SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following is a summary of the
application. The complete application may be obtained via the
Commission's website by searching for the file number, or for an
applicant using the Company name box, at http://www.sec.gov/search/search.htm or by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Applicants' Representations:
    1. The Initial Fund is a newly organized Maryland corporation that
is registered under the Act as a closed-end management investment
company. The Initial Fund is classified as a diversified investment
company as defined under section 5(b)(1) of the Act. The Initial Fund
operates as an ``interval fund'' pursuant to rule 23c-3 under the Act
and continuously offers its shares.
    2. The Adviser is a Delaware limited liability company registered
as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as
amended. The Adviser serves as investment adviser to the Initial Fund.
    3. Applicants seek an order to permit the Initial Fund to issue
multiple classes

of shares, each having its own fee and expense structure, and to impose
asset-based distribution and service fees, and EWCs.
    4. Applicants request that the order also apply to any continuously
offered registered closed-end management investment company that has
been previously organized or that may be organized in the future for
which the Adviser or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under
common control with the Adviser, or any successor in interest to any
such entity,\1\ acts as investment adviser, and which operates as an
interval fund pursuant to rule 23c-3 under the Act or provides periodic
liquidity with respect to its shares pursuant to rule 13e-4 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Exchange Act'') (each, a
``Future Fund'' and together with the Initial Fund, the ``Funds'').\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ A successor in interest is limited to an entity that results
from a reorganization into another jurisdiction or a change in the
type of business organization.
    \2\ Any Fund relying on this relief in the future will do so in
compliance with the terms and conditions of the application.
Applicants represent that each entity presently intending to rely on
the requested relief is listed as an applicant.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    5. The Initial Fund makes a continuous public offering of its
shares. Applicants state that additional offerings by any Fund relying
on the order may be on a private placement or public offering basis.
Shares of the Funds will not be listed on any securities exchange, nor
quoted on any quotation medium. The Funds do not expect there to be a
secondary trading market for their shares.
    6. If the requested relief is granted, the Initial Fund may offer
classes of shares in addition to its initial share class, with each
class having its own fee and expense structure. The terms of any
additional classes may differ from the initial class pursuant to and in
compliance with rule 18f-3 under the Act.
    7. Applicants state that shares of a Fund may be subject to a
repurchase fee at a rate of no greater than 2% of the shareholder's
repurchase proceeds if the interval between the date of purchase of the
shares and the valuation date with respect to the repurchase of those
shares is less than one year. Any repurchase fee will apply equally to
all classes of shares of a Fund, consistent with section 18 of the Act
and rule 18f-3 thereunder. Further, applicants represent that to the
extent a Fund determines to waive, impose scheduled variations of, or
eliminate any repurchase fee, it will do so consistently with the
requirements of rule 22d-1 under the Act as if the repurchase fee were
a CDSL (defined below) and as if the Fund were an open-end investment
company and the Fund's waiver of, scheduled variation in, or
elimination of, any such repurchase fee will apply uniformly to all
shareholders of the Fund regardless of class.
    8. Applicants state that the Initial Fund adopted a fundamental
policy to repurchase a specified percentage of its shares (no less than
5% and not more than 25%) at net asset value on a periodic basis. Such
repurchase offers will be conducted pursuant to rule 23c-3 under the
Act.\3\ Each Future Fund will likewise adopt a fundamental investment
policy in compliance with rule 23c-3 and make periodic repurchase
offers to its shareholders, or provide periodic liquidity with respect
to its shares pursuant to rule 13e-4 under the Exchange Act. Any
repurchase offers made by the Funds will be made to all holders of
shares of each such Fund.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Applicants submit that rule 23c-3 and Regulation M under the
Exchange Act permit an interval fund to make repurchase offers to
repurchase its shares while engaging in a continuous offering of its
shares pursuant to rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    9. Applicants represent that any asset-based distribution and/or
service fees for each class of shares of the Funds will comply with the
provisions of FINRA Rule 2341 (``Sales Charge Rule'').\4\ Applicants
also represent that each Fund will disclose in its prospectus the fees,
expenses, and other characteristics of each class of shares offered for
sale by the prospectus, as is required for open-end multiple class
funds under Form N-1A.\5\ As is required for open-end funds, each Fund
will disclose fund expenses borne by shareholders during the reporting
period in shareholder reports, and describe in their prospectuses any
arrangements that result in breakpoints in or elimination of sales
loads in its prospectus.\6\ In addition, applicants will comply with
applicable enhanced fee disclosure requirements for fund of funds,
including registered funds of hedge funds.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Any reference to the Sales Charge Rule includes any
successor or replacement Sales Charge Rule that may be adopted by
the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (``FINRA'').
    \5\ In all respects other than class-by-class disclosure, each
Fund will comply with the requirements of Form N-2.
    \6\ See Shareholder Reports and Quarterly Portfolio Disclosure
of Registered Management Investment Companies, Investment Company
Act Release No. 26372 (Feb. 27, 2004) (adopting release) (requiring
open-end investment companies to disclose fund expenses in
shareholder reports); and Disclosure of Breakpoint Discounts by
Mutual Funds, Investment Company Act Release No. 26464 (June 7,
2004) (adopting release) (requiring open-end investment companies to
provide prospectus disclosure of certain sales load information).
    \7\ Fund of Funds Investments, Investment Company Act Rel. Nos.
26198 (Oct. 1, 2003) (proposing release) and 27399 (Jun. 20, 2006)
(adopting release). See also Rules 12d1-1, et seq. of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    10. Each Fund will comply with any requirements that the Commission
or FINRA may adopt regarding disclosure at the point of sale and in
transaction confirmations about the costs and conflicts of interest
arising out of the distribution of open-end investment company shares,
and regarding prospectus disclosure of sales loads and revenue sharing
arrangements, as if those requirements applied to each Fund. In
addition, each Fund will contractually require that any distributor of
the Fund's shares comply with such requirements in connection with the
distribution of such Fund's shares.
    11. Applicants state that each Fund may impose an EWC on shares
submitted for repurchase that have been held less than a specified
period and may grant waivers of the EWCs on repurchases in connection
with certain categories of shareholders or transactions to be
established from time to time. Applicants state that each Fund will
apply the EWC (and any waivers or scheduled variations of the EWC)
uniformly to all shareholders in a given class and consistently with
the requirements of rule 22d-1 under the Act as if the Fund were an
open-end investment company.
    13. Each Fund operating as an interval fund pursuant to rule 23c-3
under the Act may offer its shareholders an exchange feature under
which the shareholders of the Fund may, in connection with the Fund's
periodic repurchase offers, exchange their shares of the Fund for
shares of the same class of (i) registered open-end investment
companies or (ii) other registered closed-end investment companies that
comply with rule 23c-3 under the Act and continuously offer their
shares at net asset value, that are in the Fund's group of investment
companies (collectively, the ``Other Funds''). Shares of a Fund
operating pursuant to rule 23c-3 that are exchanged for shares of Other
Funds will be included as part of the amount of the repurchase offer
amount for such Fund as specified in rule 23c-3 under the Act. Any
exchange option will comply with rule 11a-3 under the Act, as if the
Fund were an open-end investment company subject to rule 11a-3. In
complying with rule 11a-3, each Fund will treat an EWC as

