We are adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark
0070 and 0100 airplanes. This AD was
prompted by reports of burned contacts
in a certain production break plug and
its corresponding receptacle. This AD
requires modifying galley power supply
wiring by disconnecting it from the
affected plug/receptacle and
reconnecting the power supply wiring
through splices. We are issuing this AD
to prevent a high electrical load, which
might lead to overheating of the galley
power supply wiring and/or the
electrical connector and consequent
smoke or fire in the galley area, which
could result in damage to the airplane
and injury to occupants.
DATES: This AD becomes effective
October 29, 2012.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of a certain publication listed in this AD
as of October 29, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
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 June 12, 2012 (77 FR 34872).
That NPRM proposed to correct an
unsafe condition for the specified
products. The MCAI states:
Reports have been received about burned
contacts in production break plug P 4259B
and corresponding receptacle J 4259A. After
investigation, it was concluded that the high
E:\FR\FM\24SER1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 185 / Monday, September 24, 2012 / Rules and Regulations
electrical load on the contacts M, L and X,
in combination with the electrical loads on
the adjacent connections, may have resulted
in these occurrences.
This condition, if not detected and
corrected, can lead to overheating of the
galley power supply wiring and/or the
electrical connector and consequent smoke or
fire in the galley area, possibly resulting in
damage to the aeroplane and injury to
occupants.
For the reasons described above, this
[European Aviation Safety Agency] AD
requires modification of the galley power
supply wiring by disconnecting it from the
affected plug/receptacle and reconnecting the
power supply wiring through splices.
You may obtain further information by
examining the MCAI in the AD docket.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to
participate in developing this AD. We
received no comments on the NPRM (77
FR 34872, June 12, 2012) or on the
determination of the cost to the public.
Conclusion
We reviewed the available data and
determined that air safety and the
public interest require adopting the AD
as proposed—except for minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these
minor changes:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM (77 FR
34872, June 12, 2012) for correcting the
unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden
upon the public than was already
proposed in the NPRM (77 FR 34872,
June 12, 2012).
Costs of Compliance
emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with RULES
We estimate that this AD will affect 4
products of U.S. registry. We also
estimate that it will take about 4 workhours per product to comply with the
basic requirements of this AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per work-hour.
Required parts will cost about $210 per
product. Where the service information
lists required parts costs that are
covered under warranty, we have
assumed that there will be no charge for
these parts. As we do not control
warranty coverage for affected parties,
some parties may incur costs higher
than estimated here. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of this AD
to the U.S. operators to be $2,200, or
$550 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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
10:52 Sep 21, 2012
Jkt 226001
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 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 the
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures
(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in
Alaska; and
4. 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.
Examining the AD Docket
You may examine the AD docket on
the Internet at https://
www.regulations.gov; or in person at the
Docket Operations office between 9 a.m.
and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal holidays. The AD docket
contains the NPRM (77 FR 34872, June
12, 2012), the regulatory evaluation, any
comments received, and other
information. The street address for the

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 June 12, 2012 (77 FR
34872). That NPRM proposed to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:
Reports have been received about burned contacts in production
break plug P 4259B and corresponding receptacle J 4259A. After
investigation, it was concluded that the high
[[Page 58766]]
electrical load on the contacts M, L and X, in combination with the
electrical loads on the adjacent connections, may have resulted in
these occurrences.
This condition, if not detected and corrected, can lead to
overheating of the galley power supply wiring and/or the electrical
connector and consequent smoke or fire in the galley area, possibly
resulting in damage to the aeroplane and injury to occupants.
For the reasons described above, this [European Aviation Safety
Agency] AD requires modification of the galley power supply wiring
by disconnecting it from the affected plug/receptacle and
reconnecting the power supply wiring through splices.
You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (77 FR 34872, June 12,
2012) or on the determination of the cost to the public.
Conclusion
We reviewed the available data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed--except for
minor editorial changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (77 FR 34872, June 12, 2012) for correcting the unsafe condition;
and
Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM (77 FR 34872, June 12, 2012).
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD will affect 4 products of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take about 4 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about $210 per product.
Where the service information lists required parts costs that are
covered under warranty, we have assumed that there will be no charge
for these parts. As we do not control warranty coverage for affected
parties, some parties may incur costs higher than estimated here. Based
on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD to the U.S. operators
to be $2,200, or $550 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
We 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 the DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979);
3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; and
4. 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.
Examining the AD Docket
You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov; or in person at the Docket Operations office
