determined that the request to release property at Cincinnati/Northern
Kentucky International Airport (CVG) submitted by the Sponsor meets the
procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the
release of these properties does not and will not impact future
aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the request, in
whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the publication of
this notice.
    The request consists of the following:
    The Kenton County Airport Board is proposing the release of airport
property totaling 4.44 acres, more or less. The Kenton County Airport
Board proposes to sell six parcels of airport land totaling 6.032 acres
located on the northwest side of CVG along Petersburg Road, KY20 in
Boone County, Kentucky. Three of the six parcels (referenced on the
current Exhibit A as 8013 Lot 14, 8077 Lot 15, and 8088 Lots 17&18)
were purchased with Airport Improvement Plan (AIP) funds and are
subject to this release. The three aforementioned AIP funded parcels
account for approximately 4.44 acres of the 6.032 acres being sold by
the Board. The future use of the property is an access road for an
industrial development to the north of the subject parcels. Portions of
the parcels were previously

exchanged with the State of Kentucky as part of the relocation of
Petersburg Road, KY 20 during the construction of Runway 18R/36L. The
release of land is necessary to comply with Federal Aviation
Administration Grant Assurances that do not allow federally acquired
airport property to be used for non-aviation purposes. The sale of the
subject property will result in the land at Cincinnati/Northern
Kentucky International Airport (CVG) being changed from aeronautical to
non-aeronautical use and release the lands from the conditions of the
Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant Assurances. In
accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), the airport will
receive fair market value for the property, which will be subsequently
reinvested in another eligible airport improvement project for aviation
facilities at CVG. The proposed use of this property is compatible with
airport operations.
    This request will release this property from federal obligations.
This action is taken under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2).
    Any person may inspect the request in person at the FAA office
listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
    In addition, any person may, upon request, inspect the request,
notice and other documents germane to the request in person at the
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

    Issued in Memphis, Tennessee, on June 24, 2021.

	June 2012

Agency:	South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)

Subject of this TSD:	Rule 1420.1 - Emissions Standard for Lead from Large Lead-acid Battery Recycling Facilities                         Adopted  -  November 5, 2010                         Submitted  -  September 27, 2011                                          BACKGROUND - On November 22, 2011, the EPA designated the Los Angeles County portion of the South Coast Air Basin, excluding the high desert areas, San Clemente and Santa Catalina Islands, as nonattainment for the 2008 lead National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). CAA §§ 172(c)(1) and 191(a) require areas that are classified as moderate or above for lead non-attainment to implement reasonably available control measures (RACM) and reasonably available control technology (RACT), and to submit a plan within 18 months of the designation.

According to SCAQMD, lead-acid battery recycling facilities are the largest lead emission sources in the Basin.  Rule 1420.1 currently applies to two battery recycling facilities, Exide Technologies in the City of Vernon and Quemetco, Inc. in the City of Industry.

RULE SUMMARY - SCAQMD Rule 1420.1, Emissions Standard for Lead from Large Lead-acid Battery Recycling Facilities, is a new rule designed to reduce exposure and emissions of lead from large lead-acid battery recycling facilities. Definitions are included in section (c); general emission limits, including specific dates of compliance, are covered in section (d); and the applications of total enclosures are set forth in section (e).  Requirements for control devices are included in section (f) and requirements for compliance plans if ambient air concentrations of lead exceed 0.12 micrograms per cubic meter averaged over 30 consecutive days, is set forth in section (g). Sections (h) and (i) include housekeeping and maintenance requirements and sections (j) and (k) define air monitoring, sampling procedures and source testing methods. Section (l) specifies requirements for new large lead-acid battery recycling facilities and sections (m) and (n) specify recordkeeping, reporting and notification requirements. Section (o) addresses the content of a study required when a facility's emissions exceed 0.12 micrograms per cubic meter over 30 consecutive days.  Appendix 1 outlines the content of the initial facility status report required in subsection (n) (3) (A).

EPA EVALUATION CRITERIA - The following criteria were used to evaluate the submitted rule.

1. 	Enforceability - The Bluebook (Issues Relating to VOC Regulation Cutpoints, Deficiencies, and Deviations, EPA, May 25, 1988) and the Little Bluebook (Guidance Document for Correcting Common VOC & Other Rule Deficiencies, EPA Region 9, August 21, 2001) were used to evaluate compliance with the CAA §110(a)(2)(A) requirement for enforceability.

