Advisory circular No. 11–2A, Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking distribution 

System, which describes the application 

procedure. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by 

modifying Class D airspace and Class E 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface by amending the 

geographic coordinates of Henry E. 

Rohlsen Airport, Christiansted, St. 

Croix, VI, to bring it in concert with the 

FAAs aeronautical database. The 

coordinates would change from 

(lat.17°42′07′′ N., long. 64°47′55′′ W.) to 

(lat. 17°42′06′′ N., long. 64°48′06′′ W.) 

Also, the airport formerly called 

Alexander Hamilton Airport would be 

changed to Henry E Rohlsen Airport. 

Class D and Class E airspace 

designations are published in 

Paragraphs 5000 and 6005, respectively, 

of FAA Order 7400.9X, dated August 7, 

2013, and effective September 15, 2013, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1. The Class D and Class E 

airspace designation listed in this 

document will be published 

subsequently in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed 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. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this 

proposed rule, when promulgated, 

would not have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities under the criteria of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act.

2The Commission issued the Wool Rules to 

implement the Wool Products Labeling Act of 1939, 

15 U.S.C. 68–68j. 

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 proposed 

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 proposed regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

would amend Class D and Class E 

airspace at Henry E Rohlsen Airport, 

Christiansted, St. Croix, VI. 

This proposal would be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 

16 CFR Part 300 

Rules and Regulations Under the Wool 

Products Labeling Act 

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission 

(‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’). 

ACTION: Extension of the deadline for 

filing public comments. 

SUMMARY: The Commission grants an 

eight (8) day extension until December 

3, 2013 for filing public comments in 

response to the Commission’s Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking published on 

September 20, 2013 (‘‘NPRM’’). 

DATES: Comments for the NPRM 

published on September 20, 2013 (78 FR 

57808) must be submitted by December 

3, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties may file a 

comment online or on paper, by 

following the instructions in the 

NPRM.1 Write ‘‘Wool Rules, 16 CFR Part 

300, Project No. P124201’’ on your 

comment, and file your comment online 

at https://ftcpublic.commentworks.com/

ftc/woolrulesnprm by following the 

instructions on the web-based form. If 

you prefer to file your comment on 

paper, mail or deliver your comment to 

the following address: Federal Trade 

Commission, Office of the Secretary, 

Room H–113 (Annex Q), 600 

Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, 

DC 20580. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Robert M. Frisby, Attorney, (202) 326– 

2098, Division of Enforcement, Bureau 

of Consumer Protection, Federal Trade 

Commission, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue 

NW., Washington, DC 20580. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

September 20, 2013, the Commission 

published its NPRM seeking comment 

on the Commission’s proposed 

amendments to the Rules and 

Regulations under the Wool Products 

Labeling Act of 1939 (‘‘Wool Rules’’).2

The NPRM designated November 25, 

2013, as the deadline for filing public 

comments. 

On November 20, 2013, the Embassy 

of Australia contacted the Commission 

on behalf of the Federation of Australian 

Wool Organisations (‘‘FAWO’’) to seek 

an eight (8) day extension of the 

comment deadline until December 3, 

2013. It explained that the FAWO will 

be participating in a meeting of the 

International Wool Textile Organisation 

(‘‘IWTO’’) in Guangzhou, China, on 

November 25–26, 2013, to discuss the 

proposed amendments. FAWO contends 

that the record will benefit from 

comments informed by the meeting 

deliberations given the role of the IWTO 

in representing wool industry 

stakeholders at an international level. 

FAWO’s input would likely assist the 

Commission in evaluating the proposed 

amendments to the Wool Rules. 

Moreover, the requested short extension 

of the comment period will not 

substantially delay the rulemaking 

process. The Commission recognizes 

that its NPRM addresses complex issues 

and believes that extending the 

comment period to facilitate a more 

complete record outweighs any harm 

that might result from an eight (8) day 

delay. Accordingly, the Commission is 

extending the comment period for eight 

(8) days until December 3, 2013. 

By direction of the Commission. 

Janice Podoll Frankle, 

Acting Secretary.
