the main and tail rotors. The FCCs 
process the pilot control input signals depending on the flight control mode in affect. 
Discussion 
The current 14 CFR 29 standards do 
not provide adequate standards for pilot 
awareness of the flight control modes while operating the helicopter. The proposed special condition will require that suitable mode annunciation be provided to the flight crew for events that significantly change the operating mode of the system but do not merit the traditional warnings, cautions, and advisories. 
Applicability 
As discussed above, these special 
conditions are applicable to the BHTI 
Model 525 helicopter. Should BHTI apply at a later date for a change to the type certificate to include another model incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, the special conditions would apply to that model as well. 
Conclusion 
This action affects only certain novel 
or unusual design features on one model 
of rotorcraft. It is not a rule of general applicability.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : In Notice 
No. 164, a notice of proposed rulemaking published in the Federal Register on November 22, 2016 (81 FR 
83752), the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) requested public comment on amendments to its regulations pertaining to the production 
of wine and in particular in regard to the permissible treatments that may be applied to wine and to juice from which wine is made. TTB issued the proposed amendments in response to requests from wine industry members to 
authorize certain wine treating materials and processes not currently authorized by TTB regulations. In Notice No. 164, TTB invited comments on the proposed regulatory changes and the wine treatments and materials issues addressed in that document. The 60-day comment period for Notice No. 164 originally closed on January 23, 2017. In Notice No. 164A, published in the Federal Register on October 11, 2017 (82 FR 47167), TTB reopened the comment period for Notice No. 164 for an additional 90 days in response to industry member requests. 
On October 24, 2017, TTB received a 
letter via the Regulations.gov Web site 
posting for Notice No. 164 from the Wine Institute, a large wine industry trade association based in San Francisco, California, requesting a 90- day extension of the comment period on the wine treating materials regulatory amendments proposed in Notice No. 164. In its letter, the Wine Institute stated that its members required additional time to consider the ‘‘complex and far reaching’’ proposals contained in Notice No. 164, as well as the document’s request for input on other regulatory issues. The Wine Institute stated that TTB reopened the comment period for Notice No. 164 during the recent Northern California wildfires, which caused many of its members to experience calamitous personal and business losses. The Wine Institute also noted that TTB’s proposal is open for comment during the holiday season, when many stakeholders will be unavailable due to commercial and family commitments. The Wine Institute’s letter is posted as Comment 13 to Notice No. 164 within Docket No. TTB–2016–0010 on the Regulations.gov Web site at https://www.regulations.gov). 
In response to this request, TTB is 
extending the comment period for Notice No. 164 for an additional 90 days. Therefore, comments on Notice No. 164 are now due on or before April 9, 2018. Comments on Notice No. 164 may be submitted as described above in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document.

Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS or standard). The infrastructure requirements are designed to ensure that the structural components of each state’s air quality management program are adequate to meet the state’s responsibilities under the CAA. This action pertains specifically to infrastructure requirements concerning interstate transport provisions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
Throughout this document whenever ‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean EPA. This supplementary information section is arranged as follows: 
I. What is the background of this SIP 
submission? 
II. What guidance is EPA using to evaluate 
this SIP submission? 
III. EPA’s Review 
IV. What action is EPA taking? V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 
I. What is the background of this SIP 
submission? 
This rulemaking addresses a 
submission from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA), describing its infrastructure SIP for the 2012 annual PM
2.5NAAQS, 
dated December 4, 2015. Specifically, this rulemaking addresses the portion of the submission dealing with interstate pollution transport under CAA section 110(a)(2)(D)(i), otherwise known as the ‘‘good neighbor’’ provision. The requirement for states to make a SIP submission of this type arises from section 110(a)(1) of the CAA. Pursuant to section 110(a)(1), states must submit ‘‘within 3 years (or such shorter period as the Administrator may prescribe) after the promulgation of a national primary ambient air quality standard (or any revision thereof),’’ a plan that provides for the ‘‘implementation, maintenance, and enforcement’’ of such NAAQS. The statute directly imposes on states the duty to make these SIP submissions, and the requirement to make the submissions is not conditioned upon EPA’s taking any action other than promulgating a new or revised NAAQS. Section 110(a)(2) includes a list of specific elements that ‘‘[e]ach such plan’’ submission must address. EPA commonly refers to such state plans as ‘‘infrastructure SIPs.’’ II. What guidance is EPA using to 
evaluate this SIP submission? 
EPA highlighted the statutory 
requirement to submit infrastructure SIPs within 3 years of promulgation of a new NAAQS in a October 2, 2007, guidance document entitled ‘‘Guidance on SIP Elements Required Under Sections 110(a)(1) and (2) for the 1997 8-hour Ozone and PM
2.5National 
Ambient Air Quality Standards’’ (2007 guidance). EPA has issued additional guidance documents and memoranda, including a September 13, 2013, guidance document titled ‘‘Guidance on Infrastructure State Implementation Plan (SIP) Elements under Clean Air Act Sections 110(a)(1) and 110(a)(2)’’ (2013 guidance). 
The most recent relevant document 
was a memorandum published on March 17, 2016, titled ‘‘Information on the Interstate Transport ‘‘Good Neighbor’’ Provision for the 2012 Fine Particulate Matter National Ambient Air Quality Standards under Clean Air Act Section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I)’’ (2016 memorandum). The 2016 memorandum describes EPA’s past approach to addressing interstate transport, and provides EPA’s general review of relevant modeling data and air quality projections as they relate to the 2012 annual PM
2.5NAAQS. The 2016 
memorandum provides information relevant to EPA Regional office review of the CAA section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) ‘‘good neighbor’’ provision in infrastructure SIPs with respect to the 2012 annual PM
2.5NAAQS. This 
rulemaking considers information provided in that memorandum. 
The 2016 memorandum provides 
states and EPA Regional offices with future year annual PM
2.5design values 
for monitors in the United States based on quality assured and certified ambient monitoring data and air quality modeling. The memorandum further describes how these projected potential design values can be used to help determine which monitors should be further evaluated to potentially address whether emissions from other states significantly contribute to nonattainment or interfere with maintenance of the 2012 annual PM
2.5 
NAAQS at those sites. The 2016 memorandum explained that the pertinent year for evaluating air quality for purposes of addressing interstate transport for the 2012 PM
2.5NAAQS is 
2021, the attainment deadline for 2012 PM
2.5NAAQS nonattainment areas 
classified as Moderate. Accordingly, because the available data included 2017 and 2025 projected average and maximum PM
2.5design values
