14 CFR Part 39

[Docket No. FAA-2013-0766; Directorate Identifier 2013-NE-26-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. Turboprop
Engines

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: We propose to revise airworthiness directive (AD) 2014-17-08
that applies to all Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. (P&WC) PT6A-114 and
PT6A-114A turboprop engines. AD 2014-17-08 requires initial and
repetitive borescope inspections (BSIs) of compressor turbine (CT)
blades, and the removal from service of blades that fail inspection.
Since we issued AD 2014-17-08, P&WC developed an additional single
crystal CT blade that corrects the unsafe condition. This proposed AD
would retain all the requirements of AD 2014-17-08, add an additional
single crystal CT blade that corrects the unsafe condition, reduce the
affected population, and correct the Credit for Previous Action
paragraph.

We are proposing this AD to prevent failure of CT blades, which could
result in damage to the engine and damage to the airplane.

DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by January 30,
2015.

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

Discussion

    On August 18, 2014, we issued AD 2014-17-08, Amendment 39-17961 (79
FR 52172, September 3, 2014), (``AD 2014-17-08''), for all P&WC PT6A-
114 and PT6A-114A turboprop engines. AD 2014-17-08 requires initial and
repetitive BSIs of CT blades, and the removal from service of blades
that fail inspection. AD 2014-17-08 resulted from several incidents of
CT blade failure, causing power loss, and engine failure. We issued AD
2014-17-08 to prevent failure of CT blades, which could result in
damage to the engine and damage to the airplane.

Actions Since AD 2014-17-08 Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2014-17-08 (79 FR 52172, September 3, 2014),
P&WC developed a new single crystal CT blade, P/N 3079351-01, to
correct the unsafe condition. The addition of this new P/N reduces the
affected population. Finally, we determined that in AD 2014-07-08, we
gave credit for action that is inapplicable to the unsafe condition.
Specifically, in the Credit for Previous Action paragraph, the AD
allows credit for a previously performed metallurgical examination of
``single crystal CT blades''. Metallurgical examination of single
crystal CT blades is inapplicable to the non-single crystal CT blades
referenced in Compliance paragraph (e)(1)(iii)(B) of this NPRM.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed P&WC Service Bulletin (SB) No. PT6A-72-1669, Revision
9, dated June 28, 2013. The service information describes procedures
for correcting the unsafe condition.

FAA's Determination

    We are proposing this NPRM because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

Proposed AD Requirements

    This NPRM would require initial and repetitive BSIs of CT blades,
and the removal from service of blades that fail inspection. This NPRM
would also require as a mandatory terminating action, replacement of
non-single crystal CT blades with single crystal CT blades at the next
shop visit. This NPRM also corrects the reference to single crystal CT
blades in the Credit for Previous Action paragraph. This NPRM also
reduces the affected population by introducing a new single crystal CT
blade P/N that addresses the unsafe condition.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this proposed AD affects 300 engines installed on
airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it would take about 4
hours per engine to perform the required inspection and 8 hours to
replace the blades. The average labor rate is $85 per hour. Required
parts cost about $59,334 per engine. Based on these figures, we
estimate the cost of this proposed AD on U.S. operators to be
$18,106,200.

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 have 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 that the 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 to the extent
that it justifies making a regulatory distinction, 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.

    Comments: Comments  are invited on: (1) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the Commission, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden and
cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information collection; and (4) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Commission staff thinks that the average respondent for
this collection is similarly situated to the Commission, in terms of
salary plus benefits. Based upon FERC's 2020 annual average full-
time equivalent of $172,329 per year (for salary plus benefits), the
average hourly cost is $83.00 per hour.

B1, B2, B3, BA, and D; and AS355E, F, F1, F2, and N Helicopters

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD)
for the specified ECF model helicopters. This AD results from a
mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) AD issued by the
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical Agent
for the Member States of the European Union. The MCAI AD states that
some cracks have been discovered in the spar of the upper fin on Model
AS355N helicopters. Due to the fin design similarity between AS350 and
AS355 helicopters, this AD action applies to both helicopter models.
Modifying the upper and lower fin attachment is intended to prevent
failure of a spar, loss of a fin, a separated fin hitting a rotor, and
subsequent loss of control of a helicopter.

