[Docket No. 28154; Amendment No. 119-13]

RIN 2120-AG03

Operating Requirements: Domestic, Flag, Supplemental, Commuter, and On-Demand Operations: Corrections and Editorial Changes

AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION:

Final rule; technical amendment.

SUMMARY:

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is making minor technical changes to a final rule published in the Federal Register on June 14, 1996. That final rule adopted corrections and editorial changes to several parts, which included an amendment to a section of part 119 that removed two subparagraphs. However, the FAA inadvertently did not also amend a separate section of part 119 to remove reference to the two obsolete subparagraphs. The FAA is issuing this technical amendment to correct that oversight.

DATES:

Effective Date: Effective on May 12, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) published a final rule in the Federal Register on June 14, 1996 (61 FR 30432)1that adopted corrections and editorial changes to 14 CFR parts 119, 121, and 135. The amendment included one to § 119.21, which revised then paragraph (a) to remove (a)(3)(i) and (a)(3)(ii). The FAA should also have amended § 119.49 to remove the two obsolete subparagraphs referenced in paragraph (b)(11). The FAA is issuing today's action to correct that oversight.

Footnotes:

1 This 1996 final rule entitled "Operating Requirements: Domestic, Flag, Supplemental, Commuter, and On-Demand Operations: Corrections and Editorial Changes" was adopted to make corrections and editorial changes to the "Commuter Operations and General Certification and Operations Requirements" final rule (60 FR 65832; December 20, 1995).

This action makes the appropriate amendatory change to remove two obsolete subparagraphs in current § 119.49(b)(11). With this amendatory change, the reference to subparagraphs § 119.21(a)(3)(i) and (a)(3)(ii) will be removed from § 119.49(b)(11). This amendment will not impose any additional restrictions on operators affected by these regulations.

Technical Amendment

The technical amendment will remove the reference to § 119.21(a)(3)(i) and (a)(3)(ii) from § 119.49(b)(11).
