ACTION:
SUMMARY: We are reopening the
comment period for our proposed rule
that would remove the current ambient
temperature requirements in the Animal
Welfare Act regulations for various
stages in the transportation of live
animals other than marine mammals.
The proposal would replace those
requirements with a single performance
standard for climatic and environmental
conditions during their transportation.
This action will allow interested
persons additional time to prepare and
submit comments.
DATES: We will consider all comments
that we receive on or before April 17,
2008.

Docket No. 99–014–2) a proposal to
remove the current ambient temperature
requirements in the Animal Welfare Act
regulations for various stages in the
transportation of live animals other than
marine mammals. The proposal would
replace those requirements with a single
performance standard under which the
animals would be transported under
climatic and environmental conditions
that are appropriate for their welfare.
Comments on the proposed rule were
required to be received on or before

Airworthiness Directives; Dassault
Model Falcon 2000EX and 900EX
Airplanes
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. This proposed
AD results from mandatory continuing
airworthiness information (MCAI)
originated by an aviation authority of
another country to identify and correct
an unsafe condition on an aviation
product. The MCAI describes the unsafe
condition as:
On early FALCON airplanes featuring the
EASy cockpit, a new oxygen controller has
been installed. An internal review has
determined that the passenger oxygen mask
boxes do not fit this new controller. In
OVERRIDE mode, that is to say, when the
internal pressure reducer is by-passed,
oxygen (O2) flow is nominal, while in
NORMAL mode O2 flow is reduced by half
compared to what it should be.
Consequently, in NORMAL mode the
minimum mass flow of supplemental O2 for
each passenger, as required by Certification
Specifications, is no longer met. This could
lead to passenger incommodation due to
insufficient body oxygenation.
The unsafe condition is incorrectly
fitted passenger oxygen mask boxes for
the new controllers, which could result
in incapacitation of passengers due to
insufficient oxygen in the event of rapid
depressurization of the airplane when
the controller is in NORMAL mode. The
proposed AD would require actions that
are intended to address the unsafe
condition described in the MCAI.
DATES: We must receive comments on
this proposed AD by April 17, 2008.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments by
