provides that balances maintained by or 

on behalf of certain institutions in an 

account at a Reserve Bank may receive 

earnings to be paid by the Reserve Bank 

at least once each quarter, at a rate or 

rates not to exceed the general level of 

short-term interest rates.3 Institutions 

that are eligible to receive earnings on 

their balances held at Reserve Banks 

(‘‘eligible institutions’’) include 

depository institutions and certain other 

institutions.4 Section 19 also provides 

that the Board may prescribe regulations 

concerning the payment of earnings on 

balances at a Reserve Bank.5 Prior to 

these amendments, Regulation D 

established IORB at 0.90 percent.6

II. Amendment to IORB 

The Board is amending § 204.10(b)(1) 

of Regulation D to establish IORB at 1.65 

percent. The amendment represents a 

0.75 percentage point increase in IORB. 

This decision was announced on June 

15, 2022, with an effective date of June 

16, 2022, in the Federal Reserve 

Implementation Note that accompanied 

the FOMC’s statement on June 15, 2022. 

The FOMC statement stated that the 

Committee decided to raise the target 

range for the federal funds rate to 11⁄2 to 

13⁄4 percent]. 

A Federal Reserve Implementation 

note stated: 

The Board of Governors of the Federal 

Reserve System voted unanimously to raise 

the interest rate paid on reserve balances to 

1.65 percent, effective June 16, 2022. 

As a result, the Board is amending 

§ 204.10(b)(1) of Regulation D to 

establish IORB at 1.65 percent. 

III. Administrative Procedure Act 

In general, the Administrative 

Procedure Act (‘‘APA’’) 7 imposes three 

principal requirements when an agency 

promulgates legislative rules (rules 

made pursuant to Congressionallydelegated authority): (1) publication 

with adequate notice of a proposed rule; 

(2) followed by a meaningful 

opportunity for the public to comment 

on the rule’s content; and (3) 

publication of the final rule not less 

than 30 days before its effective date. 

The APA provides that notice and 

comment procedures do not apply if the 

agency for good cause finds them to be 

‘‘unnecessary, impracticable, or contrary 

to the public interest.’’ 8 Section 553(d) 

of the APA also provides that 

publication at least 30 days prior to a 

rule’s effective date is not required for 

(1) a substantive rule which grants or 

recognizes an exemption or relieves a 

restriction; (2) interpretive rules and 

statements of policy; or (3) a rule for 

which the agency finds good cause for 

shortened notice and publishes its 

reasoning with the rule.9

The Board has determined that good 

cause exists for finding that the notice, 

public comment, and delayed effective 

date provisions of the APA are 

unnecessary, impracticable, or contrary 

to the public interest with respect to 

these final amendments to Regulation D. 

The rate change for IORB that is 

reflected in the final amendment to 

Regulation D was made with a view 

towards accommodating commerce and 

business and with regard to their 

bearing upon the general credit situation 

of the country. Notice and public 

comment would prevent the Board’s 

action from being effective as promptly 

as necessary in the public interest and 

would not otherwise serve any useful 

purpose. Notice, public comment, and a 

delayed effective date would create 

uncertainty about the finality and 

effectiveness of the Board’s action and 

undermine the effectiveness of that 

action. Accordingly, the Board has 

determined that good cause exists to 

dispense with the notice, public 

comment, and delayed effective date 

procedures of the APA with respect to 

this final amendment to Regulation D. 

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Analysis 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act 

(‘‘RFA’’) does not apply to a rulemaking 

where a general notice of proposed 

rulemaking is not required.10 As noted 

previously, the Board has determined 

that it is unnecessary and contrary to 

the public interest to publish a general 

notice of proposed rulemaking for this 

final rule. Accordingly, the RFA’s 

requirements relating to an initial and 

final regulatory flexibility analysis do 

not apply. 

V. Paperwork Reduction Act 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (‘‘PRA’’) of 1995,11 the 

Board reviewed the final rule under the 

authority delegated to the Board by the 

Office of Management and Budget. The 

final rule contains no requirements 

subject to the PRA.

preamble, the Board amends 12 CFR 

part 204 as follows: 

