Federal Aviation Administration December 5, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Federal Aviation Administration, in cooperation with the National Park Service, published a document in the Federal Register on November 2, 2023, announcing the opportunity for the public to comment on the results of the FAA's efforts to identify historic properties, evaluate the properties' significance, and assess the undertaking's effects on them as part of the development of Air Tour Management Plan for Canyon de Chelly National Monument pursuant to the National Parks Air Tour Management Act of 2000 and its implementing regulations. The document contained an incorrect date regarding the comment deadline for the Consultation Documents for Public Comment Under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

This rule amends, suspends, or removes Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and associated Takeoff Minimums and Obstacle Departure Procedures for operations at certain airports. These regulatory actions are needed because of the adoption of new or revised criteria, or because of changes occurring in the National Airspace System, such as the commissioning of new navigational facilities, adding new obstacles, or changing air traffic requirements. These changes are designed to provide for the safe and efficient use of the navigable airspace and to promote safe flight operations under instrument flight rules at the affected airports.
