SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency's (Illinois EPA's)
request to redesignate the Chicago and Granite City nonattainment areas
(hereafter also referred to as the ``areas'') to attainment for the
2008 national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for lead, also
identified as Pb. EPA is also proposing to approve, as revisions to the
Illinois state implementation plan (SIP): The state's plan for
maintaining the 2008 lead NAAQS in the areas for a period of ten years
following these redesignations; the emissions inventories for the
areas; and rules applying emission limits and other control

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Final Rules section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final
rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a
noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A
detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this rule, no
further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the
direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received
will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed
rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.
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. For
additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in
the Rules section of this Federal Register.

[Docket No. CP08-11-000]

Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Application

October 29, 2007.
    Take notice that on October 18, 2007, Tennessee Gas Pipeline
Company (Tennessee), 180 East 100 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111,
filed in Docket No. CP08-11-000, an application, pursuant to section 7
of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), for an order authorizing or approving a
Payment-in-Lieu-of-Taxes transaction (PILOT Transaction) between
Tennessee and the Schoharie County Industrial Development Agency
(Agency) that would involve the lease and lease-back of certain
property, including certificated facilities located in Schoharie
County, New York. As described further in the application, the PILOT
Transaction would give the Agency a passive interest in Tennessee's
Schoharie County property and facilities solely for the purpose of
effectuating a tax exemption for Tennessee. Approval and execution of
PILOT Transaction would not effect jurisdictional services performed by
Tennessee; would not allow the Agency to administer jurisdictional
services; and would not require the addition, replacement,
construction, or abandonment of any certificated facilities or
capacity. Tennessee will retain complete ownership and operational
control of its property and facilities, all as more fully set forth in
the application which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection. This filing may also be viewed on the Commission's Web site
at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket

number, excluding the last three digits, in the docket number field to
access the document. For assistance, call<PHONE_NUMBER> or TTY, (202)
208-3676.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to
Kevin Erwin, Associate General Counsel, 1001 Louisiana, Houston Texas
77002, at<PHONE_NUMBER>
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should

submit an original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the

``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For

October 2, 2006.
    This constitutes notice, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of
the receipt of prohibited and exempt off-the-record communications.
    Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, September 22, 1999) requires Commission
decisional employees, who make or receive a prohibited or exempt off-
the-record communication relevant to the merits of a contested
proceeding, to deliver to the Secretary of the Commission, a copy of
the communication, if written, or a summary of the substance of any
oral communication.
    Prohibited communications are included in a public, non-decisional
file associated with, but not a part of, the decisional record of the
proceeding. Unless the Commission determines that the prohibited
communication and any responses thereto should become a part of the
decisional record, the prohibited off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to respond to any facts or
contentions made in a prohibited off-the-record communication, and may
request that the Commission place the prohibited communication and
responses thereto in the decisional record. The Commission will grant
such a request only when it determines that fairness so requires. Any
person identified below as having made a prohibited off-the-record
communication shall serve the document on all parties listed on the
official service list for the applicable proceeding in accordance with
Rule 2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
    Exempt off-the-record communications are included in the

decisional record of the proceeding, unless the communication was with
a cooperating agency as described by 40 CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR
385.2201(e)(1)(v).
    The following is a list of off-the-record communications recently

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval renewal information collection.
The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting
comments on the following collection of information was published on
Feb 2, 2021. The collection involves FAA's primary requirement for
annual hours flown, optimal determination of sample size is based on
flight time variation by state and aircraft type, and a sampling
fraction is determined for each cell with a no-zero population. Sample
units are selected randomly within each stratum. Respondents to this
survey are owners of general aviation aircraft. This information is
used by FAA, NTSB, and other government agencies, the aviation
industry, and others for safety assessment, planning, forecasting,
cost/benefit analysis, and to target areas for research.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by Sep 22, 2021.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be
addressed to the attention of the Desk Officer, Department of
Transportation/FAA, and sent via electronic mail to
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or faxed to<PHONE_NUMBER>, or mailed to
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW, Washington,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Parasha Vincent Flowers by email at:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>phone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-6160.
    Title: General Aviation and Part 135 Activity Survey.
    Form Numbers: 1800-54.
    Type of Review: Renewal.
    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on Feb 2, 2021 (85 FR 71710). Title 49, United States
Code, empowers the Secretary of Transportation to collect and
disseminate information relative to civil aeronautics, to study the
possibilities for development of air commerce and the aeronautical
industries, and to make long-range plans for, and formulate policy with
respect to, the orderly development and use of the navigable airspace,
radar installations and all other aids for air navigation. These data
are necessary to assess performance of the Department of Transportation
in meeting the strategic goal for General Aviation safety as

