Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Killeen, TX, 3877-3878 [2010-1361]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 15 / Monday, January 25, 2010 / Proposed Rules jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with PROPOSALS are both non-conservative for calculating the temperature at which an autocatalytic (runaway) oxidation reaction of Zircaloy would occur in the event of a LOCA. The petitioner states that these experiments demonstrate that the autocatalytic oxidation reaction of Zircaloy cladding occurs at temperatures far below those predicted by the Baker-Just and Cathcart-Pawel equations. The petitioner concludes that this, in turn, indicates that the BakerJust and Cathcart-Pawel equations are both non-conservative for calculating the metal-water reaction rates that would occur in the event of a LOCA. The petitioner requests that the NRC revise its regulations at 10 CFR 50.46(b)(1) to require that the calculated maximum fuel element cladding temperature not exceed a limit based on data from multi-rod (assembly) severe fuel damage experiments. The petitioner also requests that the NRC revise Appendix K to 10 CFR Part 50 to require that the rates of energy release, hydrogen generation, and cladding oxidation from the metal-water reaction considered in emergency core cooling system (ECCS) evaluation calculations be based on data from multi-rod (assembly) severe fuel damage experiments. The petitioner believes that these same requirements also need to apply to any NRC-approved bestestimate ECCS evaluation models used in lieu of calculations made under Appendix K to 10 CFR Part 50. Lastly, the petitioner requests that the NRC promulgate a regulation that will stipulate minimum allowable core reflood rates in the event of a LOCA. The petitioner believes that it can be extrapolated from experimental data that in the event of a LOCA, a constant core reflood rate of approximately one inch per second or lower would not, with high probability, prevent Zircaloy fuel cladding from exceeding the peak cladding temperature limit of 2200 °F if, at the onset of reflood, the cladding temperature was 1200 °F or higher. The petitioner believes that, if implemented, the amendments proposed in the petition would improve public and plant-worker safety. Therefore, the petitioner requests that the NRC amend its regulations regarding the domestic licensing of production and utilization facilities. Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 19th day of January 2010. For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Annette Vietti-Cook, Secretary of the Commission.

The Proposal This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), Part 71 by adding additional Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface for the newly established SIAPs at Skylark Field Airport, Killeen, TX. The airport name would be changed from Killeen Municipal Airport, to Skylark Field Airport, in accordance with the FAAs National Aeronautical Charting Office. Controlled airspace is needed for the safety and management of IFR operations at the airport. Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9T, dated August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1.

E:\FR\FM\25JAP1.SGM 25JAP1 3878 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 15 / Monday, January 25, 2010 / Proposed Rules The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. It, therefore, (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 FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 describes 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 would add additional controlled airspace at Skylark Field Airport, Killeen, TX.

The Proposal

    This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations 
(14 CFR), Part 71 by adding additional Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface for the newly established SIAPs 
at Skylark Field Airport, Killeen, TX. The airport name would be 
changed from Killeen Municipal Airport, to Skylark Field Airport, in 
accordance with the FAAs National Aeronautical Charting Office. 
Controlled airspace is needed for the safety and management of IFR 
operations at the airport.
    Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 
7400.9T, dated August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, which 
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace 
designation listed in this document would be published subsequently in 
the Order.

[[Page 3878]]

    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves 
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
It, therefore, (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 FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is 
found in Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 describes 
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 would add additional controlled airspace at Skylark Field 
Airport, Killeen, TX.
