SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
AD 2023-21-06, Amendment 39-22578 (88 FR 76114, November 6, 2023)
(AD 2023-21-06), requires installing structural reinforcements on
certain monuments and replacing certain floor support rivets, as
specified in ANAC AD 2023-05-03, effective June 2, 2023 (ANAC AD 2023-
05-03), for certain Embraer Model EMB-505 airplanes.
Need for Correction
As published, two references to the ANAC AD in the preamble
Background section of AD 2023-21-06 are incorrect. The Background
section refers to the ANAC AD as ``ANAC AD 2023-04-01'' in two places.
The correct reference is ``ANAC AD 2023-05-03.''
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
ANAC AD 2023-05-03 specifies procedures for installing structural
reinforcements on certain monuments and replacing applicable fasteners
on the floor support.
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 ADDRESSES.
Correction of Publication
This document corrects two errors and correctly adds the AD as an
amendment to 14 CFR 39.13. Although no other part of the preamble or
regulatory information has been corrected, the FAA is publishing the
entire rule in the Federal Register.
The effective date of this AD remains December 11, 2023.
Since this action only corrects two incorrect references to an ANAC
AD in the preamble Background section, it has no adverse economic
impact and imposes no additional burden on any person. Therefore, the
FAA has determined that notice and public comment procedures are
unnecessary.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.
The Amendment
Accordingly, under the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the FAA amends 14 CFR part 39 as follows:
PART 39--AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES
0
1. The authority citation for part 39 continues to read as follows:
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.
Sec. 39.13 [Corrected]
0
2. The FAA amends Sec. 39.13 by adding the following new airworthiness
directive:
2023-21-06 Embraer S.A.: Amendment 39-22578; Docket No. FAA-2023-
1717; Project Identifier MCAI-2023-00728-A.
(a) Effective Date
This airworthiness directive (AD) is effective December 11,
2023.
(b) Affected ADs
None.
(c) Applicability
This AD applies to Embraer S.A. Model EMB-505 airplanes, as
identified in Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil
(ANAC) AD 2023-05-03, effective June 2, 2023 (ANAC AD 2023-05-03),
certificated in any category.
[[Page 85094]]
(d) Subject
Joint Aircraft System Component (JASC) Code 2500, Cabin
Equipment/Furnishings.
(e) Unsafe Condition
This AD was prompted by analysis of certain monuments (the
right-hand refreshment center and left-hand forward cabinet) that
identified the need for installing structural reinforcements and
replacing applicable floor support rivets. The FAA is issuing this
AD to address the unsafe condition. The unsafe condition, if not
addressed, could result in a monument not withstanding the loads
expected for specific emergency landing conditions, which may cause
the detachment of mass items and result in injuries to the airplane
occupants.
(f) Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified,
unless already done.
(g) Required Actions
Except as specified in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD: Comply
with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in
accordance with, ANAC AD 2023-05-03.
(h) Exceptions to ANAC AD 2023-05-03
(1) Where ANAC AD 2023-05-03 refers to its effective date, this
AD requires using the effective date of this AD.
(2) The service information referenced in ANAC AD 2023-05-03
allows the use of alternative or similar parts in place of the ones
specified in the kits, provided that these alternative or similar
parts are approved by Embraer. This AD requires approval from either
the Manager, International Validation Branch, FAA; ANAC; or ANAC's
authorized Designee. If approved by the ANAC Designee, the approval
must include the Designee's authorized signature.
(3) Where the service information referenced in ANAC AD 2023-05-
03 specifies discarding parts, this AD requires removing those parts
from service.
(4) This AD does not adopt paragraph (d) of ANAC AD 2023-05-03.
(i) No Reporting Requirement
Although the service information referenced in ANAC AD 2023-05-
03 specifies to submit certain information to the manufacturer, this
AD does not include that requirement.
(j) 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 local Flight
Standards District Office, as appropriate. If sending information
directly to the manager of the International Validation Branch, mail
