Airspace and Flight Operations Requirements for the 1996 Summer 
Olympic Games, Atlanta, GA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR), applicable 
May 15, 1996, through August 11, 1996, establishes airspace and flight 
operations requirements for the XXVI Olympic Games. The FAA believes 
this regulation is necessary for the security of the venues, safe 
operation, and management of aircraft operating to, within, and from 
these areas, and to prevent any unsafe congestion of sightseeing and 
other aircraft over the various game sites.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 13, 1996.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    The 1996 Olympic Games will be held from July 19 through August 4, 
1996, primarily in the Atlanta, Georgia, area and will mark the 100th 
anniversary of the modern Olympic Games. The event is the largest 
single, peace-time event in the history of the world. Over 350,000 
visitors a day are expected to attend the games. In terms of air 
traffic demand, the pregame, game, and postgame activities from July 19 
through August 4 are expected to generate substantial increases in 
aircraft operations in the Atlanta area as well as other sites in the 
United States. Those sites are:

The Olympic Village--Atlanta, GA
The Olympic Ring--Atlanta, GA
Wolf Creek Skeet Range--Atlanta, GA
Atlanta Beach--Jonesboro, GA
International Horsepark--Covington, GA
Stone Mountain Park--Stone Mountain, GA
Lake Sidney Lanier--Gainesville, GA
Sanford Stadium--Athens, GA
Golden Park--Columbus, GA
Lee College--Cleveland, TN
U.S. Highway 64--Tennessee
Ocoee River--Tennessee
Legion Field--Birmingham, AL
The Olympic Village--Savannah, GA
Sail Harbor and Wilmington River Transit Zone--Savannah, GA
Sailing Venue--Savannah, GA
The Citrus Bowl--Orlando, FL
The Orange Bowl--Miami, FL
RFK Stadium--Washington, DC
The Olympic Village--Davie, FL
The Olympic Village--Columbus, GA

The Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR)

    This rule establishes an SFAR to provide for the security of 
persons and property in the air and on the ground, and for the safe and 
efficient movement of air traffic during the Olympic period. To 
accomplish this goal, the SFAR is designed for flexibility and 
adaptability.

Traffic Management Arrival/Departure Slot Reservation System

    During the busy Olympic period, the FAA must ensure continued safe 
and efficient use of airspace and air traffic control capacity. To 
achieve this objective while minimizing disruption to the air traveling 
public, the FAA establishes an arrival/departure slot reservation 
system for fixed-wing aircraft to manage air traffic into and out of 
key airports in the Atlanta area.
    For purposes of this SFAR the following definitions apply: (1) 
Domestic air transportation (domestic)--the carriage by aircraft of 
persons or property as a common carrier for compensation or hire, or 
the carriage of mail by aircraft, in commerce originating in the United 
States and commencing any place within the United States. (2) Foreign 
air transportation (foreign)--the carriage by aircraft of persons or 
property as a common carrier for compensation or hire, or carriage of 
mail by aircraft, in commerce between a place in the United States and 
any place outside of the United States. (3) Scheduled operations--
foreign and domestic air carrier and cargo operations published in the 
Official Air Line Guide (OAG) as of June 30, 1996, and/or routine 
consistent operations operated same time, day and number of days per 
week as in regularly scheduled cargo operations. This category also 
includes additional operations by scheduled operators at the same 
airport if those operations are listed in the OAG as of June 30, 1996. 
(4) Non-scheduled operations--foreign and domestic charters and cargo 
operations not published in the OAG as of June 30, 1996, and/or not 
operated on a routine consistent basis during the same time, day and 
number of days per week, excluding helicopters. This category also 
includes additional operations by scheduled operators at the same 
airport that are not listed in the OAG as of June 30, 1996. (5) Other 
operations--all operations conducted by operators that do not hold 
either an air carrier certificate or an operating certificate for 
common carriage issued under SFAR 38-2 or Part 119 of the Federal 
Aviation Regulations or any operations conducted under Part 129 of the 
Federal Aviation Regulations. These operations exclude helicopters and 
include, but are not limited to, general aviation and business 
operations conducted under Part 91.
    The slot reservation system will be applicable to visual flight 
rules (VFR) arrivals at four specified airports, VFR departures at four 
specified airports, and to non-scheduled instrument flight rules (IFR) 
operations at 11 specified airports. As with most special events, 
airborne holding will not be authorized in lieu of a ground delay. 
Thus, aircraft without reservations may anticipate lengthy delays at 
departure airports.
    VFR arrival slot reservations are required for: Cobb County-
McCollum Field Airport (RYY), Marietta, GA; DeKalb-Peachtree Airport 
(PDK), Atlanta, GA; Fulton County-Brown Field Airport (FTY), Atlanta, 
GA; and Gwinnett County-Briscoe Field Airport (LZU), Lawrenceville, GA.
    VFR departure slot reservations are required for: Cobb County 
Airport-McCollum Field (RYY), Marietta, GA; DeKalb-Peachtree Airport 
(PDK), Atlanta, GA; Fulton County-Brown Field Airport (FTY), Atlanta, 
GA; and Gwinnett County-Briscoe Field Airport (LZU), Lawrenceville, GA.
    Non-scheduled IFR slot reservations are required for: Clayton 
County-Tara Field Airport (4A7), Hampton, GA; Cobb County-McCollum 
Field Airport (RYY), Marietta, GA; Covington Municipal Airport (9A1), 
Covington, GA; DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK), Atlanta, GA; Ben Epps 
Field Airport (AHN), Athens, GA; Peachtree City-Falcon Field Airport 
(FFC), Peachtree City, GA; Fulton County Airport-Brown Field Airport 
(FTY), Atlanta; GA; Lee Gilmer Memorial Airport (GVL), Gainesville, GA; 
Gwinnett County-Briscoe Field Airport (LZU), Lawrenceville, GA; the 
William B. Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport (ATL), Atlanta, GA; 
and Richard B. Russell Airport (RMG), Rome, GA.
    Beginning May 15, 1996, through June 30, 1996, non-scheduled 
operators may submit their request for slot reservations for the 
affected airports via Internet 

