Vidalia Onions Grown in Georgia; 

Continuance Referendum 

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, 

USDA. 

ACTION: Referendum order. 

SUMMARY: This document directs that a 

referendum be conducted among 

eligible producers of Vidalia onions 

grown in Georgia to determine whether 

they favor continuance of the marketing 

order that regulates the handling of 

Vidalia onions produced in the 

production area. 

DATES: The referendum will be 

conducted from September 9 through 

September 27, 2013. To vote in this 

referendum, producers must have 

produced Vidalia onions within the 

designated production area in Georgia 

during the period of January 1 through 

December 31, 2012. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the marketing 

order may be obtained from the 

referendum agents at 799 Overlook 

Drive, Winter Haven, FL 33884, or the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to Marketing Agreement and Order No. 

955, as amended (7 CFR Part 955), 

hereinafter referred to as the ‘‘order,’’ 

and the applicable provisions of the 

Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act 

of 1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601–674), 

hereinafter referred to as the ‘‘Act,’’ it is 

hereby directed that a referendum be 

conducted to ascertain whether 

continuance of the order is favored by 

the producers. The referendum shall be 

conducted from September 9 through 

September 27, 2013, among Vidalia 

onion producers in the production area. 

Only Vidalia onion producers that were 

engaged in the production of Vidalia 

onions in Georgia during the period of 

January 1 through December 31, 2012, 

may participate in the continuance 

referendum. 

USDA has determined that 

continuance referenda are an effective 

means for determining whether 

producers favor the continuation of 

marketing order programs. USDA would 

consider termination of the order if 

fewer than two-thirds of the producers 

voting in the referendum and producers 

of less than two-thirds of the volume of 

Vidalia onions represented in the 

referendum favor continuance. In 

evaluating the merits of continuance 

versus termination, USDA will not 

exclusively consider the results of the 

continuance referendum. USDA will 

also consider all other relevant 

information concerning the operation of 

the order and the relative benefits and 

disadvantages to producers, handlers, 

and consumers in determining whether 

continued operation of the order would 

tend to effectuate the declared policy of 

the Act. 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520), the ballot materials to be used in 

the referendum have been submitted to 

and approved by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) and 

have been assigned OMB No. 0581– 

0178, Vegetable and Specialty Crop 

Marketing Orders. It has been estimated 

that it will take an average of 20 minutes 

for each of the approximately 80 

producers of Vidalia onions in Georgia 

to cast a ballot. Participation is 

voluntary. Ballots postmarked after 

September 27, 2013, will not be 

included in the vote tabulation. 

Corey E. Elliott and Christian D. 

Nissen of the Southeast Marketing Field 

Office, Fruit and Vegetable Program, 

AMS, USDA, are hereby designated as 

the referendum agents of the Secretary 

of Agriculture to conduct this 

referendum. The procedure applicable 

to the referendum shall be the 

‘‘Procedure for the Conduct of 

Referenda in Connection With 

Marketing Orders for Fruits, Vegetables, 

and Nuts Pursuant to the Agricultural 

Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as 

Amended’’ (7 CFR 900.400–900.407). 

Ballots will be mailed to all producers 

of record and may also be obtained from 

the referendum agents, or from their 

appointees.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing 

Company Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Supplemental notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM); 

reopening of comment period. 

SUMMARY: We are revising an earlier 

proposed airworthiness directive (AD) 

for all The Boeing Company Model 777– 

200, –200LR, –300, and –300ER series 

airplanes. That supplemental notice of 

proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) 

proposed to require revising the 

maintenance program to incorporate a 

revision to the Airworthiness 

Limitations Section of the maintenance 

planning data (MPD) document. That 

SNPRM was prompted by reports of two 

in-service occurrences on Model 737– 


pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS-1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 146 / Tuesday, July 30, 2013 / Proposed Rules 45899 

400 airplanes of total loss of boost pump 

pressure of the fuel feed system, 

followed by loss of fuel system suction 

feed capability on one engine, and inflight shutdown of the engine. This 

action revises that SNPRM by adding 

Model 777F series airplanes to the 

applicability. We are proposing this AD 

to detect and correct failure of the 

engine fuel suction feed of the fuel 

system, which, in the event of total loss 

of the fuel boost pumps, could result in 

dual engine flameout, inability to restart 

the engines, and consequent forced 

landing of the airplane. Since this action 

imposes an additional burden over that 

proposed in the previous SNPRM, we 

are reopening the comment period to 

allow the public the chance to comment 

on this proposed change. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this supplemental NPRM by September 

13, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following

Discussion 

We issued a supplemental NPRM 

(SNPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to 

include an AD that would apply to all 

The Boeing Company Model 777–200, 

–200LR, –300, and –300ER series 

airplanes. The earlier SNPRM published 

in the Federal Register on March 7, 

2013 (78 FR 14722). The earlier SNPRM 

proposed to require revising the 

maintenance program to incorporate a 

revision to the Airworthiness 

Limitations Section of the MPD 

document. 

