SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would
apply to certain Empresa Brasileira de
Aeronautica S.A. (Embraer) Model
EMB–135BJ, –135ER, –135KE, –135KL,
and –135LR airplanes; and Model EMB–
145, –145ER, –145MR, –145LR, –145XR,
–145MP, and –145EP airplanes. The
NPRM published in the Federal
Register on August 30, 2016 (81 FR
59528) (‘‘the NPRM’’). The NPRM was
prompted by reports of main airspeed
indication discrepancies during flight;
these discrepancies resulted from ice
blockages in certain pitot total pressure
lines. The NPRM proposed to require an
inspection for tube misalignment of the
pitot number 1 and pitot number 2 tube
assembly lines, and corrective actions if
necessary; installation or replacement
(as applicable) of a tube ribbon heater
on the pitot number 1 and pitot number
2 tube assembly lines; and revision of
the AFM to provide certain procedures
and airspeed tables for the flightcrew.
We are issuing this AD to detect and
correct water accumulating and freezing
in the pitot number 1 and pitot number
2 total pressure lines, which could
result in erroneous main airspeed
indications and consequent reduced
ability of the flightcrew to maintain safe
flight and landing of the airplane.
ˆ
Agencia Nacional de Aviacao Civil
¸˜
(ANAC), which is the aviation authority
for Brazil, has issued Brazilian
Airworthiness Directive 2016–03–01,
effective March 11, 2016 (referred to
after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the
MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition
for certain Empresa Brasileira de
Aeronautica S.A. (Embraer) Model
EMB–135 airplanes, and Model EMB–
145, –145ER, –145MR, –145LR, –145XR,
–145MP, and –145EP airplanes. The
MCAI states:
This [Brazilian] AD results from reports of
main airspeed indication discrepancies
during flight. The investigation has revealed
that Pitot #1 and #2 total pressure line
blockage may occur due to water
accumulation and freezing during heavy rain
conditions. We are issuing this [Brazilian]
AD to prevent water accumulation and
freezing in the Pitot #1 and Pitot #2 total
pressure lines, which could result in
erroneous main airspeed indications and
reduce the ability of the flight crew to
maintain the safe flight and landing of the
airplane.
Since this condition may occur in other
airplanes of the same type and affects flight
E:\FR\FM\22FER1.SGM
22FER1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 34 / Wednesday, February 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
safety, a corrective action is required. Thus,
sufficient reason exists to request compliance
with this [Brazilian] AD * * *.
The required actions include a general
visual inspection for tube misalignment
of pitot number 1 and pitot number 2
tube assembly lines. Corrective actions
include replacement of affected pitot
tubes with new pitot tubes. The
required actions also include
installation, or, for certain airplanes,
replacement, of a tube ribbon heater on
the pitot number 1 and pitot number 2
tube assembly lines, and revision of the
AFM to provide certain procedures and
airspeed tables for the flightcrew. 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–2016–
9049.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to
participate in developing this AD. We
considered the comment received. The
Air Line Pilots Association,
International supported the NPRM.
Changes Since the NPRM Was Issued
We have revised this AD to refer to
Embraer Service Bulletin 145–30–0056,
Revision 03, dated February 6, 2015.
The service information specifies that
no additional work is needed if the
actions in Embraer Service Bulletin
145–30–0056, Revision 01, dated March
31, 2014; or Revision 02, dated
December 10, 2014; have been
accomplished. We have revised
paragraph (k) of this AD to provide
credit for actions done prior to the
effective date of this AD using Embraer
Service Bulletin 145–30–0056, Revision
01, dated March 31, 2014; or Revision
02, dated December 10, 2014.
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data,
considered the comment received, and
determined that air safety and the
public interest require adopting this AD
with the changes described previously
and 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.
We also determined that these
changes will not increase the economic
burden on any operator or increase the
scope of this AD.

Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
Embraer has issued the following
service information.
• Embraer Service Bulletin 145–30–
0056, Revision 03, dated February 6,
2015; and Embraer Service Bulletin
145LEG–30–0021, dated March 31,
2014. This service information describes
procedures to inspect the pitot pressure
tubes for misalignment, install new
heaters, and perform repairs. These
documents are distinct since they apply
to different airplane models.
• Embraer Temporary Revision (TR)
19.1, dated April 22, 2014, to Volume 1
of the Embraer Legacy Aircraft
Operations Manual (AOM) AOM–135/
1542–01. This service information
contains, among other things, the
‘‘Unreliable Airspeed Procedure’’ in the
Emergency/Abnormal Procedures
section and the ‘‘Unreliable Airspeed
Tables’’ (corresponding to the airplane
configuration) in the Performance
section.
• Embraer TR 40.2, dated April 4,
2014, to Volume 1, of the Embraer
EMB–145 AOM AOM–145/1114–01.
This service information contains,
among other things, the ‘‘Unreliable
Airspeed Procedure’’ in the Emergency/
Abnormal Procedures section and the
‘‘Unreliable Airspeed Tables’’
(corresponding to the airplane
configuration) in the Performance
section.
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 668
airplanes of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take up
to 5 work-hours per product to comply
with the basic requirements of this AD.
The average labor rate is $85 per workhour. Required parts will cost about
$3,254 per product. Based on these
figures, we estimate the cost of this AD
on U.S. operators to be up to $2,457,572,
or up to $3,679 per product.
We have received no definitive data
that will enable us to provide cost
estimates for the on-condition actions
specified in 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 available 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
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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
The Danny Keysar Child Product
Safety Notification Act. Section
104(b)(1)(B) of the CPSIA, also known as
the Danny Keysar Child Product Safety
Notification Act, requires the
Commission to promulgate consumer
product safety standards for durable
infant or toddler products. The law
requires that these standards are to be
‘‘substantially the same as’’ applicable
voluntary standards or more stringent
than the voluntary standards if the
Commission concludes that more
stringent requirements would further
reduce the risk of injury associated with
the product.
Section 104(b)(4)(B) of the CPSIA also
sets forth a process for updating CPSC’s
durable infant or toddler standards
when the voluntary standard upon
which the CPSC standard was based is
changed. Under that process, when an
organization revises the voluntary
standard, it must notify the
Commission. Unless the Commission
determines within 90 days of receiving
the notice that the revision does not
improve the safety of the product, the
revised standard is considered to be the
new CPSC standard effective 180 days
from the date the Commission received
notice of the revision (or a later date
specified by the Commission).
The CPSC’s Toddler Bed Standard. In
accordance with section 104(b)(1) of the
CPSIA, on April 20, 2011, the
Commission published a safety standard
that incorporated by reference ASTM
F1821–09, Standard Consumer Safety
Specification for Toddler Beds, along
with several modifications, as a
mandatory consumer product safety
standard. (76 FR 22019 (April 20,
2011)); correction notice 1 (76 FR 27882
(May 13, 2011)). ASTM officially
notified the CPSC on September 25,
2013 that ASTM had published a
revised 2013 version of ASTM F1821.
The Commission voted unanimously to
publish a Federal Register notice
revising the Commission’s toddler bed
standard to reference ASTM F1821–13,
effective March 24, 2014 (78 FR 73692
(December 9, 2013); codified at 16 CFR
1 The Office of the Federal Register inadvertently
omitted the last two sections and figures from the
April 20, 2011 Federal Register notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Empresa Brasileira
de Aeronautica S.A. (Embraer) Model EMB-135BJ, -135ER, -135KE, -135KL,
and -135LR airplanes; and Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, -145LR, -
145XR, -145MP, and -145EP airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal
Register on August 30, 2016 (81 FR 59528) (``the NPRM''). The NPRM was
prompted by reports of main airspeed indication discrepancies during
flight; these discrepancies resulted from ice blockages in certain
pitot total pressure lines. The NPRM proposed to require an inspection
for tube misalignment of the pitot number 1 and pitot number 2 tube
assembly lines, and corrective actions if necessary; installation or
replacement (as applicable) of a tube ribbon heater on the pitot number
1 and pitot number 2 tube assembly lines; and revision of the AFM to
provide certain procedures and airspeed tables for the flightcrew. We
are issuing this AD to detect and correct water accumulating and
freezing in the pitot number 1 and pitot number 2 total pressure lines,
which could result in erroneous main airspeed indications and
consequent reduced ability of the flightcrew to maintain safe flight
and landing of the airplane.
Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil (ANAC), which
is the aviation authority for Brazil, has issued Brazilian
Airworthiness Directive 2016-03-01, effective March 11, 2016 (referred
to after this as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for certain Empresa
Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (Embraer) Model EMB-135 airplanes, and
Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, -145LR, -145XR, -145MP, and -145EP
airplanes. The MCAI states:
This [Brazilian] AD results from reports of main airspeed
indication discrepancies during flight. The investigation has
revealed that Pitot #1 and #2 total pressure line blockage may occur
due to water accumulation and freezing during heavy rain conditions.
We are issuing this [Brazilian] AD to prevent water accumulation and
freezing in the Pitot #1 and Pitot #2 total pressure lines, which
could result in erroneous main airspeed indications and reduce the
ability of the flight crew to maintain the safe flight and landing
of the airplane.
Since this condition may occur in other airplanes of the same
type and affects flight
[[Page 11315]]
safety, a corrective action is required. Thus, sufficient reason
exists to request compliance with this [Brazilian] AD * * *.
The required actions include a general visual inspection for tube
misalignment of pitot number 1 and pitot number 2 tube assembly lines.
Corrective actions include replacement of affected pitot tubes with new
pitot tubes. The required actions also include installation, or, for
certain airplanes, replacement, of a tube ribbon heater on the pitot
number 1 and pitot number 2 tube assembly lines, and revision of the
AFM to provide certain procedures and airspeed tables for the
flightcrew. 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-2016-9049.
Comments
We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. We considered the comment received. The Air Line Pilots
Association, International supported the NPRM.
Changes Since the NPRM Was Issued
We have revised this AD to refer to Embraer Service Bulletin 145-
30-0056, Revision 03, dated February 6, 2015. The service information
specifies that no additional work is needed if the actions in Embraer
Service Bulletin 145-30-0056, Revision 01, dated March 31, 2014; or
Revision 02, dated December 10, 2014; have been accomplished. We have
revised paragraph (k) of this AD to provide credit for actions done
prior to the effective date of this AD using Embraer Service Bulletin
145-30-0056, Revision 01, dated March 31, 2014; or Revision 02, dated
December 10, 2014.
Conclusion
We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and
determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
this AD with the changes described previously and 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.
We also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this AD.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Embraer has issued the following service information.
Embraer Service Bulletin 145-30-0056, Revision 03, dated
February 6, 2015; and Embraer Service Bulletin 145LEG-30-0021, dated
March 31, 2014. This service information describes procedures to
inspect the pitot pressure tubes for misalignment, install new heaters,
and perform repairs. These documents are distinct since they apply to
different airplane models.
Embraer Temporary Revision (TR) 19.1, dated April 22,
2014, to Volume 1 of the Embraer Legacy Aircraft Operations Manual
(AOM) AOM-135/1542-01. This service information contains, among other
things, the ``Unreliable Airspeed Procedure'' in the Emergency/Abnormal
Procedures section and the ``Unreliable Airspeed Tables''
(corresponding to the airplane configuration) in the Performance
section.
Embraer TR 40.2, dated April 4, 2014, to Volume 1, of the
Embraer EMB-145 AOM AOM-145/1114-01. This service information contains,
among other things, the ``Unreliable Airspeed Procedure'' in the
Emergency/Abnormal Procedures section and the ``Unreliable Airspeed
Tables'' (corresponding to the airplane configuration) in the
Performance section.
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 668 airplanes of U.S. registry.
We also estimate that it will take up to 5 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 $3,254 per
product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this AD on
U.S. operators to be up to $2,457,572, or up to $3,679 per product.
We have received no definitive data that will enable us to provide
cost estimates for the on-condition actions specified in 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 available 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
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.
