action to approve portions of submissions from Indiana addressing EPA's
requirements for its new source review (NSR) and prevention of
significant deterioration (PSD) program with respect to particulate
matter smaller than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5) and ozone
precursors. This rulemaking will finalize portions of two proposed

rulemaking actions, one published in the Federal Register on August 19,
2013 and another published on November 1, 2013.

I. What is the background for this final approval?

    On July 12, 2012, the Indiana Department of Environmental
Management (IDEM) submitted revisions to Indiana's State Implementation
Plan (SIP) intended to address ozone and PM2.5 NSR and PSD
requirements. IDEM also submitted a supplemental revision to its SIP on
December 12, 2012, addressing additional PM2.5 NSR and PSD
requirements. Indiana's SIP is contained within title 326 of the
Indiana Administrative Code (IAC).
    On August 19, 2013, EPA proposed to approve some portions of the
submissions as revisions to Indiana's SIP (see 78 FR 50360). The public
comment period for this proposed approval ended on September 18, 2013.
EPA received comments on the August 19, 2013, proposed rulemaking.
    On November 1, 2013, EPA proposed to approve additional portions of
the submissions as revisions to Indiana's SIP (see 78 FR 65590). The
public comment period for the proposed approval ended on December 2,
2013. No comments were received for the November 1, 2013, proposed
rulemaking.
    In today's rulemaking, EPA finalizes portions of its August 19,
2013, and November 1, 2013, proposed approval of Indiana's July 12,
2012, and December 12, 2012, submissions from IDEM. These were intended
to address requirements related to EPA's 2010 final rule entitled
``Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) for Particulate Matter
Less than 2.5 Micrometers (PM2.5)--Increments, Significant
Impact Levels (SILs), and Significant Monitoring Concentration (SMC)''
(the 2010 NSR Rule) \1\ with respect to the major source baseline date,
trigger date, definition of baseline area, and the class I variance.
EPA will also finalize its approval of portions of IDEM's submission
addressing nitrogen oxide (NOX) ozone precursor requirements
obligated by EPA's 2005 final rule entitled ``Final Rule to Implement
the 8-hour Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard--Phase 2''.\2\

    \2\ 70 FR 71612 (November 29, 2005).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    EPA is also finalizing its approval of some portions of Indiana's
submission as it relates to nonattainment NSR. In particular, EPA is
approving the revisions to Indiana's SIP intended to address the
requirements obligated by EPA's 2008 final rule entitled
``Implementation of New Source Review (NSR) Program for Particulate
Matter Less than 2.5 Micrometers (PM2.5)'' (the 2008 NSR
Rule) \3\ with respect to nonattainment NSR program definitions of
``regulated NSR pollutant'' and ``significant''. These definitions were
submitted in accordance with title I, part D, subpart 1 of the Clean
Air Act (CAA) as opposed to title I, part D, subpart 4 of the CAA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 73 FR 28321 (May 16, 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    EPA will be taking no action on the revisions requesting changes to
permitting exemptions and Indiana's title V program. EPA will also be
taking no action on the revisions incorporating PM2.5 PSD
increments due to an adverse comment EPA received on the August 19,
2013, proposed rulemaking.
    The following sections will describe in more detail the action EPA
is taking on each of Indiana's requests.

