**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

**ACTION :**  Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

**SUMMARY :**  The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for RRC AE 3007A series turbofan engines. This proposed AD would require removing or performing initial and repetitive eddy current inspections (ECIs) or surface wave ultrasonic testing (SWUT) inspections on high-pressure turbine (HPT) stage 2 wheels for cracks. This proposed AD also reduces the approved life limits of certain HPT stage 2 wheels. This proposed AD results from reports of cracked HPT stage 2 wheels. We are proposing this AD to prevent uncontained failure of the HPT stage 2 wheel and damage to the airplane.

Discussion

On September 8, 2008, we issued emergency AD 2008–19–51 that applied to RRC AE 3007A series turbofan engines. That AD required performing initial and repetitive eddy current inspections (ECIs) on HPT stage 2 wheels that have accumulated 6,500 or more cycles-since-new (CSN). That AD resulted from reports of HPT stage 2 wheels that had cracks in the bores of the wheels. This condition, if not corrected, could result in a possible uncontained failure of the HPT stage 2 wheel, which could cause damage to the airplane.

Actions Since AD 2008–19–51 Was Issued

After we issued emergency AD 2008– 19–51, we determined that the cracks in the HPT stage 2 wheel bores are caused by a thermally-induced high stress in the disk bore, which was not identified at the time of the original certification. We performed a new risk assessment for cracking in the bore of the HPT stage 2 wheel using the FAA methodology guidelines in FAA Advisory Circular 39–8 and the results of the inspections from AD 2008–19–51. The risk assessment takes into account physical characteristics about the cracks that were not available when we issued AD 2008–19–51. The new risk assessment, in combination with a sufficient number of early inspections, showed that the risk profile was not rapidly increasing, which was a concern when we issued AD 2008–19–51. Using this new information, we determined we could change the compliance requirements for the ECI while still maintaining a level of safety consistent with the intent of the original AD 2008–19–51. We changed the new compliance schedule to an interval of 150 cycles-in-service (CIS) between wheel populations. The intervals for the wheel populations were based on CSN, and they varied because of the distribution of the affected wheels throughout the fleet at that time. A distribution based on CSN resulted in a compliance schedule that inspected the fleet from the highest time, highest risk


### 7210 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 32 / Thursday, February 18, 2010 / Proposed Rules

wheels to the lowest time, lowest risk wheels. It allowed us to control the overall risk consistent with the intent of AD 2008–19–51.

We also determined that a requirement to perform the ECI by a certain CIS is by itself sufficient to maintain the level of safety consistent with the intent of the original AD 2008– 19–51. Because of that determination, we no longer prohibit installing any engine that had an HPT stage 2 wheel with more than 6,500 CSN unless the wheel was inspected. Instead, we modified that requirement to apply only to HPT stage 2 wheels removed from service as a result of complying with AD 2008–26–06 or emergency AD 2008–19–
51.

Finally, we specified the part numbers (P/Ns) for the affected HPT stage 2 wheels to ensure proper identification.

On December 12, 2008, we issued AD 2008–26–06 as an immediately adopted rule to mandate a short-term program (90 days) to ensure the continued airworthiness of the product. That AD published in the Federal Register on December 24, 2008 (73 FR 78927).

Actions Since AD 2008–26–06 Was Issued

A few months after we issued AD 2008–26–06 we received reports of additional cracks in the HPT stage 2 wheels. A revised risk assessment that included these additional reports indicated that we needed to require a higher inspection rate. For this reason, we issued Emergency AD 2009–08–51 on April 10, 2009. That AD also provides instructions for an optional SWUT inspection. We then published a final rule; request for comments (74 FR 22091, May 12, 2009) to make the emergency actions applicable to all
persons.

We are now proceeding through the normal rule making process to ensure full public comment on our proposed actions. In this proposed AD, we are still requiring the same removal from service or ECI or SWUT inspections, but we are expanding the scope of the compliance schedule to more engines by including wheels with lower CSN. We are also including a requirement for repetitive inspections. In addition, we have identified by serial number a group of HPT stage 2 wheels that were repaired while in-service; because of this repair those wheels can only be inspected by the ECI method. We have also determined that the engine cycle life limit (ECLL) of the HPT stage 2 wheels, P/N 23075345 and 23084520, covered by this proposed AD should be reduced to 23,000 CSN and that the ECLL of all other part number HPT stage 2 wheels covered by this proposed AD should be reduced to 20,000 CSN on the effective date of this AD.

The occurrence of cracked HPT stage 2 wheels has been shown by statistical analysis of field data to have a causal link to a manufacturing process that led to incomplete shot peening on the drive arm fillets (shaft inner diameter fillet) of the wheel. Improvements to the fixed manufacturing process have addressed this incomplete peening condition. Therefore, HPT stage 2 wheels that have been determined to have been fully shot peened in the drive arm fillet are excluded from the inspection requirements of this proposed AD.

Relevant Service Information

We have reviewed and approved the technical contents of:

• RRC Alert Service Bulletin AE 3007A–A–72–367, Revision 2, dated June 22, 2009, that describes procedures for ECI of the HPT stage 2 wheel on AE 3007A series engines.

• RRC Service Bulletin AE 3007A– 72–368, Revision 2, dated April 28, 2009, that describes the procedures for SWUT inspection of the HPT stage 2 wheel on AE 3007A series turbofan engines.

• RRC Service Bulletin AE 3007A– 72–369, Revision 2, dated November 5, 2009, that describes the procedures for SWUT inspection of the HPT stage 2 wheel on AE 3007A series turbofan engines. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of the Proposed AD

We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other products of this same type design. We are proposing this AD, which would require:

• Removing from service any engine with certain P/N HPT stage 2 wheels that have a CSN specified in Table 1 of this AD by the compliance time specified in Table 1 of this AD; or

• Performing an ECI or SWUT inspection on certain P/N HPT stage 2 wheels that have a CSN specified in Table 1 of this AD by the compliance time specified in Table 1 of this AD; and

• Performing repetitive ECI or SWUT inspections of the HPT stage 2 wheels within 3,000 cycles-since-last inspection.

You must use the service information described previously to perform the actions required by this AD. Interim Action

These actions are interim actions and we may take further rulemaking actions in the future. Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this proposed AD would affect 1402 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it would take about 2 work-hours per engine to perform both the proposed ECI and proposed SWUT.The average labor rate is $85 per workhour. No parts are required for the inspection. We estimate the prorated life lost per stage 2 wheel is about $13,177. Based on these figures, we estimate the total cost of the proposed AD to U.S. operators to be $18,712,494. This estimate is exclusive of any warranty
coverage. 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 proposed AD would not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would 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 the proposed 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); and

3. Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities
