<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 14 / Tuesday, January 22, 2008 / Rules and Regulations
a loose bolt of the ‘‘V’’ shape airbrake
bellcrank, named hereafter intermediate
control lever. The Left Hand (LH) wing lever
also presented, to a lesser extent, a loose bolt.
This AD requires inspection of the LH and
RH wing airbrake intermediate control levers
for loose attaching bolts and subsequent
repetitive inspections and corrective actions,
as necessary. As a terminating action,
replacement of the bolts and their associated
washers is required.
These actions are intended to address the
identified unsafe condition so as to prevent
loss of the airbrake control system which
could result in an inadvertent forced landing
with consequent sailplane damage and/or
passenger injury.
Actions and Compliance
(f) Unless already done, do the following
actions.
(1) Within 10 days after February 1, 2008
(the effective date of this AD), inspect the
left-hand (LH) and the right-hand (RH) wing
airbrake intermediate control levers for loose
attaching bolts following Allstar PZL Glider
Sp. z o. o. Service Bulletin No. BE–059/SZD–
50–3/2007 ‘‘PUCHACZ,’’ dated October 15,
2007.
(2) Before further flight after the inspection
required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD if any
loose bolt is found, on both wings replace the
split helical spring lock washers with tab
washers and replace the M8x34 bolts with
M8x32 bolts following Allstar PZL Glider Sp.
z o. o. Service Bulletin No. BE–059/SZD–50–
3/2007 ‘‘PUCHACZ,’’ dated October 15, 2007.
(3) No further action is required at this
time if no loose bolts were found during the
inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this
AD.

FAA AD Differences
Note: This AD differs from the MCAI and/
or service information as follows:
(1) The MCAI and the service information
require repetitive inspections if no loose
bolts are found during the initial required
inspection until the next 1,000-hour time-inservice (TIS) overhaul after the effective date
of the AD, at which time replacing the split
helical spring lock washers with tab washers
and replacing the M8x34 bolts with M8x32
bolts is required.
(2) This AD is considered an interim action
because we are not including a repetitive
inspection requirement in this AD. The
Administrative Procedure Act does not
permit the FAA to ‘‘bootstrap’’ a long-term
requirement into an urgent safety of flight
action where the rule becomes effective at the
same time the public has the opportunity to
comment. The short-term action and the
long-term action are analyzed separately for
justification to bypass prior public notice.
(3) After issuing this AD, we may initiate
further AD action (notice of proposed
rulemaking followed by a final rule) to
require the inspection to be repetitive and to
require a terminating action. Credit will be
given in any subsequent action for the initial
inspection done under this AD.
Other FAA AD Provisions
(g) The following provisions also apply to
this AD:

The Rule
This amendment to Title 14, Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 establishes
Class E5 airspace at Eagle Pass, TX
providing the airspace required to
support the new RNAV (GPS) RWY 13/
31 approach developed for IFR landings
at Maverick County Memorial
International Airport. Controlled
airspace extending upward from 700
feet above the surface is required to
encompass all SIAPs and for the safety
of IFR operations at Maverick County
Memorial International Airport.
Designations for Class E5 airspace areas
extending upward from 700 feet above
the surface of the earth are published in
the FAA Order 7400.9R, signed August
15, 2007 and effective September 15,
2007, which is incorporated by
reference in 14 CFR 71.1. Class E5
designations listed in this document
will be published subsequently in the

Agency Findings
The regulations adopted herein will
not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the
national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among various levels of
government. Therefore, it is determined
that this final rule does not have
federalism implication under Executive
Order 13132.
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, is non-controversial and
unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. 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)
does not warrant preparation of a
Regulatory Evaluation as the anticipated
impact is 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.
The FAA’s authority to issue rules
regarding aviation safety is found in
Title 49, of the United States Code.
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.
This rulemaking is promulgated
under the authority described in subtitle
VII, Part A, subpart I, section 40103.
Under that section, the FAA is charged
with prescribing regulations to assign
the use of airspace necessary to ensure
the safety of aircraft and the efficient
use of airspace. This regulation is
within the scope of that authority as it
establishes Class E5 airspace near Eagle
Pass, TX.

Unless a written adverse or negative comment or a written notice of
intent to submit an adverse or negative comment is received within the

comment, a document withdrawing the direct final rule will be published
in the Federal Register, and a notice of proposed rulemaking may be
published with a new comment period.
