When a party determines the energy efficiency of a small electric motor to comply with an obligation imposed on it by or pursuant to Part A– 1 of Title III of EPCA, 42 U.S.C. 6311– 6317, this section applies. (b) Provisions applicable to all small electric motors—(1) General VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:44 Jul 06, 2009 Jkt 217001 requirements. The average full-load efficiency of each basic model of small electric motor must be determined either by testing in accordance with § 431.444 of this subpart, or by application of an alternative efficiency determination method (AEDM) that meets the requirements of paragraphs (a)(2) and (3) of this section, provided, however, that an AEDM may be used to determine the average full-load efficiency of one or more of a manufacturer’s basic models only if the average full-load efficiency of at least five of its other basic models is determined through testing. (2) Alternative efficiency determination method. An AEDM applied to a basic model must be: (i) Derived from a mathematical model that represents the mechanical and electrical characteristics of that basic model, and (ii) Based on engineering or statistical analysis, computer simulation or modeling, or other analytic evaluation of performance data. (3) Substantiation of an alternative efficiency determination method. Before an AEDM is used, its accuracy and reliability must be substantiated as follows: (i) The AEDM must be applied to at least five basic models that have been tested in accordance with § 431.444; and (ii) The predicted total power loss for each such basic model, calculated by applying the AEDM, must be within plus or minus 10 percent of the mean total power loss determined from the testing of that basic model. (4) Subsequent verification of an AEDM. (i) Each manufacturer that has used an AEDM under this section shall have available for inspection by the Department of Energy records showing the method or methods used; the mathematical model, the engineering or statistical analysis, computer simulation or modeling, and other analytic evaluation of performance data on which the AEDM is based; complete test data, product information, and related information that the manufacturer has generated or acquired pursuant to paragraph (a)(3) of this section; and the calculations used to determine the efficiency and total power losses of each basic model to which the AEDM was applied. (ii) If requested by the Department, the manufacturer shall conduct simulations to predict the performance of particular basic models of small electric motors specified by the Department, analyses of previous simulations conducted by the manufacturer, sample testing of basic PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 32073 models selected by the Department, or a combination of the foregoing. (c) Additional testing requirements— (1) Selection of basic models for testing if an AEDM is to be applied. (i) A manufacturer must select basic models for testing in accordance with the criteria that follow: (A) Two of the basic models must be among the five basic models with the highest unit volumes of production by the manufacturer in the prior year, or during the prior 12-month period before the effective date of the energy efficiency standard, whichever is later, and in identifying these five basic models, any small electric motor that does not comply with § 431.446 shall be excluded from consideration; (B) The basic models should be of different horsepower ratings without duplication; (C) At least one basic model should be selected from each of the frame number series for the designs of small electric motors for which the AEDM is to be used; and (D) Each basic model should have the lowest nominal full-load efficiency among the basic models with the same rating (‘‘rating’’ as used here has the same meaning as it has in the definition of ‘‘basic model’’). (ii) If it is impossible for a manufacturer to select basic models for testing in accordance with all of these criteria, the criteria shall be given priority in the order in which they are listed. Within the limits imposed by the criteria, basic models shall be selected randomly. (2) [RESERVED] Energy Conservation Standards § 431.446 Small electric motors energy conservation standards and their effective dates. [Reserved] [FR Doc.

Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9S signed October 3, 2008, and effective October 31, 2008, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class E airspace designations listed in this document will be published subsequently in that Order. The Rule This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending the Class E airspace at Montrose, CO. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface is necessary to accommodate IFR aircraft executing ILS LOC/DME approach procedures at Montrose Regional Airport, Montrose, CO. 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 DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:44 Jul 06, 2009 Jkt 217001 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 FAAs authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 discusses 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 airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    On April 13, 2009, the FAA published in the Federal Register a 
notice of proposed rulemaking to establish additional controlled 
airspace at Montrose, CO (74 FR 16812). Interested parties were invited 
to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments 
on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 of 
FAA Order 7400.9S signed October 3, 2008, and effective October 31, 
2008, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR part 71.1. The Class 
E airspace designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in that Order.

The Rule

    This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 71 by amending the Class E airspace at Montrose, CO. Additional 
controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface is 
necessary to accommodate IFR aircraft executing ILS LOC/DME approach 
procedures at Montrose Regional Airport, Montrose, CO.
    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 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 FAAs authority to issue 
rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. 
Subtitle 1, Section 106 discusses 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 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 establishes 
additional controlled airspace at Montrose Regional Airport, Montrose, 
CO.
