Airworthiness Directives; Agusta 

S.p.A. Model AB412 and AB412 EP 

Helicopters 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for the 

specified Agusta S.p.A. (Agusta) Model 

AB412 and AB412 EP helicopters. This 

AD results from mandatory continuing 

airworthiness information (MCAI) 

issued by the European Aviation Safety 

Agency (EASA), which is the Technical 

Agent for the Member States of the 

European Community. The MCAI 

establishes a life limit for certain rescue 

hoist cable assemblies and introduces 

the term ‘‘hoist lift’’ for determining 

cable life instead of the term ‘‘hoist 

cycle.’’ The MCAI also establishes a 

replacement time for each affected 

rescue hoist cable assembly (hoist cable 

assembly) for which the accumulated 

number of ‘‘hoist cycles’’ cannot be 

determined. The actions are intended to 

prevent failure of a hoist cable and 

inadvertent loss of a load. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective on 

September 21, 2009. 

We must receive comments on this 

AD by November 3, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by 

any of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

The EASA, which is the Technical 

Agent for the Member States of the 

European Community, has issued EASA 

AD No. 2008–0142–E, dated July 30, 

2008, to correct an unsafe condition 

associated with hoist cable assemblies 

installed on Agusta Model AB412 and 

AB412 EP helicopters. The MCAI 

establishes a life limit for certain hoist 

cable assemblies and introduces the 

term ‘‘hoist lift’’ for determining cable 

life instead of the term ‘‘hoist cycle.’’ 

The MCAI also establishes a 

replacement time for each affected hoist 

cable assembly for which the 

accumulated number of ‘‘hoist cycles’’ 

cannot be determined. The actions are 

intended to prevent failure of a hoist 

cable assembly and inadvertent loss of 

a hoist load. 

You may obtain further information 

by examining the MCAI and any related 

service information in the AD docket. 

Related Service Information 

Agusta has issued Alert Bollettino 

Tecnico No. 412–126, dated July 28, 

2008 (ABT). The actions described in 

the MCAI are intended to correct the 

same unsafe condition as that identified 

in the service information. 

FAA’s Evaluation and Unsafe Condition 

Determination 

The Agusta Model AB412 and AB412 

EP helicopters have been approved by 

the aviation authority of Italy and are 

approved for operation in the United 

States. Pursuant to our bilateral 

agreement with Italy, EASA, Italy’s 

Technical Agent, has notified us of the 

unsafe condition described in the MCAI. 

We are issuing this AD because we 

evaluated all information provided by 

EASA and determined the unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other Model AB412 and 

AB412 EP helicopters of these same 

type designs. 

There are no products of this type 

currently registered in the United States. 

However, this rule is necessary to 

ensure that the described unsafe 

condition is addressed if any of these 

products are placed on the U.S. Registry 

in the future. 

Differences Between This AD and the 

MCAI AD 

We use the term ‘‘before further 

flight’’ rather than ‘‘before next flight. 

Also, we are using ‘‘before further 

flight’’ rather than October 31, 2008, for 

replacing a hoist cable assembly if you 

cannot determine the ‘‘hoist cycles’’ or 

the date of hoist cable installation. 

Costs of Compliance 

There are no costs of compliance 

since there are no helicopters of this 

type design on the U.S. Registry. 

FAA’s Determination of the Effective 

Date 

Since there are currently no affected 

U.S. registered helicopters, we have 

determined that notice and opportunity 

for prior public comment before issuing 

this AD are unnecessary and that good 

cause exists for making this amendment 

effective in less than 30 days. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety, and 

we did not precede it by notice and 

opportunity for public comment. 

However, we invite you to send us any 

written data, views, or arguments 

concerning this AD. Send your 

comments to an address listed under the 

ADDRESSES section of this AD. Include 

‘‘Docket No. FAA–2009–0804; 

Directorate Identifier 2008–SW–56–AD’’ 

at the beginning of your comments. We 

specifically invite comments on the 

overall regulatory, economic, 

environmental, and energy aspects of 

this AD. We will consider all comments 

received by the closing date and may 

amend this AD because of 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 AD. 

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 

product(s) 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. 

Therefore, 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); 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.

Adoption of the Amendment 

■ Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as 

follows: 

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS 

DIRECTIVES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 39 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701. 

§ 39.13 [Amended] 

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new AD:

45756 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 171 / Friday, September 4, 2009 / Rules and Regulations

16013. Docket No. FAA–2009–0804; 

Directorate Identifier 2008–SW–56–AD. 

Effective Date 

(a) This airworthiness directive (AD) 

becomes effective on September 21, 2009. 

