SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54822; File No. SR-NSCC-2006-11]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; National Securities Clearing
Corporation; Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change To Amend its
Rules and Procedures Wth Respect to Clearing Fund Collateral

November 28, 2006.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on October 3, 2006, the National Securities Clearing Corporation
(``NSCC'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(``Commission'') the proposed rule change described in Items I, II, and
III below, which items have been prepared primarily by NSCC. The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested parties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    The proposed rule change seeks to modify NSCC's Rules with respect
to Clearing Fund collateral in order to improve liquidity and to
minimize risk for NSCC and its members. NSCC has also made certain
technical corrections to the text of Rule 4 to conform the rule to
actual practice.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ For example, the reference in Rule 4, Section 1 to the
``market value'' of Qualifying Bonds has been corrected to
accurately reference the ``collateral value'' of Eligible Clearing
Fund Securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    In its filing with the Commission, NSCC 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 these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. NSCC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections (A),
(B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of these
statements.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Commission has modified the text of the summaries
prepared by NSCC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    Under NSCC's Rules,\5\ members are required to make deposits to the
Clearing Fund. The amount of each member's required deposit (``Required
Deposit'') is fixed by NSCC in accordance with one or more formulas. A
member's Required Deposit may be satisfied with a cash deposit, and a
portion of a member's Required Deposit may be evidenced by an open
account indebtedness secured by Qualifying Bonds and/or one or more
irrevocable letters of credit issued under certain guidelines
established within NSCC's Rules.\6\ NSCC haircuts the value that
Qualifying Bonds receive when used to

