Public Private Partnerships Public 

Meeting 

AGENCY: Department of Transportation, 

Federal Aviation Administration. 

ACTION: Notice of meeting. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is conducting a 

public meeting on August 7 regarding 

program design and implementation of 

an equipage incentives program for 

commercial aircraft and general aviation 

to equip their aircraft with Next 

Generation Air Transportation 

(NextGen) capabilities, pursuant to the 

FAA’s authority in the FAA 

Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 

(sec. 221). The purpose of this meeting 

is to serve as an information sharing 

session. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ann 

Tedford, Office of Finance and 

Management: Telephone (202) 267– 

8930: Email: 9–AWA–APO– 

NextGenIncentives@faa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The FAA Modernization and Reform 

Act of 2012 granted authority for the 

Secretary of Transportation to establish 

an equipage incentive program to equip 

US registered aircraft operating in the 

National Airspace System (NAS) in the 

interest of achieving NextGen 

capabilities. 

The goal for an equipage program 

would be to encourage deployment of 

NextGen capable aircraft in the NAS 

sooner than would have occurred 

otherwise. Specifically, FAA would aim 

to increase the speed of adoption of 

NextGen equipage, which will 

accelerate delivery of NextGen benefits 

by reducing the time of mixed equipage 

operations. The FAA is examining 

various methods of reducing the 

Government’s risk and determining the 

extent of industry interest in the 

program. The initial meeting on May 30 

served to share FAA’s preliminary 

thinking and seek industry feedback 

about what factors are beneficial to the 

various stakeholders, if such a program 

were to be created. 

Meeting Information 

Public meeting at Federal Aviation 

Administration Headquarters (800 

Independence Avenue SW., 

Washington, DC 20591) on August 7, 

2012, from 1:00pm to 3:30pm. The 

meeting will also be available to view 

live on-line. The purpose of the meeting 

is to share the evolution of our thinking 

based on what the agency heard from 

stakeholders subsequent to the initial 

PPP Meeting on May 30 and to 

communicate the agency’s next steps. 

While several stakeholder groups have 

provided written and oral feedback to 

FAA since that May 30 meeting, the 

operator community has not provided 

much comment on this topic. The FAA 

is interested in hearing from this 

segment of the community about 

whether and how such a program would 

achieve the desired result of 

accelerating deployment of NextGen 

capable aircraft in the NAS sooner than 

would have occurred otherwise. The 

FAA has also received limited feedback 

from potential private partners and 

would encourage feedback from 

interested partners as well. Comments, 

questions and statements in advance of 

this August 7 meeting should be 

submitted to: 9-AWA–APONextGenIncentives@faa.gov. 

The FAA recognizes that some of the 

information the agency is seeking might 

be considered proprietary or 

commercially sensitive. The FAA will 

take all steps needed to protect any 

information provided that is marked 

proprietary or commercially sensitive. 

RSVPs will be required for meeting 

attendance as well as webcast viewing. 

RSVP by August 3 to: http:// 

www.faa.gov/about/initiatives/ 

equipage_incentives/. Background 

material, meeting agenda, and details of 

participation webcast for the August 7 

meeting can also be obtained at: http://
