Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 250 / Thursday, December 30, 2010 / Proposed Rules 82325 

Executive Order 13132 

Executive Order 13132 encourages 

independent regulatory agencies to 

consider the impact of their actions on 

state and local interests. In adherence to 

fundamental federalism principles, 

NCUA, an independent regulatory 

agency as defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(5), 

voluntarily complies with the executive 

order. The proposed rule would not 

have substantial direct effect on the 

states, on the connection between the 

national government and the states, or 

on the distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. NCUA has 

determined that this proposed rule does 

not constitute a policy that has 

federalism implications for purposes of 

the executive order. 

The Treasury and General Government 

Appropriations Act, 1999—Assessment 

of Federal Regulations and Policies on 

Families 

NCUA has determined that this 

proposed rule would not affect family 

well-being within the meaning of 

section 654 of the Treasury and General 

Government Appropriations Act, 1999, 

Pub. L. 105–277, 112 Stat. 2681 (1998). 

Agency Regulatory Goal 

NCUA’s goal is to promulgate clear 

and understandable regulations that 

impose minimal regulatory burden. We 

request your comments on whether the 

proposed amendments are 

understandable and minimally intrusive 

if implemented as proposed.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Proposed rule; rescission. 

SUMMARY: We propose to rescind 

airworthiness directive (AD) 2009–18– 

19. This proposed AD results from 

mandatory continuing airworthiness 

information (MCAI) issued by EASA, to 

rescind EASA AD 2010–0083. The 

MCAI specifies the following: 

It has been assessed that multiple NRV 

[non return valve] failures in combination 

with certain trapped fuel cases could 

potentially increase the quantity of unusable 

fuel on the aeroplane, possibly leading to fuel 

starvation which could result in engines inflight shut down and would constitute an 

unsafe condition. To prevent and detect this 

condition, EASA issued EASA AD 2010– 

0083. 

Based on in service experience, mainly on 

the results of the operational test required by 

EASA AD 2010–0083, Airbus has performed 

a safety analysis on the NRV to check if the 

safety objectives are met. 

This analysis of the Collector Cell motive 

flow line NRV, taking into account all failure 

scenarios, concludes that the previous non 

compliance can be alleviated. Consequently, 

no unsafe condition exists any more on the 

affected NRV. 

For the reasons described above, 

EASA AD 2010–0083 is cancelled. 

The proposed AD would rescind the 

parallel FAA AD 2009–18–19. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this proposed AD by February 14, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Comments Invited 

We invite you to send any written 

relevant data, views, or arguments about 

this proposed AD. Send your comments 

to an address listed under the 

ADDRESSES section. Include ‘‘Docket No. 

FAA–2010–1277; Directorate Identifier 

2010–NM–218–AD’’ at the beginning of 

your comments. We specifically invite 

comments on the overall regulatory, 

economic, environmental, and energy 

aspects of this proposed AD. We will 

consider all comments received by the 

closing date and may amend this 

proposed AD based on those comments. 

We will post all comments we 

receive, without change, to http:// 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. We 

will also post a report summarizing each 

substantive verbal contact we receive 

about this proposed AD. 

Discussion 

On August 26, 2009, we issued AD 

2009–18–19, Amendment 39–16016 (74 

FR 46322, September 9, 2009). That AD 

was intended to address an unsafe 

condition on the products listed above. 

That AD requires a periodic operational 

test to check the operation of the nonreturn valve, and corrective actions if 

necessary. That AD corresponds to AD 

2008–0209, dated November 27, 2008, 

issued by the European Aviation Safety 

Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 

Agent for the Member States of the 

European Community. EASA AD 2008– 

0209 was superseded by EASA AD 

2010–0083, dated May 3, 2010. 

Since we issued AD 2009–18–19, 

EASA issued Airworthiness Directive 

2010–0083–CN, dated September 20, 

2010, to cancel EASA AD 2010–0083, 

dated May 3, 2010, for the specified 

products. EASA AD 2010–0083–CN 

states: 

It has been assessed that multiple NRV 

[non return valve] failures in combination 

with certain trapped fuel cases could 

potentially increase the quantity of unusable 

fuel on the aeroplane, possibly leading to fuel 

starvation which could result in engines inflight shut down and would constitute an 

unsafe condition. To prevent and detect this 

condition, EASA issued EASA AD 2010– 

0083. 

Based on in service experience, mainly on 

the results of the operational test required by 

EASA AD 2010–0083, Airbus has performed 

a safety analysis on the NRV to check if the 

safety objectives are met. 

This analysis of the Collector Cell motive 

flow line NRV, taking into account all failure 

scenarios, concludes that the previous non 

compliance can be alleviated. Consequently, 

no unsafe condition exists any more on the 

affected NRV. 

For the reasons described above, 

EASA AD 2010–0083 is cancelled. 

You may obtain further information 

by examining the MCAI in the AD 

docket. 

FAA’s Conclusions 

Upon further consideration, we have 

determined that the unsafe condition 

identified in AD 2009–18–19 does not 

exist. The safety analysis conducted by 

Airbus verified that the safety objectives 

(failure rate) for the NRV are met, and 

the NRV complies with regulatory 

standards. Since the unsafe condition 

identified in the AD has been 

eliminated, AD 2009–18–19 is no longer 

necessary. 

Pursuant to our bilateral agreement 

with the State of Design Authority, we 

have been notified of the rescission 

described in the MCAI. Accordingly, 

this proposed AD would rescind AD 

2009–18–19. Rescission of AD 2009–18– 

19 would not preclude the FAA from 

issuing another related action or commit 

the FAA to any course of action in the 

future. 

Differences Between This AD and the 

MCAI or Service Information 

We have reviewed the MCAI and, in 

general, agree with the substance. But 

we might have found it necessary to use 

different words from those in the MCAI 

to ensure the AD is clear for U.S. 

operators and is enforceable. In making 

these changes, we do not intend to differ 

substantively from the information 

provided in the MCAI. 

Costs of Compliance 

AD 2009–18–19 affects about 50 

airplanes of U.S. registry. The estimated 

cost of the currently required actions for 

U.S. operators is $20,000, or $400 per 

airplane. Rescinding AD 2009–18–19 

would eliminate those costs. 

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 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 this 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), 

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska, 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.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for the 

products listed above. This proposed 

AD results from mandatory continuing 

airworthiness information (MCAI) 

originated by an aviation authority of 

another country to identify and correct 

an unsafe condition on an aviation 

product. The MCAI describes the unsafe 

condition as: 

Following investigation of an in service 

event, it has been determined that in case a 

short circuit occurs on a weight-on-wheels 

(WOW) proximity sensor wiring, both circuit 

breakers that supply power to that wiring 

will trip, causing simultaneous de-power of 

all WOW proximity sensors of that part of the 

system. The loss of the corresponding WOW 

information would lead to untimely 

inhibition of warnings that could 

compromise the pilot capacity to react to 

abnormal or failure landing conditions.

Discussion 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued EASA 

Airworthiness Directive 2010–0031, 

dated March 3, 2010 (referred to after 

this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe 

condition for the specified products. 

The MCAI states: 

Following investigation of an in service 

event, it has been determined that in case a 

short circuit occurs on a weight-on-wheels 

(WOW) proximity sensor wiring, both circuit 

breakers that supply power to that wiring 

will trip, causing simultaneous de-power of 

all WOW proximity sensors of that part of the 

system. The loss of the corresponding WOW 

information would lead to untimely 

inhibition of warnings that could 

compromise the pilot capacity to react to 

abnormal or failure landing conditions. 

This AD requires the modification of the 

WOW System to improve its robustness 

against short circuit of the proximity sensors 

wiring by adding dedicated fuses to each 

WOW proximity sensor, in accordance with 

Dassault Aviation Service Bulletin (SB) F7X– 

065. 

You may obtain further information 

by examining the MCAI in the AD 

docket. 

Relevant Service Information 

Dassault-Aviation has issued 

Mandatory Service Bulletin 7X–065, 

dated July 24, 2009. The actions 

described in this service information are 

intended to correct the unsafe condition 

identified in the MCAI. 

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of This Proposed AD 

This product has been approved by 

the aviation authority of another 

country, and is approved for operation 

in the United States. Pursuant to our 

bilateral agreement with the State of 

Design Authority, we have been notified 

of the unsafe condition described in the 

MCAI and service information 

referenced above. We are proposing this 

AD because we evaluated all pertinent 

information and determined an unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other products of the same 

type design.
