14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 29241; Amdt. No. 1871]

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 Natural 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

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

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 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 SIAPs

as contained in the transmittal. Some

SIAP amendments may have been

previously issued by the FAA in a

National Flight Data Center (NFDC)

Notice of 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.

COMMISSION

19 CFR Parts 201 and 207

Rules of Practice and Procedure

AGENCY: United States International

Trade Commission.

ACTION: Final rulemaking.

SUMMARY: The United States

International Trade Commission (the

Commission) hereby amends its Rules of

Practice and Procedure concerning

antidumping and countervailing duty

investigations and reviews in 19 CFR

parts 201 and 207. The amendments

establish procedures for five-year

reviews of antidumping and

countervailing duty orders and

suspension agreements that the

Commission will conduct pursuant to

the provisions of section 751(c) of the

Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act).

DATES: In accordance with the 30-day

advance publication requirement

imposed by 5 U.S.C. 553(d), the

effective date of these rules is July 6,

1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Marc A. Bernstein, Office of General

Counsel, U.S. International Trade

Commission (telephone: 202–205–3087,

e-mail: mbernstein@usitc.gov), or Vera

A. Libeau, Office of Investigations, U.S.

International Trade Commission

(telephone 202–205–3176, e-mail:

vlibeau@usitc.gov). Hearing-impaired

individuals are advised that information

on this matter can be obtained by

contacting the Commission’s TDD

terminal on 202–205–1810.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On October 23, 1997, the Commission

published a Notice of Proposed

Rulemaking (NOPR) in the Federal

Register. 62 F.R. 55185 (Oct. 23, 1997).

In the NOPR, the Commission proposed

procedures for five-year reviews it will

conduct pursuant to section 751(c) of

the Act. Some of the proposed

procedures were reflected in proposed

amendments to the Commission’s Rules

of Practice and Procedure. The

Commission additionally described in

the preamble and annexes to the NOPR

other proposed procedures which were

not incorporated into the proposed

regulations.

The Commission invited public

comment on its proposed regulations,

the procedures discussed in the NOPR

preamble and annexes, and any other

issues pertaining to five-year reviews.

The Commission received 25 sets of

first-round comments from 23 different

submitters, and 15 sets of rebuttal

comments from 12 different submitters.

Those entities that submitted written

comments, as well as the short-form

designations that will be used to refer to

them, are listed in Annex C to this

notice. Additionally, the Commission

conducted a public hearing on February

26, 1998, concerning five-year reviews

at which it heard testimony from

numerous interested persons.

The Commission carefully considered

all comments that it received. The

Commission’s response to those

comments that relate to the subjects

addressed in this rulemaking notice is

provided below in the section-bysection analysis of the rulemaking

amendments. The Commission

appreciates the time and effort the

commenters and hearing participants

took to present their views, and believes

that the comments and hearing

testimony have contributed to improved

regulations.

The Commission has determined that

these regulations do not meet the

criteria described in section 3(f) of the

Executive Order 12866 (58 F.R. 51735,

Oct. 4, 1993) (EO) and thus do not

constitute a significant regulatory action

for purposes of the EO. The Regulatory

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 note) is

inapplicable to this rulemaking, because

it is not one for which a NOPR is

required under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) or any

other statute. Although the Commission

published a NOPR, these regulations are

‘‘agency rules of procedure and

practice,’’ and thus are exempt from the

notice requirement imposed by 5 U.S.C.

553(b).

The sample notice of institution

reproduced at Annex A to this notice

constitutes an information collection

request subject to the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq. After consultation with the

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB), the Commission has concluded

that the collection of information that

will be undertaken pursuant to the

notice of institution is encompassed

within a clearance OMB has given the

Commission under the Paperwork

Reduction Act to collect information for

antidumping and countervailing duty

investigations and reviews, including

those undertaken pursuant to section

751 of the Act. This clearance has been

assigned OMB Control Number 3117–

0016.

Pursuant to the Contract with

America Advancement Act of 1996

(Pub. L. 104–121), the Commission is

submitting a report to the General

Accounting Office and to each House of

Congress describing these regulations

and attaching their text.

Overview of the Amendments to the

Regulations

The final regulations and procedures

for five-year reviews contain four

principal changes from those proposed

in the NOPR. These changes are

summarized here. A comprehensive

explanation of the changes is provided

in the section-by-section analysis below.

First, responses to the notice of

institution will be due 50 days after its

publication in the Federal Register.

Thus, responses to the Commission’s

notice need not be filed until 30 days

after the date on which the Department

of Commerce (Commerce) will inform

the Commission if no domestic

interested party has filed a Notice of

Intent to Participate in the five-year

review.

Second, the notice of institution has

been revised significantly. In particular,

the Commission has reduced the

amount of empirical data that interested

parties will be requested to submit in

their responses. Additionally, interested

parties will make a single submission to

the Secretary.

Third, the Commission has decided

not to adopt numerical guidelines

concerning the adequacy, in the

aggregate, of interested party responses

to the notice of institution. The

Commission will make adequacy rulings

on a case-by-case basis taking several

considerations into account.

Fourth, the Commission has decided

not to adopt a regulation precluding

interested parties from making data

collection requests after submission of

the comments on the draft

questionnaires. Nevertheless, the

regulation the Commission has

promulgated states that it will entertain

such late requests for data collection

only in compelling circumstances.

Section-by-Section Analysis of the

Regulations

Section 201.11

The Commission has amended section

201.11 by adding sections 201.11(b)(4)

and (b)(5), which govern the filing of

entries of appearance in five-year

reviews. Section 201.11(b)(4), which

states that entries of appearance are due

21 days after publication of the notice

of institution, is identical to the

provision proposed in the NOPR.

Stewart requested that the 21-day period
