Docket No. 12–ANE–15] 

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Morrisville, VT 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

Airspace at Morrisville, VT, as the 

Morrisville-Stowe Non-Directional 

Beacon (NDB) has been 

decommissioned and new Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures have 

been developed at Morrisville-Stowe 

State Airport. This action enhances the 

safety and management of Instrument 

Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the 

airport. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, May 2, 2013. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approves this incorporation by reference 

action under title 1, Code of Federal 

Regulations, part 51, subject to the 

annual revision of FAA Order 7400.9 

and publication of conforming 

amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On December 21, 2012, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking to amend 

Class E airspace at Morrisville, VT (77 

FR 75596) Docket No. FAA–2012–0835. 

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 Morrisville, VT, to accommodate the 

new Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures developed for MorrisvilleStowe State Airport . The MorrisvilleStowe NDB has been decommissioned, 

and the NDB approach cancelled. 

Accordingly, the extension of Class E 

airspace to the northeast of the airport 

based on the cancelled NDB is 

eliminated and the basic radius of 

controlled airspace extending upward 

from 700 feet above the surface is 

extended from 4 miles to 14.8 miles. 

This action is necessary due to the 

elevated terrain surrounding 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, 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 Morrisville-Stowe 

State Airport, Morrisville, VT. 

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.

[Docket No. FDA–2013–N–0003] 

Institutional Review Boards; 

Correcting Amendments 

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, 

HHS. 

ACTION: Final rule; correcting 

amendments. 

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug 

Administration (FDA) is amending its 

regulations regarding institutional 

review boards to address a minor 

correction to the regulatory text and to 

update contact information. This action 

is editorial in nature and is intended to 

provide accuracy and clarity to the 

Agency’s regulations. 

DATES: This final rule is effective March 

15, 2013.

Medical Programs, Food and Drug 

Administration, 10903 New Hampshire 

Ave., Bldg. 32, Rm. 5172, Silver Spring, 

MD 20993, 301–796–8346. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is 

amending 21 CFR part 56 to correct a 

minor error in the Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR), and to update 

obsolete information. A minor spelling 

error was introduced inadvertently in 

the CFR when the regulations were first 

published. Also, contact information in 

the regulations is obsolete and in need 

of updating. 

Publication of this document 

constitutes final action under the 

Administrative Procedures Act (5 U.S.C. 

553). FDA has determined that notice 

and public comment are unnecessary 

because this amendment to the 

regulations provides only technical 

changes to correct minor errors and to 

update obsolete information, and is 

nonsubstantive.

and reporting requirements, and Safety. 

Therefore, under the Federal Food, 

Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under 

authority delegated to the Commissioner

PENSION BENEFIT GUARANTY 

CORPORATION 

29 CFR Parts 4022 and 4044 

Allocation of Assets in SingleEmployer Plans; Benefits Payable in 

Terminated Single-Employer Plans; 

Interest Assumptions for Valuing and 

Paying Benefits 

AGENCY: Pension Benefit Guaranty 

Corporation. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule amends the 

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation’s 

regulations on Benefits Payable in 

Terminated Single-Employer Plans and 

Allocation of Assets in Single-Employer 

Plans to prescribe interest assumptions 

under the benefit payments regulation 

for valuation dates in April 2013 and 

interest assumptions under the asset 

allocation regulation for valuation dates 

in the second quarter of 2013. The 

interest assumptions are used for 

valuing and paying benefits under 

terminating single-employer plans 

covered by the pension insurance 

system administered by PBGC. 

DATES: Effective April 1, 2013. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Catherine B. Klion 

(Klion.Catherine@PBGC.gov), Assistant 

General Counsel for Regulatory Affairs, 

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, 

1200 K Street NW., Washington, DC 

20005, 202–326–4024. (TTY/TDD users 

may call the Federal relay service toll 

free at 1–800–877–8339 and ask to be 

connected to 202–326–4024.) 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PBGC’s 

regulations on Allocation of Assets in 

Single-Employer Plans (29 CFR part 

4044) and Benefits Payable in 

Terminated Single-Employer Plans (29 

CFR part 4022) prescribe actuarial 

assumptions—including interest 

assumptions—for valuing and paying 

plan benefits under terminating singleemployer plans covered by title IV of 

the Employee Retirement Income 

Security Act of 1974. The interest 

assumptions in the regulations are also 

published on PBGC’s Web site (http:// 

www.pbgc.gov). 

The interest assumptions in Appendix 

B to Part 4044 are used to value benefits 

for allocation purposes under ERISA 

section 4044. PBGC uses the interest 

assumptions in Appendix B to Part 4022 

to determine whether a benefit is 

payable as a lump sum and to determine 

the amount to pay. Appendix C to Part 

4022 contains interest assumptions for 

private-sector pension practitioners to 

refer to if they wish to use lump-sum 

interest rates determined using PBGC’s 

historical methodology. Currently, the 

rates in Appendices B and C of the 

benefit payment regulation are the same. 

The interest assumptions are intended 

to reflect current conditions in the 

financial and annuity markets. 

Assumptions under the asset allocation 

regulation are updated quarterly; 

assumptions under the benefit payments 

regulation are updated monthly. This 

final rule updates the benefit payments 

interest assumptions for April 2013 and 

updates the asset allocation interest
