Removal of the Special Rule for Model Aircraft; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a final rule published on December 11, 
2020. In that final rule, which became effective on the date of 
publication, the FAA removed the regulations codifying the Special Rule 
for Model Aircraft as a result of a change in applicable law. The FAA 
inadvertently listed an incorrect amendment number for the final rule. 
This document corrects that error.

DATES: This correction is effective July 26, 2021.

Washington, DC 20591; telephone: 202-267-2371; email: 
thea.c.dickerman@faa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 11, 2020, the FAA published the 
Removal of the Special Rule for Model Aircraft final rule (85 FR 
79823). After the rule was published, the FAA discovered it had listed 
Amdt. No. 1-73 for the changes to title 14 Code of Federal Regulations 
part 1, instead of Amdt. No. 1-74.

Electronic Access and Filing

    A copy of the final rule may be viewed online at http://www.regulations.gov using the docket number listed above. A copy of 
this final rule will also be placed in the docket. Electronic retrieval 
help and guidelines are available on the website. It is available 24 
hours each day, 365 days each year. An electronic copy of this document 
may also be downloaded from the Office of the Federal Register's 
website at http://www.ofr.gov and the Government Publishing Office's 
website at http://www.gpo.gov.

Good Cause for Adoption Without Prior Notice

    Under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553), the 
Agency generally offers interested parties the opportunity to comment 
on proposed regulations and publish rules not less than 30 days before 
their effective dates. However, the APA provides that an agency is not 
required to conduct notice-and-comment rulemaking or delay effective 
dates when the agency, for good cause, finds that the requirement is 
impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest (5 
U.S.C. 553(b)(B) and (d)(3)). There is good cause to waive both of 
these requirements here as they are unnecessary, as this action merely 
makes a technical correction to the amendment number of a published 
final rule.

Correction

    In FR Doc. 2020-26726 (85 FR 79823) published on December 11, 2020, 
the following correction is made:
    1. On page 79823, in the second column, in the heading of the final 
rule, correct ``Amdt. Nos. 1-73, 61-148, 101-10, 107-6'' to read 
``Amdt. Nos. 1-74, 61-148, 101-10, 107-6''.

    Issued under authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 106(f) and 44809, 
in Washington, DC.