II. What is EPA approving with this final action?

    For the reasons discussed in the November 1, 2013, proposed
rulemaking (see 78 FR 65590), EPA is finalizing its approval for the
following revisions to Indiana's SIP:
    (i) The corrected SIP citation for ozone ambient air quality data
at 326 IAC 2-2-4(b)(2)(A)(vi);
    (ii) The revised requirements allowing the submission of ozone
post-approval monitoring data for both volatile organic compounds (VOC)
and NOX at 326 IAC 2-2-4(c)(4);
    (iii) The addition of the PM2.5 class I variance at 326
IAC 2-2-14(e); and
    (iv) The revised submission requirements to include
PM2.5 requirements as part of the petition for alternate
opacity limits at 326 IAC 5-1-5(b)(1)(E).
    EPA is also finalizing approval of portions of submissions from
IDEM intended to address requirements related to the 2010 NSR Rule. On
August 19, 2013, EPA published a rulemaking proposing approval of 326
IAC 2-2-1(f)(1), 326 IAC 2-2-1(ee)(3), and 326 IAC 2-2-1(gg)(1)(C) (see
78 FR 50360). This action was independent of the November 1, 2013,
proposed rulemaking (see 78 FR 65590), where EPA proposed approval of
the identical provisions. Therefore, for the reasons discussed in both
the August 19, 2013, and November 1, 2013, proposed rulemakings, EPA is
finalizing its approval for the following revisions to Indiana's SIP:
    (i) The revision to the definition of ``baseline area'' at 326 IAC
2-2-1(f)(1);
    (ii) The revision to the definition of ``major source baseline
date'' at 326 IAC 2-2-1(ee)(3); and
    (iii) The addition of the PM2.5 trigger date to the
definition of ``minor source baseline date'' at 326 IAC 2-2-
1(gg)(1)(C).
    To clarify, today's final approval of 326 IAC 2-2-1(f)(1), 326 IAC
2-2-1(ee)(3), and 326 IAC 2-2-1(gg)(1)(C) serves as a final action for
both the August 19, 2013, and November 1, 2013, proposed rulemakings.

III. Why is EPA approving changes to Indiana's nonattainment new source
review program?

    On January 4, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit, in Natural Resources Defense Council v. EPA \4\
issued a decision that remanded the EPA's 2007 and 2008 rules
implementing the 1997 PM2.5 National Ambient Air Quality
Standards (NAAQS). Relevant here, the 2008 NSR Rule promulgated NSR
requirements for implementation of PM2.5 in both
nonattainment areas and attainment/unclassifiable areas. The Court
found that EPA erred in implementing the PM2.5 NAAQS in
these rules solely pursuant to the general implementation provisions of
subpart 1 of part D of title I of the CAA, rather than pursuant to the
additional implementation provisions specific to particulate matter
nonattainment areas in subpart 4. The Court ordered the EPA to
``repromulgate these rules pursuant to Subpart 4 consistent with this
opinion.'' Id. at 437.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 706 F.3d 428 (D.C. Cir. 2013).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On April 25, 2014, the Administrator signed a final rulemaking that
begins to address the remand (see http://www.epa.gov/airquality/particlepollution/actions.html). Upon its effective date, the final
rule classifies all existing PM2.5 nonattainment areas as
``Moderate'' nonattainment areas and sets a deadline of December 31,
2014, for states to submit any SIP submissions, including nonattainment
NSR SIPs, that may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of subpart
4, part D, title I of the CAA with respect to PM2.5
nonattainment areas.
    In a separate rulemaking process that will follow the April 2014
rule, EPA is evaluating the requirements of subpart 4 as they pertain
to nonattainment NSR for PM2.5 emissions. In particular,
subpart 4 includes section 189(e) of the CAA, which requires the
control of major stationary sources of PM10 precursors
``except where the Administrator determines that such sources do not
contribute significantly to PM10 levels which exceed the
standard in the area.'' Under the court's decision in NRDC, section
189(e) of the CAA also applies to PM2.5.
    As discussed in the proposed rulemaking for this action, IDEM's SIP
submission included revisions to two definitions in Indiana's
nonattainment NSR program. The revised definition of ``regulated NSR
pollutant'' at 326 IAC 2-3-1(mm)(3) identifies precursors to both ozone
and PM2.5 in nonattainment areas. With respect to
PM2.5, the revised definition of ``regulated NSR pollutant''
at 326 IAC 2-3-1(mm)(3) identifies sulfur dioxide (SO2) and
NOX as regulated PM2.5 precursors while VOCs and
ammonia are not regulated PM2.5 precursors in
PM2.5 nonattainment areas in the state. The revised
definition of ``significant'' at 326 IAC 2-3-1(pp) adds significant
emission rates for direct PM2.5 and for SO2 and
NOX as PM2.5 precursors. These revisions,
although consistent with the 2008 NSR Rule as developed consistent with
subpart 1 of the CAA, may not contain the elements necessary to satisfy
the CAA requirements when evaluated under the subpart 4 statutory
requirements. In particular, Indiana's submission does not include
regulation of VOCs and ammonia as PM2.5 precursors, nor does
it include a demonstration consistent with section 189(e) showing that
major sources of those precursor pollutants would not contribute
significantly to PM2.5 levels exceeding the standard in the
area. For these reasons, EPA cannot conclude at this time that this
part of Indiana's nonattainment NSR submission satisfies all of the
requirements of subpart 4 as they pertain to PM2.5
nonattainment NSR permitting.
    Although the revisions to Indiana's nonattainment NSR rule may not
contain all of the necessary elements to satisfy the CAA requirements
when evaluated under the subpart 4 provisions, the revisions themselves
represent a strengthening of the currently-approved Indiana SIP which
does not address PM2.5 at all. As a result of the April 25,
2014, final rule, IDEM will have until December 31, 2014, to make any
additional submission necessary to address the requirements of subpart
4, including addressing the PM2.5 precursors of VOC and
ammonia. For these reasons, EPA is approving the nonattainment NSR
revisions at 326 IAC 2-3-1(mm)(3) and 326 IAC 2-3-1(pp) without listing
as a deficiency at this time the absence of either the regulation or
evaluation of VOCs and ammonia as PM2.5 precursors.

