SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following is a summary of the
application. The complete application may be obtained via the
Commission's website by searching for the file number, or for an
applicant using the Company name box, at http://www.sec.gov/search/search.htm, or by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>.

Summary of the Application

    1. Applicants request an order to permit (a) a Fund \1\ (each a
``Fund of Funds'') to acquire shares of Underlying Funds \2\ in excess
of the limits in sections 12(d)(1)(A) and (C) of the Act and (b) the
Underlying Funds that are registered open-end investment companies or
series thereof, their principal underwriters and any broker or dealer
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to sell shares of
the Underlying Fund to the Fund of Funds in excess of the limits in
section 12(d)(1)(B) of the Act.\3\ Applicants also request an order of
exemption under sections 6(c) and 17(b) of the Act from the prohibition
on certain affiliated transactions in section 17(a) of the Act to the
extent necessary to permit the Underlying Funds to sell their shares
to, and redeem their shares from, the Funds of Funds.\4\ Applicants
state that such transactions will be consistent with the policies of
each Fund of Funds and each Underlying Fund and with the general
purposes of the Act and will be based on the net asset values of the
Underlying Funds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Applicants request that the order apply to each existing and
future series of the Trust and to each existing and future
registered open-end management investment company or series thereof
that is advised by Initial Adviser or its successor-in-interest or
by any other investment adviser controlling, controlled by or under
common control with the Initial Adviser or its successor-in-interest
and is part of the same ``group of investment companies'' as the
Trust (each, a ``Fund''). For purposes of the requested order,
``successor-in-interest'' is limited to an entity that results from
a reorganization into another jurisdiction or a change in the type
of business organization. For purposes of the request for relief,
the term ``group of investment companies,'' as defined in Section
12(d)(1)(G)(ii) of the Act, means any two or more registered
investment companies, including closed-end investment companies and
business development companies, that hold themselves out to
investors as related companies for purposes of investment and
investor services.
    \2\ Certain of the Underlying Funds have obtained exemptions
from the Commission necessary to permit their shares to be listed
and traded on a national securities exchange at negotiated prices
and, accordingly, to operate as an exchange-traded fund (``ETF'').
    \3\ Applicants do not request relief for Funds of Funds to
invest in reliance on the order in business development companies
and registered closed-end investment companies that are not listed
and traded on a national securities exchange.
    \4\ A Fund of Funds generally would purchase and sell shares of
an Underlying Fund that operates as an ETF through secondary market
transactions rather than through principal transactions with the
Underlying Fund. Applicants nevertheless request relief from
sections 17(a)(1) and (2) to permit each ETF that is an affiliated
person, or an affiliated person of an affiliated person, as defined
in section 2(a)(3) of the Act, of a Fund of Funds, to sell shares to
or redeem shares from the Fund of Funds. This includes, in the case
of sales and redemptions of shares of ETFs, the in-kind transactions
that accompany such sales and redemptions. Applicants are not
seeking relief from section 17(a) for, and the requested relief will
not apply to, transactions where an ETF could be deemed an
affiliated person, or an affiliated person of an affiliated person,
of a Fund of Funds because an investment adviser to the ETF or an
entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the
investment adviser to the ETF is also an investment adviser to the
Fund of Funds. A Fund of Funds will purchase and sell shares of an
Underlying Fund that is a closed-end fund (including a business
development company) through secondary market transactions at market
prices rather than through principal transactions with the closed-
end fund. Accordingly, applicants are not requesting section 17(a)
relief with respect to principal transactions with closed-end funds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. Applicants agree that any order granting the requested relief
will be subject to the terms and conditions stated in the application.
Such terms and conditions are designed to, among other things, help
prevent any potential (a) undue influence over an Underlying Fund that
is not in the same ``group of investment companies'' as the Fund of
Funds through control or voting power, or in connection with certain
services, transactions, and underwritings, (b) excessive layering of
fees, and (c) overly complex fund structures, which are the concerns
underlying the limits in sections 12(d)(1)(A), (B), and (C) of the Act.
    3. Section 12(d)(1)(J) of the Act provides that the Commission may
exempt any person, security, or transaction, or any class or classes of
persons, securities, or transactions, from any provision of section
12(d)(1) if the exemption is consistent with the public interest and
the protection of investors. Section 17(b) of the Act authorizes the
Commission to grant an order permitting a transaction otherwise
prohibited by section 17(a) if it finds that (a) the terms of the
proposed transaction are fair and reasonable and do not involve
overreaching on the part of any person concerned; (b) the proposed
transaction is consistent with the policies of each registered
investment company involved; and (c) the proposed transaction is
consistent with the general purposes of the Act. Section 6(c) of the
Act permits the Commission to exempt any persons or transactions from
any provision of the Act if such exemption is necessary or appropriate
in the public interest and consistent with the protection of investors
and the purposes fairly intended by the policy and provisions of the
Act.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
pursuant to delegated authority.
Eduardo A. Aleman,
Assistant Secretary.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-60807; File No. SR-FINRA-2009-064]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Order Granting Accelerated
Approval of Proposed Rule Change Relating to the Publication of Certain
Daily and Monthly Short Sale Data on the FINRA Web Site

