II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is announcing the release of a draft brochure entitled, Current
Best Practices for Preventing Asbestos Exposure Among Brake and Clutch
Repair Workers. This brochure, when finalized, will provide information
for automotive professionals, including State and local government
employees who perform brake and clutch work, and home mechanics on
preventing exposure to brake and clutch dust that may contain asbestos
fibers. The draft brochure summarizes work practices that may be used
to avoid asbestos exposure and identifies pertinent OSHA regulatory
requirements for professional automotive mechanics, which are found at
29 CFR 1910.1001, specifically paragraph (f)(3) and Appendix F. EPA's
Worker Protection Rule, found at 40 CFR part 763, subpart G, contains
identical requirements and applies to State and local government
employees who perform brake and clutch work in States without OSHA-
approved State plans. The draft brochure also provides related
information specifically for the consideration of home mechanics, who
are not subject to the OSHA (or EPA) work practice standards. When
finalized, this brochure will update and replace the existing document
entitled, Guidance for Preventing Asbestos Disease Among Auto Mechanics
(EPA-560-OPTS-86-002), commonly referred to as the ``Gold Book.'' The
public is encouraged to provide comments to EPA regarding this draft
brochure, which can be found at http://www.epa.gov/asbestos.

    Asbestos is the common name given to a number of naturally
occurring mineral fibers that have been used in manufactured goods due
to their high tensile strength, resistance to heat, and chemical
stability. Because of these properties, asbestos fibers have been used
in a wide range of manufactured goods, including roofing shingles,
ceiling and floor tiles, paper and cement products, textiles, and
coatings and friction products such as automobile clutch, brake, and
transmission parts. Exposure to asbestos is potentially harmful to
human health if microscopic asbestos fibers, released into the air when
asbestos is disturbed or in poor condition, are inhaled into the lungs.
Asbestos exposure has been associated with a number of serious health
problems and diseases, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and
mesothelioma.
    In 2004, EPA contacted nine auto manufacturers that cumulatively
accounted for over 96% of the light vehicles sold in the United States
and asked whether they used asbestos brakes in new vehicles or
replacement parts sold in the United States. All nine companies
responded that they no longer sold asbestos brakes in new vehicles or
as replacement parts in the United States. These responses did not
address aftermarket brakes (replacement parts not supplied by the
vehicle manufacturer). Aftermarket brakes that contain asbestos may, in
some cases, still be available for purchase in the United States.
Accordingly, while the use of asbestos in automotive brake and clutch
products appears to be declining domestically, this remains a source of

potential asbestos exposure. EPA did not seek information on clutches
because the Congressional inquiry to which the Agency was responding
when seeking this information was limited to brakes. It should be noted
that the aftermarket for clutches is significantly smaller than the
aftermarket for brakes.
    This draft brochure contains current information and, when
finalized, will supersede the currently available Guidance for
Preventing Asbestos Disease Among Auto Mechanics (EPA-560-OPTS-86-002).
The purpose of the brochure, once finalized, will be to provide the
public and workers involved in brake and clutch repair work with a
simple, easy-to-understand summary of the OSHA work practice standards,
which are mandatory for certain professional automotive mechanics. Also
discussed in this brochure is EPA's Worker Protection Rule, which
contains identical requirements, and is mandatory for State and local
government employees who perform brake and clutch work in States
without OSHA-approved State plans. EPA believes that home mechanics
also may benefit from information discussed in the brochure regarding
these work practice standards and additional advice on steps they can
consider taking to prevent possible asbestos exposure when working with
asbestos-containing friction products. Neither the draft nor final
brochure is intended to provide comprehensive technical information
regarding work practices, or a comprehensive assessment of the possible
health effects from exposure to asbestos in brakes and clutches.
Additionally, neither the draft nor final brochure is a substitute for
any applicable legal requirements, or a regulation. Thus, they do not
impose legally binding requirements on any party, including EPA,
States, or the regulated community. Interested professional mechanics
engaged in commercial brake and clutch repair are encouraged to contact
OSHA regarding compliance with the mandatory work practice standards
highlighted in this draft brochure (http://www.osha.gov). Similarly,

interested State and local government employees who perform brake and
clutch work in States without OSHA-approved State plans are encouraged
to contact EPA regarding compliance with EPA's Worker Protection Rule.
Finally, home mechanics may contact EPA with any specific questions not
addressed in the brochure by visiting the EPA asbestos website at
http://www.epa.gov/asbestos.

