Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 191 / Tuesday, October 4, 2005 / Proposed Rules 57805 

airplanes that are type-certificated for 

operation in the United States under the 

provisions of section 21.29 of the 

Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 

21.29) and the applicable bilateral 

airworthiness agreement. In keeping 

with this bilateral airworthiness 

agreement, the DGAC kept us informed 

of the situation described above. We 

have examined the DGAC’s findings, 

reviewed all available information, and 

determined that AD action is necessary 

for products of this type design that are 

certificated for operation in the United 

States. For this reason, we are proposing 

this AD, which would require installing 

two protective fairings on each affected 

cabin attendant seat and replacing the 

existing identification placard with a 

new one. The proposed AD would 

require you to use the service 

information described previously to 

perform these actions. 

Costs of Compliance 

There are about 5,584 Sicma Aero 

Seat (formerly Farner) cabin attendant 

seats, series 150 type FN and 151 type 

WN of the affected design installed on 

698 airplanes of U.S. registry. We 

estimate that it would take about 3 work 

hours per airplane to perform the 

proposed actions, and that the average 

labor rate is $65 per work hour. Sicma 

has advised us that they will supply the 

modification kits at no cost. Based on 

the labor rate to install the kits, the total 

cost of the proposed AD to U.S. 

operators will be $138,110. 

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 regulation: 

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 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

We prepared a regulatory evaluation 

of the estimated costs to comply with 

this proposed AD. See the ADDRESSES

section for a location to examine the 

regulatory evaluation.

issuing this AD to prevent injury resulting 

from contact with the bottom folding 

mechanism. 

Compliance 

(e) You are responsible for having the 

actions required by this AD performed within 

the compliance times specified unless the 

actions have already been done. 

Installing Protective Fairings 

(f) Within 90 days after the effective date

Certification Office, has the authority to 

approve alternative methods of compliance 

for this AD if requested using the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. 

Related Information 

(i) DGAC airworthiness directive 1999–004

History 

The segment of J–158 between the 

Malad City VOR/DME and the Muddy 

Mountain VORTAC was found to be 

unusable for navigation and was taken 

out of service indefinitely. The FAA has 

issued a Flight Data Center Notices to 

Airmen (NOTAM) advising users of this 

problem. To provide a means of 

navigating between the Malad City, ID, 

VOR/DME and Muddy Mountain, WY, 

VORTAC, the FAA is issuing the 

following proposal. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(14 CFR) part 71 to revise a segment of 

J–158. The proposed amendment would 

insert a segment extending from Malad 

City, ID, VOR/DME to Big Piney, WY, 

VOR/DME to Muddy Mountain, WY, 

VORTAC. This amendment would 

restore the use of J–158 between Malad 

City and Muddy Mountain. 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. 

Therefore, this proposed regulation: (1) 

Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not 

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of 

Transportation (DOT) Regulatory 

Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; 

February 26, 1979); and (3) does not 

warrant preparation of a regulatory 

evaluation as the anticipated impact is 

so minimal. Since this is a routine 

matter that will only affect air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified that this proposed rule, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
