59154 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 190 / Wednesday, October 1, 2014 / Proposed Rules 

• The scope of the refrigeration 

system test procedure, particularly, 

identifying which refrigeration 

components fall within the scope of 

DOE’s walk-in regulations; 

• the operation of the test procedure’s 

methodology, including the methods 

used to calculate defrost energy 

consumption; 

• the application of the test procedure 

when rating different walk-in 

refrigeration systems (i.e., mixed versus 

matched systems); 

• the calculation of the ratings of a 

given walk-in refrigeration system 

component when only component (i.e. 

the evaporator coil unit or condenser 

unit) is produced; and 

• the AEDM requirements as they 

apply to walk-in refrigeration systems. 

DOE encourages all interested persons 

to submit questions to DOE that are 

relevant to the above topics in advance 

of the meeting date to ensure that the 

agency is able to fully address these 

topics. As the intent of this meeting is 

to help manufacturers to better 

understand how to rate their equipment, 

DOE will not be discussing the 

methodology or analysis used in 

developing the recently amended energy 

conservation standards for walk-in 

refrigeration systems.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus 

Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede 

airworthiness directive (AD) 2007–14– 

05, for all Airbus Model A310 and 

Model A300 B4–600, B4–600R, and F4– 

600R series airplanes, and Model A300 

C4–605R Variant F airplanes 

(collectively called Model A300–600 

series airplanes). AD 2007–14–05 

currently requires revising the 

Airworthiness Limitations section of the 

Instructions for Continued 

Airworthiness by incorporating certain 

certification maintenance requirements. 

Since we issued AD 2007–14–05, we 

have determined that more restrictive 

maintenance requirements and 

airworthiness limitations are necessary. 

This proposed AD would require 

revising the maintenance or inspection 

program to incorporate more restrictive 

maintenance requirements and 

airworthiness limitations. We are 

proposing this AD to prevent safetysignificant latent failures that would, in 

combination with one or more other 

specific failures or events, result in a 

hazardous or catastrophic failure 

condition of avionics, hydraulic 

systems, fire detection systems, fuel 

systems, or other critical systems. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this proposed AD by November 17, 

2014. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments by 

any of the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to 

http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments.

about this proposed AD. 

Discussion 

On June 26, 2007, we issued AD 

2007–14–05, Amendment 39–15127 (72 

FR 39307, July 18, 2007). AD 2007–14– 

05 requires actions intended to address 

an unsafe condition on all Airbus Model 

A310 and A300–600 series airplanes. 

Since we issued AD 2007–14–05, 

Amendment 39–15127 (72 FR 39307, 

July 18, 2007), we have determined that 

more restrictive maintenance 

requirements and airworthiness 

limitations are necessary. The European 

Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which 

is the aviation authority for the Member 

States of the European Community, has 

issued EASA Airworthiness Directive 

2013–0072, dated March 20, 2013 

(referred to after this as the Mandatory 

Continuing Airworthiness Information, 

or ‘‘the MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe 

condition for the specified products. 

The MCAI states: 

The airworthiness limitations for Airbus 

aeroplanes are currently published in 

Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) 

documents. 

The airworthiness limitations applicable to 

the A300–600 and A300–600ST Certification 

Maintenance Requirements (CMR) were 

previously specified in the Airbus A300–600 

CMR document referenced AUST5/829//85. 

DGAC [Direction Ge ́ne ́rale de l’Aviation 

Civile] France issued AD F2005–123 http:// 

ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_F_2005_

123.pdf/AD_F-2005-123 (EASA approval 

2005–6070) [which corresponds to FAA AD 

2007–14–05, Amendment 39–15127] to 

require compliance to the requirements as 

specified in this document. 

Since that AD was issued, the CMR tasks 

are now specified in Airbus A300–600 and 

Airbus A310 ALS Part 3 documents, which 

are approved by the European Aviation 

Safety Agency (EASA). These documents 

introduce more restrictive maintenance 

requirements and/or airworthiness 

limitations. Failure to comply with the 

maintenance requirements contained in these 

documents could result in an unsafe 

condition. 

For the reasons described above, this new 

[EASA] AD retains the requirements of DGAC 

France AD F–2005–123, which is 

superseded, and requires the implementation 

of the new or more restrictive maintenance 

requirements as specified in Airbus A310 

ALS Part 3 Revision 00 and A300–600 ALS 

Part 3 Revision 00, as applicable to the 

aeroplane type/model. 

You may examine the MCAI in the 

AD docket on the Internet at http://

www.regulations.gov by searching for 

and locating Docket No. FAA–2014– 

0655. 

Relevant Service Information 

Airbus has issued A310 ALS Part 3, 

Certification Maintenance Requirements 

(CMR), dated November 30, 2012. 

Airbus has also issued A300–600 ALS 

Part 3, Certification Maintenance 

Requirements (CMR), dated April 18, 

2012. 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. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

affects 156 airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this proposed AD:

59156 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 190 / Wednesday, October 1, 2014 / Proposed Rules 

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. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

The Proposed Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, 

Inc. Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking 

(NPRM). 

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Bombardier, Inc. Model CL–600–2B19 

(Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) 

airplanes. This proposed AD was 

prompted by reports of cracking on the 

skin panels and skin splice joints and 

angles at certain stringers at various 

locations between certain fuselage 

stations. This proposed AD would 

require revising the maintenance or 

inspection program, as applicable, to 

incorporate new or revised maintenance 

requirements and airworthiness 

limitations, and incorporating structural 

repairs and modifications to preclude 

widespread fatigue damage (WFD). We 

are proposing this AD to detect and 

correct WFD, which could adversely 

affect the structural integrity of the 

airplane. 

DATES: We must receive comments on 

this proposed AD by November 17, 

2014. 

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, 

using the procedures found in 14 CFR 

11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following 

methods:
