II. Background

What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) has developed a commodity
vocabulary database entitled Food and Feed Commodity Vocabulary. The
database was developed to consolidate all the major OPP commodity
vocabularies into one standardized vocabulary. As a result, all future
pesticide tolerances issued under 40 CFR part 180 will use the
``preferred commodity term'' as listed in the aforementioned database.
This is the ninth in a series of documents revising the terminology of
commodity terms listed under 40 CFR part 180. Eight final rules,
revising pesticide tolerance nomenclature, have published in the
Federal Register: June 19, 2002 (67 FR 41802) (FRL-6835-2); June 21,
2002 (67 FR 42392) (FRL-7180-1); July 1, 2003 (68 FR 39428) (FRL-7308-
9) and (68 FR 39435) (FRL-7316-9); December 13, 2006 (71 FR 74802)
(FRL-8064-3); September 18, 2007 (72 FR 53134) (FRL-8126-5) corrected
on October 31, 2007 (72 FR 61535) (FRL-8151-4); and October 10, 2008,
(73 FR 60151) (FRL-8376-1). This revision process will establish a
uniform presentation of existing commodity terms under 40 CFR part 180.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

     This document makes technical amendments to the Code of Federal
Regulations which have no substantive impact on the underlying
regulations, and does not otherwise impose or amend any requirements.
As such, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has determined that
a technical amendment is not a ``significant regulatory action''
subject to review by OMB under Executive Order 12866, entitled
Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because
this final rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order
12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355,
May 22, 2001). This rule does not contain any information collections
subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose any enforceable duty or contain any
unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4). Nor does it require any
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994); or OMB review
or any Agency action under Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not involve any technical
standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary
consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law
104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). The Regulatory Flexibility
Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) generally requires an agency to
prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice
and comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure
Act or any other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule will
not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small
entities. Small entities include small businesses, small organizations,
and small governmental organizations. After considering the economic
impacts of today's rule on small entities, I certify that this action
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. These technical amendments to the Code of Federal
Regulations have no substantive impact on the underyling regulations.
These technical amendments will not have any negative economic impact
on any entities, including small entities. In addition, the Agency has
determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect
on 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, as specified in

Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by State and local
officials in the development of regulatory policies that have
federalism implications.'' ``Policies that have federalism
implications'' is defined in the Executive Order to include regulations
that have ``substantial direct effects 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.'' This rule directly regulates growers, food processors,
food handlers and food retailers, not States. This action does not
alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities
established by Congress in the preemption provisions of section
408(n)(4) of the FFDCA. For these same reasons, the Agency has
determined that this rule does not have any ``tribal implications'' as
described in Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 6,
2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by tribal officials in
the development of regulatory policies that have tribal implications.''
``Policies that have tribal implications'' is defined in the Executive
Order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct effects on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and the Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.''
This rule will not have substantial direct effects on tribal
governments, 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, as specified in
Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to
this rule.

IV. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the Agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register.
This rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

14 CFR Part 33

[EDocket No. FAA-2012-1085; Special Conditions No. 33-013-SC]

Special Conditions: Turbomeca Ardiden 3K Turboshaft Engine

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final special condition.

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

SUMMARY: We are issuing these special conditions for the Turbomeca
Ardiden 3K model engines. This engine model will have a novel or
unusual design feature that is a 30-minute all engines operating (AEO)
power rating for hovering at increased power (HIP). This rating is
primarily intended for high-power hovering operations that are normal
mission functions. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not
contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design
feature. These special conditions contain the additional safety
standards that the FAA considers necessary to establish a level of
safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness
standards.

DATES: The effective date of these special conditions is May 3, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 15, 2010, Turbomeca S.A. (Turbomeca) applied for a
type certificate for their new Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine. The
Ardiden 3K engine is the first variant in the new Ardiden 3 series.
This engine incorporates a two-stage centrifugal compressor that is
driven by a single-stage high-pressure turbine. A two-stage power
turbine drives the engine output shaft. The control system includes a
dual-channel full-authority digital-electronic control.
    The engine will incorporate a novel or unusual design feature,
which is a 30-minute hovering at increased power (HIP) rating. The
applicant requested this rating to support extended hover operations at
high power.
    Special conditions are necessary to apply additional requirements
for rating definition, instructions for continued airworthiness (ICA),
instrumentation, and endurance testing because the applicable
airworthiness standards do not contain adequate or appropriate
airworthiness standards to address this design feature. The ICA
requirement addresses the unknown nature of actual rating usage and
associated engine deterioration. The applicant is expected to assess
the expected usage, and publish ICA and Airworthiness Limitations
Section limits in accordance with those assumptions, such that engine
deterioration is not excessive. The instrumentation requirement is to
ensure that operators use this high-power rating within its limits, and
that engine integrity is maintained. The endurance test requirement of
25 hours operation at 30-minutes HIP is similar to other special
conditions recently issued. Because the Ardiden 3K model has a
continuous one engine inoperative (OEI) rating with limits equal to or
higher than the proposed 30-minute HIP rating, the applicant may credit
the test time performed at the continuous OEI rating toward the 25-hour
requirement. However, test time spent at other rating elements of the
test, such as takeoff or other OEI ratings (that are equal to or higher
than HIP rating values), cannot be counted toward the 25 hours of
required running.
    These special conditions contain the additional airworthiness
standards necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to the
level intended by the applicable standards of airworthiness in effect
on the date of application.

