Background AD 2024–05–05 requires accomplishing a functional check of an affected part, replacing an affected part if necessary, and reporting the functional check results, and prohibits the installation of affected parts. That PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 22333 AD applies to all ATR—GIE Avions de Transport Re´gional Model ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes. Need for the Correction As published, the effective, incorporation by reference approval, and comment submittal dates specified in the preamble of the preceding correction to AD 2024–05–05 are incorrect. The correct effective and incorporation by reference approval date is March 29, 2024. The correct date for submitting comments is April 29, 2024. Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51 EASA Emergency AD 2024–0044–E specifies the following procedures: • Accomplishing a functional check of an affected part. • Replacing an affected part with a serviceable part, if any discrepancy is detected during the functional check. (A discrepancy is any amount of air that flows through either connector of the right engine extinguishing system when compressed air is passed through either connector of the left engine extinguishing system, and vice versa.) • Reporting inspection (i.e., functional check) results to the airplane manufacturer. • Prohibiting the installation of affected parts. 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 the ADDRESSES section. Correction of Publication This document corrects errors in the preceding correction to AD 2024–05–05 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 29, 2024. Since this action only corrects the preceding correction for AD 2024–05– 05, 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.

March 26, 2024 (89 FR 20849)) (AD 2024-05-05).

Background

    AD 2024-05-05 requires accomplishing a functional check of an 
affected part, replacing an affected part if necessary, and reporting 
the functional check results, and prohibits the installation of 
affected parts. That AD applies to all ATR--GIE Avions de Transport 
R[eacute]gional Model ATR42 and ATR72 airplanes.

Need for the Correction

    As published, the effective, incorporation by reference approval, 
and comment submittal dates specified in the preamble of the preceding 
correction to AD 2024-05-05 are incorrect. The correct effective and 
incorporation by reference approval date is March 29, 2024. The correct 
date for submitting comments is April 29, 2024.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    EASA Emergency AD 2024-0044-E specifies the following procedures:
     Accomplishing a functional check of an affected part.
     Replacing an affected part with a serviceable part, if any 
discrepancy is detected during the functional check. (A discrepancy is 
any amount of air that flows through either connector of the right 
engine extinguishing system when compressed air is passed through 
either connector of the left engine extinguishing system, and vice 
versa.)
     Reporting inspection (i.e., functional check) results to 
the airplane manufacturer.
     Prohibiting the installation of affected parts.
    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 the ADDRESSES section.

Correction of Publication

    This document corrects errors in the preceding correction to AD 
2024-05-05 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 29, 2024.
    Since this action only corrects the preceding correction for AD 
2024-05-05, 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.