2. 	Stringency  -  EPA's 2008 Lead NAAQS, 1997 Lead NESHAP, 2012 Lead NESHAP, 2008 Lead NAAQS Implementation Questions and Answers Memorandum (Scott Mathias, July 8, 2011), and the Implementation of the 2008 NAAQS Guide to Developing RACM for Controlling Lead Emissions (EPA-457/R-12-001), were used to help evaluate the RACM/RACT requirements of CAA §172(c)(1).

   3. Rule Relaxation  -  We have evaluated this SIP rule to determine whether it would interfere with any applicable requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further progress (RFP) or any other applicable requirement of the Act (CAA §110(l)) or modify, in a nonattainment area, any SIP-approved control requirement in effect before November 15, 1990 (CAA §193).

EPA EVALUATION

Enforceability - Rule 1420.1 is generally clear in defining compliance with emission limits, recordkeeping, housekeeping, annual source testing, and monitoring and sampling requirements.

In addition, section (j) requires ambient monitoring and sampling at a minimum of four sampling sites at or near the property line of facilities subject to the rule.  The exact locations of the ambient monitors must be approved by the District and are to be based on maximum expected ground level lead concentrations.  Sampling is to be conducted once every three calendar days.  If ambient air concentrations of lead exceed 0.12 micrograms per cubic meter, facilities must begin daily monitoring for a period of 60 days.  Section (n) requires submittal of all ambient monitoring results to the District on a monthly basis.

In addition, if section (j) fence-line monitors (or any District-installed monitor) register concentrations over 0.12 microgram per cubic meter averaged over 30 days, section (g) requires a facility to submit a compliance plan to the District that identifies additional lead emission reduction measures.  Section (g)(4) requires implementation of the compliance plan if levels exceed 0.15 microgram per cubic meter averaged over 30 days.

Stringency - EPA defined RACM/RACT nationally for secondary lead smelters in a document published in March 2012, well after adoption of Rule 1420.1.   Nonetheless, Rule 1420.1 contains all RACM/RACT elements described as necessary in this guidance.  A summary of these minimum elements and how they are fulfilled in Rule 1420.1 is provided below:

   * RACM includes fabric filters controlling lead process emissions from stacks. By requiring 99.97% capture efficiency for 0.3 micron particles for the filter media in subsections (f)(4) and (i)(1)(B), and by requiring that filter bags be of polytetrafluoroethylene membrane type in subsection (f)(5), Rule 1420.1 essentially requires the replacement of old fabric filters.        * RACM also includes negative pressure total enclosures and partial enclosures with wet suppression for process units and storage areas to capture fugitive process emissions. Rule 1420.1(e) requires total enclosures for battery breaking areas, storage areas, dryer areas, melting furnace areas, agglomerating furnace areas and refining and casting areas.  Section (e) also requires that total enclosures be maintained at a negative pressure of a minimum 0.02 mm Hg (0.11 inches H2O). Each total enclosure must be vented to an emission collection system that ducts the entire stream to a lead control device that meets the requirements in subsection (f) for filters and baghouses. Wet suppression is recommended for maintenance in an enclosure under negative pressure in areas where fugitive lead dust generation is a potential, "barring safety issues" in subsection (i)(1)(B).    * RACM includes paving or chemical stabilization of unpaved roads, and vacuuming paved roads for fugitive dust sources. Rule 1420.1(h), Housekeeping Requirements, requires paving and cleaning of surfaces subject to vehicular traffic, cleaning of rooftop structures, monthly inspections of enclosures and other structures that contain fugitive dust and storage methods for fugitive dust.

The following are also considered RACM/RACT in EPA's March 2012 guidance:    * Fabric filters with downstream add-on control devices, such as HEPA filters, to control uncontrolled lead process emissions from stacks. Rule 1420.1(f)(3) specifically requires a secondary lead control device on dryer emissions.  In addition, Rule 1420.1(g)(2)(A)(iv) provides that compliance plans may include the installation of multi-stage lead control devices as an additional emission reduction measures for the compliance plan.     * Replacement of old fabric filters.  The stringent requirements of Sections 1420.1(f)(4) and (5) will result in the replacement of any filter bags that do not meet those standards.     * Cleaning of vehicles and building exteriors. Requirements in Rule 1420.1(h) include regular cleaning of rooftops, lead-containing waste storage or recovery areas, and requirements in section (i)(2) include general cleaning of lead-contaminated equipment and materials used for any maintenance activity.

