Airworthiness Directives; Fokker 

Services B.V. Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for all 

Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 

0070 and 0100 airplanes. This AD was 

prompted by a design review, which 

revealed that no controlled bonding 

provisions are present on a number of 

critical locations inside the fuel tank or 

connected to the fuel tank wall. This AD 

requires installing additional bonding 

provisions in the fuel tank, and revising 

the airplane maintenance or inspection 

program by incorporating fuel 

airworthiness limitation items and 

critical design configuration control 

limitations. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent an ignition source in the fuel 

tank vapor space, which could result in 

a fuel tank explosion and consequent 

loss of the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective May 

12, 2014. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of May 12, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 


ehiers on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES
18988 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 66 / Monday, April 7, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to all Fokker Services B.V. Model 

F.28 Mark 0070 and 0100 airplanes. The 

NPRM published in the Federal 

Register on August 12, 2013 (78 FR 

48832). The NPRM was prompted by a 

design review, which revealed that no 

controlled bonding provisions are 

present on a number of critical locations 

inside the fuel tank or connected to the 

fuel tank wall. The NPRM proposed to 

require installing additional bonding 

provisions in the fuel tank, and revising 

the airplane maintenance or inspection 

program by incorporating fuel 

airworthiness limitation items and 

critical design configuration control 

limitations. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent an ignition source in the fuel 

tank vapor space, which could result in 

a fuel tank explosion and consequent 

loss of the airplane. 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA 

Airworthiness Directive 2012–0242, 

dated November 12, 2012 (referred to 

after this as the Mandatory Continuing 

Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the 

MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition 

for the specified products. The MCAI 

states: 

Prompted by an accident * * *, the FAA 

published Special Federal Aviation 

Regulation (SFAR) 88 [(66 FR 23086, May 7, 

2001)], and the Joint Aviation Authorities 

(JAA) published Interim Policy INT/POL/25/ 

12. 

The design review conducted by Fokker 

Services on the Fokker 70 and Fokker 100 in 

response to these regulations revealed that no 

controlled bonding provisions are present on 

a number of critical locations, inside the fuel 

tank or connected to the fuel tank wall. 

This condition, if not corrected, may create 

an ignition source in the fuel tank vapour 

space, possibly resulting in a fuel tank 

explosion and consequent loss of the 

aeroplane. 

For the reasons described above, this [EASA] 

AD requires the installation of additional 

bonding provisions and, subsequently, the 

implementation of the associated Fuel 

Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALI) and 

Critical Design Configuration Control 

Limitations (CDCCL[s]) [and revising the 

maintenance program to incorporate the ALIs 

and CDCCLs]. 

You may examine the MCAI in the 

AD docket on the Internet at http://

www.regulations.gov/

#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2013-0674- 

0002. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (78 

FR 48832, August 12, 2013) or on the 

determination of the cost to the public. 

Explanation of Change Made to This 

AD 

There was an error in the Fokker 

drawing number referenced in 

paragraphs (g)(1)(ix) and (g)(2)(ix) of the 

NPRM (78 FR 48832, August 12, 2013). 

The Fokker drawing number referenced 

in the NPRM was W692710, but should 

have been W69710. That error has been 

corrected in paragraphs (g)(1)(ix) and 

(g)(2)(ix) of this final rule. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the available data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this AD 

with the change described previously 

and minor editorial changes. We have 

determined that these minor changes: 

• Are consistent with the intent that 

was proposed in the NPRM (78 FR 

48832, August 12, 2013) for correcting 

the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (78 FR 48832, 

August 12, 2013). 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 10 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Installation of bonding provisions and maintenance program revision.36 work-hours × $85 per hour = $3,060 ........ $0 $3,060 $30,600 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OFAC is 

adopting a final rule amending the ITSR 

by expanding an existing general license 

that authorizes the exportation or 

reexportation of food to individuals and 

entities in Iran to include the broader 

category of agricultural commodities. 

Exports of certain specified items, as 

well as exports to certain persons, are 

excluded from the general license. 

Additionally, OFAC is clarifying, for 

purposes of the general licenses in ITSR 

§ 560.530, that the definitions of the 

terms agricultural commodities, 

medicine, and medical device include, 

in the case of items subject to the Export 

Administration Regulations, 15 CFR 

Part 730 et seq. (‘‘EAR’’), items that are 

designated as EAR99 and, in the case of 

items that are not subject to the EAR, 

items that would be designated as 

EAR99 if they were located in the 

United States. 

Furthermore, this rule adds a 

definition of ‘‘covered person,’’ which, 

with respect to the exportation or 

reexportation of items subject to the 

EAR, is a U.S. person or a non-U.S. 

person, and for purposes of items not 

subject to the EAR, is a U.S. person, 

wherever located, or an entity owned or 

controlled by a U.S. person and 

established or maintained outside the 

United States (a ‘‘U.S.-owned or 

-controlled foreign entity’’). This 

amendment clarifies that, for purposes 

of the exportation or reexportation of 

items that are not subject to the EAR, 

and consistent with 31 CFR 560.556, the 

general licenses set forth in § 560.530 

apply to any U.S. person, wherever 

located, or any U.S.-owned or 

-controlled foreign entity. 

Finally, OFAC is adding a new 

general license that authorizes the 

exportation or reexportation of 

replacement parts for certain medical 

devices to individuals and entities in 

Iran provided that the replacement parts 

are designated under the EAR as EAR99, 

or would be designated as EAR99 if they 

were located in the United States, and 

limited to a one-for-one export or 

reexport basis. This rule also updates 

the definition of ‘‘basic medical 

supplies’’ to exclude the word ‘‘basic’’ 

and make related conforming changes. 

Accordingly, the ‘‘List of Basic Medical
