Corrective Actions 

(i) For all airplanes: Do an external HFEC 

inspection of the lap joints in Sections 41, 42, 

and 46 for cracks, by doing all the actions, 

including all applicable related investigative 

and corrective actions, specified in the

time after the effective date of this AD.

ACO, to make those findings. For a repair 

method to be approved, the repair must meet 

the certification basis of the airplane and the

Regulations to Amend the Civil 

Procedures 

AGENCY: Office of General Counsel 

(OGC), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule amends the 

procedures governing NOAA’s 

administrative proceedings for the 

assessment of civil penalties; 

suspension, revocation, modification, or 

denial of permits; issuance and use of 

written warnings; and release or 

forfeiture of seized property. The 

principal change removes the 

requirement that an Administrative Law 

Judge state good reason(s) for departing 

from the civil penalty or permit sanction 

assessed by NOAA in its charging 

document. This revision eliminates any 

presumption in favor of the civil penalty 

or permit sanction assessed by NOAA. 

The other change corrects a clerical 

error in a citation to rules pertaining to 

protective orders issued by 

Administrative Law Judges. 

DATES: Written comments on this 

proposed rule must be submitted by 

April 16, 2010.
