Pistachios Grown in California; Recommended Decision and Opportunity To File Written Exceptions to Proposed Amendment of Marketing Order No. 983
This is a recommended decision regarding proposed amendments to Marketing Agreement and Order No. 983 (order), which regulates the handling of pistachios grown in California. The amendments were proposed by the Administrative Committee for Pistachios (Committee), which is responsible for local administration of the order. The proposed amendments would: Expand the production area covered under the order to include Arizona and New Mexico in addition to California; authorize the Committee to reimburse handlers for a portion of their inspection and certification costs in certain situations; authorize the Committee to recommend research projects; modify existing order authorities concerning aflatoxin and quality regulations; modify the authority for interhandler transfers of order obligations; redesignate several sections of the order; remove previously suspended order provisions, and make other related changes. The amendments are intended to improve the operation and functioning of the marketing order program. This recommended decision invites written exceptions on the proposed amendments. This rule also announces AMS's intention to request approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) of a new information collection.
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney (PW) JT9D-7R4 Series Turbofan Engines
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for PW JT9D-7R4 series turbofan engines. That AD currently requires removing certain reduced cooling flow 2nd stage high-pressure turbine (HPT) vane assemblies installed in certain 2nd stage HPT vane cluster assemblies. It also requires a visual and a fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI) of the 2nd stage HPT air seal assembly, part number (P/N) 815097. This AD requires a visual and FPI of all P/N 2nd stage HPT air seal assemblies that were used with reduced cooling flow 2nd stage HPT vane assemblies. This AD results from PW identifying additional P/N air seal assemblies that are affected by the unsafe condition. We are issuing this AD to prevent uncontained failure of the 2nd stage HPT air seal assembly, leading to engine in-flight shutdown and damage to the airplane.
Substances Prohibited From Use in Animal Food or Feed; Confirmation of Effective Date of Final Rule; Correction
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a final rule; confirmation of effective date, that appeared in the Federal Register of Friday, April 24, 2009 (74 FR 18626) (the April 24, 2009, final rule; confirmation of effective date). That document had confirmed the effective date of April 27, 2009, for a final rule that published in the Federal Register of April 25, 2008 (73 FR 22720), entitled ``Substances Prohibited From Use in Animal Food or Feed.'' In the April 24, 2009, final rule; confirmation of effective date, the agency also established a compliance date of October 26, 2009, in order to allow additional time for renderers to comply with the new requirements. The April 24, 2009, final rule; confirmation of effective date was published with an inadvertent error in the ``Background'' section. This document corrects that error.

The Board believes that clarification is needed regarding compliance with certain aspects of the final rule. Accordingly, in order to facilitate compliance, the Board proposes to amend specific portions of the regulations and official staff commentary.
