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 published in the Federal
Register on July 17, 2012 (77 FR 41937).
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
That NPRM proposed to require
inspecting certain logic modules to
determine if certain cabin altitude/pitot
static heater module assemblies are
installed and replacing those assemblies
with a new assembly; and revising the
Non-Normal Procedures Section of the
AFM to include procedures for resetting
the pitot switch in the event of pitot
heater failure and for total loss of
airspeed indication.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to
participate in developing this AD. The
following presents the comments
received on the proposal (77 FR 41937,
July 17, 2012) and the FAA’s response
to each comment.
Request To Change Compliance Time
Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna)
requested that the NPRM (77 FR 41937,
July 17, 2012) use the compliance time
described in Cessna Service Letter
SL750–30–08, Revision 1, dated July 11,
2011, of within two years or 1,200 flight
hours after July 11, 2011 (The issue date
of Cessna Service Letter SL750–30–08,
Revision 1), whichever occurs first.
Cessna noted that the proposed NPRM
compliance time is within 600 flight
hours or one year after the effective date
of the AD, whichever occurs first.
Cessna stated that the NPRM
compliance time will extend the
compliance time beyond what is
suggested by Cessna Service Letter
SL750–30–08, Revision 1, dated July 11,
2011.
We disagree with the request to
change the compliance time. We
coordinated with Cessna regarding the
compliance time difference prior to
issuing the NPRM (77 FR 41937, July 17,
2012). We have determined that a
compliance time of within 600 flight
hours or one year after the effective date
of the AD (whichever occurs first) is an
appropriate compliance time to
adequately address the identified unsafe
condition. If additional data are
presented to justify a shorter
compliance time, we might consider
further rulemaking. We have not
changed the AD in this regard.
Request To Change Logic Module
Designators
Cessna requested that we change the
reference designators to the logic
modules in paragraph (g) of the NPRM
(77 FR 41937, July 17, 2012). Cessna
stated that NC006 and NC007 are the
correct reference designators for the
logic modules.
We agree to change the references
because we have determined that the
commenter’s stated references are
E:\FR\FM\07MRR1.SGM
07MRR1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 45 / Thursday, March 7, 2013 / Rules and Regulations
correct. We have changed paragraph (g)
of this AD to refer to the logic modules
as NC006 and NC007.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data,
considered the comments received, and
determined that air safety and the
public interest require adopting the AD
with the change described previously
and minor editorial changes. We have
determined that these minor changes:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM (77 FR
41937, July 17, 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 41937,
July 17, 2012).
14641
We also determined that these
changes will not increase the economic
burden on any operator or increase the
scope of the AD.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 210
airplanes of U.S. registry.
We estimate the following costs to
comply with this AD:

According to the manufacturer, some
of the costs of this AD may be covered
under warranty, thereby reducing the
cost impact on affected individuals. We
do not control warranty coverage for
affected individuals. As a result, we
have included all costs in our cost
estimate.
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
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
Parts cost
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),
(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.

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for all BAE
SYSTEMS (OPERATIONS) LIMITED
Model BAe 146 and Avro 146–RJ series
airplanes. This AD was prompted by a
report that certain ceramic terminal
blocks, through which the wiring for the
engine fire extinguishers, fire detection
circuits, and engine and intake anti-ice
system are routed, have been found to
have moisture ingress, which can
degrade the insulation resistance of the
ceramic terminal blocks. This AD
requires a one-time insulation resistance
test of ceramic terminal blocks, and if
necessary, replacement of the blocks.
We are issuing this AD to prevent latent
failure of the number 2 fire bottle,
which, in the event of an engine fire,
could result in failure of the fire bottle
to discharge when activated and
possibly preventing the flightcrew from
extinguishing an engine fire.
DATES: This AD becomes effective April
11, 2013.
The Director of the Federal Register

to determine if certain cabin altitude/pitot static heater module
assemblies are installed and replacing those assemblies with a new

Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the proposal
(77 FR 41937, July 17, 2012) and the FAA's response to each comment.
Request To Change Compliance Time
Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) requested that the NPRM (77 FR
41937, July 17, 2012) use the compliance time described in Cessna
Service Letter SL750-30-08, Revision 1, dated July 11, 2011, of within
two years or 1,200 flight hours after July 11, 2011 (The issue date of
Cessna Service Letter SL750-30-08, Revision 1), whichever occurs first.
Cessna noted that the proposed NPRM compliance time is within 600
flight hours or one year after the effective date of the AD, whichever
occurs first. Cessna stated that the NPRM compliance time will extend
the compliance time beyond what is suggested by Cessna Service Letter
SL750-30-08, Revision 1, dated July 11, 2011.
We disagree with the request to change the compliance time. We
coordinated with Cessna regarding the compliance time difference prior
to issuing the NPRM (77 FR 41937, July 17, 2012). We have determined
that a compliance time of within 600 flight hours or one year after the
effective date of the AD (whichever occurs first) is an appropriate
compliance time to adequately address the identified unsafe condition.
If additional data are presented to justify a shorter compliance time,
we might consider further rulemaking. We have not changed the AD in
this regard.
Request To Change Logic Module Designators
Cessna requested that we change the reference designators to the
logic modules in paragraph (g) of the NPRM (77 FR 41937, July 17,
2012). Cessna stated that NC006 and NC007 are the correct reference
designators for the logic modules.
We agree to change the references because we have determined that
the commenter's stated references are
[[Page 14641]]
correct. We have changed paragraph (g) of this AD to refer to the logic
modules as NC006 and NC007.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
the AD with the change described previously and minor editorial
changes. We have determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM (77 FR 41937, July 17, 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 41937, July 17, 2012).
We also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the AD.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 210 airplanes of U.S. registry.
We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:
Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per Cost on U.S.
Action Labor cost Parts cost product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inspection......................... 2 work-hours x $85 per hour $0 $170 $35,700
= $170.
Revision........................... 1 work-hour x $85 per hour 0 85 17,850
= $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We estimate the following costs to do any necessary replacements
that would be required based on the results of the inspection. We have
no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these
replacements:
On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per
Action Labor cost Parts cost product
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Replacement................................ 1 work-hour x $85 per hour = $85... $4,058 $4,143
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be
covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected
individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected
individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost
estimate.
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),
(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.
