ATU Comment, page 5; UTU Comment, page 3. While the terms and conditions of the Special Warranty will adopt much of the May 1979 Special Section 13(c) Warranty, some additional changes are needed to reflect processing differences under the new Guidelines, to create a self-contained document, and to update the language. Most of the planned changes are largely procedural and were previously described in the NPRM, such as the establishment of procedures necessary to bind subrecipients, the elimination of the need for unions to become a party to the Special Warranty, the elimination of the Department's finding of noncompliance in the Other Than Urbanized program, and the adoption of a dispute resolution procedure that ends the Department's involvement in claims arbitration. In response to concerns that the new Special Warranty must not be less protective than its predecessor, the Department will ensure that the provisions of the new Special Warranty provide appropriate protections for Other Than Urbanized and OTRB grants and continue to satisfy all the requirements of the statute. | United States | 73 FR 47046 |

| design basis threat. | by the statement that the DBTs are based on a “determination as to the attacks against which a private security force can reasonably be expected to defend.” These commenters suggested that the Commissions's failure to articulate the DBT concept creates an ambiguity in establishing the division of responsibility between NRC licensees and the DOD, or DHS. Several commenters suggested that if the NRC does not require plants to defend against air attack because it is unreasonable for a private security force to be able to do so, then it has no choice but to federalize security by requesting that DHS or the military assume full responsibility for the protection of nuclear power facilities. | United States | 72 FR 12705 |

| design for construction | the stage when the energy efficiency and sustainability details (such as insulation levels, HVAC systems, water-using systems, etc.) are either explicitly determined or implicitly included in a project cost specification. Agencies that have already programmed or budgeted for building construction before the publication of today's rule likely have not included the costs of complying with the requirements of this rule. To apply the rule to these buildings would likely impose unanticipated costs that could compromise important functional aspects of the building or agency mission. Applying the rule to buildings for which design for construction begins one year after publication of the final rule helps ensure that agencies can anticipate and incorporate the cost of meeting this rule in the construction budget or make other necessary adjustments. | United States | 79 FR 61563 |

| design of the mercury-in-glass thermometer makes it relatively easy to detect a malfunction, including those caused by environmental conditions, because most are associated with a broken thermometer, separated column, or scale slippage. However, malfunction of other temperature-indicating devices may need to be detected by means other than observation. For example, a temperature-indicating device could be designed with a dual probe sensor that would enable detection of loss of accuracy of one of the probes when the probe readings do not agree. FDA recommends, but is not proposing to require, a dual probe design. FDA recognizes that specific design specifications for temperature-indicating devices may limit the flexibility of the regulation for current and future technologies | to detect a malfunction of a temperature-indicating device. We agree that a dual probe sensor is not the only design, mechanism, or process that may help detect temperature-indicating device failures. Therefore, this final rule does not require a dual probe design to detect malfunctions or failures of a temperature-indicating device. | United States | 76 FR 11891 |

| direct use | “utilization of geothermal resources for commercial, residential, agricultural, public facilities, or other energy needs other than the commercial production of electricity.” The definition of the term “direct use” in the final rule at 30 CFR 206.351 is essentially identical. Section 206.351 then defines the term “commercial production or generation of electricity” to include the electricity or energy that is reasonably required both to produce the resource and to convert geothermal energy into electrical energy for sale. This definition includes the generation of both plant parasitic electricity and electricity for lease operations, as well as other uses of resources for lease operations. Therefore, where the lessee of a Class II lease or Class III lease sells electricity commercially, use of resources for these purposes, by definition, does not constitute a direct use under the final rule. The resources therefore are not subject to direct use fees. | United States | 72 FR 24448 |

The ABR court plainly stated that the term may be ambiguous as applied to some situations, but not as applied to others. 208 F.3d at 1056, See also 75 FR 31887. The comment simply begs the question when it claims EPA is relying on an ambiguous meaning to claim discretion. EPA has no discretion in certain cases. For example, the Agency may not regulate under RCRA secondary materials recycled in a continuous industrial process. On the other hand, EPA may have to exercise discretion to determine whether particular materials are recycled in a continuous process and whether such materials recycled in other ways are solid wastes. Agency discretion applies to the application of the discard definition. | United States | 76 FR 15455 |

| duress | of compliance for this as a requirement.” Boeing suggests changing the requirement that a crewmember evaluate whether a person is under duress, to simply require identification of a person seeking access to the flightdeck. FAA rules already require any person seeking flightdeck access to be identified before admittance. Section 121.587(b) limits persons on the flightdeck to those eligible under § 121.547. In addition, air carriers already have procedures in place regarding how and when to open a flightdeck door. The concept of determining whether someone is under duress is already applied in current procedures and appears to be readily understood. Air carriers should use the FAA-approved procedures already in place to determine whether someone is under duress. Because duress remains a threat not fully accommodated by the existing requirement that the person seeking access to the flightdeck is authorized to enter, the requirement to check that a person is not under duress remains unchanged. | United States | 72 FR 45629 |