meet a member's Clearing Fund requirement and will not allow a letter
of credit to be used if by doing so more than twenty percent of NSCC's
total Clearing Fund would consist of letters of credit issued by that
approved letter of credit issuing bank. Each member is entitled to any
Clearing Fund interest earned or paid on Qualifying Bonds and cash
deposits.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ Rule 4 (Clearing Fund), Procedure XV (Clearing Fund Formula
and Other Matters), and Annex 1 (Version 2 of Procedure XV--Limited
Applicability).
    \6\ Mutual Fund/Insurance Service Members are not permitted to
use Qualifying Bonds or irrevocable letters of credit to satisfy
their Required Deposits.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    NSCC proposes to modify its Rules to: (1) Expand the types of
instruments which NSCC may accept as Qualifying Bonds (``Eligible
Clearing Fund Securities'') securing a member's open account Clearing
Fund indebtedness and establish concentration requirements with regard
to their use; (2) create a correlating range of haircuts to be applied
to these expanded types of Eligible Clearing Fund Securities; and (3)
eliminate letters of credit as a generally acceptable form of
collateral securing the member's open account Clearing Fund
indebtedness.
1. Revised Clearing Fund Components
    (a) Cash. The current Clearing Fund minimum cash deposit
requirement will remain unchanged: each member must contribute a
minimum of $10,000 with the first forty percent but no less than
$10,000 of a member's Required Deposit being in cash.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See supra note 6.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) Securities. NSCC proposes to replace the term Qualifying Bonds
\8\ with a new set of definitions for Eligible Clearing Fund
Securities. These securities will be unmatured bonds which are either
an Eligible Clearing Fund Agency Security, Eligible Clearing Fund
Mortgage-Backed Security, or Eligible Clearing Fund Treasury Security.
An Eligible Clearing Fund Agency Security will be defined as a direct
obligation of those U.S. agencies or government sponsored enterprises
as NSCC may designate from time to time that satisfies such criteria
set forth in notices issued by NSCC from time to time. An Eligible
Clearing Fund Mortgage-Backed Security will be defined as a mortgage-
backed pass through obligation issued by those U.S. agencies or
government sponsored enterprises as NSCC may designate from time to
time that satisfies such criteria set forth in notices issued by NSCC
from time to time. An Eligible Clearing Fund Treasury Security will be
defined as a direct obligation of the U.S. Government that satisfies
the criteria set forth in notices issued by NSCC from time to time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ ``Qualifying Bonds'' is defined in Rule 4 as unmatured bonds
that are either direct obligations of, or obligations guaranteed as
to principal and interest by, the United States or its agencies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Initial eligibility criteria for each type of Eligible Clearing
Fund Security will be announced to members in an Important Notice prior
to the effective date of these proposed rule changes. Any future
changes to the eligibility criteria will also be announced to members
in Important Notices in advance of such changes becoming effective.
    (c) Security Concentration Provisions. NSCC also proposes to
establish security concentration provisions for Clearing Fund deposits.
As is currently required, each member must contribute a minimum of
$10,000 with the first forty percent but no less than $10,000 of a
member's Required Deposit being in cash.\9\ The remainder of a member's
deposit may be secured by the pledge of Eligible Clearing Fund
Securities in any combination of Eligible Clearing Fund Treasury
Securities, Eligible Clearing Fund Agency Securities, and/or Eligible
Clearing Fund Mortgage-Backed Securities, subject to the following two
limitations. First, any deposits of Eligible Clearing Fund Agency
Securities or Eligible Clearing Fund Mortgage-Backed Securities in
excess of twenty-five percent of the member's Required Deposit will be
subject to an additional haircut equal to twice the percentage noted in
the haircut schedule. Second, no more than twenty percent of a member's
Required Deposit secured by pledged Eligible Clearing Fund Agency
Securities may be of a single issuer.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See supra note 6.
    \10\ No member may post as collateral Eligible Clearing Fund
Agency Securities for which it is the issuer. However, a member may
pledge Eligible Clearing Fund Mortgage-Backed Securities for which
it is the issuer subject to a premium haircut. That haircut shall be
fourteen percent as an initial matter, and if the member also
exceeds the twenty-five percent concentration limit, the haircut
shall be twenty-one percent.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (d) Letters of Credit and Other Adequate Assurances. Because
letters of credit will no longer be accepted by NSCC as a form of
Clearing Fund collateral,\11\ the current requirements within NSCC's
Rules that pertain to Letter of Credit Issuers will be modified to
reflect this. For those members who currently have letters of credit
posted as collateral (other than members, if any, that have been
required to post letters of credit for legal risk), effective April 1,
2007, (which date corresponds with the regular expiration date of
letters of credit) members will be required to replace that portion of
their Clearing Fund deposit with either cash or Eligible Clearing Fund
Securities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ NSCC has found that in practice letters of credit are not
as liquid as cash and securities, and therefore potentially pose
more risk to NSCC and its members when accepted by NSCC as Clearing
Fund collateral. NSCC will, however, reserve the right to require
letters of credit from members in those instances where a particular
member has been found, by NSCC in its discretion, to present legal
risk.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (e) Implementation Timeframes. The foregoing rule changes will
become effective thirty days after an Important Notice is issued to
members informing them that NSCC's systems are ready to accommodate
such changes with the corresponding changes to NSCC's rules being made
at that time.
    NSCC believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
requirements of Section 17A of the Act \12\ and the rules and
regulations thereunder because it will enable NSCC to diversify
Clearing Fund collateral in order to improve liquidity and to minimize
risk for NSCC and its members. As such, NSCC believes it will better
enable NSCC to safeguard securities and funds in its possession or
control or for which it is responsible.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78q--1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(B) Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

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

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

    Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not yet
been solicited or received. NSCC will notify the Commission of any
written comments received by NSCC.

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

    Within thirty-five days of the date of publication of this notice
in the Federal Register or within such longer period: (i) As the
Commission may designate up to ninety days of such date if it finds
such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so
finding or (ii) as to which the self-regulatory organization consents,
the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve such proposed rule change; or
    (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation 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 Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 2000 and FALCON 2000EX
airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a determination that new
center of gravity (CG) limits applicable during takeoff with a Slat/
Flap SF2 setting are necessary. This proposed AD would require revising
the airplane flight manual (AFM) to include procedures to advise the
flightcrew of the new CG limits. We are proposing this AD to prevent an
erratic takeoff path and consequent reduced controllability of the
airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by November 18,
2013.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2012-0081, dated May 14, 2012 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified
products. The MCAI states:

    During a test flight on a Falcon 2000EX equipped with winglets
(commercial designation Falcon 2000LX), performed for the
certification of a maximum takeoff weight increase, the aeroplane
took off and experienced unsatisfactory control characteristics
under specific combined conditions of loading, slat-flap setting and
horizontal tailplane trim setting. The weight and the Center of
Gravity (CG) of the aeroplane during that test flight were within
the already certified limits.
    This condition, if not corrected, could result in an erratic
take-off path and reduced control of the aeroplane, which could
ultimately jeopardize the aeroplane safe flight.
    To address this condition, Dassault Aviation developed Change
Proposal (CP) 036 to the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM), which
introduced new CG limits which are applicable during take-off with
Slat/Flap SF2 setting.
    Since issuance of EASA PAD 11-077, Dassault Aviation issued a
normal AFM revision currently at revision 15, which incorporates
Dassault Aviation CP 036.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires
amendment of the applicable AFM to ensure that the flight crew
applies the appropriate operational procedure.

