Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

NMFS announces its request for applications for the 2008 shark research fishery from commercial shark fishermen. The shark research fishery will allow for the collection of fisherydependent data for future stock assessments while also allowing NMFS and commercial fishermen to conduct cooperative research to meet the shark research objectives for the Agency. Only commercial vessels participating in the shark research fishery would be able to land sandbar sharks. These vessels would also land nonsandbar large coastal sharks (LCS), small coastal sharks (SCS), and pelagic sharks. Commercial vessels not participating in the shark research fishery may only land nonsandbar LCS, SCS, and pelagic sharks. Commercial shark fishermen who are interested in participating in the shark research fishery need to submit a completed Shark Research Fishery Permit Application in order to be considered.

This final rule establishes regulations for seasons, harvest limits, methods, and means related to taking of wildlife for subsistence uses in Alaska during the 200809 and 200910 regulatory years. These regulations have been subject to an annual public review cycle, but starting in 2008 the Federal Subsistence Management Program will provide a public review process for subsistence hunting and trapping regulations in evennumbered years and subsistence fishing and shellfish regulations in oddnumbered years. The Program will also address customary and traditional use determinations during the applicable biennial cycle. This cycle adjustment does not affect the public's ability to submit special action requests or requests for reconsideration, as outlined in the regulations. This rulemaking replaces the subpart D subsistence taking of wildlife taking regulations which expire June 30, 2008. This rule also amends the customary and traditional use determinations of the Federal Subsistence Board.

Taking of Marine Mammals Incidental to Commercial Fishing Operations; Atlantic Pelagic Longline Take Reduction Plan

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) announces the initial determination that the pelagic longline fishery has a high level of mortality and serious injury across a number of marine mammal stocks, and proposes regulations to implement the Atlantic Pelagic Longline Take Reduction Plan (PLTRP) to reduce serious injuries and mortalities of pilot whales and Risso's dolphins in the Atlantic pelagic longline fishery. The PLTRP is based on consensus
recommendations submitted by the Atlantic Pelagic Longline Take Reduction Team (PLTRT). This action is necessary because current serious injury and mortality rates of pilot whales and Risso's dolphins incidental to the Atlantic pelagic longline component of a Category I fishery are above insignificant levels approaching a zero mortality and serious injury rate (zero mortality rate goal, or ZMRG), and therefore, inconsistent with the longterm goal of the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). The PLTRP is intended to meet the statutory mandates and r

Notice is hereby given that on June 11, 2008, a proposed Consent Decree in United States et al. v. Centex Homes, a Nevada General Partnership, Civil Action No. 1:08CV605 was lodged with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.

In this action the United States sought civil penalties and injunctive relief for alleged violations of the Clean Water Act (``CWA''), 33 U.S.C. 1311 et seq., as well as violations of state and federal National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (``NPDES'') permits governing the discharge of storm water from Centex's construction sites. The proposed consent decree would require Centex to pay a civil penalty of $1,485,000 and implement a companywide compliance program that goes beyond current regulatory requirements.

Airworthiness Directives; Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model ERJ 190 Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This proposed AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

During aircraft structure fatigue tests, cracks were found in the wing lower skin stringers between ribs 7 and 10 on both wings. In order to prevent fatigue cracks in the wing lower skin stringers, which could result in fuel leakage and reduced structural integrity of the wing, the referred stringers must be reworked.
The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 737-600, -700, and -800 Series Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 737600, 700, and 800 series airplanes. This proposed AD would require inspecting the free flange of the lower stringers of the wing center section for drill starts, and applicable related investigative and corrective actions. This proposed AD results from drill starts being found on the free flange of the lower stringers of the wing center section during a quality assurance inspection at the final assembly plant. We are proposing this AD to prevent cracks from propagating from drill starts in the free flange of the lower stringers of the wing center section, which could cause a loss of structural integrity of the wing center section and may result in a fuel leak.

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 737-300, -400, and -500 Series Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 737300, 400, and 500 series airplanes. This proposed AD would require repetitive high frequency eddy current (HFEC) inspections for cracking of the 1.04inch nominal diameter wire penetration hole in the
[[Page 35599]]
frame and frame reinforcement, between stringers S20 and S21, on both the left and right sides of the airplane, and related investigative/ corrective actions if necessary. This proposed AD results from reports of cracking in the frame, or in the frame and frame reinforcement, common to the 1.04inch nominal diameter wire penetration hole intended for wire routing. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct cracking in the fuselage frames and frame reinforcements, which could reduce the structural capability of the frames to sustain limit loads, and result in cracking in the fuselage skin and subsequent rapid depressurization of the airplane.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A330-200, A330-300, and A340-300 Series Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

During fatigue tests (EF3) on the A340600, damages were found in longitudinal doubler
[[Page 35604]]
at VTP (vertical tail plane) attachment cutout between Frame (FR) 80 and FR86. This damage occurred between 58341 and 72891 simulated flight cycles (FC).

Due to the higher Design Service Goal and different design (e.g. doubler thickness) [of the] A330200/300 and A340300 aircraft series, the damage assessment concluded [there was] potential impact on [the airplanes specified in the] applicability.
* * * * *
The unsafe condition is crack propagation in the VTP attachment cutout, which could reduce airplane structural integrity in the tail section. The proposed

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A330-200, A330-300, and A340-300 Series Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

During manufacturing of A330/A340 aircraft framework, cracks have been found on Frame (FR) 12, left (LH) and right (RH) sides. It has been confirmed that a defect of the FR12 forming tool press is the root cause of the cracks.

If undetected such damage could affect, after propagation, the structural integrity of the aircraft.
* * * * *
The proposed AD would require actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 Series Airplanes

Tue, Jun 24 2008 11:00:00 GMT

Damage to the lower lateral fittings of the 80VU rack * * * [and] damage to the lower central support fitting * * *.

In the worst case scenario a complete failure of the 80VU fittings in combination with a high load factor or strong vibration could lead to failure of the rack structure and/or computers or rupture/disconnection of the cable harnesses to one or more computers located in the 80VU. This rack contains computers for Flight Controls, Communication and Radionavigation. These functions are duplicated across other racks but during critical phases of flight the multiple system failures/reconfiguration may constitute an unsafe condition.
