The purpose of these notices is to give interested persons an opportunity to participate in the rule making prior to the adoption of the final rules. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA–2022–1405; Project Identifier AD–2022–01070–E] RIN 2120–AA64 Airworthiness Directives; CFM International, S.A. Turbofan Engines Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). AGENCY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2021–10–09, which applies to all CFM International, S.A. (CFM) CFM56–5B and CFM56–7B model turbofan engines with a certain high-pressure turbine (HPT) inner stationary seal installed. AD 2021–10–09 requires removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. Since the FAA issued AD 2021–10–09, the manufacturer notified the FAA that the service information incorrectly lists the year of certain honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the manufacturer notified the FAA that affected HPT inner stationary seals could potentially be installed on CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan engines. This proposed AD would require removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. This proposed AD would also revise the applicability to add CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan engines. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 17, 2023. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:14 Nov 30, 2022 Jkt 259001 You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR 11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to regulations.gov.

Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking. Background The FAA issued AD 2021–10–09, Amendment 39–21542 (86 FR 27264, May 20, 2021) (AD 2021–10–09), for all CFM CFM56–5B and CFM56–7B model turbofan engines with an HPT inner stationary seal, part number (P/N) 1808M56G01, installed. AD 2021–10–09 was prompted by cracks found in the rotating air HPT front seal. After investigation, CFM determined that the HPT inner stationary seal, P/N 1808M56G01, may not have received the correct braze heat treat cycle at the time of the honeycomb replacement. As a result, the affected HPT inner stationary seal may have a condition that could lead to a localized separation E:\FR\FM\01DEP1.SGM 01DEP1 73684 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 230 / Thursday, December 1, 2022 / Proposed Rules of the replaced honeycomb, which may reduce the life of the rotating air HPT front seal. AD 2021–10–09 requires removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. The agency issued AD 2021–10–09 to prevent failure of the HPT inner stationary seal and the rotating air HPT front seal, which could result in uncontained release of the rotating air HPT front seal, damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane. model turbofan engines. The FAA, therefore, determined that the unsafe condition is likely to exist or develop on CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan engines with an affected HPT inner stationary seal installed. Actions Since AD 2021–10–09 Was Issued The FAA reviewed the following service information: • CFM Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56– 5C S/B 72–0796, Revision 02, dated August 10, 2022. • CFM SB CFM56–5B S/B 72–0952, Revision 02, dated August 10, 2022. • CFM SB CFM56–7B S/B 72–1054, Revision 02, dated August 10, 2022. This service information, differentiated by engine model, specifies procedures for inspecting the HPT inner stationary seal honeycomb. This service information is reasonably available Since the FAA issued AD 2021–10– 09, the manufacturer notified the FAA that the service information, which is incorporated by reference, incorrectly lists the year of certain honeycomb repairs. The manufacturer subsequently published revised service information that establishes a single date for the honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the manufacturer notified the FAA that affected HPT inner stationary seals could be installed on CFM CFM56–5C FAA’s Determination The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 because the interested parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES. Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM This proposed AD would retain none of the requirements of AD 2021–10–09. This proposed AD would require removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. This proposed AD would also revise the applicability to add CFM CFM56–5C model turbofan engines. Costs of Compliance The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would affect 210 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators have the option to replace or repair the affected HPT inner stationary seal. The parts cost includes the estimated costs for replacement with a repaired HPT inner stationary seal. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed AD: ESTIMATED COSTS Action Labor cost Replace HPT inner stationary seal ................. Inspect HPT inner stationary seal .................. 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ................. 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ................. The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary replacements that would be required based on the Parts cost results of the proposed inspection. The agency has no way of determining the $7,910 0 Cost per product $7,995 85 Cost on U.S. operators $1,678,950 17,850 number of engines that might need these replacements: ON-CONDITION COSTS Action Labor cost Replace rotating air HPT front seal .............................. Replace HPT rotor blades (pair) .................................. Replace No. 3 ball bearing ........................................... 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ............................... 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ............................... 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ............................... khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD 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. 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:14 Nov 30, 2022 Jkt 259001 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 determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.

Turbofan Engines Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). AGENCY: The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain CFM International, S.A. (CFM) LEAP–1B turbofan engines. This proposed AD was prompted by a report of multiple aborted takeoffs and air turn-backs (ATBs) caused by highpressure compressor (HPC) stall, which was induced by high levels of nonsynchronous vibration (NSV). A subsequent investigation by the manufacturer revealed that wear on the No. 3 bearing spring finger housing can lead to high levels of NSV. This proposed AD would require repetitive calculations of the oil filter delta pressure (OFDP) data and, depending on the results of the calculation, replacement of the No. 3 bearing spring finger housing. This proposed AD would also prohibit installation of an engine with an affected No. 3 bearing spring finger housing onto an airplane that already has one engine with an affected No. 3 bearing spring finger housing installed. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 17, 2023.