DATES: This AD becomes effective on February 8, 2012.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications is approved
by the Director of the Federal Register as of February 8, 2012.
    We must receive comments on this AD by March 26, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    On March 11, 1983, we issued AD 82-13-05 R1, Amendment 39-4567 (48
FR 13406, March 31, 1983), which revised AD 82-13-05, Amendment 39-4401
(47 FR 27244, June 24, 1982), which superseded AD 82-02-02, Amendment
39-4294 (47 FR 1113, January 11, 1982). The current AD requires a
visual check for a crack in the flanges of the upper vertical fin
support before the first flight each day. It also requires an initial
10 hours time-in-service (TIS) inspection and thereafter, at intervals
not to exceed 50 hours TIS, repetitive dye-penetrant or equivalent
inspections for a crack in the flange of the upper vertical fin
support. Since we issued those ADs, there have been additional reports
of cracks in the spar area of the upper tail fin of the ECF Model
AS355N helicopters.
    EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD No. 2009-0030, dated February 12,
2009, which supersedes EASA AD 2008-0121, dated June 27, 2008, for the
AS350 helicopters. EASA has also issued AD No. 2009-0029, dated
February 12, 2009, which supersedes EASA AD 2008-0120, dated June 27,
2008, for the AS355 helicopters. This latest unsafe condition results
from additional cracks that have been discovered in the spar of the
upper fin on Model AS355N helicopters. Due to the fin design similarity
between AS350 and AS355 helicopters, the same corrective action applies
to both model helicopters. Modifying the upper and lower fin attachment
is intended to prevent failure of a spar, loss of a fin, a separated
fin hitting a rotor, and subsequent loss of control of a helicopter.
    You may obtain further information by examining the MCAI and any
related service information in the AD docket.

Related Service Information

    ECF has issued Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) No. 55.00.12, Revision
1, dated January 5, 2009, specifying MOD 073330 for the Model AS355E,
F, F1, F2, and N helicopters and No. 55.00.16, Revision 1, dated
January 5, 2009, specifying MOD 073330 for the Model SA350B, B1, B2,
B3, BA, BB, D, and L1 helicopters. ECF has also issued ASB No.
55.00.11, Revision 2, dated February 28, 2008, specifying MOD 073288
for the AS355 E, F, F1, F2, and N helicopters and No. 55.00.13,
Revision 2, dated February 28, 2008, specifying MOD 073288 for the
AS350B3 helicopters. These ASBs specify various inspections and
modifications for improving or monitoring upper and lower fin
attachments and improving the attachment strength for upper and lower
tailboom fin. The actions described in the MCAI AD are intended to
correct the same unsafe condition as that identified in the service
information.

FAA's Evaluation and Unsafe Condition Determination

    These products have been approved by the aviation authority of
France and are approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to
our bilateral agreement with France, EASA, their technical agent, has
notified us of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI AD. We are
issuing this AD because we evaluated all information provided by the
EASA and determined the unsafe condition exists and is likely to exist
or develop on other ECF helicopters of these same type designs.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI

    We refer to flight hours as hours time-in-service. The dates in the
MCAI have already passed; therefore, we did not use them in this AD.
Also, some of the requirements are out-of-date, and we have not
included them in this AD. We have also made some minor editorial
changes for clarity.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect about 791 helicopters of U.S.
registry. We also estimate that it will take about 4 work-hours per
helicopter to modify the upper and lower fins and the upper and lower
fin attachments. The average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required
parts will cost about $453. Based on these figures, we estimate the
cost of this AD on U.S. operators will be $793 to modify each
helicopter or $627,263 for the fleet, assuming every helicopter is
modified.

FAA's Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this superseding AD. We find that the risk to the flying public
justifies waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule
because of reported cracks in the spar of the upper fin on AS355N
helicopters. The growth of a crack in a fin attachment spar might occur
quickly and if not corrected, lead to failure of a spar, loss of a fin,
a separated fin hitting a rotor, and subsequent loss of control of the
helicopter. Therefore, we have determined that notice and opportunity
for public comment before issuing this AD are impracticable and that
good cause exists for making this amendment effective in fewer than 30
days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety, and we did not precede it by notice and opportunity for public
comment. However, we invite you to send us any written data, views, or
arguments concerning this AD. Send your comments to an address listed
under the ADDRESSES section of this AD. Include ``Docket No. FAA-2011-
0923; Directorate Identifier 2009-SW-20-AD'' at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this AD. We will
consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this
AD because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about 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 product(s) identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We determined that 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.
    Therefore, I certify this AD:
    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 to the extent that
it justifies making a regulatory distinction; 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 an economic evaluation of the estimated costs to comply
with this AD and placed it in the AD docket.

Reason

    (d) The mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) AD
states that some cracks have been discovered in the spar of the
upper fin on Model AS355N helicopters. Due to the fin design
similarity between AS350 and AS355 helicopters, the

same corrective action applies to both types of helicopters.

Actions and Compliance

    (e) Within 30 days, unless accomplished previously:
    (1) For Model AS350 helicopters with part numbers listed in
paragraph (c)(1) of this AD, modify each fin as depicted in Figure 1
and by following the Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2.B.2.,
Eurocopter Model AS350 Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) No. 55.00.16,
Revision 1, dated January 5, 2009.
    (2) For Model AS355 helicopters with part numbers listed in
paragraph (c)(2) of this AD, modify each fin as depicted in Figure 1
and by following the Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2.B.2.,
of Eurocopter AS 355 ASB 55.00.12, Revision 1, dated January 5,
2009.

    Note: Eurocopter Safety Information Notice No. 2315-S-55,
Revision 1, dated April 21, 2011, not incorporated by reference,
contains information about the subject of this AD.

Differences Between This AD and the MCAI

    (f) We refer to flight hours as hours TIS. The dates in the MCAI
have already passed; therefore, we did not use them in this AD.
Also, some of the requirements are out-of-date, and we have not
included them in this AD. We have also made some minor editorial
changes for clarity.

14 CFR Part 97

[Docket No. 31420; Amdt. No. 4001]

Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and Takeoff Minimums and
Obstacle Departure Procedures; Miscellaneous Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule establishes, amends, suspends, or removes Standard
Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPS) and associated Takeoff Minimums
and Obstacle Departure procedures (ODPs) for operations at certain
airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption
of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the
National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational

facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements.
These changes are designed to provide safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under
instrument flight rules at the affected airports.

DATES: This rule is effective April 6, 2022. The compliance date for
each SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, and ODP is specified in the
amendatory provisions.
    The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in
the regulations is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as
of April 6, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Availability of matters incorporated by reference in the
amendment is as follows:

of charge. Visit the National Flight Data Center at nfdc.faa.gov to
register. Additionally, individual SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and ODP
copies may be obtained from the FAA Air Traffic Organization Service

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends 14 CFR part 97 by
establishing, amending, suspending, or removes SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums
and/or ODPS. The complete regulatory description of each SIAP and its
associated Takeoff Minimums or ODP for an identified airport is listed
on FAA form documents which are incorporated by reference in this
amendment under 5 U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 CFR part 97.20.
The applicable FAA Forms 8260-3, 8260-4, 8260-5, 8260-15A, 8260-15B,
when required by an entry on 8260-15A, and 8260-15C.
    The large number of SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, their complex
nature, and the need for a special format make publication in the
Federal Register expensive and impractical. Further, airmen do not use
the regulatory text of the SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums or ODPs, but instead
refer to their graphic depiction on charts printed by publishers or
aeronautical materials. Thus, the advantages of incorporation by
reference are realized and publication of the complete description of
each SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP listed on FAA form documents is
unnecessary. This amendment provides the affected CFR sections and
specifies the typed of SIAPS, Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their
applicable effective dates. This amendment also identifies the airport
and its location, the procedure, and the amendment number.

Availability and Summary of Material Incorporated by Reference

    The material incorporated by reference is publicly available as
listed in the ADDRESSES section.
    The material incorporated by reference describes SIAPS, Takeoff
Minimums and/or ODPs as identified in the amendatory language for part
97 of this final rule.

The Rule

    This amendment to 14 CFR part 97 is effective upon publication of
each separate SIAP, Takeoff Minimums and ODP as amended in the
transmittal. Some SIAP and Takeoff Minimums and textual ODP amendments
may have been issued previously by the FAA in a Flight Data Center
(FDC) Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) as an emergency action of immediate
flights safety relating directly to published aeronautical charts.
    The circumstances that created the need for some SIAP and Takeoff
Minimums and ODP amendments may require making them effective in less
than 30 days. For the remaining SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, an
effective date at least 30 days after publication is provided.
    Further, the SIAPs and Takeoff Minimums and ODPs contained in this
amendment are based on the criteria contained in the U.S. Standard for
Terminal Instrument Procedures (TERPS). In developing these SIAPs and
Takeoff Minimums and ODPs, the TERPS criteria were applied to the
conditions existing or anticipated at the affected airports. Because of
the close and immediate relationship between these SIAPs, Takeoff
Minimums and ODPs, and safety in air commerce, I find that notice and
public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and contrary
to the public interest and, where applicable, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d),
good cause exists for making some SIAPs effective in less than 30 days.
    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore--(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);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. For the same reason, the FAA
certifies that this amendment will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

[Docket No. NHTSA-2023-0024]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Notice and Request for
Comment; First Responder Incident Advanced Reporting Program: Extension
of Comment Period

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Extension of comment period.

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

SUMMARY: NHTSA is extending the comment period for the notice NHTSA
published on June 12, 2023 seeking public comment on its intention to
seek approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a new
information collection for NHTSA's planned First Responder Incident
Advanced Reporting (FRIAR) Program. The comment period for the FRIAR
notice was scheduled to end on August 11, 2023. NHTSA is extending the
comment period for the notice by 20 days to allow for additional time
to submit comments.

DATES: The comment period for the notice published on June 12, 2023, at
88 FR 38124, is extended to August 31, 2023.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by the Docket No. NHTSA-
2023-0024 through any of the following methods:
     Electronic submissions: Go to the Federal eRulemaking
Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions
for submitting comments.
     Fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
     Mail or Hand Delivery: Docket Management, U.S. Department
of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, West Building, Room W12-
140, Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through
Friday, except on Federal holidays.
    Instructions: All submissions must include the agency name and
docket number for this notice. Note that all comments received will be
posted without change to http://www.regulations.gov, including any
personal information provided. Please see the Privacy Act heading
below.
    Privacy Act: Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or access

Investigation (NEF-100),<PHONE_NUMBER>, National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, W48-336, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200
New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the requirements of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), before an
agency submits a proposed collection of information to OMB for
approval, it must first publish a document in the Federal Register
providing a 60-day comment period and otherwise consult with members of
the public and affected agencies concerning each proposed collection of
information. In accordance with this requirement, NHTSA published a
Federal Register notice on June 12, 2023 (88 FR 38124) seeking public
comment on its intention to seek approval from OMB for a new
information collection that will allow NHTSA to provide first
responders with a distinct mechanism to report to NHTSA's Office of
Defects Investigation (ODI) regarding fatalities, injuries, or crashes
that may have been caused due to an alleged defect. Currently, ODI
collects Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQ) to gather information from
the public about alleged or suspected safety defects. The FRIAR
collection will be a separate method to collect safety and defect
related information from the first responder community that will
expedite and prioritize ODI's review of such reports.
    In addition to publishing the 60-day notice, and consistent with
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, NHTSA conducted
additional outreach regarding this effort by highlighting NHTSA's
publication of its June 12, 2023 notice during a presentation at the
IACP Impaired Driving and Traffic Safety Conference on August 9, 2023.
The conference is widely attended by potential FRIAR respondents and
other traffic safety professionals and some attendees expressed
interest in providing comments on the notice. In order to provide
additional time for these comments to be submitted, NHTSA is extending
the comment period by 20 days.
    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter
35, as amended; 49 CFR 1.49; and DOT Order 1351.29A.

Tanya Topka,
Acting Director, Office of Defect Investigation.
