SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
History
On September 14, 2012, the FAA
published in the Federal Register a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
to amend Class E airspace for the Sault
Ste Marie, ON, area, amending
controlled airspace at Sault Ste Marie
Airport (77 FR 56796) Docket No. FAA–
2012–0791. Interested parties were
invited to participate in this rulemaking
effort by submitting written comments
on the proposal to the FAA. No
comments were received. Class E

airspace designations are published in
paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9W
dated August 8, 2012, and effective
September 15, 2012, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designations
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.
The Rule
This action amends Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
amending Class E airspace designated as
an extension to Class D at Sault Ste
Marie Airport, Sault Ste Marie, ON, to
coincide with that portion of the control
zone in Canadian airspace. This action
is necessary for the safety and
management of IFR operations at the
airport.
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. Therefore, this regulation: (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 amends
controlled airspace at Sault Ste Marie
Airport, Sault Ste Marie, ON.

action qualifies for categorical exclusion

Commission
SUMMARY: The Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (Commission) is
amending its regulations which
establish standards for business
practices and electronic
communications for public utilities to
incorporate by reference updated
business practice standards adopted by
the Wholesale Electric Quadrant of the
North American Energy Standards
Board to categorize various products
and services for demand response and
energy efficiency and to support the
measurement and verification of these
products and services in organized
wholesale electric markets. These
standards provide common definitions
and processes regarding demand
response and energy efficiency products
in organized wholesale electric markets
where such products are offered. The
standards also require each regional
transmission organization (RTO) and
independent system operator (ISO) to
address in the RTO or ISO’s governing
documents the performance evaluation
methods to be used for demand
response and energy efficiency
products. The standards thereby
facilitate the ability of demand response
and energy efficiency providers to
participate in organized wholesale
electric markets, reducing transaction
costs and providing an opportunity for
more customers to participate in these
programs, especially for customers that
operate in more than one organized
market.
This rule will become effective
May 6, 2013. Dates for implementation
of the standards are provided in the
Final Rule. This incorporation by
reference of certain publications in the
rule is approved by the Director of the
Federal Register as of May 6, 2013.
