Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Engines
Document Number: 2024-18354
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2024-08-19
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Pratt & Whitney (PW) Model PW1519G, PW1521G, PW1521GA, PW1521G-3, PW1524G, PW1524G-3, PW1525G, PW1525G-3, PW1919G, PW1921G, PW1922G, PW1923G, and PW1923G-A engines with a certain high-pressure compressor (HPC) 7th-stage axial rotor installed. This proposed AD was prompted by an analysis of an event involving an International Aero Engines, LLC (IAE LLC) Model PW1127GA-JM engine, which experienced an HPC 7th-stage integrally bladed rotor (IBR-7) separation that resulted in an aborted takeoff. This proposed AD would require performing initial and repetitive angled ultrasonic inspections (AUSI) of certain HPC 7th-stage axial rotors for cracks and replacing the HPC 7th-stage axial rotors if necessary. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Pipeline Safety: Cost Recovery for Siting Reviews for LNG Facilities
Document Number: 2024-18138
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2024-08-19
Agency: Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, Department of Transportation
PHMSA is proposing a new fee for cost recovery for siting reviews of liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility project applications where the design and construction costs total $2.5 billion or more. This proposed rule is necessary to implement section 103 of the Protecting our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety Act of 2020 (PIPES Act of 2020), and to help provide adequate resources for siting reviews to promote the public safety and environmental protection objectives of the Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS). This proposed rule also revises current regulations authorizing PHMSA's cost recovery for design safety reviews of gas, hazardous liquid, and carbon dioxide pipeline facilities to improve the clarity of the regulations and reduce unnecessary administrative burdens.
Revocation of Class E Airspace; Manchester, NH
Document Number: 2024-18435
Type: Rule
Date: 2024-08-19
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action removes Class E surface airspace for Manchester Boston Regional Airport, Manchester, NH, as the overlying Class C airspace deems the Class E surface airspace unnecessary.
Amendment of Jet Route J-211 and Revocation of VOR Federal Airway V-41; Youngstown, OH
Document Number: 2024-18431
Type: Rule
Date: 2024-08-19
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action amends Jet Route J-211 and revokes Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airway V-41. The FAA is taking this action due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of the Youngstown, OH (YNG), VOR/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) navigational aid (NAVAID). The Youngstown VOR is being decommissioned in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) program.
