#  Enhanced Airworthiness Program for Airplane Systems/Fuel Tank Safety (EAPAS/FTS); Technical Correction

**AGENCY:**

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

**ACTION:**

Final rule; technical correction.

**SUMMARY:**

This final rule corrects a subpart heading in the Code of Federal Regulations. The heading was inadvertently misstated when the FAA published the rule in November 2007.

**EFFECTIVE DATE:**

This final rule is effective August 15, 2008.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Annette K. Kovite, ANM-113, Standardization Branch, Federal Aviation Administration, 1601 Lind Avenue, SW., Renton, WA 98057, telephone: 425-227-1262, facsimile: 425-227-1320, e-mail: *[email protected].*

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

**Background**

On November 8, 2007, the FAA published a final rule to establish part 26 in the Code of Federal Regulations (72 FR 63364). The heading for subpart B of that part contained the phrase “aging systems” instead of the intended “airplane systems.” This final rule corrects that error.

**Justification for Immediate Adoption**

Because this action corrects merely a typographical error, the FAA finds that notice and public comment under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary. For the same reason, the FAA finds that good cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making this rule effective upon publication.

**List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 26**

Aircraft, Aviation safety, Continued airworthiness.

**14 CFR Part 26**

In consideration of the foregoing, the Federal Aviation Administration amends Chapter I of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations part 26 as follows:

**PART 26—CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS AND SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRANSPORT CATEGORY AIRPLANES**

1. The authority citation for part 26 continues to read as follows:

**Authority:**

49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701, 44702 and 44704.

**14 CFR Part 26**

**Subpart B—Enhanced Airworthiness Program for Airplane Systems**

2. The heading for subpart B is revised to read as set forth above.

Issued in Washington, DC,  on August 11, 2008.

Director, Office of Rulemaking, Aviation Safety.
