14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 28073; Amdt. No. 1650]

Standard Instrument Approach

Procedures; Miscellaneous

Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This amendment establishes,

amends, suspends, or revokes Standard

Instrument Approach Procedures

(SIAPs) for operations at certain

airports. These regulatory actions are

needed because of the adoption of new

or revised criteria, or because of changes

occurring in the National Airspace

System, such as the commissioning of

new navigational facilities, addition of

new obstacles, or changes in air traffic

requirements. These changes are

designed to provide safe and efficient

use of the navigable airspace and to

promote safe flight operations under

instrument flight rules at the affected

airports.

DATES: An effective date for each SIAP

is specified in the amendatory

provisions.

Incorporation by reference-approved

by the Director of the Federal Register

on December 31, 1980, and reapproved

as of January 1, 1982.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters

incorporated by reference in the

amendment is as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

amendment to part 97 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 97)

establishes, amends, suspends, or

revokes Standard Instrument Approach

Procedures (SIAPs). The complete

regulatory description of each SIAP is

contained in official FAA form

documents which are incorporated by

reference in this amendment under 5

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and § 97.20

of the Federal Aviation Regulations

(FAR). The applicable FAA Forms are

identified as FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–

4, and 8260–5. Materials incorporated

by reference are available for

examination or purchase as stated

above.

The large number of SIAPs, their

complex nature, and the need for a

special format make their verbatim

publication in the Federal Register

expensive and impractical. Further,

airmen do not use the regulatory text of

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic

depiction on charts printed by

publishers of aeronautical materials.

Thus, the advantages of incorporation

by reference are realized and

publication of the complete description

of each SIAP contained in FAA form

documents is unnecessary. The

provisions of this amendment state the

affected CFR (and FAR) sections, with

the types and effective dates of the

SIAPs. This amendment also identifies

the airport, its location, the procedure

identification and the amendment

number.

The Rule

This amendment to part 97 is effective

upon publication of each separate SIAP

as contained in the transmittal. Some

SIAP amendments may have been

previously issued by the FAA in a

National Flight Data Center (FDC)

Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an

emergency action of immediate flight

safety relating directly to published

aeronautical charts. The circumstances

which created the need for some SIAP

amendments may require making them

effective in less than 30 days. For the

remaining SIAPs, an effective date at

least 30 days after publication is

provided.

Further, the SIAPs contained in this

amendment are based on the criteria

contained in the U.S. Standard for

Terminal Instrument Approach

Procedures (TERPS). In developing

these SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were

applied to the conditions existing or

anticipated at the affected airports.

Because of the close and immediate

relationship between these SIAPs and

safety in air commerce, I find that notice

and public procedure before adopting

these SIAPs are unnecessary,

impracticable, and contrary to the

public interest and, where applicable,

that good cause exists for making some

SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.

The FAA has determined that this

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. For the same

reason, the FAA certifies that this

amendment will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities under the

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

[Docket No. 950126028–5028–01]

RIN 0690–AA22

Testimony by Employees and the

Production of Documents in Legal

Proceedings

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary,

Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Department of Commerce

is revising its regulations which

prescribes policies and procedures to be

followed with respect to the testimony

of Department employees regarding

official matters, and the production of

Department documents in legal

proceedings. These regulations will

serve as a statement of policy and the

amendments expand the scope of the

existing regulations and provide for

more comprehensive standards and

guidelines for Department components,

employees, former employees, other

federal agencies, and the public in

general regarding the appropriate

procedures concerning testimony and

the production of documents.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 20, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: M.

Timothy Conner or Donald J. Reed,

(202) 482–1067.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

301 of Title 5, United States Code,

provides that the head of an Executive

department may prescribe regulations

for the custody, use and preservation of

its records. The Supreme Court has

upheld the ability of Federal agencies to

establish procedures in section 301

regulations governing the production of

records and testimony in legal

proceedings in which the United States

is not a party. United States ex rel.

Touhy v. Ragen, 340 U. S. 462 (1951).

These rules establish Department of

Commerce (DOC) policies and

procedures applicable to the production

of DOC documents and/or testimony by

DOC employees in legal proceedings.

Basically, the legal proceedings

addressed in the rules are any

administrative or judicial activities

traditionally conducted within the

executive or judicial branches of

Federal, state, local or foreign

governmental entities in which the

United States: (i) Is not a party; (ii) is

not represented; (iii) does not have a

direct and substantial interest; and (iv)

is not providing representation to an

individual or entity that is a party.

Similarly, the rules will not cover

activities that are not legal proceedings

such as Congressional request for

records or testimony, or requests for

records under the Freedom of

Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552. In

addition, the rules will not infringe

upon or displace responsibilities

committed to the Department of Justice

in conducting litigation on behalf of the

United States.

Finally, the rules will not remove the

need to comply with any applicable

confidentiality provisions such as the

Privacy Act, The Freedom of

Information Act or the Trade Secrets

Act. In fact, if the requirements of

confidentiality statutes or regulations

are not met, records or testimony cannot

be provided even where the

requirements of these regulations are

satisfied.

A notice of proposed rule making was

published on September 9, 1994, (59 FR

46598). One comment was received

regarding the standing of the individual

or business entity, from whom the

information was obtained, to contest its

production or release. This comment

did not require a modification in the

final rule. The Department of

Commerce’s Touhy regulations cannot,

in and of themselves, provide standing

to third parties. Touhy regulations only

provide a procedure whereby the agency

can determine whether any evidentiary

privileges or statutory requirements of

privacy or confidentiality apply, or if

there is any other legal basis for

withholding information.

This rule has been determined to be

‘‘not significant’’ for purposes of

Executive Order 12866.

The Assistant General Counsel for

Legislation and Regulation certified to

the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the

Small Business Administration that this

rule would not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities. This is

because the rule is established to

facilitate the Department’s safeguarding,

control and preservation of its records,

information, papers and property . As a

result, a regulatory flexibility analysis

was not prepared.
