ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012–09– 07 for certain Airbus Model A319–111, –112, and –132 airplanes; Model A320– 111, –211, –212, –214, and –232 airplanes; and Model A321–111, –211, –212, and –231 airplanes. AD 2012–09– 07 required an electrical bonding test between the gravity fill re-fuel adaptor and the top skin panels on the wings; and, if necessary, an inspection for corrosion of the component interface and adjacent area; and repairing the gravity fuel adaptor if necessary. This new AD adds airplanes to the applicability and requires inspecting those airplanes to determine if a repair was done, and doing the electrical bonding test and corrective action if necessary. This AD was prompted by a determination that more airplanes are SUMMARY: E:\FR\FM\18FER1.SGM 18FER1 8514 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 32 / Wednesday, February 18, 2015 / Rules and Regulations mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES subject to the identified unsafe condition.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2012–09–07, Amendment 39–17042 (77 FR 28238, May 14, 2012). AD 2012–09–07 applied to certain Airbus Model A319–111, –112, and –132 airplanes; Model A320– 111, –211, –212, –214, and –232 airplanes; and Model A321–111, –211, –212, and –231 airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2014 (79 FR 44144). The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:46 Feb 17, 2015 Jkt 235001 Directive 2013–0277R1, dated December 4, 2013 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus Model A318–111, –112, –121, and –122 airplanes; Model A319–111, –112, –113, –114, –115, –131, –132, and –133 airplanes; Model A320–111, –211, –212, –214, –231, –232, and –233 airplanes; and Model A321–111, –112, –131, –211, –212, –213, –231, and –232 airplanes. The MCAI states: Cases of corrosion findings were reported on the overwing refueling aperture (used to fill the fuel tank by gravity) on the wing top skin. The reported corrosion was on the mating surface of the aperture flange, underneath the refuel adaptor. Corrosion findings have been repaired on a case by case basis in accordance with approved data. For certain aeroplanes, the repair provided by Airbus contained instructions to apply primer coating on the mating surface. Since doing those repairs, it has been found that this primer coating may prevent proper electrical bonding provision between the overwing refueling cap adaptor and the wing skin. This condition, if not detected and corrected, could, in combination with a lightning strike in this area, create a source of ignition in a fuel tank, possibly resulting in a fire or explosion and consequent loss of the aeroplane. To address this potential unsafe condition, EASA issued AD 2011–0034 [https:// ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2011_ 0034.pdf/AD_2011-0034] to require a onetime electrical bonding check between the gravity fill re-fuel adaptor and the top skin panels on the affected aeroplanes (identified by MSN [manufacturer serial number] in the applicability section of that [EASA] AD) and, in case of findings, the accomplishment of applicable corrective actions. Since that [EASA] AD was issued, EASA has been made aware that some operators may inadvertently have applied an Airbus repair, approved for only one aeroplane MSN, to other aeroplanes, without requesting a revision of the repair to add aeroplanes, or to notify Airbus of such action(s). Consequently, the condition addressed by EASA AD 2011–0034 could affect more aeroplanes than initially determined. For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the requirements of EASA AD 2011–0034, which is superseded, and expands the Applicability to all A320 family aeroplane Models, all MSN. This [EASA] AD has been revised to amend and clarify paragraph (3), and to correct an error in the Type/Model designations on page 1, where the A318 was inadvertently omitted. For the newly added airplanes, required actions include inspecting for the presence of a corrosion repair on an overwing refueling aperture, and doing the electrical bonding test and applicable corrective actions if a repair has been installed. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Internet at https://www.regulations.gov/# !documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-04840002. Comments We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comment received on the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014) and the FAA’s response to the comment. Request To Include Revised Service Information United Airlines (UAL) asked that we include a statement in the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014), which allows performing the required actions in accordance with the instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. UAL stated that the revised service information specifies the same method of inspection as specified in Airbus Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, dated June 14, 2010. UAL further stated that Revision 01 of this service bulletin also provides operators with updated repair instructions that were not available in the original issue of this service bulletin. We agree with the commenter’s request. Since issuance of the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014), Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. This revision states that no additional work is necessary on airplanes changed in accordance with Airbus Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, dated June 14, 2010, which was specified as the appropriate source of service information in the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014). We have changed paragraph (g) of this AD to specify Airbus Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. We have also added a new paragraph (h) to this AD to give credit for actions done before the effective date of this AD using Airbus Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, dated June 14, 2010, and redesignated subsequent paragraphs accordingly. Conclusion We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting this AD with the changes described previously and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes: • Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014) for correcting the unsafe condition; and • Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was already E:\FR\FM\18FER1.SGM 18FER1 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 32 / Wednesday, February 18, 2015 / Rules and Regulations proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014). We also determined that these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A320–57–1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. The service information describes procedures for inspecting certain airplanes to determine if a repair was done, and doing an electrical bonding test and corrective action if necessary. This service information is reasonably available; see ADDRESSES for ways to access this service information. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD affects 851 airplanes of U.S. registry. The actions required by AD 2012–09– 07, Amendment 39–17042 (77 FR 28238, May 14, 2012), and retained in this AD take about 2 work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that were required by AD 2012–09–07 is $170 per product. We also estimate that it takes about 2 work-hours per product to comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts cost about $0 per product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be $144,670, or $170 per product. In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will take about 11 work-hours, for a cost of $935 per product. We have no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these actions. 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:46 Feb 17, 2015 Jkt 235001 because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. Regulatory Findings We determined that 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 the 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.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-09-07 for 
certain Airbus Model A319-111, -112, and -132 airplanes; Model A320-
111, -211, -212, -214, and -232 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -211, -
212, and -231 airplanes. AD 2012-09-07 required an electrical bonding 
test between the gravity fill re-fuel adaptor and the top skin panels 
on the wings; and, if necessary, an inspection for corrosion of the 
component interface and adjacent area; and repairing the gravity fuel 
adaptor if necessary. This new AD adds airplanes to the applicability 
and requires inspecting those airplanes to determine if a repair was 
done, and doing the electrical bonding test and corrective action if 
necessary. This AD was prompted by a determination that more airplanes 
are

[[Page 8514]]

subject to the identified unsafe condition. We are issuing this AD to 
detect and correct corrosion and improper bonding, which, in 
combination with a lightning strike in this area, could create a source 
of ignition in a fuel tank, resulting in a fire or explosion and 
consequent loss of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective March 25, 2015.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of March 25, 
2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 to supersede AD 2012-09-07, Amendment 39-17042 (77 FR 28238, 
May 14, 2012). AD 2012-09-07 applied to certain Airbus Model A319-111, 
-112, and -132 airplanes; Model A320-111, -211, -212, -214, and -232 
airplanes; and Model A321-111, -211, -212, and -231 airplanes. The NPRM 
published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2014 (79 FR 44144).
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA 
Airworthiness Directive 2013-0277R1, dated December 4, 2013 (referred 
to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or 
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus Model 
A318-111, -112, -121, and -122 airplanes; Model A319-111, -112, -113, -
114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes; Model A320-111, -211, -212, 
-214, -231, -232, and -233 airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -
211, -212, -213, -231, and -232 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Cases of corrosion findings were reported on the overwing 
refueling aperture (used to fill the fuel tank by gravity) on the 
wing top skin. The reported corrosion was on the mating surface of 
the aperture flange, underneath the refuel adaptor. Corrosion 
findings have been repaired on a case by case basis in accordance 
with approved data.
    For certain aeroplanes, the repair provided by Airbus contained 
instructions to apply primer coating on the mating surface. Since 
doing those repairs, it has been found that this primer coating may 
prevent proper electrical bonding provision between the overwing 
refueling cap adaptor and the wing skin.
    This condition, if not detected and corrected, could, in 
combination with a lightning strike in this area, create a source of 
ignition in a fuel tank, possibly resulting in a fire or explosion 
and consequent loss of the aeroplane.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, EASA issued AD 2011-
0034 [https://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2011_0034.pdf/AD_2011-0034] to require a one-time electrical bonding check between the 
gravity fill re-fuel adaptor and the top skin panels on the affected 
aeroplanes (identified by MSN [manufacturer serial number] in the 
applicability section of that [EASA] AD) and, in case of findings, 
the accomplishment of applicable corrective actions.
    Since that [EASA] AD was issued, EASA has been made aware that 
some operators may inadvertently have applied an Airbus repair, 
approved for only one aeroplane MSN, to other aeroplanes, without 
requesting a revision of the repair to add aeroplanes, or to notify 
Airbus of such action(s). Consequently, the condition addressed by 
EASA AD 2011-0034 could affect more aeroplanes than initially 
determined.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the 
requirements of EASA AD 2011-0034, which is superseded, and expands 
the Applicability to all A320 family aeroplane Models, all MSN.
    This [EASA] AD has been revised to amend and clarify paragraph 
(3), and to correct an error in the Type/Model designations on page 
1, where the A318 was inadvertently omitted.

For the newly added airplanes, required actions include inspecting for 
the presence of a corrosion repair on an overwing refueling aperture, 
and doing the electrical bonding test and applicable corrective actions 
if a repair has been installed. You may examine the MCAI in the AD 
docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-0484-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. The following presents the comment received on the NPRM (79 FR 
44144, July 30, 2014) and the FAA's response to the comment.

Request To Include Revised Service Information

    United Airlines (UAL) asked that we include a statement in the NPRM 
(79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014), which allows performing the required 
actions in accordance with the instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin 
A320-57-1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. UAL stated that the 
revised service information specifies the same method of inspection as 
specified in Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-1152, dated June 14, 2010. 
UAL further stated that Revision 01 of this service bulletin also 
provides operators with updated repair instructions that were not 
available in the original issue of this service bulletin.
    We agree with the commenter's request. Since issuance of the NPRM 
(79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014), Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A320-
57-1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. This revision states 
that no additional work is necessary on airplanes changed in accordance 
with Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-1152, dated June 14, 2010, which 
was specified as the appropriate source of service information in the 
NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014).
    We have changed paragraph (g) of this AD to specify Airbus Service 
Bulletin A320-57-1152, Revision 01, dated December 19, 2013. We have 
also added a new paragraph (h) to this AD to give credit for actions 
done before the effective date of this AD using Airbus Service Bulletin 
A320-57-1152, dated June 14, 2010, and redesignated subsequent 
paragraphs accordingly.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and 
the public interest require adopting this AD with the changes described 
previously and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these 
minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014) for correcting the unsafe condition; 
and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already

[[Page 8515]]

proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 44144, July 30, 2014).
    We also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued Service Bulletin A320-57-1152, Revision 01, dated 
December 19, 2013. The service information describes procedures for 
inspecting certain airplanes to determine if a repair was done, and 
doing an electrical bonding test and corrective action if necessary. 
This service information is reasonably available; see ADDRESSES for 
ways to access this service information.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 851 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    The actions required by AD 2012-09-07, Amendment 39-17042 (77 FR 
28238, May 14, 2012), and retained in this AD take about 2 work-hours 
per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work-hour. Based on 
these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that were required by 
AD 2012-09-07 is $170 per product.
    We also estimate that it takes about 2 work-hours per product to 
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate 
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts cost about $0 per product. Based 
on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to 
be $144,670, or $170 per product.
    In addition, we estimate that any necessary follow-on actions will 
take about 11 work-hours, for a cost of $935 per product. We have no 
way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these 
actions.

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

    We determined that 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 the 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.

    (1) If the resistance value is 10 milliohms or less at the left-
hand and right-hand wing, no further action is required by this 
paragraph.
    (2) If the resistance value is greater than 10 milliohms at the 
left-hand or right-hand wing, before further flight, do a general 
visual inspection for corrosion of the component interface and 
adjacent area, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of 
Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-1152, Revision 01, dated December 
19, 2013. If any corrosion is found during the inspection, before 
further flight, repair the gravity fill fuel adaptor, in accordance 
with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin

116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA; or the European Aviation 
Safety Agency (EASA); or Airbus's EASA Design Organization Approval 
(DOA). If approved by the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-
authorized signature.

(h) Credit for Previous Actions

    This paragraph provides credit for the actions specified in 
paragraph (g) of this AD, if those actions were performed before the 
effective date of this AD using Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-
1152, dated June 14, 2010, which was incorporated by reference in AD 
2012-09-07, Amendment 39-17042 (77 FR 28238, May 14, 2012).

(i) New Requirement of This AD: Maintenance Check/Electrical Bonding 
Test and Corrective Action if Necessary

    For airplanes other than those identified in paragraph (g) of 
this AD: Within 24 months after the effective date of this AD, 
determine whether a corrosion repair has been done on an overwing 
refueling aperture, whereby a primer coating has been applied on the 
mating surface of the aperture flange. A review of the airplane 
maintenance records is acceptable to make this determination, 
provided that whether a primer coat was applied can be conclusively 
determined from that review.
    (1) If it is determined that a primer coating was applied on the 
mating surface of the aperture flange; or if a determination cannot 
be made, or the outcome is inconclusive: Within 24 months after the 
effective date of this AD do the electrical bonding test specified 
in paragraph (g) of this AD, and before further flight, do all 
applicable actions specified in paragraph (g)(2) of this AD.
    (2) If it is determined that a corrosion repair has not been 
done, and a primer coating has not been applied on the mating 
surface of the aperture flange since first entry into service, no 
further action is required by this paragraph.
