certain commercial products (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘covered products’’).1 In
addition to specifying a list of covered
residential and commercial products,
EPCA contains provisions that enable
the Secretary of Energy to classify
additional types of consumer products
as covered products. (42 U.S.C.
6292(a)(20)) DOE may prescribe test
procedures for any product it classifies
as a ‘‘covered product.’’ (42 U.S.C.

Airworthiness Directives; Fokker
Services B.V. Model F.28 Airplanes
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
We propose to supersede
Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2000–17–
03 that applies to all Fokker Services
B.V. Model F.28 Mark 0100 airplanes.
AD 2000–17–03 currently requires a
one-time visual inspection and
repetitive eddy current and dye
penetrant inspections of the nose
landing gear (NLG) main fitting to detect
cracking of the NLG main fitting
subassembly, and corrective actions if
necessary. Since we issued AD 2000–
17–03, we were advised that
replacement of certain nose landing gear
(NLG) units eliminates the need for
repetitive inspections. This proposed
AD would retain existing requirements,
require installation a new part number
NLG unit that would terminate the
repetitive inspections, and add
airplanes to the applicability. We are
proposing this AD to prevent cracking of
the NLG main fitting, which could lead
to collapse of the NLG during takeoff
and landing, and possible injury to the
flight crew and passengers.
DATES: We must receive comments on
this proposed AD by April 14, 2014.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments by
any of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to
https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
• Fax: (202) 493–2251.
• Mail: U.S. Department of
Transportation, Docket Operations, M–

W12–140, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE.,

• Hand Delivery: Deliver to Mail
address above between 9 a.m. and 5
p.m., Monday through Friday, except
Federal holidays.

Discussion
On August 17, 2000, we issued AD
2000–17–03, Amendment 39–11876 (65
FR 52298, August 29, 2000). AD 2000–
17–03 requires actions intended to
address an unsafe condition on Fokker
Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 0100
airplanes.
Since we issued AD 2000–17–03,
Amendment 39–11876 (65 FR 52298,
August 29, 2000), we received a report
of a NLG main fitting failure. The
