Modification of Certain Medical
Standards and Procedures and
Duration of Certain Medical
Certificates; Correcting Amendment
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; correcting
amendment.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting
amendatory language and regulatory
text regarding one paragraph of the final
rule entitled ‘‘Modification of Certain
Medical Standards and Procedures and
Duration of Certain Medical
Certificates’’. The rule extends the
duration of first- and third-class medical
certificates for certain individuals. The
FAA intended to revise an entire
paragraph of the section entitled
‘‘Duration of a medical certificate’’;
however, the amendatory language
incorrectly indicates that only one
paragraph is being revised.
DATES: Effective August 18, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 24, 2008, the FAA published
a final rule that extends the duration of
the FAA airman medical certificates for
certain pilots under the age of 40 at the
time of their last medical examination
(73 FR 43059). First-class medical
certificates, required for airline
transport pilot operations, are now valid
for 1 year instead of 6 months; thirdclass medical certificates, required for
private pilot operations, are now valid
for 5 years instead of 3 years.
48125
In the final rule, the FAA intended to
revise § 61.23(d) in its entirety, but
inadvertently categorized it only as a
revision to paragraph (d)(1).
Correction
This correction makes no changes to
the substance of the original final rule.
It corrects the amendatory language by
revising the entire paragraph (d) of
§ 61.23, as intended, instead of only
paragraph (d)(1). It also corrects the
regulatory text by removing (1) of the
introductory text to paragraph (d).
Moreover, the correction brings
paragraph designations under (d) in
conformance with the proper format
requirements. Consequently, the
paragraphs in the first column that were
previously designated as (i), (ii), and
(iii) are now designated as (1), (2), and
(3). The paragraphs in the second
column that were previously designated
with capital letters ((A), (B), (C), etc.) are
now designated with roman numerals
((i), (ii), (iii), etc.). The text of the entire
table remains the same.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In the Federal Register of July 3, 2008
(73 FR 38110), FDA published an order
prohibiting the extralabel use of
cephalosporin antimicrobial drugs in
food-producing animals, with a 60-day
comment period and a 90-day effective
date for the final rule.
The agency has received requests for
a 60-day extension of the comment
period for the order of prohibition. The
requests conveyed concern that the
current 60-day comment period does
not allow sufficient time to examine the
available evidence, consider the impact
of the ruling, and provide constructive
comment.
FDA has considered the requests and
is extending the comment period for the
order for 60 days, until November 1,
2008. Accordingly, FDA is also delaying
the effective date of the final rule 60
days, until November 30, 2008. The
agency believes that a 60-day extension
allows adequate time for interested
persons to submit comments without
significantly delaying implementation
of the final rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 24, 2008, the FAA published a final rule that extends the
duration of the FAA airman medical certificates for certain pilots
under the age of 40 at the time of their last medical examination (73
FR 43059). First-class medical certificates, required for airline
transport pilot operations, are now valid for 1 year instead of 6
months; third-class medical certificates, required for private pilot
operations, are now valid for 5 years instead of 3 years.
In the final rule, the FAA intended to revise Sec. 61.23(d) in its
entirety, but inadvertently categorized it only as a revision to
paragraph (d)(1).
Correction
This correction makes no changes to the substance of the original
final rule. It corrects the amendatory language by revising the entire
paragraph (d) of Sec. 61.23, as intended, instead of only paragraph
