SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54629; File No. SR-Amex-2006-88]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; American Stock Exchange LLC;
Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change Relating to Amendments to the
Exchange's Generic Listing Standards for Index-Linked Securities

October 19, 2006.
    Pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on September 20, 2006, the American Stock Exchange LLC (``Amex'' or
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II,
and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend to Section 107D(b) of the Amex
Company Guide to extend the maximum duration of index-linked securities
(``Index-Linked Securities'') from ten (10) years to thirty (30) years.
The text of the proposed rule change is available on the Amex's Web
site at http://www.amex.com, the Office of the Secretary of the Amex

and at the Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the Amex included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Amex has prepared summaries, set forth in Sections
A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    Pursuant to Section 107A of the Amex Company Guide, the Exchange
may approve for listing and trading securities that cannot be readily
categorized under the listing criteria for common and preferred
securities, bonds, debentures, or warrants.\3\ In February 2005, the
Commission approved the Exchange's proposal to add Section 107D to the
Amex Company Guide for the purpose of adopting generic listing
standards pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e) \4\ in connection with Index-Linked
Securities.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 27753 (March 1,
1990), 55 FR 8626 (March 8, 1990) (SR-Amex-89-29).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(e).
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 51258 (February 25,
2005), 70 FR 10700 (March 4, 2005) (SR-Amex-2005-001).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange states that Section 107D of the Amex Company Guide
currently sets forth eleven (11) criteria that the issue and the issuer
must meet in order to list and trade Index-Linked Securities at the
Exchange.\6\ One of the criteria the Exchange considers for the listing
and trading of Index-Linked Securities pursuant to 107D is that the
term of the issue must be a minimum term of one (1) year but not
greater than (10) years. The Exchange currently proposes to amend
Section 107D(b) to extend the duration of the term of the issue from
ten (10) years to thirty (30) years. The Exchange believes this
amendment to Section 107D is appropriate due to increased demand from
issuers to list and trade Index-Linked Securities that are greater than
ten (10) years in duration. In addition, the Exchange notes that
corporate bonds

and other fixed-income products have historically been issued with
terms of up to, or greater than, thirty (30) years.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Exchange may submit a rule filing pursuant to section
19(b)(2) of the Act to permit the listing and trading of index
linked securities that do not otherwise meet the generic listing
criteria set forth in Section 107D.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes expanding the duration for Index-Linked
Securities subject to generic listing standards in Section 107D of the
Company Guide will help to foster quote competition and promote
enhanced efficiency in the marketplace. Incorporating these guidelines
into the Exchange's generic listing standards for Index-Linked
Securities will allow Index-Linked Securities that satisfy the listing
standards to begin trading pursuant to Rule 19b-4(e), without
constituting a proposed rule change within the meaning of section 19(b)
of the Act and Rule 19b-4, for which notice and comment and Commission
approval is necessary.\7\ The Exchange's ability to rely on Rule 19b-
4(e) to list such Index-Linked Securities potentially reduces the time
frame for bringing these securities to the market, thereby promoting
competition and making such products available to investors more
quickly. The Exchange also notes that the Commission has approved
amendments to the generic listing standards for equity-linked notes
that removed the maximum term limits for those securities.\8\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with section 6 of the Act \9\ in general and furthers the objectives of
section 6(b)(5) \10\ in particular in that it is designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination
with persons engaged in facilitating transactions in securities, and to
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market and a national market system.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change does not impose
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

Commission Action

    Within 35 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may
designate up to 90 days of such date if it finds such longer period to
be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change, or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Viking Air Limited Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Viking Air Limited Models DHC-2 Mk. I, DHC-2 Mk. II, and DHC-2 Mk. III
airplanes. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing
airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of
another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an
aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as cracking
found in the wing rear spar web at the wing station where the flap
outboard hinge is attached. We are issuing this proposed AD to require
actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 23,
2017.

