Security Measures; Hellenikon International Airport, Athens, 
Greece

Summary

    The Secretary of Transportation has now determined that Hellenikon 
International Airport, Athens, Greece, maintains and carries out 
effective security measures.

Notice

    By notice published on March 28, 1996, I announced that I had 
determined that Hellenikon International Airport, Athens, Greece, did 
not maintain and carry out effective security measures and that, 
pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 44907(d), I was providing public notification of 
that determination. I now find that Hellenikon International Airport 
maintains and carries out effective security measures. My determination 
is based on a recent Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) assessment 
which reveals that security measures used at the airport now meet or 
exceed the Standards and Recommended Practices established by the 
International Civil Aviation Organization.
    I have directed that a copy of this notice be published in the 
Federal Register and that the news media be notified of my 
determination. In addition, as a result of this determination, the FAA 
will direct that signs posted in U.S. airports relating to my March 21, 
1996, determination be removed, and U.S. and foreign air carriers will 
no longer be required to provide notice of that determination to 
passengers purchasing tickets for transportation between the United 
States and Athens, Greece.

    Dated: May 15, 1996.
Federico Pena,
Secretary of Transportation.
