Revision of Authority Citations
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule adopts new authority citations for Chapter I of
Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). In 1994, the Federal
Aviation Act of 1958 and several other statutes conferring authority
upon the Federal Aviation Administration were recodified into positive
law. This document updates the authority citations listed in the Code
of Federal Regulations to reference the current law.
DATES: This final rule is effective December 28, 1995. Comments on this
final rule must be received by March 1, 1996.
ADDRESSES: Comments on this final rule should be mailed, in triplicate,
to: Federal Aviation Administration, Office of the Chief Counsel,
Attention: Rules Docket (AGC-200), Docket No. 28417, 800 Independence
Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20951. Comments delivered must be marked
Docket No. 28417. Comments may be examined in room 915G weekdays
between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., except on Federal holidays.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Petronis, Office of the Chief
Counsel, Regulations Division, AGC-210, Federal Aviation
Administration, 800 Independence Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591;
telephone: 202-267-3073.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In July 1994, the Federal Aviation Act of
1958 and numerous other pieces of legislation affecting transportation
in general were recodified. The statutory material became ``positive
law'' and was recodified at 49 U.S.C. 1101 et seq.
The Federal Aviation Administration is amending the authority
citations for its regulations in Chapter I of 14 CFR to reflect the
recodification of its statutory authority. No substantive change was
intended to any statutory authority by the recodification, and no
substantive change is introduced to any regulation by this change.
Although this action is in the form of a final rule and was not
preceded by notice and an opportunity for public comment, comments are
invited on this action. Interested persons are invited to comment by
submitting such written data, views, or arguments as they may desire by
March 1, 1996. Comments should identify the rules docket number and be
submitted to the address specified under the caption ADDRESSES.
Because of the editorial nature of this change, it has been
determined that prior notice is unnecessary under the Administrative
Procedure Act. It has also been determined that this final rule is not
a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866, nor is
it a significant action under DOT regulatory policies and procedures
(44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979). Further, the editorial nature of this
change has no known or anticipated economic impact; accordingly, no
regulatory analysis has been prepared.
