Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 76 / Wednesday, April 20, 2011 / Proposed Rules 22059 

for reporting production, planted and 

harvested acreage, and other key 

information needed to participate in 

USDA programs. These process changes 

may allow for program data that is 

common across agencies to be collected 

once and utilized or redistributed to 

agency programs in which the producer 

chooses to participate. It also may 

provide a single Web site for producers 

to report commodity information if they 

so choose, or access their previously 

reported information. 

C. Natural Resources Conservation 

Service 

The Natural Resources Conservation 

Service (NRCS) is considering a review 

of its regulations consistent with its 

other ongoing streamlining efforts to 

improve the processes that deliver 

technical and financial assistance to 

program users. To inform this process, 

NRCS welcomes comments on 

approaches that will allow NRCS to 

enhance its delivery of technical 

assistance and streamline the 

application process and participation in 

financial assistance programs. NRCS is 

specifically interested in comments on 

such approaches as allowing customers 

to apply for programs or services online 

24/7, reducing the number of office 

visits required through the use of mobile 

technologies, accelerating payments to 

clients after a practice is applied, and 

simplifying conservation plan 

documents. 

D. Food Safety and Inspection Service 

The Food Safety and Inspection 

Service (FSIS) is considering a review of 

its regulations to identify potential 

improvements in information collection 

procedures to increase the quality of 

data available to inform and support 

regulatory decision making. For 

example, FSIS is considering collecting 

additional information about 

establishment verification testing, such 

as testing for pathogens. FSIS is also 

considering potential means to decrease 

the recordkeeping burden on industry, 

by possibly reducing label submission 

requirements. In addition, FSIS is also 

considering how its new Public Health 

Information System could potentially be 

used to share data and reduce data 

reporting requirements. To aid this 

effort, FSIS invites the public to 

comment on how best to improve data 

quality and minimize the recordkeeping 

burden on industry. 

III. Questions for Commenters 

In providing comments, the public is 

encouraged to respond to the questions 

as they pertain to the four areas 

identified above: 

(1) Are there regulations or reporting 

requirements that have become outdated 

and, if so, how can they be modernized 

to accomplish their regulatory objectives 

better? 

(2) Do agencies currently collect 

information that they do not need or use 

effectively to achieve regulatory 

objectives? 

(3) Is there information that agencies 

should begin collecting to achieve 

regulatory objectives? 

(4) Are there regulations, reporting 

requirements, or regulatory submission 

or application processes that are 

unnecessarily complicated, or that 

could be streamlined to achieve 

regulatory objectives in ways that are 

more efficient? 

(5) Are there regulations, submission 

and application processes, or reporting 

requirements that have been overtaken 

by technological developments? Can 

new technologies be used to modify, 

streamline, or do away with existing 

regulatory or reporting requirements? 

This is a non-exhaustive list that is 

meant to assist in the formulation of 

comments and is not intended to limit 

the issues that commenters may choose 

to address. Although we are 

contemplating on focusing our initial 

review on the four areas identified 

above, we welcome comments from the 

public on any of USDA’s regulations 

and ways to improve them to help 

USDA agencies advance the mission of 

the Department consistent with the 

Executive Order. We encourage the 

public to comment on those rules that 

have been in effect for a sufficient 

amount of time to warrant meaningful 

evaluation. USDA notes that this RFI is 

issued solely for information and 

program-planning purposes. While 

responses to this RFI do not bind USDA 

to any further actions related to the 

response, all submissions will be made 

publicly available on http:// 

www.regulations.gov.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing 

Company Model 757 Airplanes, and 

Model 767–200, 767–300, and 767–300F 

Series Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede an 

existing airworthiness directive (AD) 

that applies to the products listed above. 

The existing AD currently requires 

revising the Limitations section of the 

airplane flight manual (AFM) to advise 

the flight crew of procedures to follow 

to ensure that a fuel filter impending 

bypass condition due to gross fuel 

contamination is detected in a timely 

manner. Since we issued that AD, a new 

design change has been developed that 

will correct an error in the operating 

program software (OPS) of the engine 

indication and crew alerting system 

(EICAS). This proposed AD would 

require installing new OPS (Version 7) 

of the EICAS in the EICAS computers. 

This proposed AD would also require 

various concurrent actions, depending 

on the airplane configuration, including 

installing a certain EICAS OPS version, 

making wiring changes, replacing the 

audio accessory unit, replacing certain 

handsets and EICAS computers, 

changing EICAS computer connector 

keying, and loading Operational 

Program Configuration (OPC) software. 

This proposed AD also retains the 

existing AD provision that relieves 

certain airplanes (those equipped with 

certain EICAS OPS versions) from the 

proposed requirements. 

Accomplishment of the new proposed 

actions would terminate the 

requirements of the existing AD. We are 

proposing this AD to prevent 

malfunction and thrust loss on both 

engines, which could result in a forced 

off-airport landing. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this proposed AD by June 6, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by

Discussion 

On April 14, 2008, we issued AD 

2008–09–07, Amendment 39–15488 (73 

FR 21811, April 23, 2008), for all Boeing 

Model 757 airplanes and Model 767– 

200, 767–300, and 767–300F series 

airplanes. That AD requires revising the 

Limitations section of the airplane flight 

manual (AFM) to advise the flight crew 

of procedures to follow to ensure that a 

fuel filter impending bypass condition 

due to gross fuel contamination is 

detected in a timely manner. That AD 

was prompted by an error in Version 6 

of the operating program software (OPS) 

of the engine indication and crew 

alerting system (EICAS). The error 

prevents the display of an advisory 

message to the flight crew of a left 

engine fuel filter contamination and 

imminent bypass condition, which may 

indicate an imminent multiple engine 

thrust loss or engine malfunction event 

due to fuel contamination. We issued 

that AD to prevent malfunction and 

thrust loss on both engines, which could 

result in a forced off-airport landing. 

Actions Since Existing AD Was Issued 

AD 2008–09–07 requires interim crew 

actions, via AFM limitations, to mitigate 

the unsafe condition introduced by 

Version 6 of the OPS. Since we issued 

that AD, Boeing has developed OPS 

Version 7, which corrects an error in the 

OPS of the EICAS and will allow 

removal of the required AFM 

limitations. 

Relevant Service Information 

We have reviewed Boeing Special 

Attention Service Bulletins 757–31– 

0192 (for Model 757 airplanes) and 767– 

31–0267 (for Model 767–200, –300, 

–300F series airplanes), both dated 

September 11, 2009. The service 

bulletins describe procedures for 

installing new EICAS OPS in the left 

and right EICAS computers. 

Service Bulletin 757–31–0192 

specifies the concurrent 

accomplishment of the actions specified 

in Boeing Service Bulletins 757–31–

FAA’s Determination 

We are proposing this AD because we 

evaluated all the relevant information 

and determined the unsafe condition 

described previously is likely to exist or 

develop in other products of these same 

type designs. 

Proposed AD Requirements 

This proposed AD would continue to 

require the AFM limitations specified in 

AD 2008–09–07. This proposed AD 

would also require the actions specified 

in the service information described 

previously, which would terminate the 

AFM limitations. This proposed AD also 

includes a provision that provides relief 

from the proposed requirements for 

airplanes with EICAS OPS versions 

other than Version 6. 

Change to Existing AD 

This proposed AD would retain the 

requirements of AD 2008–09–07. Since 

that AD was issued, the AD format has 

been revised, and certain paragraphs 

have been rearranged. As a result, the 

corresponding paragraph identifiers 

have changed in this proposed AD, as 

listed in the following table:

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 

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 that the 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. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

The Proposed Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 

39 as follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

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

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by 

removing airworthiness directive (AD) 

2008–09–07, Amendment 39–15488 (73 

FR 21811, April 23, 2008), and adding 

the following new AD: 

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA– 

2011–0382; Directorate Identifier 2010– 

NM–063–AD. 

Comments Due Date 

(a) The FAA must receive comments on 

this AD action by May 5, 2011. 

Affected ADs 

(b) This AD supersedes AD 2008–09–07, 

Amendment 39–15488. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to all The Boeing 

Company 757–200, 757–200PF, 757–200CB, 

757–300, 767–200, 767–300, and 767–300F 

series airplanes; certificated in any category. 

Subject 

(d) Joint Aircraft System Component 

(JASC)/Air Transport Association (ATA) of 

America Code 31, Instruments. 

Unsafe Condition 

(e) This AD was prompted by an error in 

the operating program software (OPS) of the 

engine indication and crew alerting system 

(EICAS). The error prevents the display of an 

advisory message to the flight crew of a left 

engine fuel filter contamination and 

imminent bypass condition, which may 

indicate an imminent multiple engine thrust 

loss or engine malfunction event due to fuel 

contamination. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent malfunction and thrust loss on both 

engines, which could result in a forced offairport landing. 

Compliance 

(f) Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

Restatement of Requirements of AD 2008– 

09–07, With No Changes 

Revision of Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) 

(g) Except as provided by paragraphs (h) 

and (i) of this AD: Within 30 days after May 

8, 2008 (the effective date of AD 2008–09– 

07), revise the Limitations section of the 

applicable AFM to include the following. 

This may be done by inserting a copy of this 

AD into the AFM. 

If the STATUS cue shows while on the 

ground after engine start or during flight, 

select the status page on the secondary 

EICAS display, and verify the ‘‘L ENG FUEL 

FILT’’ message is not shown. If the ‘‘L ENG 

FUEL FILT’’ message is not shown on the 

status page, the secondary engine parameters 

may be reselected on the secondary EICAS 

display, or the display may be blanked. If the 

‘‘L ENG FUEL FILT’’ message is shown on the 

status display, accomplish the ENGINE FUEL 

FILTER non-normal checklist as published in 

the Boeing Quick Reference Handbook. If on 

the ground, check the Dispatch Deviations 

Guide (DDG), or operator equivalent. 

In the event that the status level ‘‘L ENG 

FUEL FILT’’ and advisory level ‘‘R ENG FUEL 

FILT’’ messages are simultaneously shown, 

an impending fuel filter bypass condition 

exists on both engines. With both messages 

shown, airplane fuel system contamination 

may be present and may result in erratic 

engine operation or flameout. 

Further flight crew action in response to 

either or both the ‘‘L ENG FUEL FILT’’ statuslevel message and the ‘‘R ENG FUEL FILT’’ 

advisory level messages being shown are not 

established by Boeing or the FAA. Any 

further flight crew action should be 

determined by individual operator policy. 

Boeing policy on flight crew use of statuslevel messages has not changed. After engine 

start, any condition having an adverse effect 

on safe continuation of the flight appears as 

an EICAS alert message (Warning, Caution, or 

Advisory). If other status-level messages are 

shown as a consequence of complying with 

these temporary operating instructions, the 

flight crew should respond in accordance 

with the appropriate operator policy. 

Dispatch of the airplane with an 

inoperative EICAS display unit is prohibited. 

Exception to AFM Limitations Requirement 

(h) If all affected airplanes in an operator’s 

fleet have been verified by the operator to 

have EICAS computer part number 

S242N701–1001 and only EICAS OPS 

versions other than Version 6 software that 

are FAA approved for that airplane, then 

accomplishment of the actions specified in 

paragraph (g) of this AD is not required.
