SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-71952; File No. SR-NYSEMKT-2014-32]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NYSE MKT LLC; Notice of Filing and
Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change Proposes To Amend
Certain of Its NYSE MKT Equities Rule Series (500 through 525) To
Permit Additional Securities To Be Admitted to Dealings on the Exchange
Pursuant to a Grant of Unlisted Trading Privileges

April 16, 2014.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that on April 4, 2014, NYSE MKT LLC (the ``Exchange'' or ``NYSE
MKT'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II
below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend certain of its NYSE MKT Equities
Rule Series (500 through 525) to permit additional securities to be
admitted to dealings on the Exchange pursuant to a grant of unlisted
trading privileges. Additionally, the Exchange proposes to amend
Supplementary Material .20 to Rule 103--Equities to apply a uniform
minimum net capital standard to Designated Market Maker (``DMM'')
units, regardless of the type of security in which the DMM unit is
registered. The text of the proposed rule change is available on the
Exchange's Web site at www.nyse.com, at the principal office of the
Exchange, at the Commission's Public Reference Room, and on the
Commission's Web site at www.sec.gov.

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

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

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

1. Purpose
    The Exchange is proposing to amend certain of its NYSE MKT Equities
Rule Series (500 through 525) (the ``500 series rules'') to permit
additional securities to be admitted to dealings on the Exchange
pursuant to a grant of unlisted trading privileges. Additionally, the
Exchange proposes to amend Supplementary Material .20 to NYSE MKT Rule
103--Equities to apply a uniform minimum net capital standard to DMM
units,\4\ regardless of the type of security in which the DMM unit is
registered.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ DMM unit is defined as ``any member organization,
aggregation unit within a member organization, or division or
department within an integrated proprietary aggregation unit of a
member organization that (i) has been approved by NYSE Regulation
pursuant to NYSE MKT Rule 98(c)--Equities, (ii) is eligible for
allocations under Rule 103B--Equities as a DMM unit in a security
listed or traded on the Exchange, and (iii) has met all registration
and qualification requirements for DMM units assigned to such
unit.'' See Rule 98(b)(2)--Equities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amendments to 500 Series Rules
    Securities admitted to trade on the Exchange pursuant to a grant of
unlisted trading privileges are subject to a pilot program (the ``UTP
Pilot Program'') set forth in the 500 series rules.\5\ The current UTP
Pilot Program is limited to securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock
Exchange (``Nasdaq Securities''), and includes only a single Exchange
Traded Fund, the Invesco PowerShares QQQTM (the
``QQQTM'').\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 62479 (July 9,
2010), 75 FR 41264 (July 15, 2010) (SR-NYSEAmex-2010-31).
    \6\ The UTP Pilot Program is currently scheduled to expire on
the earlier of Commission approval to make the pilot permanent or
July 31, 2014. See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 71363 (Jan.
21, 2014), 79 FR 4373 (Jan. 27, 2014) (SR-NYSEMKT-2014-01).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend certain of the 500 series rules to
expand the UTP Pilot Program beyond Nasdaq Securities and replace the
term ``Nasdaq Securities'' with the term ``UTP Securities,'' which
would be admitted to trading on the Exchange pursuant to a grant of
unlisted trading privileges. As proposed, amended Rule 501(b)--Equities
\7\ would define ``UTP Security''

