### 3336 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 13 / Tuesday, January 21, 2014 / Proposed Rules

69 12 U.S.C. 1843(o).

70 This limit permits these FHCs to hold significantly larger positions in commodities than those FHCs that conduct commodities activity under complementary authority, which limits their commodities holdings to 5 percent of tier 1 capital. commodities that were not permissible for BHCs as of September 30, 1997, if the company was engaged in the United States in such activities as of September 30, 1997. 69 This statutory provision limits these grandfathered activities to no more than 5 percent of the FHC’s total consolidated assets and prohibits the FHC from cross-marketing the services of its subsidiary depository institution(s) and its subsidiary(ies) engaged in activities authorized under section 4(o). 70 In contrast to complementary authority, this authority is automatic; no approval by or notice to the Board is required for a company to rely on this authority for its commodity activities. Only two FHCs currently engage in activities under these grandfather rights.

The statutory grandfathering authority in section 4(o) of the BHC Act permits certain BHCs to engage in a potentially broader set of physical commodity activities than FHCs may conduct under the complementary authority discussed above, and without the limitations on duration and control contained in merchant banking authority. At the same time, grandfathered physical commodity activities may pose risks to safety and soundness of the grandfathered FHCs and to financial stability. As a result, the Board is seeking comment on whether additional prudential requirements could help ensure that activities conducted under section 4(o) of the BHC Act do not pose undue risks to the safety and soundness of the BHC or its subsidiary depository institutions, or to financial stability. The Board is also considering how to address the potential risks to safety and soundness and financial stability that may be presented by activities authorized under section 4(o). In addition to comment on these general questions, the Board invites comments on the following:

Question 23. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the Board instituting additional safety and soundness, capital, liquidity, reporting, or disclosure requirements for BHCs engaging in activities or investments under section 4(o) of the BHC Act? How should the Board formulate such requirements?

Question 24. Does section 4(o) of the BHC Act create competitive equity or other issues or authorize activities that cannot be conducted in a safe and sound manner by an FHC? If so, describe such issues or activities.

V. Conclusion

The Board is seeking information on all aspects of physical commodities activities of BHCs and banks and invites comments on the risks and benefits of allowing FHCs to conduct these activities as well as ways in which risks to the safety and soundness of a FHC and its affiliated IDIs and to the financial system can be contained or limited. In addition, the Board invites comment on all of the questions set forth in this ANPR. The Board will carefully review all comments submitted and information provided as well as information regarding physical commodities activities derived from the Board’s regulatory and supervisory activities. Once the Board has completed its review of this information, it will consider what further actions, including a rulemaking, regarding these activities are needed.

By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, January 14, 2014. Robert deV. Frierson, Secretary of the Board.

Discussion

We received a report of the aileron system temporarily jamming in flight on an M7 Aerospace LLC Model SA227–DC (C–26B) airplane. The flight crew took corrective action by reversing the control wheel, which unjammed the aileron controls and allowed the aircraft to return to the airport safely.

Investigation revealed that the aileron control cable chain in the copilots control column was dry (no lubrication) and was binding on the sprocket. A lack of lubrication and wear on the chain bearings caused the chain to ride on the tip of the sprocket and jam between the tip of the sprocket and inside wall of the control column. A second operator reported finding an un-lubricated aileron control chain with a bound link that was almost frozen. An inspection of an aileron control chain provided by an operator that lubricates the chains andreplaces them at 10,000 hours time-inservice revealed small metal particles within the grease. These particles were believed to be coming from the sprocket. Investigation also revealed that there is conflicting information in the maintenance manual that instructs to apply both corrosion inhibitor and lubricant that are incompatible. The figure in the maintenance manual related to lubricating the aileron control chain points to the aileron rather than the pilot and copilot control columns.

This condition, if not corrected, could result in jamming of the aileron control cable chain in the pilot and copilot control columns, which could result in loss of control.

Relevant Service Information

We reviewed M7 Aerospace LLC SA26 Series Service Bulletin 26–27–001 R2; SA226 Series Service Bulletin 226– 27–074 R2; SA227 Series Service Bulletin 227–27–054 R2; and SA227 Series Commuter Category Service Bulletin CC7–27–026 R2, all dated October 23, 2013. The service information describes procedures for repetitively replacing and lubricating the aileron control cable chain, sprocket, and bearings, and checking the aileron control cable tension.

FAA’s Determination

We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop in other products of these same type designs. Proposed AD Requirements

This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information described previously. Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this proposed AD affects 360 airplanes of U.S. registry.

We estimate the following costs to comply with this proposed AD:



### E STIMATED 

### C OSTS

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

Replacing and lubricating the aileron chain, sprocket, and bearings in the control

columns. 20 work-hours × $85 per hour = $1,700. $1,935 $3,635 $1,308,600

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 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. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety.
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):

**ACTION :**  Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

**SUMMARY :**  We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2013–03– 23, for all Gulfstream Aerospace LP (Type Certificate previously held by Israel Aircraft Industries, Ltd.) Model Gulfstream G150 airplanes. AD 2013– 03–23 currently requires revising the airplane flight manual (AFM) to include procedures to advise the flightcrew of certain runway slope and anti-ice corrections and take-off distance values. Since we issued AD 2013–03–23, a revision to the AFM has been issued,which modifies runway slope and antiice corrections to both V1 and take-off distance values. This proposed AD would require revising the Performance section of the AFM, which includes the revised procedures. We are proposing this AD to prevent the use of published, non-conservative data, which could result in the inability to meet the required take-off performance, with a consequent hazard to safe operation during performance-limited take-off operations.

Discussion

On February 7, 2013, we issued AD 2013–03–23, Amendment 39–17357 (78 FR 11567, February 19, 2013), for all Gulfstream Aerospace LP (Type Certificate previously held by Israel Aircraft Industries, Ltd.) Model Gulfstream G150 airplanes. AD 2013– 03–23 required revising the Performance section of the AFM to include procedures to advise the flightcrew of certain runway slope and anti-ice corrections and take-off distance values.

Since we issued AD 2013–03–23, Amendment 39–17357 (78 FR 11567, February 19, 2013), Gulfstream G150 Airplane Flight Manual G150–1001–1, Revision 17, dated April 17, 2013, has been published, which modifies runway slope and anti-ice corrections to V1 and take-off distance values.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI), which is the aviation authority for Israel, has issued Israeli Airworthiness Directive 01–12–02– 02R1, dated April 23, 2013 (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:

This AD mandates revised limitations in the G150 AFM, pertaining to the Performance Section. Each operator must incorporate Rev. 17 to the G150 AFM and remove previous AFM TR 3 dated December 14, 2012.

You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http:// www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating it in Docket No. FAA–
