The NPRM action invites comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of the proposed AD. 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA–2007–29336; Directorate Identifier 2007–NM–143–AD] RIN 2120–AA64 Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A300, A310, and A300–600 Series Airplanes Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

FDMS is a government-wide, electronic docket management system, which contains the public dockets and is the method used for submitting comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of proposed rulemaking actions. However, due to the service disruption caused by the transition from DOT’s DMS to the PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 FDMS, the docket material was not posted on the FDMS until November 1, 2007. Therefore, we have determined that the public was not provided adequate opportunity to submit comments on the NPRM. As a result, we have decided to reopen the comment period for 30 days to receive additional comments. No part of the regulatory information has been changed; therefore, the NPRM is not republished in the Federal Register. Comments Due Date We must receive comments on this AD action by December 20, 2007. Issued in Renton, Washington, on November 8, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39 with a 
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for an AD for all Airbus Model 
A300, A310, and A300-600 series airplanes. The NPRM was published in 
the Federal Register on September 28, 2007 (72 FR 55124). The NPRM 
proposed to require revising the Emergency Procedures sections of the 
airplane flight manuals to advise the flightcrew of new procedures for 
emergency evacuation. The NPRM action invites comments on the overall 
regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of the proposed 
AD.

Actions Since NPRM Was Issued

    Since we issued the NPRM, the DOT's Docket Management System (DMS) 
was replaced by the Federal Docket Management System (FDMS). FDMS is a 
government-wide, electronic docket management system, which contains 
the public dockets and is the method used for submitting comments on 
the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of 
proposed rulemaking actions. However, due to the service disruption 
caused by the transition from DOT's DMS to the FDMS, the docket 
material was not posted on the FDMS until November 1, 2007. Therefore, 
we have determined that the public was not provided adequate 
opportunity to submit comments on the NPRM. As a result, we have 
decided to reopen the comment period for 30 days to receive additional 
comments.
    No part of the regulatory information has been changed; therefore, 
the NPRM is not republished in the Federal Register.

Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments on this AD action by December 20, 2007.

    Issued in Renton, Washington, on November 8, 2007.

Manager, Transport Airplane Directorate, Aircraft Certification
