Termination of Nonmanufacturer Rule 

Class Waiver 

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business 

Administration. 

ACTION: Notification of intent to 

terminate the class waiver to the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for radiology 

equipment. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business 

Administration (SBA) is considering 

terminating a class waiver of the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule (NMR) for 

irradiation apparatus manufacturing, 

computerized axial tomography (CT/ 

CAT) scanners manufacturing; CT/CAT 

(computerized axial tomography) 

scanners manufacturing; fluoroscopes 

manufacturing; fluoroscopic X-ray 

apparatus and tubes manufacturing; 

generators, X-ray, manufacturing; 

irradiation equipment manufacturing; 

X-ray generators manufacturing; and Xray irradiation equipment 

manufacturing under manufacturing 

categorized under North American 

Industry Classification System (NAICS) 

code 334517 and Product Service Code 

(PSC) 6525. An awardee of a Federal 

small business set-aside contract valued 

over $250,000.00, service-disabled 

veteran-owned small business contract, 

HUBZone contract, women-owned 

small business contract, or 8(a) contract 

must provide its own product or that of 

a small business manufacturer unless a 

waiver is in place. If the aboveidentified class waiver is terminated, 

small businesses will no longer be 

authorized to provide the product of any 

manufacturer regardless of size on the 

identified items, unless a Federal 

contracting officer obtains an individual 

waiver to the NMR. 

DATES: Comments and source 

information must be submitted on or 

before 03/09/2022. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

and source information via the Federal 

Rulemaking Portal at https://

www.regulations.gov under Docket ID 

SBA–2020–0048. If you wish to submit 

confidential business information (CBI) 

as defined in the User Notice at https:// 

www.regulations.gov, please submit the 

information to Carol Hulme, Attorney 

Advisor, Office of Government 

Contracting, U.S. Small Business 

Administration, 409 Third Street SW, 

8th Floor, Washington, DC 20416. 

Highlight the information that you 

consider to be CBI and explain why you 

believe this information should be held 

confidential. SBA will review the 

information and make a final 

determination as to whether the 

information will be published. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Carol Hulme, Attorney Advisor, by 

telephone at 202–205–6347 or by email

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

8(a)(17) and 46 of the Small Business 

Act (Act), 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17) and 657s, 

and SBA’s implementing regulations, 

found at 13 CFR 121.406(b), require that 

recipients of Federal supply contracts 

issued as a small business set-aside 

(except as stated below), servicedisabled veteran-owned small business 

(SDVO SB) set-aside or sole source 

contract, Historically Underutilized 

Business Zone (HUBZone) set-aside or 

sole source contract, WOSB (womenowned small business) or economically 

disadvantaged women-owned small 

business (EDWOSB) set-aside or sole 

source contract, 8(a) set-aside or sole 

source contract, partial set-aside, or set 

aside of an order against a multiple 

award contract provide the product of a 

small business manufacturer or 

processor if the recipient is other than 

the actual manufacturer or processor of 

the product. This requirement is 

commonly referred to as the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule (NMR). 13 CFR 

121.406(b). Note that the NMR does not 

apply to small business set-aside 

acquisitions with an estimated value 

between the micro-purchase threshold 

and the simplified acquisition threshold 

but continues to apply to socioeconomic 

categories over the micropurchase 

threshold. 

Sections 8(a)(17)(B)(iv)(II) and 

46(a)(4)(B) of the Act authorize SBA to 

waive the NMR for a ‘‘class of products’’ 

for which there are no small business 

manufacturers or processors available to 

participate in the Federal market. The 

SBA defines ‘‘class of products’’ based 

on a combination of (1) the six-digit 

NAICS code, (2) the four-digit PSC, and 

(3) a description of the class of products. 

As implemented in SBA’s regulations at 

13 CFR 121.1202(c), in order to be 

considered available to participate in 

the Federal market for a class of 

products, a small business manufacturer 

must have submitted a proposal for a 

contract solicitation or been awarded a 

contract to supply the class of products 

within the last 24 months. 

In accordance with the SBA’s 

regulations at 13 CFR 121.1204(a)(7), 

SBA will periodically review existing 

class waivers to the NMR to determine 

whether small business manufacturers 

or processors have become available to 

participate in the Federal market. Upon 

receipt of information that such a small 

business manufacturer or processor 

exists, the SBA will announce its intent 

to terminate the NMR waiver for a class 

of products. 13 CFR 121.1204(a)(7)(ii). 

Unless public comment reveals no small 

business exists for the class of products 

in question, SBA will publish a Final 

Notice of Termination in the Federal 

Register. 

On October 31, 2007, the SBA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of intent to waiver the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for Irradiation 

Apparatus Manufacturing (X-Ray 

Equipment and Supplies). The 

comments submitted in response failed 

to establish the existence of a small 

business manufacturer of these 

products. As such, on December 26, 

2007, after the comment and notice 

period passed, SBA issued a class 

waiver for those products effective 

January 10, 2008. That notice can be 

found at 77 FR 73057. 

