AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), Department of 

Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for Short 

Brothers & Harland Ltd. Model SC–7 

Series 3 airplanes. This AD results from 

mandatory continuing airworthiness 

information (MCAI) issued by an 

aviation authority of another country to 

identify and correct an unsafe condition 

on an aviation product. The MCAI 

describes the unsafe condition as fatigue 

cracking, which could lead to structural 

failure of the nose landing gear (NLG). 

We are issuing this AD to require 

actions to address the unsafe condition 

on these products. 

DATES: This AD is effective March 30, 

2015. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of certain publications listed in the AD 

as of March 30, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to adding an AD that would 

apply to Short Brothers & Harland Ltd 

Model SC–7 Series 3 airplane. The 

NPRM was published in the Federal 

Register on December 8, 2014 (79 FR 

72562). The NPRM proposed to correct 

an unsafe condition for the specified 

products and was based on mandatory 

continuing airworthiness information 

(MCAI) originated by an aviation 

authority of another country. The MCAI 

states: 

A fracture of the nose landing gear (NLG) 

sliding tube was reported. The subsequent 

investigation determined fatigue cracking as 

possible cause of the failure. 

This condition, if not detected and 

corrected, could lead to structural failure of 

the NLG, possibly resulting in loss of control 

of the aeroplane during take-off or landing. 

To address this unsafe condition, the 

Messier-Dowty Ltd, the NLG manufacturer, 

issued Service Bulletin (SB) 32–17M to 

provide inspection instructions. 

Consequently Short Brothers PLC issued SB 

32–74 which references Messier-Dowty Ltd 

SB 32–17M. 

For the reasons described above, this AD 

requires one-time visual and fluorescent 

penetrant inspections and, depending on 

findings, accomplishment of applicable 

corrective action(s). 

The MCAI requires you report the 

findings to Short Brothers PLC to obtain 

FAA-approved repair instructions and 

accomplish the repair accordingly. The 

MCAI can be found in the AD docket on 

the Internet at: http://

www.regulations.gov/

#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-1001- 

0002. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (79 

FR 72562, December 8, 2014) or on the 

determination of the cost to the public. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data 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 (79 FR 

72562, December 8, 2014) for correcting 

the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 72562, 

December 8, 2014). 

Relative Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

We reviewed Short Brothers & 

Harland Ltd. Shorts Service Bulletin 

Number 32–74, dated November 1, 

2014; and SAFRAN Messier-BuggattiDowty Service Bulletin No. 32–17M, 

dated November 1, 2014. The Shorts 

Service Bulletin Number 32–74, dated 

November 1, 2014, and SAFRAN 

Messier-Buggatti-Dowty Service Bulletin 

No. 32–17M, dated November 1, 2014,

Sliding Tube. This service information 

is reasonably available; see ADDRESSES

for ways to access this service 

information. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD will affect 

24 products of U.S. registry. We also 

estimate that it would take about 5 

work-hours per product to comply with 

the basic requirements of this AD. The 

average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. 

Based on these figures, we estimate 

the cost of the AD on U.S. operators to 

be $10,200, or $425 per product. 

In addition, we estimate that any 

necessary follow-on actions would take 

about 16 work-hours and require parts 

costing $25,000, for a cost of $26,360 

per product. We have no way of 

determining the number of products 

that may need these actions. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

A federal agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, nor shall a person be subject 

to penalty for failure to comply with a 

collection of information subject to the 

requirements of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act unless that collection of 

information displays a current valid 

OMB control number. The control 

number for the collection of information 

required by this AD is 2120–0056. The 

paperwork cost associated with this AD 

has been detailed in the Costs of 

Compliance section of this document 

and includes time for reviewing 

instructions, as well as completing and 

reviewing the collection of information. 

Therefore, all reporting associated with 

this AD is mandatory. Comments 

concerning the accuracy of this burden 

and suggestions for reducing the burden 

should be directed to the FAA at 800 

Independence Ave. SW., Washington, 

DC 20591. ATTN: Information 

Collection Clearance Officer, AES–200. 

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 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.

33 CFR Part 334 

Oregon Army National Guard Danger 

Zone, Camp Rilea, Clatsop County, 

Oregon 

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

DoD 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers is establishing a new danger 

zone in the waters adjacent to Camp 

Rilea located in Clatsop County, Oregon. 

The regulation prohibits any activity by 

the public within the danger zone 

during use of weapons training ranges. 

The new danger zone is necessary to 

ensure public safety and satisfy the 

Oregon National Guard operations 

requirements for small arms training. 

DATES: Effective March 25, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Attn: CECW–CO (David B. 

Olson), 441 G Street NW., Washington,

Steve Gagnon, U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Portland District, Regulatory 

Branch, at 503–808–4379. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

response to a request from the Oregon 

Army National Guard, and pursuant to 

its authorities in Section 7 of the Rivers 

and Harbors Act of 1917 (40 Stat. 266; 

33 U.S.C. 1) and Chapter XIX of the 

Army Appropriations Act of 1919 (40 

Stat. 892; 33 U.S.C. 3), the Corps is 

amending the regulations at 33 CFR part 

334 to establish a new danger zone. The 

danger zone will prohibit access to 

waters adjacent to Camp Rilea during 

use of weapons training ranges, thereby 

ensuring that no threat is posed to 

passing water traffic due to ricochet 

rounds. 

The proposed rule was published in 

the May 2, 2012, issue of the Federal 

Register (77 FR 25952), and its 

regulations.gov docket number is COE– 

2011–0036. Three state agencies 

responded to the notice with comments. 

Most of the comments were regarding 

public access and notification methods. 

Oregon law created a recreation 

easement in 1967 guaranteeing access to 

the beaches for everyone. The 

commenting agencies expressed 

concerns that these closures would 

impinge on this recreational access, 

especially during periods of heavy 

recreational use such as clam harvesting 

activities. Oregon Parks and Recreation 

Department developed an interagency 

agreement with the Oregon Military 

Department detailing when closures can 

and cannot occur and procedures for 

those closures to ensure public safety. 

For example, the closures will not be 

scheduled during low tides most 

favorable for clam digging; there will be 

15 minutes of cease fire during each 

hour of closure to allow passage by 

boats and beach goers through the 

restricted area; and Oregon Military
