Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 200 / Tuesday, October 18, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
agree. We believe that the previous
approvals for using hydrophobic coating
should have included special conditions
in the type certification basis. As is the
case for the Model G150, the use of
hydrophobic coatings in lieu of
windshield wipers represents a novel
design feature relative to the
certification basis of each of those
airplane types. While the satisfactory
service history indicates that these
particular designs would likely have
met the requirements of the special
conditions, the existing regulatory
requirements would not by themselves
have necessarily assured the intended
level of safety for the use of
hydrophobic coating for precipitation
removal for these designs, or for other
designs. Special conditions are
necessary to address the use of
hydrophobic coating instead of
windshield wipers. No changes were
made as a result of this comment.
Sufficient View
The commenter recommends that the
term ‘‘sufficient view’’ be changed to
‘‘sufficient view depending on aircraft
speed.’’ The commenter states that the
visibility requirements for taxi are
different than the requirements for
flight.
We do not agree with the commenter’s
recommendation. The existing
regulatory requirements in 14 CFR
25.773(b)(1), at Amendment 25–108, do
not explicitly include this qualification.
As with the existing requirements, the
interpretation of ‘‘sufficient view’’ in
these special conditions may be
dependent on several factors other than
airplane speed, such as phase of flight
or ground operations. No changes were
made as a result of this comment.
Changes to the Proposed Special
Conditions
The reference to ‘‘the flight path in
normal flight attitudes of the airplane’’
has been changed to ‘‘the ground or
flight path in normal taxi and flight
attitudes of the airplane.’’ This change
clarifies a possible ambiguity regarding
the path of the airplane relative to the
speeds necessary to maintain the clear
vision area. While this additional
language is absent from the requirement
of § 25.773(b)(1), it is consistent with
the intended level of safety. As noted in
the Discussion section of the Notice of
Proposed Special Conditions, the
existing requirements are premised on
the use of windshield wipers or other
means for which slow speeds and
minimal airflow are not limiting
conditions for maintaining an area of
clear vision. Hydrophobic coatings,
however, are least effective at slow

Jkt 208001
speeds and low airflow rates. To
maintain the same level of safety as the
existing regulations, the certification
basis must address both ground and
flight operations, as reflected by the
speed and airflow range included in the
proposed special conditions.
We also changed the Discussion
section to correct the effective date of
Amendment 25–108 from December 26,
1990, to December 26, 2002. In addition,
we made editorial changes to the
Discussion section to clarify certain
information regarding airspeed. Except
as discussed above, the special
conditions are adopted as proposed.

Applicability
RIN 2120–AA66
As discussed above, these special
conditions are applicable to the Model
G150. Should GALP apply at a later date
for a change to the type certificate to
include other type designs incorporating
the same novel or unusual design
feature, the special conditions would
apply to those models as well under the
provisions of § 21.101.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
To reduce confusion between the Las
Vegas, NM, VORTAC and the Las Vegas,
NV, VORTAC, a decision was made to
change the name of the ‘‘Las Vegas, NM,
VORTAC’’ to the ‘‘Fort Union, NM,
VORTAC.’’ Because the name of the
VORTAC is contained in the legal
description of J–8, J–18, J–19, J–58, J–76,
J–104 and J–244; and V–60, V–190, V–
263 and V–611, the legal descriptions
E:\FR\FM\18OCR1.SGM
18OCR1
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 200 / Tuesday, October 18, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
must be changed. The FAA is also
making editorial changes to update the
format of the legal descriptions for VOR
Federal Airways V–190, V–263 and V–
611 by eliminating references to
mileages and altitudes that are no longer
included in the legal descriptions of
airways.
Jet Routes and Federal airways are
published in paragraphs 2004 and
6010(a), respectively of FAA Order
7400.9N dated September 1, 2005, and
effective September 15, 2005, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Jet Routes and Federal airways
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the order.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
revising the legal descriptions for Jet
Routes J–8, J–18, J–19, J–58, J–76, J–104
and J–244; and VOR Federal Airways V–
60, V–190, V–263 and V–611 over the
Las Vegas, NM, area. The FAA is taking
this action due to the renaming of the
Las Vegas, NM, VORTAC and to
enhance the management of aircraft
operations over the Las Vegas, NM, area.
Further, the FAA is making editorial
changes to update the format of the legal
descriptions for VOR Federal Airways
V–190, V–263 and V–611. There are no
geographical changes to the affected Jet
routes and VOR Federal airways.
Therefore, notice and public procedure
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are unnecessary.
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.
Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this
action qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act in accordance with
Paragraph 311(a) of FAA Order 1050.1E,
Policies and Procedure for Considering
Environmental Impacts. This airspace

action is not expected to cause any
potentially significant impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that
warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