described in the Destination 2025 Strategic Plan.
    The agency and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) use
the exposure data, both by itself and in conjunction with aircraft age,
to calculate accident rates, which are used to compare safety over time
and safety performance among different aircraft types and
configurations.
    The agency and the NTSB will use the exposure data for public use
aircraft to calculate accident rates for those aircraft. The NTSB is
now required to investigate accidents involving public use aircraft.
This is a responsibility assigned by Public Law 103-411.
    Respondents: Owners of General Aviation Aircraft.
    Frequency: Annual.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: (36,000 x 20/60) = 12,000 hours.

    Issued in Washnigton, DC, on August, 23, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The ICH, formerly known as the International Conference on
Harmonisation, was established in 1990 as a joint regulatory/industry
project to improve, through harmonization, the efficiency of the
process for developing and registering new medicinal products in
Europe, Japan, and the United States without compromising the
regulatory requirements for safety and effectiveness. One of the goals
of harmonization is to identify and then reduce regional differences in
technical regulatory requirements for pharmaceutical products while
preserving a consistently high standard for drug efficacy, safety, and
quality. In 2015, the ICH was reformed to establish ICH as a true
global initiative that expands beyond the previous ICH members. More
involvement from regulators around the world is expected, as they join
counterparts from Europe, Japan, the United States, Canada, and
Switzerland as ICH observers and regulatory members. Expanded
involvement is also anticipated from global regulated pharmaceutical
industry parties, joining as ICH observers and industry members. The
reforms build on a 25-year track record of successful delivery of
harmonized guidelines for global pharmaceutical development, and their
regulation.
    ICH guidelines are developed following a five-step process. In Step
1, experts from the different ICH regions work together to prepare a
consensus draft of the Step 1 Technical Document. The Step 1 Technical
Document is submitted to the ICH Assembly to request endorsement under
Step 2a of the process. Step 2b is a ``Regulators only'' step in which
the ICH regulatory members review the Step 2a Final Technical Document
and take any actions, which might include revisions that they deem
necessary, to develop the draft ``Guideline.'' Step 3 of the process
begins with the public consultation process conducted by each of the
ICH regulatory members in their respective regions, and this step
concludes with completion and acceptance of any revisions that need to
be made to the Step 2b draft guideline in response to public comments.
Adoption of the new guideline occurs in Step 4. Following adoption, the
harmonized guideline moves to Step 5, the final step of the process
when it is implemented by each of the regulatory members in their
respective regions. The ICH process has achieved significant
harmonization of the technical requirements for the approval of
pharmaceuticals for human use in the ICH regions since 1990. More
information on the current ICH process and structure can be found at
the following website: http://www.ich.org. (FDA has verified the
website addresses, as of the date this document publishes in the
Federal Register, but websites are subject to change over time.)
    The topics for discussion at this public meeting include the
current guidelines under development under the ICH.

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2008-0367 Directorate Identifier 2007-CE-089-AD;
Amendment 39-15574; AD 2008-13-11]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Viking Air Limited Models DHC-6-1, DHC-
6-100, DHC-6-200, and DHC-6-300 Airplanes

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:

    Service experience indicates that as aircraft become older, they
are more likely to exhibit indications of corrosion.

Additionally, the FAA has reviewed the service experience and finds
this action to be necessary based upon that service experience. We are
issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: This AD becomes effective August 5, 2008.
    On August 5, 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.

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 March 31, 2008 (73
FR 16779). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    Service experience indicates that as aircraft become older, they
are more likely to exhibit indications of corrosion. Transport
Canada, in conjunction with other airworthiness authorities, has
committed itself to ensuring that additional maintenance programs
for older aircraft are developed and implemented to minimize and
control corrosive deterioration that could jeopardize airworthiness.
Bombardier Inc., as manufacturer of the DHC-6 aircraft, has
developed a Corrosion Prevention and Control Program which
identifies specific areas that must be inspected to ensure the
structural integrity of the DHC-6 fleet.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We have considered the comment received.
    The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) states that:

    AOPA opposes broad-based fleet-wide airworthiness directives to
address corrosion related issues such as this one. Instead AOPA
supports a more focused approach that takes aircraft maintenance and
usage into account; instead of an AD based solely on age.

