**ACTION :**  Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

**SUMMARY :**  The FAA proposes to supersede an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G airplanes. The existing AD currently requires revising the FAA-approved maintenance program by incorporating new airworthiness limitations for fuel tank systems to satisfy Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 requirements. That AD also requires the accomplishment of certain fuel system modifications, the initial inspections of certain repetitive fuel system limitations to phase in those inspections, and repair if necessary. This proposed AD would correct certain part number references, add an additional inspection area, and for certain airplanes, require certain actions to be re-accomplished according to revised service information. This proposed AD results from a report of incorrect accomplishment information in the service information cited by the existing AD. We are proposing this AD to prevent the potential for ignition sources inside fuel tanks caused by latent failures, alterations, repairs, or maintenance actions, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane. **DATES :**  We must receive comments on this proposed AD by February 22, 2011.

**ADDRESSES :**  You may send comments by any of the following methods:

Discussion

The FAA has examined the underlying safety issues involved in fuel tank explosions on several large transport airplanes, including the adequacy of existing regulations, the service history of airplanes subject to those regulations, and existing maintenance practices for fuel tank systems. As a result of those findings, we issued a regulation titled ‘‘Transport Airplane Fuel Tank System Design Review, Flammability Reduction and Maintenance and Inspection Requirements ’’ (66 FR 23086, May 7, 2001). In addition to new airworthiness standards for transport airplanes and new maintenance requirements, this rule included Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 ( ‘‘ SFAR 88, ’’ Amendment 21–78, and subsequent Amendments 21–82 and 21–83).

Among other actions, SFAR 88 requires certain type design ( i.e., type certificate (TC) and supplemental type certificate (STC)) holders to substantiate that their fuel tank systems can prevent ignition sources in the fuel tanks. This requirement applies to type design holders for large turbine-powered transport airplanes and for subsequent modifications to those airplanes. It requires them to perform design reviews and to develop design changes and maintenance procedures if their designs do not meet the new fuel tank safety standards. As explained in the preamble to the rule, we intended to adopt airworthiness directives to mandate any changes found necessary to address unsafe conditions identified as a result of these reviews.

In evaluating these design reviews, we have established four criteria intended to define the unsafe conditions associated with fuel tank systems that require corrective actions. The percentage of operating time during which fuel tanks are exposed to flammable conditions is one of these criteria. The other three criteria address the failure types under evaluation: single failures, single failures in combination with a latent condition(s), and in-service failure experience. For all four criteria, the evaluations included consideration of previous actions taken that may mitigate the need for further action.

We have determined that the actions identified in this AD are necessary to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.

On September 11, 2008, we issued AD 2008–20–01, amendment 39–15680 (73 FR 56464, September 29, 2008), for all Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G airplanes. That AD requires revising the maintenance program by incorporating new airworthiness limitations for fuel tank systems to satisfy Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 88 requirements. That AD also requires the accomplishment of certain fuel system modifications, the initial inspections of certain repetitive fuel system limitations to phase in those inspections, and repair if necessary. That AD resulted from a design review of the fuel tank systems. We issued that AD to prevent the potential for ignition sources inside fuel tanks caused by latent failures, alterations, repairs, or maintenance actions, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane. Actions Since Existing AD Was Issued

Since we issued AD 2008–20–01, we received information from the manufacturer that Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–21, Revision 2, dated November 20, 2006 (referenced in AD 2008–20–01 as a source of additional guidance), contained an error in referencing certain part numbers for tube, fuel tank, and bulkhead joint jumpers. The part numbers as referenced in Revision 2 of that service bulletin do not exist. The manufacturer has published Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–21, Revision 4, dated January 6, 2010, to provide the correct part number references. We have revised Table 1 of this AD accordingly.

We have also received information from the manufacturer that the last two bulleted steps of paragraphs 2.C.(2)(b) 5 and 2.C.(2)(c) 3 of Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–22, Revision 3, dated March 28, 2008, contain an error. Those steps specify that the GFI FAILURE and GROUND FAULT DETECTED lights illuminate for 2 seconds. An alternate means of compliance (AMOC) for AD 2008–20–01 was issued to disregard those steps. The manufacturer has advised that it is planning to publish a revision to Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–22, Revision 3, dated March 28, 2008. However, we have determined that delaying this action until after the release of this planned revision is not warranted, since sufficient notice of the error in Lockheed Service Bulletin 382– 28–22, Revision 3, dated March 28, 2008, exists.

Relevant Service Information

We have also reviewed Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–19, Revision 4, dated September 18, 2008. That service bulletin describes procedures that are similar to those in Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–19, Revision 3, dated November 30, 2006 (which was referenced in AD 2008–20–01 as a source of additional guidance). However, Revision 4 of Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–19 specifies an additional inspection area (fuel probes) for the dry bay and other areas and revises actions. Revision 4 of that service bulletin also specifies that for airplanes on which the actions described in Revision 3 of Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–19 are done, it is necessary to do the additional action of inspecting the fuel probes when doing the zonal inspection of the drybay areas and other areas and reaccomplish certain inspections of certain fuel system electrical wires (such as ensuring that generator wire bundles are separated from fuel tank boundaries, certain wire bundles are spot tied with certain lacing braid, and that the fuel quantity indication system (FQIS) wiring in certain locations is routed separately from AC power wires and is shielded using the correct standard).

We have also reviewed Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–20, Revision 11, dated April 20, 2010. That service bulletin describes procedures that are similar to Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–20, Revision 5, dated June 19, 2008 (which was referenced as a source of guidance in AD 2008–20–01), for installing ground fault interrupters (GFIs) and flame arrestors for protection of the fuel system. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD

We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an unsafe condition that is likely to develop on other airplanes of the same type design. For this reason, we are proposing this AD, which would supersede AD 2008– 20–01 and would retain the requirements of the existing AD. This


### 487 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 3 / Wednesday, January 5, 2011 / Proposed Rules

proposed AD would also require certain actions to be re-accomplished according to revised service information described previously, except as discussed under

‘‘Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service Information. ’’
Difference Between the Proposed AD and the Service Information

Although Lockheed Service Bulletin 382–28–19, Revision 4, dated September 18, 2008, describes procedures for notifying Lockheed of any discrepancies found during inspection, this proposed AD would not require that action. Explanation of Change to This AD

We have removed the ‘‘ Service Bulletin Reference ’’ paragraph from this NPRM. That paragraph was identified as paragraph (f) in AD 2008–20–01. Instead, we have provided the full service bulletin citations throughout this NPRM. Explanation of Change to Applicability

We have revised the NPRM to identify the legal name of the manufacturer as published in the most recent type certificate data sheet for the affected airplane models.
Costs of Compliance

There are about 62 airplanes of the affected design in the worldwide fleet. The following table provides the estimated costs for U.S. operators to comply with this proposed AD. The average labor rate per hour is $85. The costs of the new requirements of this proposed AD are as follows:

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 have 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. Is not a ‘‘ significant rule’’ under the DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); 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.

We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket. See the **ADDRESSES** section for a location to examine the regulatory evaluation.
