PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive (AD): 

2011–20–51 Pratt & Whitney Canada: 

Amendment 39–16843; Docket No. 

FAA–2011–1038; Directorate Identifier 

2011–NE–31–AD. 

(a) Effective Date 

This AD is effective November 1, 2011 to 

all persons except those persons to whom it 

was made immediately effective by 

Emergency AD 2011–20–51, issued on 

September 15, 2011, which contained the 

requirements of this amendment. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to Pratt & Whitney Canada 

PT6A–15AG, –27, –28, –34, –34AG, –34B, 

and –36 series turboprop engines that have 

had maintenance done to the power section 

module involving first stage reduction sun 

gear replacement since February 3, 2010, and 

having a Timken Alcor Aerospace 

Technologies, Inc. (TAATI) part 

manufacturer approval (PMA) replacement 

first stage reduction sun gear, part number 

(P/N) E3024765, serial numbers (S/Ns) PC5– 

091 through PC5–176, installed. 

(d) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by failures of 

certain first stage reduction sun gears, 

manufactured by TAATI. We are issuing this 

AD to prevent failure of the shaft portion of 

the sun gear, which will result in an engine

utilization of the restricted areas and 

provides increased public access to the 

area on weekends. 

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, 

December 15, 2011.

Gallant, Airspace, Regulations and ATC 

Procedures Group, AJV–11, Office of

Administration, 800 Independence 

Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; 

telephone: (202) 267–8783. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The U.S. Air Force requested the FAA 

to amend the time of designation for the 

Dare County Range restricted areas by 

removing the specific published times 

on Saturday and Sunday. Military use of 

the restricted areas on Saturday and 

Sunday would still be available through 

issuance of a NOTAM six hours in 

advance. The change reflects current 

utilization of the restricted areas and 

increases the availability of the airspace 

to the public on weekends. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 73 by 

reducing the published time of 

designation of restricted areas R–5314A, 

B, C, D, E, F, H, and J, Dare County, NC, 

by removing the words ‘‘0700–1800 

local time Saturday–Sunday.’’ The 

restricted areas would continue to be 

available for weekend use by NOTAM 

issued six hours in advance. 

This change reduces the time of 

designation for the restricted areas 

thereby increasing public access to the 

airspace. Because the amendment does 

not affect the boundaries, designated 

altitudes, or activities conducted within 

the restricted area and lessens the 

burden on the public, notice and public 

procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are 

unnecessary. 

The FAA has determined that this 

action 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. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with 311c., 

FAA Order 1050.1E, Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures. This 

airspace action is an administrative 

change to the descriptions of the 

affected restricted areas to reduce the 

time of designation. It does not alter the 

dimensions, altitudes, or activities 

conducted within the airspace; 

therefore, it is not expected to cause any 

potentially significant environmental 

impacts, and no extraordinary 

circumstances exists that warrant 

preparation of an environmental 

assessment.

14 CFR Part 97 

[Docket No. 30806; Amdt. No. 3446 ] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums 

and Obstacle Departure Procedures; 

Miscellaneous Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This establishes, amends, 

suspends, or revokes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff 

Minimums and Obstacle Departure 

Procedures for operations at certain 

airports. These regulatory actions are 

needed because of the adoption of new 

or revised criteria, or because of changes 

occurring in the National Airspace 

System, such as the commissioning of 

new navigational facilities, adding new 

obstacles, or changing air traffic 

requirements. These changes are 

designed to provide safe and efficient 

use of the navigable airspace and to 

promote safe flight operations under 

instrument flight rules at the affected 

airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective October 17, 

2011. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

regulations is approved by the Director 

of the Federal Register as of October 17, 

2011. 

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment is as follows:

Telephone: (405) 954–4164. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by 

establishing, amending, suspending, or 

revoking SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums 

and/or ODPS. The complete regulators 

description of each SIAP and its 

associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP 

for an identified airport is listed on FAA 

form documents which are incorporated 

by reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR part 97.20. The applicable FAA 

Forms are FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–4, 

8260–5, 8260–15A, and 8260–15B when 

required by an entry on 8260–15A. 

The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, in addition to 

their complex nature and the need for 

a special format make publication in the 

Federal Register expensive and 

impractical. Furthermore, airmen do not 

use the regulatory text of the SIAPs, 

Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead 

refer to their depiction on charts printed 

by publishers of aeronautical materials. 

The advantages of incorporation by 

reference are realized and publication of 

the complete description of each SIAP, 

Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on 

FAA forms is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAPs 

and the effective dates of the, associated 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs. This 

amendment also identifies the airport 

and its location, the procedure, and the 

amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODP as contained in the transmittal. 

Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and 

textual ODP amendments may have 

been issued previously by the FAA in a 

Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to 

Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency 

action of immediate flight safety relating 

directly to published aeronautical 

charts. The circumstances which 

created the need for some SIAP and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODP 

amendments may require making them 

effective in less than 30 days. For the 

remaining SIAPS and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPS, an effective date 

at least 30 days after publication is 

provided. 

Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPS contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPS and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find 

that notice and public procedures before 

adopting these SIAPS, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs are impracticable 

and contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, that good cause exists 

for making some SIAPs effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

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. 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. For the same 

reason, the FAA certifies that this 

amendment will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