IV. Why is EPA taking no action on portions of Indiana's request?

    EPA is taking no action with respect to the PSD increment revision
at 326 IAC 2-2-6(b). In EPA's August 19, 2013 rulemaking, we proposed
to approve revisions to Indiana's PSD increment at 326 IAC 2-2-6(b).
During the comment period for the August 19, 2013, proposed rulemaking,
EPA received an adverse comment regarding the PSD increment revision at
326 IAC 2-2-6(b). In the November 1, 2013, proposed rulemaking, EPA
proposed to approve the same revisions to Indiana's PSD increment at
326 IAC 2-2-6(b). EPA did not receive any adverse comments during the
comment period for that proposed rulemaking. However, given the earlier
adverse comment, EPA is not taking final action with respect to 326 IAC
2-2-6(b) in this action. Instead, EPA will address Indiana's
satisfaction of the PSD increment requirements and address the adverse
comment in a separate action.
    EPA is also taking no action on the following revisions to
Indiana's SIP:
    (i) 326 IAC 2-1.1-3(d)(2)(A);
    (ii) 326 IAC 2-1.1-3(e)(1)(A); and
    (iii) 326 IAC 2-1.1-3(h)(2)(B)(xi).
    As discussed in the November 1, 2013, proposal, these revisions to
permitting exemptions were requested for state regulations that EPA has
not previously approved into Indiana's SIP. If Indiana requests in the
future that EPA take action on adding these revisions to Indiana's SIP
as part of a separate SIP submission, then EPA will do so at that time.
    EPA is taking no action on the following revisions to Indiana's
title V program:
    (i) 326 IAC 2-7-1(21)(E)(vi); and
    (ii) 326 IAC 2-7-1(42)(C)(ii)(FF).
    As discussed in the November 1, 2013, proposal, EPA will take
action on the revisions to Indiana's title V program as part of a title
V program submission.

V. What action is EPA taking?

    For the reasons discussed previously in the proposed rulemaking and
in today's final rulemaking, EPA is approving into the Indiana SIP the
following revised rules addressing PM2.5 and ozone
requirements: 326 IAC 2-2-1(f)(1), (ee)(3), and (gg)(1)(C); 326 IAC 2-
2-4(b)(2)(A)(vi) and (c)(4); 326 IAC 2-2-14(e); and 326 IAC 5-1-
5(b)(1)(E).
    EPA is also approving into the Indiana SIP the following revised
rules to Indiana's nonattainment NSR program: 326 IAC 2-3-1(mm)(3) and
(pp).
    For the reasons identified in the November 1, 2013, proposed
rulemaking and further explained in today's final rulemaking, EPA is
taking no action with respect to the following revised rules to
PM2.5 PSD increment, permitting exemptions, and Indiana's
title V program: 326 IAC 2-1.1-3(d)(2)(A), (e)(1)(A), and
(h)(2)(B)(xi); 326 IAC 2-2-6(b); and 326 IAC 2-7-1(21)(E)(vi) and
(42)(C)(ii)(FF).

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the

CAA and applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR
52.02(a). Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve
state choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA.
Accordingly, this action merely approves state law as meeting Federal
requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond those
imposed by state law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by September 2, 2014. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or
action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

procedure.

