AGENCY:
The U.S. Election Assistance
Commission (EAC) is amending its
regulations to reflect a change of address
for its headquarters. This technical
amendment is a nomenclature change
that updates and corrects the address for
contacting and submitting requests to
EAC headquarters.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
22, 2010, EAC’s Headquarters relocated
from 1225 New York Ave, NW., Suite
1100, Washington, DC 20005 to 1201
New York Ave, NW., Suite 300,
Washington, DC 20005. This address
will appear as EAC’s official agency
address and serve as the reception point
for agency visitors. Telephone numbers
for EAC employees have not changed.
I. Statutory Authority
This action is taken under EAC’s
authority, at 5 U.S.C. 552, to publish
regulations in the Federal Register.
Under the Administrative Procedure
Act, at 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), statutory
procedures for agency rulemaking do
not apply ‘‘when the agency for good
cause finds (and incorporates the
finding and a brief statement of reasons
therefore in the rules issued) that notice
and public procedure thereon are
impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ EAC finds that
such notice and public procedure are
impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest, on the grounds
that: (1) These amendments are
technical and non-substantive; and (2)
the public benefits from timely
notification of a change in the official
agency address, and further delay is
unnecessary and contrary to the public
interest. Similarly, because this final
rule makes no substantive changes and
merely reflects a change of address in
existing regulations, this final rule is not
subject to the effective date limitation of
5 U.S.C. 553(d).
II. Regulatory Procedures
A. Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), EAC has determined
that this rule would not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
The regulation affects only the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission. This
rule does not require a general notice of
proposed rulemaking and, therefore, is
exempt from the requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act.
B. Collection of Information
This regulation contains no new
information collection requirements
subject to review by the Office of
Management and Budget under the
E:\FR\FM\16AUR1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 157 / Monday, August 16, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501–3520).
C. Federalism
A rule has implications for federalism
under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct
effect on State or local governments and
would either preempt State law or
impose a substantial direct cost of
compliance on them. EAC analyzed this
rule under that Executive Order and
have determined that it does not have
implications for federalism.
D. Taking of Private Property
This rule will not affect a taking of
private property or otherwise have
taking implications under Executive
Order 12630, Governmental Actions and
Interference with Constitutionally
Protected Property Rights.
E. Civil Justice Reform
This rule meets applicable standards
in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive
Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to
minimize litigation, eliminate
ambiguity, and reduce burden.
F. Protection of Children
EAC analyzed this rule under
Executive Order 13045, Protection of
Children from Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not
an economically significant rule and
does not create an environmental risk to
health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.
WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with RULES
G. Indian Tribal Governments
This rule does not have Tribal
implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial
direct effect on one or more Indian
Tribes, on the relationship between the
Federal Government and Indian Tribes,
or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian Tribes.
H. Energy Effects
EAC analyzed this rule under
Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have
determined that it is not a ‘‘significant
energy action’’ under that order because
it is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’
under Executive Order 12866 and is not
likely to have a significant adverse effect
on the supply, distribution, or use of
energy.
I. Technical Standards
The National Technology Transfer
and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
VerDate Mar<15>2010
14:09 Aug 13, 2010
Jkt 220001
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use
voluntary consensus standards in their
regulatory activities unless the agency
provides Congress, through OMB, with
an explanation of why using these
standards would be inconsistent with
applicable law or otherwise impractical.
Voluntary consensus standards are
technical standards (e.g., specifications
of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling
procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or
adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies. This rule does not use
technical standards. Therefore, we did
not consider the use of voluntary
consensus standards.
J. Environment
EAC analyzed this final rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023–01 which
guides EAC in complying with the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4365),
and concluded that this rule is part of
a category of actions described in item
A3 of Table 1 in Appendix A of the
Management Directive. This proposed
rulemaking would not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on
the human environment and, therefore,
neither an environmental assessment
nor an environmental impact statement
is necessary.
K. Congressional Review Act
EAC will submit this final rule to
Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to the
Congressional Review Act. The rule is
effective upon publication, as permitted
by 5 U.S.C. 808. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
808(2), EAC finds that good cause exists
for making this rule effective upon
publication in the Federal Register,
based on the reasons cited in the
preceding paragraph for the 553(b)(3)(B)
determination.

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Federal Aviation
Administration amends the
airworthiness standards applicable to
transport category airplanes to clarify
that flying at or below the design
maneuvering speed does not allow a
pilot to make multiple large control
inputs in one airplane axis or single full
control inputs in more than one airplane
axis at a time without endangering the
airplane’s structure. The FAA is issuing
this final rule to prevent pilots from
misunderstanding the meaning of an
airplane’s maneuvering speed, which
could cause or contribute to a future