to mean any security not listed on the Exchange that (i) is designated
as an ``eligible security'' under the ``UTP Plan,'' discussed below,
and (ii) has been admitted to dealings on the Exchange pursuant to a
grant of unlisted trading privileges in accordance with Section 12(f)
of the Act.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ As discussed in detail below, the scope of Exchange Traded
Funds eligible to trade on the Exchange pursuant to a grant of
unlisted trading privileges would be expanded beyond the
QQQTM. Thus, current Rule 501(b)--Equities would be
deleted and current paragraphs (c) through (g) of Rule 501--Equities
would be redesignated as paragraphs (b) through (d) of Rule 501--
Equities, and certain of those redesignated paragraphs would be
amended, as indicated in this filing.
    \8\ Section 12(a) of the Act generally prohibits the trading on
a national securities exchange of any security that is not listed on
that exchange. Subject to certain limitations, however, Section
12(f) excludes from this restriction securities traded pursuant to
unlisted trading privileges that are listed and registered on
another national securities exchange, otherwise registered under
Section 12 of the Act, or that would be required to be so registered
except for a specified exemption from registration. 15 U.S.C. 78l;
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 43217 (Aug. 29, 2000), 65 FR
53560 (Sept. 5, 2000).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition to Nasdaq Securities, the new definition of UTP
Securities would include certain ``Exchange Traded Products''
(``ETPs''). For purposes of this filing, ETPs include Exchange Traded
Funds (``ETFs'') \9\; Exchange Traded Notes (``ETNs'') \10\; Exchange
Traded Vehicles (``ETVs'') \11\; or any other security, other than a
single equity option or a security futures product, whose value is
based, in whole or in part, upon the performance of, or interest in, an
underlying instrument.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ An ETF is an open-end management investment company under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 that has received certain
exemptive relief from the Commission to allow secondary market
trading in the ETF shares. An ETF typically holds a portfolio of
securities that is intended to provide results that, before fees and
expenses, generally correspond to the price and yield performance of
an underlying benchmark index or an investment objective, or that,
rather than seek to track the performance of an underlying index,
are managed according to the investment objective of the ETF's
investment advisor.
    \10\ An ETN is a senior unsecured debt obligation designed to
track the total return of an underlying index, benchmark or
strategy, minus investor fees. ETNs are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 and are redeemable to the issuer.
    \11\ An ETV tracks the underlying performance of an asset or
index, allowing the investors exposure to underlying assets such as
futures contracts, commodities, and currencies without trading
futures or taking physical delivery of the underlying asset. An ETV
is traded intraday like an ETF. An ETV is an open-end trust or
partnership unit that is registered under the Securities Act of
1933.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As proposed, New Rule 501(b)(3)--Equities, would exclude from the
definition of UTP Security any ETP that has one or more component
securities that trade either on the Exchange or on the New York Stock
Exchange, LLC (the ``NYSE''). However, consistent with current 500
Series Rules, proposed new Rule 501(b)(3)--Equities would permit the
QQQTM, an ETF, to continue to trade on the Exchange on an
unlisted trading privileges basis, subject to the continuation of
certain restrictions.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Rule 504(b)(5)--Equities. The Exchange proposes to
replace the reference to ``ETF'' and ``Exchange Traded Fund'' in
Rule 504(b)(5)--Equities with ``QQQTM'' because the only
ETF that would be subject to the requirements of that rule would be
the QQQTM.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend the definition of UTP Plan under
Rule 501(f)--Equities to reflect the expanded scope of the UTP Pilot
Program. The current rule \13\ applies only to Nasdaq Securities and,
therefore, the definition of UTP Plan is limited to the Joint Self-
Regulatory Organization Plan Governing the Collection, Consolidation
and Dissemination of Quotation and Transaction Information for Nasdaq-
listed Securities Traded on Exchanges on an Unlisted Trading Privilege
Basis (the ``Nasdaq Plan''). Amended Rule 501(f)--Equities would define
the UTP Plan as comprising the Nasdaq Plan for Nasdaq Securities, plus
