January 10, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

We propose to supersede airworthiness directive (AD) 2013-14- 08 that applies to all Austro Engine GmbH model E4 engines. AD 2013-14- 08 requires removing from service certain part number (P/N) waste gate controllers. Since we issued AD 2013-14-08 we received several reports of power loss events due to fracture of the waste gate controller lever. This proposed AD would require removing certain P/N waste gate controllers from service. We are proposing this AD to prevent failure of the waste gate controller lever, which could lead to damage to one or more engines, loss of thrust control, and damage to the airplane.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) established the Health Information Technology Policy Committee (Health IT Policy Committee) and gave the Comptroller General responsibility for appointing 13 of its 20 members. ARRA requires that: One member should have expertise with improving the health of vulnerable populations and one member should represent information technology vendors. Due to the completion of terms in April 2014 by committee members filing these requirements GAO is accepting nominations of individuals to fill these positions. In addition, ARRA requires that three members should be advocates for patients or consumers and one committee member in this category will be completing their term in April 2014. GAO is also accepting nominations of individuals to fill this position. For these appointments I am announcing the following: Letters of nomination and resumes should be submitted between January 2 and 24, 2014 to ensure adequate opportunity for review and consideration of nominees.

This final rule responds to two petitions for reconsideration of FRA's final rule published November 30, 2011, which would have amended the existing regulations governing the on-track safety protections of roadway workers from the movement of trains or other on- track equipment on an adjacent controlled track, but which has not taken effect. In response to the petitions for reconsideration, FRA delayed the effective date of the November 30, 2011, final rule until July 1, 2013 (subsequently delayed until July 1, 2014), and requested comments on the petitions. This document further responds to the petitions, addresses the comments on the petitions, and amends and clarifies certain sections of the November 30, 2011, final rule.
