series airplanes.

Note 1: This airworthiness directive (AD)

applies to each engine identified in the

preceding applicability provision, regardless

of whether it has been modified, altered, or

repaired in the area subject to the

requirements of this AD. For engines that

have been modified, altered, or repaired so

that the performance of the requirements of

this AD is affected, the owner/operator must

request approval for an alternative method of

compliance in accordance with paragraph (c)

of this AD. The request should include an

assessment of the effect of the modification,

alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition

addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe

condition has not been eliminated, the

request should include specific proposed

actions to address it.

Compliance

Required as indicated, unless

accomplished previously.

To prevent premature LPT disk failure due

to cracking of the LPT disks, which could

result in an uncontained engine failure and

damage to the airplane, accomplish the

following:

New Stage 4 LPT Disk Life Limit

(a) Remove stage 4 LPT disks, P/N’s

30A1457 and 30A1499, prior to exceeding

the new life limit of 4000 cycles-in-service

(CIS).

(b) Except for the provisions of paragraph

(c) of this AD, no parts, identified by P/N in

paragraph (a) of this AD, that exceed the new

life limit of 4000 CIS, may be installed.

Alternative Method of Compliance

(c) An alternative method of compliance or

adjustment of the compliance time that

provides an acceptable level of safety may be

used if approved by the Manager, Engine

Certification Office (ECO). Operators shall

submit their request through an appropriate

FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who

may add comments and then send it to the

Manager, ECO.

Note 2: Information concerning the

existence of approved alternative methods of

compliance with this airworthiness directive,

if any, may be obtained from the ECO.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 71

[Airspace Docket No. 01–ACE–2]

Amendment to Class E Airspace;

Phillipsburg, KS

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Direct final rule; request for

comments.

SUMMARY: This action amends the Class

E airspace area at Phillipsburg, KS. The

FAA has developed Area Navigation

(RNAV) Global Positioning System

(GPS) Runway (RWY) 13 ORIGINAL,

RNAV (GPS) RWY 31 ORIGINAL, and

Nondirectional Beacon (NDB)–A,

ORIGINAL (5/17/01) Standard

Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP)

to serve Phillipsburg Municipal Airport.

Additional controlled airspace

extending upward from 700 feet Above

Ground Level (AGL) is needed to

accommodate the SIAPs and for other

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations

at this airport. This action will also

correct the geographical coordinates of

Phillipsburg Municipal Airport,

Phillipsburg, KS.

The intended effect of this rule is to

provide controlled Class E airspace for

aircraft executing the SIAPs and to

segregate aircraft using instrument

approach procedures in instrument

conditions from aircraft operating in

visual conditions.

DATES: This direct final rule is effective

on 0901 UTC, July 12, 2001.

Comments for inclusion in the Rules

Docket must be received on or before

May 1, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Sends comments regarding

the rule in triplicate to: Manager,

Operations and Airspace Branch, Air

Traffic Division, ACE–530, DOT

Regional Headquarters Building, Federal

Aviation Administration, Docket

Number 01–ACE–2, 901 Locust, Kansas

City, MO 64106.

The official docket may be examined

in the Office of the Regional Counsel for

the Central Region at the same address

between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.,

Monday through Friday, except Federal

holidays. An informal docket may also

be examined during normal business

hours in the Air Traffic Division at the

same address listed above.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Kathy Randolph, Air Traffic Division,

Operations & Airspace Branch, ACE–

520C, DOT Regional Headquarters

Building, Federal Aviation

Administration, 901 Locust, Kansas

City, MO 64106; telephone: (816) 329–

2525.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA

has developed RNAV (GPS) RWY 13

ORIGINAL, RNAV (GPS) RWY 31

ORIGINAL and NDB–A ORIGINAL (5/

17/01) SIAPs to serve Phillipsburg

Municipal Airport, Phillipsburg, KS.

The amendment to Class E airspace at

Phillipsburg, KS, will provide

additional controlled airspace at and

above 700 feet AGL in order to contain

the new SIAPs within controlled

airspace, and thereby facilitate

separation of aircraft operating under

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR). The area

will 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 7400.9H, dated September 1,

2000, and effective September 16, 2000,

which is incorporated by reference in 14

CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace

designation listed in this document will

be published subsequently in the Order.

The Direct Final Rule Procedure

The FAA anticipates that this

regulation will not result in adverse or

negative comment and, therefore, is

issuing it as a direct final rule. Previous

actions of this nature have not been

controversial and have not resulted in

adverse comments or objections. The

amendment will enhance safety for all

flight operations by designating an area

where VFR pilots may anticipate the

presence of IFR aircraft at lower

altitudes, especially during inclement

weather conditions. A greater degree of

13012 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 42 / Friday, March 2, 2001 / Rules and Regulations

safety is achieved by depicting the area

on aeronautical charts. Unless a written

adverse or negative comment, or a

written notice of intent to submit an

adverse or negative comment is received

within the comment period, the

regulation will become effective on the

date specified above. After the close of

the comment period, the FAA will

publish a document in the Federal

Register indicating that no adverse or

negative comments were received and

confirming the date on which the final

rule will become effective. If the FAA

does receive, within the comment

period, an adverse or negative comment,

or written notice of intent to submit

such a comment, a document

withdrawing the direct final rule will be

published in the Federal Register, and

a notice of proposed rulemaking may be

published with a new comment period.

Comments Invited

Although this action is in the form of

a final rule and was not preceded by a

notice of proposed rulemaking,

comments are invited on this rule.

Interested persons are invited to

comment on this rule by submitting

such written data, views, or arguments

as they may desire. Communications

should identify the Rules Docket

number and be submitted in triplicate to

the address specified under the caption

ADDRESSES. All communications

received on or before the closing date

for comments will be considered, and

this rule may be amended or withdrawn

in light of the comments received.

Factual information that supports the

commenter’s ideas and suggestions is

extremely helpful in evaluating the

effectiveness of this action and

determining whether additional

rulemaking action would be needed.

Comments are specifically invited on

the overall regulatory, economic,

environmental, and energy-related

aspects of the rule that might suggest a

need to modify the rule. All comments

submitted will be available, both before

and after the closing date for comments,

in the Rules Docket for examination by

interested persons. A report that

summarizes each FAA-public contact

concerned with the substance of this

action will be filed in the Rules Docket.

Commenters wishing the FAA to

acknowledge receipt of their comments

submitted in response to this rule must

submit a self-addressed, stamped

postcard on which the following

statement is made: ‘‘Comments to

Docket No. 01–ACE–2.’’ The postcard

will be date stamped and returned to the

commenter.

Agency Findings

The regulations adopted herein will

not have 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. Therefore, it is

determined that this final rule does not

have federalism implications under

Executive Order 13132.

The FAA has determined that this

regulation is noncontroversial and

unlikely to result in adverse or negative

comments. For the reasons discussed in

the preamble, I certify that this

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) if

promulgated, 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.
