DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
 

Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee; Production Certification 
Working Group

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of task amendment for the Production Certification 
Working Group.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice informs the public of an amendment to the original 
task assigned to the Production Certification Working Group of the 
Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mr. Daniel P. Salvano, Aircraft Certification Service (AIR-3), 800 
Independence avenue S.W., Washington, D.C. 20591, Telephone: (202) 267-
9554; FAX (202) 267-5364.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) 
has established the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) (56 
FR 2190; January 22, 1991, and 58 FR 9230; February 19, 1993). One 
issue being addressed by ARAC is aircraft certification procedures. 
This issue involves the procedures for aircraft certification found in 
parts 21, 39, and 183 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR), and 
Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 36 (SFAR 36), which are the 
responsibility of the FAA Director, Aircraft Certification Service.

    On March 19, 1993, the Production Certification Working Group was 
established, and notice of establishment was published in the Federal 
Register on March 29, 1993 (58 FR 16574). This Working Group was 
charged with making recommendations to the ARAC concerning the 
modernization of requirements applicable to production approval holders 
in subparts, F, G, H, J, K, and O of FAR Part 21.
    After the task was assigned, it became apparent that subpart L of 
FAR Part 21 and subparts A and B of FAR Part 45 should have been 
included in the review; therefore, the Production Certification Working 
Group task statement is amended to include subpart L of FAR Part 21 and 
subparts A and B of FAR Part 45.
    Task: The task statement assigned to the Production Certification 
Working Group is, therefore, amended to read as follows: The Production 
Certification Working Group is charged with making recommendations to 
the ARAC concerning the modernization of requirements applicable to 
production approval holders in subparts F, G, H, J, K, L, and O of FAR 
Part 21 and subparts A and B of Part 45. These recommendations involve 
streamlining the rules to establish a more modern, standardized set of 
production approval requirements more responsive to current industry 
production practices. The Production Certification Working Group will 
submit recommendations to the ARAC, which will determine whether to 
forward them to the FAA.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on October 21, 1994.
Daniel P. Salvano,
Assistant Executive Director ARAC on Aircraft Certification Procedures.