the Consolidated Tape Association Plan for the Dissemination of Last
Sale Prices of Transactions in Eligible Securities (``CTA Plan''),
which would apply to all securities other than Nasdaq Securities that
trade on the Exchange on an unlisted trading privileges basis,
including ETPs listed on NYSE Arca, Inc.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ Rule 501(g)--Equities has been redesignated as Rule
501(f)--Equities.
    \14\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 10787 (May 10,
1974), 39 FR 17799 (May 20, 1974) (declaring the CTA Plan
effective). The Nasdaq Plan provides for the collection, processing,
and dissemination of last sale and quotation data with respect to
Nasdaq Securities trading on participant exchanges on an unlisted
trading privileges basis. See Securities Exchange Act Release No.
70429 (Sept. 17, 2013), 78 FR 58352 (Sept. 23, 2013). The CTA Plan
provides for the collection, processing, and dissemination of last
sale data for non-Nasdaq Securities trading on participant exchanges
on an unlisted trading privileges basis. See Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 70010 (July 19, 2013), 78 FR 44984 (July 25, 2013) (SR-
CTA/CQ-2013-04).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 509(a)(2)--Equities with
respect to a DMM's obligations to maintain price continuity with
reasonable depth under Rules 104(f)(ii) and (iii) and 104(h)(ii) and
(iii)(A)--Equities. The obligations are set out in Depth Guidelines and
Price Participation Points (``PPPs''), which are implemented by the
Exchange. The Exchange issues Depth Guidelines for each security in
which a DMM is registered, and a DMM is expected to quote and trade
with reference to such guidelines.\15\ PPPs serve as guidelines that
identify the price at or before which a DMM unit is expected to re-
enter the market after a ``Conditional Transaction.'' \16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ Rule 104(f)(iii)--Equities.
    \16\ Rule 104(h)(iii)(A)--Equities. A ``Conditional
Transaction'' is a DMM's transaction in a security that establishes
or increases a position and reaches across the market to trade as
the contra-side to the Exchange-published bid or offer. Rule
104(h)(i)--Equities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Depth Guidelines and PPPs, as described in Rules 104(f)(ii) and
(iii) and 104(h)(ii) and (iii)(A)--Equities, would apply to UTP
Securities; however, the Exchange would determine when implementation
of the provisions would occur, and in any case it would not be until at
least six months after the Commission's approval of this filing. The
phased implementation would give the Exchange time to gather data to
develop and phase in appropriate guidelines for UTP Securities.\17\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ For similar reasons, the Exchange implemented depth
guidelines under the current UTP Pilot Program six months after
approval of those rule changes. See supra note 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to amend the following rules to change
references from ``Nasdaq Securities'' to ``UTP Securities'': Rules 500,
501,\18\ 502, 504, 506, 508,\19\ 509, 511, 512, 515, 516, and 518--
Equities. The Exchange also proposes to amend Rules 510 and 522--
Equities to change references from ``Exchange Traded Fund'' to ``ETP.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \18\ In addition to the other amendments to Rule 501--Equities
identified in this filing, a reference to trading pauses under the
LULD Pilot Program was added to situations in which the market for a
UTP Security could be manual or ``slow.''
    \19\ Rule 508(b)(2)--Equities also added a reference to trading
pauses under the LULD Pilot Program to situations in which the
market for a UTP Security could be manual or ``slow.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed amendments to the 500
Series rules would encourage the additional utilization of, and
interaction with, the Exchange, and provide market participants with
improved price discovery, increased liquidity, more competitive quotes,
and greater price improvement for UTP Securities. A DMM in each UTP
Security would be required to facilitate trading, which would supply
liquidity as needed. By allowing a broader set of securities to be
traded on the Exchange under the UTP Pilot Program, the proposed
revision gives market participants more flexibility in deciding on
which venue to trade UTP Securities, consistent with trading needs of
such participants.
Amendments to DMM Unit Minimum Capital Requirements
    The Exchange proposes to amend Supplementary Material .20 to Rule
103--Equities to apply a uniform minimum net capital standard to DMM
units, regardless of the type of security

