ACTION: Final rule; request for
comments.
AGENCY:
The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
Bombardier, Inc., Model BD–700–1A10
and BD–700–1A11 airplanes. This AD
was prompted by reports that main
landing gear (MLG) trailing arm
assemblies were found with
compromised paint finish and corrosion
on the axle bore inner diameters due to
improper removal of contaminants
during manufacturing. This AD requires
a one-time inspection to determine if an
affected MLG trailing arm assembly is
installed, repetitive detailed inspections
of the inner diameter of the affected
MLG trailing arm assembly axle bore for
surface finish discrepancies, corrective
actions if necessary, and eventual
replacement of primer and paint and
application of corrosion preventive
compound on the inner diameter of all
affected MLG trailing arm assembly axle
bores, which terminates the repetitive
inspections. The FAA is issuing this AD
to address the unsafe condition on these
products.
DATES: This AD becomes effective
March 12, 2020.
The Director of the Federal Register
approved the incorporation by reference
of certain publications listed in this AD
as of March 12, 2020.
The FAA must receive comments on
this AD by April 13, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
Transport Canada Civil Aviation
(TCCA), which is the aviation authority
for Canada, has issued Canadian AD
CF–2019–33R1, dated January 23, 2020
(referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information,
or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe
condition for certain Bombardier, Inc.,
Model BD–700–1A10 and BD–700–
1A11 airplanes. You may examine the
MCAI on the internet at https://
www.regulations.gov by searching for
and locating Docket No. FAA–2020–
0100.
This AD was prompted by reports that
MLG trailing arm assemblies were found
with compromised paint finish and
corrosion on the axle bore inner
diameters due to improper removal of
contaminants during manufacturing.

The FAA is issuing this AD to address
possible corrosion on the inner diameter
of the MLG trailing arm assembly bore,
which, if not detected and corrected,
could lead to MLG collapse. See the
MCAI for additional background
information.
Related Service Information Under 1
CFR Part 51
Bombardier has issued the following
service information.
• Bombardier Service Bulletin 700–
1A11–32–026, Revision 01, dated
November 27, 2019.
• Bombardier Service Bulletin 700–
32–039, Revision 01, dated November

• Bombardier Service Bulletin 700–
32–6016, Revision 01, dated November
27, 2019.
This service information describes
procedures for a one-time inspection to
determine if an affected MLG trailing
arm assembly is installed, repetitive
detailed inspections of the inner
diameter of the affected MLG trailing
arm assembly axle bore for surface
finish discrepancies, corrective actions
if necessary, and eventual replacement
of primer and paint and application of
corrosion preventive compound on the
inner diameter of all affected MLG
trailing arm assembly axle bores, which
terminates the repetitive inspections.
Surface finish discrepancies include
corrosion, paint that is bubbling, loose,
flaking, cracked, damaged or missing, or
primer or metallic-ceramic coating that
is visible. Corrective actions include
repair or replacement of the MLG
trailing arm assembly. These documents
are distinct since they apply to different
airplane models and configurations.
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.
FAA’s Determination
This product has been approved by
the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation
in the United States. Pursuant to a
bilateral agreement with the State of
Design Authority, the FAA has been
notified of the unsafe condition
described in the MCAI and service
information referenced above. The FAA
is issuing this AD because the agency
evaluated all pertinent information and
determined the unsafe condition exists
and is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.
E:\FR\FM\26FER1.SGM
26FER1
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 38 / Wednesday, February 26, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
the unsafe condition and is based on
risk analysis requirements, including
reports of compromised paint finish and
corrosion on the axle bore inner
diameters. To support this risk analysis
and to provide for coordinated
implementation of TCCA’s regulations
in paragraph (i) of this AD, the FAA is
using the same compliance dates in this
AD.
Requirements of This AD
This AD requires accomplishing the
actions specified in the service
information described previously,
except as discussed under ‘‘Differences
Between this AD and the MCAI or
Service Information.’’ This AD also
requires sending the inspection results
to Bombardier.
Differences Between This AD and the
MCAI or Service Information
The MCAI specifies to accomplish the
one-time inspection to determine if an
affected MLG trailing arm assembly is
installed within 3 months from
November 27, 2019 (the release date of
Revision 01 of the applicable service
information specified in the Related
Service Information under 1 CFR part 51
paragraph of this AD). The FAA has
determined that a compliance time of
within 30 days after the effective date of
this AD is acceptable to address the
unsafe condition.
Explanation of Compliance Time
Most ADs adopt a compliance time
relative to the AD’s effective date. In
this case, however, the FAA is using a
fixed compliance date in this AD. The
MCAI requires operators to accomplish
a detailed inspection of the surface
finish of affected MLG trailing arm
assemblies at a specified time (which
varies according to serial number, with
the earliest date being 5/12/2020). That
compliance time is necessary to address
FAA’s Justification and Determination
of the Effective Date
An unsafe condition exists that
requires the immediate adoption of this
AD without providing an opportunity
for public comments prior to adoption.
The FAA has found that the risk to the
flying public justifies waiving notice
and comment prior to adoption of this
rule because the affected trailing arm
assemblies have the potential for
improper adhesion between the anticorrosion layers, which could lead to
corrosion on the inner diameter of the
MLG trailing arm assembly axle bore
and possibly lead to MLG collapse.
Therefore, the FAA finds good cause
that notice and opportunity for prior
public comment are impracticable. In
addition, for the reasons stated above,
the FAA finds that good cause exists for
making this amendment effective in less
than 30 days.
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
The requirements of the RFA do not
apply when an agency finds good cause
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt a rule
10975
without prior notice and comment.
Because the FAA has determined that it
has good cause to adopt this rule
without notice and comment, RFA
analysis is not required.
Comments Invited
This AD is a final rule that involves
requirements affecting flight safety, and
the FAA did not precede it by notice
and opportunity for public comment.
The FAA invites you to send any
written relevant data, views, or
arguments about this AD. Send your
comments to an address listed under the
ADDRESSES section. Include ‘‘Docket No.
FAA–2020–0100; Product Identifier
2020–NM–016–AD’’ at the beginning of
your comments. The FAA specifically
invites comments on the overall
regulatory, economic, environmental,
and energy aspects of this AD. The FAA
will consider all comments received by
the closing date and may amend this AD
based on those comments.
The FAA will post all comments
received, without change, to https://
www.regulations.gov, including any
personal information you provide. The
FAA will also post a report
summarizing each substantive verbal
contact received about this AD.
Costs of Compliance

affects 49 airplanes of U.S. registry. The
FAA estimates the following costs to
comply with this AD:

reducing the cost impact on affected
individuals. The FAA does not control
warranty coverage for affected
individuals. As a result, the FAA has
included all known costs in the cost
estimate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian AD CF-2019-33R1, dated
January 23, 2020 (referred to after this as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-
1A11 airplanes. You may examine the MCAI on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and locating Docket No. FAA-2020-
0100.
This AD was prompted by reports that MLG trailing arm assemblies
were found with compromised paint finish and corrosion on the axle bore
inner diameters due to improper removal of contaminants during
manufacturing. The FAA is issuing this AD to address possible corrosion
on the inner diameter of the MLG trailing arm assembly bore, which, if
not detected and corrected, could lead to MLG collapse. See the MCAI
for additional background information.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Bombardier has issued the following service information.
Bombardier Service Bulletin 700-1A11-32-026, Revision 01,
dated November 27, 2019.
Bombardier Service Bulletin 700-32-039, Revision 01, dated
November 27, 2019.
Bombardier Service Bulletin 700-32-5016, Revision 01,
dated November 27, 2019.
Bombardier Service Bulletin 700-32-6016, Revision 01,
dated November 27, 2019.
This service information describes procedures for a one-time
inspection to determine if an affected MLG trailing arm assembly is
installed, repetitive detailed inspections of the inner diameter of the
affected MLG trailing arm assembly axle bore for surface finish
discrepancies, corrective actions if necessary, and eventual
replacement of primer and paint and application of corrosion preventive
compound on the inner diameter of all affected MLG trailing arm
assembly axle bores, which terminates the repetitive inspections.
