Background In the mid-1990s, the JAA and we recognized the need to streamline the certification and continued airworthiness processes we apply to imported aviation products. We established sets of type validation and post-type validation principles in a letter of understanding, signed in November 1997. These principles were later amended in November 2001. The European Parliament approved legislation setting up EASA in July 2002. The new agency, which began operating in September 2003, assumed the certification and validation authority previously exercised by the individual National Aviation Authorities. EASA recognizes existing bilateral agreements between the United States and European Union member states until a single, new bilateral agreement is negotiated between the United States and the European Union. Forming EASA gave everyone the opportunity to look at the validation and post-validation processes, to incorporate lessons learned, and tailor them to the new European aviation certification system. As a result, we streamlined the principles and extended the scope.

ACTION: Notice of intent; withdrawal. AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Federal Highway Administration is issuing this notice to advise the public of its intent to withdraw a notice of intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement in cooperating with the Virginia Department of Transportation for potential transportation improvements in the western portion of Northern Virginia, between Route 7 in Loudoun County and Interstate 95 in Stafford County, to address growing regional transportation needs. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Edward S. Sundra, Senior Environmental Specialist, Federal Highway Administration, Post Office Box 10249, Richmond, Virginia 23240– 0249, Telephone 804–775–3338. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 19, 2000, the Federal Highway Administration published a notice of intent in the Federal Register (69 FR 79450, December 19, 2000) to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement in cooperation with the Virginia Department of Transportation for potential transportation improvements in the western portion of Northern Virginia. The project, more commonly known as the Western Transportation Corridor, was proposed to be located between Route 7 in Loudoun County and Interstate 95 in Stafford County and was being developed to address growing regional transportation needs. However, like many other states in the country, the Commonwealth of Virginia has had to deal with budgetary and fiscal priorities brought about by the economic recession. As a result, the Virginia Department of Transportation stopped development of the Western Transportation Corridor and terminated the consultant contract in 2003 for the preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement.
