Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 19 / Monday, January 29, 1996 / Proposed Rules 2731

modification also involves replacement

of the high profile clamp on the flap

drive pneumatic duct with a low profile

clamp, and removal of the anchor

clamp, if installed. Accomplishment of

this modification will eliminate chafing

of the fuel line in the strut of the

number 1 and 4 engines.

Since an unsafe condition has been

identified that is likely to exist or

develop on other products of this same

type design, the proposed AD would

supersede AD 91–05–19 to require

modification of the upper gap area of

the strut of the number 1 and 4 engines.

The actions would be required to be

accomplished in accordance with the

service bulletin described previously.

There are approximately 363 Boeing

Model 747–200, –300, –400 series

airplanes equipped with General

Electric Model CF6–80C2 PMC and

CF6–80C2 FADEC engines, and Pratt &

Whitney Model PW4000 engines of the

affected design in the worldwide fleet.

The FAA estimates that 39 airplanes of

U.S. registry would be affected by this

proposed AD.

The actions that are proposed in this

AD action would take approximately 6

work hours per airplane to accomplish,

at an average labor rate of $60 per work

hour. Required parts would be supplied

by the manufacturer at no cost to the

operators. Based on these figures, the

cost impact on U.S. operators of the

proposed requirements of this AD is

estimated to be $14,040, or $360 per

airplane.

The cost impact figures discussed

above are based on assumptions that no

operator has yet accomplished any of

the current or proposed requirements of

this AD action, and that no operator

would accomplish those actions in the

future if this AD were not adopted.

The regulations proposed herein

would not have substantial direct effects

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. Therefore,

in accordance with Executive Order

12612, it is determined that this

proposal would not have sufficient

federalism implications to warrant the

preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

For the reasons discussed above, I

certify that this 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) if

promulgated, 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. A copy of the draft

regulatory evaluation prepared for this

action is contained in the Rules Docket.

A copy of it may be obtained by

The Proposed Amendment

Accordingly, pursuant to the

authority delegated to me by the

Administrator, the Federal Aviation

Administration proposes to amend part

39 of the Federal Aviation Regulations

(14 CFR part 39) as follows:

PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS

DIRECTIVES

1. The authority citation for part 39

continues to read as follows:

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g) 40113, 44701.

§ 39.13 [Amended]

2. Section 39.13 is amended by

removing amendment 39–6918 (56 FR

8705, March 1, 1991), and by adding a

new airworthiness directive (AD), to

read as follows:

Boeing: Docket 95–NM–162–AD. Supersedes

AD 91–05–19, Amendment 39–6918.

Applicability: Model 747–200, –300, and

–400 series airplanes having line positions

679 through 1041 inclusive; equipped with

General Electric Model CF6–80C2 PMC and

CF6–80C2 FADEC, and Pratt & Whitney

Model PW4000 engines; certificated in any

category.

Note 1: This AD applies to each airplane

identified in the preceding applicability

provision, regardless of whether it has been

otherwise modified, altered, or repaired in

the area subject to the requirements of this

AD. For airplanes that have been modified,

altered, or repaired so that the performance

of the requirements of this AD is affected, the

owner/operator must use the authority

provided in paragraph (b) of this AD to

request approval from the FAA. This

approval may address either no action, if the

current configuration eliminates the unsafe

condition; or different actions necessary to

address the unsafe condition described in

this AD. Such a request should include an

assessment of the effect of the changed

configuration on the unsafe condition

addressed by this AD. In no case does the

presence of any modification, alteration, or

repair remove any airplane from the

applicability of this AD.

Compliance: Required as indicated, unless

accomplished previously.

To prevent chafing of the fuel line in the

strut of the number 1 and 4 engines, which

could result in rupture of the fuel line and

subsequent in-flight engine fire, accomplish

the following:

(a) Within 6 months after the effective date

of this AD, modify the upper gap area of the

strut of the number 1 and 4 engines, in

accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin

747–36A2097, Revision 3, dated September

28, 1995.

(b) An alternative method of compliance or

adjustment of the compliance time that

provides an acceptable level of safety may be

used if approved by the Manager, Seattle

Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA,

Transport Airplane Directorate. Operators

shall submit their requests through an

appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance

Inspector, who may add comments and then

send it to the Manager, Seattle ACO.

Note 2: Information concerning the

existence of approved alternative methods of

compliance with this AD, if any, may be

obtained from the Seattle ACO.

(c) Special flight permits may be issued in

accordance with sections 21.197 and 21.199

of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR

21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to

a location where the requirements of this AD

can be accomplished.

The Proposal

The FAA is considering an

amendment to part 71 of the Federal

Aviation Regulations (14 CFR part 71) to

amend Class D and Class E airspace at

Hailey, Idaho, to accommodate a new

GPS SIAP at Friedman Memorial

Airport. The area would be depicted on

aeronautical charts for pilot reference.

The coordinates for this airspace docket

are based on North American Datum 83.

Class D airspace areas extending

upward from the surface of the earth,

and Class E airspace areas extending

upward from 700 feet or more above the

surface of the earth are published in

paragraph 5000 and paragraph 6005,

respectively, of FAA Order 7400.9C

dated August 17, 1995, and effective

September 16, 1995, which is

incorporated by reference in 14 CFR

71.1. The Class D and Class E airspace

designations listed in this document

would be published subsequently in the

Order.

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. It,

therefore, (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); 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 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.