if it were a contingent deferred sales load (``CDSL'').\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ A CDSL, which may be assessed by an open-end fund pursuant
to rule 6c-10 of the Act, is a distribution related charge payable
to the distributor. Pursuant to the requested order, any EWC will
likewise be a distribution-related charge payable to the distributor
as distinguished from a repurchase fee, which is payable to a Fund
to reimburse the Fund for costs incurred in liquidating securities
in the Fund's portfolio.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Applicants' Legal Analysis:
    Multiple Classes of Shares
    1. Section 18(a)(2) of the Act makes it unlawful for a closed-end
investment company to issue a senior security that is a stock unless
certain requirements are met. Applicants state that the creation of
multiple classes of shares of the Funds may violate section 18(a)(2)
because the Funds may not meet such requirements with respect to a
class of shares that may be a senior security.
    2. Section 18(c) of the Act provides, in relevant part, that a
registered closed-end investment company may not issue or sell any
senior security that is stock if, immediately thereafter, the company
has outstanding more than one class of senior security that is stock.
Section 18(g) of the Act defines ``senior security'' that is stock as
``any stock of a class having priority over any other class as to
distribution of assets or payment of dividends''. Applicants state that
the creation of multiple classes of Shares of a Fund proposed herein
may result in Shares of a class having ``priority over another class as
to payment of dividends,'' and being deemed a ``senior security,''
because shareholders of different classes may pay different
distribution fees, different shareholder services fees, and any other
expense (as described elsewhere in this notice). Accordingly,
applicants state that the creation of multiple classes of Shares of a
Fund with different fees and expenses may be prohibited by section
18(c).
    3. Section 18(i) of the Act provides, in relevant part, that each
share of stock issued by a registered management investment company
will be a voting stock and have equal voting rights with every other
outstanding voting stock. Applicants state that multiple classes of
shares of the Funds may violate section 18(i) of the Act because each
class would be entitled to exclusive voting rights with respect to
matters solely related to that class.
    4. Section 6(c) of the Act provides that the Commission may exempt
any person, security or transaction or any class or classes of persons,
securities or transactions from any provision of the Act, or from any
rule or regulation under the Act, if and to the extent such exemption
is necessary or appropriate in the public interest and consistent with
the protection of investors and the purposes fairly intended by the
policy and provisions of the Act. Applicants request an exemption under
section 6(c) from sections 18(a)(2), 18(c) and 18(i) to permit the
Funds to issue multiple classes of shares.
    5. Applicants submit that the proposed allocation of expenses
relating to distribution and voting rights among multiple classes is
equitable and will not discriminate against any group or class of
shareholders. Applicants submit that the proposed arrangements would
permit a Fund to facilitate the distribution of its securities and
provide investors with a broader choice of shareholder services.
Applicants assert that the proposed closed-end investment company
multiple class structure does not raise the concerns underlying section
18 of the Act to any greater degree than open-end investment companies'
multiple class structures. Applicants state that each Fund will comply
with the provisions of rule 18f-3 as if it were an open-end investment
company.

