Download as PDF khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS 71186 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 238 / Wednesday, December 15, 2021 / Proposed Rules which are within contact range of the occupant. i. Pass/fail injury assessments: A. Perform HIC, fore and aft neck injury, spinal tension, and femur evaluations using an FAA Hybrid III ATD. B. Perform lateral neck injury, thoracic, abdominal, pelvis, and femur evaluations using an ES–2re ATD. 5. For injury assessments accomplished by testing with an ES–2re ATD for longitudinal tests conducted in accordance with § 25.562(b)(2) and these special conditions, the ATDs must be positioned, clothed, and have lateral instrumentation configured as follows: i. ES–2re ATD Lateral Instrumentation: The rib-module linear slides are directional (i.e., deflection occurs in either a positive or negative ATD y-axis direction). Install the modules such that the moving end of the rib module is toward the front of the airplane. Install the three abdominal-force sensors such that they are on the side of the ATD toward the front of the airplane. ii. ATD Clothing: Clothe each ATD in form-fitting cotton-stretch garments with short- to full-length sleeves, mid-calf to fulllength pants, and size 11E (45) shoes weighing about 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg), and having a heel height of about 1.5 inches (3.8 cm). The color of the clothing should be in contrast to the color of the restraint system and the background. The color of the clothing should be chosen to avoid overexposing the highspeed images captured during the test. The ES–2re jacket is sufficient for torso clothing, although a form-fitting shirt may be used in addition, if desired. iii. ATD Positioning: A. Lower the ATD vertically into the seat while simultaneously: (1) Aligning the midsagittal plane (a vertical plane through the midline of the body, dividing the body into right and left halves) to approximately the middle of the seat place. (2) Keeping the upper legs horizontal by supporting them just behind the knees. (3) Applying a horizontal x-axis direction (in the ES–2re ATD coordinate system) force of about 20 lbs (89 N) to the bottom rib of the ES–2re, to compress the seat back cushion. B. After all lifting devices have been removed from the ATD: (1) Rock it slightly to settle it in the seat. (2) Bend the knees of the ATD. (3) Separate the knees by about 4 inches (100 mm). (4) Set the ATD’s head at approximately the midpoint of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:38 Dec 14, 2021 Jkt 256001 available range of z-axis rotation (to align the head and torso midsagittal planes). (5) Position the ATD’s arms at the joints’ mechanical detent, to position them to an approximately 20- to 40degree angle with respect to the torso. (6) Position the feet such that the centerlines of the lower legs are approximately parallel. Note: Seats installed via plinths or pallets must meet all applicable requirements. Compliance with the guidance contained in policy memorandum PS–ANM–100–2000– 00123, ‘‘Guidance for Demonstrating Compliance with Seat Dynamic Testing for Plinths and Pallets,’’ dated February 2, 2000, is acceptable to the FAA. Issued in Kansas City, Missouri, on December 9, 2021. Patrick R. Mullen, Manager, Technical Innovation Policy Branch, Policy and Innovation Division, Aircraft Certification Service.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 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.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend 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.

The Proposal

    The FAA proposes an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to amend Class E 
airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Griffin-
Spalding County Airport, Griffin, GA by removing the city associated 
with the Griffin-Spalding County Airport legal description to comply 
with FAA Order JO 7400.2, increasing the radius of the airport to 8.7 
miles (formerly 6.3 miles), and increasing the extension's off the 
airports 137[deg] bearing and 317[deg] bearing to 10.5 miles (formerly 
10.3 miles).
    Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraphs 6005 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 
E airspace designations listed in this document will be published 
subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.
    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 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 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.
