ACTION: Final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: We are superseding 

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015–02– 

04 for certain Dassault Aviation Model 

MYSTERE–FALCON 50 airplanes. AD 

2015–02–04 required installing two 

protective plates between the electrical 

wiring under the glare shield and the 

engine fire pull handles. This new AD 

continues to require installing two 

protective plates between the electrical 

wiring under the glare shield and the 

engine fire pull handles. This AD was 

prompted by our determination that the 

published version of AD 2015–02–04 

incorrectly identified the AD number as 

‘‘AD 2014–02–04’’ in a certain 

paragraph. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent chafing of the electrical wiring, 

which could result in a short circuit and 

generation of smoke in the cockpit, 

potential loss of several functions 

essential for safe flight, and consequent 

reduced controllability of the airplane. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective April 

29, 2015. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of March 6, 2015 (80 FR 5034, 

January 30, 2015).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

On January 12, 2015, we issued AD 

2015–02–04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 


asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 71 / Tuesday, April 14, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 19877 

FR 5034, January 30, 2015). AD 2015– 

02–04 applied to certain Dassault 

Aviation Model MYSTERE–FALCON 50 

airplanes. AD 2015–02–04 was 

prompted by a report of an untimely 

and intermittent indication of slat 

activity due to chafing of the electrical 

wiring under the glare shield and 

behind the flight deck front panel. AD 

2015–02–04 required installing two 

protective plates between the electrical 

wiring under the glare shield and the 

engine fire pull handles. We issued AD 

2015–02–04 to prevent chafing of the 

electrical wiring, which could result in 

a short circuit and generation of smoke 

in the cockpit, potential loss of several 

functions essential for safe flight, and 

consequent reduced controllability of 

the airplane. 

AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39– 

18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015), 

corresponds to Mandatory Continuing 

Airworthiness Information (MCAI) 

European Aviation Safety Agency 

(EASA) Airworthiness Directive 2014– 

0024, dated January 23, 2014. You may 

examine the MCAI on the Internet at 

http://www.regulations.gov by searching 

for and locating Docket No. FAA–2015– 

0825. 

Since we issued AD 2015–02–04, 

Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, 

January 30, 2015), we have determined 

that the published version of AD 2015– 

02–04 incorrectly identified the AD 

number in the Product Identification 

line as ‘‘AD 2014–02–04.’’ In order to 

refer to the correct AD number, this AD 

replaces ‘‘AD 2014–02–04’’ with ‘‘AD 

2015–02–04’’ in the Product 

Identification line in the regulatory text. 

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. 

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 of the urgency to correct 

the AD number in the regulatory text to 

avoid non-compliance. Therefore, we 

determined that notice and opportunity 

for prior public comment are 

unnecessary. 

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–2015–0825; 

Directorate Identifier 2015–NM–035– 

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 affects 250 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

The actions required by AD 2015–02– 

04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, 

January 30, 2015), and retained in this 

AD are as follows: 

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Retained installation from AD 2015–02–04, Amendment 39–18071 (80 FR 5034, January 30, 2015).26 work-hours × $85 per hour = 

$2,210.

$96 $2,306 $576,500 

This AD adds no additional economic 

burden. 

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 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. 

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 

Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation 

safety, Incorporation by reference, 

Safety. 

Adoption of the Amendment 

Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as 

follows:

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

The Boeing Company Model 777–200, 

–200LR, –300ER, and 777F series 

airplanes. This AD was prompted by a 

report of a jettison fuel pump that was 

shut off by the automatic shutoff system 

during the center tank fuel scavenge 

process on a short-range flight and a 

subsequent failure analysis of the fuel 

scavenge system. This AD requires 

making wiring changes, modifying 

certain power panels, installing 

electrical load management system 2 

(ELMS2) software, and accomplishing a 

functional test. We are issuing this AD 

to prevent extended dry running of the 

jettison fuel pumps, which can be a 

potential ignition source inside the 

main fuel tanks, and consequent fuel 

tank fire or explosion in the event that 

the jettison pump overheats or has an 

electrical fault. 

DATES: This AD is effective May 19, 

2015. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of May 19, 2015.
