Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is deleting a system of records entitled ``Center for Minority Veterans Management Information System-VA'' (95VA00M), which was established at 64 FR 23900, dated May 4, 1999. The system was to maintain an automated database containing demographic data on veterans that the Center may use to analyze trends on how VA serves minority veterans. This system of records is being deleted because this program was never active in the Center for Minority Veterans and the records were never collected. When requested, the Department's Office of Policy, Preparedness and Planning has the appropriate personnel, knowledge and ability to provide statistical analysis of minority veterans' utilization of VA business lines for the CMV to meet its mission.

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 747-400, 747-400D, and 747-400F Series Airplanes
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 747-400, 747-400D, and 747-400F series airplanes. For all airplanes, this proposed AD would require installing new pump control and time delay relays, doing related investigative and corrective actions if necessary, and changing the wiring for the center and main fuel tanks override/jettison fuel pumps; and, for certain airplanes, installing new relays and wiring for the horizontal stabilizer override/jettison fuel pumps. This proposed AD would also require a revision to the maintenance program to incorporate Airworthiness Limitation No. 28-AWL-24 and No. 28-AWL-26. For certain airplanes, this proposed AD would also require installing an automatic shutoff system for the horizontal stabilizer tank fuel pumps and installing a new integrated display system. This proposed AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer. We are proposing this AD to prevent uncommanded operation of certain override/ jettison pumps which could cause overheat, electrical arcs, or frictional sparks, and could lead to an ignition source inside a fuel tank. This condition, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.