in which the DMM unit is registered. Under the current version of
Supplementary Material .20, each DMM unit, other than those registered
in Structured Products,\20\ must maintain tentative net capital in the
amount of the greater of $1,000,000 or an amount sufficient to assume a
position of sixty trading units of each security in which the DMM unit
is registered. DMM units that are registered in Structured Products,
however, must maintain tentative net capital in the amount of the
greater of $500,000 for each Structured Product or $1,000,000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \20\ Rule 123D(4)--Equities defines ``Structured Products'' as
``securities listed pursuant to Sections 104 (Bonds and Debentures),
106 (Currency and Index Warrants), or 107 (Other Securities) of the
Company Guide or pursuant to Rules 1000-AEMI and 1001 et seq.
(Portfolio Depositary Receipts), 1000A-AEMI and 1001A et seq. (Index
Fund Shares), 1000B et seq. (Managed Fund Shares), 1200-AEMI and
1201 et seq. (Trading of Trust Issued Receipts), 1200A-AEMI and
1201A et seq. (Commodity-Based Trust Shares), 1400 et seq. (Trading
of Paired Trust Shares), 1500-AEMI and 1501 et seq. (Trading of
Partnership Units), or 1600 et seq. (Trading of Trust Units).'' ETPs
fall within the definition of Structured Products.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange proposes to eliminate the distinction between DMM
units registered in Structured Products and DMM units registered in
other securities. The revised version of Supplementary Material .20
eliminates the special net capital requirement applicable to DMM units
registered in Structured Products, requiring all DMM units to maintain
tentative net capital in the amount of the greater of $1,000,000 or an
amount sufficient to assume a position of sixty trading units of each
security in which the DMM is registered.
    The Exchange does not believe that DMMs registered in Structured
Products should be treated differently from DMMs registered in other
securities for net capital purposes. The purpose of the net capital
requirement is to ensure that DMM units maintain sufficient liquidity
to carry out their obligations to maintain an orderly market in their
assigned securities during periods of market stress. The Exchange
believes that the uniform minimum net capital standard will be adequate
to support the liquidity needs of DMM units to meet their obligations
to the market during periods of market stress. Thus, the Exchange
proposes to eliminate disparate treatment for DMM units registered in
Structured Products with respect to net capital requirements.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange. In particular,
the Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with (i) Section
6(b) of the Act,\21\ in general, and furthers the objectives of Section
6(b)(5),\22\ in particular, in that it is designed to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, to protect investors and the public interest; (ii) Section
11A(a)(1) of the Act,\23\ in that it seeks to ensure the economically
efficient execution of securities transactions and fair competition
among brokers and dealers and among exchange markets; and (iii) Section
12(f) of the Act,\24\ which governs the trading of securities pursuant
to unlisted trading privileges consistent with the maintenance of fair
and orderly markets, the protection of investors and the public
interest, and the impact of extending the existing markets for such
securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \22\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \23\ 15 U.S.C. 78k-1(a)(1).
    \24\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change will remove
impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market
because expanding the number of securities available to trade on the
Exchange on an unlisted trading privileges basis will enhance
intermarket competition for such securities. Specifically, the Exchange
believes that expanding the set of securities covered by the UTP Pilot
Program would encourage the additional utilization of, and interaction
with, the Exchange, thereby providing market participants with
additional price discovery, increased liquidity, more competitive
quotes, and potentially greater price improvement for UTP Securities.
The Exchange also believes that eliminating disparate treatment of DMM
units registered in Structured Products for net capital purposes will
remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open
market because a uniform minimum net capital standard will equalize the
net capital requirements for a DMM registered in Structured Products as
compared with other securities.
    Finally, the Exchange believes that the proposed elimination of
disparate treatment of DMM units registered in Structured Products for
net capital purposes in favor of a uniform net capital requirement
applicable to all DMM units is designed to protect investors and the
public interest and promote just and equitable principles of trade. The
Exchange believes the proposed rule change will protect investors and
the public interest because the uniform standard will adequately
support the liquidity needs of DMM units to enable them to meet their
obligations during times of market stress.\25\ Further, the proposed
rule change will promote just and equitable principles of trade because
the Exchange does not believe that DMM units registered in Structured
Products should be treated differently from DMM units registered in
other securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ Additionally, the Exchange notes that the net capital
requirements of Rule 103--Equities are in addition to the net
capital requirements applicable to all broker-dealers pursuant Rule
15c3-1, promulgated under the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Specifically, the Exchange
believes that expanding the set of securities permitted to be traded on
the Exchange pursuant to unlisted trading privileges will promote
competition in the trading of UTP Securities by providing an additional
market for the trading of such securities, and thereby provide market
participants with opportunities for improved price discovery, increased
liquidity through additional market making, more competitive quotes,
and greater price improvement. Additionally, the Exchange believes that
eliminating disparate treatment of Structured Products for net capital
purposes will not impose any burden on competition because DMM units
registered in Structured Products and DMM units registered in other
securities will be required to meet the same minimum net capital
standard.