SUMMARY: The Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission) is
amending its regulations in accordance
with section 311(d) of the Energy Policy
Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005) to establish
mandatory procedures requiring
prospective applicants to begin the
Commission’s pre-filing review process
at least six months prior to filing an
application for authorization to site and
construct a liquefied natural gas (LNG)
terminal. Section 311(d) of EPAct 2005,
enacted on August 8, 2005, directs the
Commission to promulgate such
regulations within 60 days after
enactment of EPAct 2005. The
regulations’ mandatory procedures are
designed to encourage applicants for
LNG terminal siting and construction
authority to cooperate with state and
local officials, as required by EPAct
2005. The regulations also make the prefiling process mandatory for prospective
applicants for authority to construct
related jurisdictional pipeline and other
natural gas facilities, as defined in the
regulations. The regulations also require
a prospective applicant to comply with
the pre-filing procedures prior to filing
an application to make modifications to
an existing or authorized LNG terminal
if such modifications involve significant
state and local safety considerations that
have not been previously addressed.
Under this Final Rule, prospective
applicants may elect on a voluntary
basis to undertake the pre-filing process
prior to filing applications for other
facilities subject to the Commission’s
jurisdiction under the Natural Gas Act
(NGA).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
EFFECTIVE DATE:
1. Pursuant to section 311(d) of the
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct
2005),1 enacted on August 8, 2005, the
Commission is required, by October 7,
2005, to promulgate regulations
requiring prospective applicants for
authorization for the siting and
construction of liquefied natural gas
(LNG) terminals (as defined in EPAct
2005) to comply with the Commission’s
pre-filing review process, beginning at
least six months prior to filing an
application. As further required by
EPAct 2005, the proposed regulations
are designed to encourage applicants to
cooperate with state and local officials,
a goal also contemplated by the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA).2 This Final Rule fulfills the
Commission’s responsibilities under
section 311(d) of EPAct 2005.
2. The mandatory procedures
established in this Final Rule require
that a prospective applicant for
authority to site and construct an LNG
terminal submit information necessary
for NEPA pre-filing review of the LNG
terminal, as defined in EPAct 2005. A
prospective applicant for authority to
construct related jurisdictional pipeline
and other natural gas facilities, as
defined in the regulations, is also
required to undertake the mandatory
pre-filing review process. A prospective
applicant is also required to comply
with the pre-filing procedures prior to
filing an application to make
modifications to an existing LNG
terminal if such modifications involve
significant state and local safety
considerations that have not been
previously addressed. This Final Rule
provides that prospective applicants

may elect on a voluntary basis to
undertake the pre-filing process prior to
filing applications for other facilities
subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction
under the Natural Gas Act (NGA).
II. Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
3. In response to EPAct 2005’s
directive with respect to LNG terminals,
the Commission issued a Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) on
August 26, 2005, in Docket No. RM05–
31–000 setting forth proposed
regulations to implement a mandatory
pre-filing process for prospective
applicants for authority under section 3
of the NGA for the siting and
construction of new LNG terminals.3 As
explained in the NOPR, it was already
the Commission’s policy prior to
enactment of EPAct 2005 to encourage
prospective applicants’ use of the
Commission’s optional pre-filing
process for LNG terminal projects, as
well as interstate gas pipeline projects
in appropriate cases, to encourage early
involvement by the public and
governmental agencies, as contemplated
by NEPA and Council on Environmental
Quality (CEQ) regulations. Further,
because it is desirable to maximize early
public involvement to promote the
wide-spread dissemination of
information about proposed projects
and to reduce the amount of time
required to issue an environmental
impact statement (EIS) or environmental
assessment (EA) once an application is
filed, the Commission’s Office of Energy
Projects (OEP) developed its current
guidelines for going beyond informal
discussions into a more formal pre-filing
process.4
4. As explained in the NOPR, the
Commission’s experience with the
current pre-filing process is that it has
been used with much success since its
introduction several years ago. It is a
process with which the natural gas
industry, governmental entities and the
public are familiar. However, the
current pre-filing process is optional,
and EPAct 2005 requires that the
Commission implement a mandatory,
rather than elective, pre-filing process
3 112 FERC ¶ 61,232 (2005); 70 FR 52328
(September 2, 2005).
4 Under the Commission’s optional pre-filing
process, the Commission’s staff provides
prospective applicants guidelines which are
described at length in the NOPR. As explained in
the NOPR, the current guidelines were developed
because in certain respects the collaborative prefiling procedures set forth in section 157.22 of the
Commission’s regulations, 18 CFR 157.22 (2005),
have proven to be impracticable. Therefore, as
proposed in the NOPR, the Commission is
eliminating the collaborative process procedures of
section 157.22 in conjunction with the
promulgation of new regulations in this rulemaking
proceeding.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
To reduce confusion between the Las Vegas, NM, VORTAC and the Las
Vegas, NV, VORTAC, a decision was made to change the name of the ``Las
Vegas, NM, VORTAC'' to the ``Fort Union, NM, VORTAC.'' Because the name
of the VORTAC is contained in the legal description of J-8, J-18, J-19,
J-58, J-76, J-104 and J-244; and V-60, V-190, V-263 and V-611, the
legal descriptions
[[Page 60425]]
must be changed. The FAA is also making editorial changes to update the
format of the legal descriptions for VOR Federal Airways V-190, V-263
and V-611 by eliminating references to mileages and altitudes that are
no longer included in the legal descriptions of airways.
Jet Routes and Federal airways are published in paragraphs 2004 and
6010(a), respectively of FAA Order 7400.9N dated September 1, 2005, and
effective September 15, 2005, which is incorporated by reference in 14
CFR 71.1. The Jet Routes and Federal airways listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the order.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR)
part 71 by revising the legal descriptions for Jet Routes J-8, J-18, J-
19, J-58, J-76, J-104 and J-244; and VOR Federal Airways V-60, V-190,
V-263 and V-611 over the Las Vegas, NM, area. The FAA is taking this
action due to the renaming of the Las Vegas, NM, VORTAC and to enhance
the management of aircraft operations over the Las Vegas, NM, area.
Further, the FAA is making editorial changes to update the format of
the legal descriptions for VOR Federal Airways V-190, V-263 and V-611.
There are no geographical changes to the affected Jet routes and VOR
Federal airways. Therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are unnecessary.
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.
Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with Paragraph 311(a) of FAA Order 1050.1E, Policies and Procedure for
Considering Environmental Impacts. This airspace action is not expected
to cause any potentially significant impacts, and no extraordinary
circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental
assessment.
