(Including CL-605 Marketing Variant)) Airplanes, and Model CL-600-2B19
(Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) Airplanes

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

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive
(AD) that applies to all Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet
Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12
(CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes.
The existing AD currently requires revising the airplane flight manuals
(AFMs) to include new cold weather operations limitations and
procedures. This AD requires revising the AFMs to include a requirement
for flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and
winter operations. This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll
during take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of
control on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice,
snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing
surfaces.

DATES: This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of October 31,
2008.
    On April 21, 2008 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008), the Director of
the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD.
    We must receive any comments on this AD by November 17, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    On April 2, 2008, the FAA issued AD 2008-08-06, amendment 39-15458
(73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008). That AD applies to all Bombardier Model
CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL-600-
1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-
601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes. That AD requires revising the airplane
flight manuals (AFMs) to include new cold weather operations
limitations and

procedures. That AD resulted from reports of uncommanded roll during
take-off. The actions specified in that AD are intended to prevent
possible loss of control on take-off resulting from even small amounts
of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward
upper wing surfaces.

Actions Since AD Was Issued

    The preamble to AD 2008-08-06 specified that we considered the
requirements ``interim action'' and that Transport Canada Civil
Aviation (TCCA) advised that it was developing further actions, such as
crew awareness and training with regard to winter operations to address
the unsafe condition addressed by that AD. That AD explains that we
might consider further rulemaking if those further actions are
developed, approved, and available. TCCA has now advised us that the
manufacturer has developed these actions, and we have determined that
further rulemaking is indeed necessary; this AD follows from that
determination.

Relevant Service Information

    Bombardier has issued the temporary revisions (TRs) listed in the
``Temporary Revisions'' table. The temporary revisions describe
limitations that include tactile inspections for ice during certain
weather conditions, limitations and procedures for use of wing and cowl
anti-ice during certain taxiing or take-off conditions, and take-off
limitations to reduce high-pitch attitudes during rotation. The
temporary revisions also describe a limitation, effective November 1,
2008, that requires flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off
procedures and winter operations. Accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information is intended to adequately address the unsafe
condition. TCCA mandated the service information and issued Canadian
airworthiness directives CF-2008-15R1 and CF-2008-16R1, both dated
August 20, 2008 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to ensure the
continued airworthiness of these airplanes in Canada.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This 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 issuing 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.
    Therefore, we are issuing this AD to supersede AD 2008-08-06. This
new AD retains certain requirements of the existing AD. This AD also
requires revising the AFMs to include a requirement for flightcrew
training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations.

Differences Between This AD and the Canadian Airworthiness Directives

    The Canadian airworthiness directives specify that operators should
advise flightcrews of the changes introduced by the TRs; and review the
``Pilot's Checklist'' to ensure that the instructions regarding
selection of the wing anti-ice system to ``ON,'' as specified in the
AFM Limitations section, are incorporated. We do not require these
actions because there is no method to determine compliance with these
actions.

Change to Existing AD

    This AD retains certain requirements of AD 2008-08-06; however,
certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding
paragraph identifiers have changed in this AD, as listed in the
following table:

                      Revised Paragraph Identifiers

Paragraph (f).............................  Not retained in this AD.
Paragraph (g).............................  Paragraph (f).
Paragraph (h).............................  Paragraph (g).
Paragraph (i).............................  Paragraph (j).
------------------------------------------------------------------------

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    We are rapidly approaching the ice/snow season and the pilot
training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations
must be accomplished before the season begins. Because of our
requirement to promote safe flight of civil aircraft and thus, the
critical need to prevent uncommanded roll during take-off and the short
compliance time involved with this action, this AD must be issued
immediately.
    Because an unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate
adoption of this AD, we find that notice and opportunity for prior
public comment hereon are impracticable and that good cause exists for
making this amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to
provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite
you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send
your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include
``Docket No. FAA-2008-1096; Directorate Identifier 2008-NM-158-AD'' at
the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the
overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this
AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date and may
amend this 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 AD.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a
substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the 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); 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES
section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.

2. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) amends Sec.  39.13 by
removing amendment 39-15458 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008) and adding
the following new AD:

2008-21-09 Bombardier, Inc. (Formerly Canadair): Docket No. FAA-
2008-1096; Directorate Identifier 2008-NM-158-AD; Amendment 39-
15693.

Effective Date

    (a) This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008.

Affected ADs

    (b) This AD supersedes AD 2008-08-06.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to all Bombardier Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-
600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, & CL-
604) airplanes, and Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 &
440) airplanes, certificated in any category.

    Note 1: Some Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-604) airplanes might be
referred to by a marketing designation as CL-605.

    Note 2: This AD requires revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new inspections. Compliance with
these inspections is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes
that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the
areas addressed by these inspections, the operator may not be able
to accomplish the inspections described in the revisions. In this
situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must
request approval for an alternative method of compliance according
to paragraph (j) of this AD. The request should include a
description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure
the continued operational safety of the airplane.

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll during
take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of control
on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice, snow,
or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing surfaces.

Compliance

    (e) You are responsible for having the actions required by this
AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the
actions have already been done.

Restatement of AD 2008-08-06

Revision to Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)

    (f) Within 7 days after April 21, 2008 (the effective date of AD
2008-08-06), revise the applicable sections of the applicable AFM by
inserting a copy of the applicable temporary revision (TR) listed in
Table 1 of this AD. Thereafter, operate the airplanes per the
limitation specified in the applicable TR, except as provided by
paragraphs (h) and (j) of this AD. Doing the revision required by
paragraph (h) of this AD terminates the requirements of this
paragraph.
    (g) When information identical to that in a TR specified in
paragraph (f) of this AD has been included in the general revisions
of the applicable AFM, the general revisions may be inserted into
the AFM, and the TR may be removed from that AFM.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed collection
of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Recordkeeping and Records Access Requirements for Food Facilities--21
CFR 1.337, 1.345, and 1.352 (OMB Control Number 0910-0560)--Extension

    The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and
Response Act of 2002 (the Bioterrorism Act) added section 414 of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD & C Act) (21 U.S.C. 350c),
which requires that persons who manufacture, process, pack, hold,
receive, distribute, transport, or import food in the United States
establish and maintain records identifying the immediate previous
sources and immediate subsequent recipients of food. Sections 1.326 to
1.363 (21 CFR 1.326 to 1.363) of FDA's regulations set forth the
requirements for recordkeeping and records access. The requirement to
establish and maintain records improves FDA's ability to respond to,
and further contain, threats of serious adverse health consequences or
death to humans or animals from accidental or deliberate contamination
of food.
    Description of respondents: Persons that manufacture, process,
pack, hold, receive, distribute, transport, or import food in the
United States are required to establish and maintain records, including
persons that engage in both interstate and intrastate commerce.
    FDA's regulations require that records for nontransporters include
the name and full contact information of sources, recipients, and
transporters, an adequate description of the food, including the
quantity and packaging, and the receipt and shipping dates (Sec. Sec.
1.337 and 1.345). Required records for transporters include the names
of consignor and consignee, points of origin and destination, date of
shipment, number of packages, description of freight, route of movement
and name of each carrier participating in the transportation, and
transfer points through which shipment moved (Sec.  1.352). Existing
records may be used if they contain all of the required information and
are retained for the required time period.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as
follows:

    This estimate is based on FDA's estimate of the number of
facilities affected by the final rule entitled ``Establishment and
Maintenance of Records Under the Public Health Security and
Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002,'' published in the
Federal Register of December 9, 2004 (69 FR 71562 at 71630). With
regard to records maintenance, FDA estimates that approximately 379,493
facilities will spend 13.228 hours collecting, recording, and checking
for accuracy the limited amount of additional information required by
the regulations, for a total of 5,020,000 hours annually. In addition,
FDA estimates that new firms entering the affected businesses will
incur a burden from learning the regulatory requirements and
understanding the records required for compliance. In this regard, the
Agency estimates the number of new firms entering the affected
businesses to be 5 percent (5%) of 379,493, or 18,975 firms. Thus, FDA
estimates that approximately 18,975 facilities will spend 4.790 hours
learning about the recordkeeping and records access requirements, for a
total of 90,890 hours annually. Therefore, the total annual
recordkeeping burden is estimated to be 5,110,890 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Funding Opportunity Description

