SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

amendment to part 97 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 97)

establishes, amends, suspends, or

revokes Standard Instrument Approach

Procedures (SIAPs). The complete

regulatory description of each SIAP is

contained in official FAA form

documents which are incorporated by

reference in this amendment under 5

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and § 97.20

of the Federal Aviation Regulations

(FAR). The applicable FAA Forms are

identified as FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–

4, and 8260–5. Materials incorporated

by reference are available for

examination or purchase as stated

above.

The large number of SIAPs, their

complex nature, and the need for a

special format make their verbatim

publication in the Federal Register

expensive and impractical. Further,

airmen do not use the regulatory text of

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic

depiction on charts printed by

publishers or aeronautical materials.

Thus, the advantages of incorporation

by reference are realized and

publication of the complete description

of each SIAP contained in FAA form

documents is unnecessary. The

provisions of this amendment state the

affected CFR (and FAR) sections, with

the types and effective dates of the

SIAPs. This amendment also identifies

the airport, its location, the procedure

identification and the amendment

number.

The Rule

This amendment to part 97 is effective

upon publication of each separate SIAP

as contained in the transmittal. Some

SIAP amendments may have been

previously issued by the FAA in a

National 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

amendments may require making them

effective in less than 30 days. For the

remaining SIAPs, an effective date at

least 30 days after publication is

provided.

Further, the SIAPs contained in this

amendment are based on the criteria

contained in the U.S. Standard for

Terminal Instrument Approach

Procedures (TERPS). In developing

these SIAPs, 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 and

safety in air commerce, I find that notice

and public procedure before adopting

these SIAPs 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.

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.

33 CFR Part 117

[CCGD08–96–062]

RIN 2115–AE47

Temporary Drawbridge Regulations:

Mississippi River, Iowa and Illinois

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

SUMMARY: This document temporarily

allows four drawbridges on the Upper
5156 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 23 / Tuesday, February 4, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

Mississippi River to change from the ondemand opening requirements

governing drawbridges. This action is

necessary in order for the bridges to

undergo required maintenance. Winter

conditions on the Upper Mississippi

River, coupled with the closure of many

Corps of Engineers’ locks until March

1997, will preclude any significant

navigation demands for bridge

openings.

DATES: Section 117.35–T08–062 is

effective from January 17 through March

1, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Roger K. Wiebusch, Bridge

Administrator; Director, Western Rivers

Operations, Eighth Coast Guard District,

Bridge Branch, 1222 Spruce Street, St.

Louis, MO 63103–2832, telephone 314–

539–3900 extension 378.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

action promulgates temporary

regulations for drawbridge closures due

to required winter bridge maintenance

work. In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 533,

a notice of proposed rulemaking has not

been published and good cause exists

for making this rule effective in less

than 30 days from publication. Delaying

implementation of the regulation will

not benefit navigation and would result

in unnecessary additional operating

costs to the bridge owners.

Discussion of Regulation

These drawbridge operation

amendments have been coordinated

with the commercial waterway industry

by telephone. Director Western Rivers

Operations, Bridge Administration,

contacted the chairman of the River

Industry Action Committee, an

association of commercial towboat

companies that operate on the Upper

Mississippi River. The chairman of the

committee reviewed these changes, and

based on his knowledge of waterway

traffic during the winter, and input from

Committee member companies, was of

the opinion that these amendments

would not have a significant impact on

commercial traffic. Fleeters operating in

the vicinity of the bridges were

contacted and they advised that these

amendments would not have a

significant impact on them because they

plan their movements of single barges in

advance and can give the notice

required.

Locks impacted by these bridges close

during winter conditions on the Upper

Mississippi River because ice formation

hinders navigation. The Clinton

Railroad Drawbridge, Mile 518.0 Upper

Mississippi River, is located between

Lock 12 and 15 and those locks will be

closed during this time period. Rock

Island Railroad and Highway

Drawbridge, Mile 482.9 Upper

Mississippi River, crosses Lock 15 and

that lock is closed during this time

period.

Burlington Railroad Drawbridge, Mile

403.1 Upper Mississippi River, is

located between locks 19 and 22 and

those locks will be closed during this

time period. Keokuk Drawbridge, Mile

364.0 Upper Mississippi River, crosses

lock 19 and that lock will be closed

during this time period.

Performing maintenance on these

bridges during the winter when no

vessels are impacted is preferred to

bridge closures or advance notification

requirements during the commercial

navigation season.

