Airworthiness Directives; Goodyear Aviation Tires

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for
Goodyear Aviation Tires, part number 299K63-1 (Brazilian made new tires
only), installed on various transport category airplanes, including but
not limited to Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2B19 airplanes. This AD
results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and
correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes
the unsafe condition as tire tread separations and tread-area bulges on
the main landing gear tires due to low adhesion in the tread shoulder
area. The unsafe condition is specific to Brazilian produced new tires,
size H29x9.0-15, only; retread tires are not affected by this AD. This
condition, if not detected and corrected, could cause the main landing
gear tires to fail during takeoff or landing. The failure may cause
damage to the airplane structure, flaps, engine, and wheel well and
result in reduced controllability of the airplane. We are issuing this
AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these
products.

DATES: This AD is effective September 13, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of September 13,
2012.
    We must receive comments on this AD by October 15, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil (ANAC),
which is the aviation authority for Brazil, has issued Brazilian
Airworthiness Directive 2012-05-01, dated June 5, 2012 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    This AD was prompted by reports of tread separations and tread-
area bulges on the main landing gear tire. The ANAC is issuing this
AD to prevent tread separation from the main landing gear tire
during takeoff or landing, which could result in structural damage
to the airplane, damage to the flaps, engine, wheel well, and
consequent reduced controllability of the airplane on the runway or
in the air.

The MCAI requires replacing all affected tires and prohibits any future
installation of the affected tires. You may obtain further information
by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Goodyear Aviation has issued Service Bulletin 2012-32-001, dated
April 19, 2012. The actions described in this service information are
intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of the 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 this State of Design Authority, they
have notified us of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and
service information referenced above. We are issuing this AD because we
evaluated all information provided by the State of Design Authority and
determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or
develop on other products of the same type design.

FAA's Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public justifies
waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because
failure of the main landing gear tires during takeoff or landing could
cause damage to the airplane structure, flaps, engine, wheel well and
may result in reduced controllability of the airplane. Therefore, we
determined that notice and opportunity for public comment before
issuing this AD are impracticable and that good cause exists for making
this amendment effective in fewer than 30 days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public
comment. We invite you to send any written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under
the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2012-0881; Directorate
Identifier 2012-CE-029-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.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect about 3,400 tires potentially
installed on products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it would
take about 3 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour.
Required parts would cost about $2,000 per product.
    Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD on U.S.
operators to be $7,667,000, or $2,255 per product.
    According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be
covered on a one-to-one basis as noted in Goodyear Aviation Service
Bulletin 2012-32-001, dated April 19, 2012, thereby reducing the cost
impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty or exchange
coverage for affected operators. 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 AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by

Adoption of the Amendment

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

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

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

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

Sec.  39.13  [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by adding the following new AD:

2012-17-01 Goodyear Aviation Tires: Amendment 39-17164; Docket No.
FAA-2012-0881; Directorate Identifier 2012-CE-029-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective September
13, 2012.

(b) Affected ADs

    None.

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to the following new Goodyear Aviation Tires
(retreads are not affected by this AD), installed on various
transport category airplanes, including but not limited to
Bombardier, Inc. Model CL-600-2B19 airplanes:
    (1) New tire part number (P/N) 299K63-1 with the following
specifications:
    (i) Tire size: H29x9.0-15;
    (ii) Ply rating: 16PR; and
    (iii) Speed rating: 210 miles per hour.
    (2) Serial numbers (S/N) 01867xxx through 02737xxx with the
following specifications:
    (i) The 5th digit of the serial number must be a ``7''; and
    (ii) ``XXX'' can be any combination of three single digit
numbers.

(d) Subject

    Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 32: Landing
gear.

(e) Reason

    This AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness
information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another
country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation
product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as tire tread
separations and tread-area bulges on the main landing gear tires due
to low adhesion in the tread should area. We are issuing this AD to
prevent failure of the main landing gear tires during takeoff or
landing, which could cause damage to the airplane structure, flaps,
engine, and wheel well and result in reduced controllability of the
airplane.

