Release of Waybill Data, 2927 [2010-754]

Download as PDF jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 11 / Tuesday, January 19, 2010 / Notices employees will include each OPS issued OpID covered by the MIS report. Under Part 199, operators who had 50 or more operator and contractor employees performing § 199.3 ‘‘covered functions’’ during calendar year 2009, must submit a MIS report. OPS may also request in writing, MIS reports from operators with fewer than 50 operator and contractor employees performing covered functions. In January 2010, OPS plans to notify each operator who is required, or requested, to submit a report before March 15, 2010 by mail. The notification will include detailed instructions for including all OpID and each contractor BTIN in both online and paper MIS reports. The total number of covered employees is not limited to employees who physically worked in a maintenance, operations, or emergency response role during the previous calendar year. The definition of ‘‘performs a covered function’’ in Part 199.3 includes actually performing, ready to perform, or immediately available to perform a covered function. Operators need to be cognizant of this definition when calculating the number of covered employees for both the operator and contractors. Employees who ‘‘perform a covered function’’ as defined in § 199.3, are required to be included in the random drug testing pool. The average size of a properly maintained random drug testing pool defines the number of covered employees. While the total number of covered employees determines if an operator must submit a MIS report, operator and contractor employee testing data must be submitted in separate MIS reports. Additionally, to ensure that contractor employees are only counted once in the entire set of calendar year 2009 MIS reports, data for each contractor with a unique BTIN will be submitted in a separate MIS report. After mailing the detailed instructions to operators, OPS will post the same information on the Drug & Alcohol Program Web site at https://www.phmsa.dot.gov/pipeline/ regs/drug. Operators are encouraged to submit MIS reports online. The online reporting option improves data accuracy and helps reduce the number of incomplete MIS reports. If an operator submits a paper MIS report to OPS, the operator will not receive a confirmation receipt for the MIS report. If an operator submits an online MIS report and includes an e-mail address, a confirmation receipt will be sent. VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:28 Jan 15, 2010 Jkt 220001 Submission of MIS Reports OPS offers the following information to help operators prepare for submitting calendar year 2009 MIS reports. For clarity, the process steps are presented for single OpID reporting and multiple OpID reporting. Single OpID Reporting Step 1: Determine the number of operator employees performing § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009. Step 2: Obtain the BTIN for each contractor who provided § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009. Determine the number of employees performing § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009 for each contractor. Sum the number of contractor employees. Step 3: Add the number of operator and contractor employees from Steps 1 and 2. If this number is less than 50, a MIS report is required only if you receive a letter from OPS requesting a MIS report. Multiple OpID Reporting Step 1: Determine the number of operator employees performing § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009 for each reporting OpID. Sum the number of operator employees. Step 2: Obtain the BTIN for each contractor who provided § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009 to any reporting OpID. Determine the number of employees performing § 199.3 covered functions during calendar year 2009 for each contractor. Sum the number of contractor employees. Step 3: Add the total number of operator and contractor employees from Steps 1 and 2. If this number is less than 50, a MIS report is required only if you receive a letter from OPS requesting a MIS report. Authority: 49 U.S.C. chapter 601 and 49 CFR 1.53.

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land. SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a proposal to change a portion of the Dupont Lapeer Airport from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize the sale of the airport property. The proposal consists of the sale of vacant, unimproved land owned by the Dupont-Lapeer Airport Board (Board). The Board has requested from FAA a ‘‘Release from Federal agreement obligated land covenants’’ to sell one (1) parcel of property acquired by the Board with Federal funding under the Airport Improvement Program, State Block Grant No. B–26–0056–0196. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the Board to dispose of the vacant property. Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the disposal of the airport property nor a determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. The disposition of proceeds from the disposal of the airport property will be in accordance with FAA’s Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1999.
