This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 09/21/2020 and available online at federalregister.gov/d/2020-20567, and on govinfo.gov 4910-13 DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 71 [Docket No. FAA-2020-0823; Airspace Docket No. 20-AAL-49] RIN 2120-AA66 Proposed Technical Amendment to Separate Terminal Airspace Areas from Norton Sound Low, Woody Island Low, Control 1234L, and Control 1487L Offshore Airspace Areas; Alaska AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). SUMMARY: This action proposes to amend the following Offshore Airspace Areas in Alaska: Norton Sound Low, Woody Island Low, Control 1234L, and Control 1487L. The FAA found an error with the Offshore Airspace Legal Descriptions containing airspace descriptions not related to the need to apply IFR en route Air Traffic Control services in international airspace. This action would correct that error by removing terminal airspace, airspace associated with geographic coordinates, and airspace associated with NAVAIDs from the Offshore Airspace legal descriptions. DATES: Comments must be received on or before [INSERT DATE 45 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. ADDRESSES: Send comments on this proposal to the U.S. Department of Transportation, Docket Operations, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, West Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, Washington, D.C. 20590; telephone: 1(800) 647-5527, or (202) 366-9826. You must identify FAA Docket No. FAA-2020-0823; Airspace Docket No. 20-AAL-49 at the beginning of your comments. You may also submit comments through the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov.

Chapter 2 Darkness
Chapter 2 Darkness f all the disconcerting statements in Veniaminov’s great work on the eastern Aleutians—and there are several—few are O more arresting than his assertion that elderly Unanga{ told of famous shamans who, long before the first Russians appeared, said white people would arrive from the sea and afterwards all Unanga{ would come to resemble them and would adopt their customs. These elders also reported that at the time of the Russian arrival the shamans began prophesizing that “in the east, over their islands,” they saw “a brilliant dawn or a great light” inhabited by “many people resembling the newcomers, while in the lower world, of the people whom they had seen there before, very few remained” and “impenetrable darkness set in.”1 This darkness surrounds the earliest history of Biorka, Kashega, and Makushin. Nick Galaktionoff joked that when people asked him where Aleuts came from, he would tell them, “Tomorrow I come from Makushin!” By “tomorrow” he meant “yesterday” or “that time before.” “I was right,” he laughed, “‘cause I was born there.”2 And yet Nick had an older origin story that began when Unanga{ lived on the mainland, a time when ice covered much of the coastline.3 Food became scarce and animals began preying on villages, taking food and attacking people. The chiefs spoke with their people and explained that they would have to go across the ice. They covered the bottoms of their open skin boats with seal skin that still had the fur on it, and this smooth surface allowed the heavily laden boats to be towed.

Noaa Coastal Mapping Program Project Completion Report
NOAA COASTAL MAPPING PROGRAM PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT PROJECT AK0502 Western Krenitzin Islands and Northeast Unalaska Island Aleutian Islands, Alaska Introduction Coastal Mapping Program (CMP) Project AK0502 provides coastal zone mapping data of the area around the Krenitzin Islands. This area includes Akun Island, Akun Bay, Tangik Island, Poa Island, Akutan Island, Akutan Bay, Akutan Pass, Unaiga Island, Unaiga Pass, Egg Island, Sedanka Island, Udagak Strait and Unalaska Island from Cape Cheerful through Unalaska Bay and Dutch Harbor to Beaver Inlet, almost to Kayak Cape. The digital cartographic feature file (DCFF) may be used in support of the NOAA Nautical Charting Program (NCP) as well as geographic information systems (GIS) for a variety of coastal zone management applications. Project Design This project was designed per a request from the NOAA Hydrographic Surveys Division (HSD) of the Office of Coast Survey, NOAA, for GIS data in support of HSD operations. Based on an analysis of project requirements and results of a source data search, it was determined that CMP procedures for multiple source projects would apply for this project. Available source data deemed adequate for successful completion of this project included sources acquired between January 2000 and April 2002. Field Operations Routine CMP field operations did not apply for this project based on the origin of the project source data. Aerotriangulation The aerotriangulation task was accomplished by Western Air Maps, Inc. personnel in mid October, 2005. The image files were imported into SOCET SET, Version 5.0, using the DataThruWay, Version 5.0 software. The import process also converted the stored and compressed files to a recognized native SOCET SET format (NITF 2.0) and included supporting data extension files consisting of previously measured sensor model parameters.

Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.
