Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain
The Boeing Company Model 767-200 and -300 series airplanes. This AD was

prompted by reports of multiple site damage cracks in the radial web
lap and tear strap splices of the aft pressure bulkhead at station
(STA) 1582 due to fatigue. This AD requires repetitive inspections for
cracking of the aft pressure bulkhead at STA 1582, repair or
replacement of any cracked bulkhead, and eventual replacement of the
aft pressure bulkhead at STA 1582 with a new bulkhead. Accomplishing
the replacement terminates the repetitive inspections required by this
AD. We are issuing this AD to prevent fatigue cracking of the aft
pressure bulkhead, which could result in rapid decompression of the
airplane and possible damage or interference with the airplane control
systems that penetrate the bulkhead, and consequent loss of
controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective June 18, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of June 18,
2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR
part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products.
That NPRM published in the Federal Register on September 27, 2011 (76
FR 59590). That NPRM proposed to require repetitive inspections for
cracking of the aft pressure bulkhead at station (STA) 1582, repair or
replacement of any cracked bulkhead, and eventual replacement of the
aft pressure bulkhead at STA 1582 with a new bulkhead. That proposed AD
specified that accomplishing the replacement would terminate the
repetitive inspections specified in the NPRM.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing
this AD. The following presents the comments received on the proposal
and the FAA's response to each comment.

Support for NPRM (76 FR 59590, September 27, 2011)

    American Airlines has no objection to the NRPM (76 FR 59590,
September 27, 2011), and noted that it will incorporate the
requirements into its maintenance program.

Request To Include AD 2004-14-19, Amendment 39-13728 (69 FR 42549, July
16, 2004) in NPRM (76 FR 59590, September 27, 2011) Requirements

    Boeing and Airborne Express (ABX) asked that the requirements in AD
2004-14-19, Amendment 39-13728 (69 FR 42549, July 16, 2004), be added
to the affected ADs section and the related requirements of the NPRM
(76 FR 59590, September 27, 2011). Boeing stated that this would ensure
that the initial actions in paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of AD 2004-14-
19 begin 50,000 flight cycles after the aft pressure bulkhead has been
replaced. ABX recommend that we add a paragraph that allows a 50,000
flight cycle threshold on a new aft pressure bulkhead for the
inspections required by AD 2004-14-19.
    We do not agree to include AD 2004-14-19, Amendment 39-13728 (69 FR
42549, July 16, 2004), in the affected ADs section and related
requirements of this AD. We have determined that an unsafe condition
exists, and that the actions this AD requires are adequate to ensure
the continued safety of the affected fleet. The commenter's suggested
changes would alter the actions currently required by this AD, so
additional rulemaking would be required. We find that delaying this
action would be inappropriate in light of the identified unsafe
condition. We have not changed this final rule regarding this issue.
However, operators can always request approval of an alternative method
of compliance (AMOC) for AD 2004-14-19.

Request To Clarify Terminating Action for Other ADs

    Boeing asked that we change paragraph (g) of the NPRM (76 FR 59590,
September 27, 2011) to remove the terminating action for the repetitive
inspections specified in paragraph (b) of AD 2004-05-16, Amendment 39-
13511 (69 FR 10917, March 9, 2004). Boeing stated that the inspections
required by paragraph (b) of AD 2004-05-16 are not terminated by doing
the inspections required by paragraph (g) of the NPRM. Boeing added
that the inspections required by AD 2004-05-16 are for cracking of the
web of the aft pressure bulkhead at the web y-chord joint. Boeing noted
that this cracking pattern, location, and growth rate are not covered
by the inspection in paragraph (g) of the NPRM.
    We agree with the commenter for the reasons provided. We have
removed the terminating action for the repetitive inspections required
by AD 2004-05-16 (69 FR 10917, March 9, 2004) from paragraph (g) of
this AD.
    Boeing also requested that we revise paragraph (g) of the NPRM (76
FR 59590, September 27, 2011) to specify that accomplishing the
inspections in paragraph (g) of the NPRM terminates the ``initial'' and
repetitive inspections required by paragraphs (f) ``and (h)'' of AD
2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11, 2005),
corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR 12119).
    We partially agree with the commenter. Doing the inspections
required by paragraph (g) of this AD replaces the inspections
(repetitive) required by paragraph (f) of AD 2005-03-11, Amendment 39-
13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11, 2005), corrected on March 11, 2005 (70
FR 12119). We have revised paragraph (g) of this AD accordingly.
However, the inspection required by paragraph (h) of AD 2005-03-11 is a
one-time inspection of the ``oil can'' locations of the aft pressure
bulkhead web, which is not in the same location as the inspections
required by paragraph (g) of the NPRM (76 FR 59590, September 27,
2011). Therefore the requirements in paragraph (h) of AD 2005-03-11
cannot be terminated by the inspections required by paragraph (g) of

