Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 73 / Friday, April 15, 2022 / Notices
under § 150.21 of FAR part 150, that the
statutorily required consultation has
been accomplished.
The FAA has formally received the
noise compatibility program for DLH,
also effective on April 11, 2022.
Preliminary review of the submitted
material indicates that it conforms to the
requirements for the submittal of noise
compatibility programs, but that further
review will be necessary prior to
approval or disapproval of the program.
The formal review period, limited by
law to a maximum of 180 days, will be
completed on or before October 8, 2022.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of 14
CFR part 150, § 150.33. The primary
considerations in the evaluation process
are whether the proposed measures may
reduce the level of aviation safety,
create an undue burden on interstate or
foreign commerce, or be reasonably
consistent with obtaining the goal of
reducing existing non-compatible land
uses and preventing the introduction of
additional non-compatible land uses.
Interested persons are invited to
comment on the proposed program with
specific reference to these factors. All
comments, other than those properly
addressed to local land use authorities,
will be considered by the FAA to the
extent practicable. Copies of the noise
exposure maps, the FAA’s evaluation of
the maps, and the proposed noise
compatibility program can be viewed
online at the DLH website at https://

Notice of closure of the publicuse of East Hampton Airport (HTO).

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

The FAA received written
notice on January 20, 2022 from the
Town of East Hampton, followed by an
amended request on February 17, 2022,
advising that effective May 17, 2022, the
Town will be closing the public-use East
Hampton Airport (HTO), East Hampton,
New York.

SUMMARY:

Mahendra Raghubeer, Manager, Safety
and Standards Branch, Federal Aviation
Administration, 1 Aviation Plaza,
Jamaica, NY 11434 Tel: 718–553–3352,
email: [email protected].
HTO is a
general aviation airport in the National
Plan of Integrated Airport Systems
(NPIAS). The Town of East Hampton
has owned and operated HTO for
several decades. HTO previously
received federal grants-in-aid for airport
development and was subject to
statutory grant assurances, but the Town
is no longer contractually obligated to
continue operating HTO as a public use
airport. On January 20, 2022, and
amended on February 17, 2020, the
Town of East Hampton notified the FAA
that it seeks to deactivate HTO on May
17, 2022 as a public-use airport and
activate a new private-use airport, at the
same location, on May 19, 2022. Section
46319 of title 49 of the United States
Code (49 U.S.C. 46319) provides that a
public agency (as defined in 49 U.S.C.
47102) may not permanently close an
airport in the NPIAS without providing
written notice to the FAA Administrator
at least 30 days before the date of the
closure. In this case, the public-use
airport will be closed. The FAA
recognizes the correspondence received
on January 20, 2022 from the Town of
East Hampton, followed by the amended
request on February 17, 2022, meets that
requirement. The FAA is publishing the
Town of East Hampton’s notice to close
the public-use of HTO in accordance
with 49 U.S.C. 46319(b).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to issue
two notices seeking public comment on
information collection activities before
OMB may approve paperwork packages.
See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8
through 1320.12. On January 14, 2022,
FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting comment on
the ICRs for which it is now seeking
OMB approval. See 87 FR 2482. FRA
received no comments in response to
this notice.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve the proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for
public comment. Federal law requires
OMB to approve or disapprove
paperwork packages between 30 and 60
days after the 30-day notice is

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 73 / Friday, April 15, 2022 / Notices

(Aug. 29, 1995). OMB believes the 30day notice informs the regulated
community to file relevant comments
and affords the agency adequate time to
digest public comments before it
renders a decision. 60 FR 44983 (Aug.
29, 1995). Therefore, respondents
should submit their respective
comments to OMB within 30 days of
publication to best ensure having their
full effect.
Comments are invited on the
following ICRs regarding: (1) Whether
the information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of FRA’s estimates of
the burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of information collection
activities on the public, including the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The summaries below describe the
ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
Title: Locomotive Certification (Noise
Compliance Regulations).
OMB Control Number: 2130–0527.
Abstract: Under authority granted by
the Noise Control Act of 1972, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has established limits for noise
emissions related to rail carriers in 40
CFR part 201. Those limits are enforced
by FRA under 49 CFR part 210. In
particular, the information FRA collects
under § 210.27 is necessary to ensure
compliance with EPA noise standards
for new locomotives. Although railroads
no longer need to display a certification
badge or tag in the locomotive cab, as
was previously required by nowremoved § 210.27(d), the locomotives
still need to be tested and certified to
comply with the noise emission
standards, as required under
§ 210.27(a)–(c).
Type of Request: Extension without
change (with changes in estimates) of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Form(s): N/A.
Respondent Universe: 4 locomotive
manufacturers.
Frequency of Submission: On
occasion.
Total Estimated Annual Responses: 4.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: 2
hours.
Total Estimated Annual Burden Hour
Dollar Cost Equivalent: $155.

Title: Use of Locomotive Horns at
Highway-Rail Grade Crossings.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0560.
Abstract: Under 49 CFR part 222, FRA
seeks to collect information from
railroads and public authorities in order
to increase safety at public highway-rail
grade crossings nationwide by requiring
that locomotive horns be sounded when
trains approach and pass through these
crossings or by ensuring that a safety
level at least equivalent to that provided
by routine locomotive horn sounding
exists for quiet zone corridors in which
such horn sounding is silenced. FRA
reviews applications by public
authorities intending to establish new
quiet zones by implementing alternative
safety measures and approves the
effectiveness rate assigned to them.
FRA made several adjustments to its
estimated paperwork burdens in this
ICR extension.
Type of Request: Extension without
change (with changes in estimates) of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Form(s): N/A.
Respondent Universe: 754 railroads/
645 public authorities.
Frequency of Submission: On
occasion.
Total Estimated Annual Responses:
3,620.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
7,253 hours.
Total Estimated Annual Burden Hour
Dollar Cost Equivalent: $452,585.
Under 44 U.S.C. 3507(a) and 5 CFR
1320.5(b) and 1320.8(b)(3)(vi), FRA
informs all interested parties that it may
not conduct or sponsor, and a
respondent is not required to respond
to, a collection of information that does
not display a currently valid OMB
control number.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.
