Series 705) airplanes; Model CL–600–
2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes;
and Model CL–600–2E25 (Regional Jet
Series 1000) airplanes. This AD was
prompted by reports of displayed
headings changing from MAG to TRU
with no pilot action, which may result
in misleading heading information on
both primary function displays (PFDs)
and multi-function displays (MFDs),
and misleading course information on
flight management systems (FMSs). This
AD requires amending the existing
airplane flight manual (AFM) to provide
the flightcrew with updated procedures
for accurate heading and course
information. The FAA is issuing this AD
to address the unsafe condition on these
products.
DATES: This AD is effective November 3,
2022.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of certain publications listed in this AD

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Transport Canada Civil Aviation
(TCCA), which is the aviation authority
for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF–
2021–19, issued May 13, 2021 (TCCA
AD CF–2021–19) (also referred to after
this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or the
MCAI), to correct an unsafe condition
for certain MHI RJ Aviation ULC Model
CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 &
440) airplanes; Model CL–600–2C10
(Regional Jet Series 700, 701 & 702)
airplanes; Model CL–600–2C11
(Regional Jet Series 550) airplanes;
Model CL–600–2D15 (Regional Jet
Series 705) airplanes; Model CL–600–
2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes;
and Model CL–600–2E25 (Regional Jet
Series 1000) airplanes. You may
examine the MCAI in the AD docket at
regulations.gov by searching for and
locating Docket No. FAA–2022–0155.
The FAA issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would
apply to certain MHI RJ Aviation ULC
Model CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet
Series 100 & 440) airplanes; Model CL–
600–2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701
& 702) airplanes; Model CL–600–2C11
(Regional Jet Series 550) airplanes;
Model CL–600–2D15 (Regional Jet
Series 705) airplanes; Model CL–600–
2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes;
and Model CL–600–2E25 (Regional Jet
Series 1000) airplanes. The NPRM

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 188 / Thursday, September 29, 2022 / Rules and Regulations
published in the Federal Register on
April 1, 2022 (87 FR 19026). The NPRM
was prompted by reports of displayed
headings changing from MAG to TRU
with no pilot action, which may result
in misleading heading information on
both PFDs and MFDs, and misleading
course information on FMSs. The NPRM
proposed to require amending the
existing AFM to provide the flightcrew
with updated procedures for accurate
heading and course information. The
FAA is issuing this AD to prevent
operation outside the terrain and
obstacle protection provided in
instrument procedure and route designs,
which could result in reduced
operational safety margins. See the
MCAI for additional background
information.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness
Directive
Comments
The FAA received a comment from
the Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the
NPRM without change.
Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data,
considered the comment received, and
determined that air safety requires
adopting this AD as proposed. Except
for minor editorial changes, this AD is
adopted as proposed in the NPRM.
None of the changes will increase the
economic burden on any operator.
Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD
to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as
follows:
Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code
specifies the FAA’s authority to issue
rules on aviation safety. 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.
The FAA is issuing this rulemaking
under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section
44701: General requirements. Under
that section, Congress charges the FAA
with promoting safe flight of civil
aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and
procedures the Administrator finds
necessary for safety in air commerce.
This regulation is within the scope of
that authority because it addresses an
unsafe condition that is likely to exist or
develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
13132. This AD will not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on
the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I
certify that this AD:
(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ under Executive Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation
in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant
economic impact, positive or negative,
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final
rule amends 15 CFR part 801 to set forth
the reporting requirements for the BE–
12, Benchmark Survey of Foreign Direct
Investment in the United States. Under
this final rule 15 CFR 801.10 is modified
to clarify the timing of this benchmark
survey. The next BE–12 survey will
apply to the 2022 fiscal reporting year,
and will be conducted once every five
years thereafter, for reporting years
ending in 2 and 7.
BEA conducts the BE–12 survey
under the authority of the International
Investment and Trade in Services
Survey Act (22 U.S.C. 3101–3108).
The BE–12 survey covers the universe
of foreign direct investment in the
United States in terms of value and is
BEA’s most detailed survey of such
investment. Foreign direct investment
in the United States is defined as the
ownership or control, directly or
indirectly, by one foreign person
(foreign parent) of 10 percent or more of
the voting securities of an incorporated
U.S. business enterprise or an
equivalent interest in an unincorporated
U.S. business enterprise, including a
branch.
The purpose of the BE–12 survey is to
obtain universe data on the financial
and operating characteristics of U.S.
affiliates and on positions and
transactions between U.S. affiliates and
their foreign parent groups (which are
defined to include all foreign parents
and foreign affiliates of foreign parents).
These data are needed to measure the
size and economic significance of
foreign direct investment in the United
States, measure changes in such
investment, and assess its impact on the
U.S. economy. Such data are generally
found in enterprise-level accounting
records of respondent companies. These
PO 00000
Frm 00007
Fmt 4700