Early Withdrawal Charges

    1. Section 23(c) of the Act provides, in relevant part, that no
registered closed-end investment company shall purchase securities of
which it is the issuer, except: (a) On a securities exchange or other
open market; (b) pursuant to tenders, after reasonable opportunity to
submit tenders given to all holders of securities of the class to be
purchased; or (c) under other circumstances as the Commission may
permit by rules and regulations or orders for the protection of
investors.
    2. Rule 23c-3 under the Act permits an interval fund to make
repurchase offers of between five and twenty-five percent of its
outstanding shares at net asset value at periodic intervals pursuant to
a fundamental policy of the interval fund. Rule 23c-3(b)(1) under the
Act permits an interval fund to deduct from repurchase proceeds only a
repurchase fee, not to exceed two percent of the proceeds, that is paid
to the interval fund and is reasonably intended to compensate the fund
for expenses directly related to the repurchase.
    3. Section 23(c)(3) provides that the Commission may issue an order
that would permit a closed-end investment company to repurchase its
shares in circumstances in which the repurchase is made in a manner or
on a basis that does not unfairly discriminate against any holders of
the class or classes of securities to be purchased.
    4. Applicants request relief under section 6(c), discussed above,
and section 23(c)(3) from rule 23c-3 to the extent necessary for the
Funds to impose EWCs on shares of the Funds submitted for repurchase
that have been held for less than a specified period.
    5. Applicants state that the EWCs they intend to impose are
functionally similar to CDSLs imposed by open-end investment companies
under rule 6c-10 under the Act. Rule 6c-10 permits open-end investment
companies to impose CDSLs, subject to certain conditions. Applicants
note that rule 6c-10 is grounded in policy considerations supporting
the employment of CDSLs where there are adequate safeguards for the
investor and state that the same policy considerations support
imposition of EWCs in the interval fund context. In addition,
applicants state that EWCs may be necessary for the distributor to
recover distribution costs. Applicants represent that any EWC imposed
by the Funds will comply with rule 6c-10 under the Act as if the rule
were applicable to closed-end investment companies. The Funds will
disclose EWCs in accordance with the requirements of Form N-1A
concerning CDSLs as if the Fund were an open-end investment company.

