ACTION: Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–600),CL–600– 2A12 (CL–601), CL–600–2B16 (CL–601– 3A, CL–601–3R, & CL–604 (Including CL–605 Marketing Variant)) Airplanes, and Model CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) Airplanes SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Bombardier Model CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–600), CL–600–2A12 (CL–601), and CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, and CL–604) airplanes. The existing AD currently requires revising the airplane flight manuals (AFMs) to include new cold weather operations limitations and procedures. This AD requires revising the AFMs to include a requirement for flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations. This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll during take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of control on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing surfaces. This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of October 31, 2008. DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 On April 21, 2008 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008), the Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion On April 2, 2008, the FAA issued AD 2008–08–06, amendment 39–15458 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008). That AD applies to all Bombardier Model CL– 600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–600), CL–600–2A12 (CL–601), and CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, and CL–604) airplanes. That AD requires revising the airplane flight manuals (AFMs) to include new cold weather operations limitations and E:\FR\FM\16OCR1.SGM 16OCR1 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 201 / Thursday, October 16, 2008 / Rules and Regulations procedures. That AD resulted from reports of uncommanded roll during take-off. The actions specified in that AD are intended to prevent possible loss of control on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing surfaces. Actions Since AD Was Issued The preamble to AD 2008–08–06 specified that we considered the requirements ‘‘interim action’’ and that Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) advised that it was developing further actions, such as crew awareness and training with regard to winter operations to address the unsafe condition addressed by that AD. That AD explains that we might consider further rulemaking if those further actions are developed, approved, and available. TCCA has now advised us that the manufacturer has developed these actions, and we have determined that further rulemaking is indeed necessary; this AD follows from that determination. Relevant Service Information Bombardier has issued the temporary revisions (TRs) listed in the ‘‘Temporary Revisions’’ table. The temporary revisions describe limitations that include tactile inspections for ice during certain weather conditions, limitations and procedures for use of wing and cowl anti-ice during certain taxiing or 61337 take-off conditions, and take-off limitations to reduce high-pitch attitudes during rotation. The temporary revisions also describe a limitation, effective November 1, 2008, that requires flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations. Accomplishing the actions specified in the service information is intended to adequately address the unsafe condition. TCCA mandated the service information and issued Canadian airworthiness directives CF–2008–15R1 and CF–2008– 16R1, both dated August 20, 2008 (referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to ensure the continued airworthiness of these airplanes in Canada.

FAA’s Determination and Requirements of This AD This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service information referenced above. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. Therefore, we are issuing this AD to supersede AD 2008–08–06. This new AD retains certain requirements of the existing AD. This AD also requires revising the AFMs to include a VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:18 Oct 15, 2008 Jkt 217001 Temporary Revision RJ/ August 7, 2008 ........ August 7, 2008 ........ requirement for flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations. Differences Between This AD and the Canadian Airworthiness Directives The Canadian airworthiness directives specify that operators should advise flightcrews of the changes introduced by the TRs; and review the ‘‘Pilot’s Checklist’’ to ensure that the instructions regarding selection of the wing anti-ice system to ‘‘ON,’’ as specified in the AFM Limitations section, are incorporated. We do not require these actions because there is no method to determine compliance with these actions. PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Canadair Challenger CL–600–1A11 AFM.

Change to Existing AD This AD retains certain requirements of AD 2008–08–06; however, certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding paragraph identifiers have changed in this AD, as listed in the following table: REVISED PARAGRAPH IDENTIFIERS Requirement in AD 2008–08–06 Paragraph (f) .............

