Airworthiness Directives; CFM International, S.A. Models CFM56-3 and -3B Turbofan Engines
This supplemental NPRM revises an earlier proposed airworthiness directive (AD), for certain CFM International, S.A. models CFM56-3 and -3B turbofan engines. That proposed AD would have required initial and repetitive inspections for damage to the fan blades. That proposed AD resulted from a report of a failed fan blade with severe out-of-limit wear on the underside of the blade platform where it contacts the damper. This supplemental NPRM revises the proposed AD to reduce the initial inspection compliance threshold, to correct the engine model designations affected, and to clarify some of the inspection wording in the compliance section. This supplemental NPRM results from a report of a failed fan blade with severe out-of- limit wear on the underside of the blade platform where it contacts the damper. We are proposing this supplemental NPRM to prevent failure of multiple fan blades, which could result in an uncontained failure of the engine and damage to the airplane.

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plan: Kentucky; Approval Section 110(a)(1) Maintenance Plan for the 1997 8-Hour Ozone Standard for the Owensboro Area; Limited Reopening of Comment Period
EPA is announcing a limited 30-day reopening of the public comment period for the proposed rule entitled ``Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plan: Kentucky; Approval Section 110(a)(1) Maintenance Plan for the 1997 8-Hour Ozone Standard for the Owensboro Area,'' for the purpose of limited public review and comment on supplemental information that was provided by the Commonwealth of Kentucky on July 15, 2009, in support of the Owensboro Area 110(a)(1) maintenance plan. The Owensboro, Kentucky Area consists of Daviess and a portion of Hancock Counties. The proposed rule was initially published in the Federal Register on January 20, 2010. The reason for this limited reopening of the comment period is that EPA has learned that supplemental information relating to projected emissions for the Owensboro Area that was referenced in the proposed rulemaking January 20, 2010 (75 FR 3183) was inadvertently omitted from the electronic docket when that proposed rulemaking was published. EPA has since made that information available in the electronic docket and wants to ensure an opportunity for the public to comment on that information. The July 15, 2009, supplemental information can be viewed online at https://www.regulations.gov using docket ID No. EPA-R04-OAR- 2007-1186-0043.
