NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    This rulemaking establishes two special local regulations for two
regattas and three safety zones for two fireworks displays and one swim
event. Each event and its corresponding regulatory history is discussed
below.
    The Aquapalooza is a recurring marine event but with no regulatory
history.
    The Connecticut River Raft Race is also a recurring marine event
but with a regulatory history. Specifically, the Coast Guard
established a special local regulation in 2012 for this event via a
final rule entitled, ``Safety Zones & Special local Regulations;
Recurring Marine Events in Captain of the Port Long Island Sound
Zone.'' This rulemaking was published on May 24, 2013 in the Federal
Register (78 FR 31402). In 2013, the special local regulation for the
Connecticut River Raft Race was modified by a temporary final rule
issued by the Coast Guard entitled, ``Special Local Regulations and
Safety Zones; Marine Events in Captain of the Port Long Island Sound
Zone.'' This rulemaking was published on July 10, 2013 in the Federal
Register (78 FR 41300).
    The Sebonack Golf Club Fireworks Display is a new event with no
regulatory history. The Sebonack Golf Club has helped sponsor a similar
recurring event that was held in the same location on July 6, 2013 and
known as National Golf Links Fireworks. A safety zone was established
in 2012 for the National Golf Links Fireworks event via a final rule
entitled, ``Safety Zones & Special local Regulations; Recurring Marine
Events in Captain of the Port Long Island Sound Zone.'' This rulemaking
was published on May 24, 2013 in the Federal Register (78 FR 31402).
    Island Beach Two Mile Swim is a recurring event with some
regulatory history. Specifically, the Coast Guard established a safety
zone around this event on August 3, 2013 via a temporary final rule not
published in the Federal Register entitled, ``Safety Zone, Island Beach
Two Mile Swim, Captain Harbor, Greenwich, CT.''
    The Bohlsen Wedding Fireworks Display is a new event with no
regulatory history.
    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior
notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section
4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because doing so would be impracticable and
contrary to the public interest. There is insufficient time to publish
a NPRM and solicit comments from the public before these events take
place. Thus, waiting for a comment period to run would inhibit the
Coast Guard's ability to fulfill its mission to keep the ports and
waterways safe.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), and for the same reasons stated in the
preceding paragraph, the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30 days after publication in the
Federal Register.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this temporary rule is 33 U.S.C. 1231, 1233; 46
U.S.C. Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05-1,
6.04-1, 6.04-6 and 160.5; Pub. L. 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department
of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1 which collectively authorize
the Coast Guard to define regulatory special local regulations and
safety zones.
    As discussed in the Regulatory History and Information section, two
regattas, two fireworks displays, and one swim event will take place in
the COTP Long Island Sound Zone between July 27, 2014 and August 17,
2014. The COTP Long Island Sound has determined that the two special
local regulations and the three safety zones established by this
temporary final rule are necessary to provide for the safety of life on
navigable waterways during those events.
    Aquapalooza is a boating event open to the Public that attracts
many people and boats into Zach's Bay near Jones Beach State Park in
Wantagh, NY for an afternoon of music and entertainment. The event
sponsor expects to have 500 participants, including swimmers and
boaters, and 150 boats attend the event. The large number of boats
operating in close proximity to each other and to a swim area,
operating at dangerous speeds for the conditions and the large number
of vessels departing Zach's Bay at the conclusion of the event creates
hazardous conditions in the form of potentially dangerous boat
operations

