{"abstract":"Pursuant to the notice procedures in new part 293, the Department is exempting U.S. and foreign air carriers from the statutory and regulatory duty to file international passenger tariffs with DOT in certain instances, subject to the reimposition of the duty in specific cases when consistent with the public interest. In addition, the Department is reissuing a new version of part 221 that eliminates most of the traditional paper format and filing procedures set forth in the present version of 14 CFR part 221. Following the notice specified in new part 293, certain currently effective price tariffs are canceled as a matter of law, pending tariff applications covered by the exemption are dismissed, and new tariffs will generally not be accepted for filing. In response to comments, currently effective rules related to general ``conditions of carriage'' of each passenger, set forth in general governing rules tariffs, may continue in legal effect for 180 days from the date of effectiveness of the final rule, although carriers may elect to cancel them earlier and may also deviate from such rules through express agreement. This action is taken on the Department's initiative in order to streamline government operations and eliminate unjustified regulatory burdens.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION","name":"Transportation Department","id":492,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/transportation-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/492","parent_id":null,"slug":"transportation-department"},{"raw_name":"Office of the Secretary"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/1999/07/27/99-18700.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"221","title":14},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"250","title":14},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"293","title":14}],"citation":"64 FR 40654","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This regulation is effective on September 10, 1999.