    In general, the FAA agrees that broad-based fleet-wide ADs are not
always appropriate. However, in this case, the FAA has determined an AD
should be issued because an unsafe condition exists in the product and
the condition is likely to exist or develop in other products of the
same type design.
    The FAA is issuing this AD for two reasons, both of which are
stated in the NPRM. First, service experience indicates that as
aircraft become older, they are more likely to exhibit indications of
corrosion. Second, we have performed a review of the relevant service
experience, including a review of the Corrosion Prevention and Control
Program inspection reports that were made by operators to the
manufacturer. This service experience supports the issuance of an AD.
    The FAA agrees in principle that based upon maintenance history,
type of usage, etc., some operators may be in the position to address
this unsafe condition using alternative methods to those proposed in
the NPRM. However, it is not possible for the FAA to know all
operators' specific conditions and write a different AD for each
operator. Operators are encouraged to provide supporting evidence
regarding their maintenance and operations in support of an alternative
method of compliance (AMOC) when appropriate and should follow the
procedures in 14 CFR 39.19 and this AD for requesting an AMOC.
    We are not changing the final rule AD action based on this comment.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data, including the comment received, 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 assure 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

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this AD will
affect 162 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it will
take about 40 work-hours per product to comply with basic requirements
of this AD. The average labor rate is $80 per work-hour.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD to the U.S.
operators to be $518,400 or $3,200 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.

Adoption of the Amendment

0
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator,
the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

2008-13-11 Viking Air Limited: Amendment 39-15574; Docket No. FAA-
2008-0367; Directorate Identifier 2007-CE-089-AD.

Effective Date

    (a) This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective August
5, 2008.

Affected ADs

    (b) None.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Models DHC-6-1, DHC-6-100, DHC-6-200, and
DHC-6-300 airplanes, serial numbers (SNs) 001 through 844,
certificated in any category.

Subject

    (d) Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 51:
Structures.

Reason

    (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
states:

    Service experience indicates that as aircraft become older, they
are more likely to exhibit indications of corrosion. Transport
Canada, in conjunction with other airworthiness authorities, has
committed itself to ensuring that additional maintenance programs
for older aircraft are developed and implemented to minimize and
control corrosive deterioration that could jeopardize airworthiness.
Bombardier Inc., as manufacturer of the DHC-6 aircraft, has
developed a Corrosion Prevention and Control Program which
identifies specific areas that must be inspected to ensure the
structural integrity of the DHC-6 fleet.

Additionally, the FAA has reviewed the service experience of the
Viking Air Limited Models DHC-6-1, DHC-6-100, DHC-6-200, and DHC-6-
300 airplanes and finds this action to be necessary based upon that
service experience. The MCAI requires that you do the corrosion
tasks (CTs) required by the corrosion prevention and control
program.

Actions and Compliance

    (f) Unless already done, do the following actions:
    (1) Within the next 90 days after August 5, 2008 (the effective
date of this AD), develop a schedule for doing the initial and
repeat CTs required in paragraph (f)(2) and (f)(3) of this AD.
    (2) Initially, do all of the seven basic CTs defined at
paragraph 3.0 of Part 3 of DHC-6 Twin Otter (Series 100/200/300)

(iv) 660 through 844..............  63 months after August 5, 2008 (the
                                     effective date of this AD).
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (3) After the initial completion of each CT, repeat each CT at
the repeat interval (R) specified in the manual. Determine corrosion
level following the definitions contained in the introduction
section of DHC-6 Twin Otter (Series 100/200/300) Corrosion
Prevention and Control Manual PSM 1-6-5, Revision 3, released and
dated January 15, 2007 (individual pages dated as specified in the
List of Effective Pages on pages 7 through 12 of the document).
    (4) If any corrosion is found during any action required by this
AD, before further flight, address corrosion following paragraph 4.0
of Part 3 of DHC-6 Twin Otter (Series 100/200/300) Corrosion
Prevention and Control Manual PSM 1-6-5, Revision 3, dated January
15, 2007. All repairs are to be done following a method approved by
the Manager, New York Aircraft Certification Office or Transport
Canada Civil Aviation (or its delegated agent).
    (5) Within 21 days after the finding of Level 3 corrosion,
submit a plan to the FAA to identify a schedule for accomplishing
the applicable CTs on the remainder of the airplanes in the
operator's fleet that are subject to this AD or data substantiating
that the Level 3 corrosion that was found is an isolated case. The
FAA may impose a schedule other than proposed in the plan upon
finding that a change to the schedule is needed to assure that any
other Level 3 corrosion is detected in a timely manner. For the
purposes of this paragraph, the FAA is defined as the cognizant
principal maintenance inspector (PMI) for operators that are
assigned a PMI (e.g., part 121, 125, and 135 operators) and the
cognizant flight standards district office for other operators
(e.g., part 91 operators).
    (6) If any Level 3 corrosion is found while doing any action
required by this AD, within 21 days after the finding of Level 3
corrosion, report the finding on the form in Figure 1 of this AD and
send it to Viking Air Limited, VP Engineering, 9574 Hampden Road,
Sidney, British Columbia, Canada V8L 5V5.
    (7) Incorporation of the initial and repeat CTs into your FAA-
approved maintenance program constitutes terminating action for this
AD. If this AD is terminated in this way, then the maintenance
program must be in accordance with this AD.