[[Page 5493]]
address [[email protected]] or facsimile number [(770) 946-
7938]. Request confirmations will be provided within 72 hours of 
receipt via the form of request. From the period July 1 through July 
13, 1996, the FAA will not receive any requests. However, beginning 
July 14, 1996, 7:00 a.m. (EDT), all operators can reserve VFR arrival 
and departure or IFR arrival and departure slots at these airports by 
calling 1-800-96FAA96 (1-800-963-2296), 24 hours a day. Reservation 
slots may be reserved no sooner than 72 hours before your estimated 
time of arrival or departure.
    The following information must be provided for all requests 
(reservation requests beginning May 15 through June 30, 1996, via 
Internet address or facsmile number, and via the telephone number as of 
July 14, 1996): Arrival Reservations: destination airport, estimated 
time of arrival, call sign, direction of arrival to the Atlanta area 
and type aircraft; Departure Reservations: departure airport, estimated 
time of departure, call sign, destination airport, first fix after 
departure and type aircraft; and Confirmation Method: operator's 
Internet address or facsimile number for return confirmation for 
arrival and departure reservations for those reservations processed 
prior to July 1, 1996.

Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) Areas

    The FAA establishes TFR areas over the Olympic Villages and 
competition sites. The establishment of TFR areas over the competition 
venues would result in the restriction of aircraft operations in these 
areas; however, access to these areas may be accommodated with an 
appropriate authorization from the designated using agency. Aircraft 
operating under exclusions approved by the Administrator are required 
to contact the designating using agency for appropriate authorization 
to enter a TFR. ATC will retain the ability to manage aircraft through 
the TFR areas in accordance with normal traffic flows.
    Operating restrictions within the airspace overlying competition 
venues are established for the period from three hours before to three 
hours after each event. The additional time that the restrictions are 
imposed, before and after each event, will accommodate the observation 
and planning of ground traffic movement as well as facilitate the 
orderly movement of aircraft in and through the airspace above each 
event. Flight operations will be restricted within the airspace from 
the surface to approximately 2500 feet above the ground (AGL) to 
provide a safe environment.
    These TFR areas generally will be circular areas of 1 to 4 NM in 
radius from the surface to approximately 2,500 AGL. Aircraft operations 
through, into, or out of these TFR areas will not be allowed during the 
effective dates and times unless specifically authorized by the 
designated using agency or ATC.
    The locations, dimensions, effective times of the TFR area will be 
published for use by all pilots on air navigation charts and in the 
Federal Register with specific details disseminated by NOTAM. Requests 
for access to the airspace areas can be obtained by contacting the 
using agency for the particular venue as designated via NOTAM.
    Certain Olympic venues fall within Class B surface area; 
specifically, RFK Stadium in Washington, DC, Wolf Creek Skeet Range in 
Atlanta, GA, and The Orange Bowl in Miami, Fl. These venues will be 
charted along with those outside of Class B airspace to ensure 
consistency.