    EPA is seeking public comment on all aspects of the new brochure's
design and content. This includes the tone of the brochure and the
extent to which the current wording and design tend to support its
effectiveness as an educational tool. One issue that EPA has considered
is the need to balance technical accuracy with clarity and freedom from
overly technical terminology, while still maintaining consistency with
the OSHA mandatory work practice standards and the identical
requirements contained in EPA's Worker Protection Rule. The extent to
which the current draft is clear and understandable is of primary
concern to the Agency. In designing the layout of the brochure, EPA has
been aware of the need to develop a dynamic and engaging document while
ensuring that the brochure can be easily and inexpensively reprinted.
This approach has led the Agency to incorporate a layout and
illustrations that anchor many of the brochure's key points while
providing visual interest. EPA requests comment on whether the draft
images may be altered in any way to increase their effectiveness.
    EPA welcomes all comments and suggestions for improving the draft
brochure and will, where appropriate, incorporate changes to the final
brochure. However, EPA does not plan to develop or publish a formal
document that summarizes and responds to the comments received. EPA
will announce the availability of the final brochure through a future
Federal Register notice and, once finalized, the brochure will be
available on the EPA asbestos website at http://www.epa.gov/asbestos.

Final Allocations of Cross-State Air Pollution Rule Allowances
From New Unit Set-Asides for 2021 Control Periods

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of data availability.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is providing notice
of the availability of data on emission allowance allocations to
certain units under the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR) trading
programs. EPA has completed final calculations for the allocations of
allowances from the CSAPR new unit set-asides (NUSAs) for the 2021
control periods and has posted spreadsheets containing the calculations
on EPA's website. EPA has also completed calculations for allocations
of the remaining 2021 NUSA allowances to existing units and has posted
spreadsheets containing those calculations on EPA's website as well.

DATES: April 18, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Questions concerning this action
should be addressed to Jason Kuhns at<PHONE_NUMBER> or
[email protected] or Andrew Reighart at<PHONE_NUMBER> or
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under each CSAPR trading program where EPA
is responsible for determining emission allowance allocations, a
portion of each state's emissions budget for the program for each
control period is reserved in a NUSA (and in an additional Indian
country NUSA in the case of states with Indian country within their
borders) for allocation to certain units that would not otherwise
receive allowance allocations. The procedures for identifying the
eligible units for each control period and for allocating allowances
from the NUSAs and Indian country NUSAs to these units are set forth in
the CSAPR trading program regulations at 40 CFR 97.411(b) and 97.412
(NOX Annual), 97.511(b) and 97.512 (NOX Ozone
Season Group 1), 97.611(b) and 97.612 (SO2 Group 1),
97.711(b) and 97.712 (SO2 Group 2), 97.811(b) and 97.812
(NOX Ozone Season Group 2), and 97.1011(b) and 97.1012
(NOX Ozone Season Group 3). Each NUSA allowance allocation
process involves allocations to eligible units, termed ``new'' units,
followed by the allocation to ``existing'' units of any allowances not
allocated to new units.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ For control periods before 2021, the NUSA allocation process
involved two rounds of allocations. The current one-round process
for all CSAPR trading programs was adopted in the Revised CSAPR
Update. Refer to 86 FR 23054, 23145-46 (April 30, 2021).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In a notice of data availability (NODA) published in the Federal
Register on February 25, 2021 (87 FR 10786), EPA provided notice of the
preliminary calculations of NUSA allowance allocations for the 2021
control periods and described the process for submitting any
objections. This NODA concerns the final NUSA allowance allocations.
    In response to the February 25, 2021 NODA, EPA received written
objections from Wisconsin Electric Power Company and the Wisconsin
Department of Natural Resources. Both objections state that when
calculating the allocation of CSAPR SO2 Group 1 allowances
for unit 2 at the Elm Road Generating Station (Plant ID 56068), EPA
should have used a value of 315 tons instead of 262 tons for the unit's
reported 2021 SO2 emissions. Based on a review of the
reported 2021 emissions data, EPA agrees with these objections and
accordingly has corrected the final NUSA allowance allocations for the
CSAPR SO2 Group 1 Trading Program for Wisconsin to reflect a
53-ton increase in the amount of NUSA allowances allocated to Elm Road
unit 2 and a corresponding 53-ton decrease in the collective amounts of
NUSA allowances allocated to the state's ``existing'' units. EPA
received no other written objections, and all other final allocations
are unchanged from the preliminary allocations.
    The detailed unit-by-unit data and final allowance allocation
calculations are set forth in Excel spreadsheets titled

