SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984
(Pub. L. 98-417) and the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term
Restoration Act (Pub. L. 100-670) generally provide that a patent may
be extended for a period of up to 5 years so long as the patented item
(human drug product, animal drug product, medical device, food
additive, or color additive) was subject to regulatory review by FDA
before the item was marketed. Under these acts, a product's regulatory
review period forms the basis for determining the amount of extension
an applicant may receive.
    A regulatory review period consists of two periods of time: A
testing phase and an approval phase. For medical devices, the testing
phase begins with a clinical investigation of the device and runs until
the approval phase begins. The approval phase starts with the initial
submission of an application to market the device and continues until
permission to market the device is granted. Although only a portion of
a regulatory review period may count toward the actual amount of
extension that the Director of USPTO may award (half the testing phase
must be subtracted as well as any time that may have occurred before
the patent was issued), FDA's determination of the length of a
regulatory review period for a medical device will include all of the
testing phase and approval phase as specified in 35 U.S.C.
156(g)(3)(B).
    FDA has approved for marketing the medical device HYMOVIS. HYMOVIS
is indicated for the treatment of pain in osteoarthritis of the knee in
patients who have failed to respond adequately to conservative non-
pharmacologic therapy and to simple analgesics. Subsequent to this
approval, the USPTO received a patent term restoration application for
HYMOVIS (U.S. Patent No. 7,863,256) from Fidia Farmaceutici S.p.A., and
the USPTO requested FDA's assistance in determining this patent's
eligibility for patent term restoration. In a letter dated September
26, 2016, FDA advised the USPTO that this medical device had undergone
a regulatory review period and that the approval of HYMOVIS represented
the first permitted commercial marketing or use of the product.
Thereafter, the USPTO requested that FDA determine the product's
regulatory review period.

II. Determination of Regulatory Review Period

    FDA has determined that the applicable regulatory review period for
HYMOVIS is 1,845 days. Of this time, 1,665 days occurred during the
testing phase of the regulatory review period, while 180 days occurred
during the approval phase. These periods of time were derived from the
following dates:
    1. The date an exemption under section 520(g) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360j(g)) involving this
device became effective: August 11, 2010. The applicant claims that the
investigational device exemption (IDE) required under section 520(g) of
the FD&C Act for human tests to begin became effective on January 7,
2011. However, FDA records indicate that the IDE was determined
substantially complete for clinical studies to have begun on August 11,
2010, which represents the IDE effective date.
    2. The date an application was initially submitted with respect to
the device under section 515 of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. 360e): March 2,
2015. FDA has verified the applicant's claim that the premarket
approval application (PMA) for HYMOVIS (PMA P150010) was initially
submitted March 2, 2015.
    3. The date the application was approved: August 28, 2015. FDA has
verified the applicant's claim that PMA P150010 was approved on August
28, 2015.
    This determination of the regulatory review period establishes the
maximum potential length of a patent extension. However, the USPTO
applies several statutory limitations in its calculations of the actual
period for patent extension. In its application for patent extension,
this applicant seeks 938 days of patent term extension.

III. Petitions

    Anyone with knowledge that any of the dates as published are
incorrect may submit either electronic or written comments and, under
21 CFR 60.24, ask for a redetermination (see DATES). Furthermore, as
specified in Sec.  60.30 (21 CFR 60.30), any interested person may
petition FDA for a determination regarding whether the applicant for
extension acted with due diligence during the regulatory review period.
To meet its burden, the petition must comply with all the requirements
of Sec.  60.30, including but not limited to: Must be timely (see
DATES), Must be filed in accordance with Sec.  10.20, must contain
sufficient facts to merit an FDA investigation, and must certify that a
true and complete copy of the petition has been served upon the patent
applicant. (See H. Rept. 857, part 1, 98th Cong., 2d sess., pp. 41-42,
1984.) Petitions should be in the format specified in 21 CFR 10.30.
    Submit petitions electronically to https://www.regulations.gov at
Docket No. FDA-2013-S-0610. Submit written petitions (two copies are
required) to the Dockets Management Staff (HFA-305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, Rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852.

The SIP revision seeks to modify the State's monitoring, recordkeeping,
and reporting regulations by adding one definition, adding references
to approved testing methods, updating the reference format, and making
minor changes to general formatting and language use for clarity
purposes. EPA is approving these changes pursuant to the Clean Air Act
(CAA or Act).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    EPA is approving changes to the following SIP-approved regulations
under 15A North Carolina Administrative Code Subchapter 02D,\1\ Section
.0600, Monitoring: Recordkeeping: Reporting: \2\ Rule .0601, Purpose
and Scope; Rule .0602, Definitions; Rule .0604, Exceptions to
Monitoring and Reporting Requirements; Rule .0605, General
Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements; and Rule .0606, Sources
Covered by Appendix P of 40 CFR part 51,\3\ of the North Carolina SIP,
submitted on October 9, 2020.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In the table of North Carolina regulations federally
approved into the SIP at 40 CFR 52.1770(c), 15A NCAC 02D is referred
to as ``Subchapter 2D Air Pollution Control Requirements.''
    \2\ Section .0600 is titled ``Air Contaminants; Monitoring;
Reporting'' in the CFR table. This is being amended in this notice
to read ``Monitoring: Recordkeeping: Reporting''.
    \3\ The State submitted the SIP revisions following the
readoption of several air regulations, including .0601, .0602,
.0604, .0605, and .0606, pursuant to North Carolina's 10-year
regulatory readoption process at North Carolina General Statute
150B-21.3A.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. EPA's Analysis of North Carolina's Submittal

    The changes that are the subject of this rulemaking revise
monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting regulations under Subchapter
02D of the North Carolina SIP. Specifically, they revise the SIP by
changing a heading, adding one definition, adding references to
approved testing methods, updating the reference format, and making
minor changes to general formatting and language use for clarity
purposes. EPA finds that the changes do not interfere with any
applicable requirement concerning attainment and reasonable further
progress, or any other applicable CAA requirement.
    In a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published on May 20, 2021
(86 FR 27349), EPA proposed to approve North Carolina's SIP submission
provided on October 9, 2020. The May 20, 2021, NPRM provides additional
detail regarding the background and rationale for EPA's action.
Comments on the May 20, 2021, NPRM were due on or before June 21, 2021.
EPA received no comments on the May 20, 2021 NPRM.

III. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, EPA is finalizing regulatory text that includes
incorporation by reference. In accordance with requirements of 1 CFR
51.5, EPA is finalizing the incorporation by reference of the following
rules in 15A NCAC Subchapter 02D, Section .0600, Monitoring:
Recordkeeping: Reporting, with a state-effective date of November 1,
2019: Rule .0601, Purpose and Scope; Rule .0602, Definitions; Rule
.0604, Exceptions to Monitoring and Reporting Requirements; Rule .0605,
General Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements; and Rule .0606,
Sources Covered by Appendix P of 40 CFR part 51. The changes revise a
heading, add one definition, add references to approved testing
methods, update the reference format, and make minor changes to general
formatting and language to provide clarity to the monitoring,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements. EPA has made, and will
continue to make, these materials generally available through
www.regulations.gov and at the EPA Region 4 office (please contact the
person identified in the For Further Information Contact section of
this preamble for more information). Therefore, these materials have
been approved by EPA for inclusion in the

SIP, have been incorporated by reference by EPA into that plan, are
fully federally enforceable under sections 110 and 113 of the CAA as of
the effective date of the final rulemaking of EPA's approval, and will
be incorporated by reference in the next update to the SIP
compilation.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See 62 FR 27968 (May 22, 1997).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Final Action

    EPA is approving North Carolina's October 9, 2020, SIP revisions,
which contain changes to the following regulations under 15A NCAC
Subchapter 02D: Section .0600, Monitoring: Recordkeeping: Reporting:
Rule .0601, Purpose and Scope; Rule .0602, Definitions; Rule .0604,
Exceptions to Monitoring and Reporting Requirements; Rule .0605,
General Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements; and Rule .0606,
Sources Covered by Appendix P of 40 CFR Part 51. The changes are
consistent with the CAA.

