Establishment of Class E Airspace; Sayre, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Robert Packer Hospital, Sayre, Pennsylvania. The development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Robert Packer Hospital, Sayre, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Robert Packer Hospital.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Ridgeway, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Ridgeway Landing Zone, Ridgeway, PA. Development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Ridgeway Landing Zone, Ridgeway, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Ridgeway Landing Zone.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Troy, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Hill Top Heliport, Troy, Pennsylvania. The development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Hill Top Heliport, Troy, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Hill Top Heliport.
Establishment of Class E Airspace: Jersey Shore Airport, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Jersey Shore Airport, PA. Development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Jersey Shore Airport, Jersey Shore, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Jersey Shore Airport.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Wellsboro, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Nessmuk Helipad, Wellsboro, Pennsylvania. The development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Nessmuk Helipad, Wellsboro, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Nessmuk Helipad.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Wilkes Barre, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania. The development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Wyoming Valley Medical Center, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Wilkes Barre, PA.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Tunkhannock, PA
This action establishes Class E airspace at Tyler Memorial Hospital, Tunkhannock, PA. Development of an Area Navigation (RNAV), Helicopter Point in Space Approach, for the Tyler Memorial Hospital Heliport, Tunkhannock, PA, has made this action necessary. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach to the Tyler Memorial Hospital Heliport.
Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants; Supplemental Proposed Rule
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to supplement its proposed rule entitled ``Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants,'' which was published on March 13, 2006 (71 FR 12782). The NRC is proposing to supplement that proposed rule by amending the regulations applicable to limited work authorizations (LWA), which allow limited construction activities on nuclear power plants to commence before a construction permit or combined license is issued. This supplemental proposed rule would modify the scope of activities that are considered construction requiring a LWA and would also make changes to the review and approval process for LWA requests. The NRC is proposing these changes to enhance the efficiency of its licensing and approval process for new nuclear reactors.
Revisions to Ambient Air Monitoring Regulations
The EPA is issuing final amendments to the ambient air monitoring requirements for criteria pollutants. The purpose of the amendments is to enhance ambient air quality monitoring to better serve current and future air quality management and research needs. The final amendments establish limited ambient air monitoring requirements for thoracic coarse particles in the size range of PM10-2.5 to support continued research into these particles' distribution, sources, and health effects. The ambient air monitoring amendments also require each State to operate one to three monitoring stations that take an integrated, multipollutant approach to ambient air monitoring. In addition, the final amendments modify the general monitoring network design requirements for minimum numbers of ambient air monitors to focus on populated areas with air quality problems and to reduce significantly the requirements for criteria pollutant monitors that have measured ambient air concentrations well below the applicable National Ambient Air Quality Standards. These amendments also revise certain provisions regarding monitoring network descriptions and periodic assessments, quality assurance, and data certifications. A number of the amendments relate specifically to PM2.5, revising the requirements for reference and equivalent method determinations (including specifications and test procedures) for fine particle monitors.
National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Particulate Matter
Based on its review of the air quality criteria and national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter (PM), EPA is making revisions to the primary and secondary NAAQS for PM to provide increased protection of public health and welfare, respectively. With regard to primary standards for fine particles (generally referring to particles less than or equal to 2.5 micrometers ([micro]m) in diameter, PM2.5), EPA is revising the level of the 24-hour PM2.5 standard to 35 micrograms per cubic meter ([micro]g/m\3\) and retaining the level of the annual PM2.5 standard at 15[micro]g/m\3\. With regard to primary standards for particles generally less than or equal to 10[mu]m in diameter (PM10), EPA is retaining the 24-hour PM10 and revoking the annual PM10 standard. With regard to secondary PM standards, EPA is making them identical in all respects to the primary PM standards, as revised.