(f) Actions and Compliance

    Unless already done, do the following actions in accordance with
Goodyear Aviation Service Bulletin 2012-32-001, dated April 19,
2012.
    (1) Within the next 5 flight cycles (landings) after September
13, 2012 (the effective date of this AD), inspect the main landing
gear tires, P/N 299K63-1, to determine if an affected S/N tire, as
specified in paragraph (c) of this AD, is installed. A review of the
airplane maintenance records is acceptable in lieu of this
inspection if the P/N and S/N of the tires installed can be
positively determined from that review. Operators that do not
maintain landing records can determine the number of landings by
dividing the number of airplane hours time-in-service (TIS) by two.
    (2) Before further flight after the inspection required in
paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, replace any tire that has an affected
serial number.
    (3) As of September 13, 2012 (the effective date of this AD), do
not install any main landing gear tire, P/N 299K63-1, that has an
affected serial number specified in paragraph (c)(2) of this AD.

(g) Other FAA AD Provisions

    The following provisions also apply to this AD:
    (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
Atlanta Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, has the authority
to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures
found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send information to ATTN: Samuel Belete,
Aerospace Engineer, FAA, Atlanta ACO, 1701 Columbia Avenue, College
Park, Georgia 30337; phone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>;
email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Before using any approved AMOC on any
airplane to which the AMOC applies, notify your appropriate
principal inspector (PI) in the FAA Flight Standards District Office
(FSDO), or lacking a PI, your local FSDO.
    (2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement in this AD to obtain
corrective actions from a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective actions are considered
FAA-approved if they are approved by the State of Design Authority
(or their delegated agent). You are required to assure the product
is airworthy before it is returned to service.
    (3) Reporting Requirements: For any reporting requirement in
this AD, a federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person
is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a
penalty for failure to comply with a collection of information
subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless
that collection of information displays a current valid OMB Control
Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is
2120-0056. Public reporting for this collection of information is
estimated to be approximately 5 minutes per response, including the
time for reviewing instructions, completing and reviewing the
collection of information. All responses to this collection of
information are mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this
burden and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to
the FAA at: 800 Independence Ave. SW., Washington, DC 20591, Attn:
Information Collection Clearance Officer, AES-200.

(h) Special Flight Permit

    We are allowing a one-time special flight permit to return the
airplane to a suitable maintenance base provided a detailed
inspection of the main landing gear tires is done and no tread
separation or bulge is detected.

11:46 a.m.

		MR. EWEN:  Okay.  Let's get started again here.  And just to talk
through some of the details of the submittal of public comments here.
First off, the agenda indicates a break from noon to one.  And I think,
given the fact that probably some or many of you have made lunch plans
based on that agenda, we are likely to break right around 12.  But let's
just see how things go here.  Fourteen of you have grabbed a card to get
in line to give your comments.  And let's just see how that proceeds.  I
don't want to constrain, in any way, anyone's ability or opportunity to
submit a comment.

		A couple of things here, just to remind you, there is a stenographer
here.  We'll open the record.  It will be an official transcript created
of your comments.  That transcript will be submitted or entered in to
the docket for this overall proceeding.  And EPA will use those
comments, review and consider them, as they consider next steps for this
whole policy proposal.  As you are giving your comments, we have, just
to maintain or ensure a clear concise transcript for purposes of EPA's
review, we are holding out the prospect of the EPA Panel here.  Perhaps
asking you a simple or basic clarifying question or two, based on your
comment.  But we don't expect any significant back and forth.  Just a
few clarifying questions perhaps here or there.  Step to the microphone
there.  It's a pretty good microphone system.  You don't have to get up
close to the mic.  Just six inches or so.  And you can stand normally
and talk in to the mic.  And your comments will be recorded by the
stenographer.

		For those of you, well, when you step to the podium, provide your
name, please and spell it for purposes of the record.  And provide your
affiliation.  For those of you who are interested in staying involved
with this process over time and are interested in being on the contact
list for any outreach that EPA may engage in going forward, make sure
that your name, and email, and number, phone number, and things are
entered on the sheet outside the room, that you probably have already
signed before you came in.  But make sure your contact information is
there, if you want to continue to participate in this process and
receive any communications that EPA might send out regarding this policy
process.

		So the order of commentors, you have, obviously EPA thinks of you as
much more than your numbers, but we've given you a number.  And we'll
proceed in that order.  This general admonitions apply.  Please speak
loudly and clearly.  And as a starting point, we don't have too many
commentors, but I'm going to, I'm going to set a rough time limit of
about ten minutes.  And we'll see how well that works for everyone.  But
think about, kind of a rough time limit of ten minutes, to get started.

		And I think from my end that's about it.  Is there any other details
from the Panel or any questions before we get started?

		(No audible response.)