    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Dassault Aviation has issued Revision 15 to the Falcon 2000EX EASy,
2000DX, and 2000LX Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) DGT88898, dated October
30, 2011 (for Model 2000EX airplanes).
    Aviation Partners Inc. has issued AFM Supplement APF2-0601, Code
002, Revision 3, dated June 1, 2012 (for Model FALCON 2000 airplanes),
and AFM Supplement APF2-0601, Code 001, Revision 4, dated June 1, 2012
(for Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes).

    The actions described in this service information are intended to
correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.

Differences Between This Proposed AD and the MCAI or Service
Information

    The applicability in the MCAI specifies Dassault Aviation Model
Falcon 2000EX airplanes on which Dassault Aviation modification M2848
or Dassault Aviation Technical Instructions TI-F2000EX-M2846-ME or TI-
F2000EX-M3118/M2846-ME has been embodied for the installation of
winglets; including serial number 602. However, the applicability in
this proposed AD would also include Model FALCON 2000 and Model FALCON
2000EX airplanes modified by Aviation Partners Incorporated
Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) Number ST01987SE (installation of
winglets). We have determined that this group of airplanes is subject
to the same unsafe condition as the airplanes identified in the MCAI.
In addition, the applicability in this AD would exclude Model FALCON
F2000EX airplanes on which Dassault Modification M3254 or Dassault
Service Bulletin F2000EX-300, Revision 1, dated May 17, 2013, has been
embodied. We have determined that this group of airplanes is not
subject to the same unsafe condition as the airplanes identified in the
MCAI.
    Although the MCAI does not include revising the AFM by
incorporating the CG limits in Aviation Partners AFM Supplement APF2-
0601, Code 002, Revision 3, dated June 1, 2012 (for Model FALCON 2000
airplanes), and AFM Supplement APF2-0601, Code 001, Revision 4, dated
June 1, 2012 (for Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes); that requirement is
included in this proposed AD.
    These differences have been coordinated with EASA.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 69 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 1 work-hour per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $5,865, or $85 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 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

Maryland; Control of Emissions From Various Processes and Fuel-Burning
Equipment From Kraft Pulp Mills

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is granting
conditional approval of a state implementation plan (SIP) revision
submitted by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE). The
revisions adds and amends regulations in the SIP which control
emissions from various processes and fuel-burning equipment at Kraft
pulp mills. The SIP revision includes the following: a new definition
for ``NOX Ozone Season Allowance;'' a new regulation with
nitrogen oxides (NOX) limits for fuel-burning equipment
located at Kraft pulp mills; a removal and relocation of existing
NOX reasonably available control technology (RACT)
requirements for Kraft pulp mills into another Maryland regulation; and
a revised regulation which clarifies the volatile organic compound
(VOC) control system and emission requirements for several process
installations at Kraft pulp mills. EPA is granting conditional approval
because the new Maryland definition references the defunct Clean Air
Interstate Rule (CAIR) and because MDE provided a commitment to remove
all references to CAIR within the definition of ``NOX Ozone
Season Allowance'' and submit a revised definition as a new SIP
revision, no later than a year from EPA finalizing this conditional
approval. Upon timely meeting of this commitment, EPA will propose to
convert the conditional approval of the SIP revision to a final, full
approval. This action is being taken under the Clean Air Act (CAA).

DATES: This final rule is effective on September 29, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On May 20, 2016 (81 FR 31887), EPA published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPR) for the State of Maryland. In the NPR, EPA proposed to
grant conditional approval of revisions to regulations in Maryland's
SIP which control emissions from various processes and fuel-burning
equipment at Kraft pulp mills. The formal SIP revision (14-04) was
submitted by MDE on October 15, 2014.