Paragraph (g). Paragraph (j). 61338 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 201 / Thursday, October 16, 2008 / Rules and Regulations FAA’s Justification and Determination of the Effective Date We are rapidly approaching the ice/ snow season and the pilot training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations must be accomplished before the season begins. Because of our requirement to promote safe flight of civil aircraft and thus, the critical need to prevent uncommanded roll during take-off and the short compliance time involved with this action, this AD must be issued immediately. Because an unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of this AD, we find that notice and opportunity for prior public comment hereon are impracticable and that good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than 30 days. rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES Comments Invited This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight safety, and we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA– 2008–1096; Directorate Identifier 2008– NM–158–AD’’ at the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this AD because of those comments. We will post all comments we receive, without change, to https:// www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we receive about this AD. 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:18 Oct 15, 2008 Jkt 217001 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 the regulation: 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); 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. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. Adoption of the Amendment Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends part 39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 39) as follows: ■ PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows: ■ Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. § 39.13 [Amended] 2. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) amends § 39.13 by removing amendment 39–15458 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008) and adding the following new AD: ■ 2008–21–09 Bombardier, Inc. (Formerly Canadair): Docket No. FAA–2008–1096; PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Directorate Identifier 2008–NM–158–AD; Amendment 39–15693. Effective Date (a) This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008. Affected ADs (b) This AD supersedes AD 2008–08–06. Applicability (c) This AD applies to all Bombardier Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–600), CL–600– 2A12 (CL–601), CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, & CL–604) airplanes, and Model CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes, certificated in any category. Note 1: Some Model CL–600–2B16 (CL– 604) airplanes might be referred to by a marketing designation as CL–605. Note 2: This AD requires revisions to certain operator maintenance documents to include new inspections. Compliance with these inspections is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the areas addressed by these inspections, the operator may not be able to accomplish the inspections described in the revisions. In this situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must request approval for an alternative method of compliance according to paragraph (j) of this AD. The request should include a description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure the continued operational safety of the airplane. Unsafe Condition (d) This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll during take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of control on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing surfaces. Compliance (e) You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done. Restatement of AD 2008–08–06 Revision to Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) (f) Within 7 days after April 21, 2008 (the effective date of AD 2008–08–06), revise the applicable sections of the applicable AFM by inserting a copy of the applicable temporary revision (TR) listed in Table 1 of this AD. Thereafter, operate the airplanes per the limitation specified in the applicable TR, except as provided by paragraphs (h) and (j) of this AD. Doing the revision required by paragraph (h) of this AD terminates the requirements of this paragraph. (g) When information identical to that in a TR specified in paragraph (f) of this AD has been included in the general revisions of the applicable AFM, the general revisions may be inserted into the AFM, and the TR may be removed from that AFM.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 747–400, 747–400D, and 747–400F series airplanes. This AD requires installing an extension tube to the existing pump discharge port of the scavenge pump on the outboard side of the center fuel tank in the main fuel tank #2. This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent a fire or explosion in the fuel tank and consequent loss of the airplane. This AD is effective November 20, 2008. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of November 20, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to include an airworthiness directive (AD) that would apply to certain Boeing Model 747–400, 747– 400D, and 747–400F series airplanes. That NPRM was published in the Federal Register on June 18, 2008 (73 FR 34663). That NPRM proposed to require installing an extension tube to the existing pump discharge port of the scavenge pump on the outboard side of the center fuel tank in the main fuel tank #2. Comments We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. We considered the comments received. Support for the NPRM Boeing concurs with the contents of the NPRM. Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA), supports the intent of the NPRM. Request To Reduce the Compliance Time ALPA feels that the 60-month compliance time should be reduced to 24 months. ALPA states that a shorter compliance time should be imposed given the number of affected aircraft and the time required for installation of tubing. We disagree. In developing the compliance time for this NPRM, we considered not only the safety implications of the identified unsafe condition, but the average utilization rate of the affected fleet, the practical aspects of an orderly modification of the fleet during regular maintenance periods, the availability of required PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 parts, and the time necessary for the rulemaking process. The compliance time is determined to be appropriate. Therefore, we have not changed the AD in this regard. Conclusion We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received, and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD affects 31 airplanes of U.S. registry. It takes about 16 work-hours per product to comply with this AD. The average labor rate is $80 per work-hour. Required parts cost about $900 per product. Based on these figures, the cost of this AD to the U.S. operators is $67,580, or $2,180 per product. 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 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: E:\FR\FM\16OCR1.SGM 16OCR1

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive
(AD) that applies to all Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet
Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12
(CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes.
The existing AD currently requires revising the airplane flight manuals
(AFMs) to include new cold weather operations limitations and
procedures. This AD requires revising the AFMs to include a requirement
for flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and
winter operations. This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll
during take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of
control on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice,
snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing
surfaces.

DATES: This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of October 31,
2008.
On April 21, 2008 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008), the Director of
the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain
publications listed in this AD.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

On April 2, 2008, the FAA issued AD 2008-08-06, amendment 39-15458
(73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008). That AD applies to all Bombardier Model
CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes and Model CL-600-
1A11 (CL-600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), and CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-
601-3R, and CL-604) airplanes. That AD requires revising the airplane
flight manuals (AFMs) to include new cold weather operations
limitations and

[[Page 61337]]

procedures. That AD resulted from reports of uncommanded roll during
take-off. The actions specified in that AD are intended to prevent
possible loss of control on take-off resulting from even small amounts
of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing leading edges or forward
upper wing surfaces.

Actions Since AD Was Issued

The preamble to AD 2008-08-06 specified that we considered the
requirements ``interim action'' and that Transport Canada Civil
Aviation (TCCA) advised that it was developing further actions, such as
crew awareness and training with regard to winter operations to address
the unsafe condition addressed by that AD. That AD explains that we
might consider further rulemaking if those further actions are
developed, approved, and available. TCCA has now advised us that the
manufacturer has developed these actions, and we have determined that
further rulemaking is indeed necessary; this AD follows from that
determination.