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the CAA, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. See 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. This action merely
approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and does not impose
additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law. For that
reason, this action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the CAA; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    The SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian reservation land or
in any other area where EPA or an Indian tribe has demonstrated that a
tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian country, the rule does
not have tribal implications as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000), nor will it impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal

Foreign Carrier Exemption Conditions

In the conduct of the operations authorized, the foreign carrier
applicant(s) shall:

(1)  Not conduct any operations unless it holds a currently effective
authorization from its homeland for such operations, and it has filed a
copy of such authorization with the Department;

(2)  Comply with all applicable requirements of the Federal Aviation
Administration, including, but not limited to, 14 CFR Parts 129, 91, and
36, and with all applicable U.S. Government requirements concerning
security, including, but not limited to, 49 CFR Part 1546 or 1550, as
applicable.  To assure compliance with all applicable U.S. Government
requirements concerning security, the holder shall, before commencing
any new service (including charter flights) from a foreign airport that
would be the holder’s last point of departure for the United States,
contact its International Principal Security Inspector (IPSI) to advise
the IPSI of its plans and to find out whether the Transportation
Security Administration has determined that security is adequate to
allow such airport(s) to be served;

(3)  Comply with the requirements for minimum insurance coverage
contained in 14 CFR Part 205, and, prior to the commencement of any
operations under this authority, file evidence of such coverage, in the
form of a completed OST Form 6411, with the Federal Aviation
Administration’s Program Management Branch (AFS-260), Flight Standards
Service (any changes to, or termination of, insurance also shall be
filed with that office);

(4)  Not operate aircraft under this authority unless it complies with
operational safety requirements at least equivalent to Annex 6 of the
Chicago Convention;

(5)  Conform to the airworthiness and airman competency requirements of
its Government for international air services;

(6)  Except as specifically exempted or otherwise provided for in a
Department Order, comply with the requirements of 14 CFR Part 203,
concerning waiver of Warsaw Convention liability limits and defenses;

(7)  Agree that operations under this authority constitute a waiver of
sovereign immunity, for the purposes of 28 U.S.C. 1605(a), but only with
respect to those actions or proceedings instituted against it in any
court or other tribunal in the United States that are: (a)  based on its
operations in international air transportation that, according to the
contract of carriage, include a point in the United States as a point of
origin, point of destination, or agreed stopping place, or for which the
contract of carriage was purchased in the United States; or (b)  based
on a claim under any international agreement or treaty cognizable in any
court or other tribunal of the United States.  In this condition, the
term "international air transportation" means "international
transportation" as defined by the Warsaw Convention, except that all
States shall be considered to be High Contracting Parties for the
purpose of this definition;

(8)  Except as specifically authorized by the Department, originate or
terminate all flights to/from the United States in its homeland;

(9)  Comply with the requirements of 14 CFR Part 217, concerning the
reporting of scheduled, nonscheduled, and charter data;

(10) If charter operations are authorized, except as otherwise provided
in the applicable aviation agreement, comply with the Department's rules
governing charters (including 14 CFR Parts 212 and 380); and

(11) Comply with such other reasonable terms, conditions, and
limitations required by the public interest as may be prescribed by the
Department, with all applicable orders or regulations of other U.S.
agencies and courts, and with all applicable laws of the United States.

This authority shall not be effective during any period when the holder
is not in compliance with the conditions imposed above.  Moreover, this
authority cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without explicit
Department approval under Title 49 of the U.S. Code.