Announcement Type: New Cooperative Agreement (U18)
Request for Applications (RFA) Number: FD-08-011 Sole Source
Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Number: 93.103
    In 2007 and 2008, the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act
of 2007 (FDAAA), the Food Protection Plan, and the Import Strategic
Action Plan addressed FDA's relationship with the States in food
protection activities. In addition, the Food Protection Plan lays out
new goals specific to protecting the food supply and responding to
incidents in a rapid and coordinated manner.

A. Food Protection Plan 2007

    In May 2007, the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the
Commissioner of Food and Drugs charged FDA with developing a
comprehensive and integrated Food Protection Plan to keep the nation's
food supply safe from both unintentional and deliberate contamination.
Driven by science and modern information technology, the Food
Protection Plan aims to identify potential hazards and counter them
before they can do harm. A cornerstone of this forward-thinking effort
is an increased focus on prevention.

B. Project Emphasis

    FDA's integrated approach within the Food Protection Plan
encompasses three core elements: Prevention, intervention and response.
Core Element 1: Prevention
    The prevention element involves promoting increased corporate
responsibility so that food problems do not occur in the first place.
By comprehensively reviewing food supply vulnerabilities and developing
and implementing risk reduction measures

with industry and other stakeholders, we can best address critical
weaknesses.
Core Element 2: Intervention
    The intervention element focuses on risk-based inspections,
sampling, and surveillance at high-risk points in the food supply
chain. These interventions must verify that the preventive measures are
being implemented and implemented correctly.
Core Element 3: Response
    The response element bolsters FDA's emergency response efforts by
allowing for increased speed and efficiency. This element also includes
the idea of better communication with other Federal, State, and local
government agencies and industry during and after emergencies. Whether
contamination is unintentional or deliberate, there is a need to
respond quickly and to communicate clearly with consumers and other
stakeholders. The communication should emphasize identifying products
of concern as well as informing the public of what is safe to consume.

C. Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007

    Under the Food and Drug Administration Amendment Act of 2007
(FDAAA), FDA is required to work with the states to improve food
safety. Section 1004 of the FDAAA states:
    ``(a) IN GENERAL--The Secretary shall work with the States in
undertaking activities and programs that assist in improving the safety
of food, including fresh and processed produce, so that State food
safety programs and activities conducted by the Secretary function in a
coordinated and cost-effective manner. With the assistance provided
under subsection (b), the Secretary shall encourage States to--
    (1) establish, continue, or strengthen State food safety programs,
especially with respect to the regulation of retail commercial food
establishments; and
    (2) establish procedures and requirements for ensuring that
processed produce under the jurisdiction of State food safety programs
is not unsafe for human consumption.''

