67042 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 218 / Wednesday, November 12, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 

Two commenters expressed support 

for the mango program. One commenter 

stated that the program has helped 

expand the market and presentation of 

fresh mangos in general. The commenter 

also opined that the program has helped 

improve stability in the marketplace. 

Another commenter stated that the 

Board provides a great service through 

education, marketing, and research to 

help increase the awareness and 

consumption of mangos. 

One commenter opposed the program 

and argued that taxpayer dollars should 

not be used to promote mangos. 

Research and promotion programs 

overseen by USDA are self-help 

programs and do not receive taxpayer 

funds. The mango program is funded by 

first handlers and importers of mangos. 

Complexity of the Order. The Order is 

not unduly complex. It provides 

authority for the Board to collect 

assessments from mango importers and 

first handlers to help maintain and 

expand the domestic market for mangos. 

Extent To Which the Order Overlaps, 

Duplicates, or Conflicts With Other 

Regulations. The Department has not 

identified regulations that duplicate, 

overlap, or conflict with the Order. 

Degree To Which Technology, 

Economic Conditions or Other Factors 

Have Changed. Regarding evaluations of 

the program or the degree to which 

technology, economic conditions, or 

other factors have changed in the area 

affected by the Order, section 512(a)(6) 

of the Act and section 1206.51 of the 

Order require the Board to evaluate the 

program and to comply with the 

independent evaluation provision of the 

Federal Agricultural Improvement and 

Reform Act of 1996 (FAIR) [7 USC 7401] 

every five years. The goal of these 

evaluations is to assure that the Order 

and the regulations implemented under 

it fit the needs of the industry and are 

consistent with the Act. 

The Board conducted an evaluation of 

the program under the FAIR Act in 2010 

and the next five-year evaluation is due 

in 2015. The previously mentioned 

study conducted by Dr. Ward with the 

University of Florida was part of the 

2010 evaluation. It used household 

panel data to develop econometric 

models for measuring the Board’s 

impact on increasing mango demand. 

The models established that the Board 

has had a positive economic impact for 

the demand for mangos, mostly by 

attracting more buyers (increased 

market penetration), and to a lesser 

extent, by increasing the number of 

mango purchases per buyer. The study 

concluded that every $1 invested in 

Board activities adds an additional $7 in 

mango industry revenue. The volume of 

mango imports is expected to continue 

to increase in the future. 

Based upon its review, AMS has 

determined that the Order should be 

continued. AMS plans to continue 

working with the mango industry in 

maintaining an effective program.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for all 

Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and 

A321 series airplanes. This AD was 

prompted by a determination that more 

restrictive airworthiness limitations are 

necessary. This AD requires revising the 

maintenance or inspection program as 

applicable. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent a safety-significant latent failure 

(which is not annunciated) which, in 

combination with one or more other 

specific failures or events, would result 

in a hazardous or catastrophic failure 

condition. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

December 17, 2014. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of December 17, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to all Airbus Model A318, A319, 

A320, and A321 series airplanes. The 

NPRM published in the Federal 

Register on July 18, 2014 (79 FR 41938). 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA 

Airworthiness Directive 2013–0148, 

dated July 16, 2013 (referred to after this 

as the Mandatory Continuing 

Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the 

MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition 

all Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, 

and A321 series airplanes. The MCAI 

states: 

The airworthiness limitations for Airbus 

aeroplanes are currently published in 

Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) 

documents. The airworthiness limitations 

applicable to the Certification Maintenance 

Requirements (CMR) were previously 

specified in AIRBUS A318/A319/A320/A321 

CMR document referenced AI/ST4/993.436/

88. 

DGAC France issued AD F–2005–101 

[(http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_

2005_5886_F20051010tb_superseded.pdf/

AD_F-2005-101_2)] (EASA approval 2005– 

5886) to require compliance with the 

maintenance tasks as specified in that 

document. 

Since that [DGAC France] AD was issued, 

the CMR tasks are specified in Airbus A318/ 

A319/A320/A321 ALS Part 3, which is 

approved by EASA. The original issue of this 

document introduced more restrictive 

maintenance requirements and/or 

airworthiness limitations. Failure to comply 

with the maintenance requirements 

contained in this document could result in 

an unsafe condition. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD supersedes DGAC France AD F– 

2005–101 and requires the implementation of 

the instructions and airworthiness 

limitations as specified in Airbus A318/

A319/A320/A321 ALS Part 3 Revision 01.

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 218 / Wednesday, November 12, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 67043 

The unsafe condition is a safetysignificant latent failure (which is not 

annunciated) which, in combination 

with one or more other specific failures 

or events, would result in a hazardous 

or catastrophic failure condition. You 

may examine the MCAI in the AD 

docket on the Internet at http://

www.regulations.gov/

#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-0452- 

0002. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (79 

FR 41938, July 18, 2014) or on the 

determination of the cost to the public. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this AD 

as proposed except for minor editorial 

changes. We have determined that these 

minor changes: 

• Are consistent with the intent that 

was proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 

41938, July 18, 2014) for correcting the 

unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 41938, 

July 18, 2014). 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 851 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We also estimate that it will take 

about 1 work-hour per product to 

comply with the basic requirements of 

this AD. The average labor rate is $85 

per work-hour. Required parts will cost 

about $0 per product. Based on these 

figures, we estimate the cost of this AD 

on U.S. operators to be $72,335, or $85 

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 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 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.

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are superseding 

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2005–07– 

12, which applies to certain the Boeing 

Company Model 737–100, –200, –200C, 

–300, –400, and –500 series airplanes. 

AD 2005–07–12 required detailed and 

eddy current inspections to detect 

cracking of the frame web around the 

cutout for the doorstop intercostal strap 

at the aft side of the station (STA) 291.5 

frame at stringer 16R, and corrective 

action if necessary. Since we issued AD 

2005–07–12, we received reports of new 

findings of cracking at various locations 

of the STA 277 to STA 291.5 frames and 

intercostals, including webs, chords, 

clips, and shear ties, between stringers 

7R and 17R. This new AD requires 

inspections for cracking at the forward 

galley door cutout, and corrective 

actions if necessary. This new AD also 

reduces a certain inspection threshold 

required by AD 2005–07–12. We are 

issuing this AD to detect and correct 

fatigue cracking of the aft frame and 

frame support structure of the forward 

galley door, which could result in a 

severed fuselage frame web, rapid 

decompression of the airplane, and 

possible loss of the forward galley door. 

DATES: This AD is effective December

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to supersede AD 2005–07–12, 

Amendment 39–14036 (70 FR 17596, 

April 7, 2005). AD 2005–07–12 applied 

to certain The Boeing Company Model 

737–100, –200, –300, –400, and –500 

series airplanes. The NPRM published 

in the Federal Register on October 2, 

2013 (78 FR 60804). The NPRM was 

prompted by reports of new findings of 

cracking at various locations of the STA 

277 to STA 291.5 frames and 

intercostals, including webs, chords, 

clips, and shear ties, between stringers 

7R and 17R. The NPRM proposed to 

continue to require detailed and eddy 

current inspections to detect cracking of 

the frame web around the cutout for the 

doorstop intercostal strap at the aft side 

of the STA 291.5 frame at stringer 16R, 

and corrective action if necessary. The 

NPRM also proposed to require new 

inspections for cracking at the forward 

galley door cutout, and corrective 

actions if necessary. In addition, the 

NPRM also proposed to reduce a certain 

inspection threshold required by AD 

2005–07–12. We are issuing this AD to 


wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES
