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 
it to the address identified in paragraph (k) of this AD or email 
to: <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#3c05117d6a6f117d756e110b0f0c117d71737f7c5a5d5d125b534a"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5b62761a0d08761a1209766c686b761a1614181b3d3a3a753c342d">[email protected]</span></a>. If mailing information, also submit

the manager of the local Flight Standards District Office/
certificate holding district office.