The Proposal

    The FAA is considering an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish Class E airspace at Chatom,
AL, providing the controlled airspace required to support the RNAV
(GPS) standard instrument approach procedures for Roy Wilcox Airport.
Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
within a 6.5-mile radius of the airport would be established for the
safety and management of IFR operations.
    Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.9W, dated August 8, 2012, and effective September 15,
2012, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.
    The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore, (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) does not warrant preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. This proposed rulemaking is promulgated under the authority
described in Subtitle VII, Part, A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under
that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign
the use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This proposed regulation is within the scope
of that authority as it would establish Class E airspace at Roy Wilcox
Airport, Chatom, AL.
    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1E, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-73416; File No. SR-NASDAQ-2014-034]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC;
Notice of Designation of a Longer Period for Commission Action on a
Proposed Rule Change Relating to Proposed Changes To Remove From the
Exchange Rules Fee Provisions Regarding Re-Transmission of ``Third-
Party Data''

October 23, 2014.
    On April 7, 2014, The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (``Nasdaq'' or the
``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a
proposed rule change to remove, from the Exchange rules, fee provisions
with respect to third-party data feeds that Nasdaq receives from
multiple sources and then re-transmits to clients in connection with
the Exchange's co-location services. The proposed rule change was
published for comment in the Federal Register on April 28, 2014.\3\ On
June 5, 2014, the Commission extended the time to act on the proposal
until July 25, 2014.\4\ On July 22, 2014, the Commission instituted
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove the proposed rule change
in an order published in the Federal Register.\5\ The Commission
received no comment letters on the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 71990 (April 22,
2014), 79 FR 23389 (``Notice'').
    \4\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72328, 79 FR 33605
(June 11, 2014).
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 72654, 79 FR 43808
(July 28, 2014) (``Order Instituting Proceedings'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \6\ provides that, after initiating
disapproval proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving
or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after
the date of publication of notice of the filing of the proposed rule
change. The Commission may extend the period for issuing an order
approving or disapproving the proposed rule change, however, by not
more than 60 days if the Commission determines that a longer period is
appropriate and publishes the reasons for such determination. The
proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the
Federal Register on April 28, 2014. October 25, 2014 is 180 days from
that date, and December 24, 2014 is an additional 60 days from that
date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission finds that it is appropriate to designate a longer
period within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that
it has sufficient time to consider the issues raised in connection with
the proposed rule change. Specifically, as the Commission noted in the
Order Instituting Proceedings, the proposed rule change raises issues
such as whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the
statutory definition of the term ``facility'' and the statutory
requirements applicable to national securities exchanges.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Order Instituting Proceedings, supra note 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\8\ designates December 24, 2014, as the date by which the
Commission should either approve or disapprove the proposed rule
change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: On September 14, 2011, FEMA published in the Federal Register
a proposed rule that contained an erroneous table. This notice provides
corrections to that table, to be used in lieu of the information
published at 76 FR 56724. The table provided here represents the
flooding sources, location of referenced elevations, effective and
modified elevations, and communities affected for Rockland County, New
York (All Jurisdictions). Specifically, it addresses the following
flooding sources: Demarest Kill, East Branch Hackensack River, Golf
Course Brook, Hackensack River, Hudson River, Minisceongo Creek,
Nauraushaun Brook, North Branch Pascack Brook, Pascack Brook, Sparkill
Creek, West Branch Hackensack River, and West Branch Saddle River.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before February 5, 2013.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-
1214, to Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER> or
(email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,
Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC
20472,<PHONE_NUMBER> or (email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), in accordance with
section 110 of the

Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, and 44 CFR
67.4(a).
    These proposed BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements.
They should not be construed to mean that the community must change any
existing ordinances that are more stringent in their floodplain
management requirements. The community may at any time enact stricter
requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities. These proposed elevations are
used to meet the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and
also are used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium
rates for new buildings built after these elevations are made final,
and for the contents in those buildings.