		Okay.  So if number 1 is ready to go, and I'll just -- if number 1 has
left, I'll keep going through the numbers.  But if the person with the
first card is ready you can proceed to the podium with your comment.
Okay.  Number 2.  Or 3.  Can I hear 4?  Okay.  5.  6.  7.  8.  9.  10.
Does anyone intend to submit?  Oh, do we have 11?  Oh, good.  He was
moving.

		PARTICIPANT:  It sounds like an auction.

		MR. EWEN:  10.  11.  Okay.  Very good.  Excellent.

		MR. COOPER:  I didn't expect to go first as number 11 --

		MR. EWEN:  Right.

		MR. COOPER:  -- but I'll take it.

		MR. EWEN:  Just again your name --

		MR. COOPER:  Yes.

		MR. EWEN:  -- and spell it for the stenographer.

		MR. COOPER:  Sure.  My name is Andrew Cooper.  A-N-D-R-E-W.
C-O-O-P-E-R.  And I'm with the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro.  And I
just wanted to reiterate a few of the comments that came up in the
discussion before the public comment session.

		The first is, I wanted to express some concern that a seller, under
this scenario, could require non-disclosure.  And could require
indemnification by the buyer for any penalties that are disclosed.  And
we could be in a situation where, essentially, if the seller has
potential liability for the disclosure, the seller could undermine that
through contractual provisions and essentially create a situation where
the buyer would be hard pressed to use this policy.

		The second is, pretty much, my second comment is pretty much in the
same vein with the first.  To express some concern about an enquiry in
to purchase price reductions or indemnifications, as consideration in
the policy, simply because, again, that should be something negotiated
between the seller and buyer.  And if we're in a position where that's
looked in to and that has an impact on the use of the policy, then we
could be, again, put in a position where the seller essentially could
undermine the policy or even the buyer could unfairly leverage the
policy in such a way, recognizing that EPA is going to look in to the
specifics of the contractual documentation.

		Finally, a point that I raised in earlier discussion.  Wanted to
caution you about finding a trigger point from which the clock begins to
run, in terms of recognizing that, of course, the buyer can't take any
kind of action until the buyer is in control.  Until the buyer has
closed on the deal.  And furthermore, even then, it could say, take some
time because it would be difficult, in some instances, certainly in my
experience, to immediately take action after, following closing. There
are, of course, all the non-environmental issues that have to be
resolved.  And as control is taken, that can all take some time.

		I think those were my only comments.  But I'm just taking a quick
look.  I think those -- that's it for my oral comments.  But I'm sure
we'll be submitting written comments as well.  And thank you very much
for the opportunity.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  I have a question.

		MR. COOPER:  Of course.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  And a request.

		A question.  I wanted to better understand what you meant when you
said, if we examine the existence of an indemnity agreement.  And go
into the purchase price.  And whether there was, I guess, any
consideration of environmental liabilities.  You talked about the buyer
leveraging that.  If you could say a little bit more about that.

		MR. COOPER:  Sure.  Well, what I'm thinking is, that the buyer could
be in a position to say, "Well we aren't worried.  We're going to be
protected.  And we're going to use that policy in such a way, seller,
that if you don't give us what we want, we'll make the disclosure.
You'll be liable.  And therefore, what do you say we put, I don't know
what, some kind of provision in the contractual documentation.  And in
return for that, we won't make the disclosure."  So either party,
essentially, in different, under different circumstances, if there's an
understanding that EPA is going to look at the contractual documentation
and if there's an understanding that effectively all of this is opened
up, either party could take advantage of that --

		MS. O'KEEFE:  Yes.

		MR. COOPER:  -- in what I think we'd probably consider a way that's
against public policy.  But would be in the parties best interest to get
the best possible deal.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  Yes.

		MR. COOPER:  And so you can't really tell the party that they can't do
that, if you given them the tool to do that.  And again, that's, whether
you're talking about a buyer or a seller.  Either, could leverage the
policy, if they know that you're going to be looking in to the
documentation.  Or if they know that, for instance, the seller becomes
liable for all the penalties after the transaction.  So that's, I guess,
in a nutshell.  Kind of a big nutshell.  But in a nutshell, that's what
I meant.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  That's helpful.

		And a request.

		MR. COOPER:  Oh.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  You cautioned against developing a  trigger point.  That
was your word, your phrase.

		MR. COOPER:  Yes.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  And I guess what -- it would be helpful to us, if you
could give us a sense of what you think would make sense in defining,
how new does an owner have to be?  You know, what's the window of
opportunity, if we go forward with the program, that makes sense?  So
that we can drive compliance to happen as quickly as possible while
giving a new owner the opportunity to get their feet wet and fully
settled when they're, maybe looking at a lot of other issues.  And will
be looking at a lot of other issues besides environmental ones.

