§ 457.131 Macadamia nut crop insurance 

provisions. 

* * * * * 

1. Definitions 

* * * * * 

Floaters. Inedible, husked ‘‘field run’’ 

nuts identified by water floatation. 

* * * * * 

Peewees. Mature and immature wet 

in-shell nuts that are smaller than 16 

mm (5/8 inch) in diameter, or as 

otherwise specified in the Special 

Provisions. 

* * * * * 

Wet in-shell. The weight of the 

macadamia nuts as they are removed 

from the orchard with the nut meats in 

the shells after removal of the husk and 

excluding floaters and peewees but 

prior to being dried. 

2. Unit Division 

Provisions in the Basic Provisions that 

allow optional units by section, section 

equivalent, or FSA farm serial number 

and by irrigated and non-irrigated 

practices are not applicable. Optional 

units may be established only if each 

optional unit is located on noncontiguous land, unless otherwise 

allowed by written agreement. 

3. Insurance Guarantees, Coverage 

Levels, and Prices for Determining 

Indemnities 

* * * * * 

(d) Instead of reporting your 

macadamia nut production for the 

previous crop year, as required by 

section 3 of the Basic Provisions, there 

is a one-year lag period. Each crop year 

you must report your production from 

two crop years ago, e.g., on the 2016 

crop year production report, you will 

provide your 2014 crop year production. 

* * * * * 

8. Insurance Period 

(a) * * * 

(2) The calendar date for the end of 

the insurance period for each crop year 

is the second June 30th after insurance 

attaches, or as specified in the Special 

Provisions. 

* * * * * 

11. Settlement of Claim 

* * * * * 

(b) * * * 

(7) * * * 

For example: 

You select 65 percent coverage level 

and 100 percent of the price election on 

10 acres of macadamia nuts in the unit. 

Your share is 100 percent. Your 

production guarantee (per acre) is 4,000 

pounds. The price election is $0.78. You 

are able to harvest 25,000 pounds. Your 

indemnity would be calculated as 

follows: 

(1) 10 acres × 4,000 pounds = 40,000 

pounds guarantee; 

(2) 40,000 pounds × $0.78 price 

election = $31,200 total value of 

guarantee; 

(4) 25,000 pounds production to 

count × $0.78 price election = $19,500 

value of production to count; 

(6) $31,200 total value of guarantee ¥ 

$19,500 value of production to count = 

$11,700 loss; and 

(7) $11,700 loss × 100 percent share 

= $11,700 indemnity payment.

Discussion 

On February 10, 2014, we issued AD 

2014–04–03, Amendment 39–17761 (79 

FR 10344, February 25, 2014). That AD 

required actions intended to address an 

unsafe condition on all Pacific 

Aerospace Limited Model 750XL 

airplanes and was based on mandatory 

continuing airworthiness information 

(MCAI) originated by an aviation 

authority of another country. 

Since we issued AD 2014–04–03, 

Amendment 39–17761 (79 FR 10344, 

February 25, 2014), Pacific Aerospace 

Limited revised the related service 

information. 

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), 

which is the airworthiness authority for 

New Zealand, has issued AD DCA/

750XL/15A, dated June 26, 2014 

(referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to 

correct an unsafe condition for Pacific 

Aerospace Limited Model 750XL 

airplanes. The MCAI states: 

DCA/750XL/15A revised to mandate the 

embodiment of modification PAC/XL/0627 to 

the control column attachment per the 

instructions in Pacific Aerospace Limited 

Service Bulletin (SB) PACSB/XL/070 issue 2, 

dated 3 June 2014. 

You may examine the MCAI on the 

Internet at http://www.regulations.gov 

by searching for and locating Docket No. 

FAA–2014–0516. 

Relevant Service Information 

Pacific Aerospace Limited has issued 

Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/070, Issue 

2, dated June 3, 2014. The actions 

described in this service information are 

intended to correct the unsafe condition 

identified in the MCAI. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of the 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 this State of 

Design Authority, they have notified us 

of the unsafe condition described in the 

MCAI and service information 

referenced above. We are proposing this 

AD because we evaluated all 

information and determined the unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other products of the same 

type design. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

will affect 17 products of U.S. registry. 

We also estimate that it would take 

about 6 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 $200 per 

product. 

Based on these figures, we estimate 

the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. 

operators to be $12,070, or $710 per 

product. 

According to the manufacturer, some 

of the costs of this AD may be covered 

under warranty, thereby reducing the 

cost impact on affected individuals. We 

do not control warranty coverage for 

affected individuals. As a result, we 

have included all costs in our cost 

estimate. 

The cost difference between AD 

2014–04–03, Amendment 39–17761 (79 

FR 10344, February 25, 2014), and this 

proposed AD is the increase in workhours from 1.5 to 6 and the increase in 

cost for parts from $100 to $200, for an 

overall cost difference on U.S. operators 

to be $8,202.50, or $482.50 per product. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. ‘‘Subtitle VII: 

Aviation Programs,’’ describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

We are issuing this rulemaking under 

the authority described in ‘‘Subtitle VII, 

Part A, Subpart III, section 44701: 

General requirements.’’ Under that 

section, Congress charges the FAA with 

promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in 

air commerce by prescribing regulations 

for practices, methods, and procedures 

the Administrator finds necessary for 

safety in air commerce. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority 

because it addresses an unsafe condition 

that is likely to exist or develop on 

products identified in this rulemaking 

action. 

Regulatory Findings 

We determined that this 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
