Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 47 / Tuesday, March 11, 1997 / Proposed Rules 11129

considered before taking action on the

proposed rule. The proposal contained

in this notice may be changed in light

of comments received. All comments

submitted will be available for

examination in the Operations Branch,

Air Traffic Division, at 15000 Aviation

Boulevard, Lawndale, California 90261,

both before and after the closing date for

comments. A report summarizing each

substantive public contract with FAA

personnel concerned with this

rulemaking will be filed in the docket.

Availability of NPRM

Any person may obtain a copy of this

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)

by submitting a request to the Federal

Aviation Administration, Operations

Branch, P.O. Box 92007, Worldway

Postal Center, Los Angeles, California

90009. Communications must identify

the notice number of the NPRM. Persons

interested in being placed on a mailing

list for future NPRM’s should also

request a copy of Advisory Circular No.

11–2A, which describes the application

procedures.

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulation (14 CFR part 71) to

establish a Class E airspace area to

Truckee, CA. The establishment of a

GPS SIAP at Truckee-Tahoe Airport has

made this proposal necessary. The

intended effect of this proposal is to

provide adequate Class E airspace for

aircraft executing the GPSS RWY 19

SIAP and other Instrument Flight Rules

(IFR) operations at Truckee-Tahoe

Airport, Truckee, CA. Class E airspace

designations for airspace areas

extending upward from 700 feet or more

above the surface of the earth are

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA

Order 7400.9D dated September 4, 1996,

and effective September 16, 1996, which

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The Class E airspace designation

listed in this document would be

published subsequently in this 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.

Therefore, this proposed regulation—(1)

is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT

Regulatory Policies and Procedure (44

FR 10034; 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

would not have a significant economic

impact on a substantial number of small

entities under the criteria of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act.

The Proposed Amendment

In consideration of the foregoing, the

Federal Aviation Administration

proposes to amend 14 CFR part 71 as

follows:

PART 71—[AMENDED]

1. The authority citation for 14 CFR

part 71 continues to read as follows:

1963 Comp., p. 389; 14 CFR 11.69.

§ 71.1 [Amended]

2. The incorporation by reference in

14 CFR 71.1 of the Federal Aviation

Administration Order 7400.9D, Airspace

Designations and Reporting Points,

dated September 4, 1996, and effective

September 16, 1996, is amended as

Food Labeling: Health Claims;

Availability of FDA Report of Effects of

Food Label Health Claim Statements;

Extension of Comment Period

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration,

HHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule; extension of

comment period.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) is extending to

April 24, 1997, the comment period for

a proposal to amend its regulations on

nutrient content claims and health

claims to provide additional flexibility

in the use of these claims on food

products, which published in the

Federal Register of December 21, 1995

(66206). In the Federal Register of

January 24, 1997 (3635), the comment

period for this proposal was reopened to

provide interested persons an

opportunity to review three studies that

are relevant to issues under

consideration in this rulemaking. The

agency is taking this action in response

to requests for an extension to allow

interested persons additional time to

review these studies and to submit

comments.

DATES: Written comments by April 24,

1997.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments

to the Dockets Management Branch

(HFA–305), Food and Drug

Administration, 12420 Parklawn Dr.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the

Federal Register of January 24, 1997,

FDA announced the availability of a

report entitled ‘‘Consumer Impacts of

Health Claims: An Experimental Study’’

(the FDA Study). FDA advised that the

FDA Study bore directly on the issues

involving health claims that were raised

in a rulemaking that FDA had instituted

on December 21, 1995, with a proposal

entitled ‘‘Food Labeling: Nutrient

Content Claims, General Principles;

Health Claims, General Requirements

and Other Specific Requirements for

Individual Health Claims’’ (the nutrient

content/health claim proceeding) (60 FR

66206). FDA also announced the

availability of two other studies that it
11130 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 47 / Tuesday, March 11, 1997 / Proposed Rules

had received in a comment to a separate

rulemaking. Because it might consider

the results of these three studies in

developing a final rule in the nutrient

content/health claim proceeding, FDA

also announced that it was reopening

the comment period for that rulemaking

to provide an opportunity for interested

persons to comment on the studies.

FDA has received two requests for an

extension of the comment period. The

requests were from a trade association,

for an extension of 30 days, and from a

consumer group, for an extension of 45

days. The request from the consumer

group indicated a need to seek outside

experts to review and analyze the

studies and, if necessary, to conduct

survey research. The other, from the

trade association whose petition led to

the nutrient content/health claim

proceeding, noted that the author of the

FDA Study had remarked in the study’s

Executive Summary about the

complexity of the study findings and

said that it was ‘‘equally complex for

interested parties to analyze the

research and to comment on the

applicability of the findings to the

proposed rule.’’

After careful consideration, FDA has

decided that some additional time is

necessary for interested persons to

review the results of the FDA Study and

other studies and to submit meaningful

comments on them. Therefore, FDA is

extending the comment period for the

proposal for an additional 45 days, until

April 24, 1997.

Interested persons may, on or before

April 24, 1997, submit to the Dockets

Management Branch (address above)

written comments regarding the studies

that were added to this docket on

January 24, 1997. Two copies of any

comments are to be submitted, except

that individuals may submit one copy.

Comments are to be identified with the

docket number found in brackets in the

heading of this document. Received

comments may be seen in the office

above between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.,

Monday through Friday.

Dated: March 6, 1997.
