57898 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 196 / Thursday, October 11, 2007 / Proposed Rules 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify this 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 and placed it in the 

AD docket.

Office of Rulemaking (202) 267–9677, to 

request a copy of Advisory Circular No. 

11–2A, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 

Distribution System, which describes 

the application procedure. 

The Proposal 

This action proposes to amend Title 

14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 

CFR) part 71, by establishing a Class E 

airspace area extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Field of 

Dreams Airport, Hinckley, MN. The 

establishment of RNAV (GPS) IAPs have 

made this action necessary. The 

intended effect of this proposal is to 

provide adequate controlled airspace for 

Instrument Flight Rules operations at 

Field of Dreams Airport, Hinckley, MN. 

The area would be depicted on 

appropriate aeronautical charts. 

Class E airspace areas extending 

upward from 700 feet or more above the 

surface of the earth are published in 

Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order 7400.9R, 

signed August 15, 2007, and effective 

September 15, 2007, which is 

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document would be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

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. 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. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this 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. This rulemaking is 

promulgated under the authority 

described in Subtitle VII, Part A, 

Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of the airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it would 

enhance the safety and management of 

aircraft operations at Field of Dreams 

Airport, Hinckley, MN.

Regulations Pertaining to Mergers, 

Acquisitions and Takeovers 

AGENCY: Department of the Treasury. 

ACTION: Notice of inquiry; Notice of 

public meeting. 

SUMMARY: On July 26, 2007, President 

Bush signed into law the Foreign 

Investment and National Security Act of 

2007 (‘‘FINSA’’), which amends section 

721 of the Defense Production Act of 

1950. Section 721 creates a process by 

which the President and his delegee, the 

Committee on Foreign Investment in the 

United States (‘‘CFIUS’’), conduct 

national security reviews of foreign 

acquisitions of control of U.S. 

businesses. As chair of CFIUS, Treasury 

has begun preparatory work on 

regulations that implement these new 

legislative provisions. Treasury is 

interested in private sector views on 

issues relating to the existing national 

security review process, as well as 

issues raised by FINSA, and is inviting 

both written and oral comments. 

DATES: Written comments are due on or 

before December 7, 2007. The public 

meeting will be held from two to four 

o’clock (2–4 p.m.) on October 23, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be 

submitted electronically to 

CFIUS@do.treas.gov. Electronic filings 

that exceed 5 megabytes (MB) must be 

divided into smaller transmissions of no 

more than 5MB each. All comments will 

be posted to CFIUS’s Web site at http:// 

www.ustreas.gov/offices/internationalaffairs/exon-florio/.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: On May 10, 2007, 

President Bush issued an Open 

Economies statement reaffirming the 

United States’ longstanding policy of 

welcoming international investment. He 

noted that, while continuing ‘‘to take 

every necessary step to protect national 

security, my Administration recognizes 

that our prosperity and security are 

founded on our country’s openness.’’ In 

that context, on July 26, 2007, President 

Bush signed into law the Foreign 

Investment and National Security Act of 

2007 (‘‘FINSA’’) (Pub. L. 110–49), which 

amends section 721 of the Defense 

Production Act of 1950 (50 U.S.C. 2170 

et seq.) (‘‘section 721’’), to codify the 

structure, role, process, and 

responsibilities of CFIUS. The principal 

provisions of the new legislation are 

described below. 

CFIUS Membership: FINSA 

establishes CFIUS in statute and 

specifies its membership to include the 

Secretaries of the Departments of the 

Treasury, State, Defense, Commerce, 

Energy, and Homeland Security, and the 

Attorney General. Additionally, the 

Secretary of Labor and the Director of 

National Intelligence are ex officio, nonvoting members of CFIUS, with the 

latter serving as an independent advisor 

to CFIUS on intelligence matters. In 

addition to certain officials in the 

Executive Office of the President, the 

President may also appoint the head of 

any other executive department, agency, 

or office whom he deems appropriate to 

serve as a CFIUS member. Current 

executive orders specify twelve CFIUS 

members, including certain officials in 

the Executive Office of the President. 

FINSA specifies that the Secretary of 

the Treasury shall serve as Chairperson 

of CFIUS and, as appropriate, shall 

designate a CFIUS member or members 

to be the ‘‘lead’’ agency or agencies for 

each covered transaction reviewed by 

CFIUS and for the monitoring of 

completed transactions. 

Review and Investigation Process: 

FINSA requires that, upon receipt by 

Treasury of written notification of a 

‘‘covered transaction’’ (i.e., a merger, 

acquisition, or takeover by or with any 

foreign person that could result in 

foreign control of any person engaged in 

interstate commerce in the United 

States), the President, acting through 

CFIUS, shall review the transaction 

within 30 days to determine its effects 

on national security, based on any 

relevant factors, including several new 

factors FINSA added to an illustrative 

list contained in section 721. The term 

‘‘national security’’ is clarified to 

include those issues relating to 

‘‘homeland security,’’ including its 

application to ‘‘critical infrastructure,’’

which is also defined in the new 

legislation. 

If, during its review, CFIUS 

determines that (1) the transaction 

threatens to impair U.S. national 

security and the threat has not yet been 

mitigated, (2) the lead agency 

recommends an investigation and 

CFIUS concurs, (3) the transaction 

would result in foreign government 

control, or (4) the transaction would 

result in the control of any U.S. critical 

infrastructure that could impair U.S. 

national security and the threat has not 

yet been mitigated, then CFIUS must 

conduct and complete within 45 days 

an investigation of the transaction. The 

latter two grounds for an investigation 

do not mandate an investigation if the 

Secretary or Deputy Secretary of the 

Treasury and the equivalent lead agency 

counterparts jointly determine that the 

transaction will not impair U.S. national 

security. 

FINSA also authorizes the President 

or CFIUS, if approved at the Under 

Secretary level or above, to review 

unilaterally any covered transaction that 

is proposed or pending after August 23, 

1988, and that has not previously been 

reviewed, or a previously reviewed 

transaction if false or inaccurate 

information was submitted to CFIUS 

during the review or investigation of the 

transaction or a mitigation agreement 

resulting from the review or 

investigation was intentionally and 

materially breached. 

Risk Mitigation and Tracking of 

Withdrawn Cases: FINSA provides that 

CFIUS or a lead agency designated by 

the Secretary of the Treasury may, on 

behalf of CFIUS, enter into, modify, 

monitor, and enforce agreements with 

any party to a covered transaction to 

mitigate national security risk posed by 

the transaction. Any mitigation 

agreement must be based on transactionspecific, risk-based analysis. FINSA also 

requires that CFIUS establish a method 

of tracking transactions withdrawn from 

the review or investigation process, as 

well as a process for establishing 

interim protections to address any 

national security concerns raised by 

withdrawn transactions that have not 

yet been refiled. 

Actions by the President: FINSA 

authorizes the President to suspend or 

prohibit any covered transaction when 

(1) there is credible evidence that the 

foreign interest might take action that 

threatens to impair national security, 

and (2) provisions of law other than 

section 721 and the International 

Emergency Economic Powers Act do not 

provide adequate and appropriate 

authority to protect national security in 

the matter before the President. The 

President must decide whether to take 

such action within 15 days of the 

mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with PROPOSALS