October 9, 2009.
    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 September 24, 2009, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(``FINRA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC''
or ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and
II below, which Items have been substantially prepared by FINRA. The
Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the
proposed rule change from interested persons and simultaneously
approving the proposed rule change on an accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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

    FINRA is proposing a rule change relating to the publication of
certain daily and monthly short sale data on the FINRA Web site. FINRA
is not proposing any textual changes to the By-Laws, Schedules to the
By-Laws, or Rules of FINRA.
    The text of the proposed rule change is available on FINRA's Web
site at http://www.finra.org, at the principal office of FINRA and at
the Commission's Public Reference Room.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, FINRA 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. FINRA has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A,
B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    In coordination with SEC staff, FINRA is publishing on its Web
site: (1) aggregate daily short sale volume data by security for NMS
stocks \3\ and OTC Equity Securities,\4\ and (2) monthly short sale
transaction data by security for NMS stocks.\5\ Due to the more

manual, member-driven reporting structure inherent in the over-the-
counter market, FINRA notes that data imperfections may be more likely
than with similar reporting by the exchanges. FINRA is filing this
proposed rule change to describe the content and parameters of the
short sale data files that will be made publicly available on the FINRA
Web site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Rule 600 of SEC Regulation NMS defines ``NMS stock'' as any
``NMS security'' other than an option, and further defines ``NMS
security'' as any security or class of securities for which
transaction reports are collected, processed, and made available
pursuant to an effective transaction reporting plan, or an effective
national market system plan for reporting transactions in listed
options.
    \4\ FINRA Rule 6420 defines ``OTC Equity Security'' as any non-
exchange-listed security and certain exchange-listed securities that
do not otherwise qualify for real-time trade reporting.
    \5\ By letter dated July 2, 2009, and as discussed in subsequent
conversations, SEC staff requested that FINRA publish on its Web
site certain daily short sale volume files and monthly short sale
transaction files. SEC staff stated that it believes that the
publication of this data, and the resulting increased market
transparency, may help bolster investor confidence and thereby help
promote capital formation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Daily Short Sale Volume File
    For each trading date, FINRA will post on its Web site the daily
short sale volume file within a reasonable amount of time after the end
of regular trading hours on that trading day.\6\ As a general rule,
aggregate short sale volume for equity securities executed and reported
to any of the FINRA Facilities during regular trading hours will be
included in the file.\7\ The daily short sale volume file will provide
information on the aggregate volume of short sales reported to a
consolidated tape out of the total volume of executed trades during
regular trading hours on each trading day.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See 17 CFR 242.600(b)(64) (defining ``regular trading
hours'').
    \7\ Transactions may be reported through the Alternative Display
Facility (``ADF''), a Trade Reporting Facility (``TRF''), or through
the OTC Reporting Facility (``ORF''). The ADF, TRFs and ORF are
collectively referred to herein as the ``FINRA Facilities.'' Trades
in certain classes of securities, such as Rule 144A securities, are
reported to the ORF, but not disseminated. Non-disseminated
securities will not be included in either the daily short sale
volume file or the monthly short sale transaction file.
    \8\ Certain OTC transactions (e.g., riskless principal and
agency transactions where one member is acting on behalf of another
member) are reported to FINRA in related tape and non-tape reports.
Tape reports are submitted to FINRA for public dissemination by the
appropriate exclusive Securities Information Processor (``SIP''),
while non-tape reports are submitted to FINRA, but are not submitted
to the SIP for public dissemination. FINRA will not be including
non-tape reports in either the daily short sale volume file or the
monthly short sale transaction file. Accordingly, in those instances
where the short sale indicator is only included in the related non-
tape report, the short sale data published in the daily and monthly
files may be under-inclusive. Similarly, the published figures will
not include odd lots since these transactions are not disseminated
to the consolidated tape.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA expects to begin publishing the daily short sale volume file
on a going forward basis in October 2009, but no later than the end of
fourth quarter 2009.\9\ Specifically, the Short Sale Volume File will
include the following fields: \10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ While initial publication of the daily short sale volume
file will not commence until fourth quarter 2009, once published,
the data will include daily files from August 3rd, 2009. FINRA will
retain one year of historical short sale data from the date of
initial publication onward on a rolling basis.
    \10\ The filename will contain the trading date and the
reporting SRO (EEEEshvolYYYYMMDD.txt where EEEE represents the
reporting SRO and YYYYMMDD represents the date).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                   Field name                        Field description
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date............................................  Trade date (YYYYMMDD).
Symbol..........................................  Trading symbol.
Short Volume....................................  Aggregate reported
                                                   share volume of
                                                   executed short sale
                                                   trades during regular
                                                   trading hours.
Total Volume....................................  Aggregate reported
                                                   share volume of all
                                                   executed trades
                                                   during regular
                                                   trading hours.
Market..........................................  CTA market identifier.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA will not incorporate trading information into the daily short
sale volume file that has not been executed and reported within the
trading day.\11\ Further, FINRA will not retroactively apply ``as of''
and ``reversal'' transactions to update the daily statistics.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ While members generally are required to report trades in
equity securities to FINRA within 90 seconds, a firm could
improperly delay reporting of short sales until well after the
close, which would result in the under-reporting of over-the-counter
short sale volume. Delaying the reporting of trades for such a
purpose would be considered a violation of the applicable trade
reporting rules and Rule 2010 (Standards of Commercial Honor and
Principles of Trade).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Monthly Short Sale Transaction File
    For each trading month, FINRA will post on its Web site a monthly
short sale transaction file by no later than the last day of the
following calendar month that includes, among other things, trade
details including the transaction time, price and number of shares for
every short sale transaction in an NMS stock. The monthly short sale
transaction file request is similar to, but not the same as, the
instructions for the Regulation SHO Pilot data.\12\ FINRA began
publishing the monthly short sale transaction, with the initial file
for the month of August 2009 posted on September 30, 2009 (the last day
of the following calendar month).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 50104 (July 28,
2004), 69 FR 48032 (Aug. 6, 2004).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FINRA's monthly short sale transaction file includes all short
sales reported to a TRF or the ADF and reported by FINRA to a tape
plan.\13\ Unlike the daily short sale volume file, the monthly short
sale transaction file includes short sale transactions that are
reported both during regular trading hours as well as after-hours.
While FINRA is not including reversals in the monthly short sale
transaction file, the original reversed trade is included. FINRA is
also including in each monthly transaction file any ``as of'' trades
that were executed and reported within each given month.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ See supra note 8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Monthly Short Sale Transaction files contain the following
information: \14\

    \14\ The data files will include a ``link indicator'' field,
which would provide a market center defined character variable to
flag records that may have been difficult to match to tape data.
This indicator was intended to allow for the dissection of trades
that are bulk-reported to the tape; however, because FINRA does not
bulk report trades to the tape, this field is not applicable and,
therefore, will be left blank.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

--Market center: As reported on the tape.\15\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \15\ The ADF, NYSE TRF and NASDAQ TRF files are currently
separately designated. FINRA intends at a later date to consolidate
the TRF and ADF files in a user-friendly manner.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

--Ticker symbol: CT/CQ, TAQ, or symbols used for trading by the market
center.
--Report Date: Date that the trade was reported to the tape.
--Reported Trade Time: In military time, Eastern Time.
--Size of the Trade: Number of shares in mixed or round lots as
reported to the tape.
--Price of the Trade: Exactly as reported to the tape.