Type Certification Basis

    Under the provisions of 14 CFR 21.17 and 21.101(a), Turbomeca must
show that the model Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine meets the provisions
of the applicable regulations in effect on the date of application, or
later amendment if so elected. Accordingly, the certification basis for
the Ardiden model turboshaft engine is determined to be part 33,
effective February 1, 1965, as amended by Amendments 33-1 through 33-
31.
    If because of a novel or unusual design feature, we find that the
applicable airworthiness regulations in part 33, as amended, do not
contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for the Turbomeca
model Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine, special conditions are prescribed
under the provisions of Sec.  21.16.
    We issue 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.  21.17(a)(2).
    Special conditions are initially applicable to the 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
would also apply to the other model.

Novel or Unusual Design Features

    The Turbomeca model Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine will incorporate a
30-minute HIP rating, for use up to 30 minutes at any time between
take-off and landing. The 30-minute time limit applies to each instance
the rating is used. However, there is no limit to the number of times
the rating can be used during any one flight and there is no cumulative
time limitation. These special conditions for a 30-minute HIP rating
apply to address this novel and unusual design feature.

Discussion of Comments

    A notice of proposed special conditions, Notice 33-12-02-SC for the
Turbomeca model Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine was published on November
8, 2012 (77 FR 66936). We received no comments.

Applicability

    These special conditions are applicable to Turbomeca model Ardiden
3K turboshaft engines. If Turbomeca 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. This is true, if the certification
basis is the same or contains later amendments that satisfy the
certification basis discussed in the section titled ``Type
Certification Basis.''

Conclusion

    We reviewed the available data and have determined that air safety
and the public interest require adopting these special conditions as
proposed. This action affects certain novel or unusual design features
on the Turbomeca Model Ardiden 3K turboshaft engine. It is not a rule
of general applicability, and applies only to Turbomeca, that requested
FAA approval for these engine features.

The Special Conditions

0
Accordingly, the FAA issues the following special conditions as part of
the type certification basis for the Turbomeca model Ardiden 3K
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 these special conditions: ``Rated 30-Minute Hover
at Increased Power (HIP),'' means the approved shaft horsepower
developed under static conditions at the specified altitude and
temperature, and within the operating limitations established under
part 33, and limited in use to periods not exceeding 30 minutes.

2. Part 33 Requirements

    (a) Sections 33.1 Applicability and 33.3 General. As applicable,
all documentation, testing and analysis required to comply with the
part 33 certification basis must account for the 30-minute HIP rating,
limits, and usage.
    (b) Section 33.4, Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA).
In addition to the requirements of Sec.  33.4, the ICA must:
    (1) Include instructions to ensure that in-service engine
deterioration due to rated 30-minute HIP usage will not be excessive,
meaning that all approved ratings, including One Engine Inoperative
(OEI), are available (within associated limits and assumed usage) for
each flight; and that deterioration will not exceed that assumed for
declaring a Time Between Overhaul period.
    (2) Validate the adequacy of the maintenance actions required under
paragraph (b)(1) above.
    (3) Include in the Airworthiness Limitations section, any mandatory
inspections and serviceability limits related to the use of the 30-
minute HIP rating.
    (c) Section 33.29, Instrument Connection. The engine must have a
means or a provision for a means, which alerts the pilot when the 30-
minute HIP rating time limit has expired.
    (d) Section 33.87, Endurance Test. In addition to the applicable
requirements of Sec. Sec.  33.87(a), 33.87(d) and 33.87(e) (for engines
that combine 2.5 minute and continuous OEI ratings):
    (1) The overall test run must include a minimum of 25 hours of
operation at 30-minute HIP rating and limits, divided into periods of
not less than 30 minutes but not more than 60 minutes, with alternate
periods at maximum continuous power or less.
    (2) Each Sec.  33.87(d)(3) continuous OEI rating test period of 60
minutes duration run at power and limits equal to or higher than the
30-minute HIP rating, may be credited toward this requirement. Note
that you may not count the test time required for the takeoff or other
OEI ratings toward the 25 hours of testing required at the 30-minute
HIP rating.
