approximately 2 workhours per airplane

to accomplish the proposed

modification, and that the average labor

rate is approximately $60 an hour. JAL

will provide parts at no cost to the

owner/operator. Based on these figures,

the total cost impact of the proposed AD

on U.S. operators is estimated to be

$31,200. This figure is based on the

assumption that no affected owner/

operator has incorporated the proposed

modification.

JAL has informed the FAA that 2

modification kits have been distributed

to affected airplane owners/operators.

Assuming that each of these

modification kits has been incorporated

on an affected airplane, then the

proposed cost impact upon U.S.

operators would be reduced $240 (2

workhours × $60 per hour × 2 airplanes)

from $31,200 to $30,960. The FAA also

believes that numerous owners/

operators of the affected airplanes have

accomplished the modification using

22AWA cable and terminal tags instead

of obtaining parts from the

manufacturer, as is provided for in the

proposed AD. This would further

reduce the cost impact of the proposed

AD upon U.S. operators of the affected

airplanes. The FAA has no way of

determining how many airplanes have

accomplished the proposed

modification utilizing the 22AWA cable

and terminal tags alternative.

The regulations proposed herein

would not have substantial direct effects

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. Therefore,

in accordance with Executive Order

12612, it is determined that this

proposal would not have sufficient

federalism implications to warrant the

preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

For the reasons discussed above, I

certify that this action (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) if

promulgated, 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. A copy of the draft

regulatory evaluation prepared for this

action has been placed in the Rules

Docket. A copy of it may be obtained by

Administrator, the Federal Aviation

Administration proposes to amend part

39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations

(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. App. 1354(a), 1421

and 1423; 49 U.S.C. 106(g); and 14 CFR

11.89.

§ 39.13 [Amended]

2. Section 39.13 is amended by

adding a new AD to read as follows:

Jetstream Aircraft Limited: Docket No. 91–

CE–85–AD.

Applicability: Jetstream Model 3101

airplanes, all serial numbers, and Jetstream

Model 3201 airplanes, serial numbers 790

through 950, certificated in any category.

Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane

identified in the preceding applicability

provision, regardless of whether it has been

modified, altered, or repaired in the area

subject to the requirements of this AD. For

airplanes that have been modified, altered, or

repaired so that the performance of the

requirements of this AD is affected, the

owner/operator must use the authority

provided in paragraph (d) of this AD to

request approval from the FAA. This

approval may address either no action, if the

current configuration eliminates the unsafe

condition, or different actions necessary to

address the unsafe condition described in

this AD. Such a request should include an

assessment of the effect of the changed

configuration on the unsafe condition

addressed by this AD. In no case does the

presence of any modification, alteration, or

repair remove any aircraft from the

applicability of this AD.

Compliance: Required within the next 200

hours time-in-service after the effective date

of this AD, unless already accomplished.

To prevent failure of a diode in the central

annunciator panel test button circuit, which,

if not detected and corrected, could result in

inadvertent engine shutdown while in flight

if the central annunciator panel test button is

pressed, accomplish the following:

(a) Modify the central annunciator panel

test button circuit (Amendment JA 911045)

by removing diodes from the engine stop

circuit and configuring a minor wiring

change in accordance with PART 2 of the

ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS

section of Jetstream Alert Service Bulletin

80–A–JA 911045, Revision 1, dated

November 1, 1991.

(b) As noted in Jetstream Alert Service

Bulletin 80–A–JA 911045, Revision 1, dated

November 1, 1991, terminals may be linked

using 22 AWA cable and terminal tags,

provided the following is accomplished:

(1) For airplanes without roof panel plug

breaks, identify the cables as WQ69 and

WQ70.

(2) For airplanes with roof panel plug

breaks, identify the cables as WQ71 and

WQ72.

(c) Special flight permits may be issued in

accordance with sections 21.197 and 21.199

of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to

a location where the requirements of this AD

can be accomplished.

(d) An alternative method of compliance or

adjustment of the compliance time that

provides an equivalent level of safety may be

approved by the Manager, Brussels Aircraft

Certification Office (ACO), Europe, Africa,

Middle East office, FAA, c/o American

Embassy, B–1000 Brussels, Belgium. The

request should be forwarded through an

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Parole Commission

28 CFR Part 2

Paroling, Recommitting, and

Supervising Federal Prisoners:

Revision of the Salient Factor Score

AGENCY: Parole Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Parole Commission

is proposing to revise the Salient Factor

Score at 28 CFR 2.20. The Salient Factor

Score which is an actuarial table that

the Commission uses to measure the

potential risk of parole violation. This

revision is designed to improve the

accuracy of the Salient Factor Score

with respect to older offenders. The

Commission is proposing to add one

point to a prisoner’s total score if the

current offense (or parole violation) was

committed at age 41 or older, provided

the prisoner does not already have the

highest possible total score (10). This

revision will give to the Salient Factor

Score improved risk prediction

accuracy. The revision is made

appropriate by the fact that the Parole

Commission has jurisdiction over an

aging population of prisoners and

parolees whose crimes were committed

prior to November 1, 1987.

DATES: Comments must be received by

June 12, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Office of

General Counsel, U.S. Parole

Commission, 5550 Friendship Blvd.,

Chevy Chase, Maryland 20815. For

further information contact: Pamela A.

Posch, Office of General Counsel,

Telephone (301) 492–5959.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Salient Factor Score at 28 CFR 2.20 is

an actuarial device, based upon

statistical research, that permits the U.S.

Parole Commission to make a prediction

as to the probability of future parole

violation. It is applied to every prisoner

who appears for an initial parole

hearing, and to every parolee who has

been returned to prison as a parole

violator. The current version of the

Salient Factor Score (SFS–81) was

adopted in 1981, and was recently revalidated through a study of the parole

records of federal prisoners released in

1987. This and other validation studies

have shown that the Salient Factor

Score is able to separate prisoners into

categories having significantly different

probabilities of recidivism, and that it

continues to have a high degree of

predictive accuracy.

However, with the aging of the Parole

Commission’s ‘‘old law’’ offender

population, it has become apparent that

the accuracy of the Salient Factor Score

could be improved by accounting for the

factor of ‘‘age at current offense’’ in the

case of older offenders and parole

violators. (The U.S. Parole

Commission’s jurisdiction is limited to

offenders whose crimes were committed

prior to November 1, 1987. See Section

235 of the Sentencing Reform Act of

1984, which appears as an Editorial

Note to 18 U.S.C. 3551.)

The Commission has long recognized

that many criminal offenders eventually

‘‘burn out’’ as the aging process catches

up with them. In a 1984 study by the

Commission’s Research Office, entitled

‘‘Burnout—Age At Release From Prison

and Recidivism’’, it was found that

recidivism rates do decline with

increased age, and that it would be

justifiable to improve the scores of

prisoners whose current offense was

committed at age 41 or older. At the

present time, the average age of the ‘‘old

law’’ prison population is 43. Thus, it

has now become appropriate to consider

adding this factor to the score.

In order to test the accuracy of the

proposed revision, the revised score was