Other Issues

    Once the Daily Short Sale Volume File is made publicly available at
the end of each trading day, FINRA notes that users of such data should
not expect the daily and monthly data to reconcile because, among other
things, monthly transaction data will include reporting through the end
of FINRA transaction reporting hours that terminate as late as 8 p.m.,
while daily volume reports will only include volume reported during
regular trading hours.
    Information relating to market maker or supplemental liquidity
provider status is not currently included in the trade report
submission; thus, FINRA currently is unable to separately identify

the trades of equity market makers and supplemental liquidity providers
in the monthly short sale transaction file. Therefore, the ``short
type'' field will include a value of ``S'' in all cases.
    FINRA will retain on the FINRA Web site one year of historical
monthly short sale transaction data beginning with the data published
on September 30, 2009.
    The proposed rule change will become effective upon Commission
approval.
2. Statutory Basis
    FINRA believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with the
provisions of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\16\ which requires, among
other things, that FINRA rules must be designed to prevent fraudulent
and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the
public interest. FINRA believes that the publication of the requested
short sale data will result in increased market transparency, providing
additional market information to investors and other interested
parties.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \16\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    FINRA does not believe that the proposed rule change will result in
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

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

    Written comments were neither solicited nor received.

III. Commission's Findings and Order Granting Accelerated Approval of
Proposed Rule Change

    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\17\ the Commission may not
approve any proposed rule change prior to the 30th day after the date
of publication of the notice of filing thereof, unless the Commission
finds good cause for so doing and publishes its reasons for so finding.
FINRA also has requested that the Commission find good cause for
approving the proposed rule change prior to the 30th day after
publication in the Federal Register. For the Commission to approve a
proposed rule change proposed by a national securities association
(i.e., FINRA), the proposed rule change must be consistent with the
requirements of the Act, including Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act,\18\
and the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act
requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities
association be designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, and, in
general, to protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
    \18\ 15 U.S.C. 78o-3(b)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After careful consideration, the Commission finds that FINRA's
proposed rule change relating to the publication of certain daily and
monthly short sale data on the FINRA Web site is consistent with the
requirements of the Act,\19\ including Section 15A(b)(6) of the
Act.\20\ In particular, the Commission finds that FINRA's proposed rule
change is consistent with Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act \21\ in that it
is designed to protect investors and the public interest. The
Commission notes that the proposed rule change will facilitate public
access to short sale data, increase market transparency and thereby
promote capital formation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has

Transportation Conformity Rule: MOVES Regional Grace Period
Extension

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Withdrawal of direct final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Because EPA received adverse comments, we are withdrawing the
direct final rule extending the MOVES Regional Grace Period, published
on October 13, 2011. The direct final rule would have extended the
grace period to March 2013, before the Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator
model (currently MOVES2010a) is required for regional emissions
analyses for transportation conformity determinations (``regional
conformity analyses'').

DATES: Effective December 5, 2011, EPA withdraws the direct final rule
published at 76 FR 63554, on October 13, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Meg Patulski, State Measures and
Transportation Planning Center, Environmental Protection Agency, 2000

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Because EPA received adverse comments, we
are withdrawing the direct final rule for extending the MOVES regional
conformity grace period, published on October 13, 2011 (76 FR 63554).
We stated in that direct final rule that if we received adverse
comments, the direct final rule would not take effect and we would
publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register. We subsequently
received adverse comments on that direct final rule. We will address
those comments in a subsequent final action, which will be based on the
parallel proposed rule also published on October 13, 2011 (76 FR
63575). As stated in the direct final rule and the parallel proposed
rule, we will not institute a second comment period on this action.

    Dated: November 29, 2011.
Gina McCarthy,
Assistant Administrator for the Office of Air and Radiation.

    Accordingly, the amendments to the rule published on October 13,
2011 (76 FR 63554) are withdrawn as of December 5, 2011.

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2009-0747; Directorate Identifier 2009-NE-28-AD;

Airworthiness Directives; Thielert Aircraft Engines GmbH (TAE)
Model TAE 125-01 Reciprocating Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), 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) issued 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:

    An in-flight engine shutdown incident was reported on an
aircraft equipped with a TAE 125-01 engine. This was found to be
mainly the result of a blockage of the scavenge oil gear pump due to
a broken axial bearing of the turbocharger. The broken parts were
sucked into the oil pump and caused seizure. With the pump
inoperative, the separator overfilled, causing the engine oil to
escape via the breather vent line. This caused a loss of oil that
resulted in the engine overheating and subsequent shutdown.

    We are issuing this AD to prevent engine in-flight shutdown,
possibly resulting in reduced control of the aircraft.

DATES: This AD becomes effective March 30, 2010. The Director of the
Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD as of March 30, 2010.

