July 11, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The FAA is revising a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that applied to General Electric Company (GE) Model CT7-5A2, CT7-5A3, CT7-7A, CT7-7A1, CT7-9B, CT7-9B1, CT7-9B2, CT7-9C, and CT7-9C3 engines. The NPRM proposed to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-03-13. This action revises the NPRM by regrouping certain engine models within the figures in the Required Actions paragraph. The FAA is proposing this airworthiness directive to address the unsafe condition on these products. Since these actions expand the applicability for the required actions as proposed in the NPRM, the agency is requesting comments on this SNPRM.

The Debt Collection Act, as amended, requires federal agencies to either adopt existing regulations or promulgate their own regulations governing the collection of debts owed to the federal government.

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2021-26- 13, which applied to all Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) Model Trent 1000-A2, Trent 1000-AE2, Trent 1000-C2, Trent 1000-CE2, Trent 1000-D2, Trent 1000-E2, Trent 1000-G2, Trent 1000-H2, Trent 1000- J2, Trent 1000-K2, and Trent 1000-L2 engines. AD 2021-26-13 required revision of the engine Time Limits Manual (TLM) life limits of certain critical rotating parts and direct accumulation counting (DAC) data files. Since the FAA issued AD 2021-26-13, RRD has revised the TLM with more restrictive airworthiness limitations, including updated life limits for certain critical parts and updated DAC data files. This AD was prompted by the manufacturer revising the engine TLM life limits of certain critical rotating parts, updating the DAC data files, and updating certain maintenance tasks. This AD requires revising the existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is incorporated by reference (IBR). The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

NMFS, in consultation with the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council), announces its intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on management measures to minimize non-Chinook salmon bycatch, particularly bycatch of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) of western Alaska origin (Western Alaska chum), in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). The management measures analyzed in this EIS would apply exclusively to participants in the Bering Sea pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) fishery, managed under the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area (BSAI FMP), and consistent with the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act), National Standards, and other applicable law. The scope of the EIS will be to analyze the impacts to the human environment resulting from alternatives for measures to minimize non- Chinook salmon bycatch. NMFS will accept written comments from the public to identify the issues of concern and assist the Council and NMFS in determining the appropriate range of alternatives for the EIS.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing for public comment three draft NUREGs that provide revised guidance for subsequent license renewal (SLR) and the associated technical bases for the revised guidance documents.

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2020-03-19, which applies to certain Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE- FALCON 20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes. AD 2020-03-19 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2020-03-19, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2020-03-19 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate additional new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD, which is proposed for incorporation by reference (IBR). The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
