(a) The Administrator of the Food and Nutrition Service may waive or modify specific regulatory provisions contained in this part for one or more State agencies. Waivers may be issued following a State agency request or at the discretion of FNS. Waivers may be approved only in the following situations: (1) The specific regulatory provision cannot be implemented due to extraordinary temporary situations; (2) FNS determines that the waiver would result in a more effective and efficient administration of the program; or (3) Unique geographic conditions within the geographic area served by the administering agency preclude effective implementation of the specific regulatory provision and require an alternate procedure. (b) FNS shall not approve waivers when: (1) The waiver would be inconsistent with the provisions of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008; or (2) The waiver would result in material impairment of any statutory or regulatory rights of participants or potential participants. (c) FNS shall approve waivers for a period not to exceed one year unless the waiver is for an on-going situation. If the waiver is requested for longer than a year, appropriate justification shall be required and FNS will determine if a longer period is warranted and if so, the duration of the waiver. Extensions may be granted provided that State agencies submit appropriate justification to FNS. (d) When submitting requests for waivers, State agencies shall provide compelling justification for the waiver in terms of how the waiver will meet the conditions of paragraphs (a)(1), (a)(2), and/or (a)(3) of this section. At a minimum, requests for waivers shall include but not necessarily be limited to: (1) Reasons why the waiver is needed; VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:45 Aug 11, 2023 Jkt 259001 54933 (2) Anticipated impact on service to participants or potential participants who would be affected; (3) Anticipated time period for which the waiver is needed; and (4) Thorough explanation of the proposed alternative provision to be used in lieu of the waived or modified regulatory provision.

Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing CBI as ‘‘PROPIN.’’ The FAA will treat such marked submissions as confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Tom Rodriguez, Aviation Safety Engineer, FAA, 1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 410, Westbury, NY 11590; telephone: 206–231–3226; email tom.rodriguez@faa.gov. Any commentary that the FAA receives that VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:45 Aug 11, 2023 Jkt 259001 is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking. Background The FAA issued an NPRM (88 FR 47086, July 21, 2023) that would apply to all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–FALCON 900 airplanes. The NPRM proposed to supersede AD 2023– 04–10, Amendment 39–22357 (88 FR 20743, April 7, 2023) (AD 2023–04–10), for all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE–FALCON 900 airplanes. AD 2023–04–10 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The NPRM proposed to continue to require the actions in AD 2023–04–10 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2023–0046, dated March 2, 2023. The NPRM was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. The FAA is proposing this AD to address reduced structural integrity of the airplane. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 The FAA reviewed EASA AD 2023– 0046. This service information specifies new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations for airplane structures and safe life limits. This proposed AD would also require EASA AD 2022–0137, which the Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by reference as of May 12, 2023 (88 FR 20743, April 7, 2023). This material is reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES. Need for the Correction As published, the docket number referenced throughout the NPRM is incorrect. The NPRM incorrectly references ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2023– 1501.’’ The correct docket number is ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2023–1502.’’ Although no other part of the preamble or regulatory information has been corrected, for clarity the FAA is publishing the entire proposed rule in the Federal Register. The comment due date of the NPRM remains September 5, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or 
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed 
under ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2023-1502; Project Identifier 
MCAI-2023-00380-T'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful 
comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain the 
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA 
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend 
this proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in 
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR 
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to 
regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. The 
agency will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal 
contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily 
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of 
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public 
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial 
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that 
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to 
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted 
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing 
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as 
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public 
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Tom 
Rodriguez, Aviation Safety Engineer, FAA, 1600 Stewart Avenue, Suite 
410, Westbury, NY 11590; telephone: 206-231-3226; email 
[email protected]. Any commentary that the FAA receives that is not 
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for 
this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA issued an NPRM (88 FR 47086, July 21, 2023) that would 
apply to all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 900 airplanes. The 
NPRM proposed to supersede AD 2023-04-10, Amendment 39-22357 (88 FR 
20743, April 7, 2023) (AD 2023-04-10), for all Dassault Aviation Model 
MYSTERE-FALCON 900 airplanes. AD 2023-04-10 requires revising the 
existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to 
incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations.
    The NPRM proposed to continue to require the actions in AD 2023-04-
10 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection 
program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive 
airworthiness limitations, as specified in a European Union Aviation 
Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2023-0046, dated March 2, 2023. The NPRM was 
prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness 
limitations are necessary. The FAA is proposing this AD to address 
reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed EASA AD 2023-0046. This service information 
specifies new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations for 
airplane structures and safe life limits.
    This proposed AD would also require EASA AD 2022-0137, which the 
Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by 
reference as of May 12, 2023 (88 FR 20743, April 7, 2023).
    This material is reasonably available because the interested 
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by 
the means identified in ADDRESSES.

Need for the Correction

    As published, the docket number referenced throughout the NPRM is 
incorrect. The NPRM incorrectly references ``Docket No. FAA-2023-
