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) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and (3) 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. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. The Amendment Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows: PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES 1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows: ■ Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. § 39.13 [Amended] 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by: a. Removing Airworthiness Directive 2020–19–11, Amendment 39–21254 (85 FR 59404, September 22, 2020); and ■ b.

Model A119 and AW119 MKII helicopters, certificated in any category, with 90-degree tail rotor gearbox (TGB) part number (P/N) 109–0440–06–101 or 109–0440–06–105, and with TGB shaft P/N 109–0443–03–107 having a serial number (S/N) listed in Table 1 of Leonardo Helicopters Alert Service Bulletin No. 119–090, Revision A, dated September 14, 2020 (ASB 119–090), installed. Note 1 to paragraph (c): A TGB shaft is also referred to as a mast gear assembly. (d) Subject Joint Aircraft Service Component (JASC) Code: 6510, Tail Rotor Drive Shaft. (e) Unsafe Condition This AD was prompted by two occurrences of corrosion on the internal surface of the TGB shaft. The FAA is issuing this AD to detect corrosion of the TGB shaft. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in failure of the tail rotor, possibly resulting in reduced control of the helicopter. (f) Compliance Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done. (g) Required Actions (1) Within 25 hours time-in-service (TIS) or 3 months, whichever occurs first after the effective date of this AD, and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 6 months, borescope inspect the entire internal surface of the TGB shaft for corrosion. Refer to Detail A of Figure 1 of ASB 119–090, for a depiction of the entry point for the borescope. If there is corrosion, before further flight, remove the TGB from service. (2) As of the effective date of this AD, do not install on any helicopter any TGB P/N 109–0440–06–101 or 109–0440–06–105 that has TGB shaft P/N 109–0443–03–107 having an S/N listed in Table 1 of ASB 119–090, unless the actions required by paragraph (g)(1) of this AD have been accomplished.

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this action: (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); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

History

    FAA Order JO 7400.11E, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, 
effective September 15, 2020, listed Class A, B, C, D and E airspace 
areas; air traffic service routes; and reporting points. Due to the 
length of these descriptions, the FAA requested approval from the 
Office of the Federal Register to incorporate the material by reference 
in the Federal Aviation Regulations 14 CFR 71.1, effective September 
15, 2020, through September 15, 2021. During the incorporation by 
reference period, the FAA processed all proposed changes of the 
airspace listings in FAA Order JO 7400.11E in full text as proposed 
rule documents in the Federal Register. Likewise, all amendments of 
these listings were published in full text as final rules in the 
Federal Register. This rule reflects the periodic integration of these 
final rule amendments into a revised edition of FAA Order JO 7400.11F, 
Airspace Designations and Reporting Points. The Director of the Federal 
Register has approved the incorporation by reference of the Order in 14 
CFR 71.1, as of September 15, 2021, through September 15, 2022. This 
rule also explains the procedures the FAA will use to amend the 
airspace designations incorporated by reference in part 71 14 CFR 71.5, 
71.15, 71.31, 71.33, 71.41, 71.51, 71.61, 71.71, and 71.901 are also 
updated to reflect the incorporation by reference of FAA Order JO

routes, and reporting points.

The Rule

    This action amends 14 CFR part 71 to reflect the approval by the 
Director of the Federal Register of the incorporation by reference of 
the Order, effective September 15, 2021, through September 15, 2022. 
During the incorporation by reference period, the FAA will continue to 
process all proposed changes of the airspace listings in FAA Order JO 
7400.11F in full text as proposed rule documents in the Federal 
Register. Likewise, all amendments of these listings will be published 
in full text as final rules in the Federal Register. The FAA will 
periodically integrate all final rule amendments into a revised edition 
of the Order, and submit the revised edition to the Director of the 
Federal Register for approval for incorporation by reference in 14 CFR 
71.1.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, 
is published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this action: (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); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a 
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. This 
action neither places any new restrictions or requirements on the 
public, nor changes the dimensions or operation requirements of the 
airspace listings incorporated by reference in part 71.
