Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 105 / Thursday, June 3, 2021 / Proposed Rules 29709 

Regulatory Findings 

The FAA 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 this proposed regulation: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Would not affect intrastate 

aviation in Alaska, 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. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

The Proposed Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 

39 as follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive: 

Pratt & Whitney: Docket No. FAA–2021– 

0447; Project Identifier AD–2021–00131– 

E. 

(a) Comments Due Date 

The FAA must receive comments on this 

airworthiness directive (AD) by July 19, 2021. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to Pratt & Whitney 

PW1519G, PW1521G, PW1521G–3, 

PW1521GA, PW1524G, PW1524G–3,

(e) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by reports of cracks 

in the high-pressure compressor (HPC) rotor 

shaft that resulted in in-flight shutdowns and 

unscheduled engine removals. The FAA is 

issuing this AD to prevent cracking of the 

HPC rotor shaft. The unsafe condition, if not 

addressed, could result in release of a highpressure turbine disk, damage to the engine, 

and damage to the airplane. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(g) Required Action 

At next engine shop visit after the effective 

date of this AD, remove HPC front hub, part 

number (P/N) 30G1910 or 30G3210, and HPC 

rotor shaft, P/N 30G1854, 30G3109, 30G4995, 

30G4953, or 31G0014, from service and 

replace each part with a part eligible for 

installation. 

(h) Definitions 

(1) For the purpose of this AD, an ‘‘engine 

shop visit’’ is the induction of an engine into 

the shop for maintenance involving the 

separation of pairs of major mating engine 

case flanges, except for the following, which 

do not constitute an engine shop visit: 

(i) Separation of engine flanges solely for 

the purposes of transportation without 

subsequent maintenance does not constitute 

an engine shop visit. 

(ii) Separation of engine flanges solely for 

the purpose of replacing the fan without 

subsequent maintenance does not constitute 

an engine shop visit. 

(2) For the purpose of this AD, a ‘‘part 

eligible for installation’’ is: 

(i) For a HPC front hub: Any HPC front hub 

with a P/N other than P/N 30G1910 or 

30G3210; and 

(ii) For a HPC rotor shaft: Any HPC rotor 

shaft with a P/N other than P/N 30G1854, 

30G3109, 30G4995, 30G4953, or 31G0014. 

(i) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs)

I. Background on the Kentucky 

Program 

Section 503(a) of the Act permits a 

State to assume primacy for the 

regulation of surface coal mining and 

reclamation operations on non-Federal 

and non-Indian lands within its borders 

by demonstrating that its approved State 

program includes, among other things, 

State laws and regulations that govern 

surface coal mining and reclamation 

operations in accordance with the Act 

and consistent with the Federal 

regulations. See 30 U.S.C. 1253(a)(1) 

and (7). On the basis of these criteria, 

the Secretary of the Interior 

conditionally approved the Kentucky 

program effective May 18, 1982. You 

can find background information on the 

Kentucky program, including the 

Secretary’s findings, the disposition of 

comments, and conditions of approval 

of the Kentucky program in the May 18, 

1982, Federal Register (47 FR 21434). 

You can also find later actions 

concerning the Kentucky program and 

program amendments at 30 CFR 917.11, 

917.12, 917.13, 917.15, 917.16, and 

917.17. 

II. Description of the Proposed 

Amendment 

By letter dated May 18, 2020, 

(Administrative Record No. KY–2005), 

Kentucky sent us an amendment to its 

program under SMCRA (30 U.S.C. 1201 

et seq.). This submission is seeking to 

repeal administrative regulations at 

Title 405 of the Kentucky 

Administrative Regulations (KAR) 

Chapter 26:001, Operation of two (2) 

acres or less, since such operations are 

no longer allowed in the 

Commonwealth. This submission also 

references changes and other minor 

revisions to the administrative 

regulations, which are not intended to 

change the meaning of, but rather, to 

clarify content or to comply with 

Chapter 13A of the Kentucky Revised 

Statutes (KRS) legislative drafting 

requirements. The full text of the 

program amendment is available for you 

to read at the locations listed above 

under ADDRESSES or at 

www.regulations.gov. 

