Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 3, 2016, and effective
September 15, 2016. FAA Order
7400.11A is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,
air traffic service routes, and reporting
points.
14:19 Apr 24, 2017
The FAA is considering an
amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by
removing the NOTAM part-time status
of the Class E airspace designated as an
extension to a Class D surface area at
Southwest Georgia Regional Airport,
Albany, GA. This action would bring
the airspace description for the airport
listed in FAA Order 7400.11A in line
with the airspace hours listed in the
applicable Chart Supplement
(previously called Airport/Facility
Directory).
Class E airspace designations are
published in Paragraphs 6004 of FAA
Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016,
and effective September 15, 2016, which
is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class E airspace designation
listed in this document will be
published subsequently in the Order.

The Proposal
Jkt 241001
The FAA has determined that this
proposed 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.
Since this is a routine matter that will
only affect air traffic procedures and air
navigation, it is certified that this
proposed rule, when promulgated, will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
This proposal would be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Section A. Background
On October 20, 1999, the Commission
issued its final Rule pursuant to the
Children’s Online Privacy Protection
Act, 15 U.S.C. 6501 et seq., which
became effective on April 21, 2000.1 On
December 19, 2012, the Commission
amended the Rule, and these
amendments became effective on July 1,
2013.2 The Rule requires certain Web
site and online service operators to post
privacy policies and provide notice, and
obtain verifiable parental consent, prior
to collecting, using, or disclosing
personal information from children
under the age of 13.3 The Rule contains
a ‘‘safe harbor’’ provision enabling
industry groups or others to submit to
the Commission for approval selfregulatory guidelines that would
implement the Rule’s protections.4

The Environmental Protection

determination is based on complete,
certified, and quality assured ambient
air quality monitoring data for the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
A. Statutory Requirement—
Determination of Attainment by the
Attainment Date
Section 181(b)(2) of the CAA requires
EPA to determine, within 6 months of
an ozone nonattainment area’s
attainment date, whether that area
attained the ozone standard by that date.
Section 181(b)(2) of the CAA also
requires that areas that have not attained
the standard by their attainment
deadlines be reclassified to either the
next higher classification (e.g., marginal
to moderate, moderate to serious, etc.)
or to the classifications applicable to the
areas’ design values in Table 1 of 40
CFR 51.1103. CAA section 181(a)(5)
provides a mechanism by which the
EPA Administrator may grant a 1-year
extension of an area’s attainment
deadline, provided that the relevant
states meet certain criteria.
B. The Washington Area and Its
Attainment Date
On July 18, 1997 at 62 FR 38855, EPA
promulgated a revised ozone NAAQS of
0.08 parts per million (ppm), averaged
over eight hours. This standard was
determined to be more protective of
public health than the previous 1979 1hour ozone standard. In 2008, EPA
revised the 8-hour ozone NAAQS from
0.08 to 0.075 ppm (the 2008 ozone
NAAQS). See 73 FR 16436 (March 27,
2008). In a May 21, 2012 final rule, the
Washington Area was designated as
marginal nonattainment for the more
stringent 2008 ozone NAAQS, effective
on July 20, 2012. 77 FR 30088. The
Washington Area consists of the
Counties of Calvert, Charles, Frederick,
Montgomery, and Prince George’s in
Maryland; the Counties of Arlington,
Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William
and the Cities of Alexandria, Fairfax,
Falls Church, Manassas, and Manassas
Park Cities in Virginia; and the entirety
of the District of Columbia. See 40 CFR
81.309, 81.321, and 81.347.
In a separate rulemaking action, also
published on May 21, 2012 and effective
on July 20, 2012, EPA established the air
quality thresholds that define the
classifications assigned to all
nonattainment areas for the 2008 ozone
NAAQS (the Classifications Rule). See
77 FR 30160. This rulemaking also
established December 31 of each

Because your comment will be placed on the publicly accessible FTC
Web site at www.ftc.gov, you are solely responsible for making sure
that your comment does not include any sensitive or confidential
information. In particular, your comment should not include any
sensitive personal information, such as your or anyone else's Social
Security number; date of birth; driver's license number or other state
identification number, or foreign country equivalent; passport number;
financial account number; or credit or debit card number. You are also

individually identifiable health information. In

addition, your comment should not include any ``trade secret or any
commercial or financial information which . . . is privileged or
confidential''--as provided by Section 6(f) of the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C.
46(f), and FTC Rule 4.10(a)(2), 16 CFR 4.10(a)(2)--including in
particular competitively sensitive information such as costs, sales
statistics, inventories, formulas, patterns, devices, manufacturing
processes, or customer names.
Once your comment has been posted on the public FTC Web site--as
legally required by FTC Rule 4.9(b)--we cannot redact or remove your
comment from the FTC Web site, unless you submit a confidentiality
request that meets the requirements for such treatment under FTC Rule
4.9(c), and the General Counsel grants that request in accordance with
the law and the public interest. Comments containing material for which
confidential treatment is requested must be filed in paper form, must
be clearly labeled ``Confidential,'' and must comply with FTC Rule
4.9(c). In particular, the written request for confidential treatment
that accompanies the comment must include the factual and legal basis
for the request, and must identify the specific portions of the comment
to be withheld from the public record. See FTC Rule 4.9(c).