Asset-Based Service and Distribution Fees

    1. Section 17(d) of the Act and rule 17d-1 under the Act prohibit
an affiliated person of (or principal underwriter for) a registered
investment company, or an affiliated person of such person, acting as
principal, from participating in or effecting any transaction in
connection with any joint enterprise or joint arrangement in which the
investment company participates unless the Commission issues an order
permitting the transaction. In reviewing applications submitted under
section 17(d) and rule 17d-1, the Commission considers whether the
participation of the investment company in a joint enterprise or joint
arrangement is consistent with the provisions, policies and purposes of
the Act, and the extent to which the participation is on a basis
different from or less advantageous than that of other participants.
    2. Rule 17d-3 under the Act provides an exemption from section
17(d) and rule 17d-1 to permit open-end investment companies to enter
into distribution arrangements pursuant to rule 12b-1 under the Act.
Applicants request an order under section 17(d) and rule 17d-1 under
the Act to the extent necessary to permit the Funds to impose asset-
based distribution and/or service fees. Applicants have agreed to
comply

with rules 12b-1 and 17d-3 as if those rules applied to closed-end
investment companies, which they believe will resolve any concerns that
might arise in connection with a Fund financing the distribution of its
shares through asset-based service and distribution fees.
    3. For the reasons stated above, applicants submit that the
exemptions requested under section 6(c) are necessary and appropriate
in the public interest and are consistent with the protection of
investors and the purposes fairly intended by the policy and provisions
of the Act. Applicants further submit that the relief requested
pursuant to section 23(c)(3) will be consistent with the protection of
investors and will ensure that applicants do not unfairly discriminate
against any holders of the class of securities to be purchased.
Finally, applicants state that the Funds' imposition of asset-based
distribution and/or service fees is consistent with the provisions,
policies, and purposes of the Act and does not involve participation on
a basis different from or less advantageous than that of other
participants.
    Applicants' Condition:
    Applicants agree that any order granting the requested relief will
be subject to the following condition:
    Each Fund relying on the order will comply with the provisions of
rules 6c-10, 12b-1, 17d-3, 18f-3, 22d-1, and, where applicable, 11a-3
under the Act, as amended from time to time, as if those rules applied
to closed-end management investment companies, and will comply with the
Sales Charge Rule, as amended from time to time, as if that rule
applied to all closed-end management investment companies.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Public Notice for Waiver for Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance at
Fort Worth Spinks Airport, Fort Worth, TX

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a
proposal to change a portion of the airport from aeronautical use to
nonaeronautical use and to authorize the conversion of the airport
property. The proposal consists of one parcel of land containing a
total of approximately 2.583.
    The property was acquired using City and FAA funds through the AIP
Program from 1983-1987. The land comprising this parcel is outside the
forecasted need for aviation development and, thus, is no longer needed
for indirect or direct aeronautical use. The airport wishes to develop
this land for compatible commercial, nonaeronautical use. The income
from the conversion of this parcel will benefit the aviation community
by reinvestment in the airport.
    Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially
assist in the conversion of the subject airport property nor a
determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. The
disposition of proceeds from the conversion of the airport property
will be in accordance with FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning the
Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February
16, 1999. In accordance with Section 47107(h) of Title 49, United
States Code, this notice is required to be published in the Federal
Register 30 days before modifying the land-use assurance that requires
the property to be used for an aeronautical purpose.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before April 4, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this document to Mr. Cameron Bryan, Federal
Aviation Administration, Acting Manager, Texas Airports Development
Office, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Overview

    MNA has determined that certain MY 2017 2021 Maserati Levante motor
vehicles do not fully comply with the requirements of paragraph S4.3(c)
of FMVSS No. 110, Tire selection and rims and motor home/recreation
vehicle trailer load carrying capacity information for motor vehicles
with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or less (49 CFR
571.110). MNA filed a noncompliance report dated June 7, 2021, pursuant
to 49 CFR part 573, Defect and Noncompliance Responsibility and
Reports. MNA subsequently petitioned NHTSA on June 24, 2021, for an
exemption from the notification and remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C.
Chapter 301 on the basis that this noncompliance is inconsequential as
it relates to motor vehicle safety, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h) and 49 CFR part 556, Exemption for Inconsequential Defect or
Noncompliance.
    This notice of receipt of MNA's petition is published under 49
U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any Agency decision or
other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of the petition.

