performed covered functions, at any
time and duration, on the operator’s
jurisdictional pipeline facilities. With
this operator-contractor association rule
lodged in the programming, DAMIS
designates contractor login information
that is solely and directly associated
with the operator who has listed them
as a ‘‘covered function performing’’
contractor. DAMIS also captures one
contractor employer entry as a ‘‘data of
record’’ for accounting purposes and
avoiding duplication of data.
Eliminating these processes has the
possible unintended consequence of
degrading data security or forcing the
agency to create a login process that is
complicated, requiring additional
processes such as contractor
registration, to assure data integrity.
The suggestion for developing a
process for downloading a DAMIS file
onto a transportation employer’s
computer server and then uploading it
back to DAMIS while laudable is replete
with potential IT security challenges.
Among them are: Providing prescriptive
stakeholder data entry procedures
(especially those with limited computer
skills); programing challenges
associated with each DOT Agency; and
agency budgetary considerations for
developing such programming.
With respect to item 3, we mentioned
earlier DAMIS is an on-line portal to the
electronic MIS form. Because of the
nature of the each transportation
industry, each DOT Agency may require
different log-in and setup procedures to
ensure the accountability by those
entities required to submit MIS
information. These administrative
procedures are external to the actual
completion of the MIS form and are
independent of the estimated time to
actually enter the MIS data once in
DAMIS.
In the DOT Agency example, PHMSA
is being cited as duplicating the
reporting requirements for contractor
employers. Each contractor login
designation is uniquely associated with
the operator employer who has
identified them in the DAMIS electronic
reporting system. This reporting
association is consistent with PHMSA
regulatory mandate regarding operator
monitoring and reporting requirements
under Title 49 CFR part 199, 199.115
and 245, which address contractor
covered employees.
With respect to item 4, while we
recognized the value of MIS provider
service performed by C/TPAs,
accommodating them for business
process efficiency, with a single login,
presents significant potential risk to
maintaining data integrity and security.
Moreover, current regulations assign

accountability and responsibility on the
employer for MIS reporting.
With regard to entering multiple
contractor MIS data under the PHMSA
regulation, operator employers, or their
designated C/TPAs, always had the
option of issuing the DAMIS unique
user name and password to these
contractors, and then allowing them to
enter their data directly into DAMIS.
This option is utilized effectively with
DOT/FTA grantees/grantors, which
allows for shared responsibility for this
MIS information. In similar fashion, the
pipeline safety operator employer, or
their designated C/TPA, can monitor
contractor employers’ submissions for
data review and approval. Utilizing this
process could alleviate the number of
contractor MIS data has to be physically
entered by operator employers or their
C/TPA.

is reviewing a proposed Noise
Compatibility Program that was

provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47504 et seq (the
Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement
Act hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’)
and 14 CFR part 150 by the Lee County
Port Authority. This program was
submitted subsequent to a
determination by FAA that the
associated Noise Exposure Maps
submitted under 14 CFR part 150 for the
Southwest Florida International Airport
were in compliance with applicable
requirements effective February 8, 2013,
and was published in the Federal
Register on February 8, 2013. The
proposed Noise Compatibility Program
will be approved or disapproved on or
before April 19, 2014.
DATES: Effective Date: The effective date
of the start of FAA’s review of the
associated noise compatibility program
is October 21, 2013. The public
comment period ends December 20,
2013.

Allan Nagy, Federal Aviation
Administration, Orlando Airports
District Office, 5950 Hazeltine National

compatibility program should also be
submitted to the above office.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA is
reviewing a proposed Noise
Compatibility Program for Southwest
Florida International Airport which will
be approved or disapproved on or before
April 19, 2014. This notice also
announces the availability of this
program for public review and
comment.
An airport operator who has
submitted Noise Exposure Maps that are
found by FAA to be in compliance with
the requirements of Title 14 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 150, may
submit a Noise Compatibility Program
for FAA approval which sets forth the
measures the operator has taken or
proposes to reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent the
introduction of additional noncompatible uses.
The FAA has formally received the
Noise Compatibility Program for
Southwest Florida International Airport,
effective on October 21, 2013. The
airport operator has requested that the
FAA review this material and that the
noise mitigation measures, to be
implemented jointly by the airport and
surrounding communities, be approved
as a Noise Compatibility Program under
Section 47504 of the Act. Preliminary
review of the submitted material
indicates that it conforms to the
E:\FR\FM\28OCN1.SGM
28OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 208 / Monday, October 28, 2013 / Notices
requirements for the submittal of Noise
Compatibility Programs, but that further
review will be necessary prior to
approval or disapproval of the program.
The formal review period, limited by
law to a maximum of 180 days, will be
completed on or before April 19, 2014.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of 14
CFR Part 150, Section 150.33. The
primary considerations in the
evaluation process are whether the
proposed measures may reduce the level
of aviation safety or create an undue
burden on interstate or foreign
commerce, and whether they are
reasonably consistent with obtaining the
goal of reducing existing noncompatible land uses and preventing the
introduction of additional noncompatible land uses.
Interested persons are invited to
comment on the proposed program with
specific reference to these factors. All
comments relating to these factors, other
than those properly addressed to local
land use authorities, will be considered
by the FAA to the extent practicable.
Copies of the Noise Exposure Maps, the
FAA’s evaluation of the maps, and the
proposed Noise Compatibility Program
are available for examination at the
following locations: Federal Aviation
Administration, Orlando Airports
District Office, 5950 Hazeltine National

County, Tennessee, is being rescinded.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
FHWA, in cooperation with the
Tennessee Department of
Transportation, is rescinding the notice
of intent to prepare an EIS for the
proposed State Route 71, South
Knoxville Boulevard (James White
Parkway) from near the existing
Chapman Highway/Governor John
Sevier Highway interchange to Moody
Avenue. The proposed project was
approximately 5 miles in length.
The FHWA approved the Draft EIS
(DEIS) on September 28, 2012. The
project as described in the DEIS was to
provide an efficient and safe
transportation facility that would
enhance transportation service by
improving access in the South Knoxville
area and help relieve traffic congestion
on Chapman Highway. During the DEIS
process, TDOT conducted public
involvement and agency coordination,
developed a purpose and need for the
project, and developed preliminary
alternatives. The preliminary
alternatives included a No-Build
alternative, and three build alternatives
on new location east of the Chapman
Highway/Governor John Sevier
Highway interchange and extending
north westward to the existing State
Route 71, South Knoxville Boulevard
(James White Parkway) terminus at
Moody Avenue.
After consideration of public
comments, the Knoxville Regional
Transportation Planning Organization
(TPO) removed the project from their
draft Fiscal Year (FY) 2014–2017
Transportation Improvement Program
(TIP) in August of 2013. Subsequently,
the FY 2014–2017 Knoxville TIP was
adopted by the TPO Executive Board on
October 16, 2013, and did not include
the State Route 71 project. Based on the
Knoxville Regional TPO’s intent to not
advance the State Route 71 project,
TDOT is terminating future
development of the EIS.
Comments and questions concerning
the proposed action should be directed
to FHWA at the address provided above.
