That rulemaking provides the opportunity for an informal conference with an FAA attorney before an order is issued under 14 CFR 13.20, the FAA’s regulation covering orders other than certificate action and civil penalty orders. The change is necessary to provide additional fairness and process to those persons who are subject to such an order, and is consistent with the process available in other enforcement actions. These conferences may result in either a resolution of the matter or a narrowing of the issues, thereby conserving resources for respondents and the FAA. Discussion of Comments The FAA received one comment on the immediate final rule. The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) welcomed the FAA’s amendment to § 13.20. The NBAA recognized this change provides additional fairness to those subject to an order. The NBAA acknowledged this rule as a positive change for the industry. Conclusion After consideration of the comments submitted in response to the immediate final rule, the FAA has determined that no revisions to the rule are warranted based on the comments received.

This final rule amends the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation’s regulation on Benefits Payable in Terminated Single-Employer Plans to prescribe interest assumptions under the regulation for valuation dates in November 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PBGC’s regulation on Benefits Payable in Terminated Single-Employer Plans (29 CFR part 4022) prescribes actuarial assumptions—including interest assumptions—for paying plan benefits under terminating single-employer plans covered by title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The interest assumptions in the regulation are also published on PBGC’s Web site (https://www.pbgc.gov). PBGC uses the interest assumptions in Appendix B to Part 4022 to determine whether a benefit is payable as a lump sum and to determine the amount to pay. Appendix C to Part 4022 contains interest assumptions for private-sector pension practitioners to refer to if they wish to use lump-sum interest rates determined using PBGC’s historical methodology. Currently, the rates in Appendices B and C of the benefit payment regulation are the same. The interest assumptions are intended to reflect current conditions in the financial and annuity markets. Assumptions under the benefit payments regulation are updated monthly. This final rule updates the benefit payments interest assumptions for November 2014.1 SUMMARY: 1 Appendix B to PBGC’s regulation on Allocation of Assets in Single-Employer Plans (29 CFR part 4044) prescribes interest assumptions for valuing benefits under terminating covered single-employer E:\FR\FM\15OCR1.SGM Continued 15OCR1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On August 12, 2014, the FAA published an immediate final rule 
entitled ``Orders of Compliance, Cease and Desist Orders, Orders of 
Denial, and Other Orders'' (79 FR 46964). That rulemaking provides the 
opportunity for an informal conference with an FAA attorney before an 
order is issued under 14 CFR 13.20, the FAA's regulation covering 
orders other than certificate action and civil penalty orders. The 
change is necessary to provide additional fairness and process to those 
persons who are subject to such an order, and is consistent with the 
process available in other enforcement actions. These conferences may 
result in either a resolution of the matter or a narrowing of the 
issues, thereby conserving resources for respondents and the FAA.

Discussion of Comments

    The FAA received one comment on the immediate final rule. The 
National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) welcomed the FAA's 
amendment to Sec.  13.20. The NBAA recognized this change provides 
additional fairness to those subject to an order. The NBAA acknowledged 
this rule as a positive change for the industry.

Conclusion

    After consideration of the comments submitted in response to the 
immediate final rule, the FAA has determined that no revisions to the 
rule are warranted based on the comments received.

    Issued under authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 44701(a), 
and 44707 in Washington, DC, on October 9, 2014.