Correction

    In the proposed rule published at 76 FR 56724, in the September 14,
2011, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``Rockland County, New
York (All Jurisdictions)'' addressed the following flooding sources:
Demarest Kill, East Branch Hackensack River, Golf Course Brook,
Hackensack River, Minisceongo Creek, Nauraushaun Brook, North Branch
Pascack Brook, Pascack Brook, Sparkill Creek, West Branch Hackensack
River, and West Branch Saddle River. That table did not include the
flooding source Hudson River. In this notice, FEMA is publishing a
table containing the accurate information, to address these prior
errors. The information provided below should be used in lieu of that
previously published.

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2011-1254; Directorate Identifier 2010-NM-178-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede an existing airworthiness directive
(AD) that applies to certain Model 737-300, -400, and -500 series
airplanes. The existing AD currently requires repetitive external
detailed inspections or non-destructive inspections to detect cracks in
the fuselage skin along the chem-mill steps at stringers S-1 and S-2R,
between station (STA) 400 and STA 460, and repair if necessary. Since
we issued that AD, we have received reports of additional crack
findings of the fuselage skin at the chem-mill steps. This proposed AD
would add inspections for cracking in additional fuselage skin
locations, and repair if necessary. This proposed AD would also reduce
the inspection thresholds and repetitive intervals for certain
airplanes. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct fatigue
cracking of the fuselage skin panels at the chem-mill steps, which
could result in sudden fracture and failure of the fuselage skin
panels, and consequent rapid decompression of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 12,
2012.

Discussion

    On September 11, 2008, we issued AD 2008-19-03, Amendment 39-15670
(73 FR 56958, October 1, 2008), for certain Model 737-300, -400, and -
500 series airplanes. That AD requires repetitive external detailed
inspections or non-destructive inspections to detect cracks in the
fuselage skin along the chem-mill steps at stringers S-1 and S-2R,
between STA 400 and STA 460, and repair if necessary. That AD resulted
from reports of cracks in the fuselage skin common to stringers S-1 and
S-2R, between STA 400 and STA 460. We issued that AD to detect and
correct fatigue cracking of the fuselage skin panels at the chem-mill
steps, which could result in sudden fracture and failure of the
fuselage skin panels, and consequent rapid decompression of the
airplane.

Actions Since Existing AD Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2008-19-03, Amendment 39-15670 (73 FR 56958,
October 1, 2008), we received reports of new findings of cracking in
the fuselage skin at the chem-mill steps adjacent to the Air Traffic
Control antenna. One reported crack was on the inboard side of S-2R at
STA 451; the crack measured one inch long. That airplane had
accumulated 52,207 total flight cycles. Another reported crack was on
the left-hand side of stringer S-1 at STA 431. That airplane had
accumulated 43,565 total flight cycles. Other cracks were located on
the left-hand side of stringer S-1, between STA 400 and STA 460 on
certain airplanes. The cause of the cracking was fatigue due to high-
tension stresses and local bending at the edge of the chem-mill pockets
of the bonded skin. It was also determined that the detailed inspection
alone (one method required by the existing AD) is not adequate to
detect the cracking.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 1,

dated July 7, 2010; and Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision
2, dated August 10, 2011. (Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1293,
dated August 13, 2008, was referred to for accomplishing the actions in
AD 2008-19-03, Amendment 39-15670 (73 FR 56958, October 1, 2008)).
    Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 1, dated July
7, 2010, adds an ultrasonic phased array inspection to the options for
non-destructive inspections (NDI) specified in Boeing Alert Service
Bulletin 737-53A1293, dated August 13, 2008, and combines the detailed
inspection and the NDI in lieu of doing either Option 1 (a detailed
inspection) or Option 2 (an NDI). Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293,
Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011, clarifies repair instructions for
specific findings.
    The initial inspection compliance times range between the
following, depending on configuration: (1) Before the accumulation
33,000 total flight cycles, or within 500 flight cycles after the date
on this service bulletin, whichever is later; and (2) before the
accumulation of 35,000 total flight cycles, or within 1,800 flight
cycles after the date on this service bulletin, whichever is later.
    The repetitive inspection intervals range between 500 and 2,400
flight cycles, depending on the inspection option and configuration.

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of these same type
designs.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would retain certain requirements of AD 2008-19-
03, Amendment 39-15670 (73 FR 56958, October 1, 2008). This proposed AD
would also require accomplishing the actions specified in Boeing
Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011, except
as discussed under ``Differences Between the AD and the Service
Information.''

