14 CFR Part 25

[Docket No. FAA-2006-26722; Amendment Nos. 25-127]
RIN 2120-AI66

 
Security Related Considerations in the Design and Operation of 
Transport Category Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule, correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is amending an error 
in its security related regulations affecting the design and operation 
of transport category airplanes. The paragraph that describes the 
incorporation by reference of a document containing ballistic 
resistance requirements contains an erroneous cross reference which was 
included in both the final rule and the notice of proposed rulemaking. 
This document corrects that error so that the reader is able to locate 
the correct information.

DATES: Effective Date: May 15, 2009.

this final rule, contact: Jeff Gardlin, FAA Airframe and Cabin Safety

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The FAA published a final rule entitled ``Security Related 
Considerations in the Design and Operation of Transport Category 
Airplanes'' in the Federal Register on October 28, 2008 (73 FR 63867). 
The final rule amended security related regulations affecting the 
design and operation of transport category airplanes. The final rule, 
as published, contained an erroneous cross reference in Sec.  25.795 
that was carried over from the notice of proposed rulemaking (Notice 
No. 06-19, published in the Federal Register on January 5, 2007, 72 FR 
630), which was also in error. The cross reference related to the 
incorporation by reference of National Institute of Justice (NIJ) 
Standard 0101.04, Ballistic Resistance of Personal Body Armor, June 
2001, Revision A, to establish ballistic resistance as required by 
paragraph (b)(3) of 14 CFR 25.795. The correct reference is paragraph 
(a)(3).
