Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG Engines
The FAA is correcting a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that published in the Federal Register. The NPRM proposed to issue an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) Model Trent 1000 engines. As published, the docket number referenced throughout the NPRM is incorrect. This document corrects that error. In all other respects, the original document remains the same; however, for clarity, the FAA is publishing the entire proposed rule in the Federal Register.

Notice of Intent To Rule on a Land Release Request for Change in Use from Aeronautical to Non-Aeronautical at Salisbury-Ocean City: Wicomico Regional Airport, Salisbury, MD
The FAA proposes to rule and invites public comment on Wicomico County's request to change 0.15 acres of federally obligated airport property at Salisbury-Ocean City: Wicomico Regional Airport, Salisbury, MD from aeronautical to non-aeronautical use. This acreage was originally purchased with federal financial assistance through the Airport Development Aid Program (ADAP). The proposed use of land will be compatible with the airport and will not interfere with the airport or its operation.
Airworthiness Directives; Leonardo S.p.a. Helicopters
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Leonardo S.p.a. Model A119 and AW119 MKII helicopters. This AD was prompted by a report of an electrical failure of a starter-generator caused by a ruptured drive shaft. This AD requires visually inspecting the drive shaft of an affected starter-generator and depending on the results, performing a dye penetrant inspection. Depending on the results of the dye penetrant inspection, this AD requires replacing the starter-generator, 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.

This notice contains a summary of a petition seeking relief from specified requirements of Federal Aviation Regulations.

Neither publication of this notice nor the inclusion or omission of information in the summary is intended to affect the legal status of the petition or its final disposition.
Rescinding a Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement: Delaware County, NY
The FHWA, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT), is issuing this notice to advise the public that we are rescinding the 2001 Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for a previous proposal to improve NYS Route 17 in Delaware County, New York (the Project, NYSDOT Project Identification Number [PIN] 9066.91). FHWA is rescinding the NOI because a substantial amount of time has passed since its original publication, and previously identified funding and design resources were reprioritized and reallocated to other needs, preventing the progression of the Project.
Update and Clarification of the Passenger Facility Charge Regulations
The FAA proposes to amend its Passenger Facility Charge regulations to implement changes to an existing pilot program that resides within the Passenger Facility Charge program. This Congressionally mandated pilot program simplifies the process for public agencies controlling commercial service airports to obtain FAA authority to impose and use Passenger Facility Charges to fund airport development projects. The FAA also proposes to reaffirm existing program requirements and update or remove obsolete references within the Passenger Facility Charge regulations. Further, this proposed action removes certain Passenger Facility Charge program requirements eliminated in the 2018 FAA reauthorization legislation.
Airworthiness Directives; Airbus SAS Airplanes
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-07-15, which applies to all Airbus SAS Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series airplanes. AD 2022-07-15 requires replacing affected braking and steering control units (BSCUs) and revising the operator's existing FAA-approved minimum equipment list (MEL). Since the FAA issued AD 2022-07-15, a type 1 relay combined with an affected BSCU would induce BSCU freezing. This proposed AD would remove certain airplanes from the applicability, retain the requirements of AD 2022- 07-15, require an inspection for the relay type installed and replacement of type 1 relays with type 2 relays, and prohibit the installation of affected relays at certain locations, limit the installation of affected BSCUs on certain airplanes, and prohibit the installation of affected BSCUs for certain other airplanes, 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.
Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2019-16-05, which applies to all The Boeing Company Model 777 airplanes. AD 2019-16-05 requires an identification of the part number, and if applicable the serial number, of the Captain's and First Officer's seats, and applicable on-condition actions for affected seats. Since the FAA issued AD 2019-16-05, the FAA has discovered that certain seat part numbers had been inadvertently omitted from the inspection requirements of AD 2019-16-05. This proposed AD would retain the requirements of AD 2019-16-05 and would add inspection of the previously omitted part numbers. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Hearing
FMCSA announces receipt of applications from nine individuals for an exemption from the hearing requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) in interstate commerce. If granted, the exemptions would enable these hard of hearing and deaf individuals to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.
Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Narcolepsy
FMCSA announces receipt of an application from one individual for an exemption from the prohibition in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) against operation of a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) in interstate commerce by persons with either a clinical diagnosis of epilepsy or any other condition that is likely to cause a loss of consciousness or any loss of ability to control a CMV. If granted, the exemption would enable this individual who has been diagnosed with narcolepsy and is receiving medical treatment to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.
