58634 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 165 / Monday, August 28, 2023 / Notices 

listed under the ADDRESSES section. 

Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2023–1718’’ 

at the beginning of your comments. The 

FAA will consider all comments 

received on or before the closing date. 

All comments received will be available 

in the docket for examination by 

interested persons. 

Background 

The FAA is posting this notice to 

inform the public of the intent to 

designate as abandoned STC No. 

SA1201GL, which authorized a gross 

weight increase for Aeronca Model 65– 

C and S–65–C airplanes, and 

subsequently release the related 

engineering data. 

The FAA has received a third-party 

request for the release of the 

aforementioned engineering data under 

the provisions of the Freedom of 

Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552. 

The FAA cannot release commercial or 

financial information under FOIA 

without the permission of the data 

owner. However, in accordance with 

title 49 of the United States Code 

§ 44704(a)(5), the FAA can provide STC 

‘‘engineering data’’ it possesses for STC 

maintenance or improvement, upon 

request, if the following conditions are 

met: 

1. The FAA determines the STC has 

been inactive for three years or more; 

2. Using due diligence, the FAA is 

unable to locate the owner of record or 

the owner of record’s heir; and 

3. The availability of such data will 

enhance aviation safety. 

There has been no activity with this 

STC holder for more than three years. 

On September 23, 2022, the FAA sent 

a registered letter to the STC holder, 

Lawrence F. Diedrich, at his last known 

address, Route 3, Box 279, Lodi, WI 

53555. The letter informed Mr. Diedrich 

that the FAA had received a request for 

engineering data related to STC No. 

SA1201GL and was conducting a due 

diligence search to determine whether 

the STC was inactive and may be 

considered abandoned. The letter 

further requested Mr. Diedrich to 

respond in writing within 60 days and 

state whether he is the holder of the 

STC. 

Information Requested 

If you are the owner or heir or a 

transferee of STC No. SA1201GL or have 

any knowledge regarding who may now 

hold STC No. SA1201GL, please contact 

JoWanna Jenkins using a method 

described in this notice under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If you 

are the heir of the owner, or the owner 

by transfer, of STC No. SA1201GL, you 

must provide a notarized copy of your 

government-issued identification with a 

letter and background establishing your 

ownership of the STC and, if applicable, 

your relationship as the heir to the 

deceased holder of the STC. 

Conclusion 

If the FAA does not receive any 

response by February 26, 2024, the FAA 

will consider STC No. SA1201GL 

abandoned, and the FAA will proceed 

with the release of the requested data. 

This action is for the purpose of 

maintaining the airworthiness of an 

aircraft and enhancing aviation safety.
