Addendum

of the United States of America .  
 
_______________  
 
Automatic Dependent Surveillance  - Broadcast (ADS -B) Out Performance Requirements to Support 
Air Traffic Control (ATC) Service  
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT  
ACTION: Final rule  
SUMMARY: This final rule amends FAA regulations by adding equipage requirements and 
performanc e standards for Automatic Dependent Surveillance --Broadcast (ADS -B) Out avionics on 
aircraft operating in Classes A, B, and C airspace, as well as certain other specified classes of airspace 
within the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS). ADS -B Out broadca sts information about an aircraft 
through an onboard transmitter to a ground receiver. Use of ADS -B Out will move air traffic control 
from a radar -based system to a satellite -derived aircraft location system. This action facilitates the 
use of ADS -B for ai rcraft surveillance by FAA and Department of Defense (DOD) air traffic controllers 
to safely and efficiently accommodate aircraft operations and the expected increase in demand for 
air transportation. This rule also provides aircraft operators with a platf orm for additional flight 
applications and services.  
DATES: This final rule is effective on 11 August 2010. The compliance date for this final rule is 
1 January 2020. Affected parties, however, do not have to comply with the information collection 
requirem ent in Sec. 91.225 until the FAA publishes in the Federal Register the control number 
assigned by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for this information collection requirement.  
Publication of the control number notifies the public that OMB has app roved this information 
collection requirement under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The incorporation by reference 
of certain publications listed in the rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of 
11 August 2010.

the publication of administrative orders in the official gazette.
