SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
The EASA, which is the Technical Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD 2020-0036R1, dated June 24, 2020
(``EASA AD 2020-0036R1'') (also referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe
condition for all Airbus SAS Model A318 series airplanes; Model A319-
111, -112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, -133, -151N, and -153N
airplanes; Model A320-211, -212, -214, -215, -216, -231, -232, -233, -
251N, -252N, -253N, -271N, -272N, and -273N airplanes; and Model A321
series airplanes. EASA AD 2020-0036R1 revised EASA AD 2020-0036, dated
February 26, 2020 (``EASA AD 2020-0036'') (which the FAA referred to as
the appropriate source of service information for accomplishing the
actions specified in the notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)), and
superseded EASA AD 2018-0288 (which corresponds to FAA AD 2019-23-01
(AD 2019-23-01, Amendment 39-19794 (84 FR 66579, December 5, 2019)
(``AD 2019-23-01'')). Model A320-215 airplanes are not certificated by
the FAA and are not included on the U.S. type certificate data sheet;
this AD therefore does not include those airplanes in the
applicability.
The FAA issued a NPRM to amend 14 CFR part 39 to supersede AD 2019-
23-01, for certain Airbus SAS Model A318 series airplanes; A319-111, -
112, -113, -114, -115, -131, -132, and -133 airplanes; A320-211, -212,
-214, -216, -231, -232, -233, -251N, -252N, and -271N airplanes; and
A321 series airplanes. AD 2019-23-01 required revising the existing
maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or
more restrictive airworthiness limitations. AD 2019-23-01 required
airworthiness limitations that are newer or more restrictive than those
specified in AD 2018-25-02, Amendment 39-19513 (83 FR 62690, December
6, 2018) (``AD 2018-25-02''). AD 2019-23-01 specified that
accomplishing the revision required by paragraph (i) of AD 2019-23-01
terminated all requirements of AD 2018-25-02. The NPRM published in the
Federal Register on June 1, 2020 (85 FR 33046). The NPRM was prompted
by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations are necessary and models need to be added
[[Page 65198]]
to the applicability. The NPRM proposed to require revising the
existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to
incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address fatigue cracking, accidental
damage, or corrosion in principal structural elements, which could
result in reduced structural integrity of the airplane. See the MCAI
for additional background information.
Comments
The FAA gave the public the opportunity to participate in
developing this final rule. The following presents the comments
received on the NPRM and the FAA's response to each comment.
Request To Use Revised EASA AD
United Airlines (UAL) and American Airlines (AAL) supported the
NPRM and asked that the proposed AD refer to EASA AD 2020-0036R1 for
accomplishing the required actions (EASA AD 2020-0036, dated February
26, 2020, was referred to in the proposed AD). UAL stated that EASA AD
2020-0036R1 will allow operators to use current requirements and
prevent issuing a revised AD to require compliance with the revised
EASA AD. AAL also noted that operators should be allowed to use the
revised EASA AD.
The FAA agrees with the commenters' requests. EASA AD 2020-0036R1
does not substantively change the requirements of EASA AD 2020-0036.
Instead, EASA AD 2020-0036R1 adds credit for EASA AMOC approval
10071736 to EASA AD 2018-0288, and notes that Issue 02 of the ALS has
been released. The FAA has changed all references in this AD from EASA
AD 2020-0036 to EASA AD 2020-0036R1, added paragraph (l) to this AD to
provide credit for Rev 0, and changed subsequent paragraphs of this AD
accordingly.
Request To Confirm Intent To Allow Use of Later ALS Revisions
Delta Air Lines (DAL) requested confirmation that the FAA intended
to allow the use of later ALS revisions to comply with the proposed AD.
The commenter noted that previous ADs required an alternative method of
compliance (AMOC) to use a later ALS revision.
The FAA confirms that it intends to allow the use of applicable
later ALS revisions to comply with the requirements of this AD. This AD
refers to EASA AD 2020-0036R1 as the appropriate source of service
information for accomplishing the required actions. EASA AD 2020-0036R1
includes the Ref. Publications section, which accepts the use of later
approved variations or revisions of the referenced ALS document for
compliance. Therefore, applicable later approved ALS revisions are
acceptable.
Request To Allow AMOC Approval for Alternative Actions or Intervals
After Revision of Maintenance or Inspection Program
DAL requested that paragraph (k) of the proposed AD be changed to
also allow alternative actions and intervals after the maintenance and
inspection program has been revised, provided that the actions or
intervals are approved as an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) in
accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (n)(1) of the
proposed AD. Delta provided no reason or justification for the request.
The FAA acknowledges the commenter's request and provides
clarification that, if applicable, requesting an AMOC is always an
option; therefore, it is not necessary to revise paragraph (k) of this
AD. This AD has not been changed regarding this request.
Conclusion
The FAA reviewed the relevant data, considered the comments
received, and determined that air safety and the public interest
require adopting this final rule with the change described previously
and minor editorial changes. The FAA has determined that these minor
changes:
<bullet> Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
<bullet> Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.
The FAA also determined that these changes will not increase the
economic burden on any operator or increase the scope of this final
rule.
Related IBR Material Under 1 CFR Part 51
EASA AD 2020-0036R1 describes new or more restrictive airworthiness
limitations for damage tolerance of airplane structures.
This AD also requires Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 Airworthiness
Limitations Section (ALS) Part 2-Damage Tolerant Airworthiness
Limitation Items (DT-ALI), Revision 07, dated June 13, 2018, which the
Director of the Federal Register approved for incorporation by
reference as of January 9, 2020 (84 FR 66579, December 5, 2019).
This material is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD affects 1,553 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:
The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained
actions from AD 2019-23-01 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
The FAA has determined that revising the existing maintenance or
inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator,
although the agency recognizes that this number may vary from operator
to operator. In the past, the agency has estimated that this action
takes 1 work-hour per airplane. Since operators incorporate maintenance
or inspection program changes for their affected fleet(s), the FAA has
determined that a per-operator estimate is more accurate than a per-
airplane estimate. The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for
the new proposed actions to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-
hour).
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.
The FAA is 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.
[[Page 65199]]
For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
