. **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 was published in the Federal Register on January 31, 2013 (78 FR 6749). That NPRM proposed to require a one-time ultrasonic C-scan inspection of LP compressor blades that have accumulated more than 2,500 FC since new. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) subsequently superseded EASA AD 2012–0247, dated November 20, 2012, by issuing EASA AD 2013–0060, dated March 11, 2013, to include a re-inspection requirement for certain LP compressor blades that were not inspected correctly.

The new mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)

states:

Low-Pressure (LP) compressor partial aerofoil blade release events have occurred in service on RR Trent 700 engines. While primary containment of the released sections has been achieved in each case, some of the


### 37704 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 121 / Monday, June 24, 2013 / Rules and Regulations

releases did exhibit secondary effects that are considered to present a potential hazard. Previously, expeditious actions by RR have mitigated the risks presented by these effects, by removal from service of batches of LP compressor blades. However, some causal factors still exist that are not fully understood.

This condition, if not detected and corrected, could lead to LP compressor blade release with possible consequent loss of the engine nose cowl, under cowl fires and forward projection of secondary debris, possibly resulting in damage to the aeroplane and/or injury to persons on the ground.

To mitigate the risk of further partial fanblade release events, RR issued NonModification Service Bulletin (NMSB) RB.211–72–G872, providing instructions for an ultrasonic inspection of the affected LP compressor blades to detect subsurface anomalies in the aerofoil and, depending on findings, replacement of LP compressor blades.

To address this potential unsafe condition,EASA issued AD 2012–0247 to require a onetime inspection of the affected LP compressor blades.

Since that AD was issued, a population of LP compressor blades have been identified as incorrectly inspected and therefore require re-inspection. Consequently, RR issued NMSB RB.211–72–H311 to provide the instructions for this re-inspection.

For the reason described above, this AD retains the requirements of EASA AD 2012– 0247, which is superseded, and adds, for the affected group of LP compressor blades, a one-time re-inspection.

Comments

We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. We considered the comments received.
Request To Change Summary

RR requested that we change the Summary to state that the AD would require a one-time ultrasonic inspection of LP compressor blades (without being specific to C–scan). The reason for this request is that RR issued Revision 2 to NMSB RB.211–72–G872, dated March 8, 2013, which added phased array as an alternative ultrasonic technique to C–

scan.

We agree. We changed the AD Summary to state: ‘‘This AD requires a one-time ultrasonic inspection of LP compressor blades that had . . .’’
Request To Change Discussion

RR requested that we change the Discussion to note that EASA AD 2012– 0247, dated November 20, 2012, was superseded by EASA AD 2013–0060, dated March 11, 2013, which includes a re-inspection requirement for certain LP compressor blades that were not inspected correctly.

We agree. We referenced EASA AD 2013–0060, dated March 11, 2013 in the Discussion and Related Information paragraphs of this AD.
Request To Change Relevant Service Information

RR requested that the Relevant Service Information paragraph be changed because they issued NMSB RB.211–72–G872, Revision 2, dated March 8, 2013. This NMSB adds phasedarray ultrasonic inspection as an onwing or in-shop alternative to the C– scan inspection technique. Also, because certain LP compressor blades were not inspected correctly in accordance with RR NMSB RB.211–72– G872, Revision 1, dated July 2, 2012, RR issued NMSB RB.211–72–H311, dated March 8, 2013, to require re-inspection of blades identified by serial number (S/ N). The accomplishment instructions and compliance period for NMSB RB.211–72–H311, dated March 8, 2013, are identical to those of NMSB RB.211– 72–G872, Revision 2, dated March 8, 2013. Blades inspected to NMSB RB.211–72–H311, dated March 8, 2013, do not then need inspection to NMSB RB.211–72–G872, Revision 2, dated March 8, 2013.

We partially agree. We agree that RR updated its service information. We do not agree that the Relevant Service Information paragraph be changed, because that paragraph only exists in the proposed AD (78 FR 6749, January 31, 2013). We did not change the AD.
Request To Change AD Requirements
Statement

RR requested that we replace the requirements statement, of inspections specific to C–scan, with a statement requiring a one-time ultrasonic inspection of LP compressor blades (without being specific to C–scan).

We agree. We changed the AD Summary to state that the AD requires a one-time ultrasonic inspection of LP compressor blades that had accumulated more than 2,500 FC since

new. Request To Change Compliance Time

RR requested that the compliance time be changed from within 500 FC, to within 500 FC or 10 months, whichever is earlier. RR stated that this change is necessary to ensure compliance within a reasonable period of time.

We agree that a calendar end date is appropriate for AD management, and for that purpose, we agree 10 months is appropriate. We changed the AD to include the 10-month compliance end date. Request To Change Actions and Compliance

RR requested that paragraph (e) of the AD be changed to reflect the revised inspection methods issued in RR NMSB RB.211–72–G872, Revision 2, datedMarch 8, 2013, to include a reinspection requirement for certain blades provided by NMSB RB.211–72– H311, dated March 8, 2013, and to eliminate the requirement to remove the LP compressor blades. RR stated that these changes were needed because the revised inspections in their service information adds phased array ultrasonic inspection and on-wing inspection instructions. RR NMSBRB.211–72–H311 introduces a reinspection requirement for blades that were previously inspected incorrectly. The on-wing phased array ultrasonic inspection added by NMSB RB.211–72– G872, Revision 2, dated March 8, 2013, and included in NMSB RB.211–72– H311, does not require removal of the blades from the engine for inspection.

We agree. We changed paragraph (e) of this AD to state the following:

For engines with LP compressor blades that have 2,500 FC or more since new or since last inspection using RR NMSB RB.211–72–G702, dated May 23, 2011, perform an ultrasonic inspection of each compressor blade within 500 FC or within 10 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever is sooner. Use paragraphs 3.C through 3.H of RR NMSB RB.211–72–G872, Revision 2, dated March 8, 2013, to do the inspection. You may do the on-wing phased array ultrasonic inspection added by NMSB RB.211–72–G872, and included in NMSB RB.211–72–H311, without removing the blades from the engine for the inspection.

We added a Credit for Previous Actions paragraph (g) of this AD, which states that you may take credit for the ultrasonic C–scan inspection of each LP compressor blade if you performed the inspection before the effective date of this AD using RR NMSB RB.211–72– G872, dated April 3, 2012, or Revision 1, dated July 2, 2012.
Request To Change Actions and Compliance

RR requested that the Actions and Compliance paragraph be changed from ‘‘. . . do not install on an engine any LP compressor blade . . .’’ to ‘‘ . . . do not install on an engine any replacement blade . . .’’. RR stated that the purpose of this change was to avoid confusion in the case that the blades are removed forroutine maintenance such as relubrication of the blade root.

We partially agree. We agree that blades removed for routine on-wing


### 37705 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 121 / Monday, June 24, 2013 / Rules and Regulations

maintenance such as the re-lubrication of the blade roots should not be subject to the installation prohibition if they are within the compliance period interval. We do not agree with the use of the word ‘‘replacement’’ as it is ambiguous. We changed the Installation Prohibition paragraph (f) of this AD to read: ‘‘After the effective date of this AD, do not install, on any engine, any LP compressor blade that has 2,500 FC or more since new or since last inspection using RR NMSB RB.211–72–G702, dated May 23, 2011, unless the LP compressor blade has passed the ultrasonic inspection required in paragraphs (e)(1) or (e)(2) of this AD. LP compressorblades that are removed for routine onwing maintenance such as blade root relubrication that will subsequently be reassembled into the engine are not subject to this Installation Prohibition.’’

Conclusion

We reviewed the available data, including the comments received, and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD with the changes described previously. We determined that these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of the
AD.
Costs of Compliance

We estimate that this AD will affect 56 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it will take about 38 hours per engine to comply with this AD. The average labor rate is $85 per hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the AD on U.S. operators to be $180,880.
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 to the extent that it justifies making a regulatory distinction, 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.

We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

**16 CFR Parts 1216 and 1223**

**Safety Standards for Infant Walkers and Infant Swings** 

**AGENCY :**  Consumer Product Safety
Commission.

**ACTION :**  Direct final rule.

**SUMMARY :**  In accordance with section 104(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), also known as the Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) has published consumer product safety standards for numerous durable infant or toddler products, including infant walkers and infant swings. These standards incorporated by reference the ASTM voluntary standards associated with those products, with some modifications. In August 2011, Congress enacted legislation which sets forth a process for updating standards that the Commission has issued under the authority of the CPSIA. In accordance with that process, the CPSC is publishing this direct final rule, revising the CPSC’s standards for infant walkers and infant swings, to incorporate by reference more recent versions of the applicable ASTM standards.

**DATES :**  The rule is effective on October 7, 2013, unless we receive significant adverse comment by July 24, 2013. If we receive timely significant adverse comments, we will publish notification in the Federal Register, withdrawing this direct final rule before its effective date. The incorporation by reference of the publications listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of October 7, 2013.

**ADDRESSES :**  You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CPSC–2013– 0025, by any of the following methods:

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  A. Background

The Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act. The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA, Pub. L. 110–314) was enacted on August 14, 2008. Section 104(b) of the CPSIA, also known as the Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act, requires the Commission to promulgate consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. The law requires that these standards are to be ‘‘substantially the same as’’ applicable voluntary standards or more stringent than the voluntary standards if the Commission concludes that more stringent requirements would further reduce the risk of injury associated with the product. Under the statute, the term ‘‘durable infant or toddler product’’ explicitly includes infant walkers and infant swings. In accordance with section 104(b), the Commission has published safety standards for these products that incorporate by reference the relevant ASTM standards, with certain modifications that make the voluntary standard more stringent.

Public Law 112–28. On August 12, 2011, Congress enacted P.L. 112–28, amending and revising several provisions of the CPSIA, including the Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act. The revised provision sets forth a process for updating CPSC’s
