(c) Applicability This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 737–300, –400, –500 airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017. (j) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs) (1) The Manager, Los Angeles Aircraft Certification Office, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your request to your principal inspector or local Flight Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending information directly to the manager of the ACO, send it to the attention of the person identified in paragraph (k)(1) of this AD. Information may be emailed to: 9-ANM-LAACO-AMOCRequests@faa.gov. (2) Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the local flight standards district office/ certificate holding district office. (3) An AMOC that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used for any repair, modification, or alteration required by this AD if it is approved by the Boeing Commercial Airplanes Organization Designation Authorization (ODA) that has been authorized by the Manager, Los Angeles ACO, to make those findings. To be approved, the repair method, modification deviation, or alteration deviation must meet the certification basis of the airplane, and the approval must specifically refer to this AD. (4) Except as required by paragraph (h) of this AD: For service information that contains steps that are labeled as Required for Compliance (RC), the provisions of paragraphs (j)(4)(i) and (j)(4)(ii) of this AD apply. (i) The steps labeled as RC, including substeps under an RC step and any figures identified in an RC step, must be done to comply with the AD. If a step or substep is labeled ‘‘RC Exempt,’’ then the RC requirement is removed from that step or substep. An AMOC is required for any deviations to RC steps, including substeps and identified figures. (ii) Steps not labeled as RC may be deviated from using accepted methods in accordance with the operator’s maintenance or inspection program without obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided the RC steps, including substeps and identified figures, can still be done as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition. (d) Subject Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 53; Fuselage. (e) Unsafe Condition This AD was prompted by an evaluation by the design approval holder indicating that the lower skin at the skin lap splice lower fastener row is subject to widespread fatigue damage. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracks in the lower skin, which, if not detected, could link up, resulting in reduced structural integrity of the airplane and consequent uncontrolled decompression of the airplane. (f) Compliance Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done. (g) Repetitive Inspections Except as provided by paragraph (i) of this AD, at the applicable time specified in paragraph 1.E., ‘‘Compliance,’’ of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017: Do external eddy current inspections at stringer S–14 on the left and right sides of the airplane (S–14L and S–14R) for any crack in the skin lap splice at the lower fastener row, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017. Repeat the inspections thereafter at the applicable times specified in paragraph 1.E., ‘‘Compliance,’’ of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017. mstockstill on DSK30JT082PROD with PROPOSALS (h) Repair If any crack is found during any inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD, repair before further flight using a method approved in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (j) of this AD. Although Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017, specifies to contact Boeing for appropriate action and specifies that action as ‘‘RC’’ (Required for Compliance), this AD requires repair as specified in this paragraph. (i) Exceptions to Service Information Specifications (1) Where Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017, specifies a compliance time ‘‘after the original issue date of this service bulletin,’’ this AD requires compliance within the specified compliance time after the effective date of this AD. (2) The Condition column of Table 1 and Table 2 of paragraph 1.E., ‘‘Compliance,’’ of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737–53A1365, dated January 23, 2017, refers to total flight cycles ‘‘at the original issue date of this service bulletin.’’ This AD, however, applies VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:54 Apr 28, 2017 Jkt 241001 Avenue SW., Renton, WA.

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by 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. The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 3.6-mile radius of Hawthorne Industrial Airport, Hawthorne, NV, and within 2 miles either side of a curved line extending southeast to approximately 15 miles east of the airport. This airspace is necessary to support IFR operations in standard instrument approach and departure procedures at the airport. Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 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 designations PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 listed in this document will be published subsequently in the Order. Regulatory Notices and Analyses 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, is non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. 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 rule, when promulgated, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gavin Huang, (215) 814–2042, or by email at huang.gavin@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background In May 2010, the State of Maryland through the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) discontinued the use of TM 90–01 ‘‘Continuous Emission Monitoring Policies and Procedures’’ and codified these requirements for CEMs in Maryland regulation COMAR 26.11.01.11 ‘‘Continuous Emission Monitoring Requirements.’’ MDE had been in the process of establishing unique requirements for CEMs, separate from the requirements for continuous opacity monitors (COMs), and broke out the requirements into separate COMAR regulations. On November 7, 2016 (81 FR 78048), EPA approved these separate regulations into Maryland’s SIP. II. Summary of SIP Revision and EPA Evaluation On July 1, 2016, MDE submitted a SIP revision to remove discontinued TM 90–01 from Maryland’s SIP because TM 90–01 had been superseded by COMAR 26.11.01.11. EPA previously approved TM 90–01 into Maryland’s SIP on February 28, 1996. See 61 FR 7418. MDE also submitted a revised version of COMAR 26.11.10.06 ‘‘Control of Volatile Organic Compounds from Iron and Steel Production Installations’’ for inclusion in the Maryland SIP which removed a reference to TM 90–01 in section C(3)(b) of COMAR 26.11.10.06 and added a reference to COMAR 26.11.01.11 in COMAR 26.11.10.06. On November 7, 2016 (81 FR 78048), EPA approved COMAR 26.11.01.11 into the Maryland SIP. This newly SIP approved regulation establishes general requirements, quality assurance provisions, and monitoring and PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 compliance requirements for the installation of CEMs for each of the applicable source categories. TM 90–01 previously had addressed quality assurance provisions for CEMs and had also established levels of enforcement actions for Maryland for visible emissions exceedances based on a source’s operating time during a calendar quarter, and allowed exceedances to occur without follow up enforcement for up to 10 percent of a source’s operating time in addition to an existing 6-minute exclusion. Maryland’s CEM quality assurance requirements are now in COMAR 26.11.01.11 which is in the Maryland SIP. The removal of TM 90–01, which contained enforcement exclusions related to the number of violations and data availability from CEMs and COMs, strengthens enforcement of Maryland’s visible emissions standards. COMAR 26.11.01.11 does not contain any exclusions for the operation of CEMs. Therefore, EPA is removing a moot memorandum from the SIP which has already been replaced by a regulatory requirement and thus this removal will not interfere with any CAA requirement, with any national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS), or with any reasonable further progress and the removal meets requirements in section 110(l) of the CAA. Due to the removal of TM 90–01, MDE has also removed a reference to TM 90–01 in COMAR 26.11.10.06 in section C(3)(b) and added a reference to COMAR 26.11.01.11 which EPA finds appropriate. This amendment to COMAR 26.11.10.06 will also be reflected in the SIP. III. Proposed Action EPA is proposing to approve the July 1, 2016 Maryland SIP revision submittal, which seeks removal of discontinued TM 90–01 from the Maryland SIP in accordance with section 110 of the CAA. The CEM requirements for quality assurance, monitoring and other technical requirements under discontinued TM 90–01 have been superseded and codified under COMAR 26.11.01.11. EPA is soliciting public comments on the issues discussed in this document. These comments will be considered before taking final action. IV. Incorporation by Reference In this proposed rulemaking, EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, EPA is proposing to incorporate by reference COMAR 26.11.01.11 in the amendment to COMAR E:\FR\FM\01MYP1.SGM 01MYP1

Availability and Summary of Documents Proposed for Incorporation by 
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.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal 
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by establishing Class E airspace extending 
upward from 700 feet above the surface within a 3.6-mile radius of 
Hawthorne Industrial Airport, Hawthorne, NV, and within 2 miles either 
side of a curved line extending southeast to approximately 15 miles 
east of the airport. This airspace is necessary to support IFR 
operations in standard instrument approach and departure procedures at 
the airport.
    Class E airspace designations are published in paragraph 6005 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 designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in the Order.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    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, is 
non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative 
comments. 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 rule, when promulgated, would 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 will 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.