II. Vehicles Involved

    Approximately 2,917 MY 2017 2021 Maserati Levante motor vehicles
equipped with 21-inch and 22-inch tires and manufactured between July
14, 2016, and May 3, 2021, are potentially involved.

III. Noncompliance

    MNA explains that the noncompliance is that the subject vehicles
are equipped with a vehicle placard affixed to the driver's side B-
pillar erroneously understating the maximum permissible cold tire
pressure and therefore, do not fully meet the requirements specified in
paragraph S4.3(c) of FMVSS No. 110. Specifically, the vehicle placards
for the subject vehicles state that the rear 265/40 R21 (105Y) XL and
105W XL tires have a maximum cold tire pressure of 36 psi, when it
should state a maximum cold tire pressure of 38 psi, the front 265/35
ZR22 (102Y) XL tires state a maximum cold tire pressure of 33 psi, when
it should state a maximum cold tire pressure of 36 psi, and the rear
295/30 ZR22 (103Y) XL tires state a maximum cold tire pressure of 36
psi, when it should state a maximum cold tire pressure of 40 psi.

IV. Rule Requirements

    Paragraph S4.3(c) of FMVSS No. 110 includes the requirements
relevant to this petition. Each vehicle, except for a trailer or
incomplete vehicle, shall show the information specified in S4.3(a)
through (g), and may show, at the manufacturer's option, the
information specified in S4.3(h) and (i), on a placard permanently
affixed to the driver's side B-pillar. This information shall be in the
English language and conform in color and format, not including the
border surrounding the entire placard, as shown in the example set
forth in Figure 1 in this standard. At the manufacturer's

option, the information specified in S4.3 (c), (d), and, as
appropriate, (h) and (i) may be shown, alternatively to being shown on
the placard, on a tire inflation pressure label which must conform in
color and format, not including the border surrounding the entire
label, as shown in the example set forth in Figure 2 in this standard.

V. Summary of MNA's Petition

    The following views and arguments presented in this section, ``V.
Summary of MNA's Petition,'' are the views and arguments provided by
MNA. They have not been evaluated by the Agency and do not reflect the
views of the Agency. MNA describes the subject noncompliance and
contends that the noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to
motor vehicle safety.
    In support of its petition, MNA submitted the following reasoning:
    1. The incorrect pressure values are all within the range of
acceptable tire inflation and would not cause a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (``TPMS'') alert.
    a. The affected Maserati Levante vehicles are compliant with FMVSS
No. 138.
    b. Consistent with FMVSS No. 138, the TPMS illuminates at equal to
or less than the pressure 25 percent below the correct vehicle
manufacturer's recommended cold inflation pressure. The TPMS warning
telltale will illuminate prior to the tire pressure dropping to the
range of 24.7-27 PSI on the affected Maserati Levante vehicles, which
is significantly above the 23.2 PSI requirement called out, and tested
to, in FMVSS No. 139 (discussed below).
    c. Maserati believes the warning provided by the TPMS will give
drivers ample time to check and inflate tires well before low tire
inflation becomes a safety concern.
    2. The subject tires passed a low-inflation-pressure performance
test.
    a. The affected Maserati Levante vehicles are equipped with tires
that are compliant with FMVSS No. 139.
    b. Tire manufacturers are required to certify the tires meet all
applicable requirements of FMVSS No. 139.
    c. FMVSS No. 139 specifies a low-inflation-pressure performance
test in which the tire is loaded to its maximum tire load capacity and
inflated to only 160 kPa (23.2 PSI), significantly less than the TPMS
telltale activation pressure for the subject Maserati Levante vehicles.
In order to pass this test, the tires are loaded to 100 percent of the
tire's maximum load-carrying capacity and then run on a test axle for
1.5 hours at 23.2 PSI.
    3. MNA is not aware of any crashes, injuries, or customer
complaints associated with this condition.
    4. NHTSA has previously granted inconsequential treatment for FMVSS
No. 110 noncompliance for incorrect vehicle placard values; see
examples below:
    a. General Motors, LLC, 83 FR 24162 (May 24, 2018);
    b. Volkswagen Group of America, Inc., 81 FR 38772 (June 14, 2016);
and
    c. Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC, 82 FR 17515 (April 11, 2017).
    MNA concludes that the subject noncompliance is inconsequential as
it relates to motor vehicle safety and that its petition to be exempted
from providing notification of the noncompliance, as required by 49
U.S.C. 30118, and a remedy for the noncompliance, as required by 49
U.S.C. 30120, should be granted.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any decision on
this petition only applies to the subject vehicles that MNA no longer
controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed.
However, any decision on this petition does not relieve vehicle
distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant vehicles under their control after MNA
notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Defense and Space S.A. (Formerly
Known as Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A.) Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Airbus Defense and Space S.A. Model CN-235, CN-235-100, CN-235-200, and
CN-235-300 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report of cracks on the
lugs of the inboard and outboard control rod fittings of the right hand
(RH) and left hand (LH) side ailerons. This AD requires a one-time non-
destructive test (NDT) inspection of the inboard and outboard control
rod fittings of the RH and LH side ailerons for cracks and corrosion,
and repair if necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct
cracks and corrosion on the lugs of the inboard and outboard control
rod fittings of the RH and LH side ailerons, which could lead to
reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATE: This AD becomes effective May 3, 2016.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of May 3, 2016.