within heavily congested waters. These conditions are especially
hazardous for any vessels attempting to navigate in the southbound
direction and against the flow of the main vessel traffic at the
conclusion of the event. The Coast Guard determined that a special
local regulation that restricts vessel speed and the flow of vessel
traffic will improve the safety of waterway users.
    The Connecticut River Raft Race involves many participants
operating human-powered and/or sail-powered vessels of their own design
and construction along a stretch of the Connecticut River near
Middletown, CT. The start and finish points of the race have been
changed to locations within the same general area but with improved
access to the Connecticut River creating safer entry and exit
conditions for event participants and support personnel. Due to the
hazards facing these participants, including the unknown and/or
untested seaworthiness of their vessels and potential limitations to
vessel navigation and/or maneuverability, the Coast Guard determined
that a special local regulation that restricts vessel speed and
operation is needed to protect participants, spectators and other
waterway users during the event.
    The Sebonack Golf Club fireworks display and the Bohlsen Wedding
fireworks display are expected to attract large numbers of spectator
vessels that will congregate around the locations of these events. The
Coast Guard determined that safety zones are required for each of these
fireworks displays to protect both spectators and participants from the
hazards created by them, including unexpected pyrotechnics detonation
and burning debris.
    Island Beach Two Mile Swim is a swim event that is held in Captain
Harbor near Greenwich, CT. Approximately 80 participants will swim an
out and back, two mile course that starts on Little Captain Island,
then continues roughly northwest for 1 mile towards Bower's Island and
then returns along the same track to Little Captain's Island. The swim
course includes waters routinely transited by commercial and
recreational boat traffic which could present hazards, including
increased risk of collision, to the event participants and safety and
support resources. The Coast Guard has determined that a safety zone is
required to protect the event participants from the hazards associated
with swim events on navigable waters, including potential threats from
commercial and recreational boat traffic. The safety zone would also
improve visibility and maneuverability for the safety vessels and
personnel supporting the event.

C. Discussion of the Final Rule

    This rule establishes two special local regulations for two
separate regattas and three safety zones for two fireworks display and
one swim event. The location of these special regulated areas and
safety zones are as follows:

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

    The special local regulation established for Aquapalooza includes
two measures to reduce the risks to waterways users of Zach's Bay
before, during, and after the event. The first measure restricts vessel
movement within the regulated area to no wake speed or 6 knots,
whichever is slower on July 27, 2014 from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. The
second measure restricts all vessel movement within the regulated area
to the outbound or northbound direction on July 27, 2014 from 3 p.m. to
5:30 p.m.
    The special local regulation established for the Connecticut River
Raft Race restricts vessel movement within the regulated area of the
Connecticut River to no wake speed or 6 knots, whichever is slower and
also stipulates that vessels shall not anchor,

block, loiter, or impede the transit of event participants or official
patrol vessels in the regulated areas unless authorized by COTP or
designated representatives. Both measures will be enforced on August 2,
2014 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
    This rule prevents vessels from entering, transiting, mooring or
anchoring within areas specifically designated as safety zones and
establishes additional vessel movement rules within areas specifically
under the jurisdiction of the special local regulations during the
periods of enforcement unless authorized by the COTP or designated
representative.
    Public notifications will be made to the local maritime community
prior to the event through the Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast
Notice to Mariners.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on these statutes and executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders.
    The Coast Guard determined that this rulemaking is not a
significant regulatory action for the following reasons: The
enforcement of these regulated areas and safety zones will be
relatively short in duration. Also, persons or vessels desiring entry
into a regulated area or a deviance from the stipulations within a
regulated area may be authorized to do so by the COTP Sector Long
Island Sound or designated representative. Additionally, persons or
vessels desiring to enter a safety zone may do so with permission from
the COTP Sector Long Island Sound or designated representative.
Furthermore, these special local regulations and safety zones are
designed in a way to limit impacts on vessel traffic, permitting
vessels to navigate in other portions of the waterways not designated
as a regulated area or as a safety zone. Finally, to increase public
awareness of these special local regulations and safety zones, the
Coast Guard will notify the public of the enforcement of this rule via
appropriate means, such as via Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast
Notice to Mariners.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as
amended, requires federal agencies to consider the potential impact of
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than
50,000. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.
    This temporary final rule will affect the following entities, some
of which may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels
intending to enter, transit, anchor or moor within a regulated area or
a safety zone during the periods of enforcement from July 27, 2014 to
August 17, 2014. However, this temporary final rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
for the same reasons discussed in the REGULATORY PLANNING AND REVIEW
section.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small
entities in understanding this rule. If the rule would affect your
small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have
questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please
contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT,
above.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

4. Collection of Information

    This rule will not call for a new collection of information under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

5. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has 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. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and determined
that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or
security of people, places or vessels.

7. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

10. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to

health or risk to safety that may disproportionately affect children.

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

12. Energy Effects

    This action is not a ``significant energy action'' under Executive
Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

13. Technical Standards

    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined
that this action is one of a category of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves the establishment of special local
regulations and safety zones. This rule is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) and (h) of Figure 2-1 of the
Commandant Instruction. An environmental analysis checklist supporting
this determination and a Categorical Exclusion Determination are
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any
comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this rule.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

[Docket No. FMCSA-2000-7363; FMCSA-2001-10578; FMCSA-2003-16241]

Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Vision

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of renewal of exemptions; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: FMCSA announces its decision to renew the exemptions from the
vision requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations for
6 individuals. FMCSA has statutory authority to exempt individuals from
the vision requirement if the exemptions granted will not compromise
safety. The Agency has concluded that granting these exemption renewals
will provide a level of safety that is equivalent to or greater than
the level of safety maintained without the exemptions for these
commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA may renew an exemption
from the vision requirements in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10), which applies to
drivers of CMVs in interstate commerce, for a two-year period if it
finds ``such exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is
equivalent to or greater than the level that would be achieved absent
such exemption.'' The procedures for requesting an exemption (including
renewals) are set out in 49 CFR part 381.

Exemption Decision

    This notice addresses 6 individuals who have requested renewal of
their exemptions in accordance with FMCSA procedures. FMCSA has
evaluated these 6 applications for renewal on their merits and decided
to extend each exemption for a renewable two-year period. They are:

Martiniano L. Espinosa (FL)
James G. LaBair (MI)
Lonnie Lomax, Jr. (IL)
Eugene C. Murphy (FL)
John H. Voigts (AZ)
Daniel G. Wilson (IL)

    The exemptions are extended subject to the following conditions:
(1) That each individual has a physical examination every year (a) by
an ophthalmologist or optometrist who attests that the vision in the
better eye continues to meet the requirements in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10),
and (b) by a medical examiner who attests that the individual is
otherwise physically qualified under 49 CFR 391.41; (2) that each
individual provides a copy of the ophthalmologist's or optometrist's
report to the medical examiner at the time of the annual medical
examination; and (3) that each individual provide a copy of the annual
medical certification to the employer for retention in the driver's
qualification file and retains a copy of the certification on his/her
person while driving for presentation to a duly authorized Federal,
State, or local enforcement official. Each exemption will be valid for
two years unless rescinded earlier by FMCSA. The exemption will be
rescinded if: (1) The person fails to comply with the terms and
conditions of the exemption; (2) the exemption has resulted in a lower
level of safety than was maintained before it was granted; or (3)
continuation of the exemption would not be consistent with

the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315.

Basis for Renewing Exemptions

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(1), an exemption may be granted for no
longer than two years from its approval date and may be renewed upon
application for additional two year periods. In accordance with 49
U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, each of the 6 applicants has satisfied the
entry conditions for obtaining an exemption from the vision
requirements (65 FR 45817; 65 FR 77066; 66 FR 53826; 66 FR 66966; 67 FR
71610; 68 FR 61857; 68 FR 69434; 68 FR 75715; 70 FR 25878; 70 FR 74102;
71 FR 646; 72 FR 71993; 72 FR 71998; 74 FR 65846; 76 FR 78729). Each of
these 6 applicants has requested renewal of the exemption and has
submitted evidence showing that the vision in the better eye continues
to meet the requirement specified at 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) and that the
vision impairment is stable. In addition, a review of each record of
safety while driving with the respective vision deficiencies over the
past two years indicates each applicant continues to meet the vision
exemption requirements.
    These factors provide an adequate basis for predicting each
driver's ability to continue to drive safely in interstate commerce.
Therefore, FMCSA concludes that extending the exemption for each
renewal applicant for a period of two years is likely to achieve a
level of safety equal to that existing without the exemption.