Exceptions

    This SFAR contains provisions to provide flexible and efficient 
management and control of air tariff, such as the authority to give 
priority to or exclude from certain requirements of the special 
regulation, flight operations dealing with or containing essential 
military, medical emergency, rescue, law enforcement, public health and 
welfare, Presidential, Olympic family, and heads of state. However, 
regardless of any exclusion of a requirement of this SFAR, the 
requirement to contact the designated using agency for access to a TFR 
is mandatory.

Discussion of Comments

    The proposed Airspace and Flight Operations requirements for the 
1996 Summer Olympic Games were published in a notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NPRM) on December 29, 1995 (60 FR 67506).
    The FAA received seven written comments in reference to the NPRM. 
Responding to the notice were the Aircraft Owners and Pilots 
Association (AOPA), Federal Express (FedEx), Delta Air Lines, Air 
France, Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS), National Air Carrier 
Association, Inc. (NACA), and Georgia Emergency Management Agency 
(GEMA). AOPA commented that it does not oppose the establishment of 
TFRs and reservation requirements outlined in the NPRM. Several 
commenters supported the NPRM in concept and acknowledged that the slot 
reservations, as proposed, were essential.
    The following is representative of the issues presented to the 
docket: FedEx believes that the imposition of regulatory barriers would 
impede its ability to conduct special, non-scheduled air cargo 
operations into and out of Atlanta, GA. FedEx also expressed concern 
that the slot reservation program would adversely impact its ability to 
service the Atlanta area. As a result, FedEx recommends that scheduled 
cargo service operations be exempted from the slot reservation program.
    The FAA is unclear of FedEx's definition of `special non-scheduled' 
operation. The final rule specifies that Scheduled cargo operations, 
such as those conducted by FedEx, are exempt from the slot reservation 
program. The definition of a Scheduled operation includes domestic 
cargo operations that are routine consistent operations operated same 
time, day and number of days per week. Non-scheduled operations have 
the opportunity to request a slot beginning May 15 through June 30, 
1996, via Internet address or facsimile number or by telephone on July 
14, 1996. However, any operation not published in the OAG as of June 
30, 1996, and not operated in a routine consistent manner would 
constitute an operation under the Other category and would still 
require a slot reservation. Operations are restricted under this SFAR 
for the period July 17 through August 6, 1996.
    Delta Air Lines commented that since Atlanta is a primary hub for 
Delta, it is necessary that the following activities be conducted 
without meeting the slot reservation requirement: (1) pilot training 
conducted during Olympic off peak hours, (2) ferry flights into or out 
of Atlanta to meet contractual obligations, (3) unanticipated routine 
mechanical diversions, and (4) unanticipated aircraft diversions due to 
weather. Delta stated that these operations may result in an additional 
5 to 10 flights per day. Also, Delta commented that an additional 5 to 
10 commercial flights per day may be needed to accommodate Olympic 
traffic.
    The FAA has determined that flights conducted during off peak hours 
will have minimal problems operating within their preferred time; 
however, reservations will be required. For those unscheduled flights 
during peak Olympic hours, the FAA contends that slot reservations 
remain necessary for these operations to provide for the safe operation 
and management of aircraft operating to, within, and from these areas, 
and to prevent any unsafe 

[[Page 5494]]
congestion in the Atlanta area. Therefore, Delta's above-described 
activities will not be exempted from the requirements of this SFAR.
    Air France recognizes and supports the FAA's concern for the safety 
of operations during the Olympic games. However, Air France and SAS 
suggest that the language in the SFAR clarify the slot reservation 
requirements for Scheduled and Non-scheduled international operations. 
Air France suggested the establishment of a procedure that will allow 
carriers such as Air France to request a slot at least 120 days in 
advance of scheduled arrival or departure and allow for a trade of 
slots (one for one) but that the slots not be bought or sold.
    The FAA agrees with their request for clarification on the slot 
reservation requirements and has defined Scheduled, Non-scheduled, and 
Other operations in the rule. Furthermore, the rule specifies the 
procedures for Non-scheduled operations to request a slot reservation 
beginning May 15 through June 30, 1996, via Internet address or 
facsimile number. The telephone slot reservation system will be 
available to all operators starting July 14, 1996.
    The FAA disagrees with the request by Air France to allow 120 days 
in advance to request a slot reservation. The FAA contends that the 60 
days advance provision is adequate for Non-scheduled operations.
    The FAA agrees with Air France's request to trade slots on a (one-
for-one basis) and that slots should not be bought or sold. The FAA 
provides further clarification by restricting the trade of slots only 
within the same company or air carrier.
    NACA agrees that the slot reservation system is essential; however, 
it is concerned that all operations have equal access to slots and that 
those Scheduled operations not included in the OAG are not considered 
Scheduled for the purpose of this SFAR. NACA suggested that the 
submitted schedule for Miami Air International be included in the OAG 
information.
    The FAA has defined Scheduled operations to include those 
operations published in the OAG as of June 30, 1996, and/or routine 
consistent operations operated same time, day and number of days per 
week. Miami Air International will be treated on an equal and 
consistent basis as any other Non-scheduled operator. Miami Air 
International's schedule information may be submitted beginning May 15, 
1996, via Internet address or facsimile number. The FAA is unable to 
incorporate that schedule information under this SFAR rulemaking.
    GEMA objected to the proposed broad scope of exclusions to the SFAR 
that may be granted at the discretion of the Administrator listed in 
the amendatory section, section A.3(b) (1)-(8). GEMA commented that 
aircraft operating under an exemption of this SFAR could enter and exit 
the TFRs without any communication or coordination with the using 
agency. It stated that unidentified aircraft operating within the 
designated TFR area would present a major security problem. GEMA 
suggested exemptions not be granted under this paragraph.
    The FAA does not concur with GEMA's recommendation to disallow 
exclusion authority in this SFAR. The FAA believes that the exclusion 
authority is necessary for unusual situations and that it is imperative 
to have that authority in the interest of aviation safety. For 
additional clarification, the rule states that aircraft granted an 
exclusion to this SFAR are not relieved of the responsibility to 
contact the designated using agency for authorization prior to entering 
a TFR.
    In addition, GEMA recommended that VFR slot reservations not apply 
to public safety aircraft. It stated that many public safety flights 
are conducted in response to emergency situations for which there can 
be no prior coordination. The FAA responds that aircraft operating in 
an emergency capacity will be given priority handling and will not be 
required to obtain a slot reservation. An emergency operation would be 
handled the same as in today's air traffic environment.

Obtaining U.S. Air Navigation Charts

    The following provides information on how to obtain the special air 
navigation charts for the Olympic Games as well as other air navigation 
charts for use in the U.S.
    The National Ocean Service (NOS) publishes and distributes 
aeronautical charts of the U.S. National airspace system (NAS). Charts 
are readily available through a network of sales agents located at and 
near principal civil airports. Because of the large variety, all NOS 
products may not be available locally; users can procure these products 
directly from NOS. Chart prices, subscription rates, and catalogs of 
related publications are available on request and are obtainable by 
writing to: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National 
Ocean Service, Distribution Branch, N/CG33, Riverdale, Maryland 20737, 
USA, Phone (301) 436-6990--General Information: (301) 436-6993, 
Subscription Only: (301) 436-8194--One Time Sales Only.
    NOS products will be shipped via United Parcel Service, First Class 
Mail, or priority package within the U.S. For foreign surface shipment 
to addresses in other countries, please add 5 percent to the total cost 
of order. Please write to NOS for a transportation cost quotation if 
faster foreign delivery is required. All mail order purchases must be 
accompanied by check or money order made payable to ``NOS, Department 
of Commerce, N/CG33''. Remittance must be made in U.S. funds; i.e., by 
check payable on a U.S. bank, or by international money order. Returned 
checks will result in cancellation of orders.
    Chart sales offices are maintained at the following locations:

National Ocean Service, Chart Sales & Control Data Office, 701 C 
Street, Anchorage, Alaska 99513, USA
National Ocean Service, Chart Sales Office, 6501 Lafaytte Avenue, 
Riverdale, Maryland 20737, USA
Pacific Marine Center, National Ocean Service, 1801 Fairview Avenue 
East, Seattle, Washington 98102, USA
Atlantic Marine Center, National Ocean Service, 439 West York Street, 
Norfolk, Virginia 23510, USA.

    Chart prices are subject to recomputation, based on cost of 
production, in accordance with Federal law. Price changes, when 
required, will be published 60 days in advance of the effective date.
    The first of 13 charts that will show some of the Olympic TFR's 
will be published beginning with an effective date of February 1, 1996.

Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) Information

    ATC and air traffic flow management systems will monitor and assess 
the air traffic demand so that restrictions are kept to an essential 
minimum. To assure maximum flexibility, NOTAMs will be issued to 
announce all restrictions and other actions including the lifting of 
any restrictions taken by the FAA in response to changing airport and 
air traffic conditions.
    Time-critical aeronautical information that is of a temporary 
nature or is not sufficiently known in advance to permit publication on 
aeronautical charts or in other operational publications, receives 
immediate dissemination via the National NOTAM system. All domestic 
operators planning flight to the Olympics need to pay particular 
attention to NOTAM D and Flight Data Center (FDC) NOTAM information. 
NOTAM D information could affect a pilot's decision to make a flight. 
NOTAM D pertains to information on 

[[Page 5495]]
airports, runways, navigational aids, radar services, and other 
information essential to flight. An FDC NOTAM will contain information 
which is regulatory in nature, such as amendments to aeronautical 
charts and restrictions to flight. FDC NOTAM and NOTAM D information 
will also be provided to international operators in the form of 
International NOTAMs. NOTAMs are distributed through the National 
Communications Center in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, for transmission 
to all air traffic facilities having telecommunications access.
    Pilots and operators should consult the biweekly Notices to Airmen 
Domestic/International publication. This publication contains the NOTAM 
FDC and D NOTAMs. Special information, including graphics, will be 
published in the biweekly publication several weeks in advance of the 
Olympics. In addition, a booklet will be published detailing 
information about the different venues. Distribution will be the same 
as for the biweekly publication. For more detailed information 
concerning the NOTAM system, refer to the Aeronautical Information 
Manual, ``Preflight'' Section.

Other U.S. Laws and Regulations

    Aircraft operators should clearly understand that the SFAR is in 
addition to other laws and regulations of the U.S. The SFAR will not 
waive or supersede any U.S. law or obligation. When operating within 
the jurisdictional limits of the U.S., operators of foreign aircraft 
must conform with all applicable requirements of U.S. Federal, State, 
and local governments. In particular, aircraft operators planning 
flights into the U.S. must be aware of and conform to the rules and 
regulations established by the:
    1. U.S. Civil Aeronautics Board regarding flights entering the 
U.S.;
    2. U.S. Customs Service, Immigration and other authorities 
regarding customs, immigrations, health, firearms, and imports/exports;
    3. U.S. FAA regarding flight in or into U.S. airspace. This 
includes compliance with Federal Aviation Regulations regarding 
operations into or within the U.S. through air defense identification 
zones, and compliance with general flight rules; and
    4. Airport management authorities regarding use of airports and 
airport facilities.

