Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 103 / Tuesday, June 1, 2021 / Proposed Rules
following costs to comply with this proposed AD:

ESTIMATED COSTS FOR REQUIRED ACTIONS
Action
Labor cost Up to 6 work-hours $85 per hour = $510

New proposed actions

Cost per product
Parts cost $0

Up to $510

Cost on U.S.
operators Up to $14,280.

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 proposed 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 $2,380, 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 helicopters that might need these on-condition actions:

ESTIMATED COSTS OF ON-CONDITION ACTIONS
Labor cost
Parts cost
Cost per product
40 work-hours $85 per hour = $3,400

$295,000

$298,400

According to the manufacturer, some or all of the costs of this proposed AD
may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected operators. The FAA does not control warranty coverage for affected operators.
As a result, the FAA has included all known costs in the cost estimate.
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 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 control number for the collection of information required by this proposed AD is 2120
0056. The paperwork cost associated with this proposed AD has been detailed in the Costs of Compliance section of this document and includes time for reviewing instructions, as well as completing and reviewing the collection of information. Therefore, all reporting associated with this proposed AD is mandatory. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden and suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to Information Collection Clearance Officer, Federal Aviation Administration, 10101
Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX

Authority for This Rulemaking Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAAs authority to issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of

Jkt 253001

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII:
Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the Agencys 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.