allocations are subject to potential correction if a unit to which
allowances have been allocated for a given control period is not
actually an affected unit as of the start of that control period.

Applicants' Representations

    1. The Trust is an open-end management investment company
registered under the Act and organized as a Delaware statutory trust.
The Trust is authorized to offer an unlimited number of series. The
Adviser is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (``Advisers Act'') and will advise each Fund. The
Adviser may enter into subadvisory agreements with additional
investment advisers to act as subadviser to the Trust and any Fund. Any
subadviser to the Trust or a Fund will be registered under the Advisers
Act. The Distributor is registered as a broker-dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and will act as the distributor and
principal underwriter for each Fund's shares.
    2. The Prior Order permits the Initial Funds to seek daily
investment results, before fees and expenses, that (a) correspond to
the return of certain domestic equity securities indices; (b) provide
125%, 150% or 200% of the return of certain domestic equity securities
indices; or (c) move in the opposite direction of the performance of
certain domestic equity securities indices in multiples of 100%, 125%,
150% or 200% (``Inverse Funds''). Applicants seek to amend the Prior
Order to permit the Additional Funds to be offered using New Underlying
Indices. Applicants seek to amend the Prior Order to permit the Trust
to offer Funds that seek daily investment results, before fees and
expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the return of, the inverse
return of, and twice the inverse (double the opposite) return of the:
NASDAQ Biotechnology Index, Dow Jones Select Biotechnology Index and
Dow Jones Select Telecommunications Index. Applicants also intend to
offer Funds that seek daily investment results, before fees and
expenses, that correspond to the inverse return of and twice the
inverse (double the opposite) return of the: MSCI Emerging Markets
Index, MSCI Japan Index, MSCI EAFE Index, FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index,
Lehman Brothers 7-10 Year U.S. Treasury Index, Lehman Brothers 20+ Year
U.S. Treasury Index, iBoxx $ Liquid Investment Grade Index, and iBoxx $
Liquid High Yield Index (collectively, the ``New Inverse Funds'').
Consistent with the operations of the Inverse Funds that were the
subject of the Prior Order, the New Inverse Funds will not hold any
equity securities. All Additional Funds will operate in a manner
identical to the Initial Funds. No creator, provider or compiler of a
New Underlying Index is or will be an affiliated person, as defined in
section 2(a)(3) of the Act, or an affiliated person of an affiliated
person, of the Trust, a promoter, the Adviser, any subadviser to any
Fund, or the Distributor.
    3. Applicants state that the Additional Funds will be offered
pursuant to the same terms and provisions contained in the application
for the Prior Order, except as expressly modified by this application.
Applicants agree that the amended order will be subject to the same
conditions as those imposed by the Prior Order. Applicants believe that
the requested relief continues to meet the necessary exemptive
standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

General Information

Extension of Public Comment Period

    The notice of proposed rulemaking was signed by the Administrator
on May 1, 2008 and published in the Federal Register on May 20, 2008
(73 FR 29184). The schedule for completion of this review is governed
by a judicial order in Missouri Coalition for the Environment v. EPA
(No. 4:04CV00660 ERW, Sept.14, 2005). In light of the numerous complex
issues discussed in the notice of proposed rulemaking, EPA and the
Missouri Coalition for the Environment jointly sought an amendment of
the judicial order to extend the comment period on the notice of
proposed rulemaking to August 4, 2008 and to extend the deadline for
signature of the notice of final rulemaking to October 15, 2008. On
July 1, 2008, the court granted the joint motion, and therefore EPA is
extending the comment period until August 4, 2008.

