ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Cirrus Design Corporation (Cirrus) 

Model SR22T airplanes. This AD was 

prompted by reports of partial loss of 

engine power due to a dislodged rubber 

gasket/seal being ingested into the 

turbocharger. This AD requires 

inspection and modification of the air 

box flange welds and slots and 

installation of induction system air box 

seals as applicable. We are issuing this 

AD to correct the unsafe condition on 

these products. 

DATES: This AD is effective 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 November 2, 2011 (76 FR 

67631). That NPRM proposed to require 

inspection and modification of the air 

box flange welds and slots and 

installation of induction system air box 

seals as applicable. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

received no comments on the NPRM (76 

FR 67631, November 2, 2011) 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 (76 FR 

67631, November 2, 2011) for correcting 

the unsafe condition; and 

• Do not add any additional burden 

upon the public than was already 

proposed in the NPRM. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 67 

airplanes of U.S. registry. 

We estimate the following costs to 

comply with this AD: 

ESTIMATED COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per 

product 

Cost on U.S. 

operators 

Replacement of the induction system air box 

seals and extension of air box flange slots.

2.5 work-hours × $85 per hour = $212.50 ..... $139 $351.50 $23,550.50 

According to the manufacturer, all of 

the costs of this 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.

■ 2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding 

the following new airworthiness

2012–01–11 Cirrus Design Corporation 

Airplanes: Amendment 39–16923; 

Docket No. FAA–2011–1212; Directorate 

Identifier 2011–CE–034–AD.

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