Request for Comments

    FMCSA will review comments received at any time concerning a
particular driver's safety record and determine if the continuation of
the exemption is consistent with the requirements at 49 U.S.C. 31136(e)
and 31315. However, FMCSA requests that interested parties with
specific data concerning the safety records of these drivers submit
comments by December 12, 2013.
    FMCSA believes that the requirements for a renewal of an exemption
under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315 can be satisfied by initially
granting the renewal and then requesting and evaluating, if needed,
subsequent comments submitted by interested parties. As indicated
above, the Agency previously published notices of final disposition
announcing its decision to exempt these 6 individuals from the vision
requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10). The final decision to grant an
exemption to each of these individuals was made on the merits of each
case and made only after careful consideration of the comments received
to its notices of applications. The notices of applications stated in
detail the qualifications, experience, and medical condition of each
applicant for an exemption from the vision requirements. That
information is available by consulting the above cited Federal Register
publications.
    Interested parties or organizations possessing information that
would otherwise show that any, or all, of these drivers are not
currently achieving the statutory level of safety should immediately
notify FMCSA. The Agency will evaluate any adverse evidence submitted
and, if safety is being compromised or if continuation of the exemption
would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C.
31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA will take immediate steps to revoke the
exemption of a driver.

    j. Description of Proceeding: Ahlstrom-Munksj[ouml] Specialty
Solutions Acquisition LLC and Domtar Paper Company, LLC, on February 4,
2019, Consolidated Water Power Company, on February 11, 2019, and
Domtar Wisconsin Corporation, on February 22, 2019, filed requests to
extend the license terms for their ten respective projects located in
the central sub-basin of the Wisconsin River. The projects include: (1)
The DuBay (P-1953), Stevens Point (P-2110), Biron (P-2192), Wisconsin
Rapids (P-2256), and Whiting (P-2590) projects licensed to the
Consolidated Water Power Company; (2) the Mosinee Project No. 2207
licensed to Ahlstrom-Munksj[ouml] Specialty Solutions Acquisition LLC;
(3) the Rothschild Project No. 2212 licensed to Domtar Paper Company,
LLC; and (4) the Centralia (P-2292), Port Edwards (P-2291), and Nekoosa
(P-2255) projects licensed to Domtar Wisconsin Corporation.
    Currently, the 30-year licenses for the DuBay, Wisconsin Rapids,
Whiting,

