Oil Pollution Prevention; Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Rule-Compliance Date Amendment for Farms, 64296-64297 [2011-27045]

Download as PDF 64296 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 201 / Tuesday, October 18, 2011 / Proposed Rules srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS Administration, room 350, 1701 Columbia Avenue, College Park, Georgia 30337. Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future NPRMs should contact the FAA’s Office of Rulemaking, (202) 267–9677, to request a copy of Advisory circular No. 11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking distribution System, which describes the application procedure. The Proposal The FAA is considering an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to amend Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface to support new Standard Instrument Approach Procedures developed at Tri-State/ Milton J Ferguson Field Airport, Huntington, WV. Airspace reconfiguration is necessary due to the decommissioning of the Huntt NDB and cancellation of the NDB approach, and for continued safety and management of IFR operations at the airport. The geographic coordinates of the airport also would be adjusted to coincide with the FAAs aeronautical database. Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9V, dated August 9, 2011, and effective September 15, 2011, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace designation listed in this document will 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:08 Oct 17, 2011 Jkt 226001 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 amend Class E airspace at TriState/Milton J Ferguson Field Airport, Huntington, WV. Lists of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air). The Proposed Amendment In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation Administration proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as follows: PART 71—DESIGNATION OF CLASS A, B, C, D, AND E AIRSPACE AREAS; AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE ROUTES; AND REPORTING POINTS 1. The authority citation for part 71 continues to read as follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g); 40103, 40113, 40120; E.O. 10854, 24 FR 9565, 3 CFR, 1959– 1963 Comp., p. 389. § 71.1 [Amended] 2. The incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 of Federal Aviation Administration Order 7400.9V, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 9, 2011, effective September 15, 2011, is amended as follows: Paragraph 6005 Class E airspace areas extending upward from 700 feet or more above the surface of the earth. * * * AEA WV E * * Huntington, WV Tri-State/Milton J. Ferguson Field Airport, Huntington, WV (Lat. 38°22′02″ N., long. 82°33′52″ W.)

This action further extends the compliance date to May 10, 2013 for farms as defined in 40 CFR 112.2. EPA is not extending the compliance date for any other facilities. The Agency recognizes that some facilities excluded from the extension of the compliance date may still require additional time to amend or prepare their SPCC Plans as a result of either non-availability of qualified personnel, or delays in construction or equipment delivery beyond the control and without the fault of the owner or operator.

[[Page 64297]]

I. Why is EPA issuing this proposed rule?

    This document proposes to take action on the date by which farms as 
defined in 40 CFR part 112 must prepare or amend, and implement their 
Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plans. We have 
published a direct final rule to amend that date to May 10, 2013 in the 
``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register because we 
view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse 
comment. We have explained our reasons for this action in the preamble 
to the direct final rule.
    If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action 
on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw 
the direct final rule and it will not take effect. We would address all 
public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed 
rule.
    We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this 
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.

III. What does this amendment do?

    This proposed rule amends the date by which farms as defined in 40 
CFR part 112 must prepare or amend, and implement their Spill 
Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plans to May 10, 2013.
    On June 19, 2009 (74 FR 29136), EPA issued a final rule in the 
Federal Register that amended the dates by which facilities must 
prepare or amend their SPCC Plans, and implement those Plans to 
November 10, 2010. Then on October 14, 2010 (75 FR 63093), EPA issued a 
final rule in the Federal Register with a new compliance date of 
November 10, 2011, by which certain facilities must prepare or amend 
and implement their SPCC Plans, providing an additional year for the 
remaining facilities. This action further extends the compliance date 
to May 10, 2013 for farms as defined in 40 CFR 112.2. EPA is not 
extending the compliance date for any other facilities. The Agency 
recognizes that some facilities excluded from the extension of the 
compliance date may still require additional time to amend or prepare 
their SPCC Plans as a result of either non-availability of qualified 
personnel, or delays in construction or equipment delivery beyond the 
control and without the fault of the owner or operator. If so, the 
owner or operator of the facility may submit a written request for 
additional time to amend or prepare a SPCC Plan to the Regional 
Administrator in accordance with Sec.  112.3(f).

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
