subsequent modifications (if applicable) 

shall be the only binding authorizing 

document between the recipient and the 

U.S. Government. The FAA will be

Prohibition on the use of Federal 

Funds to Promote, Support, or advocate

The U.S. Government is opposed to 

prostitution and related activities, 

which are inherently harmful and 

dehumanizing, and contribute to the 

phenomenon of trafficking in persons. 

None of the funds made available under 

this agreement may be used to promote, 

support, or advocate the legalization or 

practice of prostitution. Nothing in the 

preceding sentence shall be construed to 

preclude assistance designed to 

ameliorate the suffering of, or health 

risks to, victims while they are being 

trafficked or after they are out of the 

situation that resulted from such victims 

being trafficked. The recipient shall 

insert the foregoing provision in all subagreements under this award. 

This provision includes express terms 

and conditions of the agreement and 

any violation of it shall be grounds for 

unilateral termination of the agreement 

by the Department of State prior to the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: State Right-of-Way Operations 

Manuals, OMB Control Number 2125– 

0586. 

Background: It is the responsibility of 

each State Department of Transportation 

(State) to acquire, manage and dispose 

of real property in compliance with the 

legal requirements of State and Federal 

laws and regulations. Part of providing 

assurance of compliance is to describe 

in a right-of-way procedural (operations) 

manual the organization, policies and 

procedures of the State to such an extent 

that these guide State employees, local 

acquiring agencies, and contractors who 

acquire and manage real property that is 

used for a federally funded 

transportation project. Procedural 

manuals assure the FHWA that the 

requirements of the Uniform Relocation 

Assistance and Real Property 

Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act) 

will be met. The State responsibility to 

prepare and maintain an up-to-date 

right-of-way procedural manual is set 

out in 23 CFR 710.201(c). The regulation 

allows States flexibility in determining 

how to meet the manual requirement. 

This flexibility allows States to prepare 

manuals in the format of their choosing, 

to the level of detail necessitated by 

State complexities. Each State decides 

how it will provide service to 

individuals and businesses affected by 

Federal or federally-assisted projects, 

while at the same time reducing the 

burden of government regulation. States 

are required to update manuals to reflect 

changes in Federal requirements for 

programs administered under Title 23 

U.S.C. The State manuals may be 

submitted to FHWA electronically or 

made available by posting on the State 

web site. 

Respondents: State Departments of 

Transportation (52, including the 

District of Columbia and Puerto Rico). 

Frequency: Once initially, then States 

update their operations manuals for 

review. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: 75 hours per respondent. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 75 hours for each of the 52 State 

Departments of Transportation. The 

total is 3,900 burden hours annually. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the FHWA oversight of the 

right-of-way program; (2) the accuracy 

of the estimated burden; (3) ways for the 

FHWA to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the collected 

information; and (4) ways that the 

burden could be minimized without 

reducing the quality of the collected 

information. The agency will summarize 

and/or include your comments in the 

request for OMB’s clearance of this 

information collection. 

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended; 

and 49 CFR 1.48.

ACTION: Notice of availability for

aircraft and aircrew capabilities and

equivalent procedures. 

(3) Upon selection for the program, 

successfully complete an RNP SAAAR 

Approval Process seminar.

personnel qualified through training, 

experience, and expertise in 14 CFR part 

91,121,125,129 and/or 135 operations, 

or equivalent experience.

applicant to become an RNP SAAAR 

Approval Consultant must submit a 

formal letter of request in addition to