Regulatory Evaluation

This rule is not a significant

regulatory action under section 3(f) of

Executive Order 12866 and does not

require an assessment of potential costs

and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that

order. It has not been reviewed by the

Office of Management and Budget under

that order. It is not significant under the

regulatory policies and procedures of

the Department of Transportation (DOT)

(44 FR 11040; February 26, 1979). The

Coast Guard expects the economic

impact of the rule to be so minimal that

a full Regulatory Evaluation under

paragraph 10e is unnecessary.

Small Entities

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act

(5 U.S.C. § 601 et seq.), the Coast Guard

was required to consider whether this

action will have a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities. ‘‘Small entities’’ may include

(1) small businesses and not-for-profit

organizations that are independently

owned and operated and are not

dominant in their field and (2)

governmental jurisdictions with

populations of less than 50,000. Because

it expects the impact of this action to be

minimal, the Coast Guard certifies

under 5 U.S.C. § 605(b), that this action

will not have a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities.

Collection of Information

This action contains no collection-ofinformation requirements under the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.).

Federalism

This action has been analyzed in

accordance with the principles and

criteria contained in Executive Order

12612, and it has been determined that

the final rule does not raise sufficient

federalism concerns to warrant the

preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

Environmental Assessment

This final rule has been thoroughly

reviewed by the Coast Guard and

determined to be categorically excluded

from further environmental

documentation in accordance with

section 2.B.2.c of Commandant

Instruction M16475.1B.

Substituted Cyclohexyldiamino Ethyl

Esters; Revocation of a Significant

New Use Rule

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: EPA is revoking a significant

new use rule (SNUR) promulgated

under section 5(a)(2) of the Toxic

Substances Control Act (TSCA) for

substituted cyclohexyldiamino ethyl

esters based on receipt of new data.

Based on the data the Agency

determined that it could no longer

support a finding that activities not

described in the PMN may result in

significant changes in environmental

exposure.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of

this rule is March 6, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Susan B. Hazen, Director,

Environmental Assistance Division

(7408), Office of Pollution Prevention

and Toxics, Environmental Protection

Agency, Rm. E–543A, 401 M St., SW.,

Washington, DC 20460; telephone: (202)

554–1404; TDD: (202) 554–0551; e-mail:

TSCA-Hotline@epamail.epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the

Federal Register of October 8, 1992 (57

FR 46458) (FRL–3934–7) EPA issued a

SNUR establishing significant new uses

for substituted cyclohexyldiamino ethyl

esters. Because of additional data EPA

has received for this substance, EPA is

proposing to revoke this SNUR.

I. Background

The Agency proposed the revocation

of the SNUR for this substance in the

Federal Register of April 19, 1996 (61

FR 17272) (FRL–5355–5). The

background and reasons for the

revocation of the SNUR are set forth in

the preamble to the proposed

revocation. The Agency received no

public comment concerning the

proposed revocation. As a result EPA is

revoking this SNUR.

II. Background and Rationale for

Revocation of the Rule

During review of the PMN submitted

for the chemical substance that is the

subject of this revocation, EPA

concluded that regulation was

warranted under § 721.170(b)(4)(ii)

based on the fact that activities not

described in the PMN may result in

significant changes in environmental

exposure. Based on these findings, a

SNUR was promulgated.

EPA has determined that it could no

longer support a finding that activities

not described in the PMN may result in

significant changes in environmental

exposure. The revocation of SNUR

provisions for this substance designated

herein is consistent with this finding.

In light of the above, EPA is revoking

the SNUR provisions for this chemical

substance. When this revocation

becomes final, EPA will no longer

require notice of any company’s intent

to manufacture, import, or process this

substance. In addition, export

notification under section 12(b) of TSCA

will no longer be required.

III. Rulemaking record

The record for the rule which EPA is

revoking was established at OPPTS–

50598 (P–91–1243). This record

includes information considered by the

Agency in developing this rule.

A public version of the record,

without any Confidential Business

Information, is available in the OPPT

Non-Confidential Information Center

(NCIC) from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m., Monday

through Friday, except legal holidays.

The TSCA NCIC is located in the

Northeast Mall Basement Rm. B–607,

401 M St., SW., Washington, DC.

IV. Regulatory Assessment

Requirements

EPA is revoking the requirements of

this rule. Any costs or burdens

associated with this rule will also be

eliminated when the rule is revoked.

Therefore, EPA finds that no costs or

burdens must be assessed under

Executive Order 12866, the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), or the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.).
