[Docket No. FAA-2012-1158; Directorate Identifier 2011-NM-232-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Airbus Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to supersede an existing airworthiness directive
(AD) that applies to all Airbus Model A300 and A310 series airplanes;
and Model A300 B4-600, B4-600R, and F4-600R series airplanes, and Model
A300 C4-605R Variant F airplanes (collectively called A300-600 series
airplanes). The existing AD currently requires revising the
Airworthiness Limitations section of the Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness to incorporate new and revised structural inspections and
inspection intervals. Since we issued that AD, Airbus has revised
certain ALI documents, which require more restrictive maintenance
requirements and airworthiness limitations. This proposed AD would
revise the maintenance program to incorporate the limitations section.
We are proposing this AD to prevent fatigue cracking, damage, or
corrosion in principal structural elements, which could result in
reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by December 24,
2012.

Discussion

    On May 2, 2011, we issued AD 2011-10-17, Amendment 39-16698 (76 FR
27875, May 13, 2011). That AD required actions intended to address an
unsafe condition on the products listed above.
    Since we issued AD 2011-10-17, Amendment 39-16698 (76 FR 27875, May
13, 2011), Airbus has revised certain ALI documents, which require more
restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. The
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European Community, has issued EASA
Airworthiness Directive 2011-0198, dated October 19, 2011 (referred to
after this as ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the
specified products. The MCAI states:

    The airworthiness limitations applicable to the Damage Tolerant
Airworthiness Limitation Items (DT ALIs) are currently listed in
Airbus ALI Documents, which are referenced in the A300, A310 and
A300-600 Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) Part 2.
    Airbus have recently revised the A300-600 and A310 ALI
Documents, and these issues have been approved by EASA. The Airbus
A300-600 ALI Document issue 13 and temporary revision (TR) 13.1 and
the A310 ALI document issue 08 introduce more restrictive
maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations, which have
been identified as mandatory actions for continued airworthiness.
    EASA AD 2009-0155 [which corresponds to FAA AD 2011-10-17,
Amendment 39-16698 (76 FR 27875, May 13, 2011)] required compliance
with the maintenance requirements and associated airworthiness
limitations defined in the following documents:
    --AIRBUS A300 ALI Document issue 04,
    --AIRBUS A310 ALI Document issue 07, and
    --AIRBUS A300-600 ALI Document issue 12.
    For the reasons described, this EASA AD retains the requirements
of EASA AD 2009-0155, which is superseded, and requires compliance
with the airworthiness limitations defined in the Airbus A300-600
ALI Document issue 13 and TR13.1, and the A310 ALI document issue
08.

You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI in the AD
docket.

Relevant Service Information

    Airbus has issued the following service information. The actions
described in this service information are intended to correct the
unsafe condition identified in the MCAI.
     Airbus A310 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document, AI/
SE-M2/95A.1309/07, Issue 8, dated October 2010 (for Model A310-203, -
204, -221, -222, -304, -322, -324, and -325 airplanes).
     Airbus A300-600 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document,
AI/SE-M2/95A.1310/07, Issue 13, dated October 2010 (Model A300 B4-601,
B4-603, B4-620, B4-622, B4-605R, B4-622R, F4-605R, F4-622R, and C4-605R
Variant F airplanes).
     Airbus Temporary Revision 13.1, dated February 2011, to
the Airbus A300-600 Airworthiness Limitation Items Document, AI/SE-M2/
95A.1310/07, Issue 13, dated October 2010 (for Model A300 B4-601, B4-
603, B4-620, B4-622, B4-605R, B4-622R, F4-605R, F4-622R, and C4-605R
Variant F airplanes).

FAA's Determination and Requirements of This Proposed AD

    These products have 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.
    This proposed AD requires revisions to certain operator maintenance
documents to include new actions (e.g., inspections). Compliance with
these actions is required by section 91.403(c) of the Federal Aviation
Regulations (14 CFR 91.403(c)). For airplanes that have been previously
modified, altered, or repaired in the areas addressed by these
inspections, an operator might not be able to accomplish the actions
described in the revisions. In this situation, to comply with 14 CFR
91.403(c), the operator must request approval of an alternative method
of compliance (AMOC) in accordance with the provisions of paragraph
(u)(1) of this proposed AD. The request should include a description of
changes to the required actions that will ensure the continued damage
tolerance of the affected structure.

Costs of Compliance

    Based on the service information, we estimate that this proposed AD
would affect about 170 products of U.S. registry.
    The actions that are required by AD 2011-10-17, Amendment 39-16698
(76 FR 27875, May 13, 2011), and retained in this proposed AD take
about 1 work-hour per product, at an average labor rate of $85 per work
hour. Based on these figures, the estimated cost of the

currently required actions is $85 per product.
    We estimate that it would take about 1 work-hour per product to
comply with the new basic requirements of this proposed AD. The average
labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate
the cost of the proposed AD on U.S. operators to be $14,450, or $85 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.
    We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to
comply with this proposed AD and placed it in the AD docket.

    Title: NESHAP for Natural Gas Transmission and Storage (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1789.07, OMB Control Number 2060-0418.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2012.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Natural Gas Transmission and Storage (40 CFR
part 63, subpart HHH) were proposed on February 6, 1998, and
promulgated on June 17, 1999. These regulations apply to existing
facilities and new facilities that are major sources of hazardous air
pollutants (HAP) and that either transport or store natural gas prior
to entering the pipeline to a local distribution company or to a final
end user (if there is no local distribution company).
    In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the
affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the
occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the
operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the
monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and
records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of
all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
    All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In
the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are
sent directly to the EPA regional office. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart HHH, as
authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required
information consists of emissions data and other information that have
been determined to be private.
    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 Number for the EPA
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 15
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 which have subsequently changed; 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: Owners or operators of natural gas
transmission and storage facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 836.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 950.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $91,018, which includes $91,018 in
labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and no operation and maintenance
(O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in labor hours and
costs for both the respondents and the Agency from the most recently
approved ICR. This is due to two considerations. First, the estimated
number of respondents subject to the standard has increased due to
industry growth in the past three years. Second, this ICR uses updated
labor rates to reflect the most recent data from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics.
