SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the European Union, has issued EASA AD
2018-0259R1, dated February 7, 2019 (``EASA AD 2018-0259R1'') (also
referred to as the Mandatory Continuing Airworthiness Information, or
``the MCAI''), to correct an unsafe condition for the following

Fokker service information:

700, 701 & 702) airplanes.
Bombardier, Inc., Model DHC-8-202, -311, -315 and -402
airplanes.
The FAA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14
CFR part 39 by adding an AD that would apply to various transport
airplanes. The NPRM published in the Federal Register on June 24, 2019
(84 FR 29414). The NPRM was prompted by reports of smoke and fumes in
the flight deck due to overheating of an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB)
USB receptacle. The NPRM proposed to require modification of certain
USB receptacles located in the flight deck.
The FAA is issuing this AD to address smoke and fumes in the flight
deck, which could result in excessive flightcrew workload and injury to
flight deck occupants. 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.

Support for the NPRM

The Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA) indicated its
support for the NPRM.

Request To Revise Applicability

NetJets submitted two requests to revise the applicability of the
proposed AD. The commenter's first request was to exclude Bombardier
Model CL-650 airplanes having serial numbers 6071 and subsequent. The
commenter provided a page from the Bombardier Model CL-650 Illustrated
Parts Catalog, which shows that the USB part number delivered on
airplanes with those serial numbers is not the affected USB part number
addressed in the proposed AD. The commenter submitted a subsequent
request asking that all Model CL-650 airplanes be removed from the
applicability of the proposed AD. The commenter stated that it had
conducted additional research and provided a list of airplane models
that have the affected USB part installed that was created by Fokker
and only one Bombardier Model CL-650 airplane, having serial number (S/
N) 5651, has the affected part installed.
The FAA acknowledges the commenter's observation that a limited
number of Bombardier Model CL-650 airplanes (also known as Challenger
650 airplanes; a marketing designation for the Model CL-600-2B16 (604
Variant) airplanes beginning with S/N 6050 and subsequent) may have the
affected part installed. However, the FAA does not agree with the
commenter's request to revise the applicability of this AD. Since some
of the CL-600-2B16 (604 Variant) airplanes may have the affected part
installed, the requirements of this AD apply to those airplanes. The
FAA has determined that it is the operators' responsibility to conduct
the necessary review to determine if an airplane in its fleet is
affected by the requirements of this AD. This AD applies to the
airplanes identified in figure 1 to paragraph (c) of this AD, having an
affected part (defined in paragraph (g) of this AD) installed as
specified in the applicable service information identified in in figure
1 to paragraph (c) of this AD. The FAA has not revised this AD
regarding this issue.

Request To Allow Records Review

NetJets requested that the proposed AD include a provision to allow
operators to do a records review to determine which airplanes have the
affected USB part installed.
The commenter provided pages from the Bombardier Model CL-650
Illustrated Parts Catalog and pointed out that specific serial numbers
of Bombardier Model CL-650 airplanes were delivered with factory-
installed USB ports and are not affected by the modification specified
in the proposed AD.
The FAA acknowledges the commenter's request. However, while the
manufacturers Illustrated Parts Catalog is a valuable tool for
operators to order replacement parts, it is not an FAA approved
document that identifies an airplane delivered type design
configuration. A records review is one way of determining if the
affected part is installed on an airplane if the review can
conclusively identify the affected part. Paragraph (h) of this AD
requires modification of affected parts; this AD does not specify any
required method for determining that an affected part is installed on
an airplane. Therefore, operators can do an appropriate records review
or they can inspect the airplane to determine if the affected part is
installed. The FAA has not revised this AD regarding this issue.

Request To Include Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) Number

Net Jets requested that the proposed AD include the STC number for
any USB receptacle that was installed on an airplane using the FAA-
approved STC process. The commenter observed that including the STC
number would aid in its research to determine which airplanes in its
fleet would be affected by the requirements specified in the proposed
AD.
The FAA acknowledges the commenter's request. Figure 1 to paragraph
(c) of this AD already includes the applicable STC numbers for USB
receptacles installed using the FAA-approved STC process. Because a USB
receptacle could have been installed using a means other than an STC,
it is the operator's responsibility to conduct the review necessary to
determine if an airplane in its fleet is affected by the requirements
of this AD. The FAA has not revised this AD regarding this issue.

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 as proposed, except for minor
editorial changes. The agency has determined that these minor changes:
Are consistent with the intent that was proposed in the
NPRM for addressing the unsafe condition; and
Do not add any additional burden upon the public than was
already proposed in the NPRM.

Costs of Compliance

The FAA estimates that this AD affects 14 airplanes of U.S.
registry. The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD:

Estimated Costs for Required Actions *

Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators
3 work-hours x $85 per hour = $255 $0 $255 $3,570

* The FAA has received no definitive data on the parts costs for the
required actions.

According to the manufacturer, some or all of the costs of this AD
may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on
affected individuals. The FAA does not control warranty coverage for
affected individuals. As a result, the FAA has included all known costs
in our cost estimate.

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.
This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to transport category airplanes and
associated appliances to the Director of the System Oversight Division.

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.
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.
