[Docket No. 31037; Amdt. No. 3661]
Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures;
Miscellaneous Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This rule establishes, amends,
suspends, or removes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures
(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff
Minimums and Obstacle Departure
Procedures (ODPs) for operations at
certain airports. These regulatory
actions are needed because of the
adoption of new or revised criteria, or
because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the
commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or
changing air traffic requirements. These
changes are designed to provide safe
and efficient use of the navigable
airspace and to promote safe flight
operations under instrument flight rules
at the affected airports.
DATES: This rule is effective October 15,
2015. The compliance date for each
SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums,
and ODP is specified in the amendatory
provisions.
The incorporation by reference of
certain publications listed in the
regulations is approved by the Director
of the Federal Register as of October 15,
2015.

This rule
amends Title 14 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by
establishing, amending, suspending, or
removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums
and/or ODPS. The complete regulatory
description of each SIAP and its
associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP
for an identified airport is listed on FAA
form documents which are incorporated
by reference in this amendment under 5
U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14
CFR part § 97.20. The applicable FAA
forms are FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–4,
8260–5, 8260–15A, and 8260–15B when
required by an entry on 8260–15A.
The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, their complex
nature, and the need for a special format
make publication in the Federal
Register expensive and impractical.
Further, airmen do not use the
regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums or ODPs, but instead refer to
their graphic depiction on charts
printed by publishers of aeronautical
materials. Thus, the advantages of
incorporation by reference are realized
and publication of the complete
description of each SIAP, Takeoff
Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This
amendment provides the affected CFRs
and specifies the types of SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs with their
applicable effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport
and its location, the procedure, and the
amendment number.

The material incorporated by
reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in
the amendatory language for part 97 of
this final rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is
effective upon publication of each
separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and
ODP as Amended in the transmittal.
Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and
textual ODP amendments may have
been issued previously by the FAA in a
Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to
Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating
directly to published aeronautical
charts.
The circumstances that created the
need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may
require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs
and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after
publication is provided.
Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the
TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the
affected airports. Because of the close
and immediate relationship between
these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find
that notice and public procedure under
5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and,
where applicable, under 5 U.S.C 553(d),
good cause exists for making some
SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
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. It, therefore—(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. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial

Federal Housing Administration (FHA):
Court of Competent Jurisdiction To
Foreclose Liens on FHA-Owned
Properties
AGENCY:
Office of the General Counsel,
HUD.
ACTION:
Interpretive rule.
The Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) generally
acquires title to single family properties
when it pays mortgage insurance
benefits to approved mortgagees. FHA’s
activities in managing and marketing
the properties it acquires include paying
real estate taxes referred to as ad
valorem taxes (a tax based on the value
of the property) and special
assessments. For properties in
condominiums or planned unit
developments, FHA also pays
homeowners’ association or
condominium association fees. During
the period over which an insured lender
forecloses and FHA becomes the owner
of the property, taxes or other fees may
become due and payable. With lenders
conveying close to 100,000 properties
annually to FHA, bills for taxes and fees
may be past due and payable at the time

of FHA’s acquisition and suits are
brought for payment of taxes and fees.
This rule provides HUD’s interpretation
of the ‘‘sue and be sued’’ clause
contained in section 1, Title I of the
National Housing Act. This rule
provides that, in the case of an action
brought against HUD to foreclose on a
lien arising out of unpaid taxes or fees,
the term ‘‘court of competent
jurisdiction’’ as used in section 1 of the
National Housing Act refers to a United
States District Court. In conjunction
with this interpretive rule, HUD is
providing, by separate notices published
in today’s Federal Register, direction to
taxing authorities and other entities
owed money as to the proper Point of
Contact (POC) at HUD for seeking
payment. In the unlikely event that
payment is not timely made, the entity
can bring an action under the Quiet
Title Act in the appropriate United
States District Court to foreclose on its
lien interest in the property.
DATES: Effective Date: October 15, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under FHA’s single family mortgage
insurance program, FHA took title to
approximately 94,500 properties in
Fiscal Year (FY) 2012 by paying
insurance claims to approved
mortgagees. In recouping its losses to
the Mutual Mortgage Insurance Fund
(MMIF), FHA manages and markets
these properties through contractors.
There is a time lag between a
mortgagee initiating and completing the
foreclosure of a defaulted insured
mortgage and FHA acquiring and
managing the property. Taxes or
Homeowners Association (HOA) or
Condominium Association (CA) fees, or
fees for special assessments may come
due and payable at the time when the
property is being conveyed to FHA (or
shortly thereafter) for the insurance
benefits. HUD issued Mortgagee Letter
2013–18 on May 31, 2013, addressing
unpaid tax and association fees.1 This
Mortgagee Letter may reduce, but not

entirely eliminate, problems FHA has
faced with unpaid taxes and fees when
FHA takes title to single family
properties. Correspondence regarding
tax and other property charges and
assessments are presently sent to a
myriad of addresses—either to FHA’s
headquarters and field offices across the
nation, or to the contractors handling
the management of the FHA properties.
If a taxing authority, HOA, CA, or
special assessment entity is unable to
obtain payment of the amounts due after
sending out notices and contacting FHA
offices and contractors, its alternative
has been to perfect a lien under
applicable local law and then attempt to
enforce the lien against the HUD owned
property by foreclosing the lien on the
property. Normally, absent the
involvement of a Federal agency, this is
accomplished under a state court
procedure, which varies greatly from
jurisdiction to jurisdiction as to the time
period in which to respond to the
summons and complaint, as well as
upon who service is required to be
made. HUD’s involvement as a Federal
government agency, however, means
that the proper venue should be in
Federal District Court. On occasion,
when actions are brought in state court,
the government’s interest cannot be
determined quickly enough for a U.S.
Attorney’s Office to timely respond to a
complaint that seeks to foreclose FHA’s
ownership interest in a property. If the
property is taken by the taxing authority
or other entity, FHA must expend time
and resources to recover the property,
and may even lose its ability to recoup
its insurance losses to the Mutual
Mortgage Insurance Fund (MMIF).
II. This Interpretive Rule
A. Introduction
This interpretive rule clarifies HUD’s
longstanding position on the question of
what is meant by the term ‘‘court of
competent jurisdiction’’ in the ‘‘sue and
be sued’’ clause contained in section 1,
Title I of the National Housing Act
(NHA) (12 U.S.C. 1702). The purpose of
this clarification is to assist FHA to
efficiently manage its real estate owned
(REO) inventory and ensure prompt
payment for taxes and other fees and
assessments. The purpose is also to
protect FHA’s MMIF assets, which
include acquired single family
properties.2 By accompanying notices in
2 Section 202(a)(3) of the National Housing Act
(12 U.S.C. 1708(a)(3)) imposes a fiduciary duty on
the Secretary to protect the Mutual Mortgage
Insurance Fund. Section 4(b) of the Department of
HUD Act (42 U.S.C. 3533(b)) requires the Secretary
to hold FHA managers responsible for protecting
federal assets and performing risk management.

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or removes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs) for operations at certain
airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption
of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.
DATES: This rule is effective October 15, 2015. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of October 15, 2015.

Federal Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by establishing,
amending, suspending, or removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and/or ODPS.
The complete regulatory description of each SIAP and its associated
Takeoff Minimums or ODP for an identified airport is listed on FAA form
documents which are incorporated by reference in this amendment under 5
U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 CFR part Sec. 97.20. The
applicable FAA forms are FAA Forms 8260-3, 8260-4, 8260-5, 8260-15A,
and 8260-15B when required by an entry on 8260-15A.
The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, their complex
nature, and the need for a special format make publication in the
Federal Register expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use
the regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead
refer to their graphic depiction on charts printed by publishers of
aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages of incorporation by
reference are realized and publication of the complete description of
each SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFRs and specifies
the types of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their applicable
effective dates. This amendment also identifies the airport and its
location, the procedure, and the amendment number.
Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference
The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPS as identified in the amendatory language for part
97 of this final rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP as Amended in the
transmittal. Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and textual ODP amendments
may have been issued previously by the FAA in a Flight Data Center
(FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency action of immediate
flight safety relating directly to published aeronautical charts.
The circumstances that created the need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after publication is provided.
Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the affected airports. Because of
the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and contrary
to the public interest and, where applicable, under 5 U.S.C 553(d),
good cause exists for making some SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
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.
It, therefore--(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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial

Flexibility Act.
