Abstract
The FAA is revising a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that would have applied to certain Airbus SAS Model A319-115 airplanes; Model A320-214, -216, -232, -251N, and -271N airplanes; and Model A321- 211, -231, -251N, -251NX, -252NX, -253N, -253NX, -271N, -271NX, and - 272N airplanes. This action revises the NPRM by adding Model A321-213 airplanes, which were inadvertently left out of the applicability. The FAA is proposing this airworthiness directive (AD) to address the unsafe condition on these products. Since these actions would impose an additional burden over those in the NPRM, the FAA is requesting comments on this SNPRM.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is revising a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
that would have applied to certain Airbus SAS Model A319-115 airplanes;
Model A320-214, -216, -232, -251N, and -271N airplanes; and Model A321-
211, -231, -251N, -251NX, -252NX, -253N, -253NX, -271N, -271NX, and -
272N airplanes. This action revises the NPRM by adding Model A321-213
airplanes, which were inadvertently left out of the applicability. The
FAA is proposing this airworthiness directive (AD) to address the
unsafe condition on these products. Since these actions would impose an
additional burden over those in the NPRM, the FAA is requesting
comments on this SNPRM.

Background
The FAA issued AD 2020-05-16, Amendment 39-19866 (85 FR 15938,
March 20, 2020) (AD 2020-05-16) for certain Airbus SAS Model A319-115
airplanes; Model A320-214, -216, -232, -251N, and -271N airplanes; and
Model A321-211, -231, -251N, -251NX, -253N, -271N, -271NX, and -272N
airplanes. AD 2020-05-16 requires a one-time detailed inspection of
certain attaching points on the left-hand and right-hand wings for the
correct installation of certain hardware, and, depending on findings,
accomplishment of applicable corrective actions. The FAA issued AD
2020-05-16 to address incomplete installations of the over wing panel
lug attachments in the production assembly line, which, if not detected
and corrected, could reduce the structural integrity of the wing.
The FAA issued an NPRM to amend 14 CFR part 39 by adding an AD to
supersede AD 2020-05-16 that would apply to certain Airbus SAS Model
A319-115 airplanes; Model A320-214, -216, -232, -251N, and -271N
airplanes; and Model A321-211, -231, -251N, -251NX, -252NX, -253N, -
253NX, -271N, -271NX, and -272N airplanes. The NPRM published in the
Federal Register on January 13, 2023 (88 FR 2273). The NPRM was
prompted by MCAI originated by EASA, which is the Technical Agent for
the Member States of the European Union. EASA issued AD 2022-0111,
dated June 15, 2022 (EASA AD 2022-0111) (also referred to as the MCAI)
to correct an unsafe condition identified as incomplete installations
of the overwing panel lug attachments. The NPRM proposed to continue to
require the actions in AD 2020-05-16 and to revise the applicability by
adding airplanes.
Actions Since the NPRM Was Issued
Since the FAA issued the NPRM, it was determined that although the
serial numbers of the affected airplanes appear in Appendix 1 of EASA
AD 2022-0111, Model A321-213 airplanes were inadvertently left out of
the applicability of EASA AD 2022-0111. EASA has since revised AD 2022-
0111. EASA AD 2022-0111R1, dated July 26, 2023 (EASA AD 2022-0111R1),
was issued because some reports highlighted the omission in the
Applicability of Model A321-213 airplanes, whereas the MSNs relevant to
this model were correctly listed in Appendix 1 of EASA AD 2022-0111
(among Group 1 aeroplanes). Consequently, EASA AD 2022-0111R1 includes
Model A321-213 airplanes in the Applicability. Paragraph (c) of this
proposed AD was therefore revised to include Model A321-213 airplanes
to match the applicability of EASA AD 2022-0111R1.
You may examine the MCAI in the AD docket at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> under
Docket No. FAA-2023-0009.
Comments
The FAA received a comment from Air Line Pilots Association,
International (ALPA) who supported the NPRM without change.
The FAA received additional comments from Delta Air Lines (DAL).
The following presents the comments received on the NPRM and the FAA's
response to each comment.
Request To Add Exception To Correct Reference to Required Procedure
DAL requested that an exception be added to the proposed AD to
change the structural repair manual (SRM) reference specified in
paragraphs C.(2)(b)3.a and C.(4)(b)3.a of the Accomplishment
Instructions of Airbus Service Bulletin A320-57-1234, dated December
13, 2021, from SRM 51-11-13 to SRM 51-11-00. DAL stated that SRM task
51-11-13 details the process for damage reporting, while SRM task 51-
11-00 details the process for classifying damage, which is the required
task.
The FAA does not agree with the requested change because SRM 51-11-
13 references SRM 51-11-00, which includes the damage assessment
procedure. This proposed AD has not been changed regarding this
request.
[[Page 58118]]
Request To Add Exception To Allow Compliance Based on Alternate
Inspection for Certain Airplanes
DAL requested that an exception be added to allow compliance to be
taken for any Group 2 airplanes that have already been inspected using
Airbus Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) A57N012-19 Rev 01, dated
April 18, 2019. DAL stated that the inspection specified in Airbus AOT
A57N012-19 Rev 01, dated April 18, 2019, is identical to the inspection
specified in Airbus Service Bulletin (SB) A320-57-1234, dated December
13, 2021.
The FAA does not agree with this request. If the inspection
procedure provided in Airbus AOT A57N012-19 Rev 01, dated April 18,
2019, is the same as the required procedures in the Airbus SB A320-57-
1234, dated December 13, 2021, then accomplishing its procedure would
be the same as accomplishing procedures of the SB, therefore it meets
the mandatory action requirements of the AD. This proposed AD has not
been changed regarding this request.
Request To Add Compliance Time Grace Period for Certain Airplanes
DAL requested that the proposed AD include a compliance time grace
period of 6 months for the required actions specified in paragraph (2)
of EASA AD 2022-0111 because several airplanes will be immediately out
of compliance on the effective date of the AD. DAL noted that EASA AD
2022-0111 does not include any grace period for Group 2 airplanes and
that operators will require a grace period to update their
documentation and process to show compliance with the FAA AD.
The FAA agrees with changing the requested grace period to prevent
grounding of airplanes that have exceeded the maximum flight hours or
flight cycles. Paragraph (h)(5) of the proposed AD (in the NPRM)
included a 30-day grace period. However, a 6-month grace period would
be necessary to prevent the grounding of the airplanes that have
already exceeded 14,000 flight hours or 7,000 flight cycles, whichever
occurs first. Paragraph (h)(5) of this proposed AD has been changed to
specify a 6-month grace period. (Paragraph (2) of EASA AD 2022-0111R1
does not include a grace period.)
Request To Add a Certain Model to the Applicability
DAL requested that Airbus SAS Model A321-213 airplanes be added to
the applicability of the proposed AD because some of the serial numbers
listed in the appendix of the MCAI are Airbus SAS Model A321-213
airplanes, although that model does not appear in the Applicability
section of the MCAI.
The FAA agrees to add Airbus SAS Model A321-213 airplanes to the
applicability of this proposed AD. As stated previously, EASA AD 2022-
0111R1 was issued to correct the Applicability to include Model A321-
213 airplanes. Therefore, Airbus SAS Model A321-213 airplanes have been
added to paragraph (c) of this proposed AD.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
EASA AD 2022-0111R1 specifies procedures for a one-time detailed
inspection of certain attaching points on the left-hand and right-hand
wings for the correct installation of certain hardware (bolt, nut,
washer, and cotter pin), and, depending on findings, accomplishment of
applicable corrective actions. Corrective actions include installing
missing hardware, properly orienting hardware, and performing a damage
assessment for cracks and deformed parts in the event of missing
hardware, and repair. For certain airplanes, EASA AD 2022-0111R1 also
specifies reporting the inspection results to Airbus. 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.
FAA's Determination
This product has been approved by the aviation authority of another
country and is approved for operation in the United States. Pursuant to
the FAA's bilateral agreement with this State of Design Authority, it
has notified the FAA of the unsafe condition described in the MCAI
referenced above. The FAA is issuing this SNPRM after determining that
the unsafe condition described previously is likely to exist or develop
in other products of the same type design.
Certain changes described above expand the scope of the NPRM. As a
result, it is necessary to reopen the comment period to provide
additional opportunity for the public to comment on this SNPRM.
Proposed AD Requirements in This SNPRM
This proposed AD would retain all requirements of AD 2020-05-16.
This proposed AD would require accomplishing the actions specified in
EASA AD 2022-0111R1 described previously, except for any differences
identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of this proposed AD.
Explanation of Required Compliance Information
In the FAA's ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of the AD
process, the FAA developed a process to use some civil aviation
authority (CAA) ADs as the primary source of information for compliance
with requirements for corresponding FAA ADs. The FAA has been
coordinating this process with manufacturers and CAAs. As a result, the
FAA proposes to incorporate EASA AD 2022-0111R1 by reference in the FAA
final rule. This proposed AD would, therefore, require compliance with
EASA AD 2022-0111R1 in its entirety through that incorporation, except
for any differences identified as exceptions in the regulatory text of
this proposed AD. Using common terms that are the same as the heading
of a particular section in EASA AD 2022-0111R1 does not mean that
operators need comply only with that section. For example, where the AD
requirement refers to ``all required actions and compliance times,''
compliance with this AD requirement is not limited to the section
titled ``Required Action(s) and Compliance Time(s)'' in EASA AD 2022-
0111R1. Service information required by EASA AD 2022-0111R1 for
compliance will be available at <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> under Docket No. FAA-
2023-0009 after the FAA final rule is published.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 131 airplanes of U.S. registry. The FAA estimates the following
costs to comply with this proposed AD:
[[Page 58119]]
Estimated Costs for Required Actions *
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per Cost on U.S.
Labor cost Parts cost product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 work-hours x $85 per hour = $170........................... $0 $170 $22,700
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Table does not include estimated costs for reporting.
The FAA estimates that it would take about 1 work-hour per product
to comply with the reporting requirement in this proposed AD. The
average labor rate is $85 per hour. Based on these figures, the FAA
estimates the cost of reporting the inspection results on U.S.
operators to be up to $11,135, or $85 per product.
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary on-
condition actions that would be required based on the results of any
required actions. The FAA has no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need these on-condition actions:
Estimated Costs of On-Condition Actions
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up to 20 work-hours x $85 per Up to $77,850..... Up to $79,550.
hour = $1,700.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paperwork Reduction Act
A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for
failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of
information displays a current valid OMB Control Number. The OMB
Control Number for this information collection is 2120-0056. Public
reporting for this collection of information is estimated to take
approximately 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. All responses to this collection of
information are mandatory. Send comments regarding this burden estimate
or any other aspect of this collection of information, including
suggestions for reducing this burden, to: Information Collection
Clearance Officer, Federal Aviation Administration, 10101 Hillwood
Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177-1524.
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
The FAA 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) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

time identified therein, accomplish those instructions accordingly''
this AD requires replacing those words with ``or contact Airbus for
approved instructions, and within the compliance time identified
therein, accomplish those instructions accordingly, except if any
cracking is detected, the cracking must be repaired before further
flight using a method approved by the Manager, International
Validation Branch, FAA; or EASA; or Airbus SAS's EASA Design
Organization Approval (DOA). If approved by the DOA, the approval
must include the DOA-authorized signature.''
(4) This AD does not adopt the ``Remarks'' section of EASA AD
2022-0111R1.
(5) Where paragraph (2) of EASA AD specifies a compliance time
of ``before exceeding 14,000 flight hours or 7,000 flight cycles,
whichever occurs first since aeroplane first flight,'' this AD
requires replacing those words with ``before exceeding 14,000 flight
hours or 7,000 flight cycles, whichever occurs first since airplane
first flight; or within 6 months after the effective date of this
AD; whichever occurs later.''
(i) No Reporting Requirement for Certain Airplanes
For Group 1 airplanes, as identified in EASA AD 2022-0111R1,
this AD does not require reporting.
(j) Additional AD Provisions
The following provisions also apply to this AD:
(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager,
International Validation Branch, FAA, has the authority to approve
AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR
39.19. In accordance with 14 CFR 39.19, send your request to your
principal inspector or responsible Flight Standards Office, as
appropriate. If sending information directly to the International
Validation Branch, send it to the attention of the person identified
in paragraph (k) of this AD. Information may be emailed to: <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#487165091e1b6509011a657f7b78650905070b082e2929662f273e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="e1d8cca0b7b2cca0a8b3ccd6d2d1cca0acaea2a1878080cf868e97">[email protected]</span></a>.
(i) Before using any approved AMOC, notify your appropriate
principal inspector, or lacking a principal inspector, the manager
of the responsible Flight Standards Office.
(ii) AMOCs approved previously for AD 2020-05-16 are approved as
AMOCs for the corresponding provisions of EASA AD 2022-0111R1 that
are required by paragraph (g) of this AD.
(2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD
to obtain instructions from a manufacturer, the instructions must be
accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, International
Validation Branch, FAA; or EASA; or Airbus SAS's EASA DOA. If
approved by the DOA, the approval must include the DOA-authorized
signature.
(3) Required for Compliance (RC): Except as required by
paragraph (j)(2) of this AD, if any service information contains
procedures or tests that are identified as RC, those procedures and
tests must be done to comply with this AD; any procedures or tests
that are not identified as RC are recommended. Those procedures and
tests that are not identified as RC may be deviated from using
accepted methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or
inspection program without obtaining approval of an AMOC, provided
the procedures and tests identified as RC can be done and the
airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition. Any
substitutions or changes to procedures or tests identified as RC