data are used to derive current universe
estimates of direct investment from
sample data collected in other BEA
surveys in non-benchmark years. In
particular, they serve as benchmarks for
the quarterly direct investment
estimates included in the U.S.
international transactions, international
investment position, and national
income and product accounts, and for
annual estimates of the foreign direct
investment position in the United States
and of the activities of the U.S. affiliates
of foreign companies.
Description of Changes
The final rule amends the regulations
(15 CFR part 801) and the survey forms
for the BE–12 survey. These
amendments include changes in data
items collected, the design of the survey
forms, and the reporting requirements
for the survey.
BEA adds, deletes, and modifies some
items on the BE–12 survey forms. The
following items will be added to the
BE–12 survey:
(1) A question to collect the city of
each foreign parent and ultimate
beneficial owner (UBO) on all forms.
(2) The balance sheet and income
statement sections on the BE–12A form
will be modified to separately collect
the investment in, and income from, (a)
‘‘unconsolidated U.S. affiliates’’ and (b)
‘‘foreign entities,’’ which were
previously collected as a combined
total.
(3) Supplemental sections A and B,
which collect identification information
on business enterprises owned by the
U.S. affiliate, will be modified on all
BE–12 forms to request more
information on the reasons the U.S.
business enterprises changed since the
last report. This will include options for
‘‘newly acquired’’ or ‘‘newly
established’’ if an enterprise is being
reported on a supplement for the first
time, and options to report U.S.
business enterprises that had a name
change, were sold, merged or liquidated.
A follow-up question will be added
requesting the date of the corporate
change for new enterprises.
(4) Questions will be added on the
BE–12A form to collect sales data for
certain service types where there is no
clear link between the industry of sales
and the type of services supplied. These
service types are (1) intellectual
property (IP) rights and (2) advertising.
(5) Questions will be added to collect
sales data on the BE–12A form related
to the provision of selected services
generally recognized as prevalent in the
digital economy. These selected services
are (1) cloud computing and data
storage and (2) digital intermediation

Airworthiness Directives; MHI RJ Aviation ULC (Type Certificate
Previously Held by Bombardier, Inc.) Airplanes
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain MHI RJ Aviation ULC Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100
& 440) airplanes; Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701 &
702) airplanes; Model CL-600-2C11 (Regional Jet Series 550) airplanes;
Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes; Model CL-600-
2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes; and Model CL-600-2E25
(Regional Jet Series 1000) airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports
of displayed headings changing from MAG to TRU with no pilot action,
which may result in misleading heading information on both primary
function displays (PFDs) and multi-function displays (MFDs), and
misleading course information on flight management systems (FMSs). This
AD requires amending the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to
provide the flightcrew with updated procedures for accurate heading and
course information. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.
DATES: This AD is effective November 3, 2022.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of November 3,
2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued TCCA AD CF-2021-19, issued May 13,
2021 (TCCA AD CF-2021-19) (also referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or the MCAI), to correct an
unsafe condition for certain MHI RJ Aviation ULC Model CL-600-2B19
(Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes; Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional
Jet Series 700, 701 & 702) airplanes; Model CL-600-2C11 (Regional Jet
Series 550) airplanes; Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705)
airplanes; Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes; and
Model CL-600-2E25 (Regional Jet Series 1000) airplanes. You may examine
the MCAI in the AD docket at regulations.gov by searching for and
locating Docket No. FAA-2022-0155.
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain MHI RJ Aviation
ULC Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes; Model
CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701 & 702) airplanes; Model CL-
600-2C11 (Regional Jet Series 550) airplanes; Model CL-600-2D15
(Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes; Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet
Series 900) airplanes; and Model CL-600-2E25 (Regional Jet Series 1000)
airplanes. The NPRM
[[Page 58951]]
published in the Federal Register on April 1, 2022 (87 FR 19026). The
NPRM was prompted by reports of displayed headings changing from MAG to
TRU with no pilot action, which may result in misleading heading
information on both PFDs and MFDs, and misleading course information on
FMSs. The NPRM proposed to require amending the existing AFM to provide
the flightcrew with updated procedures for accurate heading and course
information. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent operation outside
the terrain and obstacle protection provided in instrument procedure
and route designs, which could result in reduced operational safety
margins. See the MCAI for additional background information.
Discussion of Final Airworthiness Directive
Comments
The FAA received a comment from the Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the NPRM without change.
Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment
received, and determined that air safety requires adopting this AD as
proposed. Except for minor editorial changes, this AD is adopted as
proposed in the NPRM. None of the changes will increase the economic
burden on any operator. Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these products.

Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. 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.
The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.
Regulatory Findings
This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
