SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA Emergency AD No. 2010–0043R1–E, dated March 26, 2010, to correct an unsafe condition for the specified Eurocopter model helicopters. EASA advises of the loss of the right-hand (RH) hydraulic power system on an AS332L2 helicopter. The pilot saw the hydraulic system ‘‘low level’’ warning light come on during the approach phase. Investigation revealed a hydraulic fluid leak from the hydraulic pump casing due to deterioration of the pump seals resulting from an incorrectly positioned compensating piston liner. EASA states that this non-compliant repair process was used by the following repair stations: HELIKOPTER SERVICE, ASTEC HELICOPTER SERVICE, and HELI-ONE. They further state that if this condition occurs on PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 both pumps of a helicopter, it could result in loss of the RH and left-hand (LH) hydraulic power systems and consequently may lead to the loss of helicopter controllability. Related Service Information Eurocopter has issued an Emergency Alert Service Bulletin (EASB) with two numbers (01.00.78 and 01.00.43), dated March 11, 2010. EASB No. 01.00.78 applies to United States typecertificated Model AS332C, L, L1, and L2 helicopters; civil Model AS332C1 not type-certificated in the United States; and military Model AS332B, B1, M, M1, and F1 helicopters that are not type-certificated in the United States. EASB No. 01.00.43 applies to military Model AS532A2, U2, UC, AC, UL, AL, SC, and UE helicopters that are not type-certificated in the United States. The EASB specifies identifying affected hydraulic pumps, prohibiting flights for all helicopters fitted with two of the affected hydraulic pumps until at least one of the affected pumps is replaced, replacing all affected hydraulic pumps with airworthy pumps within 10 months, and returning any affected hydraulic pump to have it checked and, where necessary, reconditioned. EASA classified this EASB as mandatory and issued EASA Emergency AD No. 2010–0043R1–E, dated March 26, 2010, to ensure the continued airworthiness of these helicopters. FAA’s Evaluation and Unsafe Condition Determination These helicopters have been approved by the aviation authority of France and are approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to our bilateral agreement with France, EASA, their technical representative, has notified us of the unsafe condition described in the EASA AD. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all information provided by EASA and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other helicopters of these same type designs. Differences Between This AD and the EASA AD We refer to flight hours as hours timein-service (TIS). We require each affected hydraulic pump be replaced with an airworthy pump within 15 hours TIS. We do not use the calendar date used in the EASA AD because that date has already passed. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of This AD This unsafe condition is likely to exist or develop on other helicopters of the same type design. Therefore, this AD is E:\FR\FM\30SER1.SGM 30SER1 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 189 / Thursday, September 30, 2010 / Rules and Regulations being issued to prevent loss of the hydraulic power system and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter. This AD requires, within 15 hours TIS, replacing each affected hydraulic pump with an airworthy hydraulic pump or, if the replacement hydraulic pump is one to which this AD applies, the hydraulic pump must have been overhauled or repaired after February 1, 2010. The short compliance time involved is required because the previously described critical unsafe condition can adversely affect the controllability of the helicopter. Therefore, replacing each affected hydraulic pump with an airworthy hydraulic pump is required within 15 hours TIS, a very short compliance time, and this AD must be issued immediately. Since a situation exists that requires the immediate adoption of this regulation, it is found 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. jdjones on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with RULES Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD will affect about 6 helicopters of U. S. registry. We also estimate that it will take about 1⁄2 work-hour to review maintenance records for the presence of an affected hydraulic pump and 2 work-hours to change out a hydraulic pump. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $40,448 to replace a hydraulic pump. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators is $122,109, assuming 3 hydraulic pumps are replaced. Comments Invited This AD is a final rule that involves requirements that affect flight safety and was not preceded by notice and an opportunity for public comment; however, we invite you to submit any written data, views, or arguments regarding this AD. Send your comments to an address listed under ADDRESSES. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2010–0907; Directorate Identifier 2010–SW–044– AD’’ at the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of the AD.

