14 CFR 16, Subpart E - Proposed Orders of Compliance

The FAA is correcting a notice of proposed rulemaking that published in the Federal Register on March 5, 2012 (77 FR 13027). In that document, the FAA proposed to amend its regulations to update, simplify, and streamline rules of practice and procedure for filing and adjudicating complaints against federally-assisted airports. This correction clarifies that the notice number for that proposed rulemaking is 12-02.

This action would update, simplify, and streamline rules of practice and procedure for filing and adjudicating complaints against federally-assisted airports. It would improve efficiency by enabling parties to file submissions with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) electronically, and by incorporating modern business practices into how the FAA handles complaints. This amendment is necessary to reflect changes in applicable laws and regulations, and to apply lessons learned since the existing rules were implemented in 1996.
