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):
Eagle Aircraft (Malaysia) SdN. BhD.: Docket
No. FAA–2004–19897; Directorate
Identifier 2004–CE–45–AD
When Is the Last Date I Can Submit
Comments on This Proposed AD?
(a) We must receive comments on this
proposed airworthiness directive (AD) by
February 11, 2005.
What Other ADs Are Affected by This
Action?
(b) None.
What Airplanes Are Affected by This AD?

assembly welded design, part number (P/N)
2720D07–02; and
(2) Certificated in any category.
What Is the Unsafe Condition Presented in
This AD?
(d) This AD results from mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
issued by the airworthiness authority for
Malaysia. We are issuing this AD to prevent
binding of the co-pilot rudder pedal assembly
due to premature wear of the bushing, which
could result in loss of co-pilot rudder and
brake control. This failure could result in loss
of control of the airplane.
What Must I Do To Address This Problem?
(e) To address this problem, you must do
the following, unless already done:
Actions
Compliance
Procedures
(1) Inspect the co-pilot rudder pedal assembly
welded design, part number (P/N) 2720D07–
02, for cracks.
(i) If cracks are found, replace the assembly
with a new bolted design co-pilot rudder
pedal assembly, P/N 2720D07–10.
(ii) If no cracks are found, either:
(A) Modify P/N 2720D07–02 by replacing the
rudder control bushing with a new P/N
2720D08–39 and installing a rudder control
stopper, P/N 2720D08–44; or
(B) Replace P/N 2720D07–02 with a new
bolted design co-pilot rudder pedal assembly,
P/N 2720D07–10.
(2) Do not install a co-pilot rudder pedal assembly, P/N 2720D07–02, unless it has been
inspected and modified as required in paragraphs (e)(1) and (e)(1)(ii)(A) of this AD.
Inspect within 30 days after the effective date
of this AD. If cracks are found during the inspection, before further flight replace the
rudder pedal assembly. If no cracks are
found during the inspection, before further
flight, modify or replace the rudder pedal
assembly.
To inspect and modify the rudder pedal assembly, follow Eagle Aircraft Optional Service Bulletin SB 1096, dated September 16,
2003. To replace the rudder pedal assembly, follow Eagle Aircraft Optional Service
Bulletin SB 1097, dated September 16,
2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 29, 2003, the President issued
Executive Order 13312, which
implemented Public Law 108–19,
known as the Clean Diamond Trade Act
(the Act). The Act implemented the
Kimberley Process in the United States
by authorizing the President to prohibit
the importation into or the exportation
from the United States of any rough
diamond, from whatever source, unless
the rough diamond is controlled
through the Kimberley Process
Certification Scheme, as defined in the
Act. This means shipments of rough
diamonds between the United States
and nonparticipants in the Kimberley
Process are prohibited, and shipments
between the United States and
participants are permitted only if they
are handled in accordance with the
standards, practices, and procedures of
the Kimberley Process set forth in the
Rough Diamonds Control Regulations,
31 CFR part 592, promulgated by the
Department of the Treasury’s Office of
Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) (see 69
FR 56936 dated September 23, 2004).
Section 6 of the Act names the Census
Bureau as the exporting authority for the
United States. This requires the Census
Bureau to validate the KPC for exports
of rough diamonds. The KPC is a
forgery-resistant document of a
participant nation or entity that
demonstrates that an exportation of
rough diamonds has been controlled
through the Kimberley Process and
contains the minimum elements
required by OFAC regulations (31 CFR
part 592). Each KPC is assigned an
identification number called the KPC
number.
To comply with the requirements of
the Act, the Census Bureau amended the
VerDate jul<14>2003
17:43 Jan 11, 2005
Jkt 205001
FTSR on October 20, 2003, to
incorporate requirements for the
mandatory electronic filing via the AES
of exports of rough diamonds. The
Census Bureau proposes to amend the
FTSR to require the reporting through
AES of the KPC number found on the
KPC for all exports of rough diamonds
classified under Harmonized System
subheadings 7102.10, 7102.21, and
7102.31. This requirement will not
affect filers of Shipper’s Export
Declarations since all exports of rough
diamonds are required to be filed
through the AES.
Shipments of rough diamonds from
the United States must also meet
additional Department of the Treasury
requirements identified in the Office of
Foreign Assets Control’s Rough
Diamonds Control Regulations, Title 31,
CFR, Part 592.
To further the implementation of the
Clean Diamonds Trade Act and
Executive Order 13312, which
implements the Act, the Census Bureau
proposes to amend § 30.63 of the FTSR
to specify the requirement for reporting
the KPC number via the AES for exports
of rough diamonds.
The Departments of State, the
Treasury, and Homeland Security
concur with the provisions contained in
this notice of proposed rulemaking.
Rulemaking Requirements
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Chief Counsel for Regulation of
the Department of Commerce certified
to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the
Small Business Administration (SBA)
that this rule will not have significant
impact on a substantial number of small
entities. This action would require that
U.S. Principal Parties in Interest
(USPPIs) or authorized agents in the
United States report the KPC number
along with current data filing
requirement to the AES. Only those
USPPIs or agents filing information on
exports of rough diamonds would be
required to report the KPC number. The
SBA’s table of size standards indicates
that businesses that are the USPPI or
authorized agent and file export
information are considered small
businesses if they employ less than 500
people.
