(1) Any person engaged in the business of supplying a covered commodity to a retailer, whether directly or indirectly, must make available information to the buyer about the country(ies) of origin of the covered commodity. This information may be provided either on the product itself, on the master shipping container, or in a document that accompanies the product through retail sale. In addition, the supplier of a covered commodity that is responsible for initiating a country(ies) of origin claim, which in the case of lamb, chicken, and goat, is the slaughter facility, must possess records that are necessary to substantiate that claim for a period of 1 year from the date of the transaction. For that purpose, packers that slaughter animals that are tagged with an 840 Animal Identification Number device without the presence of any additional accompanying marking (i.e., ‘‘CAN’’ or ‘‘M’’) may use that information as a basis for a U.S. origin claim. Packers that slaughter animals that are part of another country’s recognized official system (e.g. Canadian official system, Mexico official system) may also rely on the presence of an official ear tag or other approved device on which to base their origin claims. Producer affidavits shall also be considered acceptable records that suppliers may utilize to initiate origin claims, provided it is made by someone having first-hand knowledge of the origin of the covered commodity and identifies the covered commodity unique to the transaction. * * * * * Dated: February 26, 2016.

Temporary final rule. AGENCY: ACTION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:00 Mar 01, 2016 Jkt 238001 SUMMARY: II. Background Information and Regulatory History The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those procedures are ‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) with respect to this rule because a vessel sank adjacent to the Federal navigation channel at the Sims Hugo Neu facility on Newtown Creek and immediate action is needed to respond to the potential safety hazards associated with PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 removing cargo from the vessel and refloating the vessel. It is impracticable to publish an NPRM because we must establish this safety zone by February 3, 2016. We are issuing this rule, and under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for making it effective less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of this rule would be contrary to public interest because immediate action is needed to respond to the potential safety hazards associated with removing cargo from the vessel and refloating the vessel. III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231. The COTP has determined that potential hazards associated with refloating a sunken barge adjacent to the Federal navigation channel starting February 4, 2016 will be a safety concern for anyone between the Greenpoint Avenue Bridge (mile 1.3) and the confluence of Newtown Creek and Dutch Kills during this process. This rule is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in the navigable waters within the safety zone while cargo is removed from the vessel and the vessel is refloated. Therefore, this rule will remain in effect for the time stated herein but will be cancelled if response activities are finished cease before March 5, 2016. The preliminary estimate for completion of the cargo removal and refloating the vessel is February 6, 2016. This TFR provides for an extended enforcement period in case of unforeseen circumstances that prevent the contractors from completing the work within their initial estimated timeline. IV. Discussion of the Rule This rule establishes a safety zone from 7 a.m. on Wednesday, February 3, 2016 through 11:59 p.m. on Saturday, March 5, 2016. The safety zone will cover all navigable waters between the Greenpoint Avenue Bridge (mile 1.3) and the confluence of Newtown Creek and Dutch Kills. The duration of the zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in these navigable waters while the vessel is being refloated. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative. V. Regulatory Analyses We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and Executive order related to rulemaking. E:\FR\FM\02MRR1.SGM 02MRR1

Class B cargo compartments; establishing fire safety standards for a 
new type of cargo compartment, Class F; and updating related standards 
for fire extinguishers. This amendment eliminated certain regulatory 
differences between the airworthiness standards of the FAA and the 
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), without affecting current 
industry design practices. However, in that document, the amendment 
number for the final rule was incorrect, and this document now posts 
the correct amendment number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 16, 2016 (81 FR 7698), the FAA published a final rule 
entitled, ``Harmonization of Airworthiness Standards--Fire 
Extinguishers and Class B and F Cargo Compartments'' (81 FR 7698).
    This rule amended certain airworthiness regulations for transport 
category airplanes by upgrading fire safety standards for Class B cargo 
compartments; establishing fire safety standards for a new type of 
cargo compartment, Class F; and updating

[[Page 10762]]

related standards for fire extinguishers. The rule was based on 
recommendations from the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) 
and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), and the changes 
addressed designs for which airworthiness directives (ADs) have been 
issued by both the FAA and the French civil aviation authority, 
Direction G[eacute]n[eacute]rale de l'Aviation Civile (DGAC). It 
eliminated certain regulatory differences between the airworthiness 
standards of the FAA and EASA, without affecting current industry 
design practices. These changes ensured an acceptable level of safety 
for these types of cargo compartments by standardizing certain 
requirements and procedures.
    However, the rule was published with an incorrect amendment number, 
``25-141,'' which is the same amendment number as the rule entitled 
``Harmonization of Airworthiness Standards--Gust and Maneuver Load 
Requirements'' (79 FR 73462), published on December 11, 2014. The 
correct amendment number for this rule should be ``25-142.''
