7200 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 28 / Thursday, February 11, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 

The Special Conditions 

■ Accordingly, pursuant to the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the following special conditions are 

issued as part of the type certification 

basis for the Boeing Model 737–8 series 

airplanes. 

Design Roll Maneuver Condition 

In lieu of compliance to § 25.349(a): 

The following conditions, speeds, and 

cockpit roll-control motions (except as the 

motions may be limited by pilot effort) must 

be considered in combination with an 

airplane load factor of zero and of two-thirds 

of the positive maneuvering factor used in 

design. In determining the resulting controlsurface deflections, the torsional flexibility of 

the wing must be considered in accordance 

with § 25.301(b): 

1. The applicant must investigate 

conditions corresponding to steady rolling 

velocities. In addition, conditions 

corresponding to maximum angular 

acceleration must be investigated for 

airplanes with engines or other weight 

concentrations outboard of the fuselage. For 

the angular acceleration conditions, zero 

rolling velocity may be assumed in the 

absence of a rational time-history 

investigation of the maneuver. 

2. At VA, sudden movement of the cockpit 

roll control up to the limit is assumed. The 

position of the cockpit roll control must be 

maintained until a steady roll rate is 

achieved and then must be returned 

suddenly to the neutral position. 

3. At VC, the cockpit roll control must be 

moved suddenly and maintained so as to 

achieve a roll rate not less than that obtained 

in Special Condition 2, above. 

4. At VD, the cockpit roll control must be 

moved suddenly and maintained so as to 

achieve a roll rate not less than one third of 

that obtained in Special Condition 2, above. 

Issued in Renton, Washington, on January 

20, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, 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 establishes 

Class E airspace at Clinton Municipal 

Airport, Clinton, AR. 

History 

On November 30, 2015, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to establish Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Clinton Municipal Airport, Clinton, 

AR. (80 FR 74736). Interested parties 

were invited to participate in this 

rulemaking effort by submitting written 

comments on the proposal to the FAA. 

No comments were received. The FAA 

also notes that in the NPRM, the state 

identifier was incorrectly written as LA, 

and is corrected in the airspace 

description to AR. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

part 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

Order. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.9Z, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015. FAA 

Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR), Part 71 by 

establishing Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

within a 6.0-mile radius of Clinton 

Municipal Airport, Clinton, AR, to 

accommodate new Standard Instrument 

Approach Procedures for IFR operations 

at the airport. Also, the correct state 

identifier is noted in the airspace 

description, changing it from LA to AR. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. 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

1 42 U.S.C. 6294. EPCA also requires the 

Department of Energy (‘‘DOE’’) to set minimum 

efficiency standards and develop test procedures to 

measure energy use. 

2Previously, the Commission announced its 

intention to update the clothes washer ranges based 

on test data derived from updated DOE test 

requirements. See 80 FR 67351, 67355, n. 29 (Nov. 

2, 2015). 3 5 U.S.C. 605. 

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 only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action 

is not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exists 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 

16 CFR Part 305 

RIN 3084–AB03 

Energy Labeling Rule 

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) amends 

its Energy Labeling Rule (‘‘Rule’’) by 

publishing new ranges of comparability 

for required EnergyGuide labels on 

clothes washers. 

DATES: The amendments announced in 

this document will become effective 

May 11, 2016. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Hampton Newsome, Attorney, Division 

of Enforcement, Federal Trade 

Commission, Washington, DC 20580 

(202–326–2889). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Commission issued the Energy 

Labeling Rule in 1979, 44 FR 66466 

(Nov. 19, 1979) pursuant to the Energy 

Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 

(‘‘EPCA’’).1 The Rule covers several 

categories of major household products, 

including clothes washers. It requires 

manufacturers of covered products to 

disclose specific energy consumption or 

efficiency information (derived from 

Department of Energy (‘‘DOE’’) test 

procedures) at the point-of-sale. In 

addition, each label must include a 

‘‘range of comparability’’ indicating the 

highest and lowest energy consumption 

or efficiencies for comparable models. 

The Commission updates these ranges 

periodically. 

II. Range Updates for Clothes Washers 

The Commission amends its 

comparability ranges for clothes 

washers in the Rule based on 

manufacturer model data derived from 

the DOE test procedures and submitted 

to DOE (https://

www.regulations.doe.gov/ccms).2 The 

amendments update the ranges in 

Appendix F1 and F2 and the sample 

labels in Appendix L of the Rule. The 

amendments also include conforming 

changes to sections 305.7, 305.10, and 

305.11 to remove obsolete regulatory 

text applicable to models produced 

before March 7, 2015. Manufacturers 

have until May 11, 2016 to begin using 

the updated ranges on their labels. As 

indicated in section 305.10(a) of the 

Rule, products that have been labeled 

prior to this effective date need not be 

relabeled. 

III. Administrative Procedure Act 

The amendments published in this 

document involve routine, technical 

and minor, or conforming changes to the 

labeling requirements in the Rule. 

Accordingly, the Commission has good 

cause under section 553(b)(B) of the 

APA to forgo notice-and comment 

procedures for these rule amendments. 

5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B). These technical 

amendments merely provide a routine, 

conforming change to the range 

information required on EnergyGuide 

labels. The Commission therefore finds 

for good cause that public comment for 

these technical, procedural amendments 

is impractical and unnecessary. 

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The provisions of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act relating to a Regulatory 

Flexibility Act analysis (5 U.S.C. 603– 

604) are not applicable to this 

proceeding because the amendments do 

not impose any new obligations on 

entities regulated under the Energy 

Labeling Rule. These technical 

amendments merely provide a routine 

change to the range information 

required on EnergyGuide labels. Thus, 

the amendments will not have a 

‘‘significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities.’’ 3

The Commission has concluded, 

therefore, that a regulatory flexibility 

analysis is not necessary, and certifies, 

under Section 605 of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), that the 

amendments announced today will not 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities. 

V. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The current Rule contains 

recordkeeping, disclosure, testing, and 

reporting requirements that constitute 

information collection requirements as 

defined by 5 CFR 1320.3(c), the 

definitional provision within the Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB)
