SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Discussion

    We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 
part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to certain Bombardier, Inc. 
Model DHC-8-102, -103, -106, -201, -202, -301, -311, and -315 
airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on August 18, 
2014 (79 FR 48703).
    Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA), which is the aviation 
authority for Canada, has issued Canadian Airworthiness Directive CF-
2007-32R2, dated June 27, 2013 (referred to after this as the Mandatory 
Continuing Airworthiness Information, or ``the MCAI''), to correct an 
unsafe condition on certain Bombardier, Inc. Model DHC-8-102, -103, -
106, -201, -202, -301, -311, and -315 airplanes. The MCAI states:

    Bombardier Aerospace has completed a system safety review of the 
aeroplanes fuel system against fuel tank safety standards * * *. The 
identified non-compliances were then assessed * * *, to determine if 
mandatory corrective action is required.
    The assessment showed that supplemental maintenance tasks are 
required to prevent potential ignition sources within the fuel 
system, which could result in a fuel tank explosion. Revisions have 
been made to Part 2 ``Airworthiness Limitations List'' of the DHC-8 
Maintenance Program Manuals to introduce the required maintenance 
tasks.
    Revision 1 of this [Canadian] AD was issued to clarify the 
phase-in schedule for tasks FSL-02 and FSL-17.
    Revision 2 of this [Canadian] AD is issued to correct the 
effective date of [Canadian] AD CF-2013-07 [http://www.casa.gov.au/scripts/nc.dll?WCMS:OLDASSET::svPath=/ADFiles/over/dhc-8/,svFileName=CF-2013-07.pdf] referenced in Part III of the Corrective 
Actions and to clarify the revised phase-in schedules in Part II and 
Part III of the Corrective Actions.

    You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FAA-2014-0570-0002.

Comments

    We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing 
this AD. We received no comments on the NPRM (79 FR 48703, August 18, 
2014) or on the determination of the cost to the public.

Changes to This Final Rule

    Since the NPRM (79 FR 48703, August 18, 2014) was published, the 
information in Bombardier Temporary Revision (TR) AWL-110, dated August 
31, 2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations List,'' of the 
Bombardier Dash 8 Series 100 Maintenance Program Manual, Product 
Support Manual PSM 1-8-7, has been merged in Subject 5-FSL of Section 
5, ``Fuel System Limitations,'' of the ``Airworthiness Limitations 
List,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 100 Maintenance Program Manual, 
PSM 1-8-7, Revision 18, dated February 23, 2012. We have removed 
paragraph (g)(1) of the proposed AD that referred to Bombardier TR AWL-
110, dated August 31, 2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations 
List,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 100 Maintenance Program Manual, 
Product Support Manual PSM 1-8-7, and we have redesignated paragraph 
(g)(2) of the proposed AD as paragraph (g)(1) of this AD. We have also 
added new paragraph (g)(5) of this AD to refer to Subject 5-FSL of 
Section 5, ``Fuel System Limitations,'' of the ``Airworthiness 
Limitations List,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 100 Maintenance 
Program Manual, PSM 1-8-7, Revision 18, dated February 23, 2012.
    We have included a new paragraph (j) in this AD to provide credit 
for accomplishing the revision to the maintenance or inspection 
program, as

[[Page 42374]]

applicable, to incorporate new limitations for fuel tank systems before 
the effective date of this AD using Bombardier TR AWL-110, dated August 
31, 2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations List,'' of the 
Bombardier Dash 8 Series 100 Maintenance Program Manual, Product 
Support Manual PSM 1-8-7. The subsequent paragraphs have been 
redesignated accordingly.
    Since the NPRM (79 FR 48703, August 18, 2014) was published, we 
also received Bombardier TR AWL 2-47, dated February 16, 2011, to Part 
2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 200 
Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-82-7, which supersedes Bombardier TR 
AWL 2-43, dated August 31, 2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness 
Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 200 Maintenance Program 
Manual, PSM 1-82-7. We have added paragraph (g)(2) of this AD to refer 
to Bombardier TR AWL 2-47, dated February 16, 2011, to Part 2, 
``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 Series 200 
Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-82-7, as an appropriate source of 
service information to accomplish the revision required by paragraph 
(g) of this AD.
    Furthermore, we also received Bombardier TR AWL 3-117, dated 
February 16, 2011, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the 
Bombardier Dash 8 Series 300 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-83-7, 
which supersedes Bombardier TR AWL 3-109, dated August 31, 2007, to 
Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of Bombardier Dash 8 Series 300 
Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-83-7. We have added paragraph (g)(4) 
of this AD to refer to Bombardier TR AWL 3-117, dated February 16, 
2011, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 
8 Series 300 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-83-7, as an appropriate 
source of service information to accomplish the revision required by 
paragraph (g) of this AD.

Conclusion

    We reviewed the relevant data and determined that air safety and 
the public interest require adopting this AD with the changes described 
previously and minor editorial changes. We have determined that these 
minor changes:
     Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the 
NPRM (79 FR 48703, August 18, 2014) for correcting the unsafe 
condition; and
     Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was 
already proposed in the NPRM (79 FR 48703, August 18, 2014).

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Bombardier, Inc. has issued the following service information:
     Bombardier Temporary Revision AWL 2-43, dated August 31, 
2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 
8 Series 200 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-82-7.
     Bombardier Temporary Revision AWL 2-47, dated February 16, 
2011, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 
8 Series 200 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-82-7.
     Bombardier Temporary Revision AWL 3-109, dated August 31, 
2007, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier Dash 
8 Series 300 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-83-7.
     Bombardier Temporary Revision AWL 3-117, dated February 
16, 2011, to Part 2, ``Airworthiness Limitations,'' of the Bombardier 
Dash 8 Series 300 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-83-7.
     Subject 5-FSL of Section 5, ``Fuel System Limitations,'' 
of the ``Airworthiness Limitations List,'' of the Bombardier Dash 8 
Series 100 Maintenance Program Manual, PSM 1-8-7, Revision 18, dated 
February 23, 2012.
    The service information describes revising the maintenance or 
inspection program to incorporate new limitations for fuel tank 
systems. This service information 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 of this 
AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 122 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We also estimate that it will take about 1 work-hour per product to 
comply with the basic requirements of this AD. The average labor rate 
is $85 per work-hour. Based on these figures, we estimate the cost of 
this AD on U.S. operators to be $10,370, 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 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 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.

Examining the AD Docket

    You may examine the AD docket on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=FAA-2014-0570; or in person at the 
Docket Management Facility between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through 
Friday, except Federal holidays. The AD docket contains this AD, the 
regulatory evaluation, any comments received, and other information.