Mosinee, Rothschild, Centralia, Port Edwards, and Nekoosa Projects
expire on June 30, 2026, the 30-year licenses for the Biron and Stevens
Point Projects expire on June 30, 2033, and the 30-year license for the
Mosinee Project expires on March 31, 2035. The licensees seek
Commission approval to extend the license terms for the above ten
projects so they all expire on June 30, 2038. The licensees say the
extensions would assist with the comprehensive study and analysis of
the projects' cumulative environmental impact and would reduce
stakeholder burden by integrating the relicensing consultation process.
Additionally, the licensees say that aligning the license expiration
dates would eliminate redundancies during relicensing for all involved
parties as the projects in the central sub-basin have similar
vegetation, land cover, hydrology, and resource management concerns.
    The licensees' requests are part of a broader proposal to align the
license expiration dates for 20 projects on the Wisconsin River into
three groupings based on each project's location to facilitate
comprehensive study and analysis and coordinate relicensing as
discussed above. This public notice covers ten projects in the central
sub-basin of the Wisconsin River. The Commission is issuing two other
public notices--one for eight projects in the northern sub-basin of the
Wisconsin River that would align these expiration dates so they expire
on June 30, 2033 and another public notice for two projects in the
southern sub-basin of the Wisconsin River that would align the license
expiration dates to expire on June 30, 2041.
    k. This notice is available for review and reproduction at the
Commission in the Public Reference Room, Room 2A, 888 First Street NE,
Washington, DC 20426. The filing may also be viewed on the Commission's
website at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/elibrary.asp. Enter the
Docket number (for example, P-1953-088) excluding the last three digits
in the docket number field to access the notice. You may also register
online at http://www.ferc.gov/docs-filing/esubscription.asp to be
notified via email of new filings and issuances related to this or
other pending projects. For assistance, call toll-free 1-866-208-3676
or email [email protected]. For TTY, call<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    l. Individuals desiring to be included on the Commission's mailing
list should so indicate by writing to the Secretary of the Commission.
    m. Comments, Protests, or Motions to Intervene: Anyone may submit
comments, a protest, or a motion to intervene in accordance with the
requirements of Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211,
and .214. In determining the appropriate action to take, the Commission
will consider all protests or other comments filed, but only those who
file a motion to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules
may become a party to the proceeding. Any comments, protests, or
motions to intervene must be received on or before the specified
comment date for the particular application.
    n. Filing and Service of Responsive Documents: Any filing must (1)
bear in all capital letters the title COMMENTS, PROTEST, or MOTION TO
INTERVENE as applicable; (2) set forth in the heading the name of the
applicant(s) and the project number(s) of the application to which the
filing responds; (3) furnish the name, address, and telephone number of
the person protesting or intervening; and (4) otherwise comply with the
requirements of 18 CFR 385.2001 through 385.2005. All comments, motions
to intervene, or protests must set forth their evidentiary basis and
otherwise comply with the requirements of 18 CFR 4.34(b). All comments,
motions to intervene, or protests should relate to the requests to
extend the license terms. Agencies may obtain copies of the
applications directly from the applicants. A copy of any protest or
motion to intervene must be served upon each representative of the
applicant specified in the particular application. If an intervener
files comments or documents with the Commission relating to the merits
of an issue that may affect the responsibilities of a particular
resource agency, they must also serve a copy of the document on that
resource agency. A copy of all other filings in reference to these
applications must be accompanied by proof of service on all persons
listed in the service list prepared by the Commission in this
proceeding, in accordance with 18 CFR 4.34(b) and 385.2010.

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-23-
10, which applies to all Airbus Model A318 series airplanes; Model A319
series airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233
airplanes; and Model A321-111, -112, -131, -211, -212, -213, -231, and
-232 airplanes. AD 2012-23-10 requires modifying the affected slide
rafts. Since we issued AD 2012-23-10, we received a report that Air
Cruisers developed a modification of the slide and slide/raft, which is
part of the escape slide pack assembly, to improve its deployment. This
proposed AD would retain the requirements of AD 2012-23-10. This
proposed AD would also require replacing each escape slide pack
assembly having a certain part number with a new escape slide pack
assembly. We are proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by August 7, 2017.

ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR
11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods:

Discussion

    On November 13, 2012, we issued AD 2012-23-10, Amendment 39-17266
(77 FR 70369, November 26, 2012) (``AD 2012-23-10''). AD 2012-23-10
requires actions intended to correct an unsafe condition for all Airbus
Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series airplanes.
    Since we issued AD 2012-23-10, we have determined that it may no
longer address the unsafe condition, and that it is necessary to
replace each escape slide pack assembly having a certain part number
with a new escape slide pack assembly having a certain part number, or
modify the escape slide pack.
    The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2016-0043, dated March 4, 2016 (referred to after this as the Mandatory
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an
unsafe condition for all Airbus Model A318, A319, A320, and A321 series
airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Two occurrences were reported on Airbus A320 family aeroplanes
where the escape slide raft inflation system did not deploy when
activated. This was due to the rotation of the cable guide in a
direction, which resulted in jamming of the inflation control cable.
Additionally, one case was reported where the system did not deploy
properly due to a cracked inflation hose fitting. Investigation
conducted by Air Cruisers

