Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 5 / Wednesday, January 8, 2025 / Rules and Regulations
(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the
TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the
affected airports. Because of the close
and immediate relationship between
these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find
that notice and public procedure under
5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and
contrary to the public interest and,
where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d),
good cause exists for making some
SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
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. 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. For the same
reason, the FAA certifies that this
amendment will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Standard Instrument Approach
Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure Procedures;
Miscellaneous Amendments
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This rule amends, suspends,
or removes Standard Instrument
Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and
associated Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures for
operations at certain airports. These
regulatory actions are needed because of
the adoption of new or revised criteria,
or because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the
commissioning of new navigational
facilities, adding new obstacles, or
changing air traffic requirements. These
changes are designed to provide for the
safe and efficient use of the navigable
airspace and to promote safe flight
operations under instrument flight rules
at the affected airports.
DATES: This rule is effective January 8,
2025. The compliance date for each
SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums,
and ODP is specified in the amendatory
provisions.
The incorporation by reference of
certain publications listed in the
regulations is approved by the Director
of the Federal Register as of January 8,
2025.

amendment is as follows:

This rule
amends 14 CFR part 97 by amending the
referenced SIAPs. The complete
regulatory description of each SIAP is
listed on the appropriate FAA Form
8260, as modified by the National Flight
Data Center (NFDC)/Permanent Notice
to Air Missions (P–NOTAM), and is
incorporated by reference under 5
U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14
CFR 97.20. The large number of SIAPs,
their complex nature, and the need for
a special format make their verbatim
publication in the Federal Register
expensive and impractical. Further,
pilots do not use the regulatory text of
the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic
depiction on charts printed by
publishers of aeronautical materials.
Thus, the advantages of incorporation
by reference are realized and
publication of the complete description
of each SIAP contained on FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This
amendment provides the affected CFR
sections, and specifies the SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their
applicable effective dates. This
amendment also identifies the airport
and its location, the procedure and the
amendment number.

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is
effective upon publication of each
separate SIAP and Takeoff Minimums
and ODP as amended in the transmittal.
For safety and timeliness of change
considerations, this amendment
incorporates only specific changes
contained for each SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP as modified by
FDC permanent NOTAMs.
The SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums
and ODPs, as modified by FDC
permanent NOTAM, and contained in
this amendment are based on criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these changes to
SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied
only to specific conditions existing at
the affected airports. All SIAP
amendments in this rule have been
previously issued by the FAA in a FDC
NOTAM as an emergency action of
immediate flight safety relating directly
to published aeronautical charts.
The circumstances that created the
need for these SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments
require making them effective in less
than 30 days.
Because of the close and immediate
relationship between these SIAPs,
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, and
safety in air commerce, I find that notice
and public procedure under 5 U.S.C.
553(b) are impracticable and contrary to
the public interest and, where
applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good
cause exists for making these SIAPs

Purpose of the Regulatory Action
This rule is needed to carry out the
requirements of the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act
Improvements Act of 2015 and Office of
Management and Budget guidance M–
25–02. The rule adjusts, as required for
2025, the maximum civil penalties
under 29 CFR 4071 and 29 CFR 4302
that the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (PBGC) may assess for
failure to provide certain notices or
other material information and certain
multiemployer plan notices. PBGC’s
legal authority for this action comes
from the Federal Civil Penalties
Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 as
amended by the Federal Civil Penalties
Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements
Act of 2015 and from sections
4002(b)(3), 4071, and 4302 of the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:49 Jan 07, 2025
Jkt 265001
Background
PBGC administers title IV of ERISA.
Title IV has two provisions that
authorize PBGC to assess civil monetary
penalties.1 Section 4302, added to
ERISA by the Multiemployer Pension
Plan Amendments Act of 1980,
authorizes PBGC to assess a civil
penalty of up to $100 a day for failure
to provide a notice under subtitle E of
title IV of ERISA (dealing with
multiemployer plans). Section 4071,
added to ERISA by the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1987, authorizes
PBGC to assess a civil penalty of up to
$1,000 a day for failure to provide a
notice or other material information
under subtitles A, B, and C of title IV
and sections 303(k)(4) and 306(g)(4) of
title I of ERISA.
Adjustment of Civil Penalties
The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act Improvements Act of
2015,2 requires agencies to adjust civil
monetary penalties for inflation and to
publish the adjustments in the Federal
Register. An initial adjustment was
required to be made by interim final
rule published by July 1, 2016, and
effective by August 1, 2016. Subsequent
adjustments must be published by
January 15 each year after 2016.
On December 17, 2024, the Office of
Management and Budget issued
memorandum M–25–02 on
implementation of the 2025 annual
inflation adjustment.3 The
memorandum provides agencies with
the cost-of-living adjustment multiplier
for 2025, which is based on the
1 Under the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation
Adjustment Act of 1990, a penalty is a civil
monetary penalty if (among other things) it is for
a specific monetary amount or has a maximum
amount specified by Federal law. Title IV also
provides (in section 4007) for penalties for late
payment of premiums, but those penalties are
neither in a specified amount nor subject to a
specified maximum amount.

amounts are $2,739 for section 4071
penalties and $365 for section 4302

Compliance With Regulatory
Requirements
The Office of Management and Budget
has determined that this rule is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
Executive Order 12866 and therefore not
subject to its review.
The Office of Management and Budget
also has determined that notice and
public comment on this final rule are
unnecessary because the adjustment of
civil penalties implemented in the rule
is required by law. See 5 U.S.C. 553(b).
Because no general notice of proposed
rulemaking is required for this rule, the
Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 does
not apply. See 5 U.S.C. 601(2).

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule amends, suspends, or removes Standard Instrument
Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports. These
regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or revised
criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National Airspace
System, such as the commissioning of new navigational facilities,
adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements. These
changes are designed to provide for the safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.
DATES: This rule is effective January 8, 2025. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of January 8, 2025.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends 14 CFR part 97 by amending
the referenced SIAPs. The complete regulatory description of each SIAP
is listed on the appropriate FAA Form 8260, as modified by the National
Flight Data Center (NFDC)/Permanent Notice to Air Missions (P-NOTAM),
and is incorporated by reference under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51,
and 14 CFR 97.20. The large number of SIAPs, their complex nature, and
the need for a special format make their verbatim publication in the
Federal Register expensive and impractical. Further, pilots do not use
the regulatory text of the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic depiction
on charts printed by publishers of aeronautical materials. Thus, the
advantages of incorporation by reference are realized and publication
of the complete description of each SIAP contained on FAA form
documents is unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR
sections, and specifies the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with
their applicable effective dates. This amendment also identifies the
airport and its location, the procedure and the amendment number.
Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference
The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs as identified in the amendatory language for part 97
of this final rule.
The Rule
This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as amended in the
transmittal. For safety and timeliness of change considerations, this
amendment incorporates only specific changes contained for each SIAP
and Takeoff Minimums and ODP as modified by FDC permanent NOTAMs.
The SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, as modified by FDC
permanent NOTAM, and contained in this amendment are based on criteria
contained in the U.S. Standard for Terminal Instrument Procedures
(TERPS). In developing these changes to SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and
ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied only to specific conditions
existing at the affected airports. All SIAP amendments in this rule
have been previously issued by the FAA in a FDC NOTAM as an emergency
action of immediate flight safety relating directly to published
aeronautical charts.
The circumstances that created the need for these SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments require making them effective in less than
30 days.
Because of the close and immediate relationship between these
SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find
that notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are
impracticable and contrary to the public interest and, where
applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), good cause exists for making these
SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
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.
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. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