 We note that Israir sought authority for a period of two years.
However, as is our usual practice in conferring exemption authority in
the circumstances presented, we are limiting the term of authority to
one year.  Israir may, of course seek renewal of this authority in
accordance with the Department’s regulations.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-64199; File No. SR-CBOE-2011-035]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Chicago Board Options Exchange,
Incorporated; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a
Proposed Rule Change To Amend CBSX Maker and Taker Transaction Fees and
Rebates for Transactions in Securities Priced $1 or Greater

April 6, 2011.
    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 March 31, 2011, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, Incorporated
(``Exchange'' or ``CBOE'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in
Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the
Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments
on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

    The Exchange proposes to amend CBOE Stock Exchange (``CBSX'')
transaction fees. The text of the proposed rule change is available on
the Exchange's Web site (http://www.cboe.org/legal), at the Exchange's
Office of the Secretary, and at the Commission.

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

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
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 those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

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

1. Purpose
    This filing proposes to make changes to the CBSX Fees Schedule. On
March 1, 2011, CBOE modified the CBSX Maker and Taker transaction fees
and rebates for transactions in securities priced $1 or greater.\3\
Following that change, transactions in securities priced $1 or greater
in a select group of stocks (BAC, BIL, BGZ, C, CIM, DXD, FAZ, IAU,
LVLT, NBG, PVI, QID, SDS, SIRI, SKF, SNV, UDN, UNG, UUP, XLF) became
subject to Maker fees of $0.0018 per share and Taker rebates of $0.0014
per share. Transactions in securities priced $1 or greater in another
select group of stocks (AA, AMAT, AMD, ATML, BRCD, BSX, CMCSA, COCO,
CSCO, CX, DELL, DIA, DOW, DRYS, DUK, EBAY, EMC, EWJ, EWT, FAS, FAX, F,
FITB, FLEX, GBG, GDX, GE, GLD, GLW, HBAN, HPQ, IDIX, INTC, IWM, IYR,
JPM, KEY, LVS, MDT, MFE, MGM, MO, MRVL, MSFT, MU, NLY, NOK, NVDA, NWSA,
ONNN, ORCL, PBR, PFE, PSQ, QCOM, Q, QLD, QQQQ, RF, RFMD, SBUX, S, SH,
SLV, SMH, SNDK, SPLS, SPXU, SPY, SSO, SYMC, TBT, T, TLT, TNA,TSM, TWM,
TXN, TZA, UCO, USO, UWM, UYG, VALE, VWO, VXX, VZ, WFC, XHB, XLB, XLE,
XLI, XLK, XLP, XLU, XLV, XLY, XRT, XRX, YHOO) became subject to Maker
fees of $0.0009 per share and Taker rebates of $0.0006 per share.
Transactions in securities priced $1 or greater for all other
securities became subject to a $0.0001 fee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 64027 (March 3,
2011), 76 FR 13011 (March 9, 2011) (SR-CBOE-2011-020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange now proposes to change the specific securities in the
groups. Under the proposed rule change, transactions in the following
securities priced $1 or greater would be subject to Maker fees of
$0.0018 per share and Taker rebates of $0.0014 per share: ALU, BAC,
BIL, C, CIM, IAU, LVLT, PVI, SIRI, SNV, UDN, UNG, UUP. Transactions in
the following securities priced $1 or greater would be subject to Maker
fees of $0.0009 per share and Taker rebates of $0.0006 per share: AA,
AMD, BGZ, BRCD, BSX, CSCO, CX, DGZ, DIA, DRYS, DUK, DXD, DZZ, EWJ, FAX,
F, GBG, GLD, INTC, IWM, KEY, MSFT, NBG, NOK, PFE, Q, QQQ, RF, RFMD,
SDS, S, SH, SLV, SPF, SPXU, SPY, SSO, TBT, TLT, TWM, TZA, UCO, USO,
UWM, VXX, XLI, XLP. Transactions in securities priced $1 or greater for
all other securities will remain subject to a $0.0001 fee. The Exchange
is modifying the securities in the groups and customizing transaction
fees by security due to the different liquidity attributes of the
different securities and CBSX's experience in trades involving those
securities.
    The Exchange also proposes to re-add a reference to footnote 4,
which defines a ``Qualified Contingent Trade''. This reference was
inadvertently removed in re-organizing the CBSX Fees Schedule in the
previous filing.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See footnote 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Statutory Basis
    The proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act''),\5\ in general, and furthers
the objectives of Section 6(b)(4) \6\ of the Act in particular, in that
it is designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable
dues, fees, and other charges among CBOE Trading Permit Holders and
other persons using Exchange facilities. The Exchange is modifying the
securities in the groups and customizing transaction fees by security
due to the different liquidity attributes of the different securities
and CBSX's experience in trades involving those securities.

    \6\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

    CBOE does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any
burden on competition 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

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

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

    The proposed rule change is designated by the Exchange as
establishing or changing a due, fee, or other charge, thereby
qualifying for effectiveness on filing pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)
of the Act \7\ and

subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b-4 \8\ thereunder. At any time within 60
days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission
summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the
Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public
interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.

Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2006-25173; Directorate Identifier 2006-NE-24-AD;
Amendment 39-15453; AD 2008-08-01]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; McCauley Propeller Systems Propeller
Models B5JFR36C1101/114GCA-0, C5JFR36C1102/L114GCA-0, B5JFR36C1103/
114HCA-0, and C5JFR36C1104/L114HCA-0

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

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding three existing airworthiness directives
(ADs) for McCauley Propeller Systems propeller models B5JFR36C1101/
114GCA-0, C5JFR36C1102/L114GCA-0, B5JFR36C1103/114HCA-0, and
C5JFR36C1104/L114HCA-0. Those ADs currently require fluorescent
penetrant inspections (FPI) and eddy current inspections (ECI) of
propeller blades for cracks, and if any crack indications are found,
removing the blade from service. This AD requires the same initial
inspections, but extends the compliance times and intervals, adds
repetitive inspections, and mandates a life limit for the blades. This
AD results from our determination that we must require repetitive
inspections for cracks, and from reports of blunt leading edges of the
propeller blades due to erosion. We are issuing this AD to detect
cracks in the propeller blade that could cause failure and separation
of the propeller blade and loss of control of the airplane, and to
detect blunt leading edges on the propeller blades, which could cause
airplane single engine climb performance degradation and could result
in an increased risk of collision with terrain.

DATES: This AD becomes effective May 19, 2008. The Director of the
Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in the regulations as of May 19, 2008.

ADDRESSES: You can get the service information identified in this AD
from McCauley Propeller Systems, P.O. Box 7704, Wichita, KS 67277-7704,

    The Docket Operations office is located at Docket Management
Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue,

<EMAIL_ADDRESS>telephone:<PHONE_NUMBER>; fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39 by
superseding AD 2003-15-01, Amendment 39-13243 (68 FR 42244, July 17,
2003); AD 2003-17-10, Amendment 39-13285 (68 FR 50462, August 21,
2003); and AD 2006-15-13, Amendment 39-14693 (71 FR 42258, July 26,
2006), with a proposed AD. The proposed AD applies to McCauley
Propeller Systems propeller models B5JFR36C1101/114GCA-0, C5JFR36C1102/
L114GCA-0, B5JFR36C1103/114HCA-0, and C5JFR36C1104/L114HCA-0. We
published the proposed AD in the Federal Register on November 1, 2007
(72 FR 61824). That action proposed to require the same initial
inspections as the three ADs being superseded, but to extend the
compliance times and intervals, to add repetitive inspections, and to
mandate a life limit for the blades.

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.

Comments

    We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We have considered the one comment received.
The commenter supports the proposal. We also found we needed to clarify
that blades that had crack indications were no longer eligible for
installation on any other airframe or in any other configuration. We
clarified the AD on the point.

