Examining the AD Docket
Need for the Correction
As published, paragraph (h)(2) of AD
2020–02–19 contains a typographical
error. Paragraph (h)(2) of the AD
incorrectly specifies Bombardier CL–

Adoption of the Correction
Bombardier has issued Bombardier
CL–600–2B19 Temporary Revision 2B–
2265, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix
B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2
of the Bombardier Maintenance
Requirements Manual; and Bombardier
CL–600–2B19 Temporary Revision 2B–
2266, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix
B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2
of the Bombardier Maintenance
Requirements Manual. These temporary
revisions describe airworthiness
limitations for inspections of the
pressure floor skin. This service
information is reasonably available
because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course
of business or by the means identified
in the ADDRESSES section.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
Since this action only corrects a
service information reference for the
inspection, it has no adverse economic
impact and imposes no additional
burden on any person. Therefore, the
FAA has determined that notice and
public procedures are unnecessary.
Accordingly, pursuant to the
authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the Federal Aviation
Administration amends part 39 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR
part 39) as follows:
PART 39—AIRWORTHINESS
DIRECTIVES
1. The authority citation for part 39
continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701.
§ 39.13
[Corrected]
2. The FAA amends § 39.13 by adding
the following new airworthiness
directive (AD):
■
2020–02–19 Bombardier, Inc.: Amendment
39–19831; Docket No. FAA–2019–0720;

Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone for
the navigable waters of Hilo Harbor,
Hawaii. The safety zone is needed to
protect personnel, vessels and the
marine environment from potential
hazards associated with ongoing
lightering operations of the vessel
MIDWAY ISLAND grounded along the
northwest side of Hilo Harbor,
particularly through helicopter to shore
hoisting ops and swimmers in the water.
The USCG is overseeing contractor
lightering ops to mitigate the pollution
threat from the vessel in this area. Entry
of vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port
(COTP) Honolulu.
DATES: This rule is effective without
actual notice from February 26, 2020
until 8 p.m. on March 12, 2020. For the
purposes of enforcement, actual notice
will be used from February 12, 2020

§—Section
U.S.C.—United States Code
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
On February 05, 2020, a temporary
final rule [USCG–2020–0113] was
issued to establish a safety zone around
the grounded vessel MIDWAY ISLAND.
That rule expired at 8 p.m. on February
12, 2020. The Coast Guard is issuing
this rule to establish the termporary
safety zone so the lightering operations
can continue.
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment pursuant to
authority under section 4(a) of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because
immediate action is needed to respond
to the potential safety hazards
associated with this lightering
operation, and therefore publishing an
NPRM is impracticable and contrary to
public interest.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. Delaying the effective date
would be contrary to the rule’s
objectives of responding to potential
safety hazards associated with the
lightering operations and protecting
personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment within the navigable
waters of the safety zone.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AD 2020-02-19, Amendment 39-19831 (85 FR
7857, February 12, 2020) (``AD 2020-02-19''), currently requires
revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable,
to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations;
revising the applicability to include additional airplanes; and
revising certain compliance times. That AD applies to certain
Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet series 100 & 440)
airplanes.
Need for the Correction
As published, paragraph (h)(2) of AD 2020-02-19 contains a
typographical error. Paragraph (h)(2) of the AD incorrectly specifies
Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Airworthiness Requirements Temporary Revision
2B-2265, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B--
[[Page 10979]]
Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance
Requirements Manual, for performing the inspection. The correct service
information for performing the inspection is Bombardier CL-600-2B19
Maintenance Requirements Temporary Revision 2B-2266, dated July 19,
2018, to Appendix B--Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the
Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51
Bombardier has issued Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Temporary Revision 2B-
2265, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B--Airworthiness Limitations, of
Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual; and
Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Temporary Revision 2B-2266, dated July 19, 2018,
to Appendix B--Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier
Maintenance Requirements Manual. These temporary revisions describe
airworthiness limitations for inspections of the pressure floor skin.
This service information is reasonably available because the interested
parties have access to it through their normal course of business or by
the means identified in the ADDRESSES section.
Correction of Publication
This document corrects an error 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 March 18, 2020.
Since this action only corrects a service information reference for
the inspection, it has no adverse economic impact and imposes no
additional burden on any person. Therefore, the FAA has determined that
notice and public procedures are unnecessary.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39
Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by
reference, Safety.
Adoption of the Correction
Accordingly, pursuant to the authority delegated to me by the
Administrator, the Federal Aviation Administration amends part 39 of
the Federal Aviation Regulations (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 (AD):
2020-02-19 Bombardier, Inc.: Amendment 39-19831; Docket No. FAA-
2019-0720; Product Identifier 2019-NM-117-AD.
