This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Final rule; technical amendment.
The FAA is making minor technical changes to a final rule published in the Federal Register on May 28, 2010. In that final rule the FAA amended its regulations to add equipage requirements and performance standards for Automatic Dependent Surveillance—Broadcast (ADS-B) Out avionics on aircraft operating in Classes A, B, and C airspace, as well as certain other specified classes of airspace within the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS). This technical amendment changes a cross reference to a section in part 21 subpart O to be consistent with revisions to that subpart.
Effective April 16, 2011.
For technical questions concerning this final rule, contact Vincent Capezzuto, Surveillance and Broadcast Services, AJE-6, Air Traffic Organization, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; telephone (202) 385-8637; e-mail vincent.capezzuto@faa.gov.
For legal questions concerning this final rule, contact Lorelei Peter, Office of the Chief Counsel, AGC-220, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; telephone 202-267-3134; e-mail lorelei.peter@faa.gov.
On October 16, 2009, the FAA published a separate rulemaking entitled “Production and Airworthiness Approval, Part Marking, and Miscellaneous Amendments” (74 FR 53368) in which the FAA revised part 21 subpart O. As part of that revision, current § 21.609 Approval for deviation was renumbered as § 21.618, effective April 14, 2010.
On May 28, 2010, the FAA published a final rule entitled, “Automatic Dependent Surveillance—Broadcast (ADS-B) Out Performance Requirements To Support Air Traffic Control (ATC) Service” (75 FR 30160). In that final rule, the FAA referenced § 21.618 Approval for deviation in both the preamble and the regulatory text of §§ 91.225 and 91.227. The FAA later published a correction to the October 16, 2009, part 21 rule on March 1, 2010 (75 FR 9095) changing the effective date for the revision of subpart O to April 16, 2011. The FAA inadvertently did not reflect the section is currently numbered § 21.609 and explain that it would become § 21.618 on April 16, 2011.
By a correction document published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the FAA is correcting the cross reference to read “§ 21.609” in the May 28, 2010, ADS-B final rule.
This technical amendment amends §§ 91.225 and 91.227 to revise the cross references to § 21.609 to read § 21.618 effective April 16, 2011.
As discussed above, this action makes the appropriate amendatory change to revise cross references to § 21.609 to read “§ 21.618” in §§ 91.225 and 91.227. This amendment will not impose any additional restrictions on operators affected by these regulations.
On April 16, 2011, the effective date of this technical amendment, the cross reference appearing on page 30164 in the preamble of the May 28, 2010, final rule, which now reads “§ 21.618” and is being corrected to read “§ 21.609” elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, will revert to reading “§ 21.618.”
Accordingly, title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 91 is amended as follows:
1. The authority citation for part 91 continues to read as follows:
2. Amend § 91.225 (c) by revising “§ 21.609” to read “§ 21.618.”
3. Amend § 91.227 (f) by revising “§ 21.609” to read “§ 21.618.”
Issued in Washington, DC, on June 24, 2010.

Director, Office of Rulemaking.
