ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM).
AGENCY:
We propose to adopt a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Airbus Model A330–200, –200
Freighter, and –300 series airplanes.
This proposed AD was prompted by a
report that a certain wire harness
located in the tail cone has wiring of a
narrower gauge than design requires.
This proposed AD would require
replacing the affected wire harness. We
are proposing this AD to prevent
damage to the affected wiring, which
could create an ignition source in an
area that might contain fuel vapors,
possibly resulting in an uncontrolled
fire and subsequent loss of the airplane.
DATES: We must receive comments on
this proposed AD by August 5, 2013.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments by
any of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to

Discussion
The European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European
Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2012–0182,
dated September 11, 2012 (referred to
PO 00000
Frm 00018
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the
MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition
for the specified products. The MCAI
states:
On a production aeroplane, it has been
discovered that wires in harness 5877VB,
installed in the Tail Cone (Section 19.1) and
connected to the Auxiliary Power Unit
starter, have a section smaller [narrower]
than required by design. Section 19 is a
flammable fluid leakage zone, adjacent to a
fuel tank (trim tank) and is open with Section
19.1. The results of the investigation show
that this issue is a manufacturing quality
issue. Airbus identified a list of other
aeroplanes that are affected.
This condition, if not corrected, could
damage the wiring which may create an
ignition source in an area that may contain
fuel vapours, possibly resulting in an
uncontrolled fire and subsequent loss of the
aeroplane.
*
*
*
*
*
For the reasons described above, this
[EASA] AD requires the replacement of the
affected wiring harness.
You may obtain further information by
examining the MCAI in the AD docket.
Relevant Service Information
Airbus has issued Mandatory Service
Bulletin A330–92–3116, dated April 25,
2012. The actions described in this
service information are intended to
correct the unsafe condition identified
in the MCAI.
FAA’s Determination and Requirements
of This Proposed 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 proposing 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.
Costs of Compliance
Based on the service information, we
estimate that this proposed AD would
affect about 1 product of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it would take
about 4 work-hours per product to
comply with the basic requirements of
this proposed AD. The average labor
rate is $85 per work-hour. Required
parts would cost about $2,920 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
E:\FR\FM\21JNP1.SGM
21JNP1
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 120 / Friday, June 21, 2013 / Proposed Rules
warranty coverage for affected parties,
some parties may incur costs higher
than estimated here. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of the
proposed AD on U.S. operators to be
$3,260, or $3,260 per product.
TKELLEY on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
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 proposed AD
would not have federalism implications
under Executive Order 13132. This
proposed AD would 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 this proposed 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);
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 proposed AD and placed it in the
AD docket.

Discussion
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2012-0182, dated September 11, 2012 (referred
to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified
products. The MCAI states:
On a production aeroplane, it has been discovered that wires in
harness 5877VB, installed in the Tail Cone (Section 19.1) and
connected to the Auxiliary Power Unit starter, have a section
smaller [narrower] than required by design. Section 19 is a
flammable fluid leakage zone, adjacent to a fuel tank (trim tank)
and is open with Section 19.1. The results of the investigation show
that this issue is a manufacturing quality issue. Airbus identified
a list of other aeroplanes that are affected.
This condition, if not corrected, could damage the wiring which
may create an ignition source in an area that may contain fuel
vapours, possibly resulting in an uncontrolled fire and subsequent
loss of the aeroplane.

For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD requires the
replacement of the affected wiring harness.
You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.
Relevant Service Information
Airbus has issued Mandatory Service Bulletin A330-92-3116, dated
April 25, 2012. The actions described in this service information are
intended to correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.
FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed 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 proposing this AD because we
evaluated all pertinent information and determined an unsafe condition

Costs of Compliance
Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 1 product of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it
would take about 4 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $85 per
work-hour. Required parts would cost about $2,920 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
[[Page 37499]]
warranty coverage for affected parties, some parties may incur costs
higher than estimated here. Based on these figures, we estimate the
cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $3,260, or $3,260 per
product.