Other Affected ADs 

(b) None. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to Model AB412 and 

AB412 EP helicopters, with internal hoist, 

part number (P/N) 214–070–300–1 (Goodrich 

P/N 42277–1); external hoist P/N BL–10300– 

60 (Breeze Eastern) or P/N BL–20200–SERIES 

(Breeze Eastern), installed, certificated in any 

category. 

Reason 

(d) The actions are intended to prevent 

failure of a hoist cable and inadvertent loss 

of a load. 

Actions and Compliance 

(e) Required as indicated, do the following: 

(1) Before further flight, for rescue hoist 

cable assemblies, P/N 42305–179, 42277–178 

(internal hoist cable assembly) and P/N BL– 

6260, BL–9149–3 (external hoist cable 

assembly), determine the number of 

accumulated ‘‘hoist cycles’’ for each hoist 

cable assembly and add that to the number 

of accumulated ‘‘hoist lifts.’’ A hoist lift is 

defined as an unreeling and recovery of the 

cable with a load attached to the hook, 

regardless of the length of the cable that is 

deployed or recovered. An unreeling or 

recovery of the cable with no load on the 

hook is not considered to be a lift. 

(2) Before conducting the next hoist 

operation, replace any hoist cable assembly 

that has reached or exceeded 1,500 

accumulated hoist lifts or 4 years from initial 

installation, whichever occurs first. 

(3) If you cannot determine the ‘‘hoist 

cycles’’ or the date of the hoist cable 

assembly installation, before further flight, 

replace the hoist cable assembly with an 

airworthy hoist cable assembly. 

(4) This AD revises the Airworthiness 

limitations section of the maintenance 

manual by adding a life limit of 1,500 hoist 

lifts or 4 years, whichever occurs first, for the 

affected hoist cable assemblies. 

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI 

AD 

(f) We use the term ‘‘before further flight’’ 

rather than ‘‘before next flight. Also, we are 

using ‘‘before further flight’’ rather than 

October 31, 2008, for replacing a hoist cable 

if you cannot determine the ‘‘hoist cycles’’ or 

the date of hoist cable assembly installation.

(OMB) of collection-of-information 

requirements contained in regulations 

implementing Amendment 15 to the 

Fishery Management Plan for Pelagic 

Fisheries of the Western Pacific Region, 

relating to squid jig fisheries. The intent 

of this final rule is to inform the public 

that the associated permitting and

approved by OMB. 

DATES: This rule is effective on October 

5, 2009. The amendments to 50 

CFR 665.13, 665.14, 665.21, and 665.22, 

published at 73 FR 70600 (November 

21, 2008), have been approved by OMB 

and are effective on October 5, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments 

regarding the burden-hour estimates or 

other aspects of the collection-ofinformation requirements contained in 

this final rule may be submitted to 

William L. Robinson, Administrator,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Brett Wiedoff, Sustainable Fisheries 

Division, NMFS PIR, 808–944–2272. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

Federal Register document is also 

accessible at www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/. 

A final rule for Amendment 15 was 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 21, 2008 (73 FR 70600). The 

requirements of that final rule, other 

than the collection-of-information 

requirements, were effective on 

December 22, 2008. Because OMB 

approval of the collection-ofinformation requirements had not been 

received by the date that final rule was 

published, the effective date of the 

associated permitting and reporting 

requirements in that rule was delayed. 

OMB approved the collection-ofinformation requirements contained in 

the final rule on August 11, 2009. 

Under NOAA Administrative Order 

205–11, dated December 17, 1990, the 

Under Secretary for Oceans and 

Atmosphere has delegated authority to 

sign material for publication in the 

Federal Register to the Assistant 

Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA. 

Classification 

This final rule has been determined to 

be not significant for purposes of 

Executive Order 12866. 

Notwithstanding any other provision 

of the law, no person is required to 

respond to, and no person shall be 

subject to penalty for failure to comply 

with, a collection of information subject 

to the requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA), unless that 

collection of information displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

This final rule contains new 

collection-of-information requirements 

subject to the PRA under OMB Control 

Number 0648–0589. The public 

reporting burden for these requirements 

is estimated to be 0.5 hr per permit 

applicant, with renewals requiring an 

additional 0.5 hr annually and 

approximately 10 min per vessel per 

fishing day to complete Federal catch 

reports. These estimates include time 

for reviewing instructions, searching 

existing data sources, gathering and 

maintaining the data needed, and 

completing and reviewing the collection 

of information. Send comments 

regarding these burden estimates or any 

other aspect of this data collection, 

including suggestions for reducing the 

burden, to William L. Robinson (see 

ADDRESSES), or by e-mail to
