ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

General Electric Company (GE) CT7–8A 

and CT7–9B model turboshaft engines. 

This AD was prompted by reports from 

the manufacturer that the high-pressure 

compressor (HPC) impeller installed on 

these engines may have suffered from 

material degradation during the 

manufacturing process. This AD 

requires removal of the affected HPC 

impellers. We are issuing this AD to 

address the unsafe condition on these 

products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to certain GE CT7–8A and CT7– 

9B model turboshaft engines. The 

NPRM published in the Federal 

Register on June 16, 2017 (82 FR 27634). 

The NPRM was prompted by reports 

from the manufacturer that the HPC 

impeller installed on these engines may 

have suffered from material degradation 

during the manufacturing process. The 

NPRM proposed to require removal of 

the affected HPC impellers. We are 

issuing this AD to prevent failure of the 

HPC impeller, uncontained HPC 

impeller release, damage to the engine, 

and damage to the airplane/helicopter. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this final rule. 

We received no comments on the NPRM 

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 this 

final rule as proposed. 

Related Service Information 

We reviewed GE Service Bulletin (SB) 

CT7–TP S/B 72–0524, dated June 16, 

2016. The SB describes procedures for 

replacing the affected HPC impellers. 

Costs of Compliance 

We estimate that this AD affects 1 

engine installed on a helicopter 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 

Replace HPC impeller .................................... 0 work-hours × $85 per hour = $0 ................. $70,000 $70,000 $70,000 

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. 

This AD is issued in accordance with 

authority delegated by the Executive 

Director, Aircraft Certification Service, 

as authorized by FAA Order 8000.51C. 

In accordance with that order, issuance 

of ADs is normally a function of the 

Compliance and Airworthiness 

Division, but during this transition 

period, the Executive Director has 

delegated the authority to issue ADs 

applicable to engines, propellers, and 

appliances to the Manager, Engine and 

Propeller Standards Branch, Policy and 

Innovation Division. 

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 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.

material degradation during the 

manufacturing process. We are issuing this 

AD to prevent failure of the HPC impeller. 

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 183 / Friday, September 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations 44301 

This unsafe condition, if not corrected, could 

result in failure of the HPC impeller, 

uncontained HPC impeller release, damage to 

the engine, and damage to the airplane/ 

helicopter. 

(f) Compliance 

Comply with this AD within the 

compliance times specified, unless already 

done. 

(1) For CT7–9B engines, remove the 

affected HPC impeller from service at the 

next engine shop visit after the effective date 

of this AD, or prior to accumulating 12,000 

cycles since new, whichever is earlier.

(g) Definition 

For the purpose of this AD, an ‘‘engine 

shop visit’’ is the induction of an engine into

Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new 

airworthiness directive (AD) for certain 

The Boeing Company Model 757–200, 

–200PF, and –200CB series airplanes. 

This AD was prompted by an analysis 

of the cam support assemblies of the 

main cargo door (MCD) that indicated 

that the existing maintenance program 

for the cam support assemblies is not 

adequate to reliably detect cracks before 

two adjacent cam support assemblies 

could fail. This AD requires an 

inspection to determine part numbers, 

repetitive inspections to detect cracking 

of affected cam support assemblies of 

the MCD, and replacement if necessary. 

We are issuing this AD to address the 

unsafe condition on these products. 

DATES: This AD is effective October 27, 

2017. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of October 27, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion 

We issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 by adding an AD that would 

apply to all The Boeing Company Model 

757–200, –200PF, and –200CB series 

airplanes. The NPRM published in the 

Federal Register on October 4, 2016 (81 

FR 68371) (‘‘the NPRM’’). The NPRM 

was prompted by an analysis of the cam 

support assemblies of the MCD that 

indicated that the existing maintenance 

program for the cam support assemblies 

is not adequate to reliably detect cracks 

before two adjacent cam support 

assemblies could fail. The NPRM 

proposed to require an inspection to 

determine part numbers, repetitive 

inspections to detect cracking of 

affected cam support assemblies of the 

MCD, and replacement if necessary. We 

are issuing this AD to detect and correct 

cracking of the cam support assemblies 

of the MCD, which could result in 

reduced structural integrity of the MCD 

and consequent rapid decompression of 

the airplane. 

Comments 

We gave the public the opportunity to 

participate in developing this final rule. 

The following presents the comments 

received on the NPRM and the FAA’s 

response to each comment. 

Requests To Revise Applicability 

Boeing, Delta Air Lines (DAL), 

European Air Transport Leipzig GmbH 

(EAT), DHL Express (DHL), FedEx 

Express (FedEx), and United Airlines 

(UAL) requested that we revise the 

proposed AD applicability. DAL and 

UAL requested that airplanes that do 

not have a MCD be excluded from the 

AD applicability. 

Three of these commenters requested 

that the actions of the service 

information be applicable only to
