[FR Doc. 2021–02969 Filed 2–19–21; 8:45 am]
§ 200.318
(a) Auditor procurement. In procuring
audit services, the auditee must follow
the procurement standards prescribed
by the Procurement Standards in
§§ 200.317 through 200.327 of subpart D
of this part or the FAR (48 CFR part 42),
as applicable. In requesting proposals
for audit services, the objectives and
scope of the audit must be made clear
and the non-Federal entity must request
a copy of the audit organization’s peer
review report which the auditor is
required to provide under GAGAS.
Factors to be considered in evaluating
each proposal for audit services include
the responsiveness to the request for
proposal, relevant experience,
availability of staff with professional
qualifications and technical abilities,
the results of peer and external quality
control reviews, and price. Whenever
possible, the auditee must make positive
efforts to utilize small businesses,
minority-owned firms, and women’s
business enterprises, in procuring audit
services as stated in § 200.321, or the
FAR (48 CFR part 42), as applicable.

(e) To foster greater economy and
efficiency, and in accordance with
efforts to promote cost-effective use of
shared services across the Federal
Government, the non-Federal entity is
encouraged to enter into state and local
intergovernmental agreements or interentity agreements where appropriate for
procurement or use of common or
shared goods and services. Competition
requirements will be met with
documented procurement actions using
strategic sourcing, shared services, and
other similar procurement
arrangements.

*
(d) * * *
(4) The pass-through entity is
responsible for resolving audit findings
specifically related to the subaward and
not responsible for resolving
crosscutting findings. If a subrecipient
has a current Single Audit report posted
in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and
has not otherwise been excluded from
receipt of Federal funding (e.g., has been
debarred or suspended), the passthrough entity may rely on the
subrecipient’s cognizant audit agency or
cognizant oversight agency to perform
audit follow-up and make management
decisions related to cross-cutting
findings in accordance with section
§ 200.513(a)(3)(vii). Such reliance does
not eliminate the responsibility of the
pass-through entity to issue subawards
that conform to agency and awardspecific requirements, to manage risk
through ongoing subaward monitoring,
and to monitor the status of the findings
that are specifically related to the
subaward.

for a major program are likely to be
ineffective in preventing or detecting
noncompliance, the planning and
performing of testing described in
paragraph (c)(3) of this section are not
required for those compliance
requirements. However, the auditor
must report a significant deficiency or
material weakness in accordance with
§ 200.516, assess the related control risk
at the maximum, and consider whether
additional compliance tests are required
because of ineffective internal control.

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing
Company Airplanes
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for all The
Boeing Company Model 737 series
airplanes, excluding Model 737–100,
–200, –200C, –300, –400, and –500
series airplanes. This AD was prompted
by reports of cracked or completely
severed lugs in the upper aft corner stop
fitting assembly of the forward entry
door. This AD requires an inspection, a
measurement, or a records check of that
assembly to determine the part number,
and replacement if a certain part is
found. The FAA is issuing this AD to
address the unsafe condition on these
products.
SUMMARY:
This AD is effective March 29,
2021.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of a certain publication listed in this AD
as of March 29, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Aviation Partners Boeing stated that
the installation of winglets per
Supplemental Type Certificate (STC)
ST00830SE does not affect compliance
with the proposed actions.
The FAA agrees that the installation
of winglets per STC ST00830SE would
not affect the ability to replace the
affected stop fitting assembly with a
newly designed stop fitting assembly as
required by this AD. Operators of
airplanes with these winglets do not
need to request a ‘‘change in product’’
alternative method of compliance
(AMOC) approval as specified in 14 CFR
39.17. The FAA has redesignated
paragraph (c) of the proposed AD as
paragraph (c)(1) of this AD, and added
paragraph (c)(2) accordingly.
Discussion
The FAA issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would
apply to all The Boeing Company Model
737 series airplanes, excluding Model
737–100, –200, –200C, –300, –400, and
–500 series airplanes. The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on
June 3, 2020 (85 FR 34136). The NPRM
was prompted by reports of cracked or
completely severed lugs in the upper aft
corner stop fitting assembly of the
forward entry door. Analysis of the
design of the stop fitting assembly
revealed that undersized wall thickness
of the lug made it susceptible to fatigue
cracking, which may result in the
forward entry door being unable to
sustain limit load. In the NPRM, the
FAA proposed to require an inspection,
a measurement, or a records check of
that assembly to determine the part
number, and replacement if a certain
part-numbered assembly is installed.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address
cracked or completely severed lugs,
which could result in reduced structural
integrity of the forward entry door and
consequent rapid decompression of the
airplane.

Comments
The FAA received comments from
four commenters. The following
presents the comments received on the
NPRM and the FAA’s response to each
comment.
Effect of Winglets on Accomplishment
of the Proposed Actions
Request for Compliance Actions at the
Component Level
Southwest Airlines (SWA) asked that
the compliance actions be reported at
the component level due to the
interchangeability of the forward entry
doors between the Model 737 NG and
737 MAX fleets.
The FAA infers that the commenter is
requesting that the AD’s applicability
point towards the component parts,
rather than the airplane. The FAA
acknowledges that the component most
likely to be rotated is the forward entry
door because doors are likely removed
with the stop fittings intact. However,
the FAA disagrees with changing the
applicability of this AD because the
unsafe condition is related to the stop
fitting assembly and an affected stop
fitting assembly may be installed on a
forward entry door of any airplane
identified in paragraph (c) of this AD. In
addition, paragraph (i) of this AD, ‘‘Parts
Installation Prohibition,’’ states that no
person may install a forward entry door
that has a stop fitting assembly with part
number (P/N) 141A6104–3 on any
airplane. The FAA used this language
because doors are often rotated among
aircraft with the stop fitting assembly
already installed. The FAA has therefore
determined that an airplane-level
applicability is appropriate and has not
changed this AD in this regard.
