May 23, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-21-11, which applies to all Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Model PW4074D, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines with a low- pressure compressor (LPC) fan hub, part number (P/N) 51B821 or P/N 52B521, installed. AD 2018-21-11 requires performing repetitive eddy current inspections (ECIs) and fluorescent penetrant inspections (FPIs) for cracks in certain LPC fan hubs and removing LPC fan hubs from service that fail any inspection. Since the FAA issued AD 2018-21-11, the FAA determined that affected LPC fan hub assemblies can meet the published certificated life limit without the need for the required repetitive FPI inspections in AD 2018-21-11, and the repetitive ECI inspections require shortened intervals. Based on a report of another incident, the FAA determined that the unsafe condition is likely to exist or develop on additional LPC fan hub assemblies and PW model engines. This proposed AD would expand the applicability to include Model PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines with any part number LPC fan hub assembly installed and would require performing repetitive ECIs of the LPC fan hub assembly and, depending on the results of the inspections, removal of the LPC fan hub assembly from service. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

This notice establishes a revised user fee for federal agencies requesting name-based, non-criminal justice background checks of the FBI's Central Records System through the Enterprise Vetting Center (EVC), formally known as the National Name Check Program (NNCP). The total resource costs associated with providing name check services have been calculated to ensure full reimbursement to the FBI (``cost reimbursement portion'' of the fee). The FBI is also authorized to charge an additional amount to defray costs required to update and improve the EVC's technological infrastructure, which supports the automation of processes involving name-based background checks (``automation portion'' of the fee). This notice explains the methodology used to calculate revised fees and also provides the updated fee schedule. In addition, and in conjunction with the revised fee for the name-based checks, this notice also establishes an interim monthly fee for Continuous Vetting (CV) checks.

The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for certain waters of the Yaquina Bay.
