SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Authority for This Rulemaking
The FAA’s authority to issue rules
regarding aviation safety is found in
Title 49 of the United States Code.
Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator.
Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the
agency’s authority. This rulemaking is
promulgated under the authority
described in Subtitle VII, Part A,
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
51607
Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that
section, the FAA is charged with
prescribing regulations to assign the use
of airspace necessary to ensure the
safety of aircraft and the efficient use of
airspace. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority as it amends the
Class D airspace, the Class E airspace
area designated as an extension to Class
D airspace, and the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface at Scott AFB/MidAmerica
St. Louis Airport, Belleville, IL, to
support instrument flight rule
operations at this airport.
History
The FAA published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the
Federal Register (86 FR 33586; June 25,
2021) for Docket No. FAA–2021–0477 to
amend the Class D and Class E airspace
at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis
Airport, Belleville, IL. Interested parties
were invited to participate in this
rulemaking effort by submitting written
comments on the proposal to the FAA.
No comments were received.
Class D and E airspace designations
are published in paragraph 5000, 6004,
and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO
7400.11F, dated August 10, 2021, and
effective September 15, 2021, which is
incorporated by reference in 14 CFR
71.1. The Class D and E airspace
designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the
order.
Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document amends FAA Order JO
7400.11F, Airspace Designations and
Reporting Points, dated August 10,
2021, and effective September 15, 2021.
FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly
available as listed in the ADDRESSES
section of this document. FAA Order JO
7400.11F lists Class A, B, C, D, and E
airspace areas, air traffic service routes,
and reporting points.
Differences From the NPRM
Subsequent to the publication of the
NPRM, the FAA discovered a
typographic error in the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to at Scott AFB/MidAmerica
St. Louis Airport airspace legal
description. In the northeast extension,
the extension should extend from the
7.4-mile radius vice 4.9-mile.
Additionally, it was discovered that the
extension proposed to be added
southeast of the airport is captured by
another extension and is therefore not
required. As these changes do not affect
E:\FR\FM\16SER1.SGM
16SER1
51608
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 177 / Thursday, September 16, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
the Class E airspace as proposed, they
are incorporated into this rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 71:
Amends the Class D airspace at Scott
AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis Airport,
Belleville, IL, by removing the city
associated with the airport to comply
with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N,
Procedures for Handling Airspace
Matters; updating the name (previously
Scott AFB/MidAmerica Airport) of the
airport to coincide with the FAA’s
aeronautical database; and replacing the
outdated term ‘‘Airport/Facility
Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart Supplement’’;
Amends the Class E airspace area
designated as an extension to Class D
airspace at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St.
Louis Airport by adding an extension
1.3 miles each side of the 048° bearing
from the Scott TACAN extending from
the 4.9-mile radius of the airport to 5.7
miles northeast of the Scott TACAN;
amends the northwest extension to 1
mile (decreased from 1.5 miles) each
side of the 314° (previously 312°) radial
from the Scott TACAN extending from
the 4.9-mile radius from the airport to
9.5 miles (decreased from 10 miles)
northwest of the Scott TACAN; removes
the city associated with the airport to
comply with changes to FAA Order
7400.2N; updates the name of the
airport (previously Scott AFB/
MidAmerica Airport) to coincide with
the FAA’s aeronautical database; and
replaces the outdated term ‘‘Airport/
Facility Directory’’ with ‘‘Chart
Supplement’’;
And amends the Class E airspace
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface to at Scott AFB/MidAmerica
St. Louis Airport by adding an extension
8 miles northwest and 10 miles
southeast of the 048° bearing from the
Scott TACAN extending from the 7.4mile radius of the airport to 22 miles
northeast of the Scott TACAN; amends
the southeast extension to 1.5 miles
(decreased from 1.7 miles) each side of
the 142° (previously 140°) radial from
the Scott TACAN extending from the
7.4-mile radius of the airport to 12.7
miles (decreased from 14 miles)
southeast of the Scott TACAN; amends
the northwest extension to 4 miles
(increased from 1.5 miles) each side of
the 314° (previously 312°) radial from
the Scott TACAN extending from the
7.4-mile radius of the airport to 10.5
miles (increased from 10 miles)
northwest of the Scott TACAN; removes
the city associated with the airport to
comply with changes to FAA Order
7400.2N; updates the name of the
airport (previously Scott AFB/
MidAmerica Airport) to coincide with

Jkt 253001
the FAA’s aeronautical database; and
removes the exclusionary language as it
is not required.
This action is due to the results of a
biennial airspace review.
FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, is
published yearly and effective on
September 15.
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 only affects air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when
promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this
action qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act in accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental
Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’
paragraph 5–6.5.a. This airspace action
is not expected to cause any potentially
significant environmental impacts, and
no extraordinary circumstances exist
that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Federal Trade
Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’)
is issuing a final rule (‘‘Final Rule’’) to
amend its Affiliate Marketing Rule to
correspond to changes made to the Fair
Credit Reporting Act (‘‘FCRA’’) by the
Dodd-Frank Act.
DATES: This rule is effective October 18,
2021.

