SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 14, 2020, the FAA issued Special Conditions No. 25-760-
SC, under Docket No. FAA-2019-0329. Those special conditions were 
published in the Federal Register on March 5, 2020, (85 FR 12864). 
Those special conditions pertain to passenger cabins with high wall 
suites (HWS) for The Boeing Company Model 777-9 series airplane, which 
is a derivative of the Model 777-300ER airplane currently approved 
under Type Certificate No. T00001SE.
    A special condition paragraph to that document published with 
incorrect text in condition No. 1. As published, the first special 
conditions paragraph stated that there should be no hazards to a person 
performing a physical search above the high wall suites (e.g., no hot 
surfaces, no sharp edges, and no corners). There are no substantive 
changes to the document as it is apparent that a corner is inherently 
not a hazard in and of itself. However, a sharp corner could be. It is 
evident that the text should have included corner as modified by sharp 
not just corner itself; otherwise all corners would be considered 
hazardous. Therefore, the text should have read: ``The area above each 
HWS must be designed such that there should be no hazards to a person 
performing a physical search above the HWS (e.g., no hot surfaces, no 
sharp edges or corners)'' from the beginning.

Correction

    In Special Conditions No. 25-760-SC, published in the Federal 
Register on March 5, 2020, (85 FR 12864), FR Doc. 2020-03474, on page 
12865, in the second column, correct the first special conditions 
paragraph to read as follows:
    1. The area above each HWS must be designed such that there should 
be no hazards to a person performing a physical search above the HWS 
(e.g., no hot surfaces, no sharp edges or corners).
