Federal Aviation Administration

14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2009-1021; Directorate Identifier 2009-NM-054-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier 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

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the
products listed above that would revise an existing AD. This proposed
AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and
correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes
the unsafe condition as:

    [S]everal cases of wing anti-ice piccolo duct failure reported
on CL-600-2B19 (CRJ) aircraft. Although there have been no failures
reported on Challenger aircraft, similar ducts are installed on the
* * * [other] Challenger models. Cracking of the wing anti-ice
piccolo ducts could result in air leakage, with an adverse effect on
the anti-ice air distribution pattern and a possible unannunciated
insufficient heat condition.

    The unsafe condition is anti-ice system air leakage with a possible
adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and anti-ice
capability without annunciation to the flightcrew, and consequent
reduced controllability of the airplane. The proposed AD would require
actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in
the MCAI.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by December 21,
2009.

Discussion

    On February 27, 2009, we issued AD 2009-06-05, Amendment 39-15841
(74 FR 12225, March 24, 2009). That AD required actions intended to
address an unsafe condition on the products listed above.
    Since we issued AD 2009-06-05, Bombardier submitted comments after
the publication of that AD requesting that we change paragraphs (f)(2)
and (f)(4) of AD 2009-06-05 to allow compliance within 2,000 flight
hours or 60 months after the effective date of the AD, whichever occurs
first, instead of prior to the accumulation of 2,000 total flight hours
or within 60 months after the effective date of the AD, whichever
occurs first. We agree and we have revised paragraphs (f)(2) and (f)(4)
of this NPRM accordingly. The proposed compliance time matches the
intent of Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA) AD CF-2008-18, dated
May 9, 2008, and represents the maximum interval of time allowable for
the affected airplanes to operate safely.
    Bombardier has also requests that we change Table 2 of that AD to
replace references to two temporary revisions (TRs): Canadair TR 600/
23, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11
Airplane Flight Manual (AFM); and Canadair TR 600-1/19, dated August
16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 AFM (Winglets).
These two TRs are approved by TCCA, and should be replaced in AD 2009-
06-05 with references to the following FAA-approved TRs: Canadair TR
600/22, dated August 16, 2006, to the Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-
1A11 AFM; and Canadair TR 600-1/17, dated August 16, 2006, to the
Canadair Challenger Model CL-600-1A11 AFM (Winglets). We agree and we
have revised Table 2 of this NPRM accordingly.

Relevant Service Information

    Bombardier has issued the service information listed in the
``Temporary Revisions (TRs)'' and ``Service Bulletins'' tables, below.
The actions described in this service information are intended to
correct the unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.

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 the same
type design.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI or Service Information

    We have reviewed the MCAI and related service information and, in
general, agree with their substance. But we might have found it
necessary to use different words from those in the MCAI to ensure the
AD is clear for U.S. operators and is enforceable. In making these
changes, we do not intend to differ substantively from the information
provided in the MCAI and related service information.

    We might also have proposed different actions in this AD from those
in the MCAI in order to follow FAA policies. Any such differences are
highlighted in a Note within the proposed AD.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 108 products of U.S. registry. We also estimate that
it would take about 37 work-hours per product to comply with the basic
requirements of this proposed AD. The average labor rate is $80 per
work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of the proposed
AD on U.S. operators to be $319,680, or $2,960 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); 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 proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

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

Subject

    (d) Air Transport Association (ATA) of America Code 30: Ice and
Rain Protection.

Reason

    (e) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
states:

    There have been several cases of wing anti-ice piccolo duct
failure reported on CL-600-2B19 (CRJ) aircraft. Although there have
been no failures reported on Challenger aircraft, similar ducts are
installed on the * * * [other] Challenger models.
    Upon investigation, it has been determined that ducts
manufactured since June 2000, and installed since 1 August 2000, are
susceptible to cracking due to the process used to drill the holes
in the ducts. These ducts were installed on CL-600-2B16 aircraft,
serial numbers 5469 through 5635 in production, but may also have
been installed as replacements on CL-600-1A11, CL-600-2A12 and other
CL-600-2B16 aircraft.
    Cracking of the wing anti-ice piccolo ducts could result in air
leakage, with an adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution
pattern and a possible unannunciated insufficient heat condition. As
a result, the airplane flight manual (AFM) instructions have been
revised to provide proper annunciation of an insufficient heat
condition, utilizing existing messages and indications, with
instructions, to the pilot, to leave icing conditions if sufficient
heat cannot be achieved or maintained.
    This directive mandates the amendment of the AFM procedures, in
addition to checking the part numbers and serial numbers of the
installed wing anti-ice piccolo ducts and replacing them as
necessary.

