Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700,
-700C, -800, and -900 Series Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes. This AD
requires replacement of the power control relays in the P91 and P92
power distribution panels for the fuel boost and override pumps with
new, improved relays having a ground fault interrupter (GFI) feature,
or installation and maintenance of universal fault interrupters (UFIs)
using a certain supplemental type certificate. This AD results from
fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer. We are issuing this
AD to prevent pump housing burn-through due to electrical arcing, which
could create a potential ignition source inside a fuel tank. This
condition, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in a
fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective September 22, 2010.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of September 22,
2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to
certain Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes.
That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on March 11, 2008 (73
FR 12910). That NPRM proposed to require replacement of the power
control relays in the P91 and P92 power distribution panels for the
fuel boost and override pumps with new, improved relays having a ground
fault interrupter (GFI) feature. That NPRM also proposed to require a
revision to the Airworthiness Limitations (AWLs) section of the
Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to incorporate AWL No. 28-AWL-
20.

Actions Since NPRM Was Issued

    To avoid including redundant requirements in this AD, we have
removed the proposed requirement to revise the AWL section of certain
maintenance documents to include new repetitive operational checks of
the ground fault interrupter (GFI) for all alternating current fuel
tank boost pumps to ensure continued functionality of the GFI circuit.
This AWL revision is already required by AD 2008-10-10 R1, Amendment
39-16164 (75 FR 1529, January 12, 2010), for certain Model 737-600, -
700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes with an original standard
airworthiness certificate or original export certificate issued before
March 31, 2006. Airplanes with a certificate issued on or after March
31, 2006, must already be compliant with the AWL because those
limitations were applicable as part of the airworthiness certification
of those airplanes. We have removed the AWL revision requirement from
this AD (specified in paragraph (g) of the NPRM), the related
requirement to obtain FAA approval for any alternative inspections or
inspection intervals (specified in paragraph (h) of the NPRM), and Note
1 of the NPRM. We have re-identified subsequent paragraphs accordingly.
    Boeing has issued Revision 1, dated May 28, 2009, to Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 737-28A1201. (The NPRM referred to Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, dated February 19, 2007.) We have revised
paragraphs (c) and (f) of this AD to reference Boeing Alert Service
Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision 1, dated May 28, 2009, and have added
new paragraph (g) of this AD to provide credit (with certain
provisions) for Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, dated
February 19, 2007. Revision 1 corrects the wiring configuration group
for some airplanes, adds and corrects some figures and references and
adds a resistance check between the GFI relay's mounting flange and a
point on the panel cross member of the P91 and P92 panels. Revision 1
also adds a resistance measurement for airplanes that have accomplished
the actions specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201,
dated February 19, 2007.
    Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision 1, dated May
28, 2009, refers to Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and
1151934-24-62, both Revision 5, both dated May 25, 2009, as additional
sources of guidance for accomplishing a resistance check between the
GFI relay's mounting flange and a point on the panel cross member of
the P91 and P92 panels. Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201,
Revision 1, dated May 28, 2009, refers to Honeywell Service Bulletin
1151932-24-61, Revision 5, dated May 25, 2009, as an additional source
of guidance for replacing the power control relays in the P91 power
distribution panel. Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision
1, dated May 28, 2009, also refers to Honeywell Service Bulletin
1151934-24-62, Revision 5, dated May 25, 2009, as an additional source
of guidance for replacing the power control relays in the P92 power
distribution panels.
    Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision 1, dated May
28, 2009, references an incorrect date for Revision 5 of Honeywell
Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and 1151934-24-62. Boeing Alert Service
Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision 1, dated May 28, 2009, states January
22, 2009, for Revision 5 of Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61
and 1151934-24-62. The correct date for Revision 5 of Honeywell Service
Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and 1151934-24-62 is May 25, 2009.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We considered the comments received from the eight commenters.

Support for the Proposed AD

    Ermelinda Villagomez, a private citizen, supports the NPRM.

Request To Revise References of Part Numbers

    Continental Airlines (CAL) requests that we prevent future part
number problems by removing reference to the part number of the panel
assemblies and adding reference to the GFI relay part number that is
installed. CAL states that there is a possibility that P91 and P92
panels can have internal components and wiring modified without the
FAA's knowledge or approval.
    We infer that CAL is requesting that references to the part numbers
be changed due to concerns about the need for AMOC requests. We agree
that references to the part numbers need to be changed from the panel
part numbers to the GFI relay part number. Otherwise, AMOC approval
would be needed for any change to the P91 and P92 panels. The NPRM did
not reference panel part numbers, but referenced Boeing Alert Service
Bulletin 737-28A1201, dated February 19, 2007, which did reference
those panel part numbers. Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201,
Revision 1, dated May 28, 2009, also references those panel part
numbers. We have revised paragraph (f) of this AD to reference the part
number of the GFI relay that is installed at certain relay positions in
the P91 and P92 panels.

Requests To Cite Later Revision of Honeywell Service Bulletins

    Boeing, CAL, SkyEurope Airlines, and Japan Airlines request that we
revise Note 2 of the NPRM to reference the current revision (Revision
4, dated March 25, 2008; or Revision 3, dated June 22, 2007;
respectively), of Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and
1151934-24-62. Boeing requests that we reference the latest revised
Honeywell service bulletins and notes that the latest revisions were
being submitted for FAA approval. Japan Airlines also notes that the
original issue, dated November 10, 2006, of the Honeywell Service
Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and 1151934-24-62, could not be applied to
actual airplanes due to a parts interference problem.
    We concur with the intent of the requests. Since the four
commenters submitted their comments, Honeywell has issued Revision 5,
dated May 25, 2009, of Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and
1151934-24-62. Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and 1151934-
24-62, both Revision 5, both dated May 25, 2009, were described
previously in the ``Actions Since NPRM Was Issued'' section of this AD.
We have revised Note 1 of this AD (Note 2 of the NPRM) to reference
Honeywell Service Bulletins 1151932-24-61 and 1151934-24-62, both
Revision 5, both dated May 25, 2009.

Request To Justify Need for Rulemaking

    AirTran Airways (AirTran) requests that we confirm that adequate
analysis was performed to justify this rulemaking. AirTran believes
that fuel pump arcing issues have been addressed by current rulemaking
and that there is no need to retrofit airplanes with GFI relays.
AirTran references AD 2002-19-52, Amendment 39-12900 (67 FR 61253,
September 30, 2002) (for all Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900
series airplanes; Model 747 series airplanes; and Model 757 series
airplanes), as an example of an AD issued against the fuel pump motor-
impeller assembly to ensure that the wire routing mitigates arcing.
AirTran also states that in order for an ignition source to enter the
fuel tank, it believes significant arcing would have to occur on one or
more phases of the circuit to burn through the motor-impeller assembly
and through the housing. AirTran asserts that an arc of this
significance would trip the currently installed circuit breakers
without the need for a GFI relay.
    We disagree with AirTran's assessment. We have examined the
underlying safety issues involved in fuel tank explosions as detailed
in the Discussion section in the NPRM. We have determined that an
additional layer of protection is needed to mitigate potential ignition
sources within the fuel tanks due to certain electrical failures
internal to the fuel pumps. Standard circuit breakers are not designed
to detect arcing events nor are they able to trip in time to protect
the fuel pumps under these arcing conditions. The primary function of
the circuit breakers is to protect the wiring. We have not changed the
AD in this regard.

Requests To Permit Installation of Supplemental Type Certificate (STC)
ST02076LA as a Means of Compliance

    TDG Aerospace, Southwest Airlines, CAL, and the Air Transport
Association (ATA) on behalf of its member American Airlines, request
that we allow the installation of TDG Aerospace STC ST02076LA as a
means of compliance for providing electrical fault protection for the
center override boost pumps. All four commenters state that the
universal fault interrupter (UFI) has been demonstrated and approved as
equivalent to or better than the protection provided by a standard GFI
relay.
    TDG Aerospace points out that UFIs have been approved as
alternative method of compliance (AMOCs) for paragraph (b) of AD 2002-
24-51, Amendment 39-12992 (68 FR 10, January 2, 2003) (for all Model
737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes; Model 747 series
airplanes; and Model 757 series airplanes), and paragraph (a) of AD
2001-08-24, Amendment 39-12201 (66 FR 20733, April 25, 2001) (for all
Model 737 series airplanes). TDG Aerospace adds that, for airplanes
with STC ST02076LA installed, mandating the installation of GFI relays
at center override boost pump positions R54 and R55 duplicates
protection, adds unnecessary costs, and could generate nuisance events
in the UFI system. TDG also points out that referencing STC ST02076LA
in the AD would save the FAA and operators time and effort spent on
coordinating multiple AMOC requests.
    We agree with the commenters' requests. We have evaluated the STC
and agree that installing and maintaining the TDG Aerospace UFI using
STC ST02076LA is an acceptable alternative means of addressing the
unsafe condition identified in this AD. We have revised paragraph (f)
of this AD to require replacement of the power control relays in
accordance with Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1201, Revision 1,
dated May 28, 2009, or installation of the STC.

Request To Extend Proposed Compliance Time for Installation

    The ATA, on behalf of its member American Airlines, requests that
we extend the compliance time for replacing the power control relays
from 60 months to 72 months. American Airlines states that this
extension would allow operators to align the modification with the
industry-standard heavy maintenance visit interval of 72 months.
American Airlines also points out that a 60-month compliance time will
increase out-of-service time due to unscheduled modifications.
    We disagree with this request. In developing an appropriate
compliance time for installing new fuel pump control GFI relays, we
considered the safety implications and the practical aspect of
accomplishing the installation within a period of time that corresponds
to the normal scheduled maintenance

for most affected operators. In consideration for these items, we have
determined that a 60-month compliance time will ensure an acceptable
level of safety and allow the installation to be done during scheduled
maintenance intervals for most affected operators. However, under the
provisions of paragraph (h) of this AD, we will consider requests for
approval of an AMOC if sufficient data are submitted to substantiate
that the request would provide an adequate level of safety. We have not
changed the AD in this regard.

Request To Reference Other Maintenance Procedures

    CAL requests that we revise the reference to Airworthiness
Limitation (AWL) 28-AWL-20. CAL notes that the maintenance
documentation for AWL 28-AWL-20 is too generic to show each specific
requirement as detailed in the airplane's center tank pump override
relay configuration.
    We disagree with CAL's assertion that AWL 28-AWL-20 is
insufficient. That AWL identifies a section of the airplane maintenance
manual (AMM) as a document that provides appropriate guidance for doing
GFI operational checks. However, to avoid including redundant
requirements in this AD, we have removed the proposed requirement to
revise the AWL section of certain maintenance documents to include AWL
28-AWL-20 (which would require repetitive operational checks of the GFI
for all alternating current fuel tank boost pumps to ensure continued
functionality of the GFI circuits). This AWL revision is already
required by AD 2008-10-10 R1, Amendment 39-16164, for certain Boeing
Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, and -900 series airplanes with an
original standard airworthiness certificate or original export
certificate issued before March 31, 2006. Airplanes with a certificate
issued on or after March 31, 2006, must already be compliant with the
AWL revision because those limitations were applicable as part of the
airworthiness certification of those airplanes. We have removed the AWL
revision requirement from this AD (which was specified in paragraph (g)
of the NPRM) and re-identified subsequent paragraphs.

Request To Clarify the Use of GFIs

    CAL questions the use of GFIs for protection against arcing
conditions identified in the NPRM. CAL contends that the use of arc
fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) is the appropriate device to protect
pumps from damage due to arcing. CAL states that its understanding of
the GFI is that GFIs are used to disconnect a circuit whenever it
detects that the current flow is not balanced. When a ground fault
above a prescribed threshold level and time duration is detected, the
GFI relay is tripped. CAL also states that electrical arcing (that the
NPRM actions are supposed to prevent) is a localized, high-energy event
and the GFI relay is not an AFCI that is designed to prevent fires by
detecting those electrical arcs and disconnecting power before the arc
starts a fire.
    We find that we need to clarify the use of the GFI relay. We have
determined that the GFI is an appropriate method to protect the fuel
pumps from other electrical faults, and from damage caused by
electrical arcs that result from wiring coming in contact with the
housing of the fuel pump. The proposed AFCI are susceptible to nuisance
tripping. These circuit breakers are not yet recommended for use in
airplane systems, especially systems that perform functions essential
to the safe flight and landing of the aircraft. However, under the
provisions of paragraph (h) of this AD, we will consider requests to
approve different solutions if sufficient data are submitted to
substantiate that the change would provide an acceptable level of
safety. We have not changed the AD in this regard.

Requests To Consider Other Methods of Compliance

    CAL is concerned that the FAA did not give enough attention to
solutions other than that specified in Boeing Alert Service Bulletin
737-28A1201, dated February 19, 2007. TDG Aerospace is curious why the
NPRM did not simply state the requirement for GFI at the six fuel pump
positions and then list the approved solutions for each position.
    We infer that CAL and TDG Aerospace request that we evaluate
solutions from other companies to address the unsafe condition
addressed by this AD. We evaluated the proposed solution from Boeing
and verified that it addresses the unsafe condition. In addition, as
explained under the previous header ``Requests to Permit Installation
of Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ST02076LA as a Means of
Compliance,'' we agree that installing and maintaining the TDG
Aerospace UFI in accordance with that STC is an acceptable means of
addressing the unsafe condition identified in this AD.
    We cannot address all possible solutions in an AD in a timely
manner. It is more practical from a workload and cost-effectiveness
standpoint to make the AD applicable generally to the affected fleet
and to deal with other possible solutions individually via the AMOC
process. Under the provisions of paragraph (h) of this AD, we will
consider requests to approve different solutions if sufficient data are
submitted to substantiate that the change would provide an acceptable
level of safety. We have not changed the AD in this regard.

