Register published on April 11, 2000 (65 FR 19477-78) or you may visit
http://dms.dot.gov.
The purpose behind an IRFA is to notify small businesses of a
rulemaking activity that, if finalized, may adversely affect a
substantial number of small businesses. If a rulemaking is likely to
have such an impact, we are required to identify alternatives that may
reduce this impact. To adequately explore these alternatives, we need
the input of those small businesses. Accordingly, we will consider all
comments we receive on or before the closing date for comments.
However, your comments should be limited to the IRFA since the comment
period on the NPRM has closed. We will consider comments filed late if
it is possible to do so without incurring expense or delay. We may
change our proposal in light of the comments we receive.
If you want the FAA to acknowledge receipt of your comments,
include with your comments a pre-addressed, stamped postcard on which
the docket number appears. We will stamp the date on the postcard and
mail it to you.
Proprietary or Confidential Business Information

proprietary or confidential business information. Send or deliver this
information directly to the person identified in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document. You must mark the
information that you consider proprietary or confidential. If you send
the information on a disk or CD-ROM, mark the outside of the disk or
CD-ROM and also identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is proprietary or confidential.
Under 14 CFR 11.35(b), when we are aware of proprietary information
filed with a comment, we do not place it in the docket. We hold it in a
separate file to which the public does not have access, and place a
note in the docket that we have received it. If we receive a request to

