SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    This action is directed to the public in general and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, farm worker, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry;
pesticide users; and members of the public interested in the sale,
distribution, or use of pesticides. Since others also may be
interested, the Agency has not attempted to describe all the specific
entities that may be affected by this action. If you have any questions
regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity,
consult the Chemical Review Manager for the pesticide of interest
identified in Table 1 in Unit IV.

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information on a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or

CD-ROM the specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to
one complete version of the comment that includes information claimed
as CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at: https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.
    3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to achieve environmental
justice, the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of any group,
including minority and/or low-income populations, in the development,
implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and
policies. To help address potential environmental justice issues, the
Agency seeks information on any groups or segments of the population
who, as a result of their location, cultural practices, or other
factors, may have atypical or disproportionately high and adverse human
health impacts or environmental effects from exposure to the pesticides
discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. Background

    Registration review is EPA's periodic review of pesticide
registrations to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the
statutory standard for registration, that is, the pesticide can perform
its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on human
health or the environment. As part of the registration review process,
the Agency has completed proposed interim or final decisions for all
pesticides listed in Table 1 in Unit IV. Through this program, EPA is
ensuring that each pesticide's registration is based on current
scientific and other knowledge, including its effects on human health
and the environment.

III. Authority

    EPA is conducting its registration review of the chemicals listed
in the Table 1 in Unit IV pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural
Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C.
Section 3(g) of FIFRA provides, among other things, that the
registrations of pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under
FIFRA, a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only
if it meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA
section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance with
widespread and commonly recognized practice, the pesticide product must
perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on
the environment; that is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the
environment, or a human dietary risk from residues that result from the
use of a pesticide in or on food.

IV. What action is the Agency taking?

    Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice announces the availability
of EPA's proposed interim or final registration review decisions for
the pesticides shown in Table 1 and opens a 60-day public comment
period on the proposed interim and proposed final registration review
decisions.

    The registration review docket for a pesticide includes earlier
documents related to the registration review case. For example, the
review opened with a Preliminary Work Plan, for public comment. A Final
Work Plan was placed in the docket following public comment on the
Preliminary Work Plan.
    The documents in the dockets describe EPA's rationales for
conducting additional risk assessments for the registration review of
the pesticides included in Table 1 in Unit IV, as well as the Agency's
subsequent risk findings and consideration of possible risk mitigation
measures. These proposed interim and proposed final registration review
decisions are supported by the rationales included in those documents.
Following public comment, the Agency will issue interim or final
registration review decisions for the pesticides listed in Table 1 in
Unit IV.
    The registration review final rule at 40 CFR 155.58(a) provides for
a minimum 60-day public comment period on all proposed registration
review decisions. This comment period is intended to provide an
opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating any
necessary amendments to the proposed decision. All comments should be
submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES and must be received by EPA on
or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the
docket for the pesticides included in the Tables in Unit IV. Comments
received after the close of the comment period will be marked ``late.''
EPA is not required to consider these late comments.
    The Agency will carefully consider all comments received by the
closing date and may provide a ``Response to Comments Memorandum'' in
the docket. The interim or final registration review decision will
explain the effect that any comments had on the decision and provide
the Agency's response to significant comments.

returned to the commenter.

Availability of NPRMs

    An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the
Internet at http://www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking
documents can also be accessed through the FAA's Web page at http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/air_traffic/publications/airspace_amendments/.
    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received and any final disposition in person in the Dockets
Office (see ADDRESSES section for address and phone number) between
9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal
business hours at the office of the Central Service Center, 2601
Meacham Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137.
    Persons interested in being placed on a mailing list for future
NPRMs should contact the FAA's Office of Rulemaking<PHONE_NUMBER>, to
request a copy of Advisory Circular No. 11-2A, Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking Distribution System, which describes the application
procedure.

The Proposal

    This action proposes to amend Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations
(14 CFR), Part 71 by modifying Class E airspace extending upward from
700 feet above the surface for standard instrument approach procedures
at Atwood--Rawlins County--City County Airport, Atwood, KS. The
airspace extension north of the airport would be removed due to the
decommissioning of the Atwood NDB and cancellation of the NDB approach.
Geographic coordinates would also be updated to coincide with the FAA's
aeronautical database. Controlled airspace within the existing 6.5-mile
radius is necessary for the safety and management of IFR operations at
the airport.
    Class E airspace areas 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 would 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 rule, when promulgated, will 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 U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, 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 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 regulation is within the scope of that authority
as it would amend controlled airspace at Atwood-Rawlins County-City
County Airport, Atwood, KS.

