Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 29 / Friday, February 11, 2011 / Notices
This policy became effective
November 1, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: A frequently
asked questions (FAQ) page about the
suspension of the expunction policy
and its effects on pilots is available at:
https://www.faa.gov/pilots/lic_cert/pria/
guidance/pilotfaq. Further questions
may be directed to 9-AGCExpunctionSuspension@faa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: In 1991, the FAA adopted
a policy of expunging records of certain
closed legal enforcement actions against
individuals, see 56 FR 55,788 (Oct. 29,
1991). This includes both airman
certificate holders and non-holders,
such as passengers. Among other things,
the policy provides that, in general,
records of legal enforcement actions
involving suspension of an airman
certificate or a civil penalty against an
individual are maintained for five years,
then expunged. Cases closed with no
enforcement action are expunged within
ninety days. In addition, the FAA has a
policy of expunging records of
administrative actions after two years
that was in existence at the time of and
was left unchanged by the adoption of
the 1991 expunction policy.
On August 1, 2010, the Airline Safety
and Federal Aviation Administration
Extension Act of 2010, Public Law 111–
216, 124 Stat. 2348 (2010) (‘‘Act’’), was
signed into law. The Act amends the
Pilot Records Improvement Act (‘‘PRIA’’)
by requiring the FAA to create a pilot
records database. Air carriers will use
this database to perform background
checks on pilots before hiring them, as
required by PRIA. The database will
contain various types of records,
including summaries of legal
enforcement actions against individuals
resulting in a finding by the FAA
Administrator of a violation. These
records must be kept by the FAA until
it receives notice that the individual is
deceased. The requirement to keep these
records began on the date of the law’s
enactment, August 1, 2010.
The five-year expunction of certain
legal enforcement action records is not
consistent with the Act’s amendments
to PRIA. Although the requirement to
maintain the records began on August 1,
2010, the FAA last expunged on
November 1, 2010, as we began
determining which records must be kept
in order to comply with the law. The
November 1, 2010 expunction covered
records from scheduled for expunction
during October. We will continue to
expunge records of administrative
actions and cases with no enforcement
action, as PRIA does not require the
FAA to put this information in the pilot

record database. The FAA will
determine the full effect of the Act’s
requirements on the expunction policy
and will amend its expunction policy
accordingly. The details of the amended
expunction policy will be published in
the Federal Register.
Issued in Washington, DC on February 4,
2011.

Administrator.
