SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a 1980 final rule,1 the FAA revoked part 123, effective January 1, 1983, because of the diminishing number of operators under that part. As an alternative, we allowed those operators to seek certification either under part 121 or part 125. Since the effective date of the revocation was January 1, 1983, we should have removed all references to part 123 from part 43 as of that date. However, we recently learned that part 123 references remain in § 43.11(a), § 43.11(a)(7), § 43.15(a), § 43.15(a)(2), and § 43.16. This action removes those references. In addition, it corrects some editorial inconsistencies. For example, we lowercased the word ‘‘Part’’ in several of the previously referenced sections to make it consistent with other sections.

The FAA published this direct final rule with a request for comments in the Federal Register on June 5, 2006 (71 FR 32271). The FAA uses the direct final rulemaking procedure for a noncontroversial rule where the FAA believes that there will be no adverse public comment. This direct final rule advised the public that no adverse comments were anticipated, and that unless a written adverse comment, or a written notice of intent to submit such an adverse comment, were received within the comment period, the regulation would become effective on September 28, 2006. No adverse comments were received, and thus this notice confirms that this direct final rule will become effective on that date.
