Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 177 / Wednesday, September 14, 2005 / Proposed Rules 54323 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify that the proposed regulation: 

1. Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866; 

2. Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under the 

DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and 

3. Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this proposed AD. See the ADDRESSES

section for a location to examine the 

regulatory evaluation.

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part

2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive (AD):

injury to crewmembers, and subsequent 

damage to the airplane caused by the rapid 

opening of the door.

Technical and Clarifying Amendments 

to Rules for Exempt Markets,

Markets, and Procedural Changes for 

Derivatives Clearing Organization 

Registration Applications 

AGENCY: Commodity Futures Trading 

Commission. 

ACTION: Reopening of comment period. 

SUMMARY: On July 11, 2005, the 

Commission published in the Federal 

Register a request for comments on 

proposed Technical and Clarifying 

Amendments to rules for Exempt 

Markets, Derivatives Transaction 

Execution Facilities and Designated 

Contract Markets, and Procedural 

Changes for Derivatives Clearing 

Organization Registration Applications. 

The proposed amendments are intended 

to: Clarify and codify acceptable 

54324 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 177 / Wednesday, September 14, 2005 / Proposed Rules 

practices under the Commission’s rules 

for trading facilities, implemented 

pursuant to the Commodity Futures 

Modernization Act of 2000, based on the 

Commission’s experience in applying 

those rules since they were originally 

adopted in 2001; and revise the 

application and review process for 

designation as a derivatives clearing 

organization. The original comment 

period closed on September 9, 2005. 

By letter dated September 6, 2005, the 

New York Mercantile Exchange 

(‘‘NYMEX’’) requested that the comment 

period be extended 15 days, to 

September 26, 2005. NYMEX requested 

the additional time because, due to 

current extreme energy market 

conditions, the Exchange staff will be 

unable to properly circulate its response 

and obtain the necessary committee 

approvals and other review necessary to 

file a comment prior to the original 

close of the comment period on 

September 9, 2005. 

In response to this request, and in 

order to ensure that an adequate 

opportunity is provided for the 

submission of meaningful comments, 

the Commission will reopen and extend 

the comment period on the proposed 

rules. 

DATES: Responses must be received by 

September 26, 2005.

40 CFR Part 52 

[R08–OAR–2005–UT–0003; FRL–7961–6] 

Approval and Promulgation of Air 

Quality Implementation Plans; State of 

Utah; Ogden City Revised Carbon 

Monoxide Maintenance Plan and 

Approval of Related Revisions 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to take 

direct final action approving State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions 

submitted by the State of Utah. On 

November 29, 2004, the Governor of 

Utah submitted revisions to Utah’s Rule 

R307–110–12, ‘‘Section IX, Control 

Measures for Area and Point Sources, 

Part C, Carbon Monoxide,’’ which 

incorporates a revised maintenance plan 

for the Ogden carbon monoxide (CO) 

maintenance area for the CO National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard 

(NAAQS). The revised maintenance 

plan contains revised transportation 

conformity budgets for the years 2005 

and 2021. In addition, the Governor 

submitted revisions to Utah’s Rule 

R307–110–35, ‘‘Section X, Vehicle 

Inspection and Maintenance Program, 

Part E, Weber County,’’ which 

incorporates a revised vehicle 

inspection and maintenance program for 

Weber County. In this action, EPA is 

approving the Ogden City CO revised 

maintenance plan, the revised 

transportation conformity budgets, the 

revised vehicle inspection and 

maintenance program for Weber County, 

and the revisions to rules R307–110–12 

and R307–110–35. This action is being 

taken under section 110 of the Clean Air 

Act. 

In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’

section of this Federal Register, EPA is 

approving the State’s SIP revisions as a 

direct final rule without prior proposal 

because the Agency views this as a 

noncontroversial SIP revision and 

anticipates no adverse comments. A 

detailed rationale for the approval is set
