Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 205 / Wednesday, October 23, 2013 / Notices
Order to be kept secret in the interest of
national defense or the conduct of
foreign affairs.
Retaliation against a USDOT
employee or applicant for making a
protected disclosure is prohibited (5
U.S.C. 2302(b)(8)). If you believe you are
a victim of whistleblower retaliation,
you may file a written complaint with
the U.S. Office of Special Counsel at
1730 M Street NW., Suite 218,
Washington, DC 202–036–4505 using
Form OSC–11. Alternatively, you may
file online through the OSC Web site at
https://www.osc.gov.
Disciplinary Actions
Under existing laws, USDOT retains
the right, where appropriate, to
discipline a USDOT employee who
engages in conduct that is inconsistent
with Federal Antidiscrimination and
Whistleblower Protection laws up to
and including removal from Federal
service. If OSC initiates an investigation
under 5 U.S.C. 1214 according to 5
U.S.C. 1214(f), USDOT must seek
approval from the Special Counsel to
discipline employees for, among other
activities, engaging in prohibited
retaliation. Nothing in the No FEAR Act
alters existing laws, or permits an
agency to take unfounded disciplinary
action against a USDOT employee, or to
violate the procedural rights of a
USDOT employee accused of
discrimination.
Additional Information
For more information regarding the
No FEAR Act regulations, refer to 5 CFR
part 724, as well as the appropriate
office(s) within your agency (e.g., EEO/
civil rights offices, human resources
offices, or legal offices). You can find
additional information regarding
Federal antidiscrimination,
whistleblower protection, and
retaliation laws at the EEOC Web site at
https://www.eeoc.gov and the OSC Web
site at https://www.osc.gov.

Interim Policy, FAA Review of Solar
Energy System Projects on Federally
Obligated Airports
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of interim policy;
opportunity to comment.
AGENCY:
This notice establishes
interim FAA policy for proposals by
sponsors of federally obligated airports
to construct solar energy systems on
airport property. FAA is adopting an
interim policy because it is in the public
interest to enhance safety by clarifying
and adding standards for measuring
ocular impact of proposed solar energy
systems which are effective upon
publication. FAA will consider
comments and make appropriate
modifications before issuing a final
policy. The policy applies to any
proposed on-airport solar energy system
that has not received from the FAA
either an unconditional airport layout
plan approval or a ‘‘no objection’’
finding on a Notice of Proposed
Construction or Alteration Form
7460–1.
DATES: The effective date of this interim
policy is October 23, 2013.
Comments must be received by
November 22, 2013.
ADDRESSES: You can get an electronic
copy of the interim policy and the
comment form on the FAA Airports
Web site at https://www.faa.gov/airports/

Authority for the Policy
This notice is published under the
authority described in Subtitle VII, part
B, chapter 471, section 47122 of title 49
United States Code.
Background
There is growing interest in installing
solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar hot
water (SHW) systems on airports. While
solar PV or SHW systems (henceforth
referred to as solar energy systems) are
designed to absorb solar energy to
maximize electrical energy production
or the heating of water, in certain
situations the glass surfaces of the solar
energy systems can reflect sunlight and
produce glint (a momentary flash of
bright light) and glare (a continuous
source of bright light). In conjunction
PO 00000
Frm 00119
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
with the United States Department of
Energy (DOE), the FAA has determined
that glint and glare from solar energy
systems could result in an ocular impact
to pilots and/or air traffic control (ATC)
facilities and compromise the safety of
the air transportation system. While the
FAA supports solar energy systems on
airports, the FAA seeks to ensure safety
by eliminating the potential for ocular
impact to pilots and/or air traffic control
facilities due to glare from such projects.
The FAA established a crossorganizational working group in 2012,
to establish a standard for measuring
glint and glare, and clear thresholds for
when glint and glare would impact
aviation safety. The standards that this
working group developed are set forth
in this notice.
A sponsor of a federally-obligated
airport must request FAA review and
approval to depict certain proposed
solar installations (e.g., ground-based
installations and collocated installations
that increase the footprint of the
collocated building or structure) on its
airport layout plan (ALP), before
construction begins.1 A sponsor of a
federally-obligated airport must notify
the FAA of its intent to construct any
solar installation 2 by filing FAA Form
7460–1, ‘‘Notice of Proposed
Construction or Alteration’’ under 14
CFR Part 77 for a Non-Rulemaking case
(NRA) 3 4. This includes the intent to
permit airport tenants, including
Federal agencies, to build such
1 FAA Technical Guidance for Evaluating
Selected Solar Technologies on Airports, Section
2.3.5, states that ‘‘solar installations of any size,
located on an airport, that are not collocated on an
existing structure (i.e., roof of an existing building)
and require a new footprint, need to be shown on
the Airport Layout Plan (ALP). Collocated solar
installations need to be shown on the ALP only if
these installations substantially change the
footprint of the collocated building or structure.
Available at: https://www.faa.gov/airports/
environmental/policy_guidance/media/
airport_solar_guide_print.pdf. Title 49 of the United
States Code (USC), sec. 47107(a), requires, in part,
a current ALP approved by the FAA prior to the
approval of an airport development project. See
Grant Assurance No. 29, AC No. 150/5070–6B, and
FAA Order No. 5100.38.
2 Any solar installation means any ground-based
solar energy installation and those solar energy
installations collocated with a building or structure
(i.e., rooftop installations).
3 FAA Technical Guidance for Evaluating
Selected Solar Technologies on Airports Section 3.1
reads in part ‘‘All solar projects at airports must
submit to FAA a Notice of Proposed Construction
Form 7460 . . .’’. This section further states ‘‘Even
if the project will be roof mounted . . . the sponsor
must still submit a case’’ [i.e., file a Form 7460–1].
4 The requirements of this policy are not
mandatory for a proposed solar installation that is
not on an airport and for which a form 7460–1 is
filed under part 77 and is studied under the
Obstruction Evaluation Program. However, the FAA
urges proponents of off-airport solar-installations to
voluntarily implement the provisions in this policy.