Discussion

    The Transport Canada, which is the aviation authority for Canada,
has issued AD Number CF-2017-17, dated May 18, 2017 (referred to after
this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Viking
Air Limited Models DHC-2 Mk. I, DHC-2 Mk. II, and DHC-2 Mk. III
airplanes and was based on mandatory continuing airworthiness
information originated by an aviation authority of another country. The
MCAI states:

    It was reported that a crack was found in the wing rear spar
web, part number C2W1007, at wing station 123.5 where the flap
outboard hinge is attached. An aileron hinge bracket has also been
found cracked. Viking Air Ltd. analysis shows that similar cracks
may develop on the wing rear spar web and flap/aileron hinge arm
support brackets at the other flap/aileron hinge attachment
locations.
    Undetected cracking of the wing rear spar or flap/aileron hinge
bracket may lead to the failure of the component with consequent
loss of aeroplane control.

    The MCAI requires inspecting the left-hand and right-hand wing rear
spar and the flap/aileron hinge air support brackets for cracks,
damage, or discrepancy and repairing or replacing any cracked, damaged,
or discrepant parts. You may examine the MCAI on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2017-
0867.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Viking Air Limited has issued DHC-2 Beaver Service Bulletin Number:
V2/0009, Revision A, dated February 10, 2017. The service information
describes procedures for inspecting the left-hand and right-hand wing
rear spars, the flap/aileron hinge brackets, and the exterior store
support bracket for cracks, damage, and discrepancies and specifies
repairing or replacing any cracked, damaged, or discrepant parts. This
service information is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section of this NPRM.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, they
have notified us of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and
service information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because
we evaluated all information and determined the unsafe condition exists
and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type
design.

Interim Action

    We consider this proposed AD interim action. The inspection report
required by this proposed AD allows us to obtain better information
into the nature, cause, and extent of the damage to the wing rear spars
and flap/aileron hinge arm support brackets and to develop final action
to address the unsafe condition. Once final action has been identified,
we may consider further rulemaking.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD will affect 140 products of U.S.
registry. We also estimate that it would take about 11work-hours per
product to comply with the basic inspection requirements of this
proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the basic cost of this proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $130,900, or $935 per product.
    In addition, the following is an estimate of possible necessary
follow-on replacement actions. We have no way of determining the number
of products that may need these actions.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid OMB control number. The control
number for the collection of information required by this AD is 2120-
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this AD has been detailed in
the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for
reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with
this AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden
and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA
at 800 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC 20591. ATTN: Information
Collection Clearance Officer, AES-2000.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to small airplanes and domestic
business jet transport airplanes to the Director of the Policy and
Innovation Division.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

2017-CE-021-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by October 23, 2017.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Viking Air Limited Models DHC-2 Mk. I, DHC-2
Mk. II, and DHC-2 Mk. III airplanes, all serial numbers,
certificated in any category.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 57: Wings.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness
information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another
country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation
product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as cracking found
in the wing rear spar web at the wing station (WS) where the flap
outboard hinge is attached. We are issuing this AD to detect and
correct cracks in the wing rear spars and the flap/aileron hinge arm
support brackets, which could cause these parts to fail. Failure of
the wing rear spars and the flap/aileron hinge arm support brackets
could result in loss of control.

 (f) Actions and Compliance

    Unless already done, do the actions in paragraphs (f)(1) through
(5) of this AD:
    (1) Within the next 400 hours time-in-service (TIS) after the
effective date of this AD, visually inspect the left-hand and right-
hand wing rear spar and flap/aileron hinge arm support brackets
following the Accomplishment Instructions of Viking DHC-2 Beaver
Service Bulletin Number: V2/0009, Revision A, dated February 10,
2017 (SB V2/0009, Revision A).

    (2) For airplanes with agricultural configuration installed (SOO
Mod 2/984), within the next 400 hours TIS after the effective date
of this AD, inspect the exterior store support arm bracket at wing
station (WS) 101.24 following the Accomplishment Instructions of SB
V2/0009, Revision A.
    (3) If any discrepancies are found during the inspections
required in paragraphs (f)(1) and (2) of this AD, before further
flight, repair or replace using a method approved by the Manager,
New York ACO Branch, FAA; or Transport Canada; or Viking Air
Limited's Transport Canada Design Organization Approval (DOA). If
approved by the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized
signature.
    (4) Within 30 days after completing the inspections required in
paragraphs (f)(1) and (2) of this AD, using the Operator Reply Form
on page 7 of SB V2/0009, Revision A, report the inspection results
to Viking Air Limited at the address specified in paragraph (h) of
this AD.
    (5) As of the effective date of this AD, do not install a wing
on any airplane affected by this AD unless it has been inspected as
specified in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD and paragraph (f)(2) of
this AD, as applicable, and is found free of any discrepancies.