    The unsafe condition is anti-ice system air leakage with a
possible adverse effect on the anti-ice air distribution pattern and
anti-ice capability without annunciation to the flightcrew, and
consequent reduced controllability of the airplane.

Actions and Compliance

    (f) Unless already done, do the following actions.
    (1) For airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2),
(c)(3), and (c)(4) of this AD: Within 30 days after the effective
date of this AD, revise the Normal and Abnormal Procedures sections
of the applicable Canadair Challenger Airplane Flight Manual (AFM)
by inserting a copy of the applicable temporary revision (TR) listed
in Table 2 of this AD. When the information in the applicable TR is
included in the general revisions of the AFM, the general revisions
may be inserted in the AFM, as applicable, and the TR may be
removed.

     (2) For airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and
(c)(3) of this AD, and for Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-604) airplanes,
serial numbers 5301 through 5468 inclusive: Within 2,000 flight
hours or 60 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever
occurs first, review the airplane maintenance records to determine
if any anti-ice piccolo ducts or complete leading edge sections were
replaced on or after August 1, 2000.
    (3) For airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1), (c)(2), and
(c)(3) of this AD, and for Model CL-600-2B16 (CL-604) airplanes,
serial numbers 5301 through 5468 inclusive: If, during the
accomplishment of the action required by paragraph (f)(2) of this
AD, it is determined that any anti-ice piccolo duct has been
replaced on or after August 1, 2000, before further flight, inspect
to determine if any affected serial number identified in paragraph
2.C. of the applicable service bulletin listed in Table 3 of this AD
is installed. A review of airplane maintenance records is acceptable
in lieu of this inspection if the serial number of the duct can be
conclusively determined from that review. If any affected serial
number is installed, before further flight, replace the piccolo duct
with a serviceable piccolo duct that does not have a serial number
identified in paragraph 2.C. of the applicable service bulletin
listed in Table 3 of this AD. Do all actions in accordance with the
Accomplishment Instructions of the applicable service bulletin
listed in Table 3 of this AD.

    Take notice that the Commission received the following electric
reliability filings:

    Docket Numbers: RR08-4-000; RR08-4-001; RR08-4-002; RR08-4-005.

    Applicants: North American Electric Reliability Corp.
    Description: Supplemental Information to North American Electric
Reliability Corporation Compliance Filing in Response to the Order on
Violation Severity Levels Proposed by the ERO.
    Filed Date: 03/21/2011.
    Accession Number: 20110321-5138.
    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, April 05, 2011.

    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest in any of the above
proceedings must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and
385.214) on or before 5 p.m. Eastern time on the specified comment
date. It is not necessary to separately intervene again in a subdocket
related to a compliance filing if you have previously intervened in the
same docket. Protests will be considered by the Commission in
determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to
make protestants parties to the proceeding. Anyone filing a motion to
intervene or protest must serve a copy of that document on the
Applicant. In reference to filings initiating a new proceeding,
interventions or protests submitted on or before the comment deadline
need not be served on persons other than the Applicant.
    As it relates to any qualifying facility filings, the notices of
self-certification [or self-recertification] listed above, do not
institute a proceeding regarding qualifying facility status. A notice
of self-certification [or self-recertification] simply provides
notification that the entity making the filing has determined the
facility named in the notice meets the applicable criteria to be a
qualifying facility. Intervention and/or protest do not lie in dockets
that are qualifying facility self-certifications or self-
recertifications. Any person seeking to challenge such qualifying
facility status may do so by filing a motion pursuant to 18 CFR
292.207(d)(iii). Intervention and protests may be filed in response to
notices of qualifying facility dockets other than self-certifications
and self-recertifications.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper, using the FERC Online links at http://www.ferc.gov. To facilitate electronic service, persons with Internet
access who will eFile a document and/or be listed as a contact for an
intervenor must create and validate an eRegistration account using the

