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.
