Download as PDF 3210 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 13 / Friday, January 20, 2006 / Rules and Regulations 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. Effective Date Regulatory Findings We have 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 DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and (3) 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. We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation. Unsafe Condition (a) This AD becomes effective February 24, 2006. Affected ADs (b) None. Applicability (c) This AD applies to EMBRAER Model EMB–120, –120ER, –120FC, –120QC, and –120RT airplanes, certificated in any category; as identified in EMBRAER Service Bulletin 120–53–0080, dated November 30, 2004. (d) This AD results from a report indicating that, during production, a pinhole was left open at the upper frame of the auxiliary power unit (APU) firewall. We are issuing this AD to ensure that the APU compartment is isolated from the rest of the airplane in the event of an APU fire. RIN 2120–AA64 Rivet Installation (f) Within 4,000 flight hours or 24 months, whichever occurs first after the effective date of this AD: Install a rivet and washer in the hole of the upper frame of the APU firewall, in accordance with EMBRAER Service Bulletin 120–53–0080, dated November 30, 2004. Related Information (h) Brazilian airworthiness directive 2005– 08–03, effective September 5, 2005, also addresses the subject of this AD. PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES Material Incorporated by Reference (i) You must use EMBRAER Service Bulletin 120–53–0080, dated November 30, 2004, to perform the actions that are required by this AD, unless the AD specifies otherwise.

Conclusion We have carefully reviewed the available data and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed. cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES Costs of Compliance This AD will affect about 718 airplanes of U.S. registry. The required actions will take about 1 work hour per airplane, at an average labor rate of $65 per work hour. Required parts will cost about $135 per airplane. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the AD for U.S. operators is $143,600, or $200 per airplane.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for 
certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) 
airplanes. This AD requires replacing the Camloc fasteners on the 
sidewall of the center pedestal. This AD results from reports of the 
Camloc fasteners on the sidewall of the center pedestal disengaging and 
interfering with an inboard rudder pedal. We are issuing this AD to 
prevent these fasteners from disengaging and interfering with an 
inboard rudder pedal, which could reduce directional controllability of 
the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective February 24, 2006.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of February 24, 
2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Examining the Docket

    You may examine the airworthiness directive (AD) docket on the 
Internet at https://dms.dot.gov or in person at the Docket Management 
Facility office between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, 
except Federal holidays. The Docket Management Facility office 
(telephone (800) 647-5227) is located on the plaza level of the Nassif 
Building at the street address stated in the ADDRESSES section.

Discussion

    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 
CFR part 39 to include an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier 
Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes. That NPRM 
was published in the Federal Register on November 15, 2005 (70 FR 
69291). That NPRM proposed to require replacing the Camloc fasteners on 
the sidewall of the center pedestal.

Comments

    We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the 
development of this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the 
determination of the cost to the public.

Conclusion

    We have carefully reviewed the available data and determined that 
air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed.

Costs of Compliance

    This AD will affect about 718 airplanes of U.S. registry. The 
required actions will take about 1 work hour per airplane, at an 
average labor rate of $65 per work hour. Required parts will cost about 
$135 per airplane. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the AD 
for U.S. operators is $143,600, or $200 per airplane.

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 have 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 DOT Regulatory Policies and 
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    (3) 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to 
comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the ADDRESSES 
section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.