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

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

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

    The Exchange has filed the proposed rule change pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act \26\ and Rule 19b-

4(f)(6) thereunder.\27\ Because the proposed rule change does not (i)
Significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, the proposed rule
change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act
and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) thereunder.\28\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \26\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
    \27\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii)
requires the Exchange to give the Commission written notice of the
Exchange's intent to file the proposed rule change, along with a
brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at least
five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. The
Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
    \28\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is: (i)
Necessary or appropriate in the public interest; (ii) for the
protection of investors; or (iii) otherwise in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) \29\
of the Act to determine whether the proposed rule should be approved or
disapproved.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2006-20-11 for
certain The Boeing Company Model 757-200, -200CB, and -200PF series
airplanes. AD 2006-20-11 required initial and repetitive detailed or
high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for cracks around the
rivets at the upper fastener row of the skin lap splice of the
fuselage, and repair of any crack found. This new AD no longer allows
the detailed inspections and instead requires repetitive external HFEC
inspections for cracking of the skin lap splices of the fuselage, and
repair if necessary. This AD was prompted by an evaluation done by the
design approval holder (DAH) indicating that the fuselage skin lap
splice is subject to widespread fatigue damage (WFD). We are issuing
this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking at certain skin lap
splice locations of the fuselage, which could result in reduced
structural integrity and rapid decompression of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective December 9, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of December 9,
2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2006-20-11, Amendment 39-14781 (71 FR 58485,
October 4, 2006) (``AD 2006-20-11''). AD 2006-20-11 applied to certain
The Boeing Company Model 757-200, -200CB, and -200PF series airplanes.
The NPRM published in the Federal Register on May 12, 2016 (81 FR
29508) (``the NPRM''). The NPRM was prompted by an evaluation done by
the DAH indicating that the fuselage skin lap splice is subject to WFD.
The NPRM proposed to require repetitive external HFEC inspections for
cracking of the skin lap splices of the fuselage, and repair if
necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue
cracking at certain skin lap splice locations of the fuselage, which
could result in reduced structural integrity and rapid decompression 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.

Support of the NPRM

    FedEx provided comments that supported the intent of the NPRM.

Request To Change Compliance Time

    Boeing and United Airlines (UA) asked that we change the compliance
time for the repetitive HFEC inspections specified in paragraph (j) of
the proposed AD. Boeing learned that some operators began doing
inspections long before the 37,500-flight-cycle threshold was attained.
Boeing stated that the compliance table in Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015,
provided grace periods for doing the HFEC inspections after doing
previous inspections, but did not provide for previous inspections
being done within the grace period or before the required threshold of
37,500 flight cycles, whichever occurs later. Boeing added that, as
written, the service information specifies repetitive inspections
within 3,000 flight cycles after any previous detailed inspection and
within 12,000 flight cycles after any previous HFEC inspection--even if
the interval occurred before the 37,500-flight-cycle threshold.
    UA stated that if an operator decided to proactively accomplish
either a detailed or HFEC inspection before the specified compliance
time in, and in accordance with either Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2, 2005 or Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015, then
the inspection would have to be repeated within 3,000 or 12,000 flight
cycles, depending on which inspection was previously done. UA stated
that this compliance time could be much sooner than the intended 37,500
flight cycles. UA noted that it discussed this problem with Boeing and
hoped it could be clarified in the NPRM.
    We agree with the commenters' requests to change the compliance
time for the repetitive HFEC inspections specified in paragraph (j) of
this AD. According to the proposed AD, operators that accomplished the
inspections early would be required to do the inspections before
reaching the inspection threshold specified in paragraph (j) of the
proposed AD. It was not the intent of Boeing or the FAA to require that
the airplane be inspected

prior to reaching the required threshold. Therefore, we have added new
paragraphs (j)(1) and (j)(2) to this AD to include the additional
compliance times.

Effect of Winglets on Accomplishment of the Proposed Actions

    Aviation Partners Boeing stated that accomplishing the supplemental
type certificate (STC) ST01518SE does not affect compliance with the
actions specified in the NPRM.
    We agree with the commenter. We have redesignated paragraph (c) of
the proposed AD as (c)(1) and added a new paragraph (c)(2) to this AD
to state that installation of STC ST01518SE does not affect the ability
to accomplish the actions required by this final rule. Therefore, for
airplanes on which STC ST01518SE is installed, a ``change in product''
alternative method of compliance (AMOC) approval request is not
necessary to comply with the requirements of 14 CFR 39.17.

