(formerly Scott Aviation) Oxygen Cylinder and Valve Assemblies; and Oxygen Valve Assemblies Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). AGENCY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022–04–09, which applies to certain AVOX System Inc. (formerly Scott Aviation) oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies; and oxygen valve assemblies; installed on but not limited to various transport airplanes. AD 2022– 04–09 requires an inspection of the oxygen valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, to determine the serial number; for certain assemblies and parts, a detailed inspection of the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve body on the assemblies; and replacement of assemblies having unacceptable gaps. Since the FAA issued AD 2022–04–09, the agency determined additional assemblies and parts are affected by the unsafe condition. This proposed AD would require an inspection of the oxygen valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, to determine the serial number of the valve, cylinder, and entire assembly. For assemblies and parts with certain serial numbers, this proposed AD would require a detailed inspection for correct spacing of the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve body on the assemblies, and replacement of assemblies having unacceptable gaps. This proposed AD would also limit the installation of affected parts under certain conditions. 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 March 13, 2023.

Any commentary that the FAA receives that is not specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking. Background The FAA issued AD 2022–04–09, Amendment 39–21951 (87 FR 10958, February 28, 2022) (AD 2022–04–09), for certain AVOX System Inc. (formerly Scott Aviation) oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and oxygen valve assemblies, installed on but not limited to various transport airplanes. AD 2022– 04–09 was prompted by reports of cylinder and valve assemblies having oxygen leakage from the valve assembly vent hole, caused by the absence of a guide that maintains appropriate spacing between certain parts. AD 2022–04–09 requires an inspection of the oxygen valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, to determine the serial number of the valve, cylinder, and entire assembly. For assemblies and parts with certain serial numbers, AD 2022–04–09 requires a detailed inspection for correct spacing of the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve body on the assemblies, and replacement of assemblies having unacceptable gaps. The agency issued AD 2022–04–09 to address oxygen leakage from the cylinder, which could result in decreased or insufficient oxygen supply during a depressurization event; and heating or flow friction, which could cause an ignition event in the valve assembly. Actions Since AD 2022–04–09 Was Issued Since the FAA issued AD 2022–04– 09, the agency determined additional assemblies and parts are affected by the unsafe condition. New service information has been issued that expands the population of discrepant parts, providing more serial numbers for which to inspect. 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. determine the serial numbers of the oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and the oxygen valve assemblies, a detailed inspection for correct spacing of the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve body on the assemblies, parts marking, inspection report, and return of parts to the manufacturer. These documents are distinct since they apply to different assembly part numbers. • AVOX Systems Inc. Alert Service Bulletin 10015804–35–01, Revision 03, dated June 7, 2021. • AVOX Systems Inc. Alert Service Bulletin 10015804–35–02, Revision 03, dated March 11, 2022. • AVOX Systems Inc. Alert Service Bulletin 10015804–35–03, Revision 03, dated June 18, 2021. 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. Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified in the service information described previously. This proposed AD would limit the installation of affected parts under certain conditions and require returning the affected parts and sending the inspection results to the manufacturer. Costs of Compliance The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would affect 3,034 oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and oxygen valve assemblies, installed on various transport category airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed AD: Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 The FAA reviewed the following service information, which describes procedures for an inspection to ESTIMATED COSTS Action Labor cost Parts cost Serial number inspection ................................ Reporting ........................................................ 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ................. 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 ................. None .............. $0 ................... khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary follow-on actions that would be required based on the results of the inspection. The FAA Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators $85 85 $257,890 257,890 has no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these actions: ON-CONDITION COSTS Action Labor cost Detailed inspection .......................................................

According to the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of this proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected operators. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS 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 a 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 currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is 2120–0056. Public reporting for this collection of information is estimated to be approximately 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, completing and reviewing the collection of information. All responses to this collection of information are mandatory. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden 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 proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:09 Jan 26, 2023 Jkt 259001 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 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.

SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 
2022-04-09, which applies to certain AVOX System Inc. (formerly Scott 
Aviation) oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies; and oxygen valve 
assemblies; installed on but not limited to various transport 
airplanes. AD 2022-04-09 requires an inspection of the oxygen valve 
assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, to determine the 
serial number; for certain assemblies and parts, a detailed inspection 
of the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the 
valve body on the assemblies; and replacement of assemblies having 
unacceptable gaps. Since the FAA issued AD 2022-04-09, the agency 
determined additional assemblies and parts are affected by the unsafe 
condition. This proposed AD would require an inspection of the oxygen 
valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, to 
determine the serial number of the valve, cylinder, and entire 
assembly. For assemblies and parts with certain serial numbers, this 
proposed AD would require a detailed inspection for correct spacing of 
the gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve 
body on the assemblies, and replacement of assemblies having 
unacceptable gaps. This proposed AD would also limit the installation 
of affected parts under certain conditions. The FAA is proposing this 
AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

specifically designated as CBI will be placed in the public docket for 
this rulemaking.

