Docket No. 13–ACE–9] 

Proposed Amendment of Class E 

Airspace; Eagle Grove, IA 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: This action proposes to 

amend Class E airspace at Eagle Grove, 

IA. Decommissioning of the Eagle Grove 

non-directional radio beacon (NDB) at 

Eagle Grove Municipal Airport has 

made airspace reconfiguration necessary 

for standard instrument approach 

procedures and for the safety and 

management of Instrument Flight Rules 

(IFR) operations at the airport. 

Geographic coordinates also would be 

adjusted. 

DATES: 0901 UTC. Comments must be 

received on or before April 17, 2014.

Advisory Circular No. 11–2A, Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking Distribution 

System, which describes the application 

procedure. 

The Proposal 

This action proposes to amend Title 

14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 

CFR), Part 71 by modifying Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Eagle Grove 

Municipal Airport, Eagle Grove, IA, for 

standard instrument approach 

procedures at the airport. Airspace 

reconfiguration is necessary due to the 

decommissioning of the Eagle Grove 

NDB and the cancellation of the NDB 

approach. The segment northwest of the 

airport would now be within 2.6 miles 

each side of the 305° bearing from the 

airport. Controlled airspace is necessary 

for the safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. Geographic 

coordinates would also be adjusted to 

coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

Class E airspace areas are published 

in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 

7400.9X, dated August 7, 2013 and 

effective September 15, 2013, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document would be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed 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. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this rule, 

when promulgated, will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, 

Section 106 describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 

Aviation Programs, describes in more 

detail the scope of the agency’s 

authority. This rulemaking is 

promulgated under the authority 

described in Subtitle VII, Part A, 

Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it would 

amend controlled airspace at Eagle 

Grove Municipal Airport, Eagle Grove, 

IA. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Certification Program for Access to the 

Death Master File 

AGENCY: National Technical Information 

Service, U.S. Department of Commerce. 

ACTION: Request for Information and 

Advance Notice of Public Meeting. 

SUMMARY: Section 203 of the Bipartisan 

Budget Act of 2013 (Act), directed the 

Secretary of Commerce to establish a 

certification program under which 

persons may obtain immediate access to 

the publicly available Death Master File 

(DMF). The National Technical 

Information Service is requesting 

comments from the public regarding the 

establishment and implementation of a 

certification program for access to the 

DMF. It is expected that information 

gathered through this RFI will inform 

NTIS’s approach to the development of 

a certification program, which will be 

promulgated by NTIS by Notice and 

Comment Rulemaking. 

In addition, NTIS will hold a public 

meeting at which members of the public 

will be invited to provide comments in 

person. More information about the 

public meeting is provided under 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. 

DATES: Comments are due on or before 

5:00 p.m. Eastern time March 18, 2014. 

The public meeting will take place on 

Tuesday, March 4, 2014, from 9:00 a.m. 

to 12:00 p.m. Eastern time at the place 

noted under ADDRESSES, and comments 

made orally during the public comment 

portion of the public meeting will be 

recorded and transcribed. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments must be 

submitted to John Hounsell by email at 

jhounsell@ntis.gov, or in paper form at 

NTIS, 5301 Shawnee Road, Alexandria, 

VA 22312. The public meeting will take 

place at the United States Patent and 

Trademark Office, Madison Building 

West, 600 Dulany Street, Alexandria,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

Request for Information (RFI) seeks 

comments from the public regarding the 

establishment by the National Technical 

Information Service (NTIS) of the new 

certification program for persons who 

seek access to the Social Security 

Administration’s Public Death Master 

File (DMF) at any time within the threecalendar-year period following an 

individual’s death, as required by 

Section 203 of the Bipartisan Budget Act 

of 2013 (Pub. L. 113–67) (Act). The Act 

prohibits disclosure of DMF information 

during the three-calendar-year period 

following death unless the person 

requesting the information has been 

certified under a program established by 

the Secretary of Commerce. The Act 

directs the Secretary of Commerce to 

establish a certification program for 

such access to the DMF. Section 203, 

‘‘Restriction on Access to the Death 

Master File,’’ requires a fee-based 

certification program for allowable uses 

of DMF data for any deceased 

individual within three calendar years 

of the individual’s death. Authority to 

carry out Section 203 has been 

delegated by the Secretary of Commerce 

to the National Technical Information 

Service (NTIS). 

NTIS will establish the certification 

program in a manner consistent with the 

Act and its mission, to promote 

American innovation and economic 

growth by collecting and disseminating 

scientific, technical and engineering 

information to the public and industry, 

by providing information management 

solutions to other Federal agencies, and 

by doing all without appropriated 

funding. A summary of the provisions of 

Section 203 is provided below. 

Section 203, ‘‘Restriction on Access to 

the Death Master File’’ 

Section 203(a) of the Act directs that 

the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) 

‘‘shall not disclose to any person 

information contained on the Death 

Master File with respect to any deceased 

individual at any time during the 3- 

calendar-year period beginning on the 

date of the individual’s death, unless 

such person is certified under the 

program established under subsection 

(b)’’ of Section 203. 

Section 203(b)(1) of the Act directs 

the Secretary to ‘‘establish a program (A) 

to certify persons who are eligible to 

access the information described in 

subsection (a) contained on the Death 

Master File, and (B) to perform periodic 

and unscheduled audits of certified 

persons to determine the compliance by 

such certified persons with the 

requirements of the program.’’ 

Under Section 203(b)(2) of the Act, a 

person ‘‘shall not be certified under the 

program established under paragraph (1) 

unless such person certifies that access 

to the information described in 

subsection (a) is appropriate because 

such person (A) has (i) a legitimate 

fraud prevention interest, or (ii) a 

legitimate business purpose pursuant to 

a law, governmental rule, regulation, or 

fiduciary duty, and (B) has systems, 

facilities, and procedures in place to 

safeguard such information, and 

experience in maintaining the 

confidentiality, security, and 

appropriate use of such information, 

pursuant to requirements similar to the 

requirements of section 6103(p)(4) of the 

Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC), 

and (C) agrees to satisfy the 

requirements of such section 6103(p)(4) 

as if such section applied to such 

person.’’ 

Section 203(b)(3)(A) of the Act directs 

the Secretary to ‘‘establish under section 

9701 of title 31, United States Code, a 

program for the charge of fees sufficient 

to cover (but not to exceed) all costs 

associated with evaluating applications 

for certification and auditing, 

inspecting, and monitoring certified 

persons under the program. Any fees so 

collected shall be deposited and