this AD. However, under the provisions of paragraph (i) of this AD, we
will consider requests to provide such relief through approval of an
AMOC if sufficient data are submitted to substantiate that the
terminating action would also provide an acceptable level of safety.
    Boeing also asked that we revise paragraph (h) of the NPRM (76 FR
59590, September 27, 2011) to specify that doing the replacement
specified in paragraph (h) of the NPRM terminates the actions required
by paragraphs (a) and (b) of AD 2004-05-16, Amendment 39-13511 (69 FR
10917, March 9, 2004) and the actions required by paragraphs (f) and
(h) of AD 2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11,
2005), corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR 12119).
    We agree with the commenter. Once the replacement required by
paragraph (h) of this AD is done, it is not necessary to do the
inspections required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of AD 2004-05-16,
Amendment 39-13511 (69 FR 10917, March 9, 2004) and paragraphs (f) and
(h) of AD 2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11,
2005), corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR 12119). We have revised
paragraph (h) of this AD accordingly.

Request To Include Inspection in Airworthiness Limitations

    ABX asked that we add a new paragraph following paragraph (h) of
the NPRM (76 FR 59590, September 27, 2011), which allows synchronizing
the maintenance program and the AD requirements for all airplanes
equipped with improved aft pressure bulkheads. ABX added that we should
mandate the airworthiness limitations (AWLs) for the maintenance on aft
pressure bulkheads that have been replaced, in order to relieve the
burden of requesting AMOCs. ABX added that the improved aft pressure
bulkhead should have the same maintenance requirements whether it was
installed on an airplane in production or in service.
    We partially agree with the commenter. We agree that the actual
dimensional and material configuration of the modified aft pressure
bulkhead is identical to the later production airplanes. However,
although the configuration is identical, the fatigue life of the
bulkhead is not. All Model 767 airplanes, including the fatigue test
airplanes, are subject to limit test pressurization loads during
production. This limit loading substantially enhances the fatigue life
of the structure. We have made no change to the AD in this regard.

Clarification of Effect of Winglet Installation

    We have added new Note 1 to paragraph (c) of this AD to state that
supplemental type certificate (STC) ST01920SE (http://rgl.faa.gov/
Regulatory--and--Guidance--Library/rgstc.nsf/0/
082838ee177dbf62862576a4005cdfc0/$FILE/ST01920SE.pdf) does not affect
the ability to accomplish the actions required by this AD. Therefore,
for airplanes on which STC ST01920SE is installed, a ``change in
product'' AMOC approval request is not necessary to comply with the
requirements of 14 CFR 39.17.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments received,
and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting
the AD with the changes described previously. We also determined that
these changes will not increase the economic burden on any operator or
increase the scope of the AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 83 airplanes of U.S. registry. We
estimate the following costs to comply with 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

    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, 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.

Adoption of the Amendment

    Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA amends 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 adding the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):

2012-09-08 The Boeing Company: Amendment 39-17043; Docket No.

FAA-2011-0993; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-018-AD.

(a) Effective Date

    This AD is effective June 18, 2012.

(b) Affected ADs

    Certain requirements of this AD affect certain requirements of
AD 2004-05-16, Amendment 39-13511 (69 FR 10917, March 9, 2004), and
AD 2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11, 2005),
corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR 12119).

(c) Applicability

    This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 767-200 and -300
series airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in
Boeing Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0139, dated November 12, 2009.

    Note 1 to paragraph (c) of this AD:  Supplemental Type
Certificate (STC) ST01920SE (http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory--and--
Guidance--Library/rgstc.nsf/0/082838ee177dbf62862576a4005cdfc0/
$FILE/ST01920SE.pdf) does not affect the ability to accomplish the
actions required by this AD. Therefore, for airplanes on which STC
ST01920SE is installed, a ``change in product'' alternative method
of compliance (AMOC) approval request is not necessary to comply
with the requirements of 14 CFR 39.17.

(d) Subject

    Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC)/Air Transport Association
(ATA) of America Code 53: Fuselage.

(e) Unsafe Condition

    This AD was prompted by reports of multiple site damage cracks
in the radial web lap and tear strap splices of the aft pressure
bulkhead at station (STA) 1582 due to fatigue. We are issuing this
AD to prevent fatigue cracking of the aft pressure bulkhead, which
could result in rapid decompression of the airplane and possible
damage or interference with the airplane control systems that
penetrate the bulkhead, and consequent loss of controllability of
the airplane.

(f) Compliance

    Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.

(g) Repetitive Inspections

    Except as provided by paragraph (h) of this AD: Before the
accumulation of 43,000 total flight cycles, or within 1,600 flight
cycles after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later,
do detailed, low-frequency eddy current, and mid-frequency eddy
current inspections for cracking of the aft pressure bulkhead at STA
1582, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing
Alert Service Bulletin 767-53A0139, dated November 12, 2009. If any
crack is found, before further flight, replace the bulkhead as
required by paragraph (h) of this AD, or repair the crack in
accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 767-53A0139, dated November 12, 2009, and repeat
the inspections thereafter at intervals not to exceed 1,600 flight
cycles. If no crack is found, repeat the inspections thereafter at
intervals not to exceed 1,600 flight cycles. Accomplishing the
inspections required by this paragraph terminates the inspections
required by paragraph (f) of AD 2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70
FR 7174, February 11, 2005), corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR
12119).

(h) Replacement

    Except as provided by paragraph (g) of this AD: Before the
accumulation of 43,000 total flight cycles, or within 5,000 flight
cycles after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later:
Replace the aft pressure bulkhead at STA 1582 with a new bulkhead,
in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Alert
Service Bulletin 767-53A0139, dated November 12, 2009. Accomplishing
the replacement in this paragraph terminates the repetitive
inspections required by paragraph (g) of this AD. Accomplishing the
replacement in this paragraph also terminates the inspections
required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of AD 2004-05-16, Amendment 39-
13511 (69 FR 10917, March 9, 2004), and paragraphs (f) and (h) of AD
2005-03-11, Amendment 39-13967 (70 FR 7174, February 11, 2005),
corrected on March 11, 2005 (70 FR 12119).

(i) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs)

    (1) The Manager, Seattle Aircraft Certification Office (ACO),
FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested
using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. In accordance with 14
CFR 39.19, send your request to your principal inspector or local
Flight Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending
information directly to the manager of the ACO, send it to the
attention of the person identified in the Related Information
section of this AD. Information may be emailed to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    (2) Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate
principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager
of the local flight standards district office/certificate holding
district office.
    (3) An AMOC that provides an acceptable level of safety may be
used for any repair required by this AD if it is approved by the
Boeing Commercial Airplanes Organization Designation Authorization
(ODA) that has been authorized by the Manager, Seattle ACO to make
those findings. For a repair method to be approved, the repair must
meet the certification basis of the airplane, and the approval must
specifically refer to this AD.

Title: Title IV of the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002: Drinking Water Security and Safety EPA ICR Number 2103.01. This is a request for a new information collection, and a notification that EPA will seek an emergency clearance from OMB to begin collecting information. F. Abstract: Title IV of the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 ( Pub. L. 107   188) ( Act) amends the Safe Drinking Water Act ( SDWA). The Act requires each community water system ( CWS) serving a population of more than 3,300 people to conduct a vulnerability assessment of its water system and to prepare or revise an emergency response plan that incorporates the results of the vulnerability assessment. EPA will use the information collected under this ICR to determine whether CWSs have conducted vulnerability assessments and prepared or revised emergency response plans in compliance with the Act. Primary users of the information collected under this ICR include the EPA Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water, EPA Regional Administrators, and CWSs. EPA will comply with the Bioterrorism Act, which strictly limits the use of some of this information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15. G. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 117.9 hours per response. 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: Community water systems serving populations greater than 3,300 persons. Estimated Number of Respondents: 8,487 systems. Frequency of Response: Varies based on statutory schedule and system size. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 2,652,392 hours. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $ 156,540,365; includes $ 82,211 O& M costs and $ 0 capital and startup costs.

I. Background

a. Env-A 800 Testing and Monitoring Procedures

    On August 19, 2021, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental
Services (NH DES) submitted a revision to its State Implementation Plan
(SIP). The submittal consists of revisions to an existing rule, Env-A
800, Testing and Monitoring Procedures, that was previously approved
into the New Hampshire SIP. A clarification letter, along with the
updated rule, was subsequently submitted on December 20, 2021. The
clarification letter corrected an equation in the rule and omitted Env-
A 810 from the New Hampshire SIP submittal. Env-A 800 establishes
testing and monitoring procedures, calculation procedures, standards,
and requirements used to determine compliance with Federal and state
air pollution regulations. The State made a number of relatively minor
changes to the existing rule as described within this proposed
rulemaking and requested that the version submitted on August 19, 2021,
and clarified on December 20, 2021, be incorporated into the New
Hampshire SIP, except for (1) section 801.02(b) and (d), which are
related to trading programs, and (2) section 810, Air Pollution Control
Equipment Monitoring Plan; Additional Testing and Monitoring. NH DES
also stated that this revision supersedes all prior approved versions.

b. Env-A 619.03 PSD Program Requirements

    On September 16, 2021, NH DES submitted a revision to its SIP-
approved regulation Part Env-A 619.03, the State's CAA PSD permitting
program. The revision addresses conditional approvals related to the
State's PSD program for purposes of the 2015 Ozone and 2012
PM2.5 NAAQS infrastructure SIP requirements. Specifically,
EPA conditionally approved infrastructure SIP elements associated with
CAA sections 110(a)(2)(C), 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II), 110(a)(2)(J), and
110(a)(2)(K). See 85 FR 67651 (October 26, 2020).
    NH DES implements PSD largely through the incorporation by
reference of the Federal PSD program at 40 CFR 52.21, as it existed on
a specific date. The State's current SIP-approved version of the
Federal PSD program references 40 CFR 52.21 as it was codified on July
1, 2016. EPA's PSD regulations at 40 CFR 51.166(l) require a state's
SIP to ``provide for procedures which specify that [a]ll applications
of air quality modeling . . . shall be based on the applicable models,
data bases, and other requirements specified in'' EPA's Guideline on
Air Quality Models in appendix W of 40 CFR part 51, which was most
recently revised on January 17, 2017. 82 FR 5182; see also 82 FR 14324
(Mar. 20, 2017). CAA sections 110(a)(2)(C), (D)(i)(II), and (J) require
a state to make an infrastructure SIP submission demonstrating that the
air agency has a complete PSD permitting program in place satisfying
current requirements. CAA section 110(a)(2)(K) requires that the SIP
provide for the performance of such air quality modeling as the EPA
Administrator may prescribe for the purpose of predicting the effect on
ambient air quality of any emissions of any air pollutant for which EPA
has established a NAAQS.
    With New Hampshire's SIP referencing an earlier version of appendix
W through its incorporation by reference of 40 CFR 52.21 as codified on
July 1, 2016, EPA conditionally approved New Hampshire's infrastructure
SIP elements related to CAA sections 110(a)(2)(C), 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II),
110(a)(2)(J), and 110(a)(2)(K), as the State's PSD program was not
consistent with the current Federal requirements. EPA found that
outside the issue with appendix W, the State has a comprehensive PSD
permitting program in place satisfying all other PSD program elements.
    Prior to EPA's proposal of the conditional approvals, NH DES
committed in a letter dated June 3, 2020, to submit for EPA approval
revisions to Env-A 619.03 to update the reference date for 40 CFR 52.21
so as to incorporate EPA's current ``Guideline on Air Quality Models''
in appendix W to 40 CFR part 51. The State's September 16, 2021, SIP
submittal addresses its June 3, 2020, commitment to submit necessary
revisions of Env-A 619.03 to EPA for approval into the SIP.

c. Env-A 1200 VOC RACT

    On July 15, 2021, the NH DES submitted a revision to its SIP, which
consists of amendments to an existing rule, Env-A 1200, Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOC) Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT),
that was previously approved into the New Hampshire SIP on November 8,

2012 (77 FR 66921). Env-A 1200 establishes requirements for the
implementation of reasonably available control technology on certain
stationary sources located in New Hampshire that emit volatile organic
compounds. The rule expired on June 1, 2019, so the NH DES has
readopted the chapter with minor amendment for clarity and to align
with Federal requirements.