Background

    The FAA issued AD 2022-04-09, Amendment 39-21951 (87 FR 10958, 
February 28, 2022) (AD 2022-04-09), for certain AVOX System Inc. 
(formerly Scott Aviation) oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and 
oxygen valve assemblies, installed on but not limited to various 
transport airplanes. AD 2022-04-09 was prompted by reports of cylinder 
and valve assemblies having oxygen leakage from the valve assembly vent 
hole, caused by the absence of a guide that maintains appropriate 
spacing between certain parts. AD 2022-04-09 requires an inspection of 
the oxygen valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, 
to determine the serial number of the valve, cylinder, and entire 
assembly. For assemblies and parts with certain serial numbers, AD 
2022-04-09 requires a detailed inspection for correct spacing of the 
gap between the bottom of the packing retainer and top of the valve 
body on the assemblies, and replacement of assemblies having 
unacceptable gaps. The agency issued AD 2022-04-09 to address oxygen 
leakage from the cylinder, which could result in decreased or 
insufficient oxygen supply during a depressurization event; and heating 
or flow friction, which could cause an ignition event in the valve 
assembly.

Actions Since AD 2022-04-09 Was Issued

    Since the FAA issued AD 2022-04-09, the agency determined 
additional assemblies and parts are affected by the unsafe condition. 
New service information has been issued that expands the population of 
discrepant parts, providing more serial numbers for which to inspect.

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, which describes 
procedures for an inspection to determine the serial numbers of the 
oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and the oxygen valve assemblies, 
a detailed inspection for correct spacing of the gap between the bottom 
of the packing retainer and top of the valve body on the assemblies, 
parts marking, inspection report, and return of parts to the 
manufacturer. These documents are distinct since they apply to 
different assembly part numbers.

    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.

Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM

    This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified 
in the service information described previously. This proposed AD would 
limit the installation of affected parts under certain conditions and 
require returning the affected parts and sending the inspection results 
to the manufacturer.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would 
affect 3,034 oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, and oxygen valve 
assemblies, installed on various transport category airplanes of U.S. 
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this 
proposed AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                     Cost per      Cost on U.S.

Serial number inspection.........  1 work-hour x $85     None...................             $85        $257,890
                                    per hour = $85.
Reporting........................  1 work-hour x $85     $0.....................              85         257,890
                                    per hour = $85.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary follow-on 
actions that would be required based on the results of the inspection. 
The FAA has no way of determining the number of aircraft that might 
need these actions:

                                               On-Condition Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                                     Cost per

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The FAA has received no definitive data on the parts cost for the on-condition replacements.


[[Page 5280]]

    The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate. 
According to the manufacturer, however, some or all of the costs of 
this proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the 
cost impact on affected operators.

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 a 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 currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB 
Control Number for this information collection is 2120-0056. Public 
reporting for this collection of information is estimated to be 
approximately 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing 
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and 
maintaining the data needed, completing and reviewing the collection of 
information. All responses to this collection of information are 
mandatory. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other 
aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for 
reducing this burden 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 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 under the criteria 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

System.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports of cylinder and valve assemblies 
having oxygen leakage from the valve assembly vent hole, caused by 
the absence of a guide that maintains appropriate spacing between 
certain parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to address oxygen leakage 
from cylinder and valve assemblies. The unsafe condition, if not 
addressed, could result in decreased or insufficient oxygen supply 
during a depressurization event; and heating or flow friction, which 
could cause an ignition event in the valve assembly.

unless already done.

(g) Definition of Detailed Inspection

    For the purposes of this AD, a detailed inspection is an 
intensive examination of a specific item, installation, or assembly 
to detect damage, failure, or irregularity.
    Available lighting is normally supplemented with a direct source 
of good lighting at an intensity deemed appropriate. Inspection aids 
such as mirror, magnifying lenses, etc., may be necessary. Surface 
cleaning and elaborate procedures may be required.

(h) Identification of Affected Cylinder and Valve Assemblies

    Within 60 days after the effective date of this AD, inspect the 
oxygen valve assemblies, and oxygen cylinder and valve assemblies, 
to

[[Page 5281]]

determine if the serial numbers of the valve, cylinder, and entire 
assembly, are listed in Appendix 1 or Appendix 2, ``Affected 
Shipments,'' of the applicable service information identified in 
paragraphs (h)(1) through (3) of this AD. A review of airplane 
maintenance records is acceptable in lieu of this inspection if the
