List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation
safety, Safety.
Adoption of the Amendment
Effective Date
(a) This airworthiness directive (AD)
becomes effective April 27, 2009.
Affected ADs
(b) None.
Applicability
(c) This AD applies to Rolls-Royce
Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) BR700–
715A1–30, BR700–715B1–30, and BR700–
715C1–30 turbofan engines. These engines
are installed on, but not limited to,
McDonnell Douglas Model 717–200
airplanes.
Accordingly, under the authority
delegated to me by the Administrator,
the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as
follows:
■
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
2009–07–01 Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd &
Co KG (formerly BMW Rolls-Royce
GmbH, formerly BMW Rolls-Royce Aero
Engines): Amendment 39–15860. Docket
No. FAA–2008–0224; Directorate
Identifier 2007-NE–44-AD.
[Amended]
2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding
the following new AD:
■
Reason
(d) It is necessary to change the limits of
the High Pressure (HP) Turbine Stage 1 and
Stage 2 Rotor Discs. The maximum approved
life of these discs is decreased for all flight
missions.
This Emergency Airworthiness Directive
(EAD) has been raised to instruct mandatory
decreased maximum approved lives in the
High Pressure (HP) Turbine Stage 1 Rotor Disc
BR715 Time Limits Manual (TLM) T–715–
3BR for the HP Turbine Stage 1 Rotor Disc
for both Part No. BRH20130 and Part No.
BRH20131 and of the High Pressure (HP)
Turbine Stage 2 Rotor Disc for both Part No.
BRH19423 and Part No. BRH19427 for all
flight missions. The life limits are decreased
by the same proportion for all flight missions,
thus back to birth pro-rata calculations due
to the life limit changes are not necessary.
We are issuing this AD to prevent rotating
parts that may have exceeded their low-cycle
fatigue life limits from failing, which could
result in uncontained engine failure and
subsequent damage to the airplane.
Actions and Compliance
(e) No later than 30 days after the effective
date of this AD the following mandatory
actions need to be completed for each
individual BR700–715 HP Turbine Stage 1
Rotor Disc for both Part No. BRH20130 and
Part No. BRH20131 and High Pressure (HP)
Turbine Stage 2 Rotor Disc for both Part No.
BRH19423 and Part No. BRH19427 installed
in a BR700–715A1–30, B1–30 or C1–30

ACTION: Notice of effective date.
SUMMARY: NOAA published final
revised management plans and revised
regulations for the Gulf of the
Farallones, Cordell Bank, and Monterey
Bay national marine sanctuaries
(GFNMS, CBNMS, and MBNMS
respectively) on November 20, 2008 (73
FR 70488). Under the National Marine
Sanctuaries Act, the final regulations
would automatically take effect after 45
days of continuous session of Congress
beginning from November 20, 2008.
(Given the break in the 110th Congress,
the period was reset and began again
with the 111th Congress. For purposes
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 217001
of this action, the 45 days of continuous
session of Congress ended on March 9,
2009.) The period allows a governor for
a state affected by modified term(s) of
designation to certify to the Secretary of
Commerce (Secretary) whether any of
the modified terms of designation are
unacceptable, and if such a term is
certified as unacceptable, it does not
take effect in the area of the national
marine sanctuary lying within the
seaward boundary of the State. During
the 45-day period, the Governor of
California sent a letter to the Secretary
conditionally objecting to certain
provisions of the regulations within
state waters of California. The Governor
conditionally objected to the portions of
the regulations that would have
prohibited the introduction of
introduced species in state waters of the
GFNMS and MBNMS. Through this
notice, NOAA is announcing the
regulations for the CBNMS and GFNMS
became effective on March 9, 2009 in
their entirety; and the regulations for the
MBNMS also became effective on March
9, 2009, except the one prohibiting the
introduction of introduced species in
the state waters of MBNMS; and it will
initiate a process to consider making the
Governor’s requested changes to the
introduced species regulation in
GFNMS.
DATES: The regulations published on
November 20, 2008 (73 FR 70488) are
effective March 19, 2009 and applicable
on March 9, 2009.

Armor, NOAA Office of National Marine
Sanctuaries, 301–713–7234.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
NOAA published final revised
management plans and revised
regulations for the GFNMS, CBNMS,
and MBNMS on November 20, 2008 (73
FR 70488). Section 304(b) of the NMSA
provides the Governor with 45 days of
continuous session of Congress
(beginning on the day on which the
final regulations were published) to
review the terms of designation (or
changes thereto). After this period the
regulations would become final and take
effect, except that any new or modified
term of designation the Governor
certified as unacceptable would not take
effect in state waters of the sanctuary.
Governor’s Objection to the Regulations
of Introduced Species
NOAA’s regulations would have,
among other things, prohibited the
introduction of introduced species into
the sanctuaries with exceptions for
striped bass caught and released during
PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
fishing and current state-permitted
mariculture activities in Tomales Bay
(part of GFNMS). The prohibition
against introducing species is intended
to prevent injury to sanctuary resources
and qualities, to protect the biodiversity
of sanctuary ecosystems, and to preserve
the native functional aspects of
sanctuary ecosystems, which are put at
risk by introduced species. Introduced
species may become a new form of
predator, competitor, disturber, parasite,
or disease that can have devastating
effects upon ecosystems. For example,
introduced species impacts on native
coastal marine species of the GFNMS,
MBNMS, and CBNMS could include:
replacement of a functionally similar
native species through competition;
reduction in abundance or elimination
of an entire population of a native
species, which can affect native species
richness; inhibition of normal growth or
increased mortality of the host and
associated species; increased intra- or
interspecies competition with native
species; creation or alteration of original
substrate and habitat; hybridization
with native species; and direct or
indirect toxicity (e.g., toxic diatoms).
Changes in species interactions can lead
to disrupted nutrient cycles and altered
energy flows that ripple with
unpredictable results through an entire
ecosystem. Introduced species may also
pose threats to endangered species and
native species diversity.
On December 23, 2008, the Governor
of California sent a letter to the
Secretary of Commerce conditionally
objecting to the revised terms of
designation that would have allowed
NOAA to issue regulations prohibiting
the introduction of introduced species
in the state waters of the GFNMS and
MBNMS.1 The Governor conditioned
his objection to the revised terms of
designation on NOAA’s willingness and
ability to modify these regulations to
exempt all state-permitted aquaculture
activities in MBNMS and GFNMS and
research involving the introduction of
introduced species into MBNMS.
After receiving the letter from the
Governor, NOAA worked with the
California Resources Agency and the
California Department of Fish and Game
to find a mutually agreeable solution to
the Governor’s concerns. In a letter
dated March 2, 2009, the Acting
Secretary of Commerce, Otto J. Wolff,
replied to the Governor by: (1) Offering
to immediately propose exemptions for
introduced species cultivated in state1 The final regulations for CBNMS also included
a prohibition on the introduction of introduced
species. That prohibition, however, is not subject to
gubernatorial objection since CBNMS does not
include state waters.
