Action
Proposed rule; withdrawal.
Summary
The FAA withdraws a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that proposed to revise Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-12-15, which applies to all The Boeing Company Model 757 airplanes. The NPRM would have corrected errors in certain paragraph references in AD 2012-12-15; continued to require revising the maintenance program by incorporating new and revised fuel tank system limitations in the Airworthiness Limitations (AWLs) section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness; and continued to require the initial inspection of certain repetitive AWL inspections to phase-in those inspections, and repair if necessary. Since the proposed AD was issued, we have received new data that the unsafe condition has been addressed by AD 2012-12-15, and the compliance relief that would have been provided by the proposed AD is no longer relevant. Accordingly, the proposed AD is withdrawn.
