Schedule of User Fees for Certification Services and Approvals 
Performed Outside the United States

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice informs the public of the effective date of 
changes to the schedule of user fees for certification services and 
approvals outside the United States.

    The methodology for computing these user fees and the resulting 
user fee levels were adopted through rulemaking action. This rulemaking 
``Fees for Certification Services and Approvals Performed Outside the 
United States'', Docket No. 27809, Amendment No. 187-5, is published as 
a final rule in this same part of the Federal Register, and will become 
effective on May 19, 1995. In connection with its rulemaking 
initiative, the FAA indicated that it will publish a notice of issuance 
of Advisory Circular entitled, ``Flight Standards Service Schedule of 
Charges Outside the United States.'' The Final Rule requires FAA to 
publish in the ``Notices'' section of the Federal Register all changes 
to the schedule of user fees for certification services and approvals 
performed outside the United States. This notice is issued in response 
to that requirement. The new schedule of fees, which will also appear 
in the Advisory Circular, is presented below.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The schedule of fees published below becomes effective 
on May 19, 1995.

Ms. Emily A. White, Flight Standards Service, AFS-50, Federal Aviation 
Administration, 800 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, DC 20591, 
telephone (202) 267-3301.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: User fees will be reviewed every year, at 
the beginning of the fiscal year, and adjusted either upward or 
downward in order to reflect the current costs of performing 
certification services and approvals outside the United States.
    Notice of each change to a fee for a service described in the user 
fee schedule will be published in the ``Notices'' section of the 
Federal Register.

    Issued in Washington, DC on April 10, 1995.

Director, Flight Standards Service.
