Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Parts 121 and 135 [Docket No. FAA-2002-6717; Amendment Nos. 121-329, 135-108] RIN 2120-AI03 AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Final rule; correction. SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration is correcting a final rule published in the Federal Register on January 16, 2007 ( 72 FR 1808 ). That final rule applied to air carrier (part 121), commuter, and on-demand (part 135) turbine powered multi-engine airplanes used in passenger-carrying, and some all-cargo, extended-range operations. This amendment adds the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Information Collection Control Number indicating approval of the information collection requirements of the final rule. This amendment also makes three corrections: In part 135, it corrects the dual maintenance paragraph to conform to part 121 and deletes a redundant defining of “adequate airport”; in part 121 it corrects the rule language applicable to those persons who must accomplish and certify by signature the completion of ETOPS tasks; and in parts 121 and 135 it corrects the hours required for notification of maintenance problems based on an earlier FAA rulemaking. None of these changes is substantive, but will clarify the final rule for the affected public. DATES: These amendments become effective May 10, 2007.
