Deployment of the leg-flail airbag system must not introduce injury mechanisms to the seated occupant, or result in injuries that could impede rapid egress. 4. Inadvertent deployment of the legflail airbag system, during the most critical part of the flight, must either meet the requirement of § 25.1309(b), or not cause a hazard to the airplane or its occupants. This also includes preventing inadvertent airbag deployment from a static discharge. 5. The leg-flail airbag system must not impede rapid egress of occupants from the airplane 10 seconds after airbag deployment. 6. The leg-flail airbag system must be protected from lightning and highintensity radiated fields (HIRF). The threats to the airplane specified in existing regulations regarding lightning (§ 25.1316) and HIRF (§ 25.1317) are incorporated by reference for the purpose of measuring lightning and HIRF protection. 7. The leg-flail airbag system must function properly after loss of normal airplane electrical power, and after a transverse separation of the fuselage at the most critical location. A separation at the location of the leg-flail airbag system does not have to be considered. 8. The leg-flail airbag system must not release hazardous quantities of gas, sharp injurious metal fragments, or particulate matter into the cabin. 9. The leg-flail airbag system installation must be protected from the effects of fire such that no hazard to occupants will result. 10. A means must be available to verify the integrity of the leg-flail airbag system’s activation system prior to each flight, or the leg-flail airbag system’s activation system must reliably operate between inspection intervals. The FAA considers that the loss of the leg-flail airbag system’s deployment function alone (i.e., independent of the conditional event that requires the legflail airbag system’s deployment) is a major-failure condition. 11. The airbag inflatable material may not have an average burn rate of greater than 2.5 inches per minute when tested using the horizontal flammability test defined in part 25, appendix F, part I, paragraph (b)(5). 12. The leg-flail airbag system, once deployed, must not adversely affect the emergency-lighting system (i.e., block VerDate Sep<11>2014 14:12 Aug 02, 2016 Jkt 238001 floor-proximity lights to the extent that the lights no longer meet their intended function).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission amended 18 CFR 154.112(a), addressing the filing of ‘‘special rate schedules,’’ reflecting special operating arrangements previously certificated pursuant to part 157 of the Commission’s regulations (such as for the exchange of natural gas).1 As published in the 2015 edition of the Code of Federal Regulations, the final regulations (effective November 3, 2008) contained an error. Order No. 714 revised the fourth, fifth and sixth sentences to reflect new filing requirements. However, the published version of 18 CFR 154.112(a) incorrectly retained language from the earlier version that should have been superseded. The Commission did not intend to retain the superseded sentences. This correcting amendment removes the incorrectly-retained language. This correction does not affect 18 CFR 154.112(b) which remains unchanged.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Airworthiness Directive 2016-14-01, 
Amendment 39-18582 (81 FR 44983, July 12, 2016) (``AD 2016-14-01''), 
currently requires identification of the manufacturer, part number, and 
serial number of the ram air turbine (RAT), and re-identification and 
modification of the RAT if necessary, for certain Airbus Model A330-200 
Freighter series airplanes; Model A330-200 and A330-300 series 
airplanes; Model A340-200 and A340-300 series airplanes; Model A340-500 
series airplanes; and Model A340-600 series airplanes.

Need for the Correction

    As published, table 1 to paragraph (j) of the regulatory text 
contains typographical errors in two part numbers. Table 1 to paragraph 
(j) of the AD incorrectly refers to RAT P/Ns 1720934C and 1720934D. 
Those part numbers should have been 1702934C and 1702934D.

Correction of Publication

    This document corrects an error and correctly adds the AD as an 
amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the preamble or 
regulatory information has been corrected, we are publishing the entire 
rule in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains August 16, 2016.
    Since this action only corrects typographical errors, it has no 
adverse economic impact and imposes no additional burden on any person. 
Therefore, we have determined that notice and public procedures are 
unnecessary.
