victim, whether specifically cited in the

count of conviction or not, each such

victim shall be treated as if contained in

a separate count of conviction.

‘‘5. Subsection (b)(3) is intended to

have broad application and includes

offenses involving a victim less than

eighteen years of age entrusted to the

defendant, whether temporarily or

permanently. For example, teachers, day

care providers, baby-sitters, or other

temporary caretakers are among those

who would be subject to this

enhancement. In determining whether

to apply this adjustment, the court

should look to the actual relationship

that existed between the defendant and

the victim and not simply to the legal

status of the defendant-victim

relationship.

‘‘6. If the adjustment in subsection

(b)(3) applies, do not apply § 3B1.3

(Abuse of Position of Trust or Use of

Special Skill).

‘‘7. The cross reference in subsection

(c)(1) is to be construed broadly to

include all instances where the offense

involved employing, using, persuading,

inducing, enticing, coercing,

transporting, permitting, or offering or

seeking by notice of advertisement, a

person less than eighteen years of age to

engage in sexually explicit conduct for

the purpose of producing any visual

depiction of such conduct.

‘‘8. The cross reference at subsection

(c)(3) addresses the unusual case in

which the offense did not involve

promoting prostitution and neither

subsection (c)(1) nor (c)(2) is applicable.

In such case, the guideline for the

underlying prohibited sexual conduct is

to be used; e.g., § 2A3.2 (Criminal

Sexual Abuse of Minor (Statutory Rape)

or Attempt to Commit Such Acts) or

§ 2A3.4 (Abusive Sexual Contact or

Attempt to Commit Abusive Sexual

Contact). If three is no offense guideline

for the underlying prohibited sexual

conduct, § 2X5.1 (Other Offenses) is to

be used.’’.

Chapter 1, Part A, Subpart 4(b) is

amended in the fourth paragraph by

striking the third sentence.

Section 3D1.2(d) is amended in the

third paragraph by striking ‘‘2G1.2,’’.

Appendix A is amended—

in the line referenced to 8 U.S.C. § 1328,

by striking ‘‘, 2G1.2’’;

in the line referenced to 18 U.S.C.

§ 2421, by striking ‘‘, 2G1.2’’;

in the line referenced to 18 U.S.C.

§ 2422, by striking ‘‘, 2G1.2’’; and

in the line referenced to 18 U.S.C.

§ 2423(a), by striking ‘‘, 2G1.2’’ and

inserting ‘‘2G1.1’’.

Reason for Amendment

This is a three-part amendment. First,

this amendment implements the

congressional directive in section 4 of

the Sex Crimes Against Children

Prevention Act of 1995, Pub. L. No.

104–71, 109 Stat. 774, by providing a

three-level enhancement for offenses

involving the transportation of minors

with intent to engage in prostitution or

other prohibited sexual conduct under

18 U.S.C. § 2423(a). The three-level

enhancement is provided in the specific

offense characteristic in subsection

(b)(2) related to the age of the victim.

Second, this amendment addresses 18

U.S.C. § 2422(b), a new offense created

by section 508 of the

Telecommunications Act of 1996, Pub.

L. No. 104–104, 110 Stat. 56. That

offense makes it unlawful, in interstate

or foreign commerce, including through

the mail, or within the special maritime

or territorial jurisdiction of the United

States, to knowingly persuade, induce,

entice, or coerce an individual under

the age of 18 years to engage in

prostitution or other prohibited sexual

conduct. The amendment brings this

new offense within the scope of the

consolidated, expanded guideline. As

revised, the guideline is broadly

applicable to offenses that involve

‘‘promoting prostitution or prohibited

sexual conduct.’’ That term is defined to

encompass conduct covered by the new

Telecommunications Act offense as well

as conduct previously covered by the

guideline; i.e., transporting a person, or

inducing a person to travel, for the

purpose of prostitution or other

prohibited sexual conduct.

Third, this amendment consolidates

§§ 2G1.1 (Transportation for the Purpose

of prostitution or Prohibited Sexual

Conduct) and 2G1.2 (Transportation of a

Minor for the Purpose of Prostitution or

Prohibited Sexual Conduct) in

furtherance of the Commission’s goal to

simplify the operation of the guidelines.

Because the consolidated guideline

covers both offenses involving adult

victims and those involving minors, a

two-level increase is provided in the

specific offense characteristic related to

the age of the victim to increase the

offense level when a minor is involved.

The two-level increase is in addition to

the three-level enhancement directed to

be made by the Sex Crimes Against

Children Prevention Act of 1995. In

addition, the consolidated guideline

defines the term ‘‘victim’’ and

incorporates the cross references of

§ 2G1.2 into the consolidate guideline.

The amendment also clarifies that the

‘‘Statutory Provisions’’ in the

Commentary of the consolidated

guideline cover offenses under 18 U.S.C.

§ 2423(a (but not § 2423b), which is

referenced in Appendix A to §§ 2A3.1,

2A3.2, and 2A3.3).

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Noise Exposure Map Notice; Receipt of

Noise Compatibility Program and

Request for Review; Albany County

Airport, Albany, New York

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) announces its

determination that the noise exposure

maps submitted by the Albany County

Airport Authority for the Albany County

Airport under the provisions of Title I

of the Aviation Safety and Noise

Abatement Act of 1979 (Pub. L. 96–193)

and 14 CFR part 150 are in compliance

with applicable requirements. The FAA

also announces that it is reviewing a

proposed noise compatibility program

that was submitted for Albany County

Airport under part 150 in conjunction

with the noise exposure maps, and that

this program will be approved or

disapproved on or before October 28,

1996.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the

FAA’s determination on the noise

exposure maps and of the start of its

review of the associated noise

compatibility program is April 30, 1996.

The public comment period ends July 1,

1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Steven Urlass, Community Planner,

FAA—Eastern Regional Office,

Fitzgerald Federal Building, JFK

International Airport, Jamaica, New

York 11430; (718) 553–3353.

Comments on the proposed noise

compatibility program should also be

submitted to the above office.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

notice announces that the FAA finds

that the noise exposure maps submitted

for Albany County Airport are in

compliance with applicable

requirements of part 150, effective April

30, 1996.

Further, FAA is reviewing a proposed

noise compatibility program for that

airport which will be approved or

disapproved on or before October 28,

1996. This notice also announces the

availability of this program for public

review and comment.

Under section 103 of Title I of the

Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement

Act of 1979 (hereinafter referred to as

‘‘the Act’’), an airport operator may

submit to the FAA noise exposure maps

which meet applicable regulations and

which depict noncompatible land uses

as of the date of submission of such

maps, a description of projected aircraft

operations, and the ways in which such

operations will affect such maps. The

Act requires such maps to be developed

in consultation with interested and

affected parties in the local community,

government agencies and persons using

the airport.

An airport operator who has

submitted noise exposure maps that are

found by the FAA to be in compliance

with the requirements of FAR part 150,

promulgated pursuant to Title I of the

Act, may submit a noise compatibility

program for FAA approval which sets

forth the measures the operator has

taken or proposes for the reduction of

existing noncompatible uses and for the

prevention of the introduction of

additional noncompatible uses.

The Albany County Airport Authority

submitted to the FAA on May 2, 1995,

noise exposure maps, descriptions and

other documentation which were

produced during an airport noise

compatibility planning study. It was

requested that the FAA review this

material as the noise exposure maps, as

described in section 103(a)(1) of the Act,

and that the noise mitigation measures,

to be implemented jointly by the airport

and surrounding communities, be

approved as a noise compatibility

program under section 104(b) of the Act.

The FAA has completed its review of

the noise exposure maps and related

descriptions submitted by the Albany

County Airport Authority. The specific

maps under consideration are the noise

exposure maps: Exhibit 1, Existing

(1995) Noise Exposure Map (first page

following page vi) and Exhibit 2, Future

(2000) Noise Exposure Map (second

page following page vi) of the May 1995

submission. The FAA has determined

that these maps for Albany County

Airport are in compliance with
