SUMMARY: This document corrects a typographical error that appeared in 
airworthiness directive (AD) 2002-16-06 that was published in the 
Federal Register on August 12, 2002 (67 FR 52398). The typographical 
error resulted in specifying an incorrect serial number for the 
auxiliary power unit (APU) exhaust silencer. This AD is applicable to 
certain EMBRAER Model EMB-135 and -145 series airplanes. This AD 
requires determining whether a defective APU exhaust silencer is 
installed on the airplane; and corrective actions, if necessary.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2002-16-06, 
amendment 39-12845, applicable to certain EMBRAER Model EMB-135 and -
145 series airplanes, was published in the Federal Register on August 
12, 2002 (67 FR 52398). That AD requires determining whether a 
defective APU exhaust silencer is installed on the airplane; and 
corrective actions, if necessary.
    As published, paragraph (a) of AD 2002-16-06 incorrectly specifies 
serial number M01-0327 through ``N01-0336.'' The correct serial number 
is M01-0327 through ``M01-0336.''
    Since no other part of the regulatory information has been changed, 
the final rule is not being republished in the Federal Register.
    The effective date of this AD remains August 27, 2002.