Actions Since Earlier SNPRM (78 FR 

14722, March 7, 2013) Was Issued 

Since we issued the earlier SNPRM 

(78 FR 14722, March 7, 2013), we have 

determined that Model 777F series 

airplanes are also affected by the 

identified unsafe condition and must be 

included in the applicablity. 

Comment 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

comment on the earlier SNPRM (78 FR 

14722, March 7, 2013). The following 

presents the comment received on the 

earlier SNPRM and the FAA’s response 

to that comment. 

Request To Add Airplanes 

FedEx asked that Model 777F series 

airplanes be added to the applicability 

identified in paragraph (c) of the earlier 

SNPRM (78 FR 14722, March 7, 2013), 

if the intent is to include all Model 777 

series airplanes. 

We agree with the commenter to 

include all Model 777 series airplanes 

for the reason provided previously. We 

have changed paragraph (c) of this 

second SNPRM to add Model 777F 

series airplanes. 

FAA’s Determination 

We are proposing this second SNPRM 

because we evaluated all the relevant 

information and determined the unsafe 

condition described previously is likely 

to exist or develop in other products of 

the same type design. The change 

described above expands the scope of 

the earlier SNPRM (78 FR 14722, March 

7, 2013). As a result, we have 

determined that it is necessary to reopen 

the comment period to provide 

additional opportunity for the public to 

comment on this second SNPRM. 

Proposed Requirements of the Second 

SNPRM 

This second SNPRM revises the 

earlier SNPRM (78 FR 14722, March 7, 

2013), by proposing to add airplanes to 

the applicability. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

would affect 676 airplanes of U.S. 

registry. We estimate the following costs 

to comply with this proposed AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators 

Maintenance Program .........

Revision ...............................

1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ................................ $85 per test ....................... $57,460, per test. 


pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS-1
45900 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 146 / Tuesday, July 30, 2013 / Proposed Rules 

We have received no definitive data 

that would enable us to provide a cost 

estimate for the on-condition actions or 

the optional terminating action 

specified in this AD. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. ‘‘Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs’’ describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

We are issuing this rulemaking under 

the authority described in Subtitle VII, 

Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: 

‘‘General requirements.’’ Under that 

section, Congress charges the FAA with 

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in 

air commerce by prescribing regulations 

for practices, methods, and procedures 

the Administrator finds necessary for 

safety in air commerce. This proposed 

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.

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 adding 

the following new airworthiness 

directive (AD): 

The Boeing Company: Docket No. FAA– 

2008–0618; Directorate Identifier 2007– 

NM–355–AD. 

(a) Comments Due Date 

We must receive comments by September 

13, 2013. 

(b) Affected ADs 

None. 

(c) Applicability 

This AD applies to all The Boeing 

Company Model 777–200, –200LR, –300,

certificated in any category. 

(d) Subject 

Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC)/ 

Air Transport Association (ATA) of America 

Code 2800, Aircraft Fuel System. 

(e) Unsafe Condition 

This AD was prompted by reports of two 

in-service occurrences on Model 737–400 

airplanes of total loss of boost pump pressure 

of the fuel feed system, followed by loss of 

fuel system suction feed capability on one 

engine, and in-flight shutdown of the engine. 

We are issuing this AD to detect and correct 

failure of the engine fuel suction feed of the 

fuel system, which, in the event of total loss 

of the fuel boost pumps, could result in dual 

engine flameout, inability to restart the 

engines, and consequent forced landing of 

the airplane. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(g) Maintenance Program Revision 

Within 90 days after the effective date of 

this AD: Revise the maintenance program to 

incorporate the Airworthiness Limitation 

(AWL) identified in Appendix 1 of this AD. 

The initial compliance time for 

accomplishing AWL No. AWL–28–101, 

Engine Fuel Suction Feed Operational Test, 

is within 7,500 flight hours or 3 years after 

the effective date of this AD, whichever is 

first. 

(h) No Alternative Actions, Intervals, and/or 

Critical Design Configuration Control 

Limitations (CDCCLs) 

After accomplishing the revision required 

by paragraph (g) of this AD, no alternative 

actions (e.g., tests), intervals, or CDCCLs may 

be used unless the actions, intervals, or 

CDCCLs are approved as an alternative 

method of compliance (AMOC) in 

accordance with the procedures specified in 

paragraph (j) of this AD. 

(i) Credit for Incorporating Previous 

Maintenance Program Revision 

This paragraph provides credit for the 

actions required by paragraph (g) of this AD, 

if those actions were performed before the 

effective date of this AD using AWL No. 28– 

AWL–101, Engine Fuel Suction Feed 

Operational Test, of Section D.2., AWLS— 

Fuel Systems, of Section 9, Airworthiness 

Limitations (AWLs) and Certification 

Maintenance Requirements (CMRs), 

D622W001–9, Revision February 2012, of the 

Boeing 777 Maintenance Planning Data 

(MPD) Document, provided the revised 

‘‘interval’’ specified in Appendix 1 of this AD 

is incorporated into the existing maintenance 

program within 90 days after the effective 

date of this AD. 

(j) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs) 

(1) The Manager, Seattle 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. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19,
