**Amendment of Class E Airspace; Grand Forks, ND** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION :**  Final rule, technical amendment.

**SUMMARY :**  This action amends Class E airspace within the Grand Forks, ND, area by amending the geographic coordinates of the Grand Forks International Airport ILS Localizer. The boundaries and operating requirements of the airspace remain the same.

**DATES :**  Effective date: 0901 UTC, June 9, 2014. The Director of the Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under 1 CFR Part 51, subject to the annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 and publication of conforming amendments.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
The Rule

This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by amending the geographic coordinates of the Grand Forks International Airport ILS Localizer from ‘‘(lat. 47 ° 53 ′43 ′′ N., long. 97 ° 10 ′ 52 ′′ W.)’’ to ‘‘(lat. 47 ° 57 ′43 ′′ N., long. 97 ° 10 ′ 52 ′′ W.)’’, to coincide with the FAA’s Aeronautical database. Since this is an administrative change and does not affect the boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the airspace, I find that notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is impracticable and contrary to the public interest.

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. Therefore, this regulation: (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 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.

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 amends controlled airspace in the Grand Forks, ND area. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

**SUMMARY :**  By Resolution No. 2013–8 on December 4, 2013, the Delaware River Basin Commission (‘‘DRBC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) approved amendments to the Commission’s Water Quality Regulations, Water Code and Comprehensive Plan to establish a uniform water quality criterion of 16 picograms per liter for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the Delaware Estuary and Bay, DRBC Water Quality Management Zones 2 through 6, for the protection of human health from carcinogenic effects.

**DATES :**  This regulation is effective June 9, 2014. The incorporation by reference of the publications listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register of Regulations as of June 9,
2014.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Pamela M. Bush, Commission Secretary and Assistant General Counsel by phoning 609–883–9500 Ext. 203, or by email to pamela.bush@drbc.state.nj.us.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The Delaware River Basin Commission is a federal-state regional agency charged with managing the water resources of the Delaware River Basin without regard to political boundaries. Its members are the governors of the four basin states— Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania—and the North Atlantic Division Commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, representing the federal government.

Notice of the proposed amendments appeared in the Federal Register (78 FR 47241) on August 5, 2013 as well as in the Delaware Register of Regulations (17 DE Reg. 143) on August 1, 2013, the New Jersey Register (45 N.J.R. 1907) on August 5, 2013, the New York State Register (page 3) on August 14, 2013 and the Pennsylvania Bulletin (43 Pa.B. 4740) on August 17, 2013. Notice of the proposed changes also was published on the Commission’s Web site on August 2, 2013. A public hearing was held on September 10, 2013 and written comments were accepted through September 20, 2013.

The uniform water quality criterion of 16 picograms per liter for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the Delaware Estuary and Bay for the protection of human health from carcinogenic effects is the product of more than a decade of data-gathering,assessment, debate and consensusbuilding involving dischargers, regulators, scientists, policy-makers and other stakeholders from across the region. The criterion is the product of a rigorous application of the most current available data and methodology, including site-specific data on fish consumption, site-specific bioaccumulation factors, and the current U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) methodology for the development of human health criteria for toxic pollutants ( see EPA–822–B–00–004, October 2000). The criterion will replace the Commission’s current PCB criteria for the Estuary and Bay, which are inconsistent with the current EPA methodology and pre-date the collection of site-specific data that are relevant to the development of human health water quality criteria. The current data also vary by water quality zone, adding undue complexity to application of the criteria in these tidal waters.

In addition to proposing the criterion, the Commission’s notice of proposed rulemaking in August 2013 invited comment on a draft strategy for implementing the criterion for both point and non-point sources. Developed by the DRBC in partnership with the environmental agencies of the states of Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, EPA regions II and III and EPAHeadquarters (collectively, ‘‘the coregulators’’), the draft strategy sets forth detailed approaches for reducing PCB loadings from point and non-point sources over the coming decades. A key objective of the strategy is to provide uniformity and a degree of certainty to NPDES permits that will be issued by the states bordering the Estuary and Bay. Notably, no Commission action on the draft implementation strategy was or is proposed. As DRBC’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking indicated, new total maximum daily loads (‘‘Stage 2 TMDLs’’) for PCBs in the Delaware Estuary and Bay will be established by EPA on behalf of the Estuary states and at their request following publication of this Final Rule. The strategy document will be included as an Appendix to the Stage 2 TMDL report when issued. Until Stage 2 TMDLs based upon the newcriterion are established the coregulators will apply the existing NPDES permit approach, which was published as an appendix to the 2003 (Stage 1) TMDLs for PCBs in the Delaware Estuary.

The complete text of Resolution No. 2013–8, the Water Code, the Administrative Manual Part III—Water Quality Regulations, the basis and background document setting forth the technical basis for the new criterion, the response-to-comment document addressing comments received by DRBC on the proposed criterion and the draft implementation strategy, and additional documents concerning the control of PCBs in the Delaware Estuary all are available on the Commission’s Web site, DRBC.net.

**DELAWARE RIVER BASIN COMMISSION** 

**18 CFR Part 410**

**Notice of Final Rulemaking; Amendments to the Water Quality**  **Regulations, Water Code and Comprehensive Plan To Update Water**  **Quality Criteria for pH**

**AGENCY :**  Delaware River Basin Commission.

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  By Resolution No. 2013–9 on December 4, 2013, the Delaware River Basin Commission (‘‘DRBC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) approved amendments to the Commission’s Water Quality Regulations, Water Code and Comprehensive Plan to update the Commission’s stream quality objectives for pH in interstate tidal and non-tidal reaches of the main stem Delaware River.

**DATES :**  This regulation is effective June 9, 2014. The incorporation by reference of the publications listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register of Regulations as of June 9,
2014.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Pamela M. Bush, Commission Secretary and Assistant General Counsel by phoning 609–883–9500 Ext. 203, or by email to pamela.bush@drbc.state.nj.us.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The Delaware River Basin Commission is a federal-state regional agency charged with managing the water resources of the Delaware River Basin without regard to political boundaries. Its members are the governors of the four basin states— Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania—and the North Atlantic Division Commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, representing the federal government.

Notice of the proposed amendments appeared in the Federal Register (78 FR 58985) on September 25, 2013 as well as in the Delaware Register of Regulations (17 DE Reg. 365) on October 1, 2013, the New Jersey Register (45 N.J.R. 2201) on October 7, 2013, the New York State Register (page 13) on October 9, 2013 and the Pennsylvania Bulletin (43 Pa.B. 5995) on October 12, 2013. Notice of the proposed changes also was published on the Commission’s Web site on September 20, 2013. A public hearing was held on October 24, 2013 and written comments were accepted through November 21, 2013. No written or oral comments were received.

The Commission’s current criteria for pH in interstate streams were adopted in 1967. Today, these criteria are inconsistent with scientists’ increased understanding of natural fluctuations in freshwater and saltwater pH levels and with modern applications of pH criteria. The amendments approved by the Commission on December 4, 2013 will minimize regulatory inconsistencies and better address natural pH cycles in the main stem Delaware River. First, they will increase from 6.0 to 6.5 the lower threshold of the range of acceptable pH conditions in non-tidal zones of the main stem—DRBC Water Quality Zones 1A through 1E. Second, they will add a clause to the pH criteria for all interstate tidal and non-tidal water quality zones, recognizing natural deviations outside the 6.5 to 8.5 pH range. In accordance with these changes, the pH criteria for Water Quality Zones 1A through IE (the non-tidal main stem) and 2 through 6 (the tidal main stem and tidal portions of tributaries) will read, ‘‘Between 6.5 and 8.5 inclusive, unless outside this range due to natural conditions.’’

The affected sections of the commission’s Water Code and Water Quality Regulations consist of subsection C.3 of each of sections 3.20.2 through 3.20.6, respectively, for Water Quality Zones 1A through 1E (non-tidal main stem); and sections 3.30.2 through 3.30.6, respectively, for Water Quality Zones 2 through 6 (tidal main stem and tidal portions of tributaries). (The affected sections relating to Water Quality Zones 1A through 1E were incorrectly identified as sections 2.20.2 and 2.20.6 in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. Sections 2.20.2 through 2.20.6 of the Water Code are part of an unrelated article; no sections numbered 2.20.2 through 2.20.6 exist in the Water Quality Regulations. )

The complete text of Resolution No. 2013–9, the Water Code, the Administrative Manual Part III—Water Quality Regulations, a basis and background document setting forth the technical basis for the amendments, and additional documents concerning pH criteria for interstate non-tidal and tidal reaches of the main stem Delaware River are available on the Commission’s Web site, DRBC.net.
