regarding or objections to the temporary
increase to FHFA within 15 days or
such other period as the Director
determines appropriate under the
circumstances. The Director may
determine to modify, delay, or rescind
the announced temporary increase in
response to such comments or objection,
but no further notice is required for the
temporary increase to become effective
upon the date originally determined by
the Director.
(c) Communication. The Director shall
transmit notice of a temporary increase
or rescission of a temporary increase in
the minimum capital level in writing,
using electronic or such other means as
appropriate. Such communication shall
set forth, at a minimum, the bases for
the Director’s determination, the
amount of increase or decrease in the
minimum capital level, the anticipated
duration of such increase, and a
description of the procedures for
requesting a rescission of the temporary
increase in the minimum capital level.
(d) Written plan. In making a finding
under this part, the Director may require
a written plan to augment capital to be
submitted on a timely basis to address
the methods by which such temporary
increase may be attained and the time
period for reaching the new temporary
minimum capital level.
(e) Time frame for review of
temporary increase for purpose of
rescission.—(1) Absent an earlier
determination to rescind in whole or in
part a temporary increase in the
minimum capital level for a regulated
entity or entities, the Director shall no
less than every 12 months, consider the
need to maintain, modify, or rescind
such increase.
(2) A regulated entity or regulated
entities may at any time request in
writing such review by the Director.

Standards and factors.
(a) Standard for imposing a temporary
increase. In making a determination to
increase temporarily a minimum capital
requirement for a regulated entity or
entities, the Director will consider the
necessity and consistency of such an
increase with the prudential regulation
and the safe and sound operations of a
regulated entity. The Director may
impose a temporary minimum-capital
increase if consideration of one or more
of the following factors leads the
Director to the judgment that the current
minimum capital requirement for a
regulated entity is insufficient to
address the entity’s risks:
(1) Current or anticipated declines in
the value of assets held by a regulated
entity; the amounts of mortgage-backed
securities issued or guaranteed by the
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
regulated entity; and, its ability to
access liquidity and funding;
(2) Credit (including counterparty),
market, operational and other risks
facing a regulated entity, especially
where an increase in risks is foreseeable
and consequential;
(3) Current or projected declines in
the capital held by a regulated entity;
(4) A regulated entity’s material noncompliance with regulations, written
orders, or agreements;
(5) Housing finance market
conditions;
(6) Level of reserves or retained
earnings;
(7) Initiatives, operations, products, or
practices that entail heightened risk;
(8) With respect to a Bank, the ratio
of the market value of its equity to par
value of its capital stock where the
market value of equity is the value
calculated and reported by the Bank as
‘‘market value of total capital’’ under 12
CFR 932.5(a)(1)(ii)(A); or
(9) Other conditions as detailed by the
Director in the notice provided under
§ 1225.3.
(b) Standard for rescission of a
temporary increase. In making a
determination to rescind a temporary
increase in the minimum capital level
for a regulated entity or entities,
whether in full or in part, the Director
will consider the consistency of such a
rescission with the prudential
regulation and safe and sound
operations of a regulated entity. The
Director will rescind, in full or in part,
a temporary minimum capital increase
if consideration of one or more of the
following factors leads the Director to
the judgment that rescission of a
temporary minimum-capital increase for
a regulated entity is appropriate
considering the entity’s risks:
(1) Changes to the circumstances or
facts that led to the imposition of a
temporary increase in the minimum
capital levels;
(2) The meeting of targets set for a
regulated entity in advance of any
capital or capital-related plan agreed to
by the Director;
(3) Changed circumstances or facts
based on new developments occurring
since the imposition of the temporary
increase in the minimum capital level,
particularly where the original problems
or concerns have been successfully
addressed or alleviated in whole or in
part; or
(4) Such other standard as the
Director may consider as detailed by the
Director in the notice provided under