ADDRESSES: The Docket Operations office is located at Docket Management
Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue,
SE., West Building Ground Floor, Room W12-140, Washington, DC 20590-
0001.

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 September 17, 2009
(74 FR 47759. That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    An in-flight engine shutdown incident was reported on an
aircraft equipped with a TAE 125-01 engine. This was found to be
mainly the result of a blockage of the scavenge oil gear pump due to
a broken axial bearing of the turbocharger. The broken parts were
sucked into the oil pump and caused seizure. With the pump
inoperative, the separator overfilled, causing the engine oil to
escape via the breather vent line. This caused a loss of oil that
resulted in the engine overheating and subsequent shutdown.

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, in general, agree with its
substance. But we have found it necessary to change the compliance from
``within the next 50 flight hours after the effective date of this
directive, but not later than 31 October 2007, whichever occurs
first'', to ``within the next 50 flight hours after the effective date
of this AD.''

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this AD will
affect about 250 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it
will take about one work-hour per product to comply with this AD. The
average labor rate is $80 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about
$80 per product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD
on U.S. operators to be $40,000.

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 this AD, the regulatory evaluation,
any comments received, and other information. The street address for
the Docket Operations office (telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>) is provided in
the ADDRESSES section. Comments will be available in the AD docket
shortly after receipt.

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 all
Dassault Aviation Model FAN JET FALCON airplanes; Model FAN JET FALCON
SERIES C, D, E, F, and G airplanes; Model MYSTERE-FALCON 200 airplanes;
Model MYSTERE-FALCON 20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes; and
MYSTERE-FALCON 50 airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by a report
that, during approach for landing, the main entry door detached from an
airplane. This proposed AD would require a one-time functional test or
check of the main entry door closure and warning system, and applicable
door closing inspections, adjustments, and operational tests, and
corrective actions if necessary. We are proposing this AD to detect and
correct defective crew/passenger doors. Such a condition could result
in the in-flight opening or detachment of the crew/passenger door,
which could result in loss of control of the airplane and injury to
persons on the ground.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 15, 2016.

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2015-0007, dated January 15, 2015 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Dassault Aviation
Model FAN JET FALCON airplanes; Model FAN JET FALCON SERIES C, D, E, F,
and G airplanes; Model MYSTERE-FALCON 200 airplanes; Model MYSTERE-
FALCON 20-C5, 20-D5, 20-E5, and 20-F5 airplanes; and MYSTERE-FALCON 50
airplanes. The MCAI states:

    During approach for landing, a Myst[egrave]re-Falcon 20-X5 lost
the main entrance door [MED] at an altitude of 7,000 feet. The
flight crew maintained control of the aeroplane to land
uneventfully. The results of the preliminary technical
investigations concluded that the cause of this event could be
either a broken cable, or an unlocked safety catch, associated with
one or two deficient micro switches.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to in-
flight opening and/or detachment of the Crew/Passenger door,
possibly resulting in loss of control of the aeroplane, and/or
injury to persons on the ground.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, Dassault Aviation
issued Service Bulletins (SB) F20-789, F200-133 and MF50-531,
providing instructions for inspection/adjustment, as well as an
operational test of the Crew/Passenger door closure.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires a one-
time accomplishment of a functional test/check of the MED closure/
warning system. It also requires [a general visual] inspection and
operational test of the Crew/Passenger door [including the control
and latching mechanisms] and, depending on findings, applicable
corrective actions.

    Corrective actions include adjusting the telescopic rod bolts on
the door until the clearance between the lower part of the door and the
fuselage is within the specified tolerances. The corrective actions for
the control and latching mechanisms include adjusting components and
replacing damaged components (including pull latches, microswitches,
pulleys, and cables). Signs of damage include cracks, corrosion, wear,
and distortion.You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the
Internet at http://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating
Docket No. FAA-2016-7420.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    We received the following service information.
     Dassault Service Bulletin F20-789, also referred to as
789, dated December 9, 2014.
     Dassault Service Bulletin F50-531, also referred to as
531, dated December 9, 2014.
     Dassault Service Bulletin F200-133, also referred to as
133, dated December 9, 2014.
    The service information describes procedures for inspections,
adjustments, and operational tests of certain doors and corrective
actions. 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 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 these
same type designs.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 392 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    We also estimate that it would take about 4 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts would cost about $0 per
product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $133,280, or $340 per product.
    We have received no definitive data that would enable us 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.
    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.