Discussion
On October 5, 2006, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) entitled, Production and
Airworthiness Approvals, Parts Marking, and Miscellaneous Proposals (71
FR 58915). The extended comment period for this NPRM closed on February
5, 2007.
The Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy has asked
us, on behalf of small businesses that may be adversely affected by the
proposed rulemaking, to allow additional time for small businesses to
comment on the Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis associated with
the NPRM.\1\ The analysis examines whether the proposed rulemaking
would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. We have determined that the additional comment period
is consistent with the public interest and that good cause exists for
taking this action. Accordingly, we are establishing an additional 45-
day comment period on the Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ This analysis can also be found in the FAA's Initial
Regulatory Evaluation, docket FAA-2006-25877-19.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA) establishes ``as a
principle of regulatory issuance that agencies shall endeavor,
consistent with the objective of the rule and of applicable statutes,
to fit regulatory and informational requirements to the scale of the
business, organizations, and governmental jurisdictions subject to
regulation.'' To achieve that principle, the Act requires agencies to
solicit and consider flexible regulatory proposals and to explain the
rationale for their actions. The Act covers a wide range of small
entities, including small businesses, not-for-profit organizations and
small governmental jurisdictions.
Agencies must perform a review to determine whether a proposed or
final rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. If the determination is that it would, the
agency must prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis as described in
the Act.
However, if an agency determines that a proposed or final rule is
not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities, section 605(b) of the RFA provides that the
head of the agency may so certify and a regulatory flexibility analysis
is not required. The certification must include a statement providing
the factual basis for this determination, and the reasoning should be
clear.
The FAA used the Small Business Administration (SBA) guideline of
1,500 employees or less per firm as the criterion for the determination
of a small business in aircraft manufacturing. The FAA also used the
SBA guideline of 1,000 employees or less per firm as the criterion for
the determination of a small business in aircraft engine and engine
parts manufacturing, and/or other aircraft part and auxiliary equipment
manufacturing.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ 13 CFR 121.201, Size Standards Used to Define Small Business
Concerns, Sectors 31-33 Manufacturing, Subsector 336 Transportation
Equipment Manufacturing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to determine if the proposed rule will have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, lists of all
U.S. aircraft, aircraft engine, and other aircraft part and auxiliary
equipment manufacturers was generated by the FAA Aircraft Certification
Directorate Offices. Because the list was organized by the type of
production approval, a firm could be listed more than once (e.g., a
firm could hold a TSO authorization as well as a PMA). There are close
to 2,000 records on this list.
From the lists of manufacturers supplied by the Rotorcraft
Directorate (ASW) and the Small Airplane Directorate (ACE), the FAA
took a 10% sample of firms that had already been identified as small
entities by the Directorates (or 78 firms). From the lists of
manufacturers supplied by the Transport Airplane Directorate (ANM) and
the Engine and Propeller Directorate (ANE), the FAA took a 10% sample
of all firms (or 109 firms) because those two Directorates had not
identified the firms that were small entities. Hence, the FAA used a
sample of 187 firms (or approximately 10%) for the analysis.
Using information provided by the ReferenceUSA Business Database,
company annual reports, and SEC filings, all businesses with more than
1,500 employees for aircraft manufacturer and 1,000 employees for other
manufacturers, and subsidiaries of larger businesses, were excluded
from the list of small businesses. An example of a subsidiary business
is Bell Helicopter, which is a subsidiary of Textron, Inc. For the
remaining businesses, the FAA obtained company revenue information from
these three sources, when the revenue was made public.
By applying this methodology to the 10% sample, the FAA verified
that 109 firms are small entities, 32 firms are large businesses or
subsidiaries of large businesses or consortiums, and 46 firms could not
be found in the database and/or had no revenue information available.
Among the 109 verified small entities, 5 are small PCs, 19 are small
TSO authorization holders, and 85 are small PMAs.
The FAA estimates that the average discounted compliance cost for a
small PC is approximately $582,000, for a small TSO authorization
holder is approximately $52,000, and for a small PMA is approximately
$15,000. (Refer to Appendix E.) The annualized cost for a small PC is
estimated at $82,881 ($582,120 * 0.142378 = $82,881), for a small TSO
authorization holder is estimated at $7,342 ($51,566 * 0.142378 =
$7,342), and for a small PMA is estimated at $2,153 ($15,125 * 0.142378
= $2,153).
The degree to which small manufacturers can ``afford'' the cost of
compliance is determined by the availability of financial resources.
The initial implementation costs of the proposed rule may be financed,
paid for using existing company assets, or borrowed. As a proxy for the
firm's ability to afford the cost of compliance, the FAA calculated the
ratio of the total annualized cost of the proposed rule as a percentage
of annual revenue. This ratio is a conservative measure as the
annualized value of the 10-year total compliance cost is divided by one
year of annual revenue. Appendix F shows that one of the small
businesses sampled would incur costs greater than 1 percent of their
annual revenue. Since this is based on a 10% sample, approximately 10
small businesses would incur costs greater than 1 percent of their
annual revenue.
Thus, the FAA believes that approximately 10 small entities would
incur a substantial economic impact in the form of higher annual costs
as a result of this proposed rule. Therefore,
[[Page 6970]]
the FAA thinks that the rule may have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities. However, the FAA does not think
that the implementation of this proposed regulation would cause any of
these companies to become bankrupt.
Questions to be addressed in an Initial Regulatory Flexibility
Analysis (IRFA):
1. Which small entities will be impacted most? PC holders and TSO
authorization holders. Should the definition of ``small entity'' be
redefined for purposes of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA)?
No.
2. Are all the required elements of an IRFA present, particularly a
description of all compliance requirements, and a clear explanation of
the need for and objectives of the rule? Yes. This Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) proposed rule would make various changes in
design, production, and identification regulations for products and
parts. These proposed changes include establishing a single set of
quality system requirements applicable to all production approval
holders as well as requiring an airworthiness approval document to be
issued with all products and parts shipments from a production approval
holder. The proposed rule would also revise aircraft parts marking
requirements. For additional information, refer to the Regulatory
Evaluation for a description of all compliance requirements and further
explanations of the need for and objectives of the rule.
3. Have all major cost factors been developed and analyzed? Yes.
Refer to Appendix E for the cost factors for a small entity by type of
production approval.
4. What alternatives will allow the agency to accomplish its
regulatory objectives while minimizing the impact on small entities?
Alternative 1: No Action.
This alternative would have no impact on small entities. The FAA
decided to discard this alternative because it would not enhance
safety. Among other things, the FAA proposes to enhance safety by (1)
establishing a single set of quality system requirements applicable to
all production approval holders, (2) requiring an airworthiness
approval document to be issued with all products and parts shipments
from a production approval holder, and (3) revising aircraft parts
marking requirements.
Alternative 2: Partial Proposed Rule.
The partial proposed rule would be the complete proposed rule with
the exception of the requirement for airworthiness approval tags (Form
8130-3) with all part or product sales/shipments. This requirement is
the most costly proposal for the manufacturers. If this were not
included in the proposed rule, then there would not be a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Alternative 3: Complete Proposed Rule.
The complete proposed rule is more costly for small entities, but
the FAA recommends proceeding with the complete proposed rule instead
of Alternative 2 for several reasons.
The Form 8130-3 is the recognized industry standard
document that provides legal proof that the part was produced by an
FAA-approved source and is airworthy. Use of the Form in this way
parallels what is done in Europe with the EASA Form One.
A common, easily recognizable Form is needed with all new
parts shipments so that the receiver can easily verify the
airworthiness of the part and authority of the producer.
Most non-US aviation agencies demand a completed Form
8130-3 for parts imported into their country. The FAA recommends it for
domestic use also because it makes sense to use a common form for all
shipments, rather than different forms for domestic versus export
shipments.
Legal enforcement for misuse--since the 8130-3 is a
Federal form, misuse of the Form is a Federal offense.
5. Competitiveness Analysis:
This rule is a comprehensive rule that impacts all production
approval holders including PC holders, TSO authorization holders, and
PMA holders. This covers a wide variety of businesses (e.g., balloons,
gliders, helicopters, small airplanes, large transport category
airplanes, engine manufacturers, propeller manufacturers, seat belt
manufacturers, seat manufacturers, and so forth). Market share within
the industry probably would not change due to this proposed regulation,
and the industry itself would not lose market share to other products
or services.
6. Business closure analysis:
The FAA thinks that there would not be any small businesses that
close due to the proposed regulation because there were only about 10
companies that would have costs that exceed one percent of revenues,
more specifically, their costs would be approximately 1.1% of revenues.
The FAA estimates that these costs are not high enough to force
companies into bankruptcy.
7. Disproportionality Analysis:
The table below shows the differences in the impacts on small
businesses as compared to large ones.

Large PCs appear to have lower costs on these requirements because
the requirements are already current practice. Large TSOAs and large
PMAs have higher costs on these requirements compared to their
respective smaller entities. The FAA estimates that there would be no
significant change in market share due to this proposed regulation.