EPA also published the final residual risk and technology review revisions to the National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants from Secondary Lead Smelting (NESHAP) in 2012.  The revised NESHAP requirements represent the maximum achievable control technology (MACT) under CAA Section 112.  MACT requirements apply nationwide, regardless of whether an area attains the Lead NAAQS, so we expect that MACT requirements are also needed in order to fulfill RACM/RACT. The revised NESHAP's compliance deadline for existing sources is May 19, 2011.  A summary of the MACT requirements and how they are addressed by Rule 1420.1 is provided below:      * MACT for an existing source must maintain 1.0 milligrams of lead per dry standard cubic meter in any process vent gas and 0.20 milligrams of lead per dry standard cubic meter from a secondary lead smelting facility on a rolling 12-month average basis.  Rule 1420.1(d) requires compliance with a facility-wide limit of 0.15 micrograms of lead per cubic meter over 30 consecutive days.    * MACT for an existing source must meet the applicable emissions limits for hydrocarbons and dioxins and furans. Rule 1420.1 addresses lead emissions only.    * MACT requires that initial performance tests and annual compliance tests be required unless a continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) is installed.  Rule 1420.1(k) requires an initial source test and annual source tests.     * MACT requires separating plastic battery casings from all other automotive batteries prior to introducing feed to a furnace. This provision is germane to dioxins and furans and is not addressed by Rule 1420.1.    * MACT requires total enclosures maintained at negative pressure for process fugitive emissions for various sources. The total enclosure must be vented to ensure negative pressure and inspections for enclosure breaches should be routine. Rule 1420.1(e) requires total enclosures for battery breaking areas, storage areas, dryer areas, smelting furnace areas, agglomerating furnaces areas and refining and casting areas maintained at negative pressure. Venting of the total enclosures to maintain negative pressure is required in subsection (e)(3). The housekeeping provisions in subsection (h)(2) require inspections and repairs of all total enclosures.    * MACT requires that a standard operating procedures manual and fugitive dust control standard operating procedures be prepared and submitted. While an operations manual is not explicitly required by Rule 1420.1, Appendix 1 to the rule requires a status report which is to include, among other things, a description of types of lead processes performed at the facility and operating schedules.    * MACT specifies EPA test methods 1, 2, 3A, 3B, 4, 12 or 29 to determine compliance for lead. Rule 1420.1 specifies EPA Method 12 and lists the other EPA-approved methods as optional test methods.    * MACT requires recordkeeping on site for 2 years and maintained for 5 years.  Rule 1420.1(m)(2) requires facility records be maintained for 5 years and kept on site for 2 years.        Based on comparison above to the MACT and national RACM guidance, and based on additional analysis provided in SCAQMD's staff report for this rule, we conclude that Rule 1420.1 adequately fulfills CAA RACM/RACT requirements.

SIP Relaxation - We propose to determine that our approval of the submittal would comply with CAA section 193 because the submitted SIP rule is the first for this source category and would insure emission reductions of lead.

We propose to determine that our approval of the submittal would comply with CAA section 110(l), because the proposed SIP revision strengthens the SIP and would not interfere with the on-going process for ensuring that requirements for RFP and attainment of the NAAQS are met.

ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE NEXT RULE REVISION  -

   1. For clarity, the term "worker receptor location" used in Appendix 1 should be defined in this rule or specific reference made to "Risk Assessment Procedures for Rules 1401 and 212."     2. Consider strengthening the rule by making compliance plan requirements more specific.     3. In section (f), Lead Point Source Emission Controls, consider adding additional requirements for secondary lead controls such as HEPA filters downstream of primary controls.    4. Consider adding bag leak detection systems as a facility requirement.

EPA ACTION - Rule 1420.1 fulfils the relevant CAA §110 and part D requirements.  EPA staff recommends a full approval of Rule 1420.1 pursuant to CAA §110(k) (3) and §301(a).
