(4) Exhaust Gas Temperature Margin is 

defined as the expected margin during a sealevel takeoff on a 30-degree Celsius Outside 

Air Temperature Day. Guidance on how to 

calculate EGT margin can be found in IAE 

SIL 057. EGT margin smoothed data (data 

averaged over 6 consecutive flights) is to be 

compared with the criteria in Table 1. If a gap 

in EGT data exists due to temporary loss of 

data, you may use linear interpolation. 

Calculate operating hours from the point 

when all criteria exceed the requirements in 

Table 1. 

(5) Except as provided below, the 

inspection of paragraphs (f)(2)(i) through 

(f)(2)(iii) and (f)(3)(i) through (f)(3)(iii) must 

be performed after all the criteria in Table 1 

are satisfied; regardless of subsequent EGT 

margin calculations or engine rating changes. 

Temporary EGT margin excursions below the 

criteria in Table 1 that are corrected with 

simple troubleshooting methods (e.g., LRU 

(line replaceable unit) replacement or 

correction of a measurement error) do not 

constitute satisfying the criteria in Table 1. 

(g) Mandatory Terminating Action 

(1) As terminating action to the repetitive 

360 degree borescope inspections required in 

paragraphs (f)(2)(ii) and (f)(3)(ii) above, 

install improved durability stage 1 blade 

outer air seal segments at the next HPT 

module subassembly exposure, which is 

defined as separation of the HPT module 

mating flanges. 

(i) For V2500–A1 turbofan engines, use 

paragraphs 1.B., Concurrent Requirements, 

and paragraphs 3.(1)(a), 3.(1)(b)(iii), and 

3.(2)(a) of the Accomplishment Instructions 

of IAE SB No. V2500–ENG–72–0542, 

Revision 1, dated January 7, 2009, to do the 

installation. 

(ii) For V2522–A5, V2524–A5, V2525–D5, 

V2527–A5, V2527E–A5, V2527M–A5, 

V2528–D5, V2530–A5, and V2533–A5 

turbofan engines, use paragraphs 1.B., 

Concurrent Requirements, and paragraphs 

3.(1)(a), 3.(1)(b), 3.(1)(c)(ii), and 3.(2)(a) of the 

Accomplishment Instructions of IAE SB No. 

V2500–ENG–72–0483, Revision 3, dated 

January 7, 2009, to do the installation. 

(iii) Both IAE SBs No. V2500–ENG–72– 

0542, Revision 1, and SB No. V2500–ENG– 

72–0483, Revision 3, require modification of 

the stage 1 HPT support assembly before 

installing the new blade outer air seal 

segments. You must complete the 

modification using those SBs, as applicable 

to the appropriate engine model, to properly 

perform the mandatory terminating action of 

this AD. 

(h) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

The Manager, Engine Certification Office, 

may approve alternative methods of 

compliance for this AD. Use the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19 to make your request.

[Docket No. 30815; Amdt. No. 3454] 

Standard Instrument Approach 

Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums 

and Obstacle Departure Procedures; 

Miscellaneous Amendments 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, 

suspends, or revokes Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedures 

(SIAPs) and associated Takeoff 

Minimums and Obstacle Departure 

Procedures for operations at certain 

airports. These regulatory actions are 

needed because of the adoption of new 

or revised criteria, or because of changes 

occurring in the National Airspace 

System, such as the commissioning of 

new navigational facilities, adding new 

obstacles, or changing air traffic 

requirements. These changes are 

designed to provide safe and efficient 

use of the navigable airspace and to 

promote safe flight operations under 

instrument flight rules at the affected 

airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective December 

12, 2011. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory 

provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

certain publications listed in the 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES

Telephone: (405) 954–4164. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations, part 97 (14 CFR part 97), by 

establishing, amending, suspending, or 

revoking SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums 

and/or ODPs. The complete regulators 

description of each SIAP and its 

associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP 

for an identified airport is listed on FAA 

form documents which are incorporated 

by reference in this amendment under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR 97.20. The applicable FAA Forms 

are FAA Forms 8260–3, 8260–4, 8260– 

5, 8260–15A, and 8260–15B when 

required by an entry on 8260–15A. 

The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, in addition to 

their complex nature and the need for 

a special format make publication in the 

Federal Register expensive and 

impractical. Furthermore, airmen do not 

use the regulatory text of the SIAPs, 

Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead 

refer to their depiction on charts printed 

by publishers of aeronautical materials. 

The advantages of incorporation by 

reference are realized and publication of 

the complete description of each SIAP, 

Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on 

FAA forms is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAPs 

and the effective dates of the associated 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs. This 

amendment also identifies the airport 

and its location, the procedure, and the 

amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR Part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODP as contained in the transmittal. 

Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and 

textual ODP amendments may have 

been issued previously by the FAA in a 

Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to 

Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency 

action of immediate flight safety relating 

directly to published aeronautical 

charts. The circumstances which 

created the need for some SIAP and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODP 

amendments may require making them 

effective in less than 30 days. For the 

remaining SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs, an effective date 

at least 30 days after publication is 

provided. 

Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the 

TERPS criteria were applied to the 

conditions existing or anticipated at the 

affected airports. Because of the close 

and immediate relationship between 

these SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and 

ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find 

that notice and public procedures before 

adopting these SIAPs, Takeoff 

Minimums and ODPs are impracticable 

and contrary to the public interest and, 

where applicable, that good cause exists 

for making some SIAPs effective in less 

than 30 days. 

Conclusion 

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. 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. For the same 

reason, the FAA certifies that this 

amendment will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations, Part 97 (14 CFR part 97) by 

amending the referenced SIAPs. The 

complete regulatory description of each 

SIAP is listed on the appropriate FAA 

Form 8260, as modified by the National 

Flight Data Center (FDC)/Permanent 

Notice to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference in the 

amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 

1 CFR part 51, and § 97.20 of Title 14 

of the Code of Federal Regulations. 

The large number of SIAPs, their 

complex nature, and the need for a 

special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register 

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic 

depiction on charts printed by 

publishers of aeronautical materials. 

Thus, the advantages of incorporation 

by reference are realized and 

publication of the complete description 

of each SIAP contained in FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections and specifies the types of SIAP 

and the corresponding effective dates. 

This amendment also identifies the 

airport and its location, the procedure 

and the amendment number. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is 

effective upon publication of each 

separate SIAP as amended in the 

transmittal. For safety and timeliness of 

change considerations, this amendment 

incorporates only specific changes 

contained for each SIAP as modified by 

FDC/P–NOTAMs. 

The SIAPs, as modified by FDC/P– 

NOTAM, and contained in this 

amendment are based on the criteria 

contained in the U.S. Standard for 

Terminal Instrument Procedures 

(TERPS). In developing these changes to 

SIAPs, the TERPS criteria were applied 

only to specific conditions existing at 

the affected airports. All SIAP 

amendments in this rule have been 

previously issued by the FAA in a FDC 

NOTAM as an emergency action of 

immediate flight safety relating directly 

to published aeronautical charts. The 

circumstances which created the need 

for all these SIAP amendments requires 

making them effective in less than 30 

days.