		MR. COOPER:  Okay.  I'm making a note of that for our written, for our
submission of written comments.  But -- and I would expect written
comments would be a little more, our written comments would be a bit
more expansive.  But I just figured since we got to 11 so quickly, I
would provide my oral comments while given the opportunity.

		Thank you very much.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  Thank you.  Thank you very much.

		MR. EWEN:  And I think as a general notion, EPA would encourage any,
obviously, any follow-up written comments that you have to your oral
comments here today.

		It struck me that, for purposes of the record, I should probably just
get on the record, that this is the public hearing or Public Meeting for
the Enhancing Environmental Outcomes From Audit Policy Disclosures
Through Tailored Incentives for New Owners.  And the date is June 12th,
2007.

		And we are on to commentor number 12.  Or 13.  Or 14.  Or anyone else
who is interested in standing before us and providing oral comment
today.  Okay.  Seeing no hands, is there anything else from the EPA
folks that we should get on the transcript here for purposes of a clear
record?

		PARTICIPANT:  I'd just say probably one thing.  And that is sort of
like picking up what Mr. Cooper was, was sort of getting at.  And that
is, we're interested in very practical kinds of issues.  If we're going
to go with the sort of making a Pilot Program, I want to make sure the
thing really works.  Doesn't create a bunch of perverse incentives.  So
think in terms of, you know, what would make it work?  What might go
wrong?  So we can a full airing of the issues.  If those of you,
preparing written comments.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  Well before we break for lunch, I want to thank everyone
in the room for having come.  And you're welcome to return this
afternoon.  We are going to be here from 1 until 4.  It is a Public
Meeting.  And anyone who can come, can come in and make a remark.  So if
you decide you want to come back this afternoon, after lunch, and put
comments on the record, we would be delighted to see you.

		And I really appreciated the frank questions and exchange.  That was
very helpful this morning.  I know we all, we all got a lot out of it.
And I hope you did.  And we appreciate the time you've taken to sit and
listen to others, and ask your questions, and give us your thoughts.

		So hope to see you this afternoon, some of you.  And thank you again.
And we look forward to receiving any written comments you may submit
later on, as well.

		MR. EWEN:  Thank you.

		MS. O'KEEFE:  Off the record?

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action amends VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal
airway V-573 and Area Navigation (RNAV) route T-398. The FAA is taking
this action due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR portion of
the Sulphur Springs, TX (SLR), VOR/Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/
DME) navigational aid (NAVAID). The Sulphur Springs VOR is being
decommissioned in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network
(MON) program.

DATES: Effective date 0901 UTC, February 23, 2023. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this incorporation by reference action under
1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual

revision of FAA Order JO 7400.11 and publication of conforming
amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code. 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. 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
the 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 modifies the route structure as necessary to preserve
the safe and efficient flow of air traffic within the National Airspace
System (NAS).

History

    The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No.
FAA-2022-0617 in the Federal Register (87 FR 31436; May 24, 2022),
amending VOR Federal airway V-573 and RNAV route T-398. The proposed
amendment actions were due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR
portion of the Sulphur Springs, TX, VOR/DME NAVAID. Interested parties
were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting
written comments on the proposal. No comments were received.
    VOR Federal airways are published in paragraph 6010(a) and United
States Area Navigation Routes are published in paragraph 6011 of FAA
Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September 15,
2022, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Air
Traffic Service (ATS) routes listed in this document will be published
subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document amends FAA Order JO 7400.11G, Airspace Designations
and Reporting Points, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September
15, 2022. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is publicly available as listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order JO 7400.11G lists Class
A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by amending VOR Federal airway V-
573 and RNAV route T-398 due to the planned decommissioning of the VOR
portion of the Sulphur Springs, TX (SLR), VOR/DME. The ATS route
actions are described below.
    V-573: V-573 extends between the Will Rogers, OK, VORTAC and the
Little Rock, AR, VORTAC. The airway segment overlying the Sulphur
Springs VOR/DME between the Bonham, TX, VORTAC and the Texarkana, AR,
VORTAC is removed. As amended, the airway is changed to extend between
the Will Rogers, OK, VORTAC and the Bonham, TX, VORTAC; and between the
Texarkana, AR, VORTAC and the Little Rock, AR, VORTAC.
    T-398: T-398 extends between the SLOTH, TX, waypoint (WP), and the
GMINI, NC, WP. The route is extended further westward between the
RRORY, TX, WP being established near the Bonham, TX, VORTAC and the
SLOTH, TX, WP. The added RNAV route segment overlays the V-573 airway
segment being removed between the Bonham, TX, VORTAC and the Texarkana,
AR, VORTAC, noted above. The full route legal description is included
in the amendments to part 71 set forth below.
    The NAVAID radials listed in the VOR Federal airway description
below are unchanged and stated in True degrees.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points,
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this 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
Department of Transportation (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.

