    Effective date. The foregoing amend-ments shall become effective uponissuance.

    The amendments quarantine all ofFayette and Lavaca Counties in Texas;an additional portion of JohnstonCounty in North Carolina; and a por-tion of Tattnall County in Georgia be-cause of the existence of hog cholera.This action is deemed necessary to pre-vent further spread of the disease. Therestrictions pertaining to the interstatemovement of swine and swine productsfrom or through, quarantined areas ascontained i4 9 CFR Part 76, as amended,will apply to the quarantined areas.

    The amendments exclude "Atascosa,Bee, Bexar, De Witt, Duval, Gollad,Jackson, Karnes, Victoria, and WilsonCounties in Texas from the areas quar-antined because of hog cholera. There-fore, the restrictions pertaining to theinterstate movement of swine and swineproducts from or through quarantinedareas as contained in 9 CFR Part 76, asamended, will not apply to the excludedareas, but will continue to apply to thequarantined areas described in § 76.2(e).Further, the restrictions pertaining tothe interstate movement of swine andswine products from nonquarantinedareas contained in said Part 76 will applyto the areas excluded from quarantine.

    The amendments delete Arkansas, Mis-souri, and North Carolina from the listof hog cholera Eradication States in§ 76.2(f) and add Arkansas and Missourito the list of hog cholera Free States in§ 76.2(g). The special provisiong per-taining to the interstate movement ofswine and swine products from Eradica-tion and Free States remain applicableto Arkansas and Missouri. However, thegeneral restrictions pertaining to inter-state movement from nonquarantinedareas contained in 9 CFR Part 76 willapply to the nonquarantined portionsof North Carolina.

    Insofar as the amendments imposecertain further restrictions necessary toprevent the spread of hog cholera, theymust be made effective immediately toaccomplish their-purpose in the publicinterest. Insofar as they relieve restric-tions, they should be made effectivepromptly in order to be of maximumbenefit to affected persons. It does notappear that public participation in this

    rule making proceeding would make ad-ditional relevant information availableto this Department.

    Accordingly, under the administrativeprocedure provisions in 5 U.S.C. 553, itis found upon good cause that noticeand other public procedure with respectto the amendments are impracticable,unnecessary, and contrary to the pub-lic interest, and good cause is found formaking them effective less than 30 daysafter publication in the FEDERAL REGISTER.

    Title 14-AERONAUTICSAND SPACE

    Chapter I-Federal Aviation Adminis-tration, Department of Transportation

    [Docket No. 11422, Amdt. 1-22]

    PART 1-DEFINITIONS ANI?,ABBREVIATIONS

    Extended Over-Water OperationsThe purpose of this amendment to

    Part 1 of the Federal Aviation Regula-tions is to accommodate the use of heli-copters in various types of operations re-quiring them to operate at distancesgreater than 50 miles from the nearestshoreline.

    This amendment is based on a noticeof proposed rule-making (Notice 71-27)published in the FEDERAL REGISTER onSeptember 28, 1971 (36 P.R. 19091).

    This amendment to the definition of"extended over-water operation" makesa distinction between those operationsconducted with aircraft other than hell-copters and those conducted with heli-copters. Specifically, this amendmentchanges the definition to make it en-compass a helicopter only If it is beingoperated more than 50 nautical milesfrom the nearest shoreline and is notwithin 50 nautical miles of an off-shoreheliport structure.

    Comments received in response to No-tice 71-27 were almost unanimous intheir approval of the proposed amend-ment. Certain comments expressed theopinion that the definition as amendedherein, wbuld be detrimental to safetyconsidering the limited gliding abilityand seaworthiness of helicopters. How-ever, we do not believe such an opinion issupported by helicopter operating expe-rieice under the current definition,which has permitted operations to beconducted up to a distance of 50 milesfrom the nearest shoreline before comingwithin the definition of an extendedover-water operation, and it is reasonableto assume that operating experience willnot differ for helicopter operations con-ducted up to 50 miles from an off-shore

    heliport structure, as provided for in thoamendment.

    With respect to this amendment, Itwill be noted that two conditions mustbe satisfied in order for a helicopteroperation to become an "extended over-water operation." First, the operationmust be over water at a horizontal dis.tance of more than 50 nautical mile3from the nearest shoreline; and second,it must be more than 50 nautical mileifrom an off-shore heliport structure. Ac-cordingly, the operation of a helicopterdoes not constitute an extended over-water operation when It is being oper-ated within 50 nautical miles from thenearest shoreline, nor does It constitutesuch an operation when more than 50nautical miles from the nearest shore-line, if it is being operated within 50nautical miles of an off-shore heliportstructure.

    This amendment differs from the pro-posal by omitting the word "suitable" indescribing an "off-shore heliport struc-ture," to ensure consistency with .thedefinition of the term "heliport" as cur-rently prescribed in Part 1.

    In consideration of the foregoing, thedefinition of "extended over-water oper-ation" in § 1.1 of the Federal AviationRegulations is amended, effective April14, 1972, to read as follows:§ 1.1 General definitions,

    "Extended over-water operation"means-

    (1) With respect to aircraft otherthan helicopters, and operation overwater at a horizontal distance of morethan 50 nautical miles from the nearestshoreline; and

    (2) With respect to helicopters, anoperation over water at a horizontal dis-tance of more than 50 nautical milesfrom the nearest shoreline and more than50 nautical miles from an off-shore heli-port structufe.