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority for This Rulemaking
The FAA’s authority to issue rules on
aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the
United States Code. Subtitle I, 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 III, Section
44701, ‘‘General requirements.’’ Under
that section, the FAA is charged with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in
air commerce by prescribing minimum
standards required in the interest of
safety for the design and performance of
aircraft. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority because it
prescribes new safety standards for the
design of transport category airplanes.
I. Background
A. Statement of the Problem
On November 12, 2001, American
Airlines Flight 587, an Airbus Industrie
Model A300–605R airplane, crashed
shortly after takeoff from New York’s
John F. Kennedy International Airport.
All 260 people aboard the airplane and
5 people on the ground were killed. The
airplane was destroyed by impact forces
and a post-crash fire. The National
Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)
determined ‘‘that the probable cause of
this accident was the in-flight
separation of the vertical stabilizer as a
result of the loads beyond ultimate
design loads that were created by the
first officer’s unnecessary and excessive
rudder pedal inputs.’’
The NTSB’s investigation revealed
that many pilots might have a general
misunderstanding of what the design
maneuvering speed (VA) is and the
extent of structural protection that exists
when an airplane is operated at speeds
below its VA. VA is a structural design
airspeed used in determining the
strength requirements for the airplane
and its control surfaces. The structural
design requirements do not cover
multiple control inputs in one axis or
control inputs in more than one axis at
a time at any speed, even below VA.
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
49815
The NTSB found that many pilots of
transport category airplanes mistakenly
believe that, as long as the airplane’s
speed is below VA, they can make any
control input they desire without
risking structural damage to the
airplane. As a result, the NTSB
recommended that the FAA amend all
relevant regulatory and advisory
materials to clarify that operating at or
below maneuvering speed does not
provide structural protection against
multiple full control inputs in one axis
or full control inputs in more than one
axis at the same time.1 After making our
own assessment, the FAA agrees with
the NTSB’s finding and the resulting
recommendation.
B. Summary of the NPRM
This final rule is based on a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM), Notice
No. 09–10, published in the Federal
Register on September 4, 2009 (74 FR
45777). In the NPRM, we proposed to
amend 14 CFR 25.1583(a)(3) to change
the requirement associated with a
statement that must be furnished in the
Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)
explaining the use of VA to pilots. The
proposed amendment was intended to
clarify that, depending on the particular
airplane design, flying at or below VA
does not allow a pilot to make multiple
large control inputs in one airplane axis
or single full control inputs in more
than one airplane axis at a time without
endangering the airplane’s structure.
The comment period for the NPRM
closed on November 3, 2009.
C. Summary of the Final Rule
The FAA is adopting this final rule to
prevent pilots from misunderstanding
the meaning of VA, which could cause
or contribute to a future accident. The
final rule adopts clarifying changes to
certain statements that must be
furnished in each AFM identifying the
types of control inputs to avoid because
they may result in structural failure.
This final rule adopts the proposed
rule with minor changes that will
resolve a longstanding inconsistency in
the current requirements that would
have been left in place by the proposed
rule. This inconsistency, which goes
back to at least the 1953 Civil Air
Regulations Part 4b, concerns the
reference to ‘‘maneuvering speed VA’’ in
the existing § 25.1583(a)(3). Sections 1.2
and 25.335(c) define ‘‘VA’’ as the ‘‘design
maneuvering speed,’’ not the
‘‘maneuvering speed.’’ Section 25.1507
defines the ‘‘maneuvering speed’’ as an

Change of Address
AGENCY: United States Election Assistance Commission (EAC).
ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is amending its
regulations to reflect a change of address for its headquarters. This
technical amendment is a nomenclature change that updates and corrects
the address for contacting and submitting requests to EAC headquarters.
DATES: August 16, 2010.
ADDRESSES: 1201 New York Avenue, NW., Suite 300, Washington, DC 20005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tamar Nedzar, Associate General
Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission, 1201 New York Avenue,
NW., Suite 300, Washington, DC 20005; Telephone: 202-566-3100.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 22, 2010, EAC's Headquarters
relocated from 1225 New York Ave, NW., Suite 1100, Washington, DC 20005
to 1201 New York Ave, NW., Suite 300, Washington, DC 20005. This
address will appear as EAC's official agency address and serve as the
reception point for agency visitors. Telephone numbers for EAC
employees have not changed.
I. Statutory Authority
This action is taken under EAC's authority, at 5 U.S.C. 552, to
publish regulations in the Federal Register. Under the Administrative
Procedure Act, at 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), statutory procedures for
agency rulemaking do not apply ``when the agency for good cause finds
(and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of reasons
therefore in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure thereon
are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.''
EAC finds that such notice and public procedure are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest, on the grounds that:
(1) These amendments are technical and non-substantive; and (2) the
public benefits from timely notification of a change in the official
agency address, and further delay is unnecessary and contrary to the
public interest. Similarly, because this final rule makes no
substantive changes and merely reflects a change of address in existing
regulations, this final rule is not subject to the effective date
limitation of 5 U.S.C. 553(d).
II. Regulatory Procedures
A. Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), EAC has
determined that this rule would not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities. The regulation affects only
the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. This rule does not require a
general notice of proposed rulemaking and, therefore, is exempt from
the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
B. Collection of Information
This regulation contains no new information collection requirements
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under the
[[Page 49814]]
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
C. Federalism
A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. EAC analyzed this rule under that
Executive Order and have determined that it does not have implications
for federalism.
D. Taking of Private Property
This rule will not affect a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.
E. Civil Justice Reform
This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.
F. Protection of Children
EAC analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection of
Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is
not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.
G. Indian Tribal Governments
This rule does not have Tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian Tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian Tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes.
H. Energy Effects
EAC analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy.
I. Technical Standards
The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through OMB, with an explanation of why using these standards would be
inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary
consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., specifications of
materials, performance, design, or operation; test methods; sampling
procedures; and related management systems practices) that are
developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. This rule
does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the
use of voluntary consensus standards.
J. Environment
EAC analyzed this final rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 which guides EAC in complying with the
National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4365),
and concluded that this rule is part of a category of actions described
in item A3 of Table 1 in Appendix A of the Management Directive. This
proposed rulemaking would not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human environment and, therefore, neither an
environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is
necessary.
K. Congressional Review Act