Differences Between the AD and the Service Information

    Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated August 10,
2011, specifies contacting the manufacturer for instructions on how to
repair a certain condition, but this AD requires repairing that
condition in one of the following ways:
     Using a method that we approve; or
     Using data that meet the certification basis of the
airplane, and that have been approved by an Authorized Representative
for the Boeing Commercial Airplanes Delegation Option Authorization
Organization whom we have authorized to make those findings.
    The post-repair inspection specified in Tables 4 and 6 of paragraph
1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision
2, dated August 10, 2011, is not required by this proposed AD.

Interim Action

    We consider this proposed AD interim action. If final action is
identified later, we might consider further rulemaking then.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 596 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

    We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide
a cost estimate for the on-condition actions specified in this proposed
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

    We have 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 that the 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.

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:

    2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing airworthiness directive
(AD) 2008-19-03, Amendment 39-15670 (73 FR 56958, October 1, 2008), and
adding the following new AD:

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2011-1254; Directorate Identifier
2010-NM-178-AD.

Comments Due Date

    (a) The FAA must receive comments on this AD action by January
12, 2012.

Affected ADs

    (b) This AD supersedes AD 2008-19-03, Amendment 39-15670 (73 FR
56958, October 1, 2008).

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to Model 737-300, -400, and -500 series
airplanes, certificated in any category; as identified in Boeing
Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011.

Subject

    (d) Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC)/Air Transport
Association (ATA) of America Code 53, Fuselage.

Unsafe Condition

    (e) This AD was prompted by reports of additional crack findings
of the fuselage skin at the chem-mill steps. We are issuing this AD
to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the fuselage skin panels
at the chem-mill steps, which could result in sudden fracture and
failure of the fuselage skin panels, and consequent rapid
decompression of the airplane.

Compliance

    (f) Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

Repetitive Inspections

    (g) At the applicable times specified in paragraph 1.E.,
``Compliance,'' of Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2,
dated August 10, 2011, except as provided by paragraph (j) and (k)
of this AD: Do both a detailed inspection and a nondestructive
inspection (NDI) (medium frequency eddy current, magneto optical
imaging, C-scan, or ultrasonic phased array) to detect cracks in the
fuselage skin along the chem-mill steps at stringers S-1 and S-2R,
between station (STA) 400 and STA 460, in accordance with the
Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293,
Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011. Repeat the applicable inspections

accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Service
Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011; except as
provided by paragraph (i) of this AD. Installation of a repair that
meets the conditions specified in paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of
Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated August 10,
2011, terminates the repetitive inspections required by paragraph
(g) of this AD for the repaired area only.
    (i) If any crack is found during any inspection required by
paragraph (g) of this AD and Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293,
Revision 2, dated August 10, 2011, specifies to contact Boeing for
repair: Before further flight, repair using a method approved in
accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (n) of this
AD.

Exceptions to Service Bulletin

    (j) Where Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2, dated
August 10, 2011, specifies a compliance time relative to the date on
that service bulletin, this AD requires compliance within the

    (k) Where the Condition column of paragraph 1.E.,
``Compliance,'' of Boeing Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision 2,
dated August 10, 2011, specifies a condition based on whether an
airplane has or has not been inspected, this AD bases the condition
on whether an airplane has or has not been inspected as of the
effective date of this AD.
    (l) The post-repair inspection specified in Tables 4 and 6 of
paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Service Bulletin 737-
53A1293, Revision 2, August 10, 2011, is not required by this AD.

    Note 1: The damage tolerance inspections specified in Tables 4
and 6 of paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of Boeing Service Bulletin
737-53A1293, Revision 2, August 10, 2011, may be used in support of
compliance with section 121.1109(c)(2) or 129.109(c)(2) of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 121.1109(c)(2) or 14 CFR
129.109(c)(2)).

Credit for Actions Accomplished in Accordance With Previous Service
Information

    (m) Actions done before the effective date of this AD in
accordance with Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-53A1293, Revision
1, July 7, 2010, are acceptable for compliance with the
corresponding actions required by this AD.

Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (n)(1) The Manager, Seattle ACO, FAA, has the authority to
approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found
in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your request
to your principal inspector or local Flight Standards District
Office, as appropriate. If sending information directly to the
