2017-28158 Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes Rule We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-08-01, which applied to certain The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes. AD 2015-08-01 required, depending on airplane configuration, installing new relays and bracket assemblies, inspecting to ensure that the new relays do not contact adjacent wire bundles, torqueing the bracket assembly installation nuts and ground stud nuts, retesting the bond resistance between the bracket assemblies and the terminal lugs on the ground studs, and doing related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. This AD does not retain any requirements, and instead requires deactivating the spoiler control module relays and capping and stowing the associated wiring on airplanes on which the actions required by AD 2015-08-01 have been done. This AD was prompted by a report of an uncommanded spoiler movement during flap configuration just before landing, on an airplane on which the actions required by AD 2015-08-01 had been done. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. 2017-12-29 2017 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/12/29/2017-28158/airworthiness-directives-the-boeing-company-airplanes https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-12-29/pdf/2017-28158.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-08-01, which applied to certain The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes.

2017-27884 Hours of Service of Drivers: Application for Exemption; Agricultural Retailers Association Proposed Rule FMCSA announces that the Agricultural Retailers Association (ARA) has requested an exemption on behalf of its members from the requirement that motor carriers and their drivers of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) use an electronic logging device (ELD) to record the driver hours-of-service (HOS). ARA states that the ELD requirement imposes undue economic and other burdens on its member retailers and distributors of farm-related products and services. It asserts that ELDs fail to properly record the complex HOS data, are not properly certified by the FMCSA, and do not provide appropriate cyber-security safeguards. ARA also asserts that ELDs will not function properly in many locations in rural America because of poor internet and cellular connectivity. ARA states that the operations of its members under exemption from the ELD requirements will achieve a level of safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent the proposed exemption. FMCSA requests public comment on ARA's application for exemption. 2017-12-28 2017 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/12/28/2017-27884/hours-of-service-of-drivers-application-for-exemption-agricultural-retailers-association https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-12-28/pdf/2017-27884.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration 492,181 FMCSA announces that the Agricultural Retailers Association (ARA) has requested an exemption on behalf of its members from the requirement that motor carriers and their drivers of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) use an electronic logging device (ELD)...

2017-27969 Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Canaveral Barge Canal, Canaveral, FL Rule The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the operating schedule that governs the SR 401 Drawbridges, mile 5.5 at Port Canaveral, Florida. The deviation is necessary to reduce vehicular traffic congestion and to ensure the safety of roadways while passengers are transiting to and from the cruise ship terminals. Since the arrival of additional cruise ships to the Port of Canaveral, massive traffic back-ups have been caused by the on demand drawbridge openings. This deviation allows the bridges to not open to navigation during prime cruise ship passenger loading and unloading times on Saturdays and Sundays. 2017-12-28 2017 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/12/28/2017-27969/drawbridge-operation-regulation-canaveral-barge-canal-canaveral-fl https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-12-28/pdf/2017-27969.pdf Homeland Security Department; Coast Guard 227,53 The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the operating schedule that governs the SR 401 Drawbridges, mile 5.5 at Port Canaveral, Florida.

Sabine Pass is requesting this authorization on its own behalf and as agent for other entities who hold title to the natural gas at the time of export. Sabine Pass's existing blanket authorization will expire on January 15, 2018.\2\ The current Application in effect is a request to extend Sabine Pass's current short-term blanket authorization issued in FE Docket No. 15-171-LNG for another two-year period beginning January 16, 2018 and extending through January 15, 2020. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-12-28 2017 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/12/28/2017-27970/sabine-pass-liquefaction-llc-application-for-blanket-authorization-to-export-liquefied-natural-gas https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-12-28/pdf/2017-27970.pdf Energy Department 136 The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) gives notice (Notice) of receipt of an application (Application), filed on December 20, 2017, by Sabine Pass Liquefaction, LLC (Sabine Pass), requesting blanket authorization to export...