[Docket No. FAA-2009-0693; Airspace Docket No. 09-AAL-14]
RIN 2120-AA66

Amendment of Restricted Area R-2204 High and R-2204 Low; Oliktok
Point, AK

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends R-2204 High and R-2204 Low at Oliktok
Point, AK, by increasing the authorized times of designation and
extending the duration of the restricted areas beyond 2009, until they
are no longer needed by the Department of Energy (DOE). Continued
access to R-2204 High and R-2204 Low at Oliktok, AK, is required for
current moored balloon and future climate-related aviation activities.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, June 3, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ken McElroy, Airspace and Rules Group,
Office of System Operations Airspace and AIM, Federal Aviation
Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591;
telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On November 24, 2009, the FAA published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking to amend Restricted Area R-2204 High and
R-2204 Low in Alaska (74 FR 61291). Interested parties were invited to
participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on
the proposal. One comment was received in support of the proposed rule
stressing the importance of continued climate studies at Oliktok Point,
Alaska.
    Section 73.22 of Title 14 CFR part 73 was republished in FAA Order
7400.8S, effective February 16, 2010.
    The DOE, Sandia National Laboratories, is continuing its arctic
climatology research on the North Slope of Alaska. Their Adjacent
Arctic Ocean site is providing data about cloud and radiative processes
at high latitudes. The arctic area has been identified as one of the
most sensitive regions to climate change. In 2004, the need to operate
an unlighted moored balloon in clouds resulted in the establishment of
R-2204 at Oliktok Point. That site was selected because of it's
proximity to the Arctic Ocean, availability of ground infrastructure to
support the scientists, and remoteness that lessens the impacts to
other instrument flight rules and visual flight rules air traffic.
    In addition to the current moored balloon activities, scientists
are interested in testing the use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)
over the coastal waters (in clouds) of the Arctic Ocean and propose to
launch and recover UAS aircraft at the Oliktok station. A Certificate
of Approval for flight outside of R-2204 would be required by the FAA
for UAS operations not contained within R-2204. The DOE has stated that
they are anticipating the development of Letters of Agreement with
other aircraft operators using airspace in the vicinity of Oliktok to
ensure that access to airspace within R-2204 is available within the
parameters agreed upon by the parties involved. On April 21, 2008, the
FAA published in the Federal Register a final rule to amend R-2204 by
changing the using agency and subdividing the area to create R-2204
High and R-2204 Low (73 FR 21246).

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 73 by amending the time of designation to allow activation of R-
2204 High and R-2204 Low by NOTAM 24 hours in advance for up to 75 days
per year. Special Use Airspace R-2204 High and R-2204 Low would
continue to be designated until it is no longer required by the DOE to
conduct research.
    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.
Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory
action'' under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule''
under Department of Transportation (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, will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority.
    This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart I, section 40103. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the
airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it amends the times of designation for restricted area airspace at
Oliktok Point, Alaska.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1E, Environmental Impacts: Polices and Procedures,
paragraph 311p. This airspace action is not expected to cause any
potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental
assessment.

II. Background

    On January 16, 2018, FMCSA published a notice announcing receipt of
applications from 46 individuals requesting an exemption from the
hearing requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) to operate a CMV in
interstate commerce and requested comments from the public (83 FR
2314). The public comment period ended on February 15, 2018, and no
comments were received.
    FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of these applicants and
determined that granting exemptions to these

individuals would achieve a level of safety equivalent to or greater
than the level that would be achieved by complying with the current
regulation 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11).
    The physical qualification standard for drivers regarding hearing
found in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) states that a person is physically
qualified to driver a CMV if that person first perceives a forced
whispered voice in the better ear at not less than 5 feet with or
without the use of a hearing aid or, if tested by use of an audiometric
device, does not have an average hearing loss in the better ear greater
than 40 decibels at 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz, and 2,000 Hz with or without a
hearing aid when the audiometric device is calibrated to American
National Standard (formerly ASA Standard) Z24.5--1951.
    49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) was adopted in 1970, with a revision in 1971
to allow drivers to be qualified under this standard while wearing a
hearing aid, 35 FR 6458, 6463 (April 22, 1970) and 36 FR 12857 (July 3,
1971).