On April 20, 2020, SBA received a 

request to terminate the previously 

issued waiver. The requester provided 

information that established the 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 31 / Tuesday, February 15, 2022 / Notices 8631 

existence of a small business 

manufacturer of the identified products. 

Thus, SBA is proposing to terminate the 

class waiver for irradiation apparatus 

manufacturing, computerized axial 

tomography (CT/CAT) scanners 

manufacturing; CT/CAT (computerized 

axial tomography) scanners 

manufacturing; fluoroscopes 

manufacturing; fluoroscopic X-ray 

apparatus and tubes manufacturing; 

generators, X-ray, manufacturing; 

irradiation equipment manufacturing; 

X-ray generators manufacturing; and Xray irradiation equipment 

manufacturing under NAICS code 

334517 and PSC 6525. The public is 

invited to comment or provide source 

information on the proposed 

termination of the NMR waiver for these 

products. 

More information on the NMR and 

class waivers can be found at 

Nonmanufacturer rule (sba.gov).

Federal Aviation Administration 

Docket No. FAA–2022–0201] 

Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Requests for Comments; 

Clearance of Renewed Approval of 

Information Collection: Certification: 

Pilots and Flight Instructors 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA 

invites public comments about our 

intention to request Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval to renew an information 

collection. FAA regulations prescribe 

certification standards for pilots, flight 

instructors, and ground instructors. The 

information collected is used to 

determine compliance with applicant 

eligibility. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted by April 18, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA 

at the following address: Dwayne C. 

Morris, Federal Aviation 

Administration, 800 Independence Ave. 

SW, Washington, DC 20591; email: 

chris.morris@faa.gov. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including (a) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for FAA’s 

performance; (b) the accuracy of the 

estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to 

enhance the quality, utility and clarity 

of the information collection; and (d) 

ways that the burden could be 

minimized without reducing the quality 

of the collected information. The agency 

will summarize and/or include your 

comments in the request for OMB’s 

clearance of this information collection. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean 

Hardy by email at: jean.hardy@faa.gov. 

phone: 207–289–7287. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 2120–0021. 

Title: Certification: Pilots and Flight 

Instructors. 

Form Numbers: 8710–1, 8710–13. 

Type of Review: This is a renewal of 

an existing information collection. 

Background: Persons applying for an 

airman certificate under part 61 are 

mandated to report information using 

the Airman certificate and/or Rating 

Application form and the required 

records, logbooks and statements to the 

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) 

Flight Standards District Offices or its 

representatives on occasion. This 

information is used to determine 

qualifications of the applicant for 

issuance of a pilot or instructor 

certificate, or rating or authorization. 

The FAA estimates that there are 

approximately 825,000 active 

certificated pilot airmen. This includes 

student, private, commercial, airline 

transport pilot certificate holders, as 

well as ground and flight instructors. 

Approximately 25% of these pilots are 

providing data on an annual basis. 

Instructor certificates must be renewed 

every 24 months to remain effective. If 

the information collection were not 

conducted, the FAA would be unable to 

issue the appropriate certificates and 

ratings. Persons applying for a remote 

pilot certificate with a small UAS rating 

under part 107, are mandated to report 

information using the FAA Form 8710– 

13, Remote Pilot Certificate and/or 

Rating Application. For applicants who 

do not hold a pilot certificate under part 

61, the Remote Pilot Certificate and/or 

Rating Application is submitted along 

with a documentation demonstrating 

that the applicant passed an 

aeronautical knowledge test. For 

applicants who hold a pilot certificate 

under part 61 and meet the flight review 

requirements of § 61.56, the Remote 

Pilot Certificate and/or Rating 

Application is submitted with evidence 

of completion of the training program is 

estimated to be approximately 25 

percent of the population of active 

certificated pilots and instructors. Given 

a population of 825,000, the result is 

approximately 206,250 respondents 

providing data on an annual basis. The 

total number of applicants for a remote 

pilot certificate with a small UAS rating 

is estimated to be 39,229 annually. 

Frequency: As needed. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: For the hour burdens 

resulting from the application 

requirements of the collection of 

information other than remote pilots 

with small UAS ratings, the FAA 

estimates that forms are submitted for 

these certificates and ratings at an 

average preparation time of 15 minutes 

(0.25 hrs) each. The average time 

estimate of 0.25 hours assumes that 

many individual applicants will submit 

an 8710–1 form more than once for 

various reasons, and that most of the 

information provided on the form likely 

will not have changed. For Part 107 we 

estimate that an average of 39,229 forms 

are submitted annually that require an 

average preparation time of 0.25 hours 

to complete. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: The 

total number of annual responses for the 

airman certification program is 

estimated to be 1,171,0405. The FAA 

estimates the total reporting burden 

hours to be 43,157 hours. The FAA 

estimates the total recordkeeping 

burden hours to be 282,329 hours. The 

FAA estimates the burden for the 

collection of information to be 325,486 

hours annually.

2022.
