ACTION: Final rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an 

existing airworthiness directive (AD) 

that applies to all Bombardier Model 

CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 

440) airplanes and Model CL–600–1A11 

(CL–600), CL–600–2A12 (CL–601), and 

CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, 

and CL–604) airplanes. The existing AD 

currently requires revising the airplane 

flight manuals (AFMs) to include new 

cold weather operations limitations and 

procedures. This AD requires revising 

the AFMs to include a requirement for 

flightcrew training regarding enhanced 

take-off procedures and winter 

operations. This AD results from reports 

of uncommanded roll during take-off. 

We are issuing this AD to prevent 

possible loss of control on take-off 

resulting from even small amounts of 

frost, ice, snow, or slush on the wing 

leading edges or forward upper wing 

surfaces. 

DATES: This AD becomes effective 

October 31, 2008. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of certain publications listed in the AD 

as of October 31, 2008. 

On April 21, 2008 (73 FR 19989, April 

14, 2008), the Director of the Federal 

Register approved the incorporation by 

reference of certain publications listed 

in this AD. 

We must receive any comments on 

this AD by November 17, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

On April 2, 2008, the FAA issued AD 

2008–08–06, amendment 39–15458 (73 

FR 19989, April 14, 2008). That AD 

applies to all Bombardier Model CL– 

600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 

440) airplanes and Model CL–600–1A11 

(CL–600), CL–600–2A12 (CL–601), and 

CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, CL–601–3R, 

and CL–604) airplanes. That AD 

requires revising the airplane flight 

manuals (AFMs) to include new cold 

weather operations limitations and 


rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 201 / Thursday, October 16, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 61337 

procedures. That AD resulted from 

reports of uncommanded roll during 

take-off. The actions specified in that 

AD are intended to prevent possible loss 

of control on take-off resulting from 

even small amounts of frost, ice, snow, 

or slush on the wing leading edges or 

forward upper wing surfaces. 

Actions Since AD Was Issued 

The preamble to AD 2008–08–06 

specified that we considered the 

requirements ‘‘interim action’’ and that 

Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) 

advised that it was developing further 

actions, such as crew awareness and 

training with regard to winter 

operations to address the unsafe 

condition addressed by that AD. That 

AD explains that we might consider 

further rulemaking if those further 

actions are developed, approved, and 

available. TCCA has now advised us 

that the manufacturer has developed 

these actions, and we have determined 

that further rulemaking is indeed 

necessary; this AD follows from that 

determination. 

Relevant Service Information 

Bombardier has issued the temporary 

revisions (TRs) listed in the ‘‘Temporary 

Revisions’’ table. The temporary 

revisions describe limitations that 

include tactile inspections for ice during 

certain weather conditions, limitations 

and procedures for use of wing and 

cowl anti-ice during certain taxiing or 

take-off conditions, and take-off 

limitations to reduce high-pitch 

attitudes during rotation. The temporary 

revisions also describe a limitation, 

effective November 1, 2008, that 

requires flightcrew training regarding 

enhanced take-off procedures and 

winter operations. Accomplishing the 

actions specified in the service 

information is intended to adequately 

address the unsafe condition. TCCA 

mandated the service information and 

issued Canadian airworthiness 

directives CF–2008–15R1 and CF–2008– 

16R1, both dated August 20, 2008 

(referred to after this as ‘‘the MCAI’’), to 

ensure the continued airworthiness of 

these airplanes in Canada.

FAA’s Determination and Requirements 

of This AD 

This product has been approved by 

the aviation authority of another 

country, and is approved for operation 

in the United States. Pursuant to our 

bilateral agreement with the State of 

Design Authority, we have been notified 

of the unsafe condition described in the 

MCAI and service information 

referenced above. We are issuing this 

AD because we evaluated all pertinent 

information and determined an unsafe 

condition exists and is likely to exist or 

develop on other products of the same 

type design. 

Therefore, we are issuing this AD to 

supersede AD 2008–08–06. This new 

AD retains certain requirements of the 

existing AD. This AD also requires 

revising the AFMs to include a 

requirement for flightcrew training 

regarding enhanced take-off procedures 

and winter operations. 

Differences Between This AD and the 

Canadian Airworthiness Directives 

The Canadian airworthiness 

directives specify that operators should 

advise flightcrews of the changes 

introduced by the TRs; and review the 

‘‘Pilot’s Checklist’’ to ensure that the 

instructions regarding selection of the 

wing anti-ice system to ‘‘ON,’’ as 

specified in the AFM Limitations 

section, are incorporated. We do not 

require these actions because there is no 

method to determine compliance with 

these actions. 

Change to Existing AD 

This AD retains certain requirements 

of AD 2008–08–06; however, certain 

paragraphs have been rearranged. As a 

result, the corresponding paragraph 

identifiers have changed in this AD, as 

listed in the following table:

61338 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 201 / Thursday, October 16, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 

FAA’s Justification and Determination 

of the Effective Date 

We are rapidly approaching the ice/ 

snow season and the pilot training 

regarding enhanced take-off procedures 

and winter operations must be 

accomplished before the season begins. 

Because of our requirement to promote 

safe flight of civil aircraft and thus, the 

critical need to prevent uncommanded 

roll during take-off and the short 

compliance time involved with this 

action, this AD must be issued 

immediately. 

Because an unsafe condition exists 

that requires the immediate adoption of 

this AD, we find that notice and 

opportunity for prior public comment 

hereon are impracticable and that good 

cause exists for making this amendment 

effective in less than 30 days. 

Comments Invited 

This AD is a final rule that involves 

requirements affecting flight safety, and 

we did not provide you with notice and 

an opportunity to provide your 

comments before it becomes effective. 

