(1)performing the damage tolerance evaluation (DTE) of baseline structure, modified structure and published repairs;

(2)identifying the aeroplane structural configuration to be evaluated;

(3)identifying widespread fatigue damage (WFD)-susceptible structure;

(4)identifying the source of engineering data that will be used to perform the required evaluations;

(5)performing the WFD evaluation of structure;

(6)establishing a limit of validity (LOV) and plans for distribution upon approval (including incorporation of the LOV into the (airworthiness limitation section) ALS);

(7)identifying and developing the maintenance actions required to support the LOV;

(8)developing a baseline corrosion prevention and control programme (CPCP);

(9)establishing a process to ensure the continuing structural integrity programme remains valid;
