**DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE**

**Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration** 

**9 CFR Part 201**

**Scales; Accurate Weights, Repairs, Adjustments or Replacements After**  **Inspection**

**AGENCY :**  Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration, USDA.

**ACTION :**  Direct final rule; correction.

**SUMMARY :**  The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration is correcting a direct final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on April 29, 2014 (FR Doc. 2014–9655). The direct final rule required all scales used to weigh livestock, livestock carcasses, live poultry, or feed meet requirements contained in section 5.59, Electronic Livestock, Meat, and Poultry Evaluation Systems and/or Devices of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Specifications, Tolerances, and other Technical Requirements for Weighing and Measuring Devices (NIST Handbook 44) 2013 edition. The NIST Handbook 44 includes additional requirements for scales used to weigh live animals, livestock and poultry carcasses, which should not have been excluded by this rule. The direct final rule should have incorporated, by reference, all of the General Code, Scales Code, and Weight Code from the 2013 edition of the NIST Handbook 44. Additionally, the direct final rule must reflect the change to the heading of § 201.71, as a result of NIST Handbook 44 requirements for electronic devices and systems and the correct email address for the National Conference for Weights and Measures.

**DATES :**  This correction is effective June 30, 2014. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of June 30, 2014.

**ACTION :**  Final rule.

hanger bearings (bearing) installed. AD 2013–11–05 required inspecting the bearing to determine whether an incorrectly manufactured seal material is installed on the bearing. This new AD retains the repetitive inspection of the bearings and also requires replacing the defective bearings. This AD was prompted by a report that certain bearings were manufactured with an incorrect seal material that does not meet Bell specifications. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the bearing and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

**DATES :**  This AD is effective July 14,
2014.

The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of June 19, 2013 (78 FR 33204, June 4, 2013).

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 

Discussion

We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2013–11–05, Amendment 39–17465 (78 FR 33204, June 4, 2013) (AD 2013–11–05). AD 2013–11–05 applied to Bell Model 214B, 214B–1, and 214ST helicopters with certain part-numbered bearings installed. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on August 12, 2013 (78 FR 48822). The NPRM proposed to retain the repetitive inspection requirements of AD 2013–11–05 and also proposed to require replacing any bearing that has black seal material with a bearing that has correct seal material within 500 hours time-in-service (TIS) or 6 months, whichever occurs earlier, as a terminating action. AD 2013–11–05 was prompted by a report that all part number 214–040–606–005 and 214– 040–606–101 bearings delivered between May 2011 and June 2012 were manufactured with incorrect seal material that does not meet Bell’s operating and environmental temperature specifications. Since we issued AD 2013–11–05, we determined that replacing the bearings within 500 hours TIS will provide an acceptable level of safety and should be a required terminating action for the repetitive inspections. These actions are intended to prevent loss of bearing grease, failure of the bearing, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

Comments

We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD, but we did not receive any comments on the NPRM (78 FR 48822, August 12, 2013).

FAA’s Determination

We have reviewed the relevant information and determined that an unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist or develop on other helicopters of these same type designs and that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD requirements as proposed.

Related Service Information

Bell issued Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) 214–13–74, Revision A, dated March 25, 2013, for Model 214B and 214B–1 helicopters serial number (S/N) 28001 through 28070, and ASB 214ST– 13–90, Revision A, dated March 25, 2013, for Model 214ST helicopters. Both ASBs describe procedures to determine whether any bearing with incorrect seal material is installed on the helicopter and for inspecting any installed bearing with incorrect seal material every 10 hours TIS. Both ASBs also specify replacing any bearing with incorrect seal material that is leaking grease or damaged. Finally, the ASBs specify replacing any bearing with incorrect seal material within 500 hours TIS or by December 31, 2013. Differences Between This AD and the Service Information

The Bell ASBs allow 25 hours TIS for the initial inspection, while this AD requires inspecting within 10 hours TIS. The ASBs specify replacing any bearing with black seal material within 500 hours TIS or by December 31, 2013. This AD requires replacement within 500 hours TIS or 6 months, whichever occurs earlier. Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this AD affects 26 helicopters of U.S. Registry. We estimate that operators will incur the following costs in order to comply with this AD. At an average labor cost of $85 per hour, inspecting the bearings requires about 2.5 work hours, for a cost per helicopter of $213 and a cost of $5,538 for the fleet. Replacing a defective bearing requires about 3 work hours, and required parts would cost $1,372, for a cost per helicopter of $1,627.

According to Bell’s service information some of the costs of this AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage by Bell. Accordingly, we have included all costs in our cost estimate. 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 have 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.


### 32861 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 110 / Monday, June 9, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

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 DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),

(3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska to the extent that a regulatory distinction is required, 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

(b) Unsafe Condition

This AD defines the unsafe condition as a bearing with incorrect seal material, which could fail under extreme temperature or environmental conditions, resulting in loss of tail rotor control and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

(c) Affected ADs