Company [Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems], the slide raft
manufacturer, showed that the hose fitting could be subject to a
bending moment, if improperly packed. Consequently, the hose fitting
could separate from the reservoir and the inflation of the slide
raft would be impaired.
    This condition, if not corrected, could delay the evacuation
from the aeroplane in case of emergency, possibly resulting in
injury to the occupants.
    To address this potential unsafe condition, DGAC France issued
AD F-2004-072 [which correlates with FAA AD 2004-26-07, Amendment
39-13919 (70 FR 1176, January 6, 2005)], to introduce an inflation
hose retainer preventing an incomplete inflation of emergency escape
slides, which could delay passenger evacuation, and EASA issued AD
2011-0160 (later revised twice) to require modification of the
affected slide rafts or replacement thereof with modified units.
    Since EASA AD 2011-0160R2 [which correlates with FAA AD 2012-23-
10 and issued as a stand-alone, non-superseding AD] was issued, Air
Cruisers [Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems] developed a modification
of the slide and slide/raft, part of the escape slide pack
assemblies, to improve its deployment. Modified slides and slide/
rafts are identified by a different Part Number (P/N); consequently,
also the escape slide pack assemblies are identified by a different
P/N.
    For the reasons described above, this [EASA] AD retains the
requirements of DGAC France AD F-2004-072 (EASA approval 2004-5335)
and EASA AD 2011-0160R2, which are superseded, and requires
installation of modified escape slide pack assemblies.
    Appendix 1 of this [EASA] AD provides a comprehensive list of
escape slide pack assemblies P/N that, at the issue date of the
[EASA] AD, are not approved for further installation on any
aeroplane.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Airbus has issued the following service information, which
describes procedures for replacing certain escape slide pack
assemblies. These documents are distinct since they apply to different
airplane models in different configurations.
     Service Bulletin A320-25-1B81, Revision 01, dated December
10, 2015.
     Service Bulletin A320-25-1B82, Revision 01, dated December
10, 2015.
     Service Bulletin A320-25-1B83, Revision 01, dated December
10, 2015.
     Service Bulletin A320-25-1B84, Revision 01, dated December
10, 2015.
    Zodiac Aerospace has issued Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems Service
Bulletin S.B. A320 004-25-96, Revision 1, dated September 18, 2015; and
Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems Service Bulletin S.B. A320 004-25-97,
Revision 1, dated September 18, 2015. The service information describes
modification of the escape slide pack. These documents are distinct
since they apply to different airplane models in different
configurations.
    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.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed 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 proposing 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 these
same type designs.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 959 airplanes of U.S.
registry.
    The actions required by AD 2012-23-10, and retained in this
proposed AD take about 19 work-hours per product, at an average labor
rate of $85 per work-hour. Required parts cost about $341 per product.
Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the actions that are
required by AD 2012-23-10 is $1,956 per product.
    We also estimate that it would take about 6 work-hours per product
to comply with the basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts would cost about $0 per
product. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of this proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $489,090, or $510 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

    We 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 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);
    3. Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska; 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.

List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39

    Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.

The Proposed Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA proposes to amend 14 CFR part 39 as follows:

PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:

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

Sec.  39.13   [Amended]

0
2. The FAA amends Sec.  39.13 by removing Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2012-23-10, Amendment 39-17266 (77 FR 70369, November 26, 2012), and
adding the following new AD:

Airbus: Docket No. FAA-2017-0556; Directorate Identifier 2016-NM-
098-AD.

(a) Comments Due Date

    We must receive comments by August 7, 2017.

(b) Affected ADs

    This AD replaces AD 2012-23-10, Amendment 39-17266 (77 FR 70369,
November 26, 2012) (``AD 2012-23-10'').

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to all Airbus Model A318-111, -112, -121, and -
122 airplanes; Model A319-111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132,
and -133 airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -231, -232, and -233

system not deploying when activated due to the rotation of the cable
guide in a direction which resulted in jamming of the inflation
control cable. We are issuing this AD to prevent non-deployment of
the escape slide raft, which could result in delayed evacuation from
the airplane during an emergency and consequent injury to the
passengers.
