service providers. 

(4) Complaint Procedures: By a date 

agreed upon by the Parties, the Parties 

will agree upon procedures for handling 

complaints against the accrediting entity 

received by the Department or referred 

to the Department because the 

complainant was not satisfied with the 

accrediting entity’s resolution of the 

complaint. These complaint procedures 

may be incorporated into the 

Department’s general procedures for 

handling instances in which the 

Department is considering whether a 

deficiency in the accrediting entity’s 

performance may warrant suspension or 

cancellation of its designation. 

Article 7—Other Issues Agreed by the 

Parties 

(1) Conflict of interest: Colorado shall 

disclose to the Department the name of 

any organization of which it is a 

member that also has as members 

intercountry adoption service providers. 

Colorado shall demonstrate to the 

Department that it has procedures in 

place to prevent any such membership 

from influencing its actions as an 

accrediting entity and shall maintain 

and use these procedures. 

(2) Liability: Colorado agrees to 

maintain sufficient resources to defend 

challenges to its actions as an 

accrediting entity, and to inform the 

Department immediately of any events 

that may affect its ability to defend 

itself. Colorado agrees that it will 

consult with the Department 

immediately if it becomes aware of any 

legal proceedings related to its acts as an 

accrediting entity, or of any legal 

proceedings not related to its acts as an 

accrediting entity that may threaten its 

ability to continue to function as an 

accrediting entity. 

Article 8—Liaison Between the 

Department and the Accrediting Entity 

(1) Colorado’s principal point of 

contact for communications relating to 

its functions and duties as an 

accrediting entity will be the Licensing 

Administrator in the Department of 

Human Services. The Department’s 

principal point of contact for 

communication is the Accrediting 

Entity Liaison officer in the Office of 

Children’s Issues, Bureau of Consular 

Affairs, U.S. Department of State. 

(2) The parties will keep each other 

currently informed in writing of the 

names and contact information for their 

principal points of contact. As of the 

signing of this Agreement, the 

respective principal points of contact 

are as set forth in Attachment 2. 

Article 9—Certifications and Assurances 

(1) Colorado certifies that it will 

comply with all requirements of 

applicable State and Federal law. 

(2) Colorado certifies that it satisfies 

all of the accrediting entity performance 

criteria set forth in 22 CFR 96.6 and 

agrees to continue to do so throughout 

the duration of its designation. 

(3) Colorado agrees to indemnify the 

Department and any persons acting on 

its behalf and to hold them harmless 

from any claim, loss or other liability 

that is caused by Colorado’s fault or 

negligence in connection with 

performing duties under this 

Agreement. Any negligence or alleged 

negligence by the Department or 

persons acting on its behalf shall not 

preclude a claim for indemnification. 

Article 10—Agreement, Scope, and 

Period of Performance 

(1) Scope: 

(a) This agreement is not intended to 

have any effect on any activities of 

Colorado that are not related to its 

functions as an accrediting entity for 

adoption service providers providing 

adoption services in intercountry 

adoptions under the Hague Convention. 

(b) Nothing in this agreement shall be 

deemed to be a commitment or 

obligation to provide any Federal funds. 

The Department, consistent with the 

IAA, may not provide any funds to the 

accrediting entity for the performance of 

accreditation and approval functions. 

(c) All accrediting entity functions 

and responsibilities authorized by this 

agreement are to occur only during the 

duration of this agreement. 

(d) Nothing in this agreement shall 

release Colorado from any legal 

requirements or responsibilities 

imposed on the accrediting entity by the 

IAA, 22 CFR Part 96, or any other 

applicable laws or regulations. 

(2) Duration: Colorado’s designation 

as an accrediting entity and this 

agreement shall remain in effect for five 

years from signature, unless terminated 

earlier by the Department in 

conjunction with the suspension or 

cancellation of the designation of 

Colorado. The Parties may mutually 

agree in writing to extend the 

designation of the accrediting entity and 

the duration of this agreement. If either 

Party does not wish to renew the 

agreement, it must provide written 

notice no less than one year prior to the 

termination date, and the Parties will 

consult to establish a mutually agreed 

schedule to transfer adoption service 

including by transferring a reasonable 

allocation of collected fees for the 

remainder of the accreditation or 

approval period of such adoption 

service providers. 

(3) Severability: To the extent that the 

Department determines, within its 

reasonable discretion, that any 

provision of this agreement is 

inconsistent with the Convention, the 

IAA, the regulations implementing the 

IAA or any other provision of law, that 

provision of the agreement shall be 

considered null and void and the 

remainder of the agreement shall 

continue in full force and effect as if the 

offending portion had not been a part of 

it. 

(4) Entirety of Agreement: This 

agreement is the entire agreement of the 

Parties and may be modified only upon 

written agreement of the Parties. 

Dated: June 29, 2006.

Federal Aviation Administration 

[AC 90–109] 

Airmen Transition to Experimental or 

Unfamiliar Airplanes 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) is announcing the 

availability of Advisory Circular (AC) 

90–109, which provides information 

and guidance to owners and pilots of 

experimental airplanes and to flight 

instructors who teach in these airplanes. 

This information and guidance contains 

recommendations for training 

experience for pilots of experimental 

airplanes in a variety of grouping based 

on performance and handling 

characteristics. This AC does not 

address the testing of newly built 

experimental airplanes. The current 

edition of AC 90–89, Amateur-Built and 

Ultralight Flight Testing Handbook, 

provides information on such testing. 

However, if a pilot is planning on 

participating in a flight-test program in 

an unfamiliar experimental airplane, 

this AC should be used to develop the 

skills and knowledge necessary to safely 

accomplish the test program using AC 

90–89. This AC may also be useful in 

planning the transition to any 

unfamiliar fixed-wing airplanes, 

including type-certificated (TC) 

airplanes. 

DATES: This AC became effective on 

March 30, 2010.
