14 CFR Part 91

Removal of an Obsolete Reference in Special Federal Aviation Regulation 50-2-Special Flight Rules in the Vicinity of Grand Canyon National Park, AZ

AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION:

Final rule; technical amendment.

SUMMARY:

This amendment removes an obsolete reference in Special Federal Aviation Regulation 50-2, Special Flight Rules in the Vicinity of Grand Canyon National Park, AZ. In section 9 of that SFAR, there is a "Note" that refers to an informational map of the Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA). This map is no longer available; however, there is an illustrational map of the SFRA in Part 93, Subpart U. Therefore, this technical amendment deletes the reference in SFAR 50-2, which is no longer needed and is confusing to the public.

DATES:

Effective Dates: Effective on March 6, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Linda Williams, Office of Rulemaking (ARM-109), Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591. Telephone: (202-267-9685); e-mail: Linda.L.Williams@faa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In January 2001(66 FR 1002) the FAA found it necessary to delay the implementation of the routes in the east end of the Canyon.Because this was initially difficult to explain in the regulations, the FAA made available an informational map to assist the public in understanding the boundaries of the Grand Canyon's Special Flight Rules Area, or SFRA. The note says that the map is available on the Office of Rulemaking's website or by contacting that office.

Because an illustrational map of the SFRA is contained in Part 93, Subpart U, the FAA removes the reference to the map in SFAR 50-2. The illustrational map remains in Part 93 to give interested parties a general picture of the Grand Canyon SFRA.
