an ARAC meeting to be held at the Best

is being held to review and receive
public comments on changes made to
the notice of proposed rulemaking and

on April 18, 2006 (74 FR 19928).
The agenda for the meeting is as

(71 FR 19928), and its accompanying
initial regulatory evaluation, which may
be found in Docket FAA–2006–24281.
• Oral presentation of public
comments.
Background
The FAA received extensive
comments on the Widespread Fatigue
Damage (WFD) notice of proposed
rulemaking (74 FR19928) and on the
estimated costs and benefits of that
proposed rule specified in its
accompanying regulatory evaluation,
which may be found in the docket.
Based on those comments, and on our
analysis of those comments, we have
developed a technical document that
suggests changes to both the proposed
rule and to the assumptions made in our
initial regulatory evaluation. Those
changes could decrease the estimated
cost of the proposed rule from $360
million to $4 million in present value.
Comment Period
To allow the public to comment on
the technical document we are
reopening the comment period. We have
posted it in the docket for the
Widespread Fatigue Damage rulemaking
(FAA–2006–24281) with the title
‘‘Technical Document—Aging Aircraft
Program: Widespread Fatigue Damage.’’
A period of public comment on that
document begins with publication of
this notice in the Federal Register and
ends on December 22, 2008. Public
comments may be posted to the docket
at any time during the comment period
by following any of the means of posting
comments listed in the ADDRESSES
section of this document. In addition, as
discussed below, we invite attendance
at the public meeting of ARAC on
Transport Airplane and Engine Issues
on December 11, 2008, where people
may make comments in person. If you
are posting comments to the docket and
would like us to address them at the
meeting, it would help us if you would
post those comments by December 1.
All comments posted to the docket will
be considered, but we may not be able
to address late-posted comments at the
meeting.
Participation at the Meeting
The purpose of the meeting of the
Transport Airplane and Engine Issues
Group on December 11, 2008, is to
discuss the technical document and the
effect our analysis could have on the
proposed rule and initial regulatory
evaluation for Widespread Fatigue
Damage. The public is invited to make

advance for time to do this at the
meeting. We should receive requests
from persons who wish to present oral
statements at the meeting no later than
December 1, 2008. Requests to speak
should include a written summary of
oral remarks to be presented and an
estimate of time needed for the
presentation. An agenda of speakers will
be available at the meeting. The names
of those individuals who make their
request to present oral statements after
the date specified above may not appear
on the written agenda. To accommodate
as many speakers as possible, the
amount of time allocated to each
speaker may be less than the amount of
time requested. Persons requiring
audiovisual equipment should notify
the FAA when requesting to be placed
on the agenda.
Public Meeting Procedures
The FAA will use the following
procedures to facilitate the meeting:
(1) There will be no admission fee or
other charge to attend or to participate
in the meeting. The meeting will be
open to all persons who are scheduled
to attend or present statements or who
register between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. on
the day of the meeting. While the FAA
will make every effort to accommodate
all persons wishing to participate,
admission will be subject to availability
of space in the meeting room. Advising
us in advance if you’re planning to
attend the meeting will help us plan for
adequate room to accommodate those
who wish to attend. The meeting may
adjourn early if scheduled speakers
complete their statements in less time
than is scheduled for the meeting.
(2) An individual presenting oral
remarks, whether speaking in a personal
capacity or as a representative of an
organization, may be limited to a 10minute statement. If possible, we will
notify the speaker if additional time is
available.
(3) We will try to accommodate all
speakers. If the available time does not
permit this, speakers generally will be
scheduled on a first-come-first-served
basis. However, the FAA reserves the
right to exclude some speakers if
necessary to present a balance of
viewpoints and issues.
(4) If you need assistance or require a
reasonable accommodation for the
meeting or meeting documents, please
contact Annette Kovite, listed in the FOR

discretion of the participant.
(8) Statements made by FAA
representatives are intended to facilitate
discussion of the issues or to clarify
issues. Any statement made during the
meeting by an FAA representative is not
intended to be, and should not be
construed as, a position of the FAA.
(9) The meeting is designed to solicit
public views and gather additional
information on the rulemaking.
Therefore, the meeting will be
conducted in an informal and nonadversarial manner. No individual will

The meeting may adjourn early if scheduled speakers complete their
statements in less time than is scheduled for the meeting.
(2) An individual presenting oral remarks, whether speaking in a
personal capacity or as a representative of an organization, may be
limited to a 10-minute statement. If possible, we will notify the
speaker if additional time is available.
(3) We will try to accommodate all speakers. If the available time
does not permit this, speakers generally will be scheduled on a first-
come-first-served basis. However, the FAA reserves the right to exclude
some speakers if necessary to present a balance of viewpoints and
issues.
(4) If you need assistance or require a reasonable accommodation
for the meeting or meeting documents, please contact Annette Kovite,
listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. Sign and oral
interpretation can be made available at the meeting, as well as an
assistive listening device, if requested by December 1, 2008.
(5) The committee's Assistant Chair for Transport Airplane and
Engine Issues will preside over the meeting. The Designated Federal
Official and a panel of FAA personnel involved in this rulemaking will
be present to address the technical document and questions and comments
presented.
(6) The meeting will be recorded by a court reporter. A transcript
of the meeting and any material accepted by the FAA representatives
during the meeting will be included in the public docket. Any person
who is interested in purchasing a copy of the transcript should contact
the court reporter directly. Additional transcript purchase information
will be available at the meeting.
(7) The FAA will review and consider all material presented by
participants at the meeting. Position papers or material presenting
views or arguments related to the rulemaking may be accepted at the
discretion of the presiding officer and subsequently placed in the
public docket. We request that persons participating in the meeting
provide enough copies of all materials for distribution to the
committee and FAA representatives; other copies may be provided to the
audience at the discretion of the participant.
(8) Statements made by FAA representatives are intended to
facilitate discussion of the issues or to clarify issues. Any statement
made during the meeting by an FAA representative is not intended to be,
and should not be construed as, a position of the FAA.
(9) The meeting is designed to solicit public views and gather
additional information on the rulemaking. Therefore, the meeting will
be conducted in an informal and non-adversarial manner. No individual
will be subject to cross-examination by any other participant; however,
FAA representatives may ask questions to clarify a statement and to
ensure a complete and accurate record.
Issued in Washington, DC, on November 3, 2008.