You may review the DOT’s complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (65 FR 19477–78). 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 an economic evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this AD. See the AD docket to examine the economic evaluation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA 
Emergency AD No. 2010-0043R1-E, dated March 26, 2010, to correct an 
unsafe condition for the specified Eurocopter model helicopters. EASA 
advises of the loss of the right-hand (RH) hydraulic power system on an 
AS332L2 helicopter. The pilot saw the hydraulic system ``low level'' 
warning light come on during the approach phase. Investigation revealed 
a hydraulic fluid leak from the hydraulic pump casing due to 
deterioration of the pump seals resulting from an incorrectly 
positioned compensating piston liner. EASA states that this non-
compliant repair process was used by the following repair stations: 
HELIKOPTER SERVICE, ASTEC HELICOPTER SERVICE, and HELI-ONE. They 
further state that if this condition occurs on both pumps of a 
helicopter, it could result in loss of the RH and left-hand (LH) 
hydraulic power systems and consequently may lead to the loss of 
helicopter controllability.

Related Service Information

    Eurocopter has issued an Emergency Alert Service Bulletin (EASB) 
with two numbers (01.00.78 and 01.00.43), dated March 11, 2010. EASB 
No. 01.00.78 applies to United States type-certificated Model AS332C, 
L, L1, and L2 helicopters; civil Model AS332C1 not type-certificated in 
the United States; and military Model AS332B, B1, M, M1, and F1 
helicopters that are not type-certificated in the United States. EASB 
No. 01.00.43 applies to military Model AS532A2, U2, UC, AC, UL, AL, SC, 
and UE helicopters that are not type-certificated in the United States. 
The EASB specifies identifying affected hydraulic pumps, prohibiting 
flights for all helicopters fitted with two of the affected hydraulic 
pumps until at least one of the affected pumps is replaced, replacing 
all affected hydraulic pumps with airworthy pumps within 10 months, and 
returning any affected hydraulic pump to have it checked and, where 
necessary, reconditioned.
    EASA classified this EASB as mandatory and issued EASA Emergency AD 
No. 2010-0043R1-E, dated March 26, 2010, to ensure the continued 
airworthiness of these helicopters.

FAA's Evaluation and Unsafe Condition Determination

    These helicopters have been approved by the aviation authority of 
France and are approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to 
our bilateral agreement with France, EASA, their technical 
representative, has notified us of the unsafe condition described in 
the EASA AD. We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all 
information provided by EASA and determined the unsafe condition exists 
and is likely to exist or develop on other helicopters of these same 
type designs.

Differences Between This AD and the EASA AD

    We refer to flight hours as hours time-in-service (TIS). We require 
each affected hydraulic pump be replaced with an airworthy pump within 
15 hours TIS. We do not use the calendar date used in the EASA AD 
because that date has already passed.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This AD

    This unsafe condition is likely to exist or develop on other 
helicopters of the same type design. Therefore, this AD is

[[Page 60303]]

being issued to prevent loss of the hydraulic power system and 
subsequent loss of control of the helicopter. This AD requires, within 
15 hours TIS, replacing each affected hydraulic pump with an airworthy 
hydraulic pump or, if the replacement hydraulic pump is one to which 
this AD applies, the hydraulic pump must have been overhauled or 
repaired after February 1, 2010.
    The short compliance time involved is required because the 
previously described critical unsafe condition can adversely affect the 
controllability of the helicopter. Therefore, replacing each affected 
hydraulic pump with an airworthy hydraulic pump is required within 15 
hours TIS, a very short compliance time, and this AD must be issued 
immediately.
    Since a situation exists that requires the immediate adoption of 
this regulation, it is found 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.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect about 6 helicopters of U. S. 
registry. We also estimate that it will take about \1/2\ work-hour to 
review maintenance records for the presence of an affected hydraulic 
pump and 2 work-hours to change out a hydraulic pump. The average labor 
rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $40,448 to 
replace a hydraulic pump. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost 
of this AD on U.S. operators is $122,109, assuming 3 hydraulic pumps 
are replaced.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements that affect 
flight safety and was not preceded by notice and an opportunity for 
public comment; however, we invite you to submit any written data, 
views, or arguments regarding this AD. Send your comments to an address 
listed under ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2010-0907; Directorate 
Identifier 2010-SW-044-AD'' at the beginning of your comments. We 
specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory, economic, 
environmental, and energy aspects of the AD. We will consider all 
comments received by the closing date and may amend the AD in light 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 
with FAA personnel concerning this AD. Using the search function of the 
docket Web site, you can find and read the comments to any of our 
dockets, including the name of the individual who sent the comment. You 
may review the DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal 
Register published on April 11, 2000 (65 FR 19477-78).

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 an economic evaluation of the estimated costs to comply 
with this AD. See the AD docket to examine the economic evaluation.

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.
