Supplement 1 to MSB No. 569A, dated May
27, 2009, which corrected the date of affected
engine models, to January 1, 1997. We are
issuing this AD to prevent failure of the
crankshaft, which will result in total engine
power loss, in-flight engine failure, and
possible loss of the aircraft.
Compliance
(e) You are responsible for having the
actions required by this AD performed within
the compliance times specified unless the
actions have already been done.

The Proposal
The FAA is considering an
amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish
Class D airspace extending upward from
the surface to 2,800 feet MSL within a
5-mile radius of Frederick Municipal
Airport. Class E surface area airspace,
within a 5-mile radius of the airport and
Class E airspace designated as an
extension to Class D surface area.
Controlled airspace is necessary for the
new RNAV GPS standard instrument
approach procedures developed for the
airport and for continued safety and
management of IFR operations at
Frederick Municipal Airport.
Designations for Class D and E
airspace areas are published in
Paragraphs 5000, 6002 and 6004
respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9U,
dated August 18, 2010, and effective
September 15, 2010, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D and E airspace
designations listed in this document
would be published subsequently in the
Order.
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
proposed rule, when promulgated,
would 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 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 proposed 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
proposed regulation is within the scope
of that authority as it would establish

International Services Surveys:
Amendments to the BE–120,
Benchmark Survey of Transactions in
Selected Services and Intangible
Assets With Foreign Persons
Bureau of Economic Analysis,
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
This proposed rule would
amend the regulations of the Bureau of
Economic Analysis, Department of
Commerce (BEA) to set forth the
reporting requirements for the BE–120,
Benchmark Survey of Transactions in
Selected Services and Intellectual
Property with Foreign Persons. The
proposed BE–120 would include both
definition changes and the addition of
three schedules to better collect data in
accordance with new international
standards. In addition, this proposed
rule would change the BE–120 survey
title from ‘‘Benchmark Survey of
Transactions in Selected Services and
Intangible Assets with Foreign Persons’’
to ‘‘Benchmark Survey of Transactions
in Selected Services and Intellectual
Property with Foreign Persons’’ because
the term ‘‘intellectual property’’ is better
understood by U.S. respondents.
The proposed BE–120 survey is
intended to cover transactions in
selected services and intellectual
property with foreign persons in
benchmark years. In non-benchmark
years, the universe estimates for these
transactions would be derived from
sample data reported on BEA’s followon survey, which is the Quarterly
Survey of Transactions in Selected
Services and Intangible Assets with
Foreign Persons (BE–125).

The data will be used by BEA to
estimate the trade in services
component of the U.S. International
Transactions Accounts and other
economic accounts compiled by BEA.
The data are also needed by the U.S.
government to monitor U.S. exports and
imports of selected services and
intellectual property; analyze their
impact on the U.S. and foreign
economies; support U.S. international
trade policy for selected services and
intellectual property; and assess and
promote U.S. competitiveness in
international trade in services. In
addition, the data will improve the
ability of U.S. businesses to identify and
evaluate market opportunities.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
proposed rule would amend 15 CFR
801.10 to update certain reporting
requirements for the BE–120,
Benchmark Survey of Transactions in
Selected Services and Intangible Assets
with Foreign Persons. The proposed
BE–120 would include both definition
changes and the addition of three
schedules to better collect data in
accordance with new international
standards. In addition, this proposed
rule would change the title of the BE–
120 survey and make other
nonsubstantive format changes to the
regulations.
The Department of Commerce, as part
of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on
proposed and/or continuing information
collections, as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Description of Changes
The BE–120 survey as proposed in
this rule would be conducted by BEA
every five years beginning with
transactions occurring in fiscal year
2011, under the authority provided by
the International Investment and Trade
in Services Survey Act (Pub. L. 94–472,
90 Stat. 2059, 22 U.S.C. 3101–3108),
hereinafter, ‘‘the Act,’’ and would be
mandatory for those U.S. persons that
engage in the covered transactions in
amounts that exceed the exemption
level. The proposed BE–120 survey is
intended to cover sales to foreign
persons of any of the 36 types of
services or intellectual property listed in
proposed paragraph 801.10(c) in
benchmark years. In non-benchmark
years, the universe estimates for these
transactions would be derived from
sample data reported on BEA’s followon survey, which is the Quarterly
Survey of Transactions in Selected
Services and Intangible Assets with
Foreign Persons (BE–125). If this
proposed rule is implemented, BEA
would send the survey to potential
respondents in March of 2012;
responses would be due by June 30,
2012.

upward from the surface to 2,800 feet MSL within a 5-mile radius of
Frederick Municipal Airport. Class E surface area airspace, within a 5-
mile radius of the airport and Class E airspace designated as an
extension to Class D surface area. Controlled airspace is necessary for
the new RNAV GPS standard instrument approach procedures developed for
the airport and for continued safety and management of IFR operations
at Frederick Municipal Airport.
Designations for Class D and E airspace areas are published in
Paragraphs 5000, 6002 and 6004 respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9U,
dated August 18, 2010, and effective September 15, 2010, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class D and E airspace
designations listed in this document would be published subsequently in
the Order.
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 proposed rule, when promulgated, would 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 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 proposed 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 proposed regulation is within the scope
of that authority as it would establish Class D and E airspace at
Frederick Municipal Airport, Frederick, MD.
