approximately 19 work hours per engine 

to perform the proposed actions, and 

that the average labor rate is $65 per 

work hour. Required parts would cost 

approximately $6,644 per engine. Based 

on these figures, we estimate the total 

cost of the proposed AD to U.S. 

operators to be $1,087,302. 

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. 

We are 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 

We have determined that this 

proposed AD would not have federalism 

implications under Executive Order 

13132. This proposed AD would 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 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. Would 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.

33 CFR Part 207 

RIN 0710–AA63 

Navigation Regulations 

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

and request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The Corps is proposing to 

amend the regulations for lockage 

operations at Bonneville Lock and Dam 

and amend the regulations which 

establish the restricted areas at Little 

Goose Lock and Dam. The Corps is 

making corrections and adjustments to 

the lockage control, signals, and 

permissible dimensions of vessels for 

Bonneville Lock and Dam. These 

changes correct language for the new 

replacement lock. For the Little Goose 

Lock and Dam the Corps is making 

adjustments in the upstream channel 

restricted area boundary to provide a 

recreational craft corridor along the 

north shoreline. This will provide better 

boat ramp access in support of the small 

craft portage route and reduce 

interference between fisherman and the 

boat ramp. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before December 8, 2005. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments should 

be sent to the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, ATTN: CECW–NWD, 441 G 

Street NW., Washington, DC 20314–

1000. Comments may also be faxed to 

(202) 761–5096 or e-mail to: 

Ken.C.Hall@usace.army.mil. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Ken Hall, Program Manager, CECWNWD at (202) 761–4717, or Brian 

Schmidtke, (503) 808–4333 for 

Bonneville Lock and Dam or Ms. Ann 

Glassley at (509) 527–7115 for Little 

Goose Lock and Dam. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to its authorities in section 4, 7, and 28 

of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1917 

(40 Stat. 266; 33 U.S.C. 1) and Chapter 

XIX of the Army Appropriations Act of 

1919 (40 Stat. 892; 33 U.S.C. 3), the 

Corps proposes to amend the 

regulations in 33 CFR part 207.718. The 

Corps is proposing to amend the 

regulations in 33 CFR part 207.718 (b), 

(d)(3), (e), (f)(1), (j) and (w)(7). Paragraph 

(b) changes the description of the limits 

of the approach channels at Bonneville 

Lock and Dam. Paragraph (d)(3) deletes 

the Bonneville Lock and Dam specific 

exception referring to vessels entering 

under an amber light. This provides 

consistent entering and exiting signals 

for the entire Columbia/Snake lock and 

dam system. Paragraph (e) had several 

changes. The new paragraph deletes the 

Bonneville specific exception on 

useable chamber size. The new 

paragraph adds text detailing the 

Bonneville Lock and Dam staff gauges, 

sill elevations, and how to compute 

depth over the sill, since Bonneville’s 

staff gauges are different from all other 

Columbia/Snake lock and dams that 

directly read depth over the sill. The 

new paragraph replaces a sentence 

referring to vessel draft so it refers to 

depth over the sill and not staff gauge 

readings. This change makes the 

sentence correct for all Columbia/Snake 

locks including Bonneville. The new 

paragraph corrects the minimum depth 

over the sill at Bonneville Lock and 

Dam at 19 feet. The new paragraph 

deletes three sentences concerning 

rearrangement of tows specifically at 

Bonneville Lock and Dam, and the new 

paragraph deletes one sentence 

concerning inundation of the 

downstream guide wall at Bonneville 

Lock and Dam. Paragraph (f)(1) corrects 

grammar by changing the last word from 

‘‘sections’’ to ‘‘section.’’ Paragraph (j) 

includes grammatical changes and 

corrects and details the location of the 

downstream mooring facility at 

Bonneville Lock and Dam. This new 

paragraph also deletes reference to 

vessels being allowed to lay-to against 

the upstream guide wall at Bonneville 

Lock and Dam. Paragraph (w)(7) revises 

the upstream restricted area of Little 

Goose Lock and Dam to allow less 

interference between fisherman and the 

boat ramp on the north river bank as 

more small craft portaging is expected 

coinciding with the Lewis and Cark 

bicentennial. The regulation governing
