Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 12, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
the regulations incorporated by
reference, special conditions are needed
for the Learjet Model 35, 35A, 36, and
36A airplanes modified by ARINC, Inc.
These special conditions require that
new avionics/electronics and electrical
systems that perform critical functions
be designed and installed to preclude
component damage and interruption of
function due to both the direct and
indirect effects of HIRF.
High-Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF)
With the trend toward increased
power levels from ground-based
transmitters, and the advent of space
and satellite communications, coupled
with electronic command and control of
the airplane, the immunity of critical
avionics/electronics and electrical
systems to HIRF must be established.
It is not possible to precisely define
the HIRF to which the airplane will be
exposed in service. There is also
uncertainty concerning the effectiveness
of airframe shielding for HIRF.
Furthermore, coupling of
electromagnetic energy to cockpitinstalled equipment through the cockpit
window apertures is undefined. Based
on surveys and analysis of existing HIRF
emitters, an adequate level of protection
exists when compliance with the HIRF
protection special condition is shown
with either paragraph 1 or 2 below:
1. A minimum threat of 100 volts rms
(root-mean-square) per meter electric
field strength from 10 KHz to 18 GHz.
a. The threat must be applied to the
system elements and their associated
wiring harnesses without the benefit of
airframe shielding.
b. Demonstration of this level of
protection is established through system
tests and analysis.
2. A threat external to the airframe of
the field strengths identified in the table
below for the frequency ranges
indicated. Both peak and average field
strength components from the table are
to be demonstrated.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Electronic filing of tax returns benefits
taxpayers and the IRS by eliminating the
manual processing of returns and
reducing errors that are more likely to
occur during the manual preparation
and processing of paper returns.
Electronic filing results in faster settling
of accounts and better customer service
because the time required to process
paper returns is eliminated. The error
rate for corporate income tax returns
filed on Form 1120, ‘‘U.S. Corporation
Income Tax Return’’ and Form 1120S,
U.S. Income Tax Return for an S
Corporation,’’ on paper is approximately
20 percent. Information returns required
to be filed under section 6033, which
include Form 990, ‘‘Return of
Organization Exempt From Income
Tax,’’ and Form 990–PF, ‘‘Return of
Private Foundation or Section 4947(a)(1)
Trust Treated as a Private Foundation,’’
that are filed on paper have an error rate
of approximately 35 percent. The error
rate for paper returns is due in roughly
equal parts to IRS processing errors and
taxpayer return preparation mistakes.
By contrast, electronically filed returns
have an error rate of less than one
percent because these returns are
subject to screening by the IRS prior to
being accepted and are not required to
be input manually by the IRS.
Furthermore, returns required to be filed
pursuant to section 6033 must be made
available to the public by both the
organization and the IRS pursuant to
section 6104. Many state charity
regulatory agencies rely on these
returns. Requiring these returns to be
filed electronically improves the
accuracy of the information for both
public and regulatory oversight of these
organizations.
Electronic filing of returns improves
taxpayer satisfaction and confidence in
the filing process, and may be more cost
effective for taxpayers who file
electronically. Electronic filing will
enable the IRS to review taxpayer

submissions expeditiously to reduce
audit cycle time and will help the IRS
identify emerging trends.
In February 2004, the IRS introduced
Modernized e-File, a new electronic
filing system for corporations required
to file Form 1120 or Form 1120S and
organizations required to file Form 990.
During the development of Modernized
e-File, the IRS worked closely with
taxpayers and tax professionals to
ensure that the new electronic filing
system would satisfy their needs.
Modernized e-File alleviates the burden
of filing massive paper returns, which
may be up to 50,000 pages in length.
Electronically filed returns are
processed upon receipt and, shortly
thereafter, an IRS acknowledgment
message is generated to inform
taxpayers or tax professionals that the
return has been accepted or rejected.
Error messages for rejected returns
identify the reasons the return was
rejected and make it easier for the
taxpayer or tax professional to correct
the errors. Modernized e-File
streamlines electronic filing by
eliminating the need for paper
documents to be mailed to the IRS and
enables taxpayers to attach forms and
schedules, along with other documents,
to the return in Portable Document
Format (PDF).
Section 6011(e) authorizes the
Secretary to prescribe regulations
providing the standards for determining
which returns must be filed on magnetic
media or in other machine-readable
form. Section 6011(e)(2) provides that
the Secretary may not require any
person to file returns on magnetic media
unless the person is required to file at
least 250 returns during the calendar
year. Section 6011(e)(2)(B) requires that
the Secretary, prior to issuing
regulations requiring these entities to
file returns on magnetic media, take into
account (among other relevant factors)
the ability of the taxpayer to comply at
reasonable cost with the requirements of
the regulations. The term magnetic
media includes any magnetic media
permitted under applicable regulations,
revenue procedures, or publications,
including electronic filing. Recognizing
the benefits of electronic filing,
Congress enacted section 2001(a) of the
IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of
1998, Public Law 105–206, 112 Stat.
727, which states that the policy of
Congress is to promote paperless filing,
with a long-range goal of providing for
the filing of at least 80 percent of all
Federal and information returns in
electronic form by 2007.
The IRS has partnered with taxpayers
and tax practitioners in the design of
Modernized e-File to minimize burdens