Request To Include Approved Repairs in Revised Service Information

    UA asked that instructions for approved repairs be incorporated
into the next revision of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin
757-53-0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015, as an AMOC to the
NPRM. UA stated that the lack of approved repairs in the service
information adds a significant burden to operators, Boeing Designated
Airworthiness Representatives, and the Los Angeles Aircraft
Certification Office.
    We acknowledge the commenter's concern. If the service information
is revised to include instructions for approved repairs, affected
operators may request approval to use the later revision of the
referenced service information as an AMOC, under the provisions of
paragraph (m) of this AD. We have made no change to this AD in this
regard.

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.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We reviewed Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090,
Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015. The service information describes
procedures for repetitive external HFEC inspections for cracking of the
skin lap splices of the fuselage. This service information is
reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it
through their normal course of business or by the means identified in
the ADDRESSES section.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 572 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                                                     Estimated Costs

                                        inspection cycle.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    We have determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under 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:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

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

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2006-20-11, Amendment 39-14781 (71 FR 58485, October 4, 2006), and
adding the following new AD:

2016-22-09 The Boeing Company: Amendment 39-18698; Docket No. FAA-
2016-6669; Directorate Identifier 2015-NM-191-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective December 9, 2016.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2006-20-11, Amendment 39-14781 (71 FR 58485,
October 4, 2006) (``AD 2006-20-11''). This AD affects AD 2006-11-11,
Amendment 39-14615 (71 FR 30278, May 26, 2006) (``AD 2006-11-11'').

(c) Applicability

    (1) This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 757-200, -200CB,
and -200PF series airplanes, certificated in any category, as
identified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090,
Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015.
    (2) Installation of Supplemental Type Certificate (STC)
ST01518SE (http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgSTC.nsf/0/38B606833BBD98B386257FAA00602538?OpenDocument&Highlight=st01518se)
does not affect the ability to accomplish the actions required by
this AD. Therefore, for airplanes on which STC ST01518SE is
installed, a ``change in product'' alternative method of compliance
(AMOC) approval request is not necessary to comply with the
requirements of 14 CFR 39.17.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 53, Fuselage.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by an evaluation done by the design
approval holder indicating that the fuselage skin lap splice is
subject to widespread fatigue damage. We are issuing this AD to
detect and correct fatigue cracking at certain skin lap splice
locations of the fuselage, which could result in reduced structural
integrity and rapid decompression of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Retained Initial and Repetitive Inspections, With Terminating
Action

    This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (f) of AD
2006-20-11, with terminating action. Do initial and repetitive
detailed or high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for
cracking around the rivets at the upper fastener row of the skin lap
splice of the fuselage by doing all the actions in accordance with
the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2, 2005, except as provided by
paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD. Do the inspections at the
applicable times specified in Paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of
Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2,
2005; except where Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-
0090, dated June 2, 2005, specifies a compliance time ``after the
original release date of this service bulletin,'' this AD requires
compliance after November 8, 2006 (the effective date of AD 2006-20-
11). Accomplishing an inspection required by paragraph (j) of this
AD terminates the inspections required by this paragraph.

(h) Retained Repair, With No Changes

    This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD
2006-20-11, with no changes. If any crack is found during any
inspection required by paragraph (g) of this AD: Before further
flight, repair the crack using a method approved in accordance with
the procedures specified in paragraph (m) of this AD.

(i) Retained Provision Regarding Reporting, With No Changes

    This paragraph restates the provision specified in paragraph (h)
of AD 2006-20-11, with no changes. Although Boeing Special Attention
Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2, 2005, recommends that
inspection results be reported to the manufacturer, this AD does not
include that requirement.

