Finally, MSPB also elects to make the 

amendments set forth herein effective 

immediately upon publication of this 

final rule. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), ‘‘the 

required publication or service of a 

substantive rule shall be made not less 

than 30 days before its effective date, 

except * * * as otherwise provided by 

the agency for good cause found and 

published with the rule.’’ For the 

reasons identified above, and in light of 

the importance of promptly removing 

and correcting any inconsistent, 

incorrect, and confusing material 

inadvertently introduced into MSPB’s 

adjudicatory regulations, the Board 

finds that good cause exists to waive the 

30-day publication requirement.

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 all 

Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 7X 

airplanes. This AD requires revising the 

aircraft flight manual (AFM); performing 

operational tests of the oxygen mask 

oxygen assembly; and replacing affected 

stowage boxes, which terminates the 

AFM revision and operational tests. 

This AD was prompted by failure of the 

flight crew oxygen supply due to a 

potentially defective flight crew mask 

oxygen assembly. We are issuing this 

AD to prevent failure to supply oxygen 

upon demand to the flight crew in flight 

in ‘‘100%’’ and ‘‘Emergency’’ modes, 

which, in an emergency, may result in 

incapacitation of the flight crew. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective May 

6, 2013. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in the AD 

as of May 6, 2013. 

We must receive comments on this 

AD by June 3, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

The European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA), which is the Technical Agent 

for the Member States of the European 

Community, has issued emergency 

EASA Airworthiness Directive 2013– 

0059–E, dated March 8, 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: 

During an aeroplane delivery flight test, the 

flight crew oxygen supply failed. The 

technical investigations carried out by the 

flight crew oxygen mask and stowage box 

manufacturer identified potentially defective 

flight crew mask oxygen assembly part 

number (P/N) MSE30–005–3–8 including 

stowage box P/N CSD 30–005–3–8. 

This condition, if not detected and 

corrected, may cause failure to supply 

oxygen upon demand to the flight crew in 

flight in ‘‘100%’’ and ‘‘Emergency’’ modes 

which, in case of an emergency, may result 

in incapacitation of the flight crew. 

To address this potential unsafe condition, 

Dassault Aviation (DA) issued Service 

Bulletin (SB) F7X–241, containing 

instructions to identify and replace the 

affected flight crew oxygen masks and 

stowage boxes. 

For the reasons described above, this 

[EASA] AD requires [revision of the aircraft 

flight manual and] accomplishment of 

operational tests of each flight crew oxygen 

mask and replacement of the affected 

stowage boxes with serviceable parts. 

Replacement constitutes terminating action 

for the [AFM revision and] repetitive 

operational tests. 

You may obtain further information by 

examining the MCAI in the AD docket. 

Relevant Service Information 

Dassault Aviation has issued 

Mandatory Service Bulletin 7X–241, 

dated March 7, 2013. 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 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 issuing this 

AD because we evaluated all pertinent 

information and determined the unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other products of the same 

type design. 

Explanation of Compliance Times 

The MCAI requires revising the AFM 

before further flight. This AD, however, 

provides a compliance time of 14 days, 

which will provide an adequate level of 

safety without unnecessarily grounding 

airplanes. 

Replacing affected oxygen mask 

stowage boxes terminates the 

requirement to revise the AFM. The 

MCAI requires replacing the stowage 

boxes within a specified time after the 

effective date. This AD, however, 

requires compliance within the 

specified time after the AFM revision to 

avoid potentially conflicting compliance 

times that could require operators to 

replace the stowage box before revising 

the AFM. 

FAA’s Determination of the Effective 

Date 

An unsafe condition exists that 

requires the immediate adoption of this 

AD. The FAA has found that the risk to 

the flying public justifies waiving notice 

and comment prior to adoption of this 

rule because failure to supply oxygen 

upon demand to the flight crew in flight 

in ‘‘100%’’ and ‘‘Emergency’’ modes in 

an emergency may result in 

incapacitation of the flight crew. 

Therefore, we determined that notice 

and opportunity for public comment 

before issuing this AD are impracticable 

and that good cause exists for making 

this amendment effective in fewer 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. We 

invite you to send any written relevant 

data, views, or arguments about this AD. 

Send your comments to an address 

listed under the ADDRESSES section. 

Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA–2013–0306; 

Directorate Identifier 2013–NM–049– 

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. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD will affect 9 

products of U.S. registry. We also 

estimate that it will take about 4 workhours per product to comply with the 

basic requirements of this AD. The 

average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. 

Required parts will cost about $0 per 

product. Where the service information 

lists required parts costs that are 

covered under warranty, we have 

assumed that there will be no charge for 

these parts. As we do not control 

warranty coverage for affected parties, 

some parties may incur costs higher 

than estimated here. Based on these 

figures, we estimate the cost of this AD 

to the U.S. operators to be up to $3,060, 

or $340 per product. 

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.

23460 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 76 / Friday, April 19, 2013 / 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 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.

Eurocopter France (Eurocopter) Model 

AS332C, AS332L, and AS332L1 

helicopters and superseding an AD for 

Model AS332L2 and EC225LP 

helicopters. This AD requires inspecting 

the chip detector and modifying the 

chip collector, both installed on the 

main gearbox (MGB). This AD is 

prompted by an investigation which 

showed a failure within the epicyclic 

reduction gear module (epicyclic 

module) resulted in the rupture of the 

MGB case and separation of the main 

rotor head of a Model AS332L2 

helicopter. These actions are intended 

to prevent failure of the MGB and 

subsequent loss of control of the 

helicopter.