(g) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, New
York ACO Branch, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this
AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send

to obtain corrective actions from a manufacturer, the action must be
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, New York ACO
Branch, FAA; or Transport Canada; or Viking Air Limited's Transport
Canada Design Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by the DOA,
the approval must include the DOA-authorized signature.
    (3) Reporting Requirements: For any reporting requirement in
this AD, a federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person
is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a
penalty for failure to comply with a collection of information
subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless

Summary of Meeting

	This meeting was requested by the Rodenticide Registrants Task Force to
discuss the information the RRTF submitted to EPA on January 25, 2008.
This information (available in the docket at
EPA-HQ-OPP-2006-0955-0719)-xxxx) included the following:

data documenting the extent of rodent infestation in the United States;

scientific literature on resistance;

information about behavioral patterns of house mice;

draft consumer label;

draft label for use in and adjacent to agricultural buildings; and

proposed performance-based standard for rodenticide bait product
packaging.

The proposed labels were not formally submitted to the Agency as label
amendment requests.  The labels were provided as an example of how the
RRTF believes that rodenticide labels should be revised to decrease
secondary exposures to non-target wildlife.  These changes include
adding precautionary language, use limitations, and warnings to raise
awareness about the potential risks.  The RRTF also proposed reducing
the amount of bait in each bait placement and also labeling all
residential use products intended for “over-the-counter” sale as
indoor-use-only.

	The RRTF used the resistance data to argue that homeowners need access
to second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide baits because of their
ability to kill in a  single night’s feeding, and that
first-generation products would not provide sufficient control.

The RRTF discussed market research (focus groups or attitude and usage
studies) as a possible metric for evaluating the effectiveness of new
labeling in changing consumer behavior in such a way as to minimize the
effects on using rodenticides on non-target wildlife.

During the meeting, EPA outlined its current thinking regarding bait
stations for products sold “over the counter.”  EPA also reiterated
its interest in proposals for research or monitoring that would measure
the success of mitigation measures in reducing secondary wildlife
exposure to rodenticides.

[Release No. 34-72657; File No. SR-NSCC-2014-07]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; National Securities Clearing
Corporation; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change To Implement a New
Scorecard Feature to the Mutual Fund Profile Service

July 23, 2014.
    On May 30, 2014, National Securities Clearing Corporation
(``NSCC'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change SR-NSCC-2014-07 pursuant to
Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\
and Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\2\ The proposed rule change was published
for comment in the Federal Register on June 12, 2014.\3\ The Commission
did not receive any comments on the proposed rule change. This order
approves the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72344 (June 6, 2014), 79
FR 33793 (June 12, 2014) (SR-NSCC-2014-07) (``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Description