Protection, Bureau of Consumer
Protection, Federal Trade Commission,

Washington, DC 20580.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
A. The Affiliate Marketing Rule
The Fair and Accurate Credit
Transactions Act of 2003 (‘‘FACT Act’’)
was signed into law on December 4,
2003. Public Law 108–159, 117 Stat.
1952. Section 214 of the FACT Act
added a new section 624 to the FCRA.
This provision gives consumers the
right to restrict a person from using
certain information obtained from an
affiliate to make solicitations to that
consumer. Section 624 generally
provides that if a person receives certain
consumer eligibility information from
an affiliate, the person may not use that
information to make solicitations to the
consumer about its products or services,
unless the consumer is given notice and
an opportunity (via a simple method) to
opt out of such use of the information,
and the consumer does not opt out. The
statute also provides that Section 624
does not apply, for example, to a person
using eligibility information: (1) To
make solicitations to a consumer with
whom the person has a pre-existing
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:05 Sep 15, 2021
Jkt 253001
business relationship; (2) to perform
services for another affiliate subject to
certain conditions; (3) in response to a
communication initiated by the
consumer; or (4) to make a solicitation
that has been authorized or requested by
the consumer. Unlike the FCRA affiliate
sharing opt-out (15 U.S.C.
1681a(d)(2)(A)(iii)) and the opt-out of
sharing with non-affiliated third parties
under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
(‘‘GLBA’’), 15 U.S.C. 6801 et seq., which
apply indefinitely, Section 624 provides
that a consumer’s affiliate marketing
opt-out election must be effective for a
period of at least five years. Upon
expiration of the opt-out period, the
consumer must be given a renewal
notice and an opportunity to renew the
opt-out before information received
from an affiliate may be used to make
solicitations to the consumer.
The Commission published
regulations implementing Section 624,
the Affiliate Marketing Rule, 16 CFR
part 680, on October 30, 2007.1
B. Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act (‘‘DoddFrank Act’’) was signed into law in
2010.2 The Dodd-Frank Act
substantially changed the federal legal
framework for financial services
providers. Among the changes, the
Dodd-Frank Act transferred to the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(‘‘CFPB’’) the Commission’s rulemaking
authority under portions of the FCRA.3
Accordingly, in 2012, the Commission
rescinded several of its FCRA rules,
which had been replaced by rules
issued by the CFPB.4 The FTC retained
rulemaking authority for other rules
promulgated under the FCRA to the
extent the rules apply to motor vehicle
dealers described in section 1029(a) of
the Dodd-Frank Act 5 predominantly
engaged in the sale and servicing of
motor vehicles, the leasing and
servicing of motor vehicles, or both
(‘‘motor vehicle dealers’’).6 The rules for
which the FTC retains rulemaking
authority include the Affiliate
Marketing Rule, which now applies
only to motor vehicle dealers.7 Entities
1 72 FR 61423 (October 30, 2007). Model forms for
opt-out notices are published at 16 CFR part 698,
appendix B.
2 Public Law 111–203 (2010).
3 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. The Dodd-Frank Act does
not transfer to the CFPB rulemaking authority for
section 615(e) of the FCRA (‘‘Red Flag Guidelines
and Regulations Required’’) and section 628 of the
FCRA (‘‘Disposal of Records’’). See 15 U.S.C.
1681s(e).

