The Coast Guard is creating a temporary safety zone upon the navigable waters of the Lake Moolvalya region on the lower Colorado River in support of the Bluewater Resort and Casino `300' Enduro boat race. This safety zone is necessary to provide for the safety of the participants, crew, spectators, participating vessels, and other vessels and users of the waterway. Persons and vessels are prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or anchoring within this safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port or his designated representative.

The Coast Guard will enforce the Navy Pier Southeast Safety Zone in Chicago Harbor from August 1, 2009, through August 29, 2009, for the Navy Pier Wednesday Fireworks and the Navy Pier Saturday Fireworks. This action is necessary and intended to ensure safety of life on the navigable waters immediately prior to, during, and immediately after fireworks events. During the enforcement period, no person or vessel may enter, move within, or exit the safety zone without permission of the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or a designated representative.

The FAA proposes to supersede an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for Lycoming Engines (formerly Textron Lycoming) models 320, 360, and 540 series, ``Parallel Valve'' reciprocating engines, with certain Engine Components, Inc. (ECi) cylinder assemblies, part number (P/N) AEL65102 series ``Titan,'' installed. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive visual inspections and compression tests to detect cracks at the head-to-barrel interface, replacement of cylinder assemblies found cracked, and replacement of certain cylinder assemblies at new, reduced times-in-service. This proposed AD would require the same actions, but for an expanded population of cylinder assemblies. This proposed AD results from reports of 10 additional cylinder head separations since issuing AD 2008-19-05, on cylinder serial numbers not listed in that AD. We are proposing this AD to prevent loss of engine power due to cracks at the head-to-barrel interface and possible engine failure caused by separation of a cylinder head, which could result in loss of control of the aircraft.

In accordance with 18 CFR 381.104, the Commission issues this update of its filing fees. This notice provides the yearly update using data in the Commission's Management, Administrative, and Payroll System to calculate the new fees.

EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Alabama State Implementation Plan (SIP), submitted by the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), on February 6, 2008, to adopt specific contingency measures in the form of permit conditions for two cement kilns. These contingency measures are being adopted for the continued maintenance of the 1997 8-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) in Jefferson and Shelby Counties (``Birmingham Area''). On May 12, 2006, EPA approved the 8-hour ozone redesignation of the Birmingham Area from nonattainment to attainment for the 1997 8- hour ozone NAAQS (see, 71 FR 27631). Additional measures may be necessary in the future; however, these revisions qualify as contingency measures as required under Section 175A(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA).

EPA is updating the materials submitted by Nebraska that are incorporated by reference (IBR) into the State implementation plan (SIP). The regulations affected by this update have been previously submitted by the state agency and approved by EPA. This update affects the SIP materials that are available for public inspection at the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center located at EPA Headquarters in Washington, DC, and the Regional Office.

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the U.S. Department of Transportation, Office of the Secretary, announces its plan to submit the Information Collection Request (ICR) described below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for its review and approval. The new information collection is associated with a required review pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), implementing regulations for a Survey Over-the-Road Bus (OTRB) Companies located at subpart H of 49 CFR part 37. The collected information would assist DOT with any decision to modify or retain the requirements contained in the ADA regulations. On April 22, 2008, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) published a Federal Register notice (at 73 FR 21685) allowing for a 60-day comment period on a new ICR involving OTRBs. Two comments were received on this issue.

EPA is finalizing approval of revisions to the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District portion of the California State Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions were proposed in the Federal Register on June 8, 2009 and concern volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from organic solvent cleaning and degreasing operations. We are approving local rules that regulate these emission sources under the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA or the Act).