II. Summary of SIP Revision

    MDE's SIP revision adds and amends regulations in order to control
emissions from various processes and fuel-burning equipment at Kraft
pulp mills. The SIP revision adds a definition for ``NOX
Ozone Season Allowance'' and establishes applicability, compliance
requirements, monitoring and reporting requirements, allowances, and
NOX emission standards and limits for Kraft pulp mills. The
SIP revision also removes subsection (C)(h) of the Code of Maryland
Regulations (COMAR) <IP_ADDRESS> from the Maryland SIP because the
NOX requirements for pulp mills have been relocated to COMAR
<IP_ADDRESS>. The SIP revision clarifies the VOC control system and
requirements for several process installations at Kraft pulp mills.
    Other specific requirements of the SIP revision and the rationale
for EPA's action to grant conditional approval are explained in the NPR
and will not be restated here. No public comments were received on the
NPR.

III. Final Action

    EPA is granting conditional approval of Maryland's October 15, 2014
SIP revision concerning the regulations and requirements to control
NOX and VOC emissions from various processes and fuel-
burning equipment at Kraft pulp mills as it strengthens the SIP with
provisions related to controlling emissions of NOX and VOC.
The conditional approval is contingent upon MDE's September 29, 2015
commitment to remove references to the now defunct CAIR CAA allowance
trading program within the definition of ``NOX Ozone Season
Allowance,'' at COMAR <IP_ADDRESS> and replace with another allowance
mechanism. Once EPA has determined that MDE has satisfied this
condition and EPA approves the revised definition, EPA shall remove the
conditional nature of its approval and this SIP revision will at that
time receive full approval status.

IV. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, with our conditional approval, EPA is finalizing
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, EPA is finalizing, with our
conditional approval, the incorporation by reference of revisions to
COMAR <IP_ADDRESS>, COMAR <IP_ADDRESS>, COMAR <IP_ADDRESS>, and COMAR
<IP_ADDRESS>. Therefore, these materials have been conditionally
approved by EPA for inclusion in the SIP, have been incorporated by
reference by EPA into that plan, are fully federally enforceable under
sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of the effective date of the final
rulemaking of EPA's approval, and will be incorporated by reference by
the Director of the Federal Register in the next update to the SIP
compilation.\1\ EPA has made, and will continue to make, these
materials generally available through http://www.regulations.gov and/or
at the EPA Region III Office (please contact the person identified in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more
information).

    \1\ 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. General Requirements

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the CAA and applicable
federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21,
2011);
     does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; and
     does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.

B. Submission to Congress and the Comptroller General

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).

C. Petitions for Judicial Review

    Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by October 31, 2016. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or
action.
    This action pertaining to the regulations and requirements for the
control of emissions from various processes and fuel-burning equipment
from Kraft pulp mills, may not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

[Docket No. FAA-2019-0406; Product Identifier 2019-NM-059-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD)
for all The Boeing Company Model MD-90-30 airplanes. This proposed AD
was prompted by reports indicating that certain center wing stringers
and skins have been identified to potentially be susceptible to
cracking. This proposed AD would require repetitive eddy current, low
frequency (ETLF) inspections of the left and right side fastener holes
for any crack; repetitive eddy current, high frequency (ETHF)
inspections of the lower skin for any crack; and repair if any crack is
found. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 5,
2019.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites 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-2019-0406;
Product Identifier 2019-NM-059-AD'' at the beginning of your comments.
The FAA specifically invites comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this NPRM. The FAA will
consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this
NPRM because of those comments.
    The FAA will post all comments, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide.
The FAA will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal
contact the agency receives about this NPRM.

Discussion

    The FAA has received reports indicating that the fastener holes
common to stringers (S) S-11 through S-22, and around the external
bracket angle at S-18 and S-19 have been identified to potentially be
susceptible to cracking on the Model MD-90 airplanes. This
determination is based on Model MD-80 airplane service experience. The
Model MD-80 and Model MD-90 wings share the same basic design and have
similar stresses.
    Operators of Model MD-80 airplanes have reported finding cracks in
the center wing lower stringers, lower stringer end fittings, and lower
forward and aft skins. The cracks in stringers occur at the inboard end
where they are joined to the airplane centerline by end fittings.
Cracks in the end fittings occur at the outboard end where they attach
to stringers. The wing skin cracks occur underneath a cracked stringer.
The cause of the cracks has been determined to be from fatigue. The
Boeing Company has not received any reports of cracks on Model MD-90
airplanes; however, the similarities with the Model MD-80 wings require
agency action. If not addressed, cracking of the center wing stringers
and skins could result in the inability of the structure to sustain
limit loads, and adversely affect the structural integrity of the
airplane.