Surface finish discrepancies include corrosion, paint that is bubbling,
loose, flaking, cracked, damaged or missing, or primer or metallic-
ceramic coating that is visible. Corrective actions include repair or
replacement of the MLG trailing arm assembly. These documents are
distinct since they apply to different airplane models and
configurations. 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.
FAA's Determination
This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country, and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant
to a bilateral agreement with the State of Design Authority, the FAA
has been notified of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI and
service information referenced above. The FAA is issuing this AD
because the agency evaluated all pertinent information and determined
the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.
[[Page 10975]]
Requirements of This AD
This AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in the service
information described previously, except as discussed under
``Differences Between this AD and the MCAI or Service Information.''
This AD also requires sending the inspection results to Bombardier.
Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information
The MCAI specifies to accomplish the one-time inspection to
determine if an affected MLG trailing arm assembly is installed within
3 months from November 27, 2019 (the release date of Revision 01 of the
applicable service information specified in the Related Service
Information under 1 CFR part 51 paragraph of this AD). The FAA has
determined that a compliance time of within 30 days after the effective
date of this AD is acceptable to address the unsafe condition.
Explanation of Compliance Time
Most ADs adopt a compliance time relative to the AD's effective
date. In this case, however, the FAA is using a fixed compliance date
in this AD. The MCAI requires operators to accomplish a detailed
inspection of the surface finish of affected MLG trailing arm
assemblies at a specified time (which varies according to serial
number, with the earliest date being 5/12/2020). That compliance time
is necessary to address the unsafe condition and is based on risk
analysis requirements, including reports of compromised paint finish
and corrosion on the axle bore inner diameters. To support this risk
analysis and to provide for coordinated implementation of TCCA's
regulations in paragraph (i) of this AD, the FAA is using the same
compliance dates in this AD.
FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date
An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD without providing an opportunity for public comments prior to
adoption. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public
justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule
because the affected trailing arm assemblies have the potential for
improper adhesion between the anti-corrosion layers, which could lead
to corrosion on the inner diameter of the MLG trailing arm assembly
axle bore and possibly lead to MLG collapse. Therefore, the FAA finds
good cause that notice and opportunity for prior public comment are
impracticable. In addition, for the reasons stated above, the FAA finds
that good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less than
30 days.
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
The requirements of the RFA do not apply when an agency finds good
cause pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 to adopt a rule without prior notice and
comment. Because the FAA has determined that it has good cause to adopt
this rule without notice and comment, RFA analysis is not required.
Comments Invited
This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and the FAA did not precede it by notice and opportunity for
public comment. The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data,
views, or arguments about this AD. Send your comments to an address
listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2020-0100;
Product Identifier 2020-NM-016-AD'' at the beginning of your comments.
The FAA specifically invites comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. The FAA will
consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this
AD based on those comments.
The FAA will post all comments received, without change, to https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide.
The FAA will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal
contact received about this AD.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD affects 49 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:
Estimated Costs for Required Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 33 work-hours x $85 per hour = Up to $200,000......... Up to $202,805......... Up to $9,937,445.
Up to $2,805.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of any
required actions. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these on-condition actions:
Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions *
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 20 work-hours x $85 per Up to $200,000.... Up to $201,700.
hour = Up to $1,700.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Table does not include estimated costs for reporting.
We estimate that it takes about 1 work-hour per product to comply
with the on-condition reporting requirement in this AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the
cost of reporting the inspection results on U.S. operators to be $85
per product.
According to the manufacturer, some or all of the costs of this AD
may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on
affected individuals. The FAA does not control warranty coverage for
affected individuals. As a result, the FAA has included all known costs
in the cost estimate.
Paperwork Reduction Act
A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid
[[Page 10976]]
OMB control number. The control number for the collection of
information required by this AD is 2120-0056. The paperwork cost
associated with this AD has been detailed in the Costs of Compliance
section of this document and includes time for reviewing instructions,
as well as completing and reviewing the collection of information.
Therefore, all reporting associated with this AD is mandatory. Comments
concerning the accuracy of this burden and suggestions for reducing the
burden should be directed to Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Federal Aviation Administration, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX
76177-1524.
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.
The FAA is 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
The FAA has 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, and
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska.
