EPA is granting partial approval to Washington State Department of Health's (WDOH) request for delegation of authority to implement and enforce the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for radionuclide air emission. This action is being taken under the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act).

The Bureau of Industry and Security is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by issuing a general order to impose a license requirement for exports and reexports of all items subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) where the transaction involves Mayrow General Trading or entities related, as follows: Micatic General Trading; Majidco Micro Electronics; Atlinx Electronics; Micro Middle East Electronics; Narinco; F.N. Yaghmaei; and H. Ghasir. Mayrow General Trading and all entities related are located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This order also prohibits the use of License Exceptions for exports or reexports of any items subject to the EAR involving these entities. This final rule also adds a reference to the new general order in the part of the EAR that sets forth end-use and end-user license requirements.

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations, part 71 (14 CFR part 71) by revising the Class E airspace area at Wellington Municipal Airport, KS. The establishment of a non-directional beacon (NDB) runway (RWY) 35 standard instrument approach procedure (SIAP) necessitates the revision of the Class E airspace area. This airspace area and the legal description are revised to conform to the criteria in FAA Orders.

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) proposes to eliminate duplicative requirements for safety-sensitive employees of some public (mass) transportation systems, who are subject to the alcohol and controlled substances (D&A) testing requirements of both FTA and the United States Coast Guard (USCG), or FTA and the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration (FMCSA). Recipients could concurrently comply with FTA's D&A testing program as they comply with the testing requirements of the USCG or FMCSA. However, FTA's post-accident and reasonable suspicion testing requirements would continue to apply when accidents occur while performing public (mass) transportation activities.

The EPA is approving a revision to the Minnesota State Implementation Plan (SIP) that will establish, pursuant to regulations on public hearings, an alternative public participation process for certain SIP revisions. EPA is approving the Minnesota SIP revision because we believe that the procedures set forth in Minnesota's request afford the public adequate opportunity to comment on these noncontroversial SIP revisions. In its SIP revision, Minnesota has identified a limited number of types of SIP revisions that have been found to be noncontroversial and in which the public has historically shown little or no interest. For this limited number of SIP revisions, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) will offer the opportunity for a public hearing, but will not hold a hearing if one is not requested. The EPA agrees that the SIP types that have been identified by the MPCA have historically been noncontroversial and that offering the public the opportunity to request a public hearing rather than holding one automatically does not limit or curtail the public participation process. Also, EPA is acknowledging that a public hearing held at the time of the MPCA rulemaking, which meets the criteria for a SIP public hearing, precludes the need for a separate public hearing solely for SIP purposes. EPA proposed to approve these revisions to the Minnesota SIP on February 1, 2006 and no adverse comments were received on this proposal. We are also taking this opportunity to correct a typographical error made in that proposed approval.

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all DORNIER LUFTFAHRT GmbH Models 228-100, 228-101, 228-200, 228-201, 228- 202, and 228-212 airplanes. This AD requires you to repetitively inspect the wiring in the flight deck overhead panels (locations 5VE and 6VE) for chafing and damage and repair any chafed or damaged wires. Regardless of the results of each inspection, this AD requires you to assure correct installation of the wiring in the flight deck overhead panels by reattaching or replacing the wire tie attachment holders and securing any loose wires to the wire tie attachment holders with plastic wire ties. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. We are issuing this AD to detect, correct, and prevent chafed or damaged wires in the flight deck overhead panels, which could result in short-circuiting of related wiring. This condition could lead to electrical failure of affected systems and potential fire in the flight deck.