II. Summary and Evaluation of State Submittal

a. Env-A 800 Testing and Monitoring Procedures

    On August 19, 2021, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental
Services (DES) submitted state regulation Env-A 800, Testing and
Monitoring Procedures, to EPA and requested that the rule be submitted
into the State's SIP. A clarification letter, along with the updated
rule, was subsequently submitted on December 20, 2021. The State
indicated that these revisions supersede all prior approved versions.
    New Hampshire made the request in light of recent changes to the
rule as a matter of state law. The proposed amendments are as follows:
    1. Updates to the procedure for recertification of continuous
emissions monitoring systems. New Hampshire DES updated Env-A 800 to
clarify and correct pre-test, sampling, and report submittal procedures
for conducting Relative Accuracy Test Audits (RATAs) for recertifying
Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEM) systems installed at stationary
sources.
    2. Updates to nitrogen oxides (NOX) RACT testing requirements to be
consistent with Federal requirements. New Hampshire DES updated Env-A
800 to simplify testing requirements for gaseous concentration
measurements for NOX RACT-subject devices and tune-ups. For
example, one change New Hampshire made to the NOX RACT
testing requirement was to clarify that sources only needed to choose
one of the referenced test methods listed for gaseous concentration
measurements, rather than use multiple test methods.
    3. Removal of language pertaining to time-shared CEM systems. New
Hampshire DES updated Env-A 808, Continuous Emission Monitoring, to
remove a provision relating to time-shared CEM systems, as there no
longer are any installed at any New Hampshire sources.
    4. Modification of audit requirements to be consistent with EPA
requirements. New Hampshire DES updated Env-A 800 to modify quarterly
audit requirements for continuous opacity monitors to follow 40 CFR
part 60, appendix F, Procedure 3 procedures instead of 40 CFR part 60,
appendix B, Performance Specification 1 requirements in order to align
with changes in Federal requirements. For example, section 808.05(b) of
the previously adopted rule was modified such that the quarterly audit
requirements reference 40 CFR part 60, appendix F, Procedure 3, instead
of 40 CFR part 60, appendix B, Performance Specification 1.
    5. Change in compliance testing for NOX and carbon monoxide (CO).
New Hampshire DES updated Env-A 802.13, Compliance Stack Testing for
Emissions of Nitrogen Oxides (NOX) or Carbon Monoxide, to
require that when compliance testing is done for either NOX
or CO, that testing be done for both gases.
    6. Definitions and calculations for multi-day rolling emissions
averages. New Hampshire DES updated Env-A 808.01, Definitions, to
define ``rolling average'' as an arithmetic mean specified by an
applicable emission limit. The calculations are defined in updated
sections 808.01(h)(1)-(4).
    7. Modification of provisions of CEM systems. New Hampshire DES
updated Env-A 800 to revise provisions relative to installation,
operation, and auditing of CEM systems to cover the inclusion of future
Federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) requirements for CEM
systems.
    EPA has reviewed New Hampshire's August 19, 2021 submittal of
revisions to Env-A 800, Testing and Monitoring Procedures, and
subsequent December 20, 2021 clarification, and determined that they
represent approvable revisions to the version previously approved into
the New Hampshire SIP.

b. Env-A 619.03 PSD Program Requirements

    EPA has reviewed the State's September 16, 2021, SIP submittal with
respect to revision for Env-A 619.03. NH DES readopted with amendments
Env-A 619.03 on March 16, 2021. The readoption made the state's current
regulations consistent with the Federal regulations as of July 1, 2019.
NH DES amended Env-A 619.03 by including a new paragraph (d), which
definitively states, ``For the purposes of this part, the reference to
Appendix W in 40 CFR 52.21(l) shall refer to the July 1, 2019
edition.''
    The changes NH DES made to its regulation sufficiently address
EPA's October 26, 2020, conditional approvals of the PSD- and modeling-
related elements for the 2015 Ozone and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS
infrastructure SIP requirements. Specifically, the new paragraph (d)
provides that air quality modeling procedures will be consistent with
EPA's most recent revision of appendix W of 40 CFR part 51. Therefore,
EPA proposes to replace the version of Env-A 619.03 currently in New
Hampshire's SIP with the March 16, 2021, version and to convert the
previous conditional approvals to full approvals.

c. Env-A 1200 VOC RACT

    On July 15, 2021, NH DES submitted state regulation Env-A 1200,
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Reasonably Available Control
Technology (RACT), to EPA requesting the rule be approved into the
State's SIP, and that the previously approved version of the regulation
be removed from the SIP. The proposed amendments are primarily as
follows:
    1. Clarify exemptions. Env-A 1201.04 was revised to remove an
exemption for which an owner or operator may be exempt from the chapter
if they applied for a source specific RACT permit, or permit
modification, by May 31, 2013. Since this date has passed, this
provision is no longer applicable and was replaced with a provision of
similar intent, which states that a source now subject to a source
specific RACT permit, or a consent decree agreement, would be exempt
from the chapter. A provision was also added that reiterates language
elsewhere in the chapter that a source's emissions must be below the
relevant VOC category applicability threshold to be exempt from Env-A
1200.
    2. Expand alternative compliance procedures. Env-A 1205.02 was
revised to also be applicable to Env-A 1214 and 1220, flat wood
paneling and adhesive coating operations, respectively. These source
categories will be allowed to comply with their emission rates by
implementing add-on controls or a ``bubble,'' which is a process in
which similar sources at a facility are collectively controlled. This
form of alternative compliance must be no less stringent than the
otherwise prescribed limits. This paragraph was also edited to include
reference to Env-A 800, Testing and Monitoring Procedures, which are
customarily necessary for evaluating compliance with this chapter.
    3. Clarify that related cleaning activity emissions are generally
subject to this chapter. To be consistent with EPA Control Techniques
Guidelines (CTGs) documents, source emission applicability requirements
was revised to expressly include the cleaning

