safety, Safety. 

The Amendment 

■ In consideration of the foregoing, the 

Federal Aviation Administration 

amends part 33 of the Federal Aviation 

Regulations (14 CFR part 33) as follows: 

PART 33—AIRWORTHINESS 

STANDARDS: AIRCRAFT ENGINES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 33 

continues to read as follows: 

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

44702, 44704. 

■ 2. Section 33.17 is revised to read as 

follows: 

§ 33.17 Fire Protection. 

(a) The design and construction of the 

engine and the materials used must 

minimize the probability of the 

occurrence and spread of fire during 

normal operation and failure conditions, 

and must minimize the effect of such a 

fire. In addition, the design and 

construction of turbine engines must 

minimize the probability of the 

occurrence of an internal fire that could 

result in structural failure or other 

hazardous effects. 

(b) Except as provided in paragraph 

(c) of this section, each external line, 

fitting, and other component, which 

contains or conveys flammable fluid 

during normal engine operation, must 

be fire resistant or fireproof, as 

determined by the Administrator. 

Components must be shielded or 

located to safeguard against the ignition 

of leaking flammable fluid. 

(c) A tank, which contains flammable 

fluids and any associated shut-off means 

and supports, which are part of and 

attached to the engine, must be fireproof 

either by construction or by protection 

unless damage by fire will not cause 

leakage or spillage of a hazardous 

quantity of flammable fluid. For a 

reciprocating engine having an integral 

oil sump of less than 23.7 liters 

capacity, the oil sump need not be 

fireproof or enclosed by a fireproof 

shield. 

(d) An engine component designed, 

constructed, and installed to act as a 

firewall must be: 

(1) Fireproof; 

(2) Constructed so that no hazardous 

quantity of air, fluid or flame can pass 

around or through the firewall; and, 

(3) Protected against corrosion; 

(e) In addition to the requirements of 

paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, 

engine control system components that 

are located in a designated fire zone 

must be fire resistant or fireproof, as 

determined by the Administrator. 

(f) Unintentional accumulation of 

hazardous quantities of flammable fluid 

within the engine must be prevented by 

draining and venting. 

(g) Any components, modules, or 

equipment, which are susceptible to or 

are potential sources of static discharges 

or electrical fault currents must be 

designed and constructed to be properly 

grounded to the engine reference, to 

minimize the risk of ignition in external 

areas where flammable fluids or vapors 

could be present.

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Ironwood, MI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

airspace at Ironwood, MI. Additional 

controlled airspace is necessary to 

accommodate Area Navigation (RNAV) 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures (SIAP) at Gogebic Iron 

County Airport, Ironwood, MI. This 

action also makes a minor change to the 

airspace description, removing the 

reference to the Ironwood ILS. The FAA 

is taking this action to enhance the 

safety and management of Instrument 

Flight Rule (IFR) operations at Gogebic 

Iron County Airport. 

DATES: Effective Date: 0901 UTC, 

October 22, 2009. 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: 

History 

On February 12, 2009, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking to amend 

Class E airspace at Ironwood, MI, 

adding additional controlled airspace at 

Gogebic Iron County Airport, Ironwood, 

MI. (74 FR 7011, Docket No. FAA– 

2009–0052). Interested parties were 

invited to participate in this rulemaking 

effort by submitting written comments 

on the proposal to the FAA. No 

comments were received. Subsequent to 

publication the National Aeronautical 

Charting Office notified the FAA that 

the extension defined by the Ironwood 

ILS was not needed. With the exception 

of editorial changes, and the changes 

described above, this rule is the same as 

that proposed in the NPRM. Class E 

airspace designations are published in 

paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9S 

signed October 3, 2008, and effective 

October 31, 2008, 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 at Ironwood, 

MI, adding additional controlled 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface at Gogebic Iron 

County Airport, Ironwood, MI, and 

removes reference to the Ironwood ILS 

in the airspace description. This action 

is necessary for the safety and 

management of IFR aircraft operations at 

the airport. 

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 


erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 145 / Thursday, July 30, 2009 / Rules and Regulations 37931 

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 adds 

additional controlled airspace at 

Gogebic Iron County Airport, Ironwood, 

MI.