Environmental Review

    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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71

    Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (Air).

Proposed Collection; Comment Request

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, Office of Investor Education and Advocacy,
Washington, DC 20549-0213.

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the existing
collection of information provided for in Rule 17g-4 (17 CFR 240.17g-4)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.)
(``Exchange Act'').
    The Rating Agency Act added a new Section 15E, ``Registration of
Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations,'' \1\ to the
Exchange Act. Rule 17g-4 requires that a Nationally Recognized
Statistical Rating Organization (``NRSRO'') has written policies and
procedures to prevent the misuse of material nonpublic information
including: procedures designed to prevent the inappropriate
dissemination of material nonpublic information obtained in connection
with the performance of credit rating services; procedures designed to
prevent a person associated with the rating organization from trading
on material nonpublic information; and procedures designed to prevent
the inappropriate dissemination of a pending credit rating.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-7.
    \2\ See Rule 17g-4. Release No. 34-55231 (Feb. 2, 2007), 72 FR
6378 (Feb. 9, 2007); and Release No. 34-55857 (June 5, 2007), 72 FR
33564 (June 18, 2007).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is anticipated that 30 credit rating agencies will register with
the Commission as NRSROs under Section 15E of the Exchange Act. The
Commission estimates that it will take approximately 50 hours for an
NRSRO to establish procedures in conformance with Rule 17g-4 for a
total one-time burden for the 30 credit rating agencies the Commission
estimates will register as NRSROs of 1,500 hours.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 50 hours x 30 NRSROs = 1,500 hours.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. Consideration will be given to comments and
suggestions submitted in writing within 60 days of this publication.

Amendment 39-18414; AD 2016-04-20]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all The
Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER
series airplanes, Model 757 airplanes, Model 767 airplanes, and Model
777 airplanes. This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by
the manufacturer. This AD requires an inspection to determine if
certain motor-operated valve (MOV) actuators for the fuel valves are
installed, and replacement of any affected actuators. Previous ADs
addressed this Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 (SFAR 88)
issue for the majority of the airplanes delivered with these actuators.
Since those ADs did not cover all of the airplanes, and for some
airplanes delivered with improved actuators, there was no restriction
on installation of replacement actuators with the unsafe condition,
this additional rulemaking action is required. As with the related ADs,
we are issuing this AD to prevent electrical energy from lightning, hot
shorts, or fault current from entering the fuel tank through the fuel
valve actuator shaft, which could result in fuel tank explosions and
consequent loss of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective April 5, 2016.

ADDRESSES: For service information identified in this final rule,
contact Boeing Commercial Airplanes, Attention: Data & Services
Management, P.O. Box 3707, MC 2H-65, Seattle, WA 98124-2207; telephone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to all The Boeing Company
Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes,
Model 757 airplanes, Model 767 airplanes, and Model 777 airplanes. The
NPRM published in the Federal Register on November 7, 2014 (79 FR
66343) (``the NPRM''). The NPRM results from fuel system reviews
conducted by the manufacturer. The NPRM proposed to require an
inspection to determine if certain actuators for the fuel valves are
installed, and replacement of any affected actuators. Previous ADs
addressed this SFAR 88 (66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001) issue for the
majority of the airplanes delivered with these actuators. Since those
ADs did not cover all of the airplanes, and for some airplanes
delivered with improved actuators, there was no restriction on
installation of replacement actuators with the unsafe condition, this
additional rulemaking action is required. As with the related ADs, we
are issuing this AD to prevent electrical energy from lightning, hot
shorts, or fault current from entering the fuel tank through the fuel
valve actuator shaft, which could result in fuel tank explosions and
consequent loss of the airplane.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and
the FAA's response to each comment.

Requests To Revise the Proposed Applicability

    Boeing, All Nippon Airways (ANA), American Airlines (AAL),
Southwest Airlines (SWA), and United Airlines (UAL), requested that we
delete Model 737-600, -700, 700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series
airplanes from the applicability of the NPRM. The commenters stated
that AD 2008-06-03, Amendment 39-15415 (73 FR 13081, March 12, 2008)
(``AD 2008-06-03''), mandated replacement of all fuel system MOV
actuators having Part Number (P/N) MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on Model
737 airplanes, and that the compliance time for AD 2008-06-03 ended
April 16, 2013. Boeing stated that first production delivery of the
SFAR88 compliant actuator having P/N MA20A2027 (S343T003-56) occurred
on line number 1877, and that the illustrated parts catalog (IPC) for
that airplane and subsequent airplanes prohibited installation of MOV
actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39).
    We partially agree with the commenters' requests. We agree there is
little risk that MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are
currently installed on Model 737-600, -700, 700C, -800, -900, and -
900ER series airplanes for the reasons provided by the commenter.
However, we want to ensure that MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) are not installed on these airplanes in the future.
Therefore, we have removed Model 737 airplanes from the actions
required by paragraph (g) of this AD but not from the applicability of
the AD. We have retained Model 737 airplanes in paragraph (i) of this
AD, which states that no person may install an MOV actuator having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on any airplane. Paragraph (i) of this AD
ensures that installation of MOV actuators having P/

N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) is prohibited.
    Boeing, AAL, and UAL requested that we delete Model 757-200, -
200PF, -200CB, and -300 series airplanes from the applicability of the
NPRM. The commenters stated that the previously referenced AD 2008-06-
03 is applicable to Model 757 airplanes. Boeing stated that the last
Model 757 airplane was delivered prior to development of the new SFAR
88 compliant MOV actuator and that AD 2008-06-03 will ensure that MOV
actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are not installed on any
Model 757 airplanes.
    We partially agree with the commenters' requests. We agree that the
requirements of AD 2008-06-03 are intended to prevent Model 757-200, -
200PF, -200CB, and -300 series airplanes from having an MOV actuator
having P/N MA20A1001-1 installed and have determined there is little
risk that MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are
currently installed on Model 757-200, -200PF, -200CB, and -300 series
airplanes. However, we want to ensure that MOV actuators having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are not installed on these airplanes in the
future. Therefore, we have removed the Model 757 airplanes from the
actions required by paragraph (g) of this AD. We have retained Model
757 airplanes in paragraph (i) of this AD, which states that no person
may install an MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on any
airplane.
    Boeing, AAL, ANA, and UAL requested that we delete Model 767
airplanes from the applicability of the NPRM. The commenters stated
that AD 2009-22-13, Amendment 39-16066 (74 FR 55755, October 29, 2009)
(``AD 2009-22-13''), mandated replacement of all fuel system MOV
actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on Model 767 airplanes,
and that the compliance time for AD 2009-22-13 ended December 3, 2014.
Boeing stated that first production delivery of the SFAR 88 compliant
MOV actuator having P/N MA30A1001-1 (S343T003-56) occurred on line
number 941; and that the IPC for that airplane and subsequent airplanes
prohibited installation of the MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39).
    We partially agree with the commenters' requests. We agree with
deleting most Boeing Model 767-200, -300, -300F, and -400ER series
airplanes from the actions required by paragraph (g) of this AD but not
from the applicability of the AD. The requirements of AD 2009-22-13 are
intended to prevent all but Model 767-300 series airplanes having line
numbers 939 and 940 from having an MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) installed. We have determined that except for Model 767-
300 series airplanes having line numbers 939 and 940, there is little
risk that MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are
currently installed on Model 767-200, -300, -300F, and -400ER series
airplanes. Therefore, we have revised paragraph (g) of this AD to
specify that the actions apply to Model 767-300 series airplanes with
line numbers 939 and 940. To ensure that MOV actuators having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) are not installed in the future on Model 767
airplanes, we have retained Model 767 airplanes in paragraph (i) of
this AD, which states that no person may install an MOV actuator having
P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on any airplane.
    Boeing, AAL, ANA, Delta Airlines (DAL), and UAL requested that we
revise the Model 777 applicability. The commenters stated that AD 2013-
05-03, Amendment 39-17375 (78 FR 17290, March 21, 2013) (``AD 2013-05-
03''), mandated replacement of all fuel system MOV actuators having P/N
MA20A1001-1 on Model 777 airplanes and prohibits installation of an MOV
actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1 on any Model 777 airplane. Boeing
stated that the NPRM would be redundant for airplanes covered by AD
2013-05-03, and that all other airplanes that are not covered by AD
2013-05-03 have no production authority to install an MOV actuator
having P/N MA20A1001-1.
    We partially agree with the commenters' requests. We agree with
deleting Model 777 airplanes with Aircraft Information Management
System (AIMS) version 2 covered by AD 2013-05-03 from the actions
required by paragraph (g) of this AD but not from the applicability of
this AD. The requirements of AD 2013-05-03 will prevent an MOV actuator
having P/N MA20A1001-1 from being installed on these airplanes. We
disagree with deleting Model 777 airplanes with AIMS version 1 from the
applicability of this AD because AD 2013-05-03 allows airplanes with
AIMS version 1 to retain MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 at
certain locations. We have revised paragraph (g) of this AD to exclude
Model 777 airplanes having line numbers 454 through 551 inclusive,
which have AIMS version 2 installed.
    Boeing, AAL, and DAL requested that we exclude certain Model 777
airplanes from the actions required by paragraph (g) of the proposed
AD. The commenters stated that it appears that the intent of the NPRM
might be to address the IPC that allows an MOV actuator having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) to be installed on a limited number of Model
777 airplanes. Boeing stated that it believes that, as the IPC has been
corrected to not allow installation of an MOV actuator having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39), and that Boeing Service Bulletin 777-
28A0034, Revision 3, dated September 25, 2015, provides inspections of
the MOV actuator for the 11 airplanes affected by the IPC, the actions
taken are sufficient to ensure removal of the MOV actuator having P/N
MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) from the affected airplanes.
    We partially agree with the commenter's request. We have revised
paragraph (g) of this AD to exclude Model 777 airplane having line
number 563 and subsequent from the actions required by paragraph (g) of
this AD. As stated previously, we have already revised paragraph (g) to
exclude Model 777 airplanes having line numbers 454 through 551
inclusive. However, the 11 Model 777 airplanes affected by the IPC
error are retained in paragraph (g) of this AD in order to require an
inspection and replacement of MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39). To ensure that MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) are not installed on Model 777 airplanes in the future,
all Model 777 airplanes are included in paragraph (i) of this AD, which
states that no person may install an MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-
1 (S343T003-39) on any airplane. Paragraph (i) of this AD ensures that
installation of MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) is
prohibited.