    PART 71-DESIGNATION OF FEDERALAIRWAYS, AREA LOW ROUTES,CONTROLLED AIRSPACE, AND RE-PORTING POINTSDesignation of Transition Area

    On 3 ebruary 26, 1972, a notice of pro-posed rule making was published in theFEDERAL REGISTER (37 F.R. 4096), statingthat the Federal Aviation Administra-tion was considering an amendment toPart 71 of the Federal Aviation Regula-tions that would designate the McRae,Ga., transition area.

    [Docket No. R-72-150]

    PROJECT SELECTION SYSTEMS FOR- CERTAIN COMMUNITY DEVELOP-

    MENT PROGRAMSOn November 25, 1971, notice of rule

    making proposed the addition of newParts 511, 541, 551, and 561 to ChapterV of Title 24 of the Code of FederalRegulations (36 FR. 22590). Theseamendments, based on those proposals,provide the criteria by which the De-partment will evaluate applications forfunding under the Neighborhood Devel-opment Program, the Open Space LandProgram, the Neighborhood FacilitiesProgram, and the Public Facility LoansProgram. In addition, Part 551 super-sedes § 540.246, which sets forth projectselection criteria for the Open SpaceLand Program. Statements appearing insaid notice of proposed rule making arevalid only to the extent that said state-ments are included in the final Parts 511,541, 551, and 561 set forth below.

    The Department received some 65comments, a majority of which favoredadoption of the proposed regulations.Many of the comments focused on theweight given to specific criteria. Carefulconsideration has been given to thismatter as well as other pertinent sug-gestions. In response to the comments,the following principal changes havebeen adopted in the final regulations:

    Sections 511.1(b), 541.1(b), 551.1(b)and 561.1(b) have bven amplified to clar-ify procedures used by the Area OfficesIn applying these project selection sys-tems. Because there must be close coor-

    dination of the Community Developmentprojects covered by these regulationswith other Department programs, proj-ects involving new communities or suchother critical and innovative projectsas the Assistant Secretary for Commu-nity Development may determine areexcluded from those project selectionsystems.

    Sections 541.2, 551.2, and 561.2 nowinclude a specific definition of 'appli-cant" to prevent any implication thateligibility to apply for assistance underthe affected programs is limited by thedefinitions of "locality."

    Sections 511.4(d), 541.4(c), 551.4(a),and 561.4(c) are revised to include asprogram requisites acceptable assurancesof compiqance with the Uniform Reloca-tion Assistance and Real Property Ac-quisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C.4601) and the absence of any known im-pediment to meeting HUD's relocationrequirements.

    Sections 511.14, 541.12, 551.16, and561.18 ae revised to apply the same cri-teria (with regard to local equal em-ployment and entrepreneurial effort) toapplicants without previous program ex-perience as are used to evaluate appli-cants with previous program experience.

    In §§ 541.14, 551.2, and 561.20, to pre-vent ambiguity, a definition of the term"service area" is added and in § 511.16the term "service area" Is changed to"NDP area" as defined in § 511.2.

    In the Neighborhood DevelopmentProgram (NDP), § 511.4(f), the citationof FzDEPAL REGISTER publication of theHousing Production and MortgageCredit Project Selection is corrected toread: 37 F.R.. 203-9, January 7, 1972.Section 511.10(a) is changed to includeprojects which will add to the housingstock without displacement. In § 511.10a new item (9), Inadequate Air andWater Quality, is added to the list ofenvironmental deficiencies. Section511.12(a) (1) is revised to give credit,among other things, to effective carry-ing out of relocation activities whichinvolve displacement.

    In the Open Space Program, referenceito "Lega6 of Parks" have been deletedto avoid confusion. Section 541.8(o), thenumber of local regulatory measures re-quired to meet this criterion Is increasedfrom three to four; the wording of sub-paragraphs (5) and (6) Is revised forpurposes of clarification; and an addi-tional local regulatory measure Is addedin subparagraph (7). Section 541.10 (a)and (c) are revised to emphasize pre-ventive rather than curative factors.Section 541.10(e) is deleted to reflect thefact that predominantly Historic Pres-ervation projects are not covered by thisProject Selection Syttem.

    In the Neighborhood Facilities Pro-gram, § 551.4 is corrected to show fourprogram prerequisites. In § 551.10 ref-erence Is made to the latest tailabledecennial census data rather than to the1970 Census. Section 551.14(b) (1) is re-vised to give credit, among other things,to effective carrying out of relocationactivities which Involve displacement.

    In §§ 511.16(a) (1) and (2), 541.14(a)(1) and (2), 551.18(a) (1) and (2), and561.20(a) (1) and (2) points are de-creased to diminish emphasis on the me-dian income of the Jurisdiction and toincrease emphasis on Community De-velopment activities, §§ 511.22, 541.20,551.24, and 501.26.

    Sections 511.20(a), 541.18(a), 551.-22(a), and 561.24(a) are amplified to dis-tinguish between the locality of theapplicant and the Jurisdiction of the ap-plicant. This will insure that where theapplicant is a public body that does nothave jurisdiction with regard to hous-ing, the locality's record can be meas-ured.

    In the Public Facility Loans Program,in § 561.4, the citation concerning PartB, Urban Growth and New CommunityDevelopment Act of 1970 Is corrected.Section 561.6, Type of Project Is removedas a criteria for evaluating projects un-der this system, in conjunction with thechange made in § 561.1(b). Consequently,this section Is re-lettered, and § 561.10 Isreserved.

    Accordingly, Chapter V of Titlo 24 ofthe Code of Federal Regulatlons Isamended, effective on May 15, 1072, by(1) deleting § 540.246 of Part 540, and(2) by adding new Parts 511, 541, 551,and 561 to read as set forth below.