III. Discussion of Comments

    FMCSA received no comments in this proceeding.

IV. Basis for Exemption Determination

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA may grant an exemption
from the hearing standard in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) if the exemption is
likely to achieve an equivalent or greater level of safety than would
be achieved without the exemption. The exemption allows the applicants
to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.
    The Agency's decision regarding these exemption applications is
based on current medical information and literature, and the 2008
Evidence Report, ``Executive Summary on Hearing, Vestibular Function
and Commercial Motor Driving Safety.'' The evidence report reached two
conclusions regarding the matter of hearing loss and CMV driver safety:
(1) No studies that examined the relationship between hearing loss and
crash risk exclusively among CMV drivers were identified; and (2)
evidence from studies of the private driver's license holder population
does not support the contention that individuals with hearing
impairment are at an increased risk for a crash. In addition, the
Agency reviewed each applicant's driving record found in the Commercial
Driver's License Information System (CDLIS), for commercial driver's
license (CDL) holders, and inspections recorded in the Motor Carrier
Management Information System (MCMIS). For non-CDL holders, the Agency
reviewed the driving records from the State Driver's Licensing Agency
(SDLA). Each applicant's record demonstrated a safe driving history.
Based on an individual assessment of each applicant that focused on
whether an equal or greater level of safety is likely to be achieved by
permitting each of these drivers to drive in interstate commerce as
opposed to restricting him or her to driving in intrastate commerce,
the Agency believes the drivers granted this exemption have
demonstrated that they do not pose a risk to public safety.
    Consequently, FMCSA finds that in each case exempting these
applicants from the hearing standard in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) is likely
to achieve a level of safety equal to that existing without the
exemption.

V. Conditions and Requirements

    The terms and conditions of the exemption are provided to the
applicants in the exemption document and includes the following: (1)
Each driver must report any crashes or accidents as defined in 49 CFR
390.5; (2) each driver must report all citations and convictions for
disqualifying offenses under 49 CFR part 383 and 49 CFR 391 to FMCSA;
and (3) each driver is prohibited from operating a motorcoach or bus
with passengers in interstate commerce. The driver must also have a
copy of the exemption when driving, for presentation to a duly
authorized Federal, State, or local enforcement official. In addition,
the exemption does not exempt the individual from meeting the
applicable CDL testing requirements.

VI. Preemption

    During the period the exemption is in effect, no State shall
enforce any law or regulation that conflicts with this exemption with
respect to a person operating under the exemption.

VII. Conclusion

    Based upon its evaluation of the 46 exemption applications, FMCSA
exempts the following drivers from the hearing standard, 49 CFR
391.41(b)(11), subject to the requirements cited above:

for two years from the effective date unless revoked earlier by FMCSA.
The exemption will be revoked if the following occurs: (1) The person
fails to comply with the terms and conditions of the exemption; (2) the
exemption has resulted in a lower level of safety than was maintained
prior to being granted; or (3) continuation of the exemption would not

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106
describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency's
authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described
in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section,
the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of
the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority as it would modify the route structure as necessary to
preserve the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the National
Airspace System (NAS).

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11F, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 10, 2021, and effective
September 15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F
lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service
routes, and reporting points.

Background

    The aviation industry/users have indicated a desire for the FAA to
transition the Alaskan en route navigation structure away from the
dependency on NDBs. The advances in technology have allowed for
alternate

navigation methods to support decommissioning of high cost ground
navigation equipment. The FAA has included Sumner Strait NDB in the
vicinity of Level Island, AK on the schedule to be decommissioned. A
non-rulemaking study was conducted in 2021 and the FAA received no
objections to the removal of the NDB.
    Colored Federal airway R-51 is dependent upon SQM and will result
in the airway being unusable once the decommissioning occurs. The FAA
proposes to revoke R-51 as a result.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to revoke
Colored Federal airway R-51 due to the decommissioning of SQM in the
vicinity of Level Island, AK.
    R-51: R-51 currently navigates between the Sumner Strait, AK, NDB
and the Sitka, AK, NDB. The FAA proposes to revoke the route in its
entirety.
    Colored Federal airways are published in paragraph 6009(b) of FAA
Order JO 7400.11F dated August 10, 2021 and effective September 15,
2021, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Colored
Federal airway listed in this document would be published subsequently
in FAA Order JO 7400.11.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under
Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation
of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule,
when promulgated, will 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.
