ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
We are superseding
Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2007–10–
10 R1 for all Airbus Model A300 B4–
600, B4–600R, and F4–600R series
airplanes, and Model A300 C4–605R
Variant F airplanes (collectively called
Model A300–600 series airplanes). AD
2007–10–10 R1 required revising the
Airworthiness Limitations Section
(ALS) of the Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness to incorporate new
limitations for fuel tank systems. This
new AD requires revising the
maintenance program or inspection
program to incorporate revised fuel
maintenance and inspection tasks. This
AD was prompted by issuance of more
restrictive maintenance requirements
and/or airworthiness limitations by the
manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to
prevent the potential of ignition sources
inside fuel tanks, which, in combination
with flammable fuel vapors caused by
latent failures, alterations, repairs, or
maintenance actions, could result in
fuel tank explosions and consequent
loss of the airplane.
DATES: This AD becomes effective June
10, 2016.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of a certain publication listed in this AD
as of June 10, 2016.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of a certain other publication listed in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2007–10–10 R1,
Amendment 39–16134 (74 FR 65398,
December 10, 2009) (‘‘AD 2007–10–10
R1’’). AD 2007–10–10 R1 applied to all
Airbus Model A300 B4–600, B4–600R,
and F4–600R series airplanes, and
Model A300 C4–605R Variant F
airplanes (collectively called Model
A300–600 series airplanes). The NPRM
published in the Federal Register on
January 13, 2016 (81 FR 1573) (‘‘the
NPRM’’).
The European Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European
Union, has issued EASA Airworthiness
Directive 2014–0194, dated October 15,
2014 (referred to after this as the
Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness
Information, or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct
an unsafe condition on all Airbus Model
A300 B4–600, B4–600R, and F4–600R
series airplanes, and Model A300 C4–
605R Variant F airplanes (collectively
called Model A300–600 series
airplanes). The MCAI states:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
13:56 May 05, 2016
Jkt 238001
Prompted by an accident * * *, the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
published Special Federal Aviation
Regulation (SFAR) 88, [https://rgl.faa.gov/
Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/
rgFAR.nsf/0/EEFB3F94451
DC06286256C93004F5E07?OpenDocument&
Highlight=sfar 88], and the Joint Aviation
Authorities (JAA) published Interim Policy
INT/POL/25/12. In response to these
regulations, Airbus conducted a design
review to develop Fuel Airworthiness
Limitations (FAL) for Airbus on A300–600
and A300–600ST aeroplanes.
The FAL were specified in Airbus A300–
600 FAL document ref. 95A.1929/05 at issue
02 and in the A300–600 [Airworthiness
Limitation Section] ALS variation to FAL
document issue 02 ref. 0CVLG110007/C0S
issue 01, for A300–600 and A300–600ST
aeroplanes.
EASA issued [EASA] AD 2006–0201 to
require compliance with the FAL documents
(comprising maintenance/inspection tasks
and Critical Design Configuration Control
Limitations (CDCCL)).
EASA AD 2006–0201 was superseded by
EASA AD 2007–0095 (later revised) [which
corresponds to FAA AD 2007–10–10 R1,
Amendment 39–16134 (74 FR 65398,
December 10, 2009)], which retained the
original requirements and corrected and
updated the compliance paragraphs
concerning task ref. 28–18–00–03–1 and
CDCCLs.
Since EASA AD 2007–0095R1 was
published, Airbus issued A300–600 ALS Part
5, prompted by EASA policy statement
(EASA D2005/CPRO) which requests design
approval holders to integrate Fuel Tank
Safety items into an ALS document. The
A300–600 ALS Part 5 is approved by EASA.
Failure to comply with the items as
identified in Airbus A300–600 ALS Part 5
could result in a fuel tank explosion and
consequent loss of the aeroplane.
For the reasons described above, this
[EASA] AD retains the requirements of EASA
AD 2007–0095R1, which is superseded, and
requires implementation of the new and
more restrictive maintenance instructions
and/or airworthiness limitations as specified
in Airbus A300–600 ALS Part 5.
The unsafe condition is the potential
of ignition sources inside fuel tanks,
which, in combination with flammable
fuel vapors caused by latent failures,
alterations, repairs, or maintenance
actions, could result in fuel tank
explosions and consequent loss of the
airplane. You may examine the MCAI in
the AD docket on the Internet at
https://www.regulations.gov by searching
for and locating Docket No. FAA–2015–
8427.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to
participate in developing this AD. We
received no comments on the NPRM or
on the determination of the cost to the
public.

Explanation of Changes Made in This
AD
We have corrected certain paragraph
references in paragraph (g) and Note 1
to paragraph (g) of this AD.
We have revised certain document
citations in paragraph (h) of this AD.
This change is necessary to meet the
Office of the Federal Register’s
requirements for documents that are
incorporated by reference in this AD.
We have also determined that the
compliance time for revising the ALS to
incorporate certain CDCCLs specified in
paragraph (i) of this AD should be
within 12 months after June 27, 2007
(the effective date of AD 2007–10–10,
Amendment 39–15051 (72 FR 28827,
May 23, 2007) (‘‘AD 2007–10–10’’)). The
compliance time stated in the proposed
AD was ‘‘Within 12 months after the
effective date of this AD.’’ We have
revised paragraph (i) of this AD
accordingly. The proposed AD clearly
indicated that we intended to restate the
requirements of that paragraph from the
previous AD, with no changes.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data and
determined that air safety and the
public interest require adopting this AD
with the changes described previously,
except for minor editorial changes. We
have determined that these minor
changes:
• Are consistent with the intent that
was proposed in the NPRM for
correcting the unsafe condition; and
• Do not add any additional burden
upon the public than was already
proposed in the NPRM.
Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
Airbus has issued A300–600
Airworthiness Limitations Section Part
5—Fuel Airworthiness Limitations,
Revision 00, dated May 27, 2014. The
airworthiness limitations introduce
mandatory instructions and more
restrictive maintenance requirements.
This service information is reasonably
available because the interested parties
have access to it through their normal
course of business or by the means
identified in the ADDRESSES section.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 122
airplanes of U.S. registry.
The actions required by AD 2007–10–
10 R1, and retained in this AD take
about 2 work-hours per product, at an
average labor rate of $85 per work-hour.
Based on these figures, the estimated
cost of the actions that were required by
AD 2007–10–10 R1 is $170 per product.
E:\FR\FM\06MYR1.SGM
06MYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 88 / Friday, May 6, 2016 / Rules and Regulations
We also estimate that it takes about 1
work-hour per product to comply with
the basic requirements of this AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per work-hour.
Required parts will cost $0 per product.
Based on these figures, we estimate the
cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be
$10,370, or $85 per product.
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.

SUMMARY: We are superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2007-10-10 R1
for all Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series
airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes (collectively
called Model A300-600 series airplanes). AD 2007-10-10 R1 required
revising the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) of the
Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to incorporate new limitations
for fuel tank systems. This new AD requires revising the maintenance
program or inspection program to incorporate revised fuel maintenance
and inspection tasks. This AD was prompted by issuance of more
restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations
by the manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent the potential of
ignition sources inside fuel tanks, which, in combination with
flammable fuel vapors caused by latent failures, alterations, repairs,
or maintenance actions, could result in fuel tank explosions and
consequent loss of the airplane.
DATES: This AD becomes effective June 10, 2016.
The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in this AD as of June 10,
2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to supersede AD 2007-10-10 R1, Amendment 39-16134 (74 FR 65398,
December 10, 2009) (``AD 2007-10-10 R1''). AD 2007-10-10 R1 applied to
all Airbus Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes,
and Model A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes (collectively called Model
A300-600 series airplanes). The NPRM published in the Federal Register
on January 13, 2016 (81 FR 1573) (``the NPRM'').
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2014-0194, dated October 15, 2014 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition on all Airbus Model A300
B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes, and Model A300 C4-605R
Variant F airplanes (collectively called Model A300-600 series
airplanes). The MCAI states:
Prompted by an accident * * *, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) published Special Federal Aviation Regulation
(SFAR) 88, [https://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgFAR.nsf/0/EEFB3F94451DC06286256C93004F5E07?OpenDocument&Highlight=sfar 88],
and the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) published Interim Policy
INT/POL/25/12. In response to these regulations, Airbus conducted a
design review to develop Fuel Airworthiness Limitations (FAL) for
Airbus on A300-600 and A300-600ST aeroplanes.
The FAL were specified in Airbus A300-600 FAL document ref.
95A.1929/05 at issue 02 and in the A300-600 [Airworthiness
Limitation Section] ALS variation to FAL document issue 02 ref.
0CVLG110007/C0S issue 01, for A300-600 and A300-600ST aeroplanes.
EASA issued [EASA] AD 2006-0201 to require compliance with the
FAL documents (comprising maintenance/inspection tasks and Critical
Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL)).
EASA AD 2006-0201 was superseded by EASA AD 2007-0095 (later
revised) [which corresponds to FAA AD 2007-10-10 R1, Amendment 39-
16134 (74 FR 65398, December 10, 2009)], which retained the original
requirements and corrected and updated the compliance paragraphs
concerning task ref. 28-18-00-03-1 and CDCCLs.
Since EASA AD 2007-0095R1 was published, Airbus issued A300-600
ALS Part 5, prompted by EASA policy statement (EASA D2005/CPRO)
which requests design approval holders to integrate Fuel Tank Safety
items into an ALS document. The A300-600 ALS Part 5 is approved by
EASA.
Failure to comply with the items as identified in Airbus A300-
600 ALS Part 5 could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent
loss of the aeroplane.
For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of EASA AD 2007-0095R1, which is superseded, and
requires implementation of the new and more restrictive maintenance
instructions and/or airworthiness limitations as specified in Airbus
A300-600 ALS Part 5.
The unsafe condition is the potential of ignition sources inside
fuel tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors caused by
latent failures, alterations, repairs, or maintenance actions, could
result in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane. You
may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2015-
8427.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM or on the determination of
the cost to the public.
Explanation of Changes Made in This AD
We have corrected certain paragraph references in paragraph (g) and
Note 1 to paragraph (g) of this AD.
We have revised certain document citations in paragraph (h) of this
AD. This change is necessary to meet the Office of the Federal
Register's requirements for documents that are incorporated by
reference in this AD.
We have also determined that the compliance time for revising the
ALS to incorporate certain CDCCLs specified in paragraph (i) of this AD
should be within 12 months after June 27, 2007 (the effective date of
AD 2007-10-10, Amendment 39-15051 (72 FR 28827, May 23, 2007) (``AD
2007-10-10'')). The compliance time stated in the proposed AD was
``Within 12 months after the effective date of this AD.'' We have
revised paragraph (i) of this AD accordingly. The proposed AD clearly
indicated that we intended to restate the requirements of that
paragraph from the previous AD, with no changes.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and
the public interest require adopting this AD with the changes described
previously, except for minor editorial changes. We have determined that
these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for correcting the unsafe condition; and
Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Airbus has issued A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section Part
5--Fuel Airworthiness Limitations, Revision 00, dated May 27, 2014. The
airworthiness limitations introduce mandatory instructions and more
restrictive maintenance requirements. This service information is
reasonably available because the interested parties have access to it
through their normal course of business or by the means identified in
the ADDRESSES section.
Costs of Compliance
We estimate that this AD affects 122 airplanes of U.S. registry.
The actions required by AD 2007-10-10 R1, and retained in this AD
take about 2 work-hours per product, at an average labor rate of $85
per work-hour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the
actions that were required by AD 2007-10-10 R1 is $170 per product.
[[Page 27307]]
We also estimate that it takes about 1 work-hour per product to
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate
is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost $0 per product. Based on
these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on U.S. operators to be
$10,370, or $85 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.
