airplanes of these same type designs, we
issued AD 2008–01–01 to prevent the
failure of a certain feature of the flight
deck door. The AD requires
accomplishing the actions specified in
the service information previously
described.
We found that notice and opportunity

200, 767–300, and 767–400ER series
airplanes; and Model 777–200 series
airplanes. These conditions still exist,
and the AD is hereby published in the
Federal Register as an amendment to
section 39.13 of the Federal Aviation
Regulations (14 CFR 39.13) to make it
effective to all persons.
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–
2010–0638; Directorate Identifier 2007–
NM–333–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
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.
You can find our regulatory
evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.

ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: We are adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above. This AD results
from mandatory continuing
airworthiness information (MCAI)
originated by an aviation authority of
another country to identify and correct
an unsafe condition on an aviation
product. The MCAI describes the unsafe
condition as:
15:16 Jun 30, 2010
Jkt 220001
Two cases of a crack on a ‘‘dry’’ ADG [air
driven generator] (Hamilton Sundstrand part
number in the 761339 series), in the aft area
of the strut and generator housing assembly,
have been reported on CL–600–2B19 aircraft.
The same part number is also installed on
CL–600–2B16 (CL–604) aircraft. Investigation
determined that the crack was in an area of
the strut where the wall thickness of the
casting was below specification, due to a
manufacturing anomaly in a specific batch of
ADGs. Structural failure and departure of the
ADG during deployment could possibly
result in damage to the aircraft structure. If
deployment were activated by a dual engine
shutdown, ADG structural failure would also
result in loss of hydraulics for the flight
controls.

The unsafe condition is possible loss of
control of the airplane. We are issuing

unsafe condition on these products.

The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of certain publications listed in this AD
as of August 5, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would
apply to the specified products. That
NPRM was published in the Federal
Register on January 4, 2010 (75 FR 91).
That NPRM proposed to correct an
unsafe condition for the specified
products. The MCAI states:
Two cases of a crack on a ‘‘dry’’ ADG [air
driven generator] (Hamilton Sundstrand part
number in the 761339 series), in the aft area
of the strut and generator housing assembly,
have been reported on CL–600–2B19 aircraft.
The same part number is also installed on
CL–600–2B16 (CL–604) aircraft. Investigation
determined that the crack was in an area of
the strut where the wall thickness of the
casting was below specification, due to a
manufacturing anomaly in a specific batch of
ADGs. Structural failure and departure of the
ADG during deployment could possibly
result in damage to the aircraft structure. If
deployment were activated by a dual engine
shutdown, ADG structural failure would also
result in loss of hydraulics for the flight
controls.
This directive gives instructions to check
the part number of the installed ADG and, for
ADGs with a part number in the 761339
series, the serial numbers of the ADG and the
strut and generator housing assembly are also
to be checked. If these serial numbers are
within specified ranges * * *, initial and

The service bulletins describe procedures for replacing a certain

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD
Since the unsafe condition described is likely to exist or develop
on other airplanes of these same type designs, we issued AD 2008-01-01
to prevent the failure of a certain feature of the flight deck door.
The AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in the service
information previously described.
We found that notice and opportunity for prior public comment on AD
2008-01-01 were contrary to the public interest, and good cause existed
to make the AD effective immediately by individual notices issued on
December 26, 2007, to all known U.S. owners and operators of certain
Model 737-200, -300, -400, -500, -600, -700, -800, and -900 series
airplanes; Model 747-400 series airplanes; Model 757-200 and
[[Page 38010]]
757-300 series airplanes; Model 767-200, 767-300, and 767-400ER series
airplanes; and Model 777-200 series airplanes. These conditions still
exist, and the AD is hereby published in the Federal Register as an
amendment to section 39.13 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR
39.13) to make it effective to all persons.
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-2010-0638; Directorate Identifier 2007-NM-333-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
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.
You can find our regulatory evaluation and the estimated costs of
compliance in the AD Docket.
