Airworthiness Directives; Turbomeca 

S.A. Turboshaft Engines 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for 

Turbomeca S.A. Arriel 1D and 1D1 

turboshaft engines with a premodification (mod) TU357 gas generator 

module (M03), installed. This AD 

requires removing the pre-modification 

(mod) TU357 gas generator module 

(M03) and replacing with a part eligible 

for installation. This AD was prompted 

by reports of divergent rubbing between 

the piston shaft small diameter 

labyrinth and the rear bearing support. 

We are issuing this AD to prevent 

failure of the labyrinth seal and engine, 

in-flight shutdown, and loss of control 

of the helicopter. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective July 

5, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to the specified products. The 

NPRM was published in the Federal 

Register on March 1, 2016 (81 FR 

10544). The NPRM proposed to correct 


asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
34266 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 104 / Tuesday, May 31, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 

an unsafe condition for the specified 

products. 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA AD 2016– 

0009, dated January 13, 2016 (referred to 

hereinafter as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an 

unsafe condition for the specified 

products. The MCAI states: 

Some cases of divergent rubbing between 

the piston shaft small diameter labyrinth and 

the rear bearing support have been reported. 

This condition, if not corrected, could lead 

to an uncommanded engine in-flight 

shutdown. 

You may obtain further information 

by examining the MCAI in the AD 

docket on the Internet at http://

www.regulations.gov by searching for 

and locating Docket No. FAA–2016– 

2859. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (81 

FR 10544, March 1, 2016). 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the available data and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting this AD 

as proposed. 

Related Service Information 

Turbomeca S.A. has issued 

Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB) No. 

292 72 1357, Version B, dated 

November 12, 2015. The MSB describes 

procedures for installing a postmodification (mod) TU357 gas generator 

module (M03). 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. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

affects 426 engines installed on 

helicopters of U.S. registry. We also 

estimate that it would take about 40 

hours per engine to comply with this 

proposed AD. The average labor rate is 

$85 per hour. Required parts cost about 

$16,500 per engine. Based on these 

figures, we estimate the cost of this 

proposed AD on U.S. operators to be 

$8,477,400. 

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. 

We are 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 

We 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 this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under 

the DOT Regulatory Policies and 

Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 

1979), 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska to the extent that it justifies 

making a regulatory distinction, and 

(4) 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

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. This rulemaking is 

promulgated under the authority 

described in Subtitle VII, Part, A, 

Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it establishes 

controlled airspace at Lisbon Municipal 

Airport, Lisbon, ND. 

History 

On February 17, 2016, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to establish Class E Airspace in the 

Lisbon, ND area. (81 FR 8026) Docket 

No. FAA–2015–5800. Interested parties 

were invited to participate in this 

rulemaking effort by submitting written 

comments on the proposal to the FAA. 

No comments were received. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order 

7400.9Z, airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015. FAA 

Order 7400.9Z is publicly available as 

listed in the ADDRESSES section of this 

document. FAA Order 7400.9Z lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

establishes Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

within a 6.5-mile radius of Lisbon 

Municipal Airport, Lisbon, ND, to 

accommodate new RNAV standard 

instrument approach procedures. 

Controlled airspace is needed for the 

safety and management of IFR 

operations at the airport. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.9Z, dated August 6, 2015, 

and effective September 15, 2015, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore: (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. Since this is a 

routine matter that only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5. This airspace action is 

not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exists 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.
