Federal Aviation Administration 

14 CFR Part 39 

[Docket No. FAA–2005–21975; Directorate 

Identifier 2005–NM–122–AD; Amendment 

39–14365; AD 2005–23–07]

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing 

Model 727 Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for all 

Boeing Model 727 airplanes. This AD 

requires revising the Limitations section 

of the airplane flight manual to prohibit 

resetting a tripped circuit breaker for a 

fuel pump. This AD results from fuel 

system reviews conducted by the 

manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to 

prohibit the resetting of a tripped circuit 

breaker for a fuel pump, which could 

allow an electrical fault to override the 

protective features of the circuit breaker, 

and could result in sparks inside the 

fuel tank, ignition of fuel vapors, and 

consequent fire or explosion. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

December 13, 2005. 

ADDRESSES: You may examine the AD 

docket on the Internet at http:// 

dms.dot.gov or in person at the Docket

ADDRESSES section. 

Discussion 

The FAA issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to include an AD that would 

apply to all Boeing Model 727 airplanes. 

That NPRM was published in the 

Federal Register on July 29, 2005 (70 FR 

43802). That NPRM proposed to require 

revising the Limitations section of the 

airplane flight manual to prohibit 

resetting a tripped circuit breaker for a 

fuel pump. 

Comments 

We provided the public the 

opportunity to participate in the 

development of this AD. We have 

considered the one comment received. 

The commenter supports the NPRM. 

Clarification of Alternative Method of 

Compliance (AMOC) Paragraph 

We have revised this action to clarify 

the appropriate procedure for notifying 

the principal inspector before using any 

approved AMOC on any airplane to 

which the AMOC applies. 

Conclusion 

We have carefully reviewed the 

available data, including the comment 

received, and determined that air safety 

and the public interest require adopting 

the AD with the change described 

previously. We have determined that 

this change will neither increase the 

economic burden on any operator nor 

increase the scope of the AD. 

Costs of Compliance 

There are about 600 airplanes of the 

affected design in the worldwide fleet. 

This AD affects about 300 airplanes of 

U.S. registry. The action in this AD 

takes about 1 work hour per airplane, at 

an average labor rate of $65 per work 

hour. Based on these figures, the 

estimated cost of the AD for U.S. 

operators is $19,500, or $65 per 

airplane. 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 215 / Tuesday, November 8, 2005 / Rules and Regulations 67645 

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 have 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 

DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and 

(3) 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. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this AD and placed it in the AD docket. 

See the ADDRESSES section for a location 

to examine the regulatory evaluation.

breaker, and could result in sparks inside the 

fuel tank, ignition of fuel vapors, and 

consequent fire or explosion. 

Compliance 

(e) You are responsible for having the 

actions required by this AD performed within 

the compliance times specified, unless the 

actions have already been done.

of this AD, revise the Limitations section of 

the Boeing 727 AFM to include the following 

statement. This may be done by inserting a 

copy of this AD into the AFM. 

‘‘Do not reset a tripped fuel pump circuit 

breaker.’’

Note 1: When a statement identical to that 

in paragraph (f) of this AD has been included 

in the general revisions of the AFM, the 

general revisions may be inserted into the 

AFM, and the copy of this AD may be 

removed from the AFM. 

Alternative Methods of Compliance

Watch, Watch Movement and Jewelry 

Programs 

AGENCIES: Import Administration, 

International Trade Administration, 

Department of Commerce; Office of 

Insular Affairs, Department of the 

Interior. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Departments of 

Commerce and the Interior (the 

Departments) amend their regulations 

governing watch duty-exemption 

allocations and the watch and jewelry 

duty-refund benefits for producers in 

the United States insular possessions 

(the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, 

American Samoa and the 

Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana 

Islands). The rule amends the 

regulations by making technical changes 

required by passage of the 

Miscellaneous Trade and Technical 

Corrections Act of 2004; extending the 

duty refund benefits to include the 

value of usual and customary health 

insurance, life insurance and pension 

benefits; raising the ceiling on the 

amount of jewelry that qualifies for the 

duty refund benefit; allowing new 

insular jewelry producers to assemble 

jewelry and have such jewelry treated as 

an article of the insular possessions for 

up to 18 months after the jewelry 

company commences assembly 

operations; allowing duty refund 

certificate holders to secure a duty 

refund on any articles that are imported 

into the customs territory of the United 

States by the certificate holder duty 

paid; providing a more comprehensive 

definition of ‘‘unit;’’ adjusting the 

amount of watch repairs that are eligible 

for the duty refund; providing 

compensation to insular watch 

producers if tariffs on watches and 

watch movements are reduced; and 

clarifying which wages are eligible for 

purposes of determining the duty refund 

and identifying which records are 

needed for the audit. 

DATES: This rule is effective December 8, 

2005.