PART 204—RESERVE 

REQUIREMENTS OF DEPOSITORY 

INSTITUTIONS (REGULATION D) 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 204 

continues to read as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On March 31, 2022, and April 4, 2022, 

two Bombardier Inc. BD–700–2A12 

airplanes (marketed as Global 7500 

airplanes), powered by GE Passport 

P20–19BB1A and GE Passport P20– 

18BB1A model turbofan engines, 

respectively, experienced an engine fire 

during flight. The engine fire on the GE 

Passport P20–19BB1A resulted in a 

commanded in-flight shutdown (IFSD) 

and air turnback (ATB). The engine fire 

on the GE Passport P20–18BB1A 

resulted in an ATB. A subsequent 

investigation by the manufacturer found 

evidence of fuel leakage on the lower 

outboard core panel, aft end of the bifi 

plate, ignition lead, and fuel manifold 

B-nut connections. The investigation 

also found that fuel nozzle to fuel 

manifold B-nut connections were undertorqued on both event engines and the 

fuel leak at the fuel nozzle B-nut 

connections likely caused the engine 

fires. As a result, the manufacturer 

published GE Service Bulletin (SB) 

PASSPORT20–A–72–00–0141–00A– 

930A–D, Issue No 000, dated April 12, 

2022, and GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72– 

00–0142–00A–930A–D, Issue No 001, 

dated May 11, 2022. The service 

information specifies procedures for the 

performance of a visual inspection of 

the fuel nozzle zone in the core 

compartment for indications of fuel 

leakage, undetected fire, or heat distress, 

re-torque of the coupling nuts in the 

core compartment, a ground power 

assurance check, and a borescope 

inspection. This condition, if not 

addressed, could result in engine fire, 

failure of the engine, in-flight shutdown, 

and loss of the airplane. The FAA is 

issuing this AD to address the unsafe 

condition on these products. 

FAA’s Determination 

The FAA is issuing this AD because 

the agency has determined the unsafe 

condition described previously is likely 

to exist or develop in other products of 

the same type design. 

Related Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

The FAA reviewed GE SB 

PASSPORT20–A–72–00–0142–00A– 

930A–D, Issue No 001, dated May 11, 

2022 (GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00– 

0142). GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00– 

0142 specifies procedures for the 

performance of a visual inspection, a retorque of the coupling nuts in the core 

compartment, a ground power assurance 

check, and a borescope inspection. This 

service information is reasonably 

available because the interested parties 

have access to it through their normal 

course of business or by the means 

identified in ADDRESSES. 

Other Related Service Information 

The FAA reviewed GE SB 

PASSPORT20–A–72–00–0141–00A– 

930A–D, Issue No 000, dated April 12, 

2022 (GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00– 

0141). GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00– 

0141 specifies procedures for the 

performance of a borescope inspection 

of the core compartment for indications 

of fuel leak or fire. 

AD Requirements 

This AD requires a visual inspection 

of the core compartment, re-torque of 

the core compartment coupling nuts, a 

ground power assurance check, and a 

borescope inspection. Depending on the 

results of the inspections, this AD 

requires operators to perform applicable 

maintenance in accordance with their 

FAA-approved instructions for 

continued airworthiness. 

Differences Between the AD and the 

Service Information 

GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00–0142– 

00A–930A–D specifies procedures for 

reporting information to the 

manufacturer. This AD does not require 

operators to report information to the 

manufacturer. 

GE SB PASSPORT20–A–72–00–0142– 

00A–930A–D specifies procedures for 

contacting a GE field service engineer or 

24/7 Business Aviation Support. This 

AD does not require operators to contact 

a GE field service engineer or 24/7 

Business Aviation Support. Instead, this 

AD requires following an FAA-approved 

method to return the engine to service. 

Interim Action 

The FAA considers this AD to be an 

interim action. This unsafe condition is 

still under investigation by the 

manufacturer and, depending on the 

results of that investigation, the FAA 

may consider further rulemaking action. 

Justification for Immediate Adoption 

and Determination of the Effective Date 

Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 

U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies 

to dispense with notice and comment 

procedures for rules when the agency, 

for ‘‘good cause,’’ finds that those 

procedures are ‘‘impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest.’’ Under this section, an agency, 

upon finding good cause, may issue a 

final rule without providing notice and 

seeking comment prior to issuance. 

Further, section 553(d) of the APA 

authorizes agencies to make rules 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 124 / Wednesday, June 29, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 38649 

effective in less than thirty days, upon 

a finding of good cause. 

An unsafe condition exists that 

requires the immediate adoption of this 

AD without providing an opportunity 

for public comments prior to adoption. 

The FAA has found that the risk to the 

flying public justifies foregoing notice 

and comment prior to adoption of this 

rule. The FAA considers fuel leakage 

and engine fire to be an urgent safety 

issue. The visual inspection of the core 

compartment is necessary to prevent 

engine fire, IFSD, damage to the 

airplane, failure of the engine, and loss 

of control of the airplane. All GE 

Passport 20–17BB1A, Passport 20– 

18BB1A, and Passport 20–19BB1A 

model turbofan engines are equipped 

with fuel nozzle to fuel manifold 

coupling nut connections which were 

determined by the manufacturer to have 

the potential for under-torqueing, 

following two incidents of engine fire 

on airplanes wherein a fuel leak at the 

fuel nozzle coupling nut connection was 

likely the cause of the fire. Affected 

engines must undergo a visual 

inspection before exceeding 30, 50, or 

75 flight cycles (FCs) after the effective 

date of this AD, depending on the 

engine’s cycles since new (CSN). Retorque of the core compartment 

coupling nuts is required within 30 or 

100 FCs after the effective date of the 

AD, depending on the engine serial 

number. Current fleet utilization data 

estimates the flight cycles will be 

accumulated between 30 and 90 days 

after the effective date of this AD. For 

affected engines with indications of fuel 

leakage, undetected fire, or heat distress 

following a visual inspection of the core 

compartment, this AD requires 

operators to perform applicable 

maintenance in accordance with their 

FAA-approved instructions for 

continued airworthiness. Accordingly, 

notice and opportunity for prior public 

comment are impracticable and contrary 

to the public interest pursuant to 5 

U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). 

In addition, the FAA finds that good 

cause exists pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d) 

for making this amendment effective in 

less than 30 days, for the same reasons 

the FAA found good cause to forego 

notice and comment. 

Comments Invited 

The FAA invites you to send any 

written data, views, or arguments about 

this final rule. Send your comments to 

an address listed under ADDRESSES. 

Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2022–0691 

and Project Identifier AD–2022–00601– 

E’’ at the beginning of your comments. 

The most helpful comments reference a 

specific portion of the final rule, explain 

the reason for any recommended 

change, and include supporting data. 

The FAA will consider all comments 

received by the closing date and may 

amend this final rule because of those 

comments. 

Except for Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) as described in the 

following paragraph, and other 

information as described in 14 CFR 

11.35, the FAA will post all comments 

received, without change, to https://

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. The 

agency will also post a report 

summarizing each substantive verbal 

contact received about this final rule. 

Confidential Business Information 

CBI is commercial or financial 

information that is both customarily and 

actually treated as private by its owner. 

Under the Freedom of Information Act 

(FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt 

from public disclosure. If your 

comments responsive to this AD contain 

commercial or financial information 

that is customarily treated as private, 

that you actually treat as private, and 

that is relevant or responsive to this AD, 

it is important that you clearly designate 

the submitted comments as CBI. Please 

mark each page of your submission 

containing CBI as ‘‘PROPIN.’’ The FAA 

will treat such marked submissions as 

confidential under the FOIA, and they 

will not be placed in the public docket 

of this AD. Submissions containing CBI 

should be sent to Scott Stevenson, 

Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, 

FAA, 1200 District Avenue, Burlington, 

MA 01803. Any commentary that the 

FAA receives which is not specifically 

designated as CBI will be placed in the 

public docket for this rulemaking. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (RFA) do not apply when 

an agency finds good cause pursuant to 

5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt a rule without 

prior notice and comment. Because the 

FAA has determined that it has good 

cause to adopt this rule without prior 

notice and comment, RFA analysis is 

not required. 

Costs of Compliance 

The FAA estimates that this AD 

affects 42 engines installed on airplanes 

of U.S. registry. 

The FAA estimates the following 

costs to comply with this AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Visual inspection of core compartment .......... 2 work-hours × $85 per hour = $170 ............. $0 $170 $7,140 

Re-torque core compartment coupling nuts ... 31 work-hours × $85 per hour = $2,635 ........ 0 2,635 110,670 

Ground power assurance check and 

borescope inspection.

4 work-hours × $85 per hour = $340 ............. 0 340 14,280 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

The FAA is issuing this rulemaking 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 

44701: General requirements. Under 

that section, Congress charges the FAA 

with promoting safe flight of civil 

aircraft in air commerce by prescribing 

regulations for practices, methods, and 

procedures the Administrator finds 

necessary for safety in air commerce. 

This regulation is within the scope of 

that authority because it addresses an 

unsafe condition that is likely to exist or 

develop on products identified in this 

rulemaking action. 

Regulatory Findings 

This AD will not have federalism 

implications under Executive Order 

13132. This AD will not have a 

substantial direct effect on the States, on 

the relationship between the national 

government and the States, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify that this AD: 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
38650 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 124 / Wednesday, June 29, 2022 / Rules and Regulations