Airworthiness Directives; CFM International, S.A. Turbofan 
Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 
2021-10-09, which applies to all CFM International, S.A. (CFM) CFM56-5B 
and CFM56-7B model turbofan engines with a certain high-pressure 
turbine (HPT) inner stationary seal installed. AD 2021-10-09 requires 
removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner 
stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the 
rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. 
Since the FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, the manufacturer notified the FAA 
that the service information incorrectly lists the year of certain 
honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the manufacturer notified the FAA that 
affected HPT inner stationary seals could potentially be installed on 
CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines. This proposed AD would require 
removal, inspection, and replacement of the affected HPT inner 
stationary seal and, depending on the findings, replacement of the 
rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. 
This proposed AD would also revise the applicability to add CFM CFM56-
5C model turbofan engines. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the 
unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: The FAA must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 17, 
2023.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR 
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    The FAA invites you to send any written relevant data, views, or 
arguments about this proposal. Send your comments to an address listed 
under ADDRESSES. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2022-1405; Project Identifier 
AD-2022-01070-E'' at the beginning of your comments. The most helpful 
comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain the 
reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. The FAA 
will consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend 
the proposal because of those comments.
    Except for Confidential Business Information (CBI) as described in 
the following paragraph, and other information as described in 14 CFR 
11.35, the FAA will post all comments received, without change, to 
regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. The 
agency will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal 
contact received about this NPRM.

Confidential Business Information

    CBI is commercial or financial information that is both customarily 
and actually treated as private by its owner. Under the Freedom of 
Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552), CBI is exempt from public 
disclosure. If your comments responsive to this NPRM contain commercial 
or financial information that is customarily treated as private, that 
you actually treat as private, and that is relevant or responsive to 
this NPRM, it is important that you clearly designate the submitted 
comments as CBI. Please mark each page of your submission containing 
CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat such marked submissions as 
confidential under the FOIA, and they will not be placed in the public 
docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing CBI should be sent to Kevin 
Clark, Aviation Safety Engineer, ECO Branch, FAA, 1200 District Avenue, 
Burlington, MA 01803. Any commentary that the FAA receives which is not 
specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for 
this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, Amendment 39-21542 (86 FR 27264, May 
20, 2021) (AD 2021-10-09), for all CFM CFM56-5B and CFM56-7B model 
turbofan engines with an HPT inner stationary seal, part number (P/N) 
1808M56G01, installed. AD 2021-10-09 was prompted by cracks found in 
the rotating air HPT front seal. After investigation, CFM determined 
that the HPT inner stationary seal, P/N 1808M56G01, may not have 
received the correct braze heat treat cycle at the time of the 
honeycomb replacement. As a result, the affected HPT inner stationary 
seal may have a condition that could lead to a localized separation

[[Page 73684]]

of the replaced honeycomb, which may reduce the life of the rotating 
air HPT front seal. AD 2021-10-09 requires removal, inspection, and 
replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on 
the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor 
blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. The agency issued AD 2021-10-09 to 
prevent failure of the HPT inner stationary seal and the rotating air 
HPT front seal, which could result in uncontained release of the 
rotating air HPT front seal, damage to the engine, and damage to the 
airplane.

Actions Since AD 2021-10-09 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2021-10-09, the manufacturer notified the 
FAA that the service information, which is incorporated by reference, 
incorrectly lists the year of certain honeycomb repairs. The 
manufacturer subsequently published revised service information that 
establishes a single date for the honeycomb repairs. Additionally, the 
manufacturer notified the FAA that affected HPT inner stationary seals 
could be installed on CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines. The FAA, 
therefore, determined that the unsafe condition is likely to exist or 
develop on CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines with an affected HPT 
inner stationary seal installed.

FAA's Determination

    The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe 
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other 
products of the same type design.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    The FAA reviewed the following service information:
     CFM Service Bulletin (SB) CFM56-5C S/B 72-0796, Revision 
02, dated August 10, 2022.
     CFM SB CFM56-5B S/B 72-0952, Revision 02, dated August 10, 
2022.
     CFM SB CFM56-7B S/B 72-1054, Revision 02, dated August 10, 
2022.
    This service information, differentiated by engine model, specifies 
procedures for inspecting the HPT inner stationary seal honeycomb. 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 ADDRESSES.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would retain none of the requirements of AD 2021-
10-09. This proposed AD would require removal, inspection, and 
replacement of the affected HPT inner stationary seal and, depending on 
the findings, replacement of the rotating air HPT front seal, HPT rotor 
blades, and No. 3 ball bearing. This proposed AD would also revise the 
applicability to add CFM CFM56-5C model turbofan engines.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would 
affect 210 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators 
have the option to replace or repair the affected HPT inner stationary 
seal. The parts cost includes the estimated costs for replacement with 
a repaired HPT inner stationary seal.
    The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed 
AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                     Cost per      Cost on U.S.
                Action                         Labor cost           Parts cost        product        operators

                                         hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary 
replacements that would be required based on the results of the 
proposed inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of 
engines that might need these replacements:

                                               On-Condition Costs

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 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 that the proposed 
regulation:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive 
Order 12866,
    (2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or 
negative, on a substantial number of small entities

[[Page 73685]]

under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
