prior notice and comment. Because the FAA has determined that it has good cause to adopt this rule without prior notice and comment, RFA analysis is not required.
Costs of Compliance The FAA estimates that this AD
affects up to 64 helicopters of U.S.
Registry. Labor rates are estimated at $85 per work-hour. Based on these numbers, the FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this AD.
Inspecting the rivets and local structure takes about 0.5 work-hour for an estimated cost of about $43 per helicopter and up to $2,752 for the U.S.
fleet, per inspection cycle. Removing the Teflon tape and inspecting the rivet heads takes about 0.5 work-hour for an estimated cost of about $43 per helicopter and up to $2,752 for the U.S.
fleet, per inspection cycle.
Replacing a rivet takes about 0.5
work-hour and parts cost up to $20 for an estimated cost of up to $63 per rivet.
The FAA has received no definitive data on which to base the cost estimates for other on-condition repairs specified in this AD. Reporting information takes about 1 work-hour for an estimated cost of $85 per instance.

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

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, I certify that this AD:
