Adoption of the Amendment Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows: I PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows: I Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. § 39.13 [Amended] 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness directive (AD): I 2005–04–12 SAAB Aircraft AB: Amendment 39–13984. Docket No. FAA–2004–19752; Directorate Identifier 2004–NM–170–AD. Effective Date (a) This AD becomes effective April 1, 2005.

Unsafe Condition (c) This AD was prompted by reports of premature failures of the direct current (DC) starter generator prior to scheduled overhaul. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the starter generator, which could cause a low voltage situation in flight and result in increased pilot workload and reduced redundancy of the electrical powered systems. Compliance (d) You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done. Inspections for Wear of the DC Starter Generator Brushes and Leads (e) For generators overhauled in accordance with Maintenance Review Board (MRB) Task 243104: Before 800 flight hours since the last overhaul or within 100 flight hours after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, perform a general visual inspection for wear of the DC starter generator brushes and leads, in accordance with Saab Service Bulletin 340–24–035, dated July 5, 2004. VerDate jul<14>2003 16:17 Feb 24, 2005 Jkt 205001 Note 1: For the purposes of this AD, a general visual inspection is ‘‘a visual examination of a interior or exterior area, installation or assembly to detect obvious damage, failure or irregularity. This level of inspection is made from within touching distance unless otherwise specified. A mirror may be necessary to ensure visual access to all surfaces in the inspection area. This level of inspection is made under normal available lighting conditions such as daylight, hangar lighting, flashlight or drop-light and may require removal or opening of access panels or doors. Stands, ladders or platforms may be required to gain proximity to the area being checked.’’ Note 2: Saab Service Bulletin 340–24–035, dated July 5, 2004, references Goodrich Service Information Letter 23080–03X–24– 01, dated July 1, 2004, as an additional source of service information. (1) If the tops of the brush sets are above the top of the brush box, repeat the inspection at intervals not to exceed 800 flight hours. (2) If the tops of the brush sets are below the top of the brush box, before further flight, measure the brushes and determine the remaining amount of brush life remaining, in accordance with the service bulletin. (i) If the brush wear is within the limits specified in the service bulletin, repeat the inspection at intervals not to exceed 800 flight hours. (ii) If the brush wear is outside the limits specified in the service bulletin, before further flight, replace the starter generator with a new or serviceable starter generator, in accordance with the service bulletin. Inspections for Loose Rivets (f) For generators overhauled in accordance with MRB Task 243104: Before 800 flight hours since last overhaul or within 100 flight hours after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, perform a general visual inspection of each leading wafer brush for loose rivets, in accordance with Saab Service Bulletin 340–24–035, dated July 5, 2004. Repeat the inspections at intervals not to exceed 800 flight hours. If any rivet is loose, before further flight, replace the DC starter generator with a new or serviceable starter generator, in accordance with the service bulletin. MRB Task 243103 or 243101 (g) For generators overhauled or with brush replacement accomplished in accordance with MRB Task 243103 or 243101, no action is required by this AD. Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs) (h) The Manager, International Branch, ANM–116, FAA, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested in accordance with the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. Related Information (i) Swedish airworthiness directive 1–196 R1, effective July 15, 2004, also addresses the subject of this AD.

The construction of a new Federal contract tower with a weather reporting system was delayed; therefore, the effective date of the establishment of Class D and E4 airspace and amendment of Class E5 airspace was also delayed.

The construction of a federal contract tower with a weather reporting system at Olive Branch Airport made this action necessary.

Background On February 14, 2005, the Department of Transportation (Department) published a final rule on ‘‘Reports by PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 9217 Carriers on Incidents Involving Animals During Air Transport.’’ 70 FR 7392. The rule, which applies to domestic and international scheduled-service transportation performed by U.S. air carriers with any size aircraft, adds a new § 234.13 to 14 CFR part 234.1 Section 234.13 requires each reporting air carrier to submit a report on any incidents involving the loss, injury, or death of an animal 2 during air transport 3 to the Department’s Aviation Consumer Protection Division (ACPD) within 15 days of the end of each month. Each report must include the following information: (1) Carrier and flight number; (2) Date and time of the incident; (3) Description of the animal, including name, if applicable; (4) Identification of the owner(s) and/ or guardian of the animal; (5) Narrative description of the incident; (6) Narrative description of the cause of the incident; (7) Narrative description of any corrective action taken in response to the incident; and (8) Name, title, address, and telephone number of the individual filing the report on behalf of the air carrier.

This reporting directive sets forth the form and manner in which carriers must submit the required data on loss, injury, or death of an animal during air transport. It is being issued as an order under the authority specified in 14 CFR 385.15(c). Form and Manner of Reporting All submissions must be made via email to animalreports@ost.dot.gov except for situations where the carrier can demonstrate that it would suffer undue hardship if it were not permitted to submit the data by regular postal mail and ACPD has approved an exception.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    Docket No. 16534; Airspace Docket No. 03-ASO-19, published in the 
Federal Register on February 3, 2004 (69 FR 5009), established Class D 
and E4 airspace at Olive Branch, MS and amended Class E5 airspace at 
Memphis, TN. The construction of a federal contract tower with a 
weather reporting system at Olive Branch Airport made this action 
necessary. This action was originally scheduled to become effective on 
April 15, 2004; however, an unforeseen delay in beginning construction 
on the tower required the effective date of this action to be delayed. 
Construction is now nearing completion.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an 
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and 
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. 
It, therefore, (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); 
and (3) so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only 
affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that 
this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of 
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
