DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Air Force

32 CFR Part 855


Use of United States Air Force Installations by Other Than United 
States Department of Defense Aircraft

AGENCY: Department of the Air Force, DOD.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of the Air Force has added provisions for 
alternate use of Air Force airfields by commercial air carriers that 
have contracted to participate in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) 
program. It is necessary to identify the CRAF Alternate as a purpose 
for which the Air Force will grant civil aircraft landing permits. The 
availability of Air Force airfields for use as alternates by CRAF 
carriers is intended to encourage greater participation in the CRAF 
program, which is structured to meet military airlift requirements 
during military emergencies that involve US forces.

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 28, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. R. A. Young, HQ USAF/XOOBC, 1480 
Air Force Pentagon, Room 5C966, Washington DC 20330-1480, telephone 
[phone].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Air Force has 
determined that this proposed rule is not a major rule because it will 
not have an annual adverse effect on the economy of $100 million or 
more. The Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Manpower, Reserve 
Affairs, Installations & Environment) has certified that this rule is 
exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 
U.S.C. 601-612 because this rule does not have a significant economic 
impact on small entities as defined by the Act, and does not impose any 
obligatory information requirements beyond internal Air Force use.
