NHTSA Safety Research Portfolio Public Meeting: Fall 2024, 68238-68239 [2024-18994]

Download as PDF 68238 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 164 / Friday, August 23, 2024 / Notices khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES schedule facilitation. In general, once it acts on a schedule submission or slot request, the FAA may release information on slot allocation or similar slot transactions, or schedule information reviewed as part of the schedule facilitation process. The FAA does not expect that practice to change, and most slot and schedule information would not be exempt from release under FOIA. The FAA recognizes that some carriers may submit information on schedule plans that is both customarily and actually treated as private. Carriers that submit such confidential schedule information should clearly mark the information, or any relevant portions thereof, as proprietary information (‘‘PROPIN’’). The FAA will take the necessary steps to protect properly designated information to the extent allowable by law. EWR General Information Consistent with the WSG, carriers are asked for their voluntary cooperation to adjust schedules to meet the targeted scheduling limits in order to minimize potential congestion and delay. For the Summer 2025 scheduling season, the voluntary, targeted hourly scheduling limits remain at 77 operations and 41 operations per half-hour.5 To help with a balance between arrivals and departures, the targeted maximum number of scheduled arrivals or departures, respectively, is 41 in an hour and 22 in a half-hour. These targets are expected to allow some higher levels of operations in certain periods (not to exceed the hourly limits) and some recovery from lower demand in adjacent periods. Consistent with general established practice at EWR, the FAA will accept flights above the limits if the flights were operated as approved, or treated as operated, by the same carrier on a regular basis in the previous corresponding season (i.e., Summer 2024) and consistent with DOT’s 2022 reassignment of 16 peak-hour runway timings.6 However, the FAA does not intend to approve requests for new flights unless they can be accommodated within the targeted limits. The FAA is seeking carriers’ voluntary cooperation to get scheduled operations down to the targeted scheduling limits. Carriers are reminded that FAA approval for runway times is separate from the approval process for gates or other airport infrastructure and both are essential for the success of Level 2 at 5 See 88 FR 64964 (September 20, 2023). Department of Transportation Order 2022– 7–1, Docket DOT–OST–2021–0103, served July 5, 2022, ‘‘Reassignment of Schedules at NewarkLiberty International Airport.’’ 6 See VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:23 Aug 22, 2024 Jkt 262001 EWR. Schedule facilitation at Level 2 airports is designed to engender collaboration and gain mutual agreement between the carriers and the FAA regarding schedules and potential adjustments to stay within the performance goals and capacity limits of the airport and to mitigate delays and congestion that would result in the need for Level 3 slot controls. The FAA expects that all carriers operating at EWR will respect the targeted scheduling limits and work cooperatively with the FAA in order to avoid unacceptable delays and other adverse operational impacts at the airport. The FAA is aware of runway construction planned at EWR for 2025. At this time, the FAA is evaluating the impact on EWR’s runway capacity throughout the projected construction period in 2025. If the FAA concludes that scheduling relief is needed, a separate policy will be issued. Issued in Washington, DC, on August 20, 2024. Daniel J. Murphy, Vice President, System Operations Services.