that are not motor vehicle dealers are
covered by the CFPB’s Regulation V,
subpart C, which is substantially similar
to the Commission’s rule.8
II. Regulatory Review of the Affiliate
Marketing Rule
On September 22, 2020, the
Commission solicited comments on the
Affiliate Marketing Rule as part of its
periodic review of its rules and guides.9
The Commission sought information
about the costs and benefits of the rule,
and its regulatory and economic impact.
In addition, the Commission proposed
amending the rule to narrow its scope
to motor vehicle dealers excluded from
CFPB jurisdiction as described in the
Dodd-Frank Act.10 The Commission
received no comments.
III. Overview of Final Rule
The Commission promulgated the
Affiliate Marketing Rule at a time when
it had rulemaking authority for a
broader group of entities. While the
Dodd-Frank Act did not change the
Commission’s enforcement authority for
the Affiliate Marketing Rule, it did
narrow the Commission’s rulemaking
authority with respect to the rule. It now
covers only motor vehicle dealers. The
amendments in the Dodd-Frank Act
necessitate a technical revision to the
Affiliate Marketing Rule to ensure the
regulation is consistent with the text of
the amended FCRA. Accordingly, the
Commission amends the Affiliate
Marketing Rule to properly reflect the
rule’s scope.
The amendment to § 680.1(b) narrows
the scope description of the Affiliate
Marketing Rule to the entities excluded
from CFPB jurisdiction as described in
the Dodd-Frank Act.11 It does so by
replacing the broad term ‘‘person’’ with
the term ‘‘motor vehicle dealer,’’ as
defined in amended § 680.3.
The amendment to § 680.3 adds a
definition of ‘‘motor vehicle dealer’’ that
defines motor vehicle dealers as those
entities excluded from CFPB
jurisdiction as described in the DoddFrank Act.12
The amendments do not change the
substantive provisions of the rule or the
examples in the rule, even where those
provisions and examples involve
entities covered by the CFPB’s rule
rather than the Commission’s rule. The
8 12 CFR 1022.20 through 1022.27. There are no
substantive differences between the two rules, but
the two rules are organized differently and, in some
cases, use different examples. See, e.g., 12 CFR
1022.20(b)(4)(iii).

15, 2021. FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11F lists Class
A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
Differences From the NPRM
Subsequent to the publication of the NPRM, the FAA discovered a
typographic error in the Class E airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface to at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis Airport
airspace legal description. In the northeast extension, the extension
should extend from the 7.4-mile radius vice 4.9-mile. Additionally, it
was discovered that the extension proposed to be added southeast of the
airport is captured by another extension and is therefore not required.
As these changes do not affect
[[Page 51608]]
the Class E airspace as proposed, they are incorporated into this rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 71:
Amends the Class D airspace at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis
Airport, Belleville, IL, by removing the city associated with the
airport to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N, Procedures for
Handling Airspace Matters; updating the name (previously Scott AFB/
MidAmerica Airport) of the airport to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database; and replacing the outdated term ``Airport/
Facility Directory'' with ``Chart Supplement'';
Amends the Class E airspace area designated as an extension to
Class D airspace at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis Airport by adding an
extension 1.3 miles each side of the 048[deg] bearing from the Scott
TACAN extending from the 4.9-mile radius of the airport to 5.7 miles
northeast of the Scott TACAN; amends the northwest extension to 1 mile
(decreased from 1.5 miles) each side of the 314[deg] (previously
312[deg]) radial from the Scott TACAN extending from the 4.9-mile
radius from the airport to 9.5 miles (decreased from 10 miles)
northwest of the Scott TACAN; removes the city associated with the
airport to comply with changes to FAA Order 7400.2N; updates the name
of the airport (previously Scott AFB/MidAmerica Airport) to coincide
with the FAA's aeronautical database; and replaces the outdated term
``Airport/Facility Directory'' with ``Chart Supplement'';
And amends the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet
above the surface to at Scott AFB/MidAmerica St. Louis Airport by
adding an extension 8 miles northwest and 10 miles southeast of the
048[deg] bearing from the Scott TACAN extending from the 7.4-mile
radius of the airport to 22 miles northeast of the Scott TACAN; amends
the southeast extension to 1.5 miles (decreased from 1.7 miles) each
side of the 142[deg] (previously 140[deg]) radial from the Scott TACAN
extending from the 7.4-mile radius of the airport to 12.7 miles
(decreased from 14 miles) southeast of the Scott TACAN; amends the
northwest extension to 4 miles (increased from 1.5 miles) each side of
the 314[deg] (previously 312[deg]) radial from the Scott TACAN
extending from the 7.4-mile radius of the airport to 10.5 miles
(increased from 10 miles) northwest of the Scott TACAN; removes the
city associated with the airport to comply with changes to FAA Order
7400.2N; updates the name of the airport (previously Scott AFB/
MidAmerica Airport) to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database;
and removes the exclusionary language as it is not required.
This action is due to the results of a biennial airspace review.
FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.
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 only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical
exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures,'' paragraph 5-6.5.a. This airspace action is not expected
to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no
extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.
