Proposed Establishment of Restricted

FAA take action to establish R–5601F to 

provide additional airspace needed to 

support new high angle air-to-ground 

training requirements for Air Force, 

Navy, and Marine aircraft operating over 

the Falcon Bombing Range. This action 

would also enhance Fort Sill’s ability to 

host joint training. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before December 19, 2005.

History 

On March 1, 2005, the U.S. Army 

requested that the FAA take action to 

establish R–5601F. Specifically, the 

requested action would provide 

additional airspace needed to support 

new high angle air-to-ground training 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 211 / Wednesday, November 2, 2005 / Proposed Rules 66307 

1The comment must be accompanied by an 

explicit request for confidential treatment, 

including the factual and legal basis for the request, 

and must identify the specific portions of the 

comment to be withheld from the public record. 

The request will be granted or denied by the 

Commission’s General Counsel, consistent with 

Continued 

requirements for Air Force, Navy, and 

Marine aircraft operating over the 

Falcon Bombing Range. Specifically, R–

5601F would provide additional 

maneuvering area needed for aircraft 

conducting training in adjacent 

restricted areas R–5601B and R–5601C 

which are located over the West Range 

Target Area and the Falcon Bombing 

Range, respectively. This action would 

also enhance Fort Sill’s ability to host 

joint training. 

The Proposal 

At the request of the U.S. Army, the 

FAA is proposing an amendment to 

Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 

CFR) part 73 to establish R–5601F 

adjacent to and north of R–5601B and 

R–5601C. Establishment of the new 

restricted area would provide additional 

airspace needed to support new high 

angle air-to-ground training 

requirements for Air Force, Navy, and 

Marine aircraft operating over the 

Falcon Bombing Range and would 

enhance Fort Sill’s ability to host joint 

training. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. 

Therefore, this proposed regulation: (1) 

Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not 

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of 

Transportation (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. Since this is a routine 

matter that will only affect air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this proposed rule, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subjected to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1E, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures,’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

areas. 

The Proposed Amendment 

In consideration of the foregoing, the 

Federal Aviation Administration 

proposes to amend 14 CFR part 73 as 

follows:

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 

16 CFR Part 305 

RIN 3084–AB03 

Rule Concerning Disclosures 

Regarding Energy Consumption and 

Water Use of Certain Home Appliances 

and Other Products Required Under 

the Energy Policy and Conservation 

Act (‘‘Appliance Labeling Rule’’) 

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission 

(FTC or Commission). 

ACTION: Advance notice of proposed 

rulemaking; request for comment. 

SUMMARY: Section 137 of the Energy 

Policy Act of 2005 requires the 

Commission to conduct a rulemaking to 

examine the effectiveness of current 

energy efficiency labeling requirements 

for consumer products issued pursuant 

to the Energy Policy and Conservation 

Act. In response to that directive, the 

Commission is seeking comments on the 

effectiveness of the Appliance Labeling 

Rule and suggestions for improvements 

to the energy labeling program. The 

Commission is also requesting 

comments about the overall costs and 

benefits of the Rule and its overall 

regulatory and economic impact as a 

part of the Commission’s systematic 

review of all its regulations and guides. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

January 13, 2006. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are 

invited to submit written comments. 

Comments should refer to ‘‘Energy 

Labeling, Project No. R511994’’ to 

facilitate the organization of comments. 

A comment filed in paper form should 

include this reference both in the text 

and on the envelope, and should be 

mailed to the following address: Federal 

Trade Commission/Office of the 

Secretary, Room H–135 (Annex O), 600 

Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., 

Washington, DC 20580. The FTC is 

requesting that any comment filed in 

paper form be sent by courier or 

overnight service, if possible, because 

U.S. postal mail in the Washington area 

and at the Commission is subject to 

delay due to heightened security 

precautions. Comments containing 

confidential material must be filed in 

paper form, must be clearly labeled 

‘‘Confidential,’’ and must comply with