    NSCC is adding a section to Rule 52.D of its Rules & Procedures \4\
to implement a new scorecard feature to its Mutual Fund Profile Service
(``MFPS''). The purpose of the new scorecard feature is to encourage
more reliable data in MFPS.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Rule 52.D is titled, ``Mutual Fund Profile Services.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    MFPS is a data repository that provides members with a way of
transmitting and receiving information about funds and other pooled
investment vehicles (``Funds'').\5\ MFPS includes a database, the
``security issue profile database,'' which contains Fund information,
including, security ID number, security name, fee structure, investment
objectives, breakpoint schedule data, and blue sky eligibility
(collectively, ``Security Issue Data'').\6\ Generally, Fund members
populate the database (``Data Providers'') \7\ and the Funds'
distribution partners receive and use the information in the database
(``Data Receivers'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 37171 (May 8, 1996),
61 FR 24343 (May 14, 1996) (SR-NSCC-96-04) (establishing MFPS);
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 40614 (October 28, 1998), 63 FR
59615 (November 4, 1998) (SR-NSCC-98-09) (increasing the information
available on MFPS); Securities Exchange Act Release No. 59321
(January 30, 2009), 74 FR 6933 (February 11, 2009) (SR-NSCC-2008-08)
(adding an agreement that requires fund members to have taken
reasonable steps to validate the accuracy of the data they submit to
the MFPS).
    \6\ See Notice, supra note 3, 79 FR at 33793.
    \7\ Data Providers also include a Fund's principal underwriter
or other entities authorized to process transactions on behalf of
the Funds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Over the last several months, Data Receivers have expressed concern
to NSCC that the Security Issue Data appears to be unreliable because
of certain discrepancies. For example, the Security Issue Data does not
always match information in the Data Providers' public filings. As a
result, Data Receivers requested that NSCC implement a mechanism to
encourage Data Providers to provide more reliable Security Issue Data.
    To respond to these concerns and encourage Data Providers to
provide more reliable data, NSCC is amending Rule 52.D of its Rules &
Procedures \8\ to implement a new scorecard feature to MFPS. NSCC will
score each Data Provider based on the types and number of discrepancies
between MFPS data and other information, such as, for example, the Data
Provider's public filings (``Discrepancies''). NSCC will share this
score with both the Data Providers and Data Receivers through a
scorecard, which NSCC will distribute regularly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Rule 52.D is titled ``Mutual Fund Profile Services.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NSCC will score Data Providers in the following ways. NSCC will
issue a perfect score to a Data Provider who either has no
Discrepancies or who addressed all of its Discrepancies and will reduce
a score if a Data Provider fails to take action on its Discrepancies.
NSCC will regularly recalculate both the Data Providers' score as well
as an industry average score as new Discrepancies are identified or
addressed.
    Scorecards distributed to Data Providers will contain: (i) The Data
Provider's score; (ii) the Data Provider's number of Discrepancies by
category; and (iii) the combined average score of all Data Providers.
Data Providers will not see individual, numerical scores issued to
other Data Providers nor other Data Providers' Discrepancies.
    Scorecards distributed to Data Receivers will contain: (i) Each
Data Provider's score; (ii) each Data Provider's number of
Discrepancies by category; and (iii) the combined average score of all
Data Providers.
    NSCC's rule will provide that NSCC makes no representation or
warranty with respect to the value or usefulness of any score or
scorecard, nor will NSCC be subject to any damages or liabilities
whatsoever with respect to any person's use of or reliance upon any
score or scorecard. According to NSCC, it is including this information
because the scores are based solely on action or inaction of Data
Providers.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Notice, supra note 3, 79 FR at 33793-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, NSCC's rule will state that all information contained
in the scorecards is copyrighted and any form of copying, other than
for each NSCC member's personal reference, without the express written
permission of NSCC, is prohibited, and further distribution or
redistribution of the scorecard or any information contained therein by
any means or in any manner is strictly prohibited. According to NSCC,
it is including the information because the scorecards are intended
solely for members' use and are not intended to be made public.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Notice, supra note 3, 79 FR at 33794.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Discussion

    Section 19(b)(2)(C) of the Act \11\ directs the Commission to
approve a proposed rule change of a self-regulatory organization if it
finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements
of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to such
organization.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(C).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent
with Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act,\12\ which requires that the rules
of a clearing agency be designed to, in part, foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in the clearance and settlement of
securities transactions. NSCC's proposed rule is designed to foster
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions because it is designed to
encourage reliable and accurate data about securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Conclusion

    On the basis of the foregoing, the Commission finds that the
proposal is consistent with the requirements of the Act and in
particular with the requirements of Section 17A of the Act \13\ and the
rules and regulations thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has
considered the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition,
and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,
that the proposed rule change (SR-NSCC-2014-07) be, and it hereby is,
approved.

For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant
to delegated authority.\14\

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440)
airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of jamming/malfunctioning of
the left-hand engine thrust control mechanism. This AD requires
modifying the left-hand engine upper core-cowl. We are issuing this AD
to prevent jamming/malfunctioning of the left-hand engine thrust
control mechanism, which could lead to loss of control of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective September 25, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of September
25, 2012.

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov or in person at the U.S. Department of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products.
That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on April 6, 2012 (77 FR
20746). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    There have been several reported incidents of jamming/
malfunctioning of the left hand (L/H) engine thrust control
mechanism on the affected aeroplanes. The investigation has shown
that an improperly stowed or dislodged upper core-cowl-door Hold
Open Rod, can impede a Fuel Control Unit (FCU) function by
obstructing the movement of the FCU actuating lever arm, hence
rendering the L/H engine thrust control inoperable.
    Due to the engine's orientation, the subject FCU fouling is
limited only to the L/H engine installation on the affected twin
engine powered aeroplanes; however the potential hazard of any in-
flight engine shut down caused by jammed engine fuel control lever
is a safety concern that warrants mitigating action.
    In order to help alleviate the possibility of an in-flight
engine shut down due to the subject fouling of the FCU lever by the
core-cowl-door Hold Open Rod, Bombardier has issued a Service
Bulletin (SB) to install a new bracket at the L/H engine upper core-
cowl-door location. This [Canadian] directive is issued to mandate
the incorporation of the SB 601R-71-033 on the affected aeroplanes.

    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (77 FR 20746, April 6,
2012) or on the determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed--except for
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (77 FR 20746, April 6, 2012) for correcting the unsafe condition;
and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (77 FR 20746, April 6, 2012).

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 601 products of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take about 2 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $54 per product.
Where the service information lists required parts costs that are
covered under warranty, we have assumed that there will be no charge
for these parts. As we do not control warranty coverage for affected
parties, some parties may incur costs higher than estimated here. Based
on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD to the U.S. operators
to be $134,624, or $224 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:

    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket.

Examining the AD Docket

9648 Federal Register / Vol. 68, No. 40 / Friday, February 28, 2003 / Notices may make appropriate, neutral disclaimers to clarify that such speech ( whether religious or nonreligious) is the speaker's and not the school's.

Baccalaureate Ceremonies School officials may not mandate or organize religious ceremonies. However, if a school makes its facilities and related services available to other private groups, it must make its facilities and services available on the same terms to organizers of privately sponsored religious baccalaureate ceremonies. In addition, a school may disclaim official endorsement of events sponsored by private groups, provided it does so in a manner that neither favors nor disfavors groups that meet to engage in prayer or religious speech.

Footnotes 1 The relevant portions of the First Amendment provide: `` Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech * * *'' U. S. Const. amend. I. The Supreme Court has held that the Fourteenth Amendment makes these provisions applicable to all levels of government   federal, state, and local   and to all types of governmental policies and activities. See Everson v. Board of Educ., 330 U. S. 1 ( 1947); Cantwell v. Connecticut, 310 U. S. 296 ( 1940). 2 See, e. g., Everson, 330 U. S. at 18 ( the First Amendment `` requires the state to be a neutral in its relations with groups of religious believers and non believers; it does not require the state to be their adversary. State power is no more to be used so as to handicap religions than it is to favor them''); Good News Club v. Milford Cent. Sch., 533 U. S. 98 ( 2001). 3 Santa Fe Indep. Sch. Dist. v. Doe, 530 U. S. 290, 302 ( 2000) ( quoting Board of Educ. v. Mergens, 496 U. S. 226, 250 ( 1990) ( plurality opinion)); accord Rosenberger v. Rector of Univ. of Virginia, 515 U. S. 819, 841 ( 1995). 4 Engel v. Vitale, 370 U. S. 421 ( 1962) ( invalidating state laws directing the use of prayer in public schools); School Dist. of Abington Twp. v. Schempp, 374 U. S. 203 ( 1963) ( invalidating state laws and policies requiring public schools to begin the school day with Bible readings and prayer); Mergens, 496 U. S. at 252 ( plurality opinion) ( explaining that `` a school may not itself lead or direct a religious club''). The Supreme Court has also held, however, that the study of the Bible or of religion, when presented objectively as part of a secular program of education ( e. g., in history or literature classes), is consistent with the First Amendment. See Schempp, 374 U. S. at 225. 5 See Lee v. Weisman, 505 U. S. 577, 599 ( 1992); see also Wallace v. Jaffree, 472 U. S. 38 ( 1985). 6 See Weisman, 505 U. S. at 587. 7 505 U. S. 577 ( 1992). 8 530 U. S. 290 ( 2000). 9 Tinker v. Des Moines Indep. Community Sch. Dist., 393 U. S. 503, 506 ( 1969). 10 Capitol Square Review & Advisory Bd. v. Pinette, 515 U. S. 753, 760 ( 1995). 11 Santa Fe, 530 U. S. at 302 ( explaining that `` not every message'' that is `` authorized by a government policy and take[ s] place on government property at governmentsponsored school related events'' is `` the government's own''). 12 Santa Fe, 530 U. S. at 313. 13 For example, the First Amendment permits public school officials to review student speeches for vulgarity, lewdness, or sexually explicit language. Bethel Sch. Dist. v. Fraser, 478 U. S. 675, 683   86 ( 1986). Without more, however, such review does not make student speech attributable to the state. 14 Rosenberger v. Rector of Univ. of Virginia, 515 U. S. 819 ( 1995); Board of Educ. v. Mergens, 496 U. S. 226 ( 1990); Good News Club v. Milford Cent. Sch., 533 U. S. 98 ( 2001); Lamb's Chapel v. Center Moriches Union Free Sch. Dist., 508 U. S. 384 ( 1993); Widmar v. Vincent, 454 U. S. 263 ( 1981); Santa Fe, 530 U. S. at 304 n. 15. In addition, in circumstances where students are entitled to pray, public schools may not restrict or censor their prayers on the ground that they might be deemed `` too religious'' to others. The Establishment Clause prohibits state officials from making judgments about what constitutes an appropriate prayer, and from favoring or disfavoring certain types of prayers   be they `` nonsectarian'' and `` nonproselytizing'' or the opposite   over others. See Engel v. Vitale, 370 U. S. 421, 429   30 ( 1962) ( explaining that `` one of the greatest dangers to the freedom of the individual to worship in his own way lay in the Government's placing its official stamp of approval upon one particular kind of prayer or one particular form of religious services,'' that `` neither the power nor the prestige'' of state officials may `` be used to control, support or influence the kinds of prayer the American people can say,'' and that the state is `` without power to prescribe by law any particular form of prayer''); Weisman, 505 U. S. at 594. 15 Santa Fe, 530 U. S. at 302; Mergens, 496 U. S. at 248   50. 16 Mergens, 496 U. S. at 250 ( plurality opinion); id. at 260   61 ( Kennedy, J., concurring in part and in judgment). 17 Rosenberger, 515 U. S. at 845   46; Mergens, 496 U.

They must also submit reports on initial performance test results, monitoring system performance, and excess emissions. Records must be maintained of startups, shutdowns, malfunctions, and periods when the continuous monitoring system is inoperative. The required notifications are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the standard. Performance test reports are needed as these are the Agency's record of a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and serve as a record of the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. The monitoring and excess emissions reports ( which are semiannual) are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations. The information collected from record keeping and reporting requirements are used for targeting inspections, and for other uses in compliance and enforcement programs. Responses to this information collection are deemed to be mandatory, per section 114( a) of the Clean Air Act. The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined not to be private. However, any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B   Confidentiality of Business Information ( see 40 CFR part 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979). An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are identified on the form and/ or instrument, if applicable. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 46.6 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Respondents/ Affected Entities: Owners or operators of fossil fuel fired steam generating units subject to Subpart D. Estimated Number of Respondents: 660. Frequency of Response: Semiannual. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 61,545 hours. Estimated Total Capital and Operations & Maintenance ( O & M) Annual Cost: $ 9,900,000, which includes $ 0 annualized capital/ startup costs and $ 9,900,000 annual O & M costs. Changes in Estimates: There is a decrease of hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to a correction in the frequency of reporting from quarterly to semiannual.