Requests To Clarify Justification for the NPRM (79 FR 66343, November
7, 2014)

    Boeing, AAL, and DAL requested that we clarify the reasons for
issuing the NPRM as it appears to be requiring actions mandated in
previously issued ADs.
    We agree to clarify the reasons for this rulemaking action. We have
revised the SUMMARY and Discussion section of this final rule to state
that previous ADs address this SFAR 88 issue for the majority of the
airplanes delivered with these actuators. Since those ADs did not cover
all of the airplanes, and since some airplanes have no restrictions to
prevent airplanes delivered with improved actuators from receiving
replacement actuators with the unsafe condition, this additional
rulemaking action is required. As with the ADs described previously, we
are issuing this AD to prevent electrical energy

from lightning, hot shorts, or fault current from entering the fuel
tank through the actuator shaft, which could result in fuel tank
explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.

Request To Revise Unsafe Condition Statement

    Boeing requested that we revise the unsafe condition statement in
the NPRM to better define the unsafe condition. Boeing stated that the
unsafe condition is the possibility for operators to install the non-
SFAR88 compliant [and in this case unsafe] MOV actuator design, due to
a possible IPC error, on in-service airplanes that have been delivered
with the SFAR88 compliant MOV actuator design. Boeing stated that AD
2008-06-03 required replacing all MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) for all Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -
900ER series airplanes, and Model 757 airplanes, but the actions in the
NPRM implied otherwise.
    We partially agree with the commenter. We agree that an IPC error
might have allowed non-SFAR88 compliant MOV actuators to be installed.
However, the IPC error only affected a limited number of Model 777
airplanes and not Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER
series airplanes, and Model 757 and 767 airplanes. As stated
previously, this AD was revised and, therefore, does not require an
inspection, and replacement if necessary, for Model 737-600, -700, -
700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes, Model 757 airplanes, and
Model 767 airplanes, except for Model 767-300 series airplanes having
line numbers 939 and 940.
    We disagree with changing the unsafe condition statement since that
statement reflects the consequent results of installing the non-
compliant MOV actuator. We have not changed this AD in this regard.