Request To Correct a Typographical Error

    Boeing requests that we correct a typographical error. Boeing
states that paragraph (h) of the NPRM references paragraph (j) instead
of paragraph (i) of the NPRM, and points out that there is no paragraph
(j) in the NPRM.
    We agree. However, as explained previously, we have removed
paragraph (h) of the NPRM. No further change to the AD is necessary in
this regard.

Explanation of Change to Applicability

    We have revised this AD to identify the legal name of the
manufacturer as published in the most recent type certificate data
sheet for the affected airplane models.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
the AD with the changes described previously. We also determined that
these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or
increase the scope of the AD.

Explanation of Change to Costs of Compliance

    Since issuance of the NPRM, we have increased the labor rate used
in the Costs of Compliance from $80 per work-hour to $85 per work-hour.
The Costs of Compliance information, below, reflects this increase in
the specified hourly labor rate.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD would affect 754 products of U.S.
registry. The following table provides the estimated costs, at an
average labor rate of $85 per hour, for U.S. operators to comply with
this AD.

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

    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 DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979), and
    (3) 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.
    You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.

RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series
airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes (collectively
called A300-600 series airplanes); and Model A310 series airplanes.
This proposed AD was prompted by reports of cracking through the
honeycomb core closed with phenolic resin. This condition could result
in extended debonding and could adversely affect the structural
integrity of the rudder. This proposed AD would require inspecting to
determine the serial number of a certain rudder and replacing the
rudder with a new or serviceable rudder if necessary. We are proposing
this AD to prevent extended de-bonding, which could result in loss of
the rudder and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 13,
2012.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2012-0006, dated January 12, 2012 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    Following in-service findings reported by an operator, rudder
laboratory investigation revealed the existence of a crack through
the honeycomb core closed with phenolic resin. This condition if not
detected and corrected, could result in extended de-bonding, which
would adversely affect the structural integrity of the rudder. The
loss of the rudder could lead to degradation of the handling
qualities and reduces the controllability of the aeroplane.
    Further investigations identified a batch of five affected
rudders.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
[inspecting to determine the serial number (S/N) of a certain rudder
and] the replacement of the five affected rudders with [new or]
serviceable ones.

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

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This 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 the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI referenced
above. We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent
information and determined an unsafe condition exists and is likely to
exist or develop on other products of the same type design.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 170 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 1 work-hour per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $14,450, or $85 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions would
take about 10 work-hours and require parts costing $714,100, for a cost
of $714,950 per product. We have no way of determining the number of
products that may need these actions.

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 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

    1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

Airbus: Docket No. FAA-2012-1002; Directorate Identifier 2012-NM-
052-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by November 13, 2012.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to Airbus Model A300 B4-601, B4-603, B4-620, B4-
622, B4-605R, B4-622R, F4-605R, F4-622R, and C4-605R Variant F
airplanes; and Model A310-203, -204, -221, -222, -304, -322, -324,
and -325 airplanes; certificated in any category; all serial
numbers, except those airplanes on which Airbus modification 08827
has been incorporated in production.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 55, Stabilizers.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by reports of cracking through the
honeycomb core closed with phenolic resin. This condition could
result in extended debonding and could adversely affect the
structural integrity of the rudder. We are issuing this AD to
prevent extended de-bonding, which could result in loss of the
rudder and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD
performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions
have already been done.

(g) Inspection

    Within 3 months after the effective date of this AD, inspect the
rudder having part number (P/N) A55471500, to determine if the
rudder has serial number (S/N) HF1010, HF1036, HF1059, HF1061, or
HF1064. A review of airplane maintenance records is acceptable in
lieu of this inspection if the serial number of the rudder can be
conclusively determined from that review.

(h) Rudder Replacement

    If, during the inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD,
any rudder having S/N HF1010, HF1036, HF1059, HF1061, or HF1064 is
found, before further flight, replace the rudder with a new or
serviceable rudder, using a method approved by either the Manager,
International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA;
or the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) (or its delegated
agent).
    Note 1 to Paragraph (h) of this AD: Rudders having S/N HF1010,
HF1036, HF1059,

HF1061, and HF1064 were installed on airplanes having S/N 0295,
0297, 0321, 0355, and 0500; however, each rudder may have been moved
to another airplane.