Other Relevant Rulemaking

    The FAA issued AD 2016-07-28 (81 FR 21253, April 11, 2016) for all
The Boeing Company Model DC-9-81 (MD- 81), DC-9-82 (MD-82), DC-9-83
(MD-83), and DC-9-87 (MD-87) airplanes, and Model MD-88 airplanes. That
AD requires repetitive ETHF inspections for any cracking in the left
and right side center wing lower skin, and corrective actions if
necessary. That AD addresses cracks at S-15, S-16, or S-17, associated
end fittings, and skins in the center wing fuel tank where the
stringers meet the end fittings near Xcw=13 and Xcw=15. Such cracking
could cause structural failure of the wings. Since that AD was issued,
cracking has been found at fastener holes common to stringers S-11
through S-22, and around the external bracket angle at S-18 and S-19.
These areas were not addressed in AD 2016-07-28 or Boeing Alert Service
Bulletin MD80-57A244, dated March 3, 2016, which is the service
information operators are required to follow to complete the actions
required by AD 2016-07-28. Boeing is developing new service information
for Model MD-80 airplanes to address these additional areas where
cracking was found. The FAA will consider further rulemaking to address
the identified unsafe condition for Model MD-80 airplanes once this
service information is approved.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-57A031, dated
March 19, 2019. This service information describes procedures for
repetitive ETLF inspections of the left and right side fastener holes
for any crack, repetitive ETHF inspections of the lower skin for any
crack, and repair if any crack is found.
    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.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is 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. For information on the
procedures and compliance times, see this service information at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2019-
0406.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this proposed AD affects 43 airplanes of
U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with
this proposed AD:

    The FAA has received no definitive data that would enable the
agency to provide cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified
in this proposed AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    The FAA is 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.
    This proposed AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated
by the Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as
authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order,
issuance of ADs is normally a function of the Compliance and
Airworthiness Division, but during this transition period, the
Executive Director has delegated the authority to issue ADs applicable
to transport category airplanes and associated appliances to the
Director of the System Oversight Division.

Regulatory Findings

    The FAA 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) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

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

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 adding the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA-2019-0406; Product Identifier
2019-NM-059-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    The FAA must receive comments by August 5, 2019.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all The Boeing Company Model MD-90-30
airplanes, certificated in any category.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 57, Wings.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports indicating that certain center
wing stringers and skins have been identified to potentially be
susceptible to cracking. The FAA is issuing this AD to address
cracking of the center wing stringers and skins, which could result
in the inability of the structure to sustain limit loads, and
adversely affect the structural integrity of the airplane.

(f) Compliance

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

(g) Required Actions

    Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: At the
applicable times specified in paragraph 1.E., ``Compliance,'' of
Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-57A031, dated March 19, 2019, do
all applicable actions identified as ``RC'' (required for
compliance) in, and in accordance with, the Accomplishment
Instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-57A031, dated
March 19, 2019.

(h) Exceptions to Service Information Specifications

    (1) For purposes of determining compliance with the requirements
of this AD: Where Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-57A031, dated
March 19, 2019, uses the phrase ``the original issue date of this
service bulletin,'' this AD requires using ``the effective date of
this AD.''
    (2) Where Boeing Alert Service Bulletin MD90-57A031, dated March
19, 2019, specifies contacting Boeing for repair instructions and
doing the repair: This AD requires doing the repair using a method
approved in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph
(i) of this AD.

(i) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (1) The Manager, Los Angeles ACO Branch, 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 certification office, send it to the attention of
the person identified in paragraph (j)(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 Company Organization Designation
Authorization (ODA) that has been authorized by the Manager, Los
Angeles ACO Branch, FAA, 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) Except as specified by paragraph (h) of this AD: For service
information that contains steps that are labeled as Required for
Compliance (RC), the provisions of paragraphs (i)(4)(i) and
(i)(4)(ii) of this AD 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.
