Airworthiness Directives; De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited 
(Type Certificate Previously Held by Bombardier, Inc.) Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for 
certain De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited Model DHC-8-400 series 
airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of wear on fuel couplings, 
bonding springs, and sleeves as well as fuel tube end ferrules and fuel 
component end ferrules. This AD requires repetitive inspections of 
certain parts for discrepancies that meet specified criteria, and 
replacement as necessary; repetitive inspections of certain parts for 
damage and wear, and rework of parts; and electrical bonding checks of 
certain couplings. This AD also requires revising the existing 
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or 
more restrictive airworthiness limitations. For certain airplanes, this 
AD allows a modification that would terminate the repetitive 
inspections. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition 
on these products.

DATES: This AD is effective May 4, 2020.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by 
reference of certain publications listed in this AD as of May 4, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation 
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian AD CF-2017-04R2, dated 
September 25, 2018 (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing 
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe 
condition for certain De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited Model 
DHC-8-400 series airplanes. You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket 
on the internet at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for and 
locating Docket No. FAA-2019-0726.
    The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain De Havilland 
Aircraft of Canada Limited Model DHC-8-400 series airplanes. The NPRM 
published in the Federal Register on October 30, 2019 (84 FR 58066). 
The NPRM was prompted by reports of wear on fuel couplings, bonding 
springs, and sleeves as well as fuel tube end ferrules and fuel 
component end ferrules. The NPRM proposed to require repetitive 
inspections of certain parts for discrepancies that meet specified 
criteria, and replacement as necessary; repetitive inspections of 
certain parts for damage and wear, and rework of parts; and electrical 
bonding checks of certain couplings. The NPRM also proposed to require 
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, 
to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. For 
certain airplanes, the NPRM proposed to allow a modification that would 
terminate the repetitive inspections. The FAA is issuing this AD to 
address wear on fuel couplings, bonding springs, and sleeves as well as 
fuel tube end ferrules and fuel component end ferrules, which could 
reduce the integrity of the electrical bonding paths through the fuel 
line and components, and ultimately lead to fuel tank ignition in the 
event of a lightning strike. See the MCAI for additional background 
information.

Comments

    The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in 
developing this final rule. The following presents the comment received 
on the NPRM and the FAA's response to the comment.

Request To Refer to Different Temporary Revisions (TRs)

    Horizon Air requested that paragraph (k) of the proposed AD be 
revised to refer to TR ALI-0192 and TR ALI-0193. The commenter 
suggested that the proposed AD contains typographical errors in 
referring to TR ALI-00AS and TR ALI-00AT.
    The FAA agrees to clarify. Paragraph (k) of the proposed AD 
requires incorporating ``the information specified in Q400 Dash 8 
(Bombardier) Temporary Revision ALI-00AS, dated April 24, 2018; and 
Q400 Dash 8 (Bombardier) Temporary Revision ALI-00AT, dated April 24, 
2018.'' TCCA notified the FAA that TR ALI-00AS and TR ALI-00AT are 
temporary

[[Page 17474]]

placeholder identifiers for TR ALI-0192 and TR ALI-0193. These 
temporary placeholder identifiers are used until the finalized TRs are 
provided new numerical identifiers. The FAA has confirmed that the 
information specified in these TRs is the same as the information 
specified in the TRs mentioned by the commenter. For these reasons, 
this AD has been revised to specify TR ALI-0192 and TR ALI-0193.

Explanation of Change to Introductory Text to Paragraph (h) of This AD

    We have revised the introductory text to paragraph (h) of this AD 
to clarify that the actions apply to the same airplanes as those 
identified in the introductory text to paragraph (g) of this AD.

Conclusion

    The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment 
received, and determined that air safety and the public interest 
require adopting this final rule with the changes described previously 
and minor editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these minor 
changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM.
    The FAA also determined that these changes will not increase the 
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this final 
rule.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Bombardier has issued Service Bulletin 84-28-20, Revision D, dated 
November 23, 2018. This service information describes procedures for 
repetitive detailed inspections of the clamshell coupling bonding 
wires, fuel couplings, and associated sleeves for discrepancies (wear 
and damage, including discoloration, worn coating, scuffing and 
grooves) that meet specified criteria, and replacement. This service 
information also describes procedures for repetitive detailed 
inspections for damage and wear of the fuel tube end ferrules, fuel 
component end ferrules, and ferrule O-ring flanges, and rework of 
parts.
    Bombardier has also issued Service Bulletin 84-28-21, Revision C, 
dated July 13, 2018. This service information describes procedures for 
a detailed inspection for damage and wear of the fuel tube end 
ferrules, fuel component end ferrules, and ferrule O-ring flanges; 
rework (repair, replacement, or blending, as applicable) of parts; and 
a retrofit (structural rework) of the fuel couplings, isolators, and 
structural provisions.
    Bombardier has also issued Service Bulletin 84-28-26, Revision A, 
dated November 29, 2018. This service information describes procedures 
for electrical bonding checks of all threaded couplings on the inboard 
vent lines in the left and right wings.
    Bombardier has also issued Q400 Dash 8 (Bombardier) Temporary 
Revision ALI-0192, dated April 24, 2018; and Q400 Dash 8 (Bombardier) 
Temporary Revision ALI-0193, dated April 24, 2018. This service 
information describes airworthiness limitations for fuel tank systems. 
These documents are distinct since they describe different 
airworthiness limitations.
    This service information is reasonably available because the 
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of 
business or by the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.

Costs of Compliance

    The FAA estimates that this AD affects 52 airplanes of U.S. 
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                     Estimated Costs for Required Actions *
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                    Cost per       Cost on U.S.
                          Labor cost                              Parts cost        product         operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
268 work-hours x $85 per hour = $22,780......................              $0          $22,780       $1,184,560
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Table does not include estimated costs for revising the maintenance or inspection program.

    The FAA has determined that revising the maintenance or inspection 
program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator, although this 
number may vary from operator to operator. In the past, the FAA has 
estimated that this action takes 1 work-hour per airplane. Since 
operators incorporate maintenance or inspection program changes for 
their affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined that a per-operator 
estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane estimate. Therefore, the 
FAA estimates the total cost per operator to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x 
$85 per work-hour).

                                      Estimated Costs for Optional Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                                     Cost per
                                  Labor cost                                       Parts cost        product
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
525 work-hours x $85 per hour = $44,625.......................................         $20,906          $65,531
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of any 
required or optional actions. The FAA has no way of determining the 
number of aircraft that might need these on-condition actions:

                                     Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                                     Cost per
                                  Labor cost                                       Parts cost        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.
    The FAA is 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:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive 
Order 12866,
    (2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, 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.