The Census Bureau estimates that
approximately 1,600 shipments of rough
diamonds classified under Harmonized
System subheadings 7102.10, 7102.21,
and 7102.31 were exported from the
United States in 2003. There were on
average 47 exporters exporting rough
diamonds each month during 2003. This
number of exporters reflects those
companies that actually exported rough
PO 00000
Frm 00047

Sfmt 4702
2073
diamonds. We do not know the total
population of exporters of rough
diamonds. Of the total number of rough
diamond exporters, the number that are
small entities also is unknown. The
Census Bureau estimates that it will take
7 seconds to report the KPC number in
AES, which is 10 total burden hours on
all exporters. Because the new
requirement imposes only a small
burden on affected entities, this rule
would not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities. Accordingly, a regulatory
flexibility analysis is not required and
has not been prepared.
Executive Orders
This rule has been determined to be
not significant for purposes of Executive
Order 12806. It has been determined
that this rule does not contain policies
with Federalism implications as that
term is defined under Executive Order
13132.
Paperwork Reduction Act
Notwithstanding any other provision
of law, no person is required to respond
to, nor shall a person be subject to a
penalty for failure to comply with, a
collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), unless that
collection of information displays a
current, valid Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) control number. This rule
contains a collection-of-information
subject to the requirements of the PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and that has
been approved under OMB control
number 0607–0152. Since the KPC
number is readily available to the
exporting company and the number of
exporting companies affected by this
revision is small, there will only be a
minimal net increase (estimated at 10
total burden hours) in respondent
burden. We will request OMB to
approve this respondent burden
increase.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 29, 2003, the President issued Executive Order 13312, which
implemented Public Law 108-19, known as the Clean Diamond Trade Act
(the Act). The Act implemented the Kimberley Process in the United
States by authorizing the President to prohibit the importation into or
the exportation from the United States of any rough diamond, from
whatever source, unless the rough diamond is controlled through the
Kimberley Process Certification Scheme, as defined in the Act. This
means shipments of rough diamonds between the United States and
nonparticipants in the Kimberley Process are prohibited, and shipments
between the United States and participants are permitted only if they
are handled in accordance with the standards, practices, and procedures
of the Kimberley Process set forth in the Rough Diamonds Control
Regulations, 31 CFR part 592, promulgated by the Department of the
Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) (see 69 FR 56936
dated September 23, 2004).
Section 6 of the Act names the Census Bureau as the exporting
authority for the United States. This requires the Census Bureau to
validate the KPC for exports of rough diamonds. The KPC is a forgery-
resistant document of a participant nation or entity that demonstrates
that an exportation of rough diamonds has been controlled through the
Kimberley Process and contains the minimum elements required by OFAC
regulations (31 CFR part 592). Each KPC is assigned an identification
number called the KPC number.
To comply with the requirements of the Act, the Census Bureau
amended the FTSR on October 20, 2003, to incorporate requirements for
the mandatory electronic filing via the AES of exports of rough
diamonds. The Census Bureau proposes to amend the FTSR to require the
reporting through AES of the KPC number found on the KPC for all
exports of rough diamonds classified under Harmonized System
subheadings 7102.10, 7102.21, and 7102.31. This requirement will not
affect filers of Shipper's Export Declarations since all exports of
rough diamonds are required to be filed through the AES.
Shipments of rough diamonds from the United States must also meet
additional Department of the Treasury requirements identified in the
Office of Foreign Assets Control's Rough Diamonds Control Regulations,
Title 31, CFR, Part 592.
To further the implementation of the Clean Diamonds Trade Act and
Executive Order 13312, which implements the Act, the Census Bureau
proposes to amend Sec. 30.63 of the FTSR to specify the requirement
for reporting the KPC number via the AES for exports of rough diamonds.
The Departments of State, the Treasury, and Homeland Security
concur with the provisions contained in this notice of proposed
rulemaking.
Rulemaking Requirements
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Chief Counsel for Regulation of the Department of Commerce
certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration (SBA) that this rule will not have significant impact on
a substantial number of small entities. This action would require that
U.S. Principal Parties in Interest (USPPIs) or authorized agents in the
United States report the KPC number along with current data filing
requirement to the AES. Only those USPPIs or agents filing information
on exports of rough diamonds would be required to report the KPC
number. The SBA's table of size standards indicates that businesses
that are the USPPI or authorized agent and file export information are
considered small businesses if they employ less than 500 people.
The Census Bureau estimates that approximately 1,600 shipments of
rough diamonds classified under Harmonized System subheadings 7102.10,
7102.21, and 7102.31 were exported from the United States in 2003.
There were on average 47 exporters exporting rough diamonds each month
during 2003. This number of exporters reflects those companies that
actually exported rough diamonds. We do not know the total population
of exporters of rough diamonds. Of the total number of rough diamond
exporters, the number that are small entities also is unknown. The
Census Bureau estimates that it will take 7 seconds to report the KPC
number in AES, which is 10 total burden hours on all exporters. Because
the new requirement imposes only a small burden on affected entities,
this rule would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. Accordingly, a regulatory flexibility
analysis is not required and has not been prepared.
Executive Orders
This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12806. It has been determined that this rule does not
contain policies with Federalism implications as that term is defined
under Executive Order 13132.
Paperwork Reduction Act
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required
to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure
to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), unless that collection of
information displays a current, valid Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number. This rule contains a collection-of-information
subject to the requirements of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and
that has been approved under OMB control number 0607-0152. Since the
KPC number is readily available to the exporting company and the number
of exporting companies affected by this revision is small, there will
only be a minimal net increase (estimated at 10 total burden hours) in
respondent burden. We will request OMB to approve this respondent
burden increase.
