SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to include an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to 
the specified products. That NPRM published in the Federal Register on 
January 21, 2011 (76 FR 3856). That NPRM proposed to require, depending 
on airplane configuration, doing certain wiring changes, replacing the 
fuel pump power control relays for the main, center, and auxiliary 
tanks, as applicable, with new relays having a GFI feature, performing 
certain bonding resistance measurements, and modifying relay module 
assemblies. That NPRM also proposed to require revising the maintenance 
program to incorporate Airworthiness Limitations (AWLs) 28-AWL-23 (for 
Model 737-100, 737-200, and 737-200C series airplanes) and 28-AWL-22 
(for Model 737-300, 737-400, and 737-500 series airplanes).

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the proposal 
and the FAA's response to each comment. Boeing concurs with the content 
of this AD.

Request To Correct Typographical Errors

    Alaska Airlines requested that corrections be made to certain 
accomplishment instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-
28A1212, Revision 1, dated August 27, 2010. Alaska Airlines requested 
that Boeing Information Notice 737-28A1212 IN 01, dated October 7, 
2010, which specifies those corrections, be incorporated into the AD.
    We agree that typographical errors in that service bulletin need to 
be corrected. Where paragraph 3.B.1.s. of Part 1 of the Accomplishment 
Instructions of Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1212, Revision 1, 
dated August 27, 2010, states that the affected airplanes are ``Group 
11, Configuration 1,'' that paragraph also applies to ``Group 13, 
Configuration 1.'' The action specified in paragraph 3.B.1.s. of that 
service bulletin (changing a wire bundle) is a logical outgrowth of the 
actions specified in that service bulletin. Paragraph (j) of this AD 
addresses this change. Also, the figure in Appendix A, paragraph 1., of 
Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 737-28A1212, Revision 1, dated August 27, 
2010, is not identified, but should be identified as ``Figure 1.'' 
Paragraph (k) of this AD addresses this change. That information notice 
includes additional changes to that service bulletin; however, they are 
not part of the accomplishment instructions, and therefore are not 
addressed in our response.

Additional Change

    Boeing has issued Section 9 of Boeing 737-100/200/200C/300/400/500 
Airworthiness Limitations (AWL) and Certification Maintenance 
Requirements (CMRs), Document D6-38278-CMR, Revision August 2010, to 
update certain AWLs other than those specified in this AD. The document 
reference has been updated in paragraph (l) of this AD.
    We have also clarified the intent of paragraph (n) of this AD by 
revising the heading.
    We have also added paragraph (o) of this AD to give credit for 
revising the maintenance program by incorporating AWLs 28-AWL-22 (for 
Model 737-300, -400, and -500 series airplanes) and 28-AWL-23 (for 
Model 737-100, -200, and -200C series airplanes), in accordance with 
Section 9 of Boeing 737-100/200/200C/300/400/500 Airworthiness 
Limitations (AWL) and Certification Maintenance Requirements (CMRs), 
Document D6-38278-CMR, Revision May 2009.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received, 
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting 
the AD with the changes described previously. We have determined that 
these changes:
    <bullet> [Agr]re consistent with the intent that was proposed in 
the NPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and

[[Page 33989]]

    <bullet> Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM.
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 750 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

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

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order 
13132. This AD will 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 that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive 
Order 12866,
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under 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.