(j) New Repetitive Inspections

    At the applicable time specified in table 1 of paragraph 1.E.,
``Compliance,'' of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-
0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015, except as provided by
paragraphs (j)(1), (j)(2), and (l)(1) of this AD: Do an external
HFEC inspection for cracking of the skin lap splices of the
fuselage, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of
Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, Revision 1,
dated November 19, 2015. Repeat the inspection thereafter at the
applicable times specified in table 1 of paragraph 1.E.,
``Compliance,'' of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-
0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015. Doing an inspection
required by this paragraph terminates the inspections required by
paragraph (g) of this AD.
    (1) For airplanes on which Option 1 (detailed inspection) of
Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2,
2005, has been done: Repeat the HFEC inspection before the
accumulation of 37,500 total flight cycles, or within 3,000 flight
cycles after accomplishing the most recent detailed inspection,
whichever occurs later.
    (2) For airplanes on which Option 2 (HFEC inspection) of Boeing
Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2, 2005,
has been done: Repeat the HFEC inspection before the accumulation of
37,500 total flight cycles, or within 12,000 flight cycles after
accomplishing the most recent HFEC inspection, whichever occurs
later.

(k) Repair for Cracking Found During Inspections Required by Paragraph
(j) of This AD

    If any cracking is found during any inspection required by
paragraph (j) of this AD, repair before further flight using a
method approved in accordance with the procedures specified in
paragraph (m) of this AD.

(l) Exceptions to Service Information

    (1) Where Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090,
Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015, specifies a compliance time
``after the Revision 1 date of this service bulletin,'' this AD
requires compliance within the specified compliance time after the
effective date of this AD.
    (2) Although Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-
0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015, specifies to contact
Boeing for repair instructions, and specifies that action as ``RC''
(Required for Compliance), paragraph (k) of this AD requires repair
before further flight using a method approved in accordance with the
procedures specified in paragraph (m) of this AD.

(m) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (1) The Manager, Los Angeles 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 CFR 39.19, send your request to your principal inspector or
local Flight Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending
information directly to the manager of the ACO, send it to the
attention of the person identified in paragraph (n)(1) of this AD.
Information may be emailed to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    (2) Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate
principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager
of the local flight standards district office/certificate holding
district office.
    (3) An AMOC that provides an acceptable level of safety may be
used for any repair, modification, or alteration required by this AD
if it is approved by the Boeing Commercial Airplanes Organization
Designation Authorization (ODA) that has been authorized by the
Manager, Los Angeles ACO, to make those findings. To be approved the
repair method, modification deviation, or alteration deviation must
meet the certification basis of the airplane and the approval must
specifically refer to this AD.
    (4) AMOCs approved for AD 2006-20-11, are approved as AMOCs for
the corresponding provisions of paragraphs (g) and (j) of this AD.
    (5) Except as required by paragraph (l)(2) of this AD: For
service information that contains steps that are labeled as Required
for Compliance (RC), the provisions of paragraphs (m)(5)(i) and
(m)(5)(ii) apply.
    (i) The steps labeled as RC, including substeps under an RC step
and any figures identified in an RC step, must be done to comply
with the AD. If a step or substep is labeled ``RC Exempt,'' then the
RC requirement is removed from that step or

substep. An AMOC is required for any deviations to RC steps,
including substeps and identified figures.
    (ii) Steps not labeled as RC may be deviated from using accepted
methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or inspection
program without obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided the RC
steps, including substeps and identified figures, can still be done
as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy
condition.
    (6) The inspections specified in paragraph (g) of this AD are
approved as an AMOC to paragraph (h) of AD 2006-11-11 for the
inspections of Significant Structural Items (SSI) 53-30-07 and 53-
60-07 (fuselage lap splices, left and right upper fastener row)
listed in the May 2003 or June 2005 revision of the Boeing 757
Maintenance Planning Data (MPD) Document D622N001-9. This AMOC
applies only to the common areas identified in paragraphs (m)(6)(i)
and (m)(6)(ii) of this AD. All provisions of AD 2006-11-11 that are
not specifically referenced in the above statements remain fully
applicable and must be complied with as specified in AD 2006-11-11.
Operators may revise their maintenance or inspection program with
these alternative inspections for common areas.
    (i) Common areas inspected before the effective date of this AD,
in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special
Attention Service Bulletin 757-53-0090, dated June 2, 2005.
    (ii) Common areas inspected in accordance with the
Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service
Bulletin 757-53-0090, Revision 1, dated November 19, 2015.