However, we invite you to send any 

written data, views, or arguments about 

this AD. Send your comments to an 

address listed under the ADDRESSES

section. Include ‘‘Docket No. FAA– 

2008–1096; Directorate Identifier 2008– 

NM–158–AD’’ at the beginning of your 

comments. We specifically invite 

comments on the overall regulatory, 

economic, environmental, and energy 

aspects of this AD. We will consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may amend this AD because of 

those comments. 

We will post all comments we 

receive, without change, to http:// 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information you provide. We 

will also post a report summarizing each 

substantive verbal contact we receive 

about this AD. 

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 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 the 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. 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 AD and placed it in the AD docket. 

See the ADDRESSES section for a location 

to examine the regulatory evaluation.

Adoption of the Amendment 

■ Accordingly, under the authority 

delegated to me by the Administrator, 

the FAA amends 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. The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) amends § 39.13 

by removing amendment 39–15458 (73 

FR 19989, April 14, 2008) and adding 

the following new AD: 

2008–21–09 Bombardier, Inc. (Formerly 

Canadair): Docket No. FAA–2008–1096; 

Directorate Identifier 2008–NM–158–AD; 

Amendment 39–15693. 

Effective Date 

(a) This AD becomes effective October 31, 

2008. 

Affected ADs 

(b) This AD supersedes AD 2008–08–06. 

Applicability 

(c) This AD applies to all Bombardier 

Model CL–600–1A11 (CL–600), CL–600– 

2A12 (CL–601), CL–600–2B16 (CL–601–3A, 

CL–601–3R, & CL–604) airplanes, and Model 

CL–600–2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) 

airplanes, certificated in any category. 

Note 1: Some Model CL–600–2B16 (CL– 

604) airplanes might be referred to by a 

marketing designation as CL–605. 

Note 2: This AD requires revisions to 

certain operator maintenance documents to 

include new inspections. Compliance with 

these inspections is required by 14 CFR 

91.403(c). For airplanes that have been 

previously modified, altered, or repaired in 

the areas addressed by these inspections, the 

operator may not be able to accomplish the 

inspections described in the revisions. In this 

situation, to comply with 14 CFR 91.403(c), 

the operator must request approval for an 

alternative method of compliance according 

to paragraph (j) of this AD. The request 

should include a description of changes to 

the required inspections that will ensure the 

continued operational safety of the airplane. 

Unsafe Condition 

(d) This AD results from reports of 

uncommanded roll during take-off. We are 

issuing this AD to prevent possible loss of 

control on take-off resulting from even small 

amounts of frost, ice, snow, or slush on the 

wing leading edges or forward upper wing 

surfaces. 

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. 

Restatement of AD 2008–08–06 

Revision to Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) 

(f) Within 7 days after April 21, 2008 (the 

effective date of AD 2008–08–06), revise the 

applicable sections of the applicable AFM by 

inserting a copy of the applicable temporary 

revision (TR) listed in Table 1 of this AD. 

Thereafter, operate the airplanes per the 

limitation specified in the applicable TR, 

except as provided by paragraphs (h) and (j) 

of this AD. Doing the revision required by 

paragraph (h) of this AD terminates the 

requirements of this paragraph. 

(g) When information identical to that in a 

TR specified in paragraph (f) of this AD has 

been included in the general revisions of the 

applicable AFM, the general revisions may be 

inserted into the AFM, and the TR may be 

removed from that AFM.

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing 

Model 747–400, 747–400D, and 747– 

400F Series Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

Boeing Model 747–400, 747–400D, and 

747–400F series airplanes. This AD 

requires installing an extension tube to 

the existing pump discharge port of the 

scavenge pump on the outboard side of 

the center fuel tank in the main fuel 

tank #2. This AD results from fuel 

system reviews conducted by the 

manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to 

prevent a fire or explosion in the fuel 

tank and consequent loss of the 

airplane. 

DATES: This AD is effective November 

20, 2008. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of November 20, 2008. 

ADDRESSES: For service information 

identified in this AD, contact Boeing

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to include an airworthiness 

directive (AD) that would apply to 

certain Boeing Model 747–400, 747– 

400D, and 747–400F series airplanes. 

That NPRM was published in the 

Federal Register on June 18, 2008 (73 

FR 34663). That NPRM proposed to 

require installing an extension tube to 

the existing pump discharge port of the 

scavenge pump on the outboard side of 

the center fuel tank in the main fuel 

tank #2. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this AD. We 

considered the comments received. 

Support for the NPRM 

Boeing concurs with the contents of 

the NPRM. Air Line Pilots Association, 

International (ALPA), supports the 

intent of the NPRM. 

Request To Reduce the Compliance 

Time 

ALPA feels that the 60-month 

compliance time should be reduced to 

24 months. ALPA states that a shorter 

compliance time should be imposed 

given the number of affected aircraft and 

the time required for installation of 

tubing. 

We disagree. In developing the 

compliance time for this NPRM, we 

considered not only the safety 

implications of the identified unsafe 

condition, but the average utilization 

rate of the affected fleet, the practical 

aspects of an orderly modification of the 

fleet during regular maintenance 

periods, the availability of required 

parts, and the time necessary for the 

rulemaking process. The compliance 

time is determined to be appropriate. 

Therefore, we have not changed the AD 

in this regard. 

Conclusion 

We reviewed the relevant data, 

considered the comments received, and 

determined that air safety and the 

public interest require adopting the AD 

as proposed. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 31 

airplanes of U.S. registry. It takes about 

16 work-hours per product to comply 

with this AD. The average labor rate is 

$80 per work-hour. Required parts cost 

about $900 per product. Based on these 

figures, the cost of this AD to the U.S. 

operators is $67,580, or $2,180 per 

product. 

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:
