[Docket No. 28863; Amdt. No. 1789]

RIN 2120–AA65

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedures; Miscellaneous

Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA); DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment establishes,

amends, suspends, or revokes Standard

Instrument Approach Procedures

(SIAPs) for operations at certain

airports. These regulatory actions are

needed because of the adoption of new

or revised criteria, or because of changes

occurring in the National Airspace

System, such as the commissioning of

new navigational facilities, addition of

new obstacles, or changes in air traffic

requirements. These changes are

designed to provide safe and efficient
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 68 / Wednesday, April 9, 1997 / Rules and Regulations 17067

use of the navigable airspace and to

promote safe flight operations under

instrument flight rules at the affected

airports.

DATES: An effective date for each SIAP

is specified in the amendatory

provisions.

Incorporation by reference—approved

by the Director of the Federal Register

on December 31, 1980, and reapproved

as of January 1, 1982.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters

incorporated by reference in the

amendment is as follows:

For Examination—1. FAA Rules

Docket, FAA Headquarters Building,

800 Independence Avenue SW.,

Washington, DC 20591;

2. The FAA Regional Office of the

region in which the affected airport is

located; or

3. The Flight Inspection Area Office

which originated the SIAP.

For Purchase—Individual SIAP

copies may be obtained from:

1. FAA Public Inquiry Center (APA–

200), FAA Headquarters Building, 800

Independence Avenue SW.,

Washington, DC 20591; or

2. The FAA Regional Office of the

region in which the affected airport is

located.

By Subscription—Copies of all SIAPs,

mailed once every 2 weeks, are for sale

by the Superintendent of Documents,

U.S. Government Printing Office,

Washington, DC 20402.

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 Aviations 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 of 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.

COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING

COMMISSION

17 CFR Part 145

Commission Records and Information

AGENCY: Commodity Futures Trading

Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Commodity Futures

Trading Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or

‘‘CFTC’’) is amending its rules relating

to Commission records and information.

The modifications implement the

portions of the Electronic Freedom of

Information Act Amendments of 1996

which become effective March 31, 1997.

As these modifications involve solely

agency procedure and practice, public

comment is not being sought.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 31, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Jean A. Webb, Secretary of

the Commission, Commodity Futures

Trading Commission, Three Lafayette

Centre, 1155 21st Street, NW,

Washington, DC 20581; or by electronic

mail to secretary@cftc.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Merry Lymn, Assistant General Counsel,

Office of the General Counsel,

Commodity Futures Trading

Commission, Three Lafayette Centre,

1155 21st Street, NW, Washington, DC

20581. Telephone: (202) 418–5120.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background—Need for Revisions

The Electronic Freedom of

Information Act Amendments of 1996,

Public Law 104–231, 110 Stat. 3048

(1996) (‘‘EFOIA’’), amended the

Freedom of Information Act (‘‘FOIA’’) (5

U.S.C. 552) to facilitate the

dissemination of agency records created

and retained in electronic formats and

to assist requesters in obtaining

information in the form or format most

useful to them. EFOIA provides dates by

which certain provisions must be

implemented. This notice sets forth the

Commission’s modifications of its

regulations found at 17 CFR Part 145 to

implement those EFOIA provisions with

a March 31, 1997 effective date. EFOIA

provisions with a later effective date

will be treated subsequently.

A. Definitions

1. EFOIA Definition

Section 3 of EFOIA amends FOIA by

modifying its definition of ‘‘record.’’

Consequently, the Commission is

revising its definition of ‘‘record’’ found

at 17 CFR 145.0 to conform to EFOIA

usage. Furthermore, because the current

definition is inconsistent with United

States Dep’t of Justice v. Tax Analysts,

492 U.S. 136, 144–145, 149–154 (1989)

(court opinions in agency files held to

be agency records), and the

Commission’s subsequent practice, the

definition of ‘‘record’’ is also revised by

deleting the sentence ‘‘Further, the term

‘records,’ as used in this Part, does not

include materials such as Federal

Register notices or court filings that are

available from public sources other than

the Commission.’’

2. Alphabetical Order

The definitional section of Part 145 is

not in alphabetical order. The

Commission believes that re-ordering

the definitions alphabetically will make

it easier for the user and will facilitate

adding or deleting definitions in the

future. Consequently, the new

definitional section is alphabetized.

Additionally, some of the existing

definitions are redrafted to conform to

the revised format.

B. Availability of Records

Under Section 5 of EFOIA, the

Commission is required to make records

available in any form or format

requested if the Commission can readily

reproduce them in that form or format.

Accordingly, the Commission is

amending § 145.7 to indicate that

requesters should specify the form or

format (including electronic formats) in

which they prefer to receive a response.

When requesters do not specify the form

or format for a response, the

Commission will respond in the form or

format in which the document is most

accessible to the Commission.
