Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing 

Company Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Model 767–200 and 767–300 series 

airplanes. This AD was prompted by 

reports of water accumulation in the 

forward lower lobe of the forward cargo 

compartment. This AD requires 

installing cargo bulkhead supports, 

ceiling supports, a secondary dam 

support, drainage tubing, and ceiling 

panels to the forward lower lobe in the 

forward cargo compartment. We are 

issuing this AD to prevent water from 

accumulating in the forward lower lobe 

of the forward cargo compartment and 

entering the adjacent electronic 

equipment bay, which could result in an 

electrical short and the potential loss of 

several functions essential for safe 

flight. 

DATES: This AD is effective February 29, 

2012. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in the AD 

as of February 29, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

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. That 

NPRM published in the Federal 

Register on October 11, 2011 (76 FR 

62661). That NPRM was proposed to 

require installing cargo bulkhead 

supports, ceiling supports, a secondary 

dam support, drainage tubing, and 

ceiling panels to the forward lower lobe 

in the forward cargo compartment. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

have considered the comment received. 

Boeing supports the NPRM (76 FR 

62661, October 11, 2011). 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data, 

considered the comment received, and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting the AD 

as proposed, except for minor editorial 

changes. We have determined that these 

minor changes: 

• Are consistent with the intent that 

was proposed in the NPRM (76 FR 

62661, October 11, 2011) for correcting 

the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (76 FR 62661, 

October 11, 2011). 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this proposed AD 

affects 1 airplane of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this proposed AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Installation .................. 16 work-hours × $85 per hour = $1,360 per 

installation.

Up to $27,077 ............ Up to $28,437 ............ Up to $28,437. 

According to the manufacturer, some 

of the costs of this proposed AD may be 

covered under warranty, thereby 

reducing the cost impact on affected 

individuals. We do not control warranty 

coverage for affected individuals. As a 

result, 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 

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 

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.

Revision of Compulsory Reporting 

Points; Alaska 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action revises the 

published description of two low 

altitude Alaskan compulsory reporting 

points; one in the vicinity of Homer and 

the other in the vicinity of Kenai. 

Specifically, the FAA is revising the 

description of CLAMS and SKILA to 

address recent technical adjustments to 

their actual locations. 

DATES: Effective Dates: Effective date 

0901 UTC, April 5, 2012. The Director 

of the Federal Register approves this 

incorporation by reference action under 

1 CFR part 51, subject to the annual

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

The FAA has determined that the low 

altitude Alaskan compulsory reporting 

point CLAMS, in the vicinity of Homer, 

and SKILA, in the vicinity of Kenai, 

require their published descriptions be 

revised to match updated position 

information contained in the FAA’s 

aeronautical database and align with 

their actual locations. In addition to 

improved measurement accuracies for 

describing both low altitude compulsory 

reporting points, SKILA is also affected 

by the Anchorage VHF Omnidirectional 

Range (VOR) navigation aid relocation 

from Fire Island, AK, onto the Ted 

Stevens International Airport, AK, 

property. There are no changes to 

routing or air traffic control procedures 

resulting from this action. Accordingly, 

since this is an administrative change 

and does not affect the boundaries, 

altitudes, or operating requirements of 

the airspace, notice and public 

procedures under Title 5 U.S.C. 553(b) 

are unnecessary. 

The Rule 

The FAA amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 by 

revising the low altitude Alaskan 

compulsory reporting point CLAMS and 

SKILA descriptions to match updated 

position information contained in the 

FAA aeronautical database and more 

accurately reflect the actual locations of 

compulsory reporting points. 

Alaskan Low Altitude Reporting 

Points are listed in paragraph 7004 of 

FAA Order 7400.9V dated August 9, 

2011, and effective September 15, 2011, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1. The compulsory reporting 

points listed in this document will be 

revised subsequently in the Order. 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not 

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of 

Transportation (DOT) Regulatory 

Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; 

February 26, 1979); and (3) does not 

warrant preparation of a regulatory 

evaluation as the anticipated impact is 

so minimal. Since this is a routine 

matter that will only affect air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49 of the United States Code. 

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. 

This rulemaking is promulgated 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 

40103. Under that section, the FAA is 

charged with prescribing regulations to 

assign the use of the airspace necessary 

to ensure the safety of aircraft and the 

efficient use of airspace. This regulation 

is within the scope of that authority as 

it amends low altitude compulsory 

reporting points in Alaska. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with 311a, 

FAA Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures.’’ This 

airspace action is not expected to cause
