### Airworthiness Directives; Airbus **Airplanes**

**AGENCY** 

### : Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

**ACTION** 

### : Final rule.

**SUMMARY** 

### : We are superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2004–15– 07, for certain Airbus Model A310 series airplanes. AD 2004–15–07 required repetitive inspections for fatigue cracking of the area around the fasteners of the landing plate of the aileron access doors of the bottom skin panel of the wings, and related corrective action. AD 2004–15–07 also provided for an optional terminating action to end the repetitive inspections. This new AD reduces the initial inspection compliance time and intervals, and provides additional terminating action options. This AD was prompted by a reassessment of a previous fatigue threshold and inspection interval,
which resulted in a determination that reduced inspection thresholds and intervals for accomplishment of the tasks are necessary. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the area around the fasteners of the landing plate of the aileron access doors and the bottom skin panel of the wings, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the wings.

**DATES** 

### : This AD becomes effective September 20, 2013.

The Director of the Federal Registe approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of September 20, 2013.

The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain other publications listed in this AD as of August 31, 2004 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004).

Discussion

We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products. The NPRM was published in the Federal Register on February 5, 2013 (78 FR 8054), and proposed to supersede AD 2004–15–07, Amendment 39–13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004). The NPRM proposed to correct 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 Airworthiness Directive 2011–0125, dated June 30, 2011 (referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition for the specified products.
The MCAI states:

DGAC [Direction Ge  ́ ne

 ́rale de l’Aviation Civile] France issued AD 2003–242(B) [which corresponds to FAA AD 2004–15–07, Amendment 39–13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004)] to require an inspection programme for aeroplanes with pre- and post-Airbus modification 05106 configurations (Airbus SB A310–57–2004) in order to detect any crack located on the trailing edge of the wingbottom skin No. 2 panel of the all-speedaileron servo control bay. A crack at this location, if not detected and corrected, would propagate towards the wing rear spar and ultimately into the wing fuel tank area.
Undetected cracks would affect the structural integrity of the [left hand] LH and/or [right hand] RH wing.

Since issuance of DGAC France AD 2003– 242(B) [which corresponds to FAA AD 2004– 15–07, Amendment 39–13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004)], a reassessment of the previous fatigue threshold and inspection interval has been completed. As a result of the reassessment, the inspection thresholds and intervals for accomplishment of the tasks
as defined in Airbus SB A310–57–2082 have been adjusted and reduced. Airbus SB A310– 57–2082 Revision 03 has been published, in which the compliance time periods for these inspection thresholds and intervals have
been amended.

For the reasons stated above, this [EASA] AD retains the requirements of the DGAC France AD 2003–242(B) [which corresponds to FAA AD 2004–15–07, Amendment 39– 13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004)], which is superseded, and requires implementation of the amended inspection programme.



### Corrective action includes doing a permanent repair (installing a repair plate and new landing plates), a temporary repair (crack-stop drilling and application of a protective coating) followed by repetitive inspections until a permanent repair is done, and a repair approved by the FAA or EASA (or its delegated agent). This AD also adds optional permanent repairs.

The initial inspection compliance times are dependent on the configuration (modification status, repair status, and crack length), and type of use (short range, long range, and normal). For airplanes without temporary repairs, the initial inspection compliance time ranges between 2,000 total flight cycles or 10,200 total flight hours, whichever occurs first; and 12,000 total flight cycles or 24,000 total flight hours, whichever occurs first. If the total flight cycles or total flight hours compliance time has been exceeded, the initial inspection compliance time (grace period) ranges between 200 flight cycles or 1,000 flight hours, to within 1,000 flight cycles or 2,800 flight hours, whichever occurs
first.

For airplanes with temporary repairs, the initial inspection compliance time is dependent on crack length and ranges between 7 flight cycles or 35 flight hours, whichever occurs first, since the repair; to within 100 flight cycles or 200 flight hours, whichever occurs first, since the repair.

For airplanes with a temporary repair, the compliance time for completing the permanent repair ranges between 35 flight cycles or 175 flight hours, whichever occurs first, after completing the temporary repair; to within 500 flight cycles or 1,000 flight hours,


## 49916 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 159 / Friday, August 16, 2013 / Rules and Regulations

whichever occurs first, after completing the temporary repair.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

Comments

We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. We
considered the comment received.

Request To Change Service Information
Reference

FedEx stated that paragraph (n)(1)(iii) in the NPRM (78 FR 8054, February 5, 2013) should refer to Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, Revision 02, dated October 17, 2008,
instead of Airbus Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, dated June 11, 2002. FedEx noted that paragraph (n)(1)(i) also
refers to Airbus Service Bulletin A310– 57–2082, dated June 11, 2002.

We agree to change the reference, and have changed paragraph (n)(1)(iii) in this AD accordingly.

Conclusion

We reviewed the available data, including the comment received, and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD with the changes described previously— and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these changes:

• Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the NPRM (78 FR 8054, February 5, 2013) for correcting the unsafe condition; and

• Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was already proposed in the NPRM (78 FR 8054, February 5, 2013).

Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this AD will affect about 58 products of U.S. registry.

The actions that were required by AD 2004–15–07, Amendment 39–13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004), and are
retained in this AD take about 2 workhours per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work hour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the currently required actions is $170 per product.

We estimate that it will take about 4 work-hours per product to comply with the new basic requirements of this AD.The average labor rate is $85 per workhour. Based on these figures, we
estimate the cost of this AD to the U.S. operators to be $19,720, or $340 per product.

We have received no definitive data that would enable us to provide cost
estimates for the on-condition actions specified in this AD. We have no way of determining the number of products that may need these actions. 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 that 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; 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.

We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket.

Examining the AD Docket

You may examine the AD docket on
the Internet at http:// www.regulations.gov; or in person at the Docket Operations office between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. The AD docket contains this AD, the regulatory evaluation, any comments received, and

With New Service Information and New Options

This paragraph restates the optional terminating action information specified in paragraph (d) of AD 2004–15–07, Amendment 39–13741 (69 FR 44592, July 27, 2004), with new service information and new options. Modification of the landing plate of the aileron access doors of the wing bottom skin panel No. 2 of the left and right wings by doing all the actions, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A310–57–2081, dated June 11, 2002; or Airbus Service Bulletin A310– 57–2081, Revision 03, dated October 13, 2010; or by doing the repair in accordance with Airbus Repair Instruction R573–49243, Revision C, dated July 16, 2003; or Airbus Repair Instruction R573–49237, Revision D, dated July 16, 2003; which terminates the requirements of this AD. Where Airbus Service Bulletin A310–57–2081, dated June 11, 2002; and Airbus Service Bulletin A310– 57–2081, Revision 03, dated October 13, 2010; specify contacting the manufacturer for disposition of certain repair conditions that might be associated with the modification procedure, this AD requires that the repair be done in accordance with a method approved by either the Manager, International Branch, ANM–116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA; the Direction Ge  ́ ne

 ́rale de l’Aviation Civile (DGAC) (or its delegated agent); or the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) (or its delegated agent).

(k) New Inspections, Related Investigative Actions, and Corrective Actions

Except as specified in paragraph (m)(1) of this AD, at the applicable time specified in Paragraph 1.E., ‘‘Compliance,’’ of Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, Revision 03, dated November 15, 2010: Do an HFEC inspection to detect cracking of the area around the fasteners of the landing plate of the wing bottom skin panel No. 2 of the left and right wings; and do all applicable corrective actions; in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, Revision 03, dated November 15, 2010, except as required by paragraph (m)(2) of this AD. Do all applicable corrective actions before further flight. Repeat the inspection of the area around the fasteners of the landing plate of the wing bottom skin panel number 2 of the left and right wings thereafter at the applicable intervals, including the compliance times for post temporary repair inspections, specified in Paragraph 1.E., ‘‘Compliance,’’ of Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, Revision 03, dated November 15, 2010, except as specified in paragraph (m)(3) of this AD. The temporary repair of cracks, as identified in Airbus Mandatory Service Bulletin A310–57–2082, Revision 03, dated November 15, 2010, does not constitute terminating action for the repetitive inspections required by this AD. Accomplishment of the inspection required by this paragraph terminates the requirements of paragraphs (g) and (h) of this AD. Doing the modification specified in paragraph (j) of this AD terminates the repetitive inspections required by this paragraph.

(l) New Permanent Repair

### Drawbridge Operation Regulation; **Taunton River, Fall River and Somerset, MA** 

**AGENCY** 

### : Coast Guard, DHS.

**ACTION** 

### : Final rule.

**SUMMARY** 

### : The Coast Guard has changed the drawbridge operation regulations that govern the operation of the Veterans Memorial Bridge across the Taunton River, mile 2.1, between Fall River and Somerset, Massachusetts. The bridge owner, Massachusetts Department of Transportation, submitted a request to reduce the hours the bridge is crewed based upon infrequent requests to open the draw. It is expected that this change to the regulations will provide relief to the bridge owner from crewing the bridge while continuing to meet the reasonable needs of navigation.