Requests To Revise Compliance Time for the MOV Actuator Replacement

    Boeing and UAL requested that we revise the compliance time in
paragraph (h) of the proposed AD for the MOV actuator replacement from
within 60 months after the effective date of this AD to before further
flight. The commenters stated that this revision would then match the
language used in AD 2008-06-03.
    As we stated previously, the airplanes identified in AD 2008-06-03
have been removed from paragraph (g) of this AD and therefore those
airplanes are not affected by paragraph (h) of this AD. The compliance
of ``within 60 months after the effective date of this AD'' does
correspond with the compliance times specified in AD 2009-22-13 and AD
2013-05-03 and the associated Boeing service information. In developing
an appropriate compliance time, we considered the safety implications,
parts availability, and normal maintenance schedules for timely
accomplishment of replacement of the MOV actuators. In consideration of
all of these factors, we determined that the compliance time, as
proposed, represents an appropriate interval in which the MOV actuator
having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) can be replaced in a timely manner
within the fleet, while still maintaining an adequate level of safety.
We have confirmed with Boeing that the safety analysis supports the
compliance of ``within 60 months after the effective date of this AD.''
Operators are always permitted to accomplish the requirements of an AD
at a time earlier than the specified compliance time. We have not
changed this AD in this regard.

Request To Remove Parts Installation Prohibition

    Boeing and UAL stated that AD 2008-06-03, AD 2009-22-13, and AD
2013-05-03 already prohibit installation of the unsafe MOV actuator.
    From this statement, we infer that the commenters would like us to
remove paragraph (i) of the proposed AD, which proposed to prohibit
installation of an MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on
any airplane as of the effective date of the AD. We do not agree to
remove paragraph (i) of this AD. While in some instances there are
prohibitions against installation of these MOV actuators, there are
certain airplanes on which operators are still allowed to install these
actuators. We have determined that paragraph (i) of this AD is
necessary to ensure that no MOV actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) are installed on any Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -
900, and -900ER series airplane, Model 757 airplane, Model 767
airplane, or Model 777 airplane. We have not changed this AD in this
regard.

Requests To Revise ``Affected AD'' Paragraph

    Boeing and ANA requested that we add AD 2008-06-03 to paragraph
(b), ``Affected ADs'' of the proposed AD. ANA also requested that we
add AD 2009-22-13 and AD 2013-05-03 to paragraph (b), ``Affected ADs''
of the proposed AD. Boeing stated that AD 2008-06-03 replaced all MOV
actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39), and that the NPRM
implied otherwise.
    We agree that the referenced ADs are related, but we disagree with
the request to change paragraph (b) of this AD. The referenced ADs are
similar to this AD but are not directly impacted by this AD. The term
``affected ADs'' refers to ADs that are directly affected by this AD,
for example, ADs that are superseded, revised, or terminated by this
AD. Also, as stated previously, airplanes affected by AD 2008-06-03
have been removed from the inspection required by paragraph (g) of this
AD, and therefore, are not included in the replacement of MOV actuators
having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) required by paragraph (h) of this
AD. We have not changed this AD in this regard.

Requests To Use Alternative Inspections

    Boeing and DAL requested that we make accomplishment of the
inspection requirements in paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD using the
service information identified in earlier ADs, such as AD 2008-06-03,
acceptable for addressing the unsafe condition identified in this AD.
Boeing stated that approving those previous inspection requirements
would prevent repetition of inspections already performed.
    As we stated previously, the airplanes identified in AD 2008-06-03
and certain earlier ADs have been removed from paragraph (g) of this
AD; therefore, those airplanes are also not affected by paragraph (h)
of this AD. Thus, there is no need to identify the service information
from earlier ADs. We have not changed this AD in this regard.

Request To Retain Maintenance Records Review

    ANA requested that we retain the maintenance records review
provided in paragraph (g) of the proposed AD to determine if an unsafe
MOV actuator is installed.
    We acknowledge the commenter's request. Paragraph (g) of this AD
already permits a review of the airplane maintenance records to
determine if the unsafe MOV actuator is installed. We have retained
that action in this AD. Therefore, no additional change to this AD is
necessary in this regard.

Requests for Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC)

    ANA and DAL requested that we specify the previous related ADs as
an AMOC for the actions, since those ADs do the same actions for some
of the airplanes identified in the NPRM.
    We partially agree with the commenters' requests. We agree with the
concept of providing credit for

previous actions because most operators have already taken the actions
required by the previously described related ADs. We disagree with
providing an AMOC for previous actions because airplanes changed
according to the requirements of the previously described related ADs
have been removed from paragraph (g) of this AD. No further change to
this AD has been made in this regard.

Request for Part Clarification

    SWA requested that we clarify the name of the actuator. SWA stated
that the NPRM preamble describes replacement of ``spar-mounted'' MOV
actuators, but paragraphs (g), (h), and (i) of the proposed AD does not
state ``spar-mounted.''
    We agree to clarify the name of the actuator. Most components have
several ways to refer to them. In order to provide consistency, we have
removed the term ``spar-mounted'' in the preamble of this final rule.

Request To Provide MOV Actuator Locations

    DAL requested that we include or give reference to graphics or
figures, which would clearly illustrate the locations of all affected
MOV actuators.
    We agree with the commenter's request to specify the locations of
all affected MOV actuators, but we do not agree to reference graphics
or figures. We have added new paragraphs (g)(1) and (g)(2) in this AD
to specify the MOV actuator locations.

Request To Revise Part Location Wording

    DAL requested that we revise the last sentence of paragraph (g) of
the proposed AD to reflect the fact that there are multiple positions
for the installed MOV actuators.
    We agree with the commenter's request. We have revised the
introductory text of paragraph (g) of this AD to state in part, ``A
review of airplane maintenance records is acceptable in lieu of this
inspection, if the part number of the actuator at each location can be
conclusively determined from that review.''

Request To Add IPC Terminating Action

    DAL requested that we revise the NPRM to permit an IPC restriction
as terminating action for the actions required by paragraph (g) of the
propose AD. DAL stated that it believes this IPC restriction would
provide an equivalent level of safety to the maintenance records review
specified in paragraph (g) of the proposed AD.
    We do not agree with the commenter's request. The IPC would
indicate that P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) is not eligible for
installation, but it would not require actions for any airplanes with a
non-compliant actuator that is currently installed. In addition, the
IPC is not FAA-approved and is not used to control the configuration of
the airplane. Therefore, the inspection required by paragraph (g) of
this AD must be done to identify non-compliant actuators and paragraph
(h) of this AD must be done to replace non-compliant actuators. We have
not changed this AD in this regard.

Request To Provide Part Replacement Procedure Reference

    DAL requested that we include a statement in paragraph (h) of the
proposed AD to specify that MOV actuator replacement following the
applicable aircraft maintenance manual (AMM) procedures is an
acceptable procedure. DAL stated that operators will have difficulty
complying with the part replacement requirements due to the lack of
specific details relating to the part replacement method.
    We agree with the commenter's request. We have added new Note 1 to
paragraph (h) of this AD, which states that guidance on replacing the
affected MOV actuator can be found in the Boeing 767 Aircraft
Maintenance Manual or the Boeing 777 Aircraft Maintenance Manual, as
applicable.

Request To Provide Part Number References

    DAL requested that we include a statement in paragraph (h) of the
proposed AD, or an additional new paragraph, which would identify all
known MOV actuator part numbers that are acceptable replacement parts.
DAL stated that operators will have difficulty complying with the part
replacement requirements due to the lack of specific details relating
to the MOV actuator part numbers.
    We do not agree with the commenter's request. The unsafe condition
is present in only one part number actuator. There are several part
numbers that are appropriate for replacement and new ones may become
available. As such, we only intend to prohibit the installation of
parts that are known to have unsafe conditions associated with them.
This approach should make it easier for an operator to comply with the
requirements of this AD without the need for AMOCs to install future
acceptable part numbers and still prevent unsafe parts from being
installed. We have not changed this AD in this regard.

Request To Revise Proposed Cost Estimates

    DAL requested that we revise the proposed costs estimates. DAL
stated that inspection of all the MOV positions (described in Boeing
Service Bulletin 777-28A0034), can take between 3.25 and 3.75 work-
hours, excluding access and restoration; and that the on-condition
replacement of a single MOV actuator can be as high as 51 work-hours.
DAL also stated that the cost of a replacement MOV actuator is $6,862.
    We agree with the commenter's request to revise the cost estimates
provided in this final rule. We have revised the on-condition part cost
to $6,862. Replacing an actuator can take as little as 30 minutes, or
up to 51 hours if a fuel tank needs to be emptied. Therefore, we have
revised the on-condition labor cost to up to 51 work-hours to reflect
the possible higher cost.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD with the changes described previously and minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 2,140 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs 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),
    (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.