14 CFR Part 95
[Docket No. 30769; Amdt. No. 492]
IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous
Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This amendment adopts
miscellaneous amendments to the
required IFR (instrument flight rules)
altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or
direct routes for which a minimum or
maximum en route authorized IFR
altitude is prescribed. This regulatory
action is needed because of changes
occurring in the National Airspace
System. These changes are designed to
provide for the safe and efficient use of
the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.
DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC, March
10, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95)
amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all
aircraft in flight over a specified route
or any portion of that route, as well as
the changeover points (COPs) for
Federal airways, jet routes, or direct
routes as prescribed in part 95.
SUMMARY:
The Rule
The specified IFR altitudes, when
used in conjunction with the prescribed
changeover points for those routes,
ensure navigation aid coverage that is

adequate for safe flight operations and
free of frequency interference. The
reasons and circumstances that create
the need for this amendment involve
matters of flight safety and operational
efficiency in the National Airspace
System, are related to published
aeronautical charts that are essential to
the user, and provide for the safe and
efficient use of the navigable airspace.
In addition, those various reasons or
circumstances require making this
amendment effective before the next
scheduled charting and publication date
of the flight information to assure its
timely availability to the user. The
effective date of this amendment reflects
those considerations. In view of the
close and immediate relationship
between these regulatory changes and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure before adopting
this amendment are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and that
good cause exists for making the
amendment effective in less than 30
days.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 95
Conclusion
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. 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. For the same reason, the
FAA certifies that this amendment will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
Issued in Washington, DC, on February 4,
2011.

Adoption of the Amendment
Accordingly, pursuant to the
authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95) is
amended as follows effective at 0901
UTC, March 10, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
California Department of Transportation
has requested a temporary change to the
operation of the Tower Drawbridge,
mile 59.0, Sacramento River, at
Sacramento, CA. The Tower Drawbridge
navigation span provides a vertical
clearance of 30 feet above Mean High
Water in the closed-to-navigation
position. The draw opens on signal from
May 1 through October 31 from 6 a.m.
to 10 p.m. and from November 1
through April 30 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
At all other times the draw shall open
on signal if at least four hours notice is
given, as required by 33 CFR 117.189(a).
Navigation on the waterway is
commercial and recreational.
The drawspan will be secured in the
closed-to-navigation position from 7:45
a.m. to 1:05 p.m. on March 13, 2011 to
allow the community to participate in
the 7th Annual Shamrock Half
Marathon. This temporary deviation has
been coordinated with waterway users.
There are no scheduled river boat
cruises or anticipated levee
maintenance during this deviation
period. No objections to the proposed
temporary deviation were raised.
Vessels that can transit the bridge,
while in the closed-to-navigation
position, may continue to do so at any
time. In the event of an emergency the
drawspan can be opened with 15
minutes advance notice.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the

14 CFR Part 95
[Docket No. 30769; Amdt. No. 492]
IFR Altitudes; Miscellaneous Amendments
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This amendment adopts miscellaneous amendments to the required
IFR (instrument flight rules) altitudes and changeover points for
certain Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes for which a
minimum or maximum en route authorized IFR altitude is prescribed. This
regulatory action is needed because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System. These changes are designed to provide for the
safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace under instrument
conditions in the affected areas.
DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC, March 10, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Harry Hodges, Flight Procedure
Standards Branch (AMCAFS-420), Flight Technologies and Programs
Division, Flight Standards Service, Federal Aviation Administration,
Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, 6500 South MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma
City, OK 73169 (Mail Address: P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, OK 73125)
telephone: (405) 954-4164.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This amendment to part 95 of the Federal
Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 95) amends, suspends, or revokes IFR
altitudes governing the operation of all aircraft in flight over a
specified route or any portion of that route, as well as the changeover
points (COPs) for Federal airways, jet routes, or direct routes as
prescribed in part 95.
The Rule
The specified IFR altitudes, when used in conjunction with the
prescribed changeover points for those routes, ensure navigation aid
coverage that is
[[Page 11676]]
adequate for safe flight operations and free of frequency interference.
The reasons and circumstances that create the need for this amendment
involve matters of flight safety and operational efficiency in the
National Airspace System, are related to published aeronautical charts
that are essential to the user, and provide for the safe and efficient
use of the navigable airspace. In addition, those various reasons or
circumstances require making this amendment effective before the next
scheduled charting and publication date of the flight information to
assure its timely availability to the user. The effective date of this
amendment reflects those considerations. In view of the close and
immediate relationship between these regulatory changes and safety in
air commerce, I find that notice and public procedure before adopting
this amendment are impracticable and contrary to the public interest
and that good cause exists for making the amendment effective in less
than 30 days.
Conclusion
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.
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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