What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
www.regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in 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 submitting comments,
remember to:
     Identify the rulemaking by docket number and other
identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and
page number).
     Follow directions--the agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
     Explain why you agree or disagree, suggest alternatives,
and substitute language for your requested changes.
     Describe any assumptions and provide any technical
information and/or data that you used.
     If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how
you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
     Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and
suggest alternatives.
     Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the
use of profanity or personal threats.
     Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

[Docket No. FAA-2011-1413; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-062-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
certain Cessna Aircraft Company Model 560XL airplanes. This proposed AD
was prompted by reports of wheel inserts becoming loose and damaging
brake assemblies on Model 560XL airplanes. This proposed AD would
require an inspection of the torque lug and surrounding components
(wheel base, side rim, lock ring) for damage (such as corrosion,
cracks, dents, bent areas, damaged or missing paint or primer, or

wear on the metal), and of the bearing cup for corrosion, turned cup,
or clearance that exceeds limits, and repair as applicable; measuring
the torque lugs for width and replacing screws and inserts with new,
improved screws and inserts; and re-identifying the wheel assemblies.
We are proposing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by March 5, 2012.

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2011-1413;
Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-062-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this proposed AD. We
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend
this proposed AD because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this proposed AD.

Discussion

    We have received reports of wheel inserts becoming loose and
damaging brake assemblies on Model 560XL airplanes. In two cases, a
loose wheel insert damaged the brake housing at a location that affects
both the antiskid brake hydraulic system and the emergency brake
system. In those two cases, both systems failed to stop the airplane on
the runway. This condition, if not corrected, could result in brake
failure, and consequently an airplane not being able to stop on the
runway.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Cessna Service Bulletin SB560XL-32-41, Revision 1,
dated May 5, 2011, including Service Bulletin Supplemental Data
SB560XL-32-41, dated February 25, 2011. That service bulletin describes
procedures for doing a general visual inspection of the torque lug and
surrounding components (wheel base, side rim, lock ring) for damage
(such as corrosion, cracks, dents, bent areas, damaged or missing paint
or primer, or wear on the metal), and of the bearing cup for corrosion,
turned cup, or clearance that exceeds limits, and repair if necessary;
measuring the torque lugs for width and replacing screws and inserts
with new, improved screws and inserts; and re-identifying the wheel
assemblies.

FAA's Determination

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

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information described previously, except as discussed
under ``Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service
Information.''

Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service Information

    Operators should note that, although the Accomplishment
Instructions of Cessna Service Bulletin SB560XL-32-41, Revision 1,
dated May 5, 2011, describe procedures for submitting a comment sheet
related to service bulletin quality and a sheet recording compliance
with the service bulletin, this proposed AD would not require those
actions.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 473 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost on U.S.

 the torque lugs, replacement of   hours x $85 per
 screws and inserts, and re-       hour = $935.
 marking.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary repairs or
replacements as applicable that would be required based on the results
of the proposed inspection. We have no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these repairs or replacements:

                                               On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
               Action                        Labor cost                Parts cost            Cost per product
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repair or replacement as applicable.  Between 1 and 9 work-     Between $0 and $24,000   Between $85 and $24,765
                                       hour[s] x $85 per hour    per wheel assembly.      per wheel assembly
                                       = Between $85 and $765
                                       per wheel assembly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    According to the manufacturer, all of the costs of this proposed AD
may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on
affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected
individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost
estimate.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

