NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD
49 CFR Part 821
Aviation Rules of Practice; General Revisions
AGENCY: National Transportation Safety Board.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This revision corrects an inadvertent change. By Federal
Register notice published November 15, 1994 (59 FR 59042), the Safety
Board revised a number of its rules of practice, including 49 CFR
821.48(e). The Board inadvertently failed to retain a part of that
rule. This notice reinstates the sentence that was dropped.
DATES: The new rule is effective on May 12, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jane F. Mackall, (202) 382-6540.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective January 17, 1995, the Safety Board
implemented numerous revisions to its rules of practice. The rule at 49
CFR 821.48(e) was revised to permit the filing, subsequent to briefs,
of citations to supplemental authorities. Unintentionally, the
paragraph did not retain then-current language prohibiting other
briefs, unless authorized on a showing of good cause. To avoid any
future misinterpretation, by this notice, that sentence is reinstated.
List of Subjects in 49 CFR Part 821
Administrative practice and procedure, Airmen, Aviation safety.
Accordingly, 49 CFR Part 821 is amended as set forth below.