D. Import Safety Action Plan

    The Import Safety Action Plan (ISAP) acknowledges the value of
mutual leveraging of State and Federal resources and recommends
consideration of cooperative agreements to increase information
sharing. Specifically, the ISAP provides the following recommendations:
Federal-State Rapid Response
Recommendation 12--Maximize Federal-State Collaboration
    The roles of and the resources used by the Federal Government and
the States in import safety are complementary. States possess
legislative authority and resources to respond to unsafe imported
products within their jurisdiction. The Federal Government can take
steps to interdict unsafe imported goods at ports of entry. Should an
unsafe product enter domestic commerce, federal departments and
agencies often work with State authorities to track it down, seize it,
notify the public if it has already been purchased by consumers, and
impose appropriate penalties on domestic entities who violate U.S. law.
Also, both the Federal Government and States may have access to
information relevant to protecting consumers that the other does not
possess. For example, Federal departments and agencies may have
relevant information about the foreign source of the imported product
and about the importer. This information can help State officials track
down an unsafe imported product within their jurisdiction. On the other
hand, State officials may identify an unsafe imported product during
transport or at the point of sale, if the product does get into the
country, and can tip off Federal officials to prevent future shipments
from entering domestic commerce.
    Several Federal departments and agencies already collaborate
closely with State authorities to protect consumers. For example, FDA
has contracts and cooperative agreements with State Governments to
share information, conduct joint inspections, and collaborate on
laboratory analyses. Greater mutual leveraging of State and Federal
resources can further enhance consumer protection.
    Recommendation 12.1 states: ``Consider cooperative agreements
between the federal inspection agencies and their state counterparts
for greater information-sharing.'' Such cooperative agreements would
not infringe on the statutory authorities of Federal or State
regulators and would encourage a coordinated effort that would result
in a more rapid and effective response. Establishing clear procedures
and points of contact for information sharing and joint enforcement
efforts can further enhance the effectiveness of Federal-State actions
to limit exposure and potential harm to consumers if an unsafe imported
product enters domestic commerce.

II. Award Information

Mechanism of Support

    Support will be in the form of a Sole Source cooperative agreement
U18 Mechanism. Substantive involvement by the awarding agency is
inherent in the cooperative agreement award. Accordingly, FDA will have
substantial involvement in the program activities of the project funded
by the cooperative agreement.

III. Eligibility Information

A. Eligible Applicants

    ORA is offering this sole source cooperative agreement to AFDO to
improve and update the Directory of State and Local Officials (current
version is from 2004) to provide information for Rapid Response and
information sharing. AFDO will also update the data in the AFDO State
Food Safety Resource Survey including recall and foodborne illness
investigation information to identify and to support Risk Management
and information sharing. Assistance will be provided only to the AFDO.
No other applications are solicited.

B. Applicability

    AFDO is uniquely qualified for this cooperative agreement. AFDO
(http://www.afdo.org/) conducted a nationwide survey of State and local
food safety programs in 2000 and, with the National Center for Food
Protection and Defense, has been an active partner in the FoodSHIELD
project (http://www.afdo.org/afdo/upload/061025-
FoodSHIELD%20Brochure.pdf, http://www.foodshield.org/), during which
AFDO has collected contact information of State and local jurisdictions
comparable to the FDA Directory of State and Local Officials (http://
www.fda.gov/ora/fed_state/directorytable.htm). AFDO is the
organization qualified for conducting this work because:
     AFDO is the only national organization that represents the
State and local food protection regulatory agencies. AFDO's principal
purpose is to act as a leader and a resource to State and local
regulatory agencies in developing strategies to resolve and promote
public health and consumer protection related to the regulation of
foods, drugs, medical devices, and consumer products. Regular members
are officials of State and local regulatory agencies that administer
these programs in conjunction and collaboration with FDA.
     AFDO has always focused on the administration of the
nation's food

protection programs. Thus, unlike other organizations, AFDO has a
unique perspective on the infrastructure, capacity, strengths, and
needs of State and local food protection programs.
     AFDO has successful experience in carrying out national
efforts that focus on the needs of State and local regulatory agencies.
FDA has used the data from the initial AFDO State Food Safety Resource
Survey, AFDO model codes, and training programs such as the Seafood
HACCP training program certified through AFDO. AFDO has also developed
the AFDO Recall Manual and many other training programs and initiatives
with the Centers for Disease Control, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, and others in meat and poultry processing at retail. AFDO
also has industry associate members.

C. Award Amount

    The total amount of funding available for fiscal years 2008 through
2010 is $250,000. This cooperative agreement will award up to $250,000
in total (direct plus indirect) costs for a 3-year cooperative
agreement.

D. Length of Support

    The length of support for this project will be 3 years.

E. Cost Sharing or Matching

    Cost sharing is not required.

IV. Application and Submission