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

    Additionally, any person may obtain a copy of this notice by
submitting a request to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA),
Office of Air Traffic Airspace Management, ATA-400, 800 Independence
Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591, or by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>.
Communications must identify both docket numbers for this notice.
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 adding additional Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface for SIAPs operations at
Huntingburg Airport, Huntingburg, IN. Adjustment to the geographic
coordinates would be made in accordance with the FAAs National
Aeronautical Charting Office. Controlled airspace is needed for the
safety and management of IFR operations at the airport.
    Class E airspace areas are published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA Order
7400.9T, dated August 27, 2009, and effective September 15, 2009, 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 add additional controlled airspace at Huntingburg Airport,
Huntingburg, IN.

Airworthiness Directives; Various de Havilland Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Harry E. Williams de Havilland Model DH 82A airplanes, all Cliff
Robertson de Havilland Model DH 82A airplanes, and all de Havilland
Model DH 83 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of
structural failure of the attachment of the wing to the fuselage that
resulted from failed lateral fuselage tie rods. This proposed AD would
require inspecting the aircraft maintenance records to determine the

date of installation or the date of last replacement of the lateral
fuselage tie rods. This proposed AD would also require repetitively
replacing all lateral fuselage tie rods and attaching nuts at a
specified life limit interval. We are proposing this AD to correct the
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by October 30,
2014.

Discussion

    During routine maintenance on a de Havilland Model DH 82 airplane,
it was found that the lateral fuselage tie rod at the aft position had
sheared at its location with the spar attachment fitting. Investigation
revealed that the failure was a result of fatigue cracking in the
thread root. In addition, the forward tie rod (which had not fractured)
was distorted and found to have been manufactured from material of
incorrect specification with a lower tensile strength.
    During our review of the above-referenced cracking and the related
mandatory service information, we determined that the life limit on the
lateral fuselage tie rods is not currently addressed for airplanes on
the U.S. registry. Mandatory service information is required for
airplanes on the registry in certain other countries, but in the United
States an AD must be issued to require the actions of a service
bulletin for all airplanes.
    De Havilland Model DH 82A airplanes (commonly referred to as Tiger
Moths) are type certificated under two type certificates. TCDS A5PC,
currently held by Harry E. Williams, is for airplanes built in
Australia, and TCDS A8EU, currently held by Cliff Robertson, c/o
Gadbois Business Management, is for airplanes built in the United
Kingdom. This type certification approval was not by validation, but by
an acceptance process; as such, the U.S. type certificate holders are
not the manufacturers of the airplanes and the original manufacturers
(de Havilland and its licensees) are not type certificate holders.
    De Havilland Support Ltd (DHSL) holds the type certificate
responsibility for de Havilland Model DH 82A airplanes (the type design
for TCDS A8EU) in the United Kingdom.
    DHSL is custodian of the airframe design data, manufacturing
drawings, and repair schemes still in existence for de Havilland Model
DH 82A Tiger Moth series airplanes only. In 2012, DHSL entered into a
CAA Type Responsibility Agreement (TRA) so that the airplane remains
eligible, if required, for an ICAO-compliant Certificate of
Airworthiness to facilitate training and pleasure flying.
    Similarly, Air Stratus Ltd holds the type certificate
responsibility for de Havilland Model DH 83 airplanes (the type design
for TCDS 2-439) in the United Kingdom.
    This condition, if not corrected, could result in structural
failure of the attachment of the wing to the fuselage. We are issuing
this proposed AD to correct the unsafe condition on these products.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed British Aerospace Military Aircraft and Aerostructures
BAe Aircraft Bulletin for de Havilland Moth Aircraft, Document Type and
Ref No Technical News Sheet CT (Moth) No 29, Issue 3, dated March 1,
1999, which was approved by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for the
United Kingdom to ensure the continued

airworthiness of these airplanes in the United Kingdom. The service
information introduces a life limit for the lateral fuselage tie rods
and describes procedures for repetitively replacing the lateral
fuselage tie rods and attaching nuts.

FAA's Determination

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

Proposed AD Requirements

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information described previously.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 69 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

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