III. Public Comment Procedures 

Under the provisions of 30 CFR 

732.17(h), we are seeking your 

comments on whether the amendment 

satisfies the applicable program 

approval criteria of 30 CFR 732.15. If we 

approve the amendment, it will become 

part of the State program. 

Electronic or Written Comments 

If you submit written or electronic 

comments on the proposed rule during 

the 30-day comment period, they should 

be specific, confined to issues pertinent 

to the proposed regulations, and explain 

the reason for any recommended 

change(s). We appreciate any and all 

comments, but those most useful and 

likely to influence decisions on the final 

regulations will be those that either 

involve personal experience or include 

citations to and analyses of SMCRA, its 

legislative history, its implementing 

regulations, case law, other pertinent 

State or Federal laws or regulations, 

technical literature, or other relevant 

publications. 

We cannot ensure that comments 

received after the close of the comment 

period (see DATES) or sent to an address 

other than those listed (see ADDRESSES) 

will be included in the docket for this 

rulemaking and considered. 

Public Availability of Comments 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment, including your 

personal identifying information, may 

be made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal 

Basis 

The Fifth Coast Guard District puts in 

place recurring special local regulations 

to ensure public safety for marine events 

that take place either on or over the 

navigable waters of the United States 

within the Fifth Coast Guard District 

area of responsibility as defined at 33 

CFR part 3, subpart 3.25. These 

recurring special local regulations are 

found in the Code of Federal 

Regulations at 33 CFR 100.501 and that 

section’s respective table. The Coast 

Guard regularly updates these 

regulations. They were last 

substantively amended June 13, 2017. 

The Fifth Coast Guard District is 

proposing to revise these regulations for 

improved clarity, to correspond with 

current Coast Guard operating policies 

for marine events, to update existing 

events, add new events, and remove 

events that no longer require additional 

safety measures. Based on the nature of 

marine events, large numbers of 

participants and spectators, and event 

locations, the events listed in the table 

to 33 CFR 100.501 could pose a risk to 

participants or waterway users if normal 

vessel traffic were to interfere with the 

event. Possible hazards include risks of 

injury or death resulting from near or 

actual contact among participant vessels 

and non-participant vessels or mariners 

traversing through the regulated area. In 

order to protect the safety of all 

waterway users including event 

participants and non-participants, this 

rule would establish special local 

regulations for the time and location of 

each marine event. 

The purpose of this rulemaking is to 

ensure the safety of persons, vessels, 

and the navigable waters within close 

proximity to recurring marine events 

before, during, and after the scheduled 

events. The Coast Guard is proposing 

this rulemaking under authority in 46 

U.S.C. 70041. The Secretary has 

delegated ports and waterways 

authority, with certain reservations not 

applicable here, to the Commandant via 

DHS Delegation No. 0170.1(II)(70). The 

Commandant has further delegated 

these authorities within the Coast Guard 

as described in 33 CFR 1.05–1 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

Changes To Improve Clarity and Reflect 

Current Coast Guard Marine Event 

Policies 

We are proposing several stylistic and 

formatting changes to update 33 CFR 

100.501, and associated tables, to 

provide greater clarity and remove 

potential ambiguities. We are also 

proposing to make revisions to reflect 

current Coast Guard marine event 

policy. 

• Plain language edits, such as 

switching from passive to active voice 

and more clearly stating the 

enforcement period for each event. 

• Writing regulatory requirements 

and definitions in the singular rather 

than the plural, where appropriate. 

• Listing definitions and the events 

by COTP Zone in alphabetical order. 

• Reformatting the table entries so 

that they all have similar formatting 

(there are currently discrepancies in 

how similar entries are formatted). 

• Separating the special local 

regulations for each COTP Zone into 

their own tables. 

• Amending the name and location 

for Sector Virginia to Portsmouth, VA, 

where the command center is located 

and to change the phone number for 

Sector North Carolina. 

Additionally, we are proposing to 

consolidate all defined terms into a 

single paragraph, paragraph (b) of 

§ 100.501, and list them in alphabetical 

order. Currently the defined terms 

‘‘buffer area’’, ‘‘race area’’, and 

‘‘spectator area’’ appear in the