Adoption of the Amendment

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

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the
manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent electrical energy
from lightning, hot shorts, or fault current from entering the fuel
tank through the fuel valve actuator shaft, which could result in
fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Inspection To Determine Part Number (P/N)

    For Model 767-300 series airplanes having line numbers 939 and
940; and Model 777-200, -200LR, -300, -300ER, and -777F series
airplanes, except airplanes having line numbers 454 through 551
inclusive, and 563 and subsequent: Within 60 months after the
effective date of this AD, do an inspection to determine whether any
motor-operated shutoff valve (MOV) actuators having P/N MA20A1001-1
(S343T003-39) for the fuel tanks or fuel feed system are installed
on the airplane. A review of airplane maintenance records is
acceptable in lieu of this inspection if the part number of the
actuator at each location can be conclusively determined from that
review.
    (1) For Model 767 airplanes, there are several affected actuator
locations: the fuel shutoff valves, the fuel crossfeed valves, the
defueling valves, the jettison nozzle valves, the jettison transfer
valves, the auxiliary power unit (APU) fuel shutoff valve and the
APU fuel isolation valve.
    (2) For Model 777 airplanes, there are several affected actuator
locations: the fuel shutoff valves, the fuel crossfeed valves, the
defueling valves, the jettison nozzle valves, the jettison isolation
valves, the APU fuel shutoff valve, the APU fuel isolation valve,
the auxiliary tank isolation valve, the auxiliary tank refuel valve,
the auxiliary tank fuel transfer valve, the auxiliary tank vent
valve, and the auxiliary tank Number 2 refuel isolation valve.

(h) Replacement

    If, during the inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD,
any MOV actuator

having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) for the fuel tanks is
installed: Within 60 months after the effective date of this AD,
replace the affected MOV actuator with a serviceable, FAA-approved
MOV actuator other than one having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39).

    Note 1 to paragraph (h) of this AD:  Guidance on replacing the
affected MOV actuator may be found in the Boeing 767 Aircraft
Maintenance Manual or the Boeing 777 Aircraft Maintenance Manual, as
applicable.

(i) Parts Installation Prohibition

    As of the effective date of this AD, no person may install an
MOV actuator having P/N MA20A1001-1 (S343T003-39) on any airplane.

(j) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (1) The Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (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

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-67259; File No. SR-CME-2012-25]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Inc.;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To
Adopt Changes That Would Affect Its Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk
Methodology for Certain Energy Futures Contracts

June 26, 2012.
    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 June 14, 2012, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Inc. (``CME'') filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the
proposed rule change described in Items I, II and III below, which
items have been prepared primarily by CME. CME filed the proposed rule
change pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \3\ of the Act and Rule 19b-
4(f)(4)(ii) \4\ thereunder, so that the proposed rule change was
effective upon filing with the Commission. The Commission is publishing
this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from
interested parties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \4\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(4)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CME proposes to adopt certain changes that would affect its
Standard Portfolio Analysis of Risk (``SPAN'') methodology for certain
energy futures contracts. The text of the proposed rule change is
available at the CME's Web site at http://www.cmegroup.com/market-regulation/rule-filings.html.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, CME included statements
concerning the purpose 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. CME has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The Commission has modified the text of the summaries
prepared by CME.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CME proposes to adopt certain changes that would affect its SPAN
methodology for certain energy futures contracts. The change would be
to adopt the Modified Split Allocation feature of SPAN. The Modified
Split Allocation feature calibrates the risk of portfolios, consisting
of positions in highly similar and correlated futures and options,
including instruments which themselves represent the offset or basis
between two sets of products. The feature represents an incremental
enhancement to the split allocation methodology already in use to allow
for the ``splitting'' of certain futures contracts into their true
underlying components to enable more accurate margining, while
maintaining proper assessments of second order volatility risk.
    With the Modified Split Allocation feature, futures products, which
are made up of components of other futures products will no longer have
to be margined separately and managed with inter-commodity credit
amounts allowing for more optimal spread offsets. The Modified Split
Allocation will allow automatic, consistent and accurate portfolio
margining of these types of futures contracts, beginning with the WTI
Calendar Swap Futures (CS) and the Brent Calendar Swap Futures (CY).
    The text of a CME Clearing Advisory Notice constitutes CME's
proposed change. CME also made a filing, CME Submission 12-189, with
the CFTC with respect to the proposed changes. The changes were
scheduled to become operational on June 25, 2012.
    The proposed CME changes are limited to CME's activities as a
derivatives clearing organization clearing futures transactions. As
such, CME believes the proposed CME changes do not significantly affect
the security-based swap clearing operations of CME or any related
rights or obligations of CME security-based swap clearing participants.
CME believes the proposed change is therefore properly filed under
Section 19(b)(3)(A) and Rule 19b-4(f)(4)(ii) thereunder because it
effects a change in an existing service of a registered clearing agency
that primarily affects the futures clearing operations of the clearing
agency with respect to futures that are not security futures and does
not significantly affect any securities clearing operations of the
clearing agency or any related rights or obligations of the clearing
agency or persons using such service.