    Persons unable to file electronically should submit an original and
14 copies of the intervention or protest to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    The filings in the above proceedings are accessible in the
Commission's eLibrary system by clicking on the appropriate link in the
above list. They are also available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an eSubscription link

    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 2193.02, OMB Control No. 2060-0586.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on November 30, 2009.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor

    Abstract: EPA introduced ENERGY STAR, a voluntary public-private
energy efficiency partnership program, in 1992 to label energy
efficient computers. Since then, EPA and the Department of Energy (DOE)
have expanded the ENERGY STAR Program to promote energy efficiency in
over 60 product categories and in commercial and residential buildings.
Increased energy efficiency through ENERGY STAR provides cost savings
to businesses and homeowners, reduces greenhouse gas emissions from
power plants, and increases U.S. energy security and reliability.
    EPA announced ENERGY STAR for New Homes in 1995 as part of its
effort to promote energy efficient construction in the new homes
market. EPA rolled out its existing homes effort in 2000 to promote
cost-effective upgrades to the existing homes market. These two efforts
promote home envelope improvements such as the proper installation of
adequate insulation and HVAC equipment, and installation of energy
efficient windows, lights, and appliances. Since participation in the
ENERGY STAR program is voluntary, partners are not required to submit
information to EPA. Information received to date has been submitted
voluntarily to EPA and is not of a confidential nature. EPA has
developed this ICR to obtain authorization to collect information from
the public, including businesses, for the following activities:
    ENERGY STAR Partnership and Related Activities: An organization
interested in joining ENERGY STAR as a partner is asked to submit a
partnership agreement establishing its commitment to ENERGY STAR.
Partners agree to undertake efforts such as educating staff and the
public about their partnership with ENERGY STAR, developing and
implementing a plan to improve energy performance in homes, and
highlighting achievements utilizing the ENERGY STAR brand.
    Evaluation: Partners and other program participants are asked to
periodically submit information to EPA as needed to assist in
evaluating ENERGY STAR's effectiveness in helping organizations promote
energy efficiency in homes, to assess partners' level of interest and
ability in promoting ENERGY STAR in the residential sector, and to
determine the impact that ENERGY STAR has on residential energy use and
the supply and demand for energy-efficient homes and home improvement
products and services.
    Quarterly Reporting: Partners are asked to submit information each
calendar quarter to assist EPA in tracking and measuring progress in
building and promoting ENERGY STAR qualified homes and installing and
promoting energy-efficient improvements including those made under a
Home Performance with ENERGY STAR program. This includes submitting
quarterly updates on partners' level of activity in qualifying new
homes for the ENERGY STAR label and activity in improving the energy
efficiency of existing homes under Home Performance with ENERGY STAR
and ENERGY STAR's HVAC Quality Installation program.
    ENERGY STAR Awards: Each year, partners are eligible for an ENERGY
STAR award, which recognizes organizations demonstrating outstanding
support in promoting ENERGY STAR. This award program provides partners
public recognition and market differentiation. An application form is
submitted to EPA by partners interested in being eligible for an award.
    Outreach Partnership: Partners have the opportunity to participate
in an outreach partnership with EPA to develop public education
campaigns featuring the benefits of ENERGY STAR qualified homes.
Partners interested in participating in the outreach program are asked
to submit a form detailing their level of participation.
    Burden Statement: The average annual reporting and recordkeeping
burden for the ENERGY STAR Program and related activities is estimated
to be about one and a quarter hours per respondent. Burden means the
total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or
for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review
instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to
be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources;
complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or
otherwise disclose the information.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Home builders, home energy
verification organizations, lenders, regional energy efficiency
programs/utilities, contractors, retailers, manufactured home plants,
modular home plants, realtors, architects, homeowners.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 56,000.
    Frequency of Response: once, occasionally, quarterly, annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 180,958.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $10,896,852, which includes $16,000 in
annualized capital/startup costs, $1,439 in annual operation and
maintenance costs, and $10,879,413 in annual labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 5,509 hours in
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to changes in ENERGY STAR's
residential programs. New partnership categories have been added that
have collection activities associated with them. In addition, new
collection activities related to the evaluation of ENERGY STAR's
residential programs have been added. Finally, EPA has adjusted some of
its burden assumptions for its existing information collections to
reflect changes in the industry.