(i) Parts Installation Prohibition

    As of the effective date of this AD, no person may install a
rudder P/N A55471500, having S/N HF1010, HF1036, HF1059, HF1061, or
HF1064, on any airplane.

(j) Other FAA AD Provisions

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

Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate principal
inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager of the
local flight standards district office/certificate holding district
office. The AMOC approval letter must specifically reference this
AD.
    (2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement in this AD to obtain
corrective actions from a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective actions are considered
FAA-approved if they are approved by the State of Design Authority
(or their delegated agent). You are required to assure the product
is airworthy before it is returned to service.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that a
proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA).

DATES: Fax written comments on the collection of information by October
22, 2014.

ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on the information collection are
received, OMB recommends that written comments be faxed to the Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs, OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer,
FAX:<PHONE_NUMBER>, or emailed to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
All comments should be identified with the OMB control number 0910-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.

Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on FDA
Service Delivery--(OMB Control Number 0910-0697)--Extension

    The information collection activity will garner qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration's commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback, FDA means information that provides
useful insight on perceptions and opinions, not statistical surveys
that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the
population of study. This feedback will provide insight into customer
or stakeholder perceptions; experiences and expectations; provide an
early warning of issues with service; or focus attention on areas where
communication, training, or changes in operations might improve
delivery of products or services. This information collection will
allow for ongoing collaborative and actionable communications among the
FDA and its customers and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to
contribute directly to the improvement of program management.
    Feedback collected under this generic clearance will provide useful
information, but it will not yield data that can be generalized to the
overall population. This type of generic clearance for qualitative
information will not be used for quantitative information collections
that are designed to yield reliably actionable results, such as
monitoring trends over time or documenting program performance. Such
data uses require more rigorous designs that address the following: The
target population to which the generalizations will be made, the
sampling frame, the sample design (including stratification and
clustering), the precision requirements or power calculations that
justify the proposed sample size, the expected response rate, the
methods for assessing potential non-response bias, the protocols for
data collection, and any testing procedures that were or will be
undertaken prior to fielding the study. Depending on the degree of
influence the results are likely to have, such collections may still be
eligible for submission for other generic mechanisms that are designed
to yield quantitative results.
    In the Federal Register of April 29, 2014 (79 FR 23980), FDA
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed
collection of information. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

    k. This application is not ready for environmental analysis at this

    l. The existing Hyrum City's Hydropower Project was initially
constructed in 1930-1931, after receiving an original license on
November 27, 1929. The project has been licensed since that time with
one amendment in 1977, and one renewal in 1981. The current license
expires on April 30, 2008. The run-of-river, base-load plant operates
on 85-cubic-foot-per-second of water diverted by a diversion dam
located in Blacksmith Fork Canyon. The 3,419-foot-by-passed reach is
not de-watered because the flows in the river exceeds the capacity of
the plant, and during low flows, Hyrum City operates the plant at less
than maximum flow to maintain a continuous flow throughout the river
channel for aesthetic enjoyment in the city park that adjoins the
powerhouse.
    The project includes the following constructed facilities: (1) A
15-foot-high, 70-foot-long earth-fill concrete core embankment to the
north, a 14-foot-high, 65-foot-long concrete spillway section, a 15-
foot-high, 125-foot-long earth-fill concrete core embankment to the
north which makes the total length of the dam approximately 260-foot-
long; (2) a 16-foot-high, 8-foot-wide concrete intake structure with a
20-foot-high, 8-foot-wide trash rack and fish ladder; (3) a 60-inch-
diameter concrete penstock inlet with head gate; (4) a 3,470-foot-long,
48-inch-diameter concrete penstock going into a 130-foot-long, 42-inch-
diameter steel penstock; (5) a 37-acre-foot de-silting pond; (6) a 26-
foot-wide, 39-foot-long, 20-foot-high brick powerhouse; (7) a 400-
kilowatt Leffel horizontal shaft scroll case turbine; (8) a 100-foot,
2.4-kV underground transmission line and; (9) appurtenant facilities.
    The average annual generation of the project is approximately
3,083,000 kilowatt-hours and there are no proposed changes to the
facilities or the current mode of operation at this time.
    m. A copy of the application is available for review at the
Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the

    n. Anyone may submit a protest or a motion to intervene in
accordance with the requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18
CFR 385.210, 385.211, and 385.214. In determining the appropriate
action to take, the Commission will consider all protests filed, but