Environmental Effects

    This rule establishes TFR areas for safety and security purposes 
and will curtail or limit certain aircraft operations within designated 
areas at defined dates and times, rather than require aircraft to be 
operated along specified routings or in accordance with specific 
procedures. Additionally, this regulation will be temporary in nature 
and effective only for the dates and times necessary to provide for the 
safety and protection of participants and spectators on the ground, as 
well as law enforcement and security personnel operating in the air at 
Olympic game venues. ATC will retain the ability to direct aircraft 
through the restricted areas in accordance with normal traffic flows. 
The FAA believes, therefore, that the establishment of temporary flight 
restriction areas will have minimal impact on ATC routings or 
procedures.
    Further, this action will result in a reduction in aircraft 
activity in the vicinity of the Olympic games by restricting aircraft 
operations. Therefore, there will be fewer aircraft operations in the 
vicinity of the Olympic games than will have occurred if the restricted 
areas were not in place and noise levels associated with that greater 
aircraft activity will also be reduced. Additionally, aircraft avoiding 
the restricted areas will not be routed over any specific area. This 
rule will, therefore, not result in any long-term action which will 
routinely route aircraft over noise-sensitive areas. For the reasons 
stated above, the FAA concludes that this rule will not significantly 
affect the quality of the human environment.

International Civil Aviation Organization and Joint Aviation 
Regulations

    In keeping with U.S. obligations under the Convention on 
International Civil Aviation, it is FAA policy to comply with 
International Civil Aviation organization Standards and Recommended 
Practices (SARP) to the maximum extent practicable.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 
104-13), the small amount of paper burden associated with the rule will 
be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget for review.

Regulatory Evaluation

    This regulatory evaluation examines the costs and benefits of the 
SFAR applicable for the period July 19 through August 4, 1996, the SFAR 
establishes TFR's overlying the various competition venues for the 1996 
Olympic games. This rule requires slot reservations for arrivals and 
departures at specified airports in the vicinity of the Olympics. Since 
the impacts of the changes are relatively minor this economic summary 
constitutes the analysis and no regulatory evaluation will be placed in 
the docket.

Costs and Benefits

    There are two major areas where economic impacts are likely: Slot 
Reservation System and Temporary Flight Restrictions.

A. Slot Reservation System

    During the Olympic period, the FAA must assure the continued safe 
and efficient use of airspace over the affected areas. To achieve this 
objective while minimizing disruption to the air traveling public, the 
FAA will establish an arrival and departure slot reservation system to 
manage air traffic into and out of airports serving the Olympic Games.
    As a result of the slot reservation system some flights may be 
canceled and others rerouted. The cost of the cancellations will be the 
value of the flights to airlines and passengers less aircraft operating 
cost to conduct the flights. Other flights may be diverted to other 
airports in the Olympic Games area. Diversions will result in 
additional costs of trips to and from places of intended lodging and 
possible extra aircraft operation costs. The major economic impact in 
the case of a diversion will be an inconvenience to operators who may 
have wanted to land at a given airport. Because such occurrences are of 
limited duration, the FAA believes that costs associated with any 
diversions from one airport to another in the affected area will 
probably be minimal. The additional FAA administrative workload 
generated by the rule will be absorbed by current personnel and 
equipment resources. The slot provision will not require any additional 
air traffic controllers nor additional radar control equipment.
    The benefits of the slot reservation system will be better control 
of the airspace over Atlanta and other areas affected by the Olympics. 
Arrivals are expected to increase 25 percent during the 3 weeks of the 
Olympic season. There will be an increased risk of accidents due to 
this unprecedented congestion in the Atlanta area if greater controls 
are not implemented. There is also the potential benefit of reduced 
delay times for operators attempting to land in the Atlanta area. The 
slot provision will assure that the FAA will have sufficient capacity 
to handle the many possible extra flights carrying spectators, 
athletes, media personnel, and dignitaries during the Olympic period 
without unnecessary delay.

[[Page 5496]]


B. Temporary Flight Restriction Areas

    Due to the substantial increase in aircraft operations that are 
expected in the Atlanta area as well as other sites, the FAA will 
establish TFR areas over the Olympic village and competition sites. The 
establishment of TFR's over competition venues will result in the 
restriction of aircraft operations from the surface to 2500 feet.
    The major economic impact of circumnavigation in this case will be 
an inconvenience to operators who may have wanted to operate within the 
area of the TFR. Because such occurrences are of limited duration and 
the restricted areas are limited in size, the FAA believes that any 
circumnavigation cots will be negligible. An aircraft operator could 
avoid the restricted airspace by flying over it without significantly 
deviating from their current routes or by circumnavigating the 
restricted airspace.
    The benefits of the TFR airspace primarily will