Conclusion

    We have carefully reviewed the available data, including the
comments received, and determined that air safety and the public
interest require adopting the AD as proposed.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 22 propeller assemblies
installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate that it will take
about 47 work-hours per propeller to perform the required actions, and
that the average labor rate is $80 per work-hour. Required parts will
cost about $260 per propeller. Based on these figures, we estimate the
total cost of the AD to U.S. operators to be $88,440.

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 this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866;
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    (3) 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 summary of the costs to comply with this AD and
placed it in

the AD Docket. You may get a copy of this summary at the address listed
under ADDRESSES.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

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

Adoption of the Amendment

0
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator,
the Federal Aviation Administration 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 removing Amendment 39-13243 (68 FR
42244, July 17, 2003), Amendment 39-13285 (68 FR 50462, August 21,
2003), and Amendment 39-14693 (71 FR 42258, July 26, 2006), and by
adding a new airworthiness directive, Amendment 39-15453, to read as
follows:

2008-08-01 McCauley Propeller Systems: Amendment 39-15453. Docket
No. FAA-2006-25173; Directorate Identifier 2006-NE-24-AD.

Effective Date

    (a) This airworthiness directive (AD) becomes effective May 19,
2008.

Affected ADs

    (b) This AD supersedes AD 2003-15-01, Amendment 39-13243; AD
2003-17-10, Amendment 39-13285; and AD 2006-15-13, Amendment 39-
14693.

Applicability

    (c) This AD applies to McCauley Propeller Systems propeller
models B5JFR36C1101/114GCA-0, C5JFR36C1102/L114GCA-0, B5JFR36C1103/
114HCA-0, and C5JFR36C1104/L114HCA-0. These propellers are installed
on BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Jetstream Model 4100 and 4101
series airplanes (Jetstream 41).

Unsafe Condition

    (d) This AD results from our determination that we must require
repetitive inspections for cracks, and from reports of blunt leading
edges of the propeller blades due to erosion. We are issuing this AD
to detect cracks in the propeller blade that could cause failure and
separation of the propeller blade and loss of control of the
airplane, and to detect blunt leading edges on the propeller blades,
which could cause airplane single engine climb performance
degradation and could result in an increased risk of collision with
terrain.

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.

Life Limit

    (f) Remove all 114GCA-0, L114GCA-0, 114HCA-0, and L114HCA-0
propeller blades upon reaching 10,000 operating hours time-since-
new.

Initial Propeller Blade Inspection

    (g) Perform an initial fluorescent penetrant inspection and eddy
current inspection of propeller blades. Use the Equipment Required
and Accomplishment Instructions of McCauley Propellers Alert Service
Bulletin ASB255, dated January 8, 2007, and the following compliance
schedule:

                      Table 1.--Compliance Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                            Then inspect the propeller
        If the propeller blade:                       blade:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Has more than 2,400 operating hours  Within 100 operating hours time-
 time-since-new (TSN), time-since-last    in-service (TIS) after the
 inspection (TSLI), or time-since-        effective date of this AD.
 overhaul (TSO).
(2) Has 2,400 or fewer operating hours   Upon reaching 2,500 operating
 TSN, TSLI, or TSO.                       hours TSN, TSLI, or TSO.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Propeller Blades Found Cracked

    (h) Remove from service propeller blades found with any crack
indications. Blades found with crack indications are no longer
eligible for installation in any configuration. Do not install them
in any configuration on any airframe.

Repetitive Propeller Blade Inspection

    (i) Thereafter, inspect the propeller blades within 2,500
operating hours TSLI or TSO. Use the Equipment Required and
Accomplishment Instructions of McCauley Propellers Alert Service
Bulletin ASB255, dated January 8, 2007.

Inspection for Blunt Erosion on the Leading Edge of the Propeller Blade

    (j) Every time the propeller is removed for the inspection for
cracks, inspect the blade for erosion and, if necessary, repair the
erosion. The McCauley Propeller Systems Blade Overhaul Manual No.,
BOM 100, contains information on inspecting and repairing erosion on
the propeller blade.