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

    CME does not believe that the proposed rule change will have any
impact, or impose any burden, on competition.

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

    CME has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit, comments
regarding this proposed rule change. CME has not received any
unsolicited written comments from interested parties.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change was filed pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
\6\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(4)(ii) \7\ thereunder and thus became
effective upon filing because it effects a change in an existing
service of a registered clearing agency that primarily affects the
futures clearing operations of the clearing agency with respect to
futures that are not security futures and does not significantly affect
any securities clearing operations of the clearing agency or any
related rights or obligations of the clearing agency or persons using
such service. At any time within sixty days of the filing of such rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Soil Biogenics Ltd., File No. 500-1; Order of Suspension of
Trading

August 14, 2013.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Soil Biogenics Ltd. because it has not filed

any periodic reports since the period ended December 31, 2006.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed company. Therefore, it is ordered,
pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that
trading in the securities of the above-listed company is suspended for
the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT on August 14, 2013, through 11:59 p.m.
EDT on August 27, 2013.

    By the Commission.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[SEC File No. 270-540, OMB Control No. 3235-0600]

Proposed Collection; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 611

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736

    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (``PRA'') (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the existing
collection of information provided for in Rule 611 (17 CFR 242.611)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.)
(``Exchange Act''). The Commission plans to submit this existing
collection of information to the Office of Management and Budget
(``OMB'') for extension and approval.
    On June 9, 2005, effective August 29, 2005 (see 70 FR 37496, June
29, 2005), the Commission adopted Rule 611 of Regulation NMS under the
Exchange Act to require any national securities exchange, national
securities association, alternative trading system, exchange market
maker, over-the-counter market maker, and any other broker-dealer that
executes orders internally by trading as principal or crossing orders
as agent, to establish, maintain, and enforce written policies and
procedures reasonably designed to prevent the execution of a
transaction in its market at a price that is inferior to a bid or offer
displayed in another market at the time of execution (a ``trade-
though''), absent an applicable exception and, if relying on an
exception, that are reasonably designed to assure compliance with the
terms of the exception. Without this collection of information,
respondents would not have a means to enforce compliance with the
Commission's intention to prevent trade-throughs pursuant to the rule.
    There are approximately 235 respondents \1\ per year that will
require an aggregate total of approximately 14,100 hours to comply with
this Rule. It is anticipated that each respondent will continue to
expend approximately 60 hours annually: two hours per month of internal
legal time and three hours per month of internal compliance time to
ensure that its written policies and procedures are up-to-date and
remain in compliance with Rule 611. The estimated cost for an in-house
attorney is $489 per hour and the estimated cost for an assistant
compliance director in the securities industry is $432 per hour.
Therefore the estimated total internal cost of compliance for the
annual hour burden is as follows: [(2 legal hours x 12 months x $489) x
235] + [(3 compliance hours x 12 months x $432) x 235] = $6,412,680.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ This estimate includes 16 national securities exchanges that
are equity securities exchanges. The estimate also includes an
estimated 187 firms that are over-the-counter market makers or
exchange market makers, as well as an estimated 32 alternative
trading systems that trade NMS stocks.
    \2\ The total cost of compliance for the annual hour burden has
been revised to reflect updated estimated cost figures for an in-
house attorney and an assistant compliance director. These figures
are from SIFMA's Management & Professional Earnings in the
Securities Industry 2013, modified by Commission staff to account
for an 1800-hour work-year and multiplied by 5.35 to account for
bonuses, firm size, employee benefits, and overhead, and then
adjusted for inflation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Written comments are invited on: (a) whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to comments and suggestions submitted by
July 3, 2023.
    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.
    Please direct your written comments to: David Bottom, Director/
Chief Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o John
Pezzullo, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, or send an email to:
[email protected].
