This action reopens the comment period for the Safety Management System for Certificated Airports SNPRM published July 14, 2016. In the SNPRM, the FAA proposed to amend certain requirements included in the notice of proposed rulemaking published on October 7, 2010. Most notably, the FAA revised the proposed applicability of the rule so that a Safety Management System (SMS) is only required for a certificated airport classified as a small, medium, or large hub airport in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems; serving international air traffic; or having more than 100,000 total annual operations. The FAA also proposed changes that would extend the implementation period from 18 to 24 months; require submission of an implementation plan within 12 months instead of 6 months of the effective date of the final rule; modify the training requirements; ensure consistency among various FAA SMS initiatives, and reduce the implementation burden.