Relevant Service Information

Bombardier has issued the temporary revisions (TRs) listed in the
``Temporary Revisions'' table. The temporary revisions describe
limitations that include tactile inspections for ice during certain
weather conditions, limitations and procedures for use of wing and cowl
anti-ice during certain taxiing or take-off conditions, and take-off
limitations to reduce high-pitch attitudes during rotation. The
temporary revisions also describe a limitation, effective November 1,
2008, that requires flightcrew training regarding enhanced take-off
procedures and winter operations. Accomplishing the actions specified
in the service information is intended to adequately address the unsafe
condition. TCCA mandated the service information and issued Canadian
airworthiness directives CF-2008-15R1 and CF-2008-16R1, both dated
August 20, 2008 (referred to after this as ``the MCAI''), to ensure the
continued airworthiness of these airplanes in Canada.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD

This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to our bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, we have
been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. We are issuing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition
exists and is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same
type design.
Therefore, we are issuing this AD to supersede AD 2008-08-06. This
new AD retains certain requirements of the existing AD. This AD also
requires revising the AFMs to include a requirement for flightcrew
training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations.

Differences Between This AD and the Canadian Airworthiness Directives

The Canadian airworthiness directives specify that operators should
advise flightcrews of the changes introduced by the TRs; and review the
``Pilot's Checklist'' to ensure that the instructions regarding
selection of the wing anti-ice system to ``ON,'' as specified in the
AFM Limitations section, are incorporated. We do not require these
actions because there is no method to determine compliance with these
actions.

Change to Existing AD

This AD retains certain requirements of AD 2008-08-06; however,
certain paragraphs have been rearranged. As a result, the corresponding
paragraph identifiers have changed in this AD, as listed in the
following table:

[[Page 61338]]

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

We are rapidly approaching the ice/snow season and the pilot
training regarding enhanced take-off procedures and winter operations
must be accomplished before the season begins. Because of our
requirement to promote safe flight of civil aircraft and thus, the
critical need to prevent uncommanded roll during take-off and the short
compliance time involved with this action, this AD must be issued
immediately.
Because an unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate
adoption of this AD, we find that notice and opportunity for prior
public comment hereon are impracticable and that good cause exists for
making this amendment effective in less than 30 days.

Comments Invited

This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to
provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite
you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send
your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include
``Docket No. FAA-2008-1096; Directorate Identifier 2008-NM-158-AD'' at
the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the
overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this
AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date and may
amend this AD because of those comments.
We will post all comments we receive, without change, to https://
www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this AD.

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 the regulation:
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); 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

Adoption of the Amendment

0
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator,
the FAA amends part 39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part
39) as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.

Sec. 39.13 [Amended]

0
2. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) amends Sec. 39.13 by
removing amendment 39-15458 (73 FR 19989, April 14, 2008) and adding
the following new AD:

2008-21-09 Bombardier, Inc. (Formerly Canadair): Docket No. FAA-
2008-1096; Directorate Identifier 2008-NM-158-AD; Amendment 39-
15693.

Effective Date

(a) This AD becomes effective October 31, 2008.

Affected ADs

(b) This AD supersedes AD 2008-08-06.

Applicability

(c) This AD applies to all Bombardier Model CL-600-1A11 (CL-
600), CL-600-2A12 (CL-601), CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A, CL-601-3R, & CL-
604) airplanes, and Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 &
440) airplanes, certificated in any category.

Note 1: Some Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-604) airplanes might be
referred to by a marketing designation as CL-605.

Note 2: This AD requires revisions to certain operator
maintenance documents to include new inspections. Compliance with
these inspections is required by 14 CFR 91.403(c). For airplanes
that have been previously modified, altered, or repaired in the
areas addressed by these inspections, the operator may not be able
to accomplish the inspections described in the revisions. In this
situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), the operator must
request approval for an alternative method of compliance according
to paragraph (j) of this AD. The request should include a
description of changes to the required inspections that will ensure
the continued operational safety of the airplane.

Unsafe Condition

(d) This AD results from reports of uncommanded roll during
take-off. We are issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of control
on take-off resulting from even small amounts of frost, ice, snow,
or slush on the wing leading edges or forward upper wing surfaces.

Compliance

(e) You are responsible for having the actions required by this
AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the
actions have already been done.

Restatement of AD 2008-08-06

Revision to Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)

(f) Within 7 days after April 21, 2008 (the effective date of AD
2008-08-06), revise the applicable sections of the applicable AFM by
inserting a copy of the applicable temporary revision (TR) listed in
Table 1 of this AD. Thereafter, operate the airplanes per the
limitation specified in the applicable TR, except as provided by
paragraphs (h) and (j) of this AD. Doing the revision required by
paragraph (h) of this AD terminates the requirements of this
paragraph.
(g) When information identical to that in a TR specified in
paragraph (f) of this AD has been included in the general revisions
of the applicable AFM, the general revisions may be inserted into
the AFM, and the TR may be removed from that AFM.
