SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC)
Model 390 airplanes. This AD requires
you to inspect hydraulic pump pressure
output hose assemblies to determine if
they are from the affected lots, inspect
for hydraulic fluid leaks if the hose
assemblies are from the affected lots,
and replace all affected hose assemblies.
This AD results from reports of
hydraulic leaks from the hydraulic
pump pressure output hose assemblies.
We are issuing this AD to prevent
leakage of hydraulic fluid from the
pump output hose within the engine
compartment, which could result in an
in-flight fire.
DATES: This AD becomes effective on
November 3, 2008.
On November 3, 2008, the Director of
the Federal Register approved the
incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD.
We must receive any comments on
this AD by December 23, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We received reports of hydraulic leaks
from the hydraulic pump pressure
output hose assemblies delivered to
HBC. These assemblies were specially
designed for use on the Model 390
airplanes and delivered only to HBC.
Subsequent investigation revealed that a
particular lot of hoses were thermally
damaged during the manufacturing
extrusion process. Parker’s Stratoflex
Products division discovered that some
hose assemblies delivered to HBC for
the Model 390 airplanes were in the
thermally damaged lot of hoses.
This condition, if not corrected, could
result in leakage of hydraulic fluid from
the pump output hose within the engine
compartment, which could cause an inflight fire.

Revision
Date
Relevant Service Information
We reviewed Hawker Beechcraft
Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 29–3897,
dated August 2008. The service
information describes procedures for
inspection for suspect hydraulic pump
pressure output hose assemblies and
replacement of hose assemblies if
necessary.
FAA’s Determination and Requirements
of This AD
We are issuing this AD because we
evaluated all the information and
determined the unsafe condition
described previously is likely to exist or
develop on other products of the same
type design. This AD requires
inspection for suspect hydraulic pump
pressure output hose assemblies and
replacement of hose assemblies if
necessary.
FAA’s Determination of the Effective
Date
An unsafe condition exists that
requires the immediate adoption of this
AD. The FAA has found that the risk to
the flying public justifies waiving notice
and comment prior to adoption of this
rule because leakage of hydraulic fluid
from the pump output hose within the
engine compartment could result in an
in-flight fire. Therefore, we determined
that notice and opportunity for public
comment before issuing this AD are
impracticable and that good cause exists
for making this amendment effective in
fewer than 30 days.
Comments Invited
This AD is a final rule that involves
requirements affecting flight safety, and
we did not precede it by notice and an
opportunity for public comment. We
invite you to send any written relevant
data, views, or arguments regarding this
AD. Send your comments to an address
listed under the ADDRESSES section.
Include the docket number ‘‘FAA–
2008–1127; Directorate Identifier 2008–
CE–061–AD’’ at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite
comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy
aspects of the AD. We will consider all
comments received by the closing date

comments.
We will post all comments we
receive, without change, to https://
www.regulations.gov, including any
personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each
substantive verbal contact we receive
concerning this AD.
Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code
specifies the FAA’s authority to issue
rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I,
Section 106, describes the authority of
the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII,
Aviation Programs, describes in more
detail the scope of the Agency’s
authority.
We are issuing this rulemaking under
the authority described in Subtitle VII,
Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701,
‘‘General requirements.’’ Under that
section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in
air commerce by prescribing regulations
for practices, methods, and procedures
the Administrator finds necessary for
safety in air commerce. This regulation
is within the scope of that authority
because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on
products identified in this rulemaking
action.
Regulatory Findings
We determined that this AD will not
have federalism implications under
Executive Order 13132. This AD will
not have a substantial direct effect 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.
For the reasons discussed above, I
certify that this AD:
(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) 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.
We prepared a regulatory evaluation
of the estimated costs to comply with
this AD and placed it in the AD docket.
Examining the AD Docket
You may examine the AD docket that
contains the AD, the regulatory
evaluation, any comments received, and
other information on the Internet at
https://www.regulations.gov; or in person
at the Docket Management Facility
between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday
through Friday, except Federal holidays.
The Docket Office (telephone (800) 647–
5527) is located at the street address
stated in the ADDRESSES section.
Comments will be available in the AD
docket shortly after receipt.

SUMMARY: The Commodity Futures
Trading Commission (‘‘Commission’’) is
amending its Rules of Practice and
Rules Relating to Reparation
Proceedings, respectively, to
standardize service and filing by
electronic means. The amendments also
revise rules regarding formatting
requirements of reparations documents
filed with the Proceedings Clerk.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Personal
delivery and delivery by U.S. mail are
the manners of filing and service
authorized in proceedings under 17 CFR
Part 12. Since 1998, Part 10 of the
Commission Rules has provided an
additional means—service by fax. Up to
now, neither Parts 10 nor 12 have
provided for service by e-mail. In
keeping with the demands of today’s
world, and especially in light of
cautionary measures used in the postSeptember 11 climate that have slowed
incoming mail to the agency, the
Commission proposes to authorize fax
and e-mail as additional manners of
filing and service, to: (1) Avoid undue
delay; (2) take advantage of
technological developments, which will
be faster and less costly than the mails;
and (3) streamline procedures.
The Commission and the federal
government overall are engaged in
ongoing efforts to use technology to
increase efficiency. Since March 2000,
the Commission has allowed customers,
clients of Commission registrants and

commodity pool participants to sign
electronically certain documents
required under the Commodity
Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’), 7 U.S.C. 1 et seq.
and Commission Rules. See, e.g., 17
CFR 1.3(tt) and 1.4 (rules dealing with
electronic signatures). In May 2000, the
Office of Management and Budget
issued a Guide on Implementation of
the Government Paperwork Elimination
Act (‘‘GPEA’’) at 65 FR 255508, 2000
WL 517619. More recently, on July 25,
2007, the Commission, acting on a
request made by the National Futures
Association (‘‘NFA’’), amended 17 CFR
171.9(b) to allow for service by fax and
e-mail in appeals from NFA actions.
Thus, the amendments complement
existing Commission Rules and
government policy dealing with
electronic submissions.
All of the amendments under Parts 10
and 12 make filing and service by fax
and e-mail effective upon transmission.
While authorizing these electronic
means of filing and service, the
Commission wishes to make clear that
these options may be used on a case-bycase basis at the discretion of the
Presiding Officer, with the parties’
consent. Signed documents filed or
served by electronic means must be in
PDF or other non-alterable form. With
respect to Part 12, when a document to
be filed requires the concurrent
submission of a filing fee, filing is not
complete until the fee has been paid.
See Commission Rule 12.25.
The Part 12 amended rules also allow
filing and service by commercial
package delivery service, which is
already allowed under the Part 10 rules.
To harmonize Parts 10 and 12, when
documents are served by mail, the
length of time within which a party
being served in a Part 10 proceeding
may respond is extended from three (3)
extra days as Part 10 currently provides,
to five (5) extra days, as provided in Part
12.
The amendments affect the Rules’
provisions respecting service upon
parties by the Proceedings Clerk on
behalf of the Commission, i.e.,
Commission Rules 10.12(b) and
12.10(a)(3), providing that the
