415 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). considers FICUs with assets less than 
$100 million to be small entities.40 
As discussed previously, consistent 
with the APA,41the Board has 
determined for good cause that general notice and opportunity for public comment is unnecessary, and therefore the Board is not issuing a notice of proposed rulemaking. Rules that are exempt from notice and comment procedures are also exempt from the RFA requirements, including conducting a regulatory flexibility analysis, when among other things the agency for good cause finds that notice and public procedure are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. Accordingly, the Board has concluded that the RFA’s requirements relating to initial and final regulatory flexibility analysis do not apply. 
Nevertheless, the Board seeks 
comment on whether, and the extent to which, the interim final rule would affect a significant number of small entities.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
Reason for No Prior Notice and Comment Before Adoption 
The FAA has determined, in 
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) and 553(d)(3), that notice and opportunity for prior public comment hereon are unnecessary because substantially identical special conditions have been previously subject to the public comment process in several prior instances, such that the FAA is satisfied that new comments are unlikely. For the same reason, the FAA finds that good cause exists for adopting these special conditions upon issuance. The FAA is requesting comments to allow interested persons to submit views that may not have been submitted in response to the prior opportunities for comment.

Background 
On November 7, 2014, Airbus applied 
for FAA type certification validation of 
the Model H160B helicopter. Airbus applied for an extension on November 1, 2016, which is also the date of the updated type certification basis. 
The Airbus Model H160B is a 14 CFR 
part 29 transport category, twin turboshaft engine helicopter. The Airbus Model H160B helicopter has a maximum takeoff weight of 13,436 lbs. It can hold a maximum of 12 passengers and 2 crew on board. The Airbus Model H160B helicopter is a new part 29 helicopter characterized by the integration of composite materials in its airframe construction, five main rotor blades (i.e., blue edge technology), a 
Fenestron tail rotor, and a Helionix flight deck. 
Airbus proposes that the Model 
H160B helicopter include the use of a novel and unusual design feature, which is a 30-minute AEO power rating. The 30-minute AEO power rating is generally intended to be used for hovering at increased power for search and rescue missions. Title 14 CFR 1.1 defines ‘‘rated takeoff power’’ as limited in use to no more than 5 minutes for takeoff operation. The use of takeoff power for 30 minutes will require special airworthiness standards, known as special conditions, to address the use of this 30-minute AEO rating and its effects on the rotorcraft. These special conditions will add requirements to the existing airworthiness standards in 14 CFR 29.1049 (Hovering cooling test procedures), 29.1305 (Powerplant instruments), and 29.1521 (Powerplant limitations). 
Type Certification Basis 
Under the provisions of 14 CFR 21.17, 
Airbus must show that the Model 
H160B helicopter meets applicable provisions of the regulations as listed below. The Airbus Model H160B type certification basis date is November 1, 2016. 
1. 14 CFR part 29, Amendments 29– 
1 through 29–55, dated January 31, 2012. 
2. Equivalent Safety Findings: 
(a) Sections 29.1305, 29.1309, 
29.1549, Engine Training Mode. 
(b) Sections 29.1305, 29.1321(a), 
29.135l(d)(l), and 29.1435, Part Time 
Display of Vehicle Parameters. 
(c) Sections 29.1301, 29.1305, 
29.1309, 29.1321, 29.1549, Substitution of Power Index Indicator for required powerplant instruments. 
(d) Sections 29.l545(b)(4), 29.l549(b), 
Airspeed and Powerplant indication green marking. 
(e) Section 29.1555(c)(l), Usable fuel 
capacity marking. 
(f) Section 29.807(c), Passenger 
emergency exits—other than side of fuselage. 
In addition, the certification basis 
includes certain equivalent safety findings that are not relevant to these proposed special conditions. 
In addition to the applicable 
airworthiness regulations and special conditions, the Airbus Model H160B helicopter must comply with the noise certification requirements of 14 CFR part 36, and the FAA must issue a finding of regulatory adequacy under section 611 of Public Law 92–574, the ‘‘Noise Control Act of 1972.’’ 
Regulatory Basis for Special Conditions 
The Administrator has determined 
that the applicable airworthiness 
regulations (that is, 14 CFR part 29) do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for the Airbus Model H160B helicopter because of a novel or unusual design feature. Therefore, special conditions are prescribed under the provisions of § 21.16. 
The FAA issues special conditions, as 
defined in § 11.19, in accordance with § 11.38, and they become part of the type certification basis under § 21.17(a)(2). 
Special conditions are initially 
applicable to the model for which they are issued. Should the type certificate for that model be amended later to include any other model that incorporates the same or similar novel or unusual design feature, the special conditions would also apply to the other model under § 21.101. 
Novel or Unusual Design Features 
The Airbus Model H160B helicopter 
will incorporate the following novel or 
unusual design feature: 
A 30-minute AEO power rating. 
Discussion 
The following is a summary of the 
final special conditions: 
(a) In addition to the requirements of 
§ 29.1049, the aircraft cooling effects due to the use of the 30-minute AEO power rating versus the Takeoff (five- minute) rating must be accounted for in the testing. 
(b) In addition to the requirements of 
§ 29.1305, since this new 30-minute AEO power rating has a time limit associated with its use, the pilot must have the means to identify:

(1) When the rated engine power level 
is achieved, 
(2) when the event begins, 
(3) when the time interval expires, 
and 
(4) when the cumulative time in one 
flight is reached. 
(c) In addition to the requirements of 
§ 29.1521, this new 30-minute AEO 
power rating must be limited to not more than 30 minutes per use and not more than a 50 minute cumulative time per flight. This new rating will allow the use of power above maximum continuous power (MCP) up to 30 minutes. 
(d) Furthermore, the rotorcraft flight 
manual for the Airbus Model H160B helicopter must include limitations on the use of the 30-minute AEO power rating, which state that continuous use above MCP up to take-off power is limited to 30 minutes. 
Applicability 
As discussed above, these special 
conditions are applicable to the Airbus 
Model H160B helicopter. Should Airbus apply at a later date for a change to the type certificate to include another model incorporating the same novel or unusual design feature, these special conditions would apply to that model as well. 
Conclusion 
This action affects only a certain 
novel or unusual design feature on the 
Airbus Model H160B helicopter. It is not a rule of general applicability.
