Report SE–623 at issue 15 (hereafter referred to as ‘ALS Part 2’ in this [EASA] AD). Discussion On October 30, 2012, we issued AD 2012–22–15, Amendment 39–17252 (77 FR 68063, November 15, 2012) (‘‘AD 2012–22–15’’). AD 2012–22–15 requires actions intended to address an unsafe condition on all Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 airplanes. Since we issued AD 2012–22–15, we received Fokker Services Engineering Reports that consist of new and more restrictive airworthiness limitations (ALS). The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness Directive AD 2016–0125, dated June 21, 2016 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition for all Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 airplanes. The MCAI states: You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at https:// www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA–2016– 9435. Fokker Services recently published issue 15 of Engineering Report SE–623, containing Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALIs) and Safe Life Items (SLIs). This report is Part 2 of the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS Part 2) of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, referred to in Section 06, Appendix 1, of the Fokker 70/100 Maintenance Review Board document. The complete ALS currently consists of: Part 1—Report SE–473, Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMRs)— reference: EASA AD 2015–0027 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2016–11–22, Amendment 39–18549 (81 FR 36438, June 7, 2016)]. Part 2—Report SE–623, ALIs and SLIs— reference: EASA AD 2014–0224 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2012–22–15], and Part 3—Report SE–672, Fuel ALIs and CDCCLs—reference: EASA AD 2015–0032 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2016–11–15, Amendment 39–18542 (81 FR 36447, June 7, 2016)]. The instructions contained in those reports have been identified as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness. Failure to accomplish these actions could result in an unsafe condition. EASA previously issued AD 2014–0224, requiring the actions described in ALS Part 1 (report SE–473 issue 10), Part 2 (report SE– 623 issue 13) and Part 3 (report SE–672 issue 4). Since that [EASA] AD was issued, ALS Part 1 was revised (SE–473 issue 11) and EASA issued AD 2015–0027 accordingly. ALS Part 3 was also revised (SE–672 issue 5) and EASA issued AD 2015–0032 accordingly. For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains part of the requirements of [EASA] AD 2014–0224, which is superseded, and requires implementation of the maintenance actions as specified in ALS Part 2 of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, Fokker Services Engineering PO 00000 Frm 00021 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 Fokker Services B.V. has issued Fokker Services B.V. Engineering Report SE–623, ‘‘Fokker 70/100 ALI’s and SLI’s,’’ Issue 16, issued June 3, 2016. The service information describes new and more restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. This service information is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections). Compliance with these actions is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the areas addressed by this AD, the operator may not be able to accomplish the actions described in the revisions. In this situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request approval for an alternative method of compliance according to paragraph (m)(1) of this AD. The request should include a description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure the continued operational safety of the airplane. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this proposed AD affects 15 airplanes of U.S. registry. The actions required by AD 2012–22– 15, and retained in this proposed AD, take about 1 work-hour per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per workhour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that are E:\FR\FM\16DEP1.SGM 16DEP1 91070 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 242 / Friday, December 16, 2016 / Proposed Rules required by AD 2012–22–15 is $85 per product. We also estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour per product to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $1,275, or $85 per product. asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS Authority for This Rulemaking Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA’s authority to issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. ‘‘Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs,’’ describes in more detail the scope of the Agency’s authority. We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in ‘‘Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General requirements.’’ Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. Regulatory Findings We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed regulation: 1. Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; 2. Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under the DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and 4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

ACTION: Proposed rule. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is proposing a regulation to identify an initial list of bulk drug substances that can be used to compound drug products in accordance with certain compounding provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act), although they are neither the subject of an applicable United States Pharmacopeia (USP) or National Formulary (NF) monograph nor components of FDA-approved drugs. Specifically, the Agency proposes to place six bulk drug substances on the list. This proposed rule also identifies four bulk drug substances that FDA has considered and proposes not to include on the list. Additional substances nominated by the public for inclusion on this list are currently under consideration and will be the subject of a future rulemaking.

Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-22-
15 for all Fokker Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 
airplanes. AD 2012-22-15 currently requires revising the maintenance 
program to incorporate the limitations, tasks, thresholds, and 
intervals specified in certain revised Fokker maintenance review board 
(MRB) documents. Since we issued AD 2012-22-15, we received new 
revisions of airworthiness limitations items (ALI) documents, which 
introduce new and more restrictive maintenance requirements and 
airworthiness limitations. This proposed AD would require revising the 
maintenance or inspection program to incorporate new maintenance 
requirements and airworthiness limitations. We are proposing this AD to 
prevent the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 30, 
2017.