activities associated with the relevant VOC RACT category. New
Hampshire DES had, in practice, interpreted the previous Chapter as
such, therefore the actual level of control is not expected to change
because of this revision.
    EPA has reviewed New Hampshire's July 15, 2021, submittal of
revisions to Env-A 1200, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Reasonably
Available Control Technology (RACT) and determined that they represent
approvable revisions to the version previously approved into the New
Hampshire SIP. These revisions primarily clarify existing requirements
and in certain circumstances in which they expand control options, are
explicitly required to be no less stringent that the previous control
requirements. Therefore, the revised rule is expected to achieve no
fewer emission reductions that the previously approved version. Thus,
revising the SIP to incorporate the revised rule will not interfere
with any applicable requirement concerning attainment and reasonable
further progress or any other applicable requirement of the Act. See
CAA section 110(l).

III. Proposed Action

    EPA is proposing to approve the New Hampshire revisions to (1) Env-
A 800 submitted on August 19, 2021, and clarified on December 20, 2021;
(2) Env-A 619.03 submitted on September 16, 2021; and (3) Env-A 1200
submitted on August 19, 2021. Furthermore, EPA is proposing to convert
its October 26, 2020, conditional approvals of infrastructure SIP
elements associated with CAA sections 110(a)(2)(C),
110(a)(2)(D)(i)(II), 110(a)(2)(J), and 110(a)(2)(K) for the 2015 Ozone
and 2012 PM2.5 NAAQS to a full approval. EPA's proposed
action regarding infrastructure SIP requirements for the 2015 ozone and
2012 PM2.5 NAAQS is contained in Table 1 below.

    EPA is soliciting public comments on the issues discussed in this
document or on other relevant matters. These comments will be
considered before taking final action. Interested parties may
participate in the Federal rulemaking procedure by submitting written
comments to this proposed rule by following the instructions listed in
the ADDRESSES section of this Federal Register document.

IV. Incorporation by Reference

    In this rule, EPA is proposing to include in a final EPA rule
regulatory text that includes incorporation by reference. In accordance
with requirements of 1 CFR 51.5, the EPA is proposing to incorporate by
reference New Hampshire regulations Env-A 800 as adopted on April 30,
2019, with the exception of section 801.02(b) and (d) and section 810;
Env-A 619.03 as adopted on March 16, 2021; and Env-A 1200 as adopted on
October 17, 2019. The EPA has made, and will continue to make, these
documents generally available through https://www.regulations.gov and
at the EPA Region 1 Office (please contact the person identified in the
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this preamble for more
information).

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve a
SIP submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a).
Thus, in reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air Act.
Accordingly, this proposed action merely approves state law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by state law. For that reason, this proposed action:
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to review
by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Orders 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, January 21, 2011);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and

     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, the SIP is not approved to apply on any Indian
reservation land or in any other area where EPA or an Indian tribe has
demonstrated that a tribe has jurisdiction. In those areas of Indian
country, the rule does not have tribal implications and will not impose
substantial direct costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000).

Special Conditions: General Electric CT7-2E1 Turboshaft Engine

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed special conditions.

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes special conditions for the General
Electric CT7-2E1 engine model. This engine model will have a novel or
unusual design feature which is a combination of two existing ratings
into a new rating called ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating.
This rating is intended for the continuation of flight of a multi-
engine rotorcraft after one engine becomes inoperative. The applicable
airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety
standards for this design feature. These proposed special conditions
contain the additional safety standards the Administrator considers
necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established
by the existing airworthiness standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Comments Invited

    We invite interested people to take part in this rulemaking by
sending written comments, data, or views to the docket. The most
helpful comments reference a specific portion of the special
conditions, explain the reason for any recommended change, and include
supporting data. We will consider all comments received in the docket
on or before the closing date for comments. We will consider comments
filed late if it is possible to do so without incurring expense or
delay. We may change these special conditions based on the comments we
receive.

Background

    On September 10, 2009, General Electric applied for an amendment to
type certificate E8NE to add the new CT7-2E1 turboshaft engine model.
The CT7-2E1 engine model is a derivative of the CT7 engine family
certified between 1977 and 2010. It is a free turbine turbo shaft
designed for a transport category twin-engine helicopter. The CT7-2E1
engine will incorporate a novel and unusual feature which is the ``flat
30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating. The applicant requested this
rating to provide the increased power required for the rotorcraft
performance. A special condition is necessary to apply additional
requirements for the rating's definition, overspeed, controls system,
and endurance test because the applicable airworthiness standards do
not contain adequate or appropriate airworthiness standards to address
this design feature.

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of 14 CFR 21.101(a), GE must show that the
model CT7-2E1 turboshaft engine meets the provisions of the applicable
regulations in effect on the date of application, except as detailed in
paragraphs 21.101(b) and (c). The FAA has determined the following
certification basis for CT7-2E1 model turboshaft engine:
    1. 14 CFR part 33, ``Airworthiness Standards: Aircraft Engines'',
dated February 1, 1965, with Amendments 1 through 20 except Sec. Sec.
33.5(b)(4), A33.4(b)(1), and A33.4(b)(2) Amendments 1-25 applicable to
the ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating. The applicant will
voluntarily comply with Sec.  33.28, Amendments 1-28 for the EECU, FMU
and AISBV.
    2. 14 CFR part 34, Amendments 1 through 4, Sec.  34.11 ``Standard
for Fuel Venting Emissions''.
    Under the provisions of 14 CFR 21.101(d), if the FAA finds that the
regulations in effect on the date of the application for the change do
not provide adequate standards with respect to the proposed change
because of a novel or unusual design feature, the applicant must also
comply with special conditions, and amendments to those special
conditions, prescribed under the provisions of Sec.  21.16, to provide
a level of safety equal to that established by the regulations in
effect on the date of the application for the change.
    The FAA issues special conditions, as defined by 14 CFR 11.19,
under 14 CFR 11.38, which become part of the type certification basis
as specified in Sec. Sec.  21.17(a)(2) or 21.101(d).
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the engine model for
which they are issued. If the type certificate for that model is
amended later to include another related model that incorporates the
same or similar novel or unusual design feature, or if any other model
already included on the same type certificate is modified to
incorporate the same or similar novel or unusual design feature, the
special conditions may also apply to the other model.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The CT7-2E1 turboshaft engine will incorporate a ``flat 30-second
and 2-minute OEI'' rating, for use after the failure or shutdown of one
engine, and for up to three periods of 2.5 minutes each on any one
flight. Special conditions for the ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI''
rating are proposed to address this novel and unusual design feature.
The special conditions are discussed below.

Discussion

    The ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating is equivalent in
some regards with the 2\1/2\ min OEI rating and in other regards with
the 30-second OEI and the 2-minute OEI ratings. However, the proposed
rating differs from the 2\1/2\ minute OEI rating because it limits the
number of occurrences per flight and mandates post-flight inspection
and maintenance actions. The proposed rating is similar with the
combined or joined 30-second OEI and 2-minute OEI ratings when they are
equal. However, the existing standards are not adequate for this
combination.
    Similarly with the ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating, the
30-second and 2-minute OEI ratings were introduced to provide multi-
engine rotorcraft with high power for short periods of time when an
engine becomes inoperative during critical flight conditions. Existing
airworthiness standards for the 30-second OEI and 2-minute OEI ratings
were established based on the assumption that the two ratings will be
selected together as a package, and that the 30-second OEI rating is
higher than the 2-minute OEI rating. Because the 30-second OEI rating
was assumed higher, specific requirements were established for only
this rating and for the 30 seconds time period. When the 30-second and
2-minute OEI ratings are equal, these requirements must be extended to
a total period of 2.5 minutes.
    We identified the special conditions discussed below, that are
based on a combination of existing regulations for the 2\1/2\ minute
OEI rating on one hand, and the 30-second and 2-minute OEI ratings on
the other. Under the provisions of Sec.  21.101(d) the special
conditions must provide a level of safety equal to that established by
the regulations in effect on the date of the application for the
change. The FAA determined that the type certification basis for CT7-
2E1 engine model is up to and including Amendment 20 of part 33. We
also determined that the part 33 standards up to and including
Amendment 25 contain part of the standards for the ``flat 30-second and
2-minute OEI''. Therefore, we will not use special conditions when the
requirements exist in later amendments, and instead we will apply these
later amendments; refer to the above section titled ``Type
Certification Basis''. These standards are (1) Section A33.4,
Airworthiness Limitations Section, paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(2)
Amendments 1-25, and (2) Section 33.5 Instruction manual for installing
and operating the engine, paragraph (b)(4) Amendments 1-25.
    The special conditions are in addition to the requirements of the
30-second and 2-minute OEI ratings that remain applicable to the ``flat
30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating, as follows:
     The special conditions extend the standards applicable to
the 30-second OEI or 2-minute OEI for the 2.5 minutes time duration of
the ``flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI'' rating. We propose special
conditions by revising the time dependent requirements of Sec. Sec.
33.27, 33.87(a)(7), and 33.88(c). The 2.5 minutes time duration for the
proposed rating would affect the engine structural and operational
characteristics that are time dependent, such as the values for
transients, time duration for stabilization to steady state, and part
growth due to deformation. In addition, we propose special conditions
to extend the 30-second OEI rating requirements of Sec.  33.67(d) for
automatic availability

and control of the engine power, from 30 seconds to 2.5 minutes. FAA
proposes special conditions based on Sec.  33.28(k) requirements of
amendment 33-26, which are the same as those of Sec.  33.67(d)
amendment 33-18.
     Special conditions are required to account for the
proposed rating of 2.5 minutes time duration during the endurance test
conduct. For the 30-second and 2-minute OEI the test schedule of Sec.
33.87(f) is divided among the two ratings.
    We propose special conditions by revising the requirements of Sec.
33.87(f) to ensure the test will be run for 2.5 minutes duration with
no interruption.

Applicability

    As discussed above, these special conditions are applicable to GE's
CT7-2E1 turboshaft engines. If GE applies later for a change to the
type certificate to include another closely related model incorporating
the same novel or unusual design feature, these special conditions
would apply to that model as well, providing the certification basis is
the same or contains later amendments that satisfy the certification
basis discussed in the section titled ``Type Certification Basis''.

Conclusion

    This action affects only certain novel or unusual design features
on the CT7-2E1 turboshaft engine. It is not a rule of general
applicability, and it applies only to GE, who requested FAA approval of
this engine feature.

    The authority citation for these special conditions is as follows:

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701, 44702, 44704.

The Proposed Special Conditions

    Accordingly, the FAA proposes the following special conditions as
part of the type certification basis for GE CT7-2E1 turboshaft engine.

1. Part 1 Definitions

    Unless otherwise approved by the Administrator and documented in
the appropriate manuals and certification documents, the following
definition applies to this special condition: ``Rated flat 30-second
and 2-minute One Engine Inoperative (OEI) Power,'' with respect to
rotorcraft turbine engines, means (1) a rating for which the shaft
horsepower and associated operating limitations of the 30-second OEI
and 2-minute OEI ratings are equal, and (2) the shaft horsepower is
that developed under static conditions at the altitude and temperature
for the hot day, and within the operating limitations established under
part 33. The rating is for continuation of flight operation after the
failure or shutdown of one engine in multiengine rotorcraft, for up to
three periods of use no longer than 2.5 minutes each in any one flight,
and followed by mandatory inspection and prescribed maintenance action.

2. Part 33 Requirements

    (a) In addition to the airworthiness standards in the type
certification basis applicable to the engine and the 30-second and 2-
minute OEI ratings, the special conditions in this section apply.
    (b) Section 33.7 Engine ratings and operating limitations. Flat 30-
second and 2-minute OEI rating and operating limitations are
established by power, torque, rotational speed, gas temperature, and
time duration.
    (c) Section 33.27. Turbine, compressor, fan, and turbosupercharger
rotor overspeed. The requirements applicable to 2\1/2\ minute OEI
rating, except that following the test, the rotor may not exhibit
conditions such as cracking or distortion which preclude continued safe
operation.
    (d) Section 33.28 Engine controls systems. Must incorporate a
means, or a provision for a means, for automatic availability and
automatic control of the flat 30-second and 2-minute OEI power for the
duration of 2.5 minutes and within the declared operating limitations.
    (e) Section 33.87 Endurance test. The requirements applicable to
30-second and 2-minute OEI rating, except for:
    (1) The test of Sec.  33.87(a)(7) as applicable to the 2\1/2\
minute OEI rating. Note to paragraph (e)(1): For the purpose of
temperature stabilization, the test period time is 2.5 minutes.
    (2) The tests in Sec.  33.87(f)(2) and (3) must be run continuously
for the duration of 2.5 minutes, and
    (3) The tests in Sec.  33.87(f)(6) and (7) must be run continuously
for the duration of 2.5 minutes.
    (f) Section 33.88 Engine overtemperature test. The requirements of
Sec.  33.88(c) except that the test time is 5 minutes instead of 4
minutes.

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the

information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI). In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.

remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
     ii. Follow directions. The agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns, and
suggest alternatives.
     vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use
of profanity or personal threats.
     viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
