the following new AD: 

2013–01–07 Turbomeca S.A.: Amendment 

39–17321; Docket No. FAA–2012–0940; 

Directorate Identifier 2012–NE–26–AD. 

(a) Effective Date 

This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes 

effective March 7, 2013. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to all Turbomeca S.A. 

Arriel 2D turboshaft engines. 

(d) Reason 

This AD was prompted by a low fuel 

pressure event caused by a deterioration and

Unless already done, replace the HMU 

with an HMU eligible for installation: 

(1) Before the HMU exceeds 800 operating 

hours since new; or 

(2) Within 800 operating hours since last 

replacement of the low-pressure pump 

spindle wheel assembly, high-pressure pump 

complete sleeve, bearings/pinions (matched 

assembly), and sleeve assembly. 

(f) Installation Prohibition 

After the effective date of this AD, do not 

install any HMU onto any engine, or install 

any engine onto any helicopter, unless in 

compliance with the requirements of 

paragraph (e) of this AD. 

(g) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

The Manager, Engine Certification Office, 

may approve AMOCs for this AD. Use the 

procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19 to make 

your request.

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Ontonagon, MI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

airspace at Ontonagon, MI. Additional 

controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate new Area Navigation 

(RNAV) Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures at Ontonagon County— 

Schuster Field Airport. Also, this action 

renames the airport. The FAA is taking 

this action to enhance the safety and 

management of Instrument Flight Rule 

(IFR) operations at the airport. 

DATES: Effective date: 0901 UTC, May 2, 

2013. 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On August 2, 2012, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to amend Class E airspace for the 

Ontonagon, MI, area, creating additional 

controlled airspace at Ontonagon 

County—Schuster Field Airport (77 FR 

45984) Docket No. FAA–2011–1404. 

Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. Class E airspace 

designations are published in paragraph 

6005 of FAA Order 7400.9W dated 

August 8, 2012, and effective September 

15, 2012, which is incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 

airspace designations listed in this 

document will be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

amending Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

to accommodate new standard 

instrument approach procedures at 

Ontonagon County—Schuster Field 

Airport, Ontonagon, MI. This action is 

necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. The airport name is also 

updated from Ontonagon County 

Airport to Ontonagon County—Schuster 

Field Airport to coincide with the 

FAA’s aeronautical database. 

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 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 amends 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with 
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 21 / Thursday, January 31, 2013 / Rules and Regulations 6727 

controlled airspace at Ontonagon 

County—Schuster Field Airport, 

Ontonagon, MI. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. This airspace action is 

not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On August 2, 2012, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking to amend 

Class E airspace at Lincoln, ME (77 FR 

45985) Docket No. FAA–2012–0764. 

Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. Class E airspace 

designations are published in paragraph 

6005 of FAA Order 7400.9W dated 

August 8, 2012, and effective September 

15, 2012, which is incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E 

airspace designations listed in this 

document will be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

amends the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Lincoln, ME, to accommodate the 

new Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures developed for Lincoln 

Regional Airport . The Lincoln NDB has 

been decommissioned, and the NDB 

approach cancelled. The existing Class 

E airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface is being modified 

for the safety and management of IFR 

operations. The Class E radius is 

increased due to terrain in the 

surrounding area. 

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 

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 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 amends controlled airspace at Lincoln 

Regional Airport, Lincoln, ME.

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental
