Models AT-501, AT-502, and AT-502A Airplanes ACTION:
Final rule; request for comments. SUMMARY: This document publishes in the **Federal Register** an amendment adopting emergency Airworthiness Directive
(AD)2000-14-51. The Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA)previously sent emergency AD 2000-14-51 to all known U.S. owners and operators of Air Tractor Models AT-501, AT-502, and AT-502A airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the wing lower spar cap for cracks and modify or replace any cracked lower spar cap. This AD is the result of an accident report of an Air Tractor Model AT-502A airplane where the wing separated in flight. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct fatigue cracks in the wing lower spar cap, which could result in an in-flight separation of the wing from the airplane. DATES: The AD becomes effective August 4, 2000, to all affected persons who did not receive emergency AD 2000-14-51, issued July 3, 2000. Emergency AD 2000-14-51 contained the requirements of this amendment and became effective immediately upon receipt. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulation as of August 4, 2000. The FAA must receive any comments on this rule on or before September 15, 2000. ADDRESSES: Submit comments in triplicate to FAA, Central Region, Office of the Regional Counsel, Attention: Rules Docket No. 2000-CE-40-AD, 901 Locust, Room 506, Kansas City, Missouri 64106. You may read comments and information related to this AD at this location between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, except holidays. You may get the service information referenced in this AD from Air Tractor, Incorporated, P.O. Box 485, Olney, Texas 76374. You may examine this information at FAA, Central Region, Office of the Regional Counsel, Attention: Rules Docket No. 2000-CE-40-AD, 901 Locust, Room 506, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; or at the Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW, suite 700, Washington, DC.

(817)222-5960. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion What Has Happened So Far? The FAA has received a report of an accident of an Air Tractor Model AT-502A airplane where the wing separated in flight. Investigation revealed that the wing lower spar cap was cracked at the wing center splice connection. We surveyed the Air Tractor Models AT-501, AT-502, and AT-502A airplane fleet and discovered 2 other airplanes that have had similar cracks in the lower spar caps. On July 3, 2000, we issued emergency AD 2000-14-51. This AD directed the following: —Repetitively inspect each wing lower spar cap for cracks; and —Modify or replace any cracked lower spar cap, as specified in the service information. Accomplishment of this action is required in accordance with the procedures in Snow Engineering Co. Service Letter #197, dated June 13, 2000. Why Is It Important To Publish This AD? The FAA found that immediate corrective action was required, notice and opportunity for prior public comment were impracticable and contrary to the public interest, and good cause existed to make the AD effective immediately by individual letters issued on July 3, 2000, to all known U.S. operators of Air Tractor, Inc. Models AT-501, AT-502, and AT-502A airplanes. These conditions still exist, and the AD is published in the **Federal Register** as an amendment to section 39.13 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 39.13) to make it effective as to all persons. Comments Invited How Do I Comment on This AD? Although this action is in the form of a final rule and was not preceded by notice and opportunity for public comment, FAA invites comments on this rule. You may submit whatever written data, views, or arguments you choose. You need to include the rule's docket number and submit your comments in triplicate to the address specified under the caption ADDRESSES . We will consider all comments received on or before the closing date specified above. We may amend this rule in light of comments received. How Can We Communicate More Clearly With You? The FAA is reviewing the writing style we currently use in regulatory documents, in response to the Presidential memorandum of June 1, 1998. That memorandum requires federal agencies to communicate more clearly with the public. We are interested in your comments on the ease of understanding this document, and any other suggestions you might have to improve the clarity of FAA communications that affect you. You can get more information about the Presidential memorandum and the plain language initiative at *http://www.faa.gov/language/.* The FAA specifically invites comments on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects of the rule that might suggest a need to modify the rule. You may examine all comments we receive in the Rules Docket. We will file a report in the Rules Docket that summarizes each FAA contact with the public that concerns the substantive parts of this AD. How Can I Be Sure the FAA Receives My Comment? If you want us to acknowledge the receipt of your comments, you must include a self-addressed, stamped postcard. On the postcard, write “Comments to Docket No. 2000-CE-40-AD.” We will date stamp and mail the postcard back to you. Regulatory Impact How Does This AD Impact Relations Between Federal and State governments? These regulations 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. The FAA has determined that this final rule does not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. How Does This Action Involve an Emergency Situation? The FAA determined that this is an emergency regulation that must be issued immediately to correct an unsafe condition in aircraft, and is not a significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866. This action involves an emergency regulation under Department of Transportation
(DOT)Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979). The FAA will prepare a final regulatory evaluation if we determine that this emergency regulation is significant under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures. You may obtain a copy of the evaluation (if required) from the Rules Docket. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety. Adoption of the Amendment Under the authority delegated to me by the Administrator, the Federal Aviation Administration
