The Special Conditions
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Accordingly, pursuant to the
authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the following special
conditions are issued as part of the typecertification basis for Boeing Model
757–200 airplanes modified by AAR
Engineering Services:
1. Compliance with 14 CFR part 25,
Appendix F, parts IV and V, heat release
and smoke emission, is required for
seats that incorporate large, nontraditional, non-metallic panels that
may either be a single component or
multiple components in a concentrated
area in their design.
2. The applicant may designate up to
and including 1.5 square feet of nontraditional, non-metallic panel material
per seat place that does not have to
comply with No. 1. A triple seat
assembly may have a total of 4.5 square
feet excluded on any portion of the
assembly (e.g., outboard seat place 1 sq.
ft., middle 1 sq. ft., and inboard 2.5 sq.
ft.).
3. Seats need not meet the test
requirements of part 25 Appendix F,
parts IV and V when installed in
compartments that are not otherwise
required to meet these requirements.
Examples include:
a. Airplanes with passenger capacities
of 19 or fewer.
b. Airplanes that do not have smoke
emission and heat release in their
certification basis and do not need to
comply with the requirements of 14 CFR
121.312.
c. Airplanes exempted from heatrelease and smoke-emission
requirements.
4. Only airplanes associated with
new-seat certification programs
approved after the effective date of these
special conditions will be affected by
the requirements in these special
conditions. Previously certificated
interiors on the existing airplane fleet
and follow-on deliveries of airplanes
with previously certificated interiors are
not affected.

[Docket No. 30994; Amdt. No. 517]
IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous
Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This amendment adopts
miscellaneous amendments to the
required IFR (instrument flight rules)
altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or
direct routes for which a minimum or
maximum en route authorized IFR
altitude is prescribed. This regulatory
action is needed because of changes
occurring in the National Airspace
System. These changes are designed to
provide for the safe and efficient use of
the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.
DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC,
January 8, 2015.

telephone: (405) 954–4164.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95)
amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all
aircraft in flight over a specified route
or any portion of that route, as well as
the changeover points (COPs) for
Federal airways, jet routes, or direct
routes as prescribed in part 95.
SUMMARY:
The Rule
The specified IFR altitudes, when
used in conjunction with the prescribed
changeover points for those routes,
ensure navigation aid coverage that is
adequate for safe flight operations and
free of frequency interference. The
reasons and circumstances that create
the need for this amendment involve
matters of flight safety and operational
efficiency in the National Airspace
System, are related to published
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
aeronautical charts that are essential to
the user, and provide for the safe and
efficient use of the navigable airspace.
In addition, those various reasons or
circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next
scheduled charting and publication date
of the flight information to assure its
timely availability to the user. The
effective date of this amendment reflects
those considerations. In view of the
close and immediate relationship
between these regulatory changes and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting
this amendment are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and that
good cause exists for making the
amendment effective in less than 30
days.
Conclusion
The FAA has determined that this
regulation only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
current. It, therefore—(1) is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3)
does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated
impact is so minimal. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Notice of deviation from
drawbridge regulation.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard has issued a
temporary deviation from the operating
schedule that governs the Rob Roy
Railroad Drawbridge across the
Arkansas River, mile 64.7, at Pine Bluff,
Arkansas. The deviation is necessary to
allow the bridge owner to install a new
generator and motor that are essential to
the continued safe operation of the
drawbridge. This deviation allows the
bridge to remain in the closed-tonavigation position and not open to
vessel traffic.
DATES: This deviation is effective
without actual notice from December
11, 2014 through January 21, 2015. For
the purposes of enforcement, actual
notice will be used from November 24,
2014, until December 11, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Canadian Pacific Railroad requested a
temporary deviation for the Rob Roy
Railroad Drawbridge, across the
Arkansas River, mile 64.7, at Pine Bluff,
Arkansas to remain in the closed-tonavigation position during specific
dates and times occurring between
November 24, 2014 and January 21,
2015. The scheduled closures during
this temporary deviation are as follows:
November 24th, 2014 from 8 a.m. to 4
p.m., one 8-hour closure;
December 15–23, 2014, 2 two-hour
closures each day;

January 8–12, 2015, 2 two-hour daily
closures each day; and
January 13–21, 2015, 2 two-hour
closures each day.
These closures are necessary to install
a new generator and motor. The Coast
Guard will also inform the users of the
waterways through our Local and
Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the
change in operating schedule for the
bridge so that vessels can arrange their
transits to minimize any impact caused
by the temporary deviation.
The Rob Roy Railroad Drawbridge
currently operates in accordance with
33 CFR 117.5, which states the general
requirement that drawbridge shall open
promptly and fully for the passage of
vessels when a request to open is given
in accordance with the subpart.
There are no alternate routes for
vessels transiting this section of the
Arkansas River.
The Rob Roy Railroad Drawbridge, in
the closed-to-navigation position,
provides a vertical clearance of 17.6 feet
above normal pool. Navigation on the
waterway consists primarily of
commercial tows and recreational
watercraft and will not be significantly
impacted. This temporary deviation has
been coordinated with waterway users.
No objections were received.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