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 Airbus Defense and
Space S.A. Model CN-235, CN-235-100, CN-235-200, and CN-235-300
airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal

Register on September 28, 2015 (80 FR 58224). The NPRM was prompted by
a report of cracks on the lugs of the inboard and outboard control rod
fittings of the RH and LH side ailerons. The NPRM proposed to require a
one-time NDT inspection of the inboard and outboard control rod
fittings of the RH and LH side ailerons for cracks and corrosion, and
repair if necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct
cracks and corrosion on the lugs of the inboard and outboard control
rod fittings of the RH and LH side ailerons, which could lead to
reduced controllability of the airplane.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2015-0040, dated March 6, 2015 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for all Airbus Defense and Space S.A. Model CN-235,
CN-235-100, CN-235-200, and CN-235-300 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    A CN-235 operator recently reported finding, during scheduled
maintenance tasks, cracks on the lugs of the control rod fittings
(inboard and outboard) of the ailerons [Right Hand (RH) and Left
Hand (LH) side] of two aeroplanes. At the time of the finding, the
two affected aeroplanes had accumulated between 16 000 and 17 000
flight hours (FH), around 6 000 flight cycles and had been in
service for 20 years. Following the investigation results, it was
determined that these cracks were due to stress corrosion.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to
aileron fittings failure, possibly resulting in reduced control of
the aeroplane.
    To address this unsafe condition and verify the integrity of the
fittings, EADS-CASA (Airbus Military) issued Alert Operators
Transmission (AOT) CN235-57-0001 to provide instructions for a one-
time Non-Destructive (NDT) inspection of the affected fittings for
cracks and corrosion.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires a one-
time NDT inspection of the affected aileron fittings and, if
discrepancies are detected, accomplishment of applicable corrective
action(s) [repair of any cracked or corroded parts].

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
3636.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (80 FR 58224, September
28, 2015) or on the determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this AD as proposed except for
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (80 FR 58224, September 28, 2015) for correcting the unsafe
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (80 FR 58224, September 28, 2015).

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus Defense and Space S.A. has issued Airbus Military Alert
Operators Transmission (AOT) AOT-CN235-57-0001, Revision 1, dated March
14, 2014. The service information describes procedures for a one-time
NDT inspection of the inboard and outboard control rod fittings of the
RH and LH side ailerons for cracks and corrosion, and contacting Airbus
Military for repair instructions. 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 24 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it will take about 30 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor
rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost
of this AD on U.S. operators to be $61,200, or $2,550 per product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

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