Background

    On September 5, 2014, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) 
published a notice in the Federal Register (79 FR 53008) announcing the 
availability of proposed Advisory Circular (AC) 120-66C. AC 120-66C 
provides guidance for establishing an air transportation Aviation 
Safety Action Program (ASAP). The comment period for that notice was to 
have closed November 4, 2014.
    The FAA has reviewed the requests made by multiple industry groups 
for extension of the comment period to Notice of availability of 
proposed revision to Advisory Circular for Aviation Safety Action 
Program (ASAP). These petitioners have shown a substantive interest in 
the contents of the Notice and good cause for the extension. The FAA 
has determined that extension of the comment period is consistent with 
the public interest, and that good cause exists for taking this action.
    Accordingly, the comment period for Notice of availability of 
proposed revision to Advisory Circular for Aviation Safety Action 
Program (ASAP) is extended until January 5, 2015.

John S. Duncan,
Director, Flight Standards Service.