Discussion

    On October 30, 2012, we issued AD 2012-22-15, Amendment 39-17252 
(77 FR 68063, November 15, 2012) (``AD 2012-22-15''). AD 2012-22-15 
requires actions intended to address an unsafe condition on all Fokker 
Services B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2012-22-15, we received Fokker Services 
Engineering Reports that consist of new and more restrictive 
airworthiness limitations (ALS).
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA 
Airworthiness Directive AD 2016-0125, dated June 21, 2016 (referred to 
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or 
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Fokker Services 
B.V. Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Fokker Services recently published issue 15 of Engineering 
Report SE-623, containing Airworthiness Limitation Items (ALIs) and 
Safe Life Items (SLIs). This report is Part 2 of the Airworthiness 
Limitations Section (ALS Part 2) of the Instructions for Continued 
Airworthiness, referred to in Section 06, Appendix 1, of the Fokker 
70/100 Maintenance Review Board document.
    The complete ALS currently consists of:
    Part 1--Report SE-473, Certification Maintenance Requirements 
(CMRs)--reference: EASA AD 2015-0027 [which corresponds to FAA AD 
2016-11-22, Amendment 39-18549 (81 FR 36438, June 7, 2016)].
    Part 2--Report SE-623, ALIs and SLIs--reference: EASA AD 2014-
0224 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2012-22-15], and
    Part 3--Report SE-672, Fuel ALIs and CDCCLs--reference: EASA AD 
2015-0032 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2016-11-15, Amendment 39-
18542 (81 FR 36447, June 7, 2016)].
    The instructions contained in those reports have been identified 
as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness. Failure to 
accomplish these actions could result in an unsafe condition.
    EASA previously issued AD 2014-0224, requiring the actions 
described in ALS Part 1 (report SE-473 issue 10), Part 2 (report SE-
623 issue 13) and Part 3 (report SE-672 issue 4). Since that [EASA] 
AD was issued, ALS Part 1 was revised (SE-473 issue 11) and EASA 
issued AD 2015-0027 accordingly. ALS Part 3 was also revised (SE-672 
issue 5) and EASA issued AD 2015-0032 accordingly.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains part of 
the requirements of [EASA] AD 2014-0224, which is superseded, and 
requires implementation of the maintenance actions as specified in 
ALS Part 2 of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, Fokker 
Services Engineering Report SE-623 at issue 15 (hereafter referred 
to as `ALS Part 2' in this [EASA] AD).

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2016-
9435.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Fokker Services B.V. has issued Fokker Services B.V. Engineering 
Report SE-623, ``Fokker 70/100 ALI's and SLI's,'' Issue 16, issued June 
3, 2016. The service information describes new and more restrictive 
maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. This service 
information is reasonably available because the interested parties have 
access to it through their normal course of business or by the means 
identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another 
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant 
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have 
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service 
information referenced above. We are proposing this AD because we 
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition 
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same 
type design.
    This proposed AD would require revisions to certain operator 
maintenance documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections). 
Compliance with these actions is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For 
airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in 
the areas addressed by this AD, the operator may not be able to 
accomplish the actions described in the revisions. In this situation, 
to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request approval for 
an alternative method of compliance according to paragraph (m)(1) of 
this AD. The request should include a description of changes to the 
required inspections that will ensure the continued operational safety 
of the airplane.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 15 airplanes of U.S. 
registry.
    The actions required by AD 2012-22-15, and retained in this 
proposed AD, take about 1 work-hour per product, at an average labor 
rate of $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost 
of the actions that are

[[Page 91070]]

required by AD 2012-22-15 is $85 per product.
    We also estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour per product 
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average 
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate 
the cost of this proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $1,275, or $85 per 
product.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to 
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the 
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation 
Programs,'' describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's 
authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in 
``Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: General 
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with 
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing 
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator 
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within 
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition 
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this 
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not 
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship 
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution 
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify this proposed 
regulation:
    1. Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 
12866;
    2. Is not a ``significant rule'' under the DOT Regulatory Policies 
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
    4. Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or 
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by 
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the 
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

(k) of this AD, after accomplishing the revision required by 
paragraph (g) of this AD, no alternative actions (e.g., inspections) 
or intervals may be used unless the actions or intervals are 
approved as an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) in accordance 
with the procedures specified in paragraph (m)(1) of this AD.

(j) Retained Method of Compliance With AD 2008-06-20, With Revised 
Compliance Language

    This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (m) of AD 
2012-22-15, with revised compliance language. Accomplishing the 
actions specified in paragraph (g) of this AD terminates the 
requirements of paragraphs (f)(1) through (f)(5) of AD 2008-06-20 
R1.

(k) New Requirement of This AD: Maintenance or Inspection Program