Environmental Review

    The FAA has determined that this action of amending VOR Federal
airway V-573 and RNAV route T-398, due to the planned decommissioning
of the VOR portion of the Sulphur Springs, TX, VOR/DME NAVAID,
qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental
Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations at
40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F,
Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, paragraph 5-6.5a, which
categorically excludes from further environmental impact review
rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas,
airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation
of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes;
and Reporting Points) and paragraph 5-6.5i, which categorically
excludes from further environmental impact review the establishment of
new or revised air traffic control procedures conducted at 3,000 feet
or more above ground level (AGL); procedures conducted below 3,000 feet
AGL that do not cause traffic to be routinely routed over noise
sensitive areas; modifications to currently approved procedures
conducted below 3,000 feet AGL that do not significantly increase noise
over noise sensitive areas; and increases in minimum altitudes and
landing minima. As such, this action is not expected to result in any
potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, paragraph 5-2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, the
FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a
normally categorically excluded action may have a significant
environmental impact requiring further analysis. The FAA has determined
that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of
an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

 Jinhao Motor Company; Order of Suspension of Trading

 January 24, 2014.
    It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
Jinhao Motor Company because it has not filed any periodic reports
since the period ended September 30, 2010.
    The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed company. Therefore, it is ordered,
pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that
trading in the securities of the above-listed company is suspended for
the period from 9:30 a.m. EST on January 24, 2014, through 11:59 p.m.
EST on February 6, 2014.

    By the Commission.

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing
airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of
another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an
aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

    During maintenance, it has been discovered that at the
installation of the fixation brackets for rudder spring tabs and
trim tabs an incorrect installation of the fixation brackets may
have occurred. * * *
    If the orientation of the fixation bracket is reversed or upside
down the screws may not reach into the helicoil thread to a
sufficient depth.
    An incorrect installation, if not detected and corrected, could
lead to an in-flight failure of the fixation brackets for rudder
spring tabs and trim tabs resulting in and reduced control of the
aeroplane.
* * * * *

We are issuing this AD to require actions to correct the unsafe
condition on these products.

DATES: This AD becomes effective August 22, 2011.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of August 22,
2011.

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov or in person at the U.S. Department of
Transportation, Docket Operations, M-30, West Building Ground Floor,
Room W12-140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products.
That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on April 8, 2011 (76 FR
19721). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    During maintenance, it has been discovered that at the
installation of the fixation brackets for rudder spring tabs and
trim tabs an incorrect installation of the fixation brackets may
have occurred. It is possible that the fixation bracket assembly may
be incorrectly orientated and as a result the position of the
helicoil inserts on the fixation bracket may be incorrect.
    If the orientation of the fixation bracket is reversed or upside
down the screws may not reach into the helicoil thread to a
sufficient depth.
    An incorrect installation, if not detected and corrected, could
lead to an in-flight failure of the fixation brackets for rudder
spring tabs and trim tabs resulting in and reduced control of the
aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, the TC [type
certificate] holder has developed a one-time inspection to detect
and correct any incorrect installations of the fixation brackets for
rudder spring tabs and trim tabs.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires a one-
time [detailed] inspection of all rudder trim- and spring tab
fixation brackets, the correction of any parts that are incorrectly
installed and the reporting of all findings to the TC holder. This
[EASA] AD is considered to be an interim action and an improved
design bracket attachment is expected to be developed.

The detailed inspection includes determining if the helicoil inserts of
the rudder trim tab and spring tab fixation brackets are correctly
oriented and are facing the fitting surface, and if not, inspecting the
fittings and helicoil inserts for correct installation. The corrective
actions include re-orienting the fittings and helicoil inserts, and
replacing the fitting with a serviceable one. You may obtain further
information by examining the MCAI in the AD docket.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in
general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it
necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the
AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these
changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information
provided in the MCAI and related service information.
    We might also have required different actions in this AD from those
in the MCAI in order to follow our FAA policies. Any such differences
are highlighted in a Note within the AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect about 55 products of U.S.
registry. We also estimate that it will take about 2 work-hours per
product to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate
the cost of this AD to the U.S. operators to be $9,350, or $170 per
product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

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

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this AD will not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct
effect on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this AD:
    1. Is not a ''significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order
12866;
    2. Is not a ''significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 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.

Examining the AD Docket

    You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov; or in person at the Docket Operations office
between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays. The AD docket contains the NPRM, the regulatory evaluation,
any comments received, and other information. The street address for
the Docket Operations office (telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>) is in the
ADDRESSES section. Comments will be available in the AD docket shortly
after receipt.

BILLING CODE 4910-13-P


			  UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

		        DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

			  OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY

			          WASHINGTON, D.C.

Issued by the Department of Transportation on January 15, 2004

NOTICE OF ACTION TAKEN -- DOCKET OST 2003-16803

________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________

This serves as notice to the public of the action described below, taken
by the Department official indicated (no additional confirming order
will be issued in this matter).

Applicant:  VOLGA-DNEPR J.S. CARGO AIRLINE
Second Amendment Filed:  January 14, 2004

Relief requested:  Amend exemption from 49 U.S.C. section 40109(g),
granted December 31, 2003, and amended January 14, 2004, permitting the
applicant to operate a one-way, cargo charter flight from Philadelphia
to Moffet Field, using its AN-124-100 aircraft, carrying a Lockheed
Martin Space Systems satellite, to extend the effectiveness of that
authority through January 20, 2004.  The applicant stated that Lockheed
Martin needed to extend the carriage date due to a production delay.

Applicant representative:  Glenn P. Wicks,<PHONE_NUMBER>         DOT
analyst:  Allen F. Brown,<PHONE_NUMBER>

Responsive pleadings:  Volga-Dnepr had served its initial application on
those U.S. carriers operating large all-cargo aircraft and, in addition,
served its second amendment on those same carriers.  Each carrier
indicated that it did not have aircraft available to conduct the
proposed operations and that it had no comment or did not oppose grant
of the requested authority.

Statutory Standards:  Under 49 U.S.C. section 40109(g), we may authorize
a foreign air carrier to carry commercial traffic between U.S. points
(i.e., cabotage traffic) under limited circumstances.  Specifically, we
must find that the authority is required in the public interest; that
because of an emergency created by unusual circumstances not arising in
the normal course of business the traffic cannot be accommodated by U.S.
carriers holding certificates under 49 U.S.C. section 41102; that all
possible efforts have been made to place the traffic on U.S. carriers;
and that the transportation is necessary to avoid unreasonable hardship
to the traffic involved (an additional required finding, concerning
emergency transportation during labor disputes, was not relevant here).

        DISPOSITION

Action: Approved
                                             Action date:  January 15,
2004

Effective dates of authority granted:  January 15, 2004, through January
20, 2004

Basis for approval:  On December 31, 2003, we granted (see NOAT issued
on that date in this Docket) Volga-Dnepr’s request to operate its
proposed one-way flights from Philadelphia to Moffet Field, through
January 11, 2004.  In taking that action, we found that its request met
all the relevant criteria of 49 U.S.C. section 40109(g) for the grant of
an exemption of this type and that the grant was required in the public
interest.  On January 15, 2004, we granted (see NOAT issued on that date
in this Docket) Volga-Dnepr’s request to operate that flight through
January 16, 2004.  In its second amendment (filed January 14, 2004),
Volga-Dnepr asserts that Lockheed needs to extend the shipping date
through January 20, 2004, because of the production delay.  Under the
circumstances, we again find that this request to extend again the
duration of the authority continues to meet all the relevant statutory
criteria warranting grant.  Thus, we are granting Volga-Dnepr’s
request to conduct this one flight through January 20, 2004. Moreover,
based on the representations of the U.S. carriers, we continue to
conclude that no U.S. carrier has aircraft available that could be used
to conduct the operation at issue here.  We also found that grant of
this authority, as extended, would prevent unreasonable hardship to
Lockheed Martin Space Systems, and that the applicant continues to be
qualified to perform its proposed operation.

Except to the extent exempted/waived, this authority is subject to our
standard exemption conditions and to the condition that the applicant
must comply with an FAA-approved flight routing for the authorized
operation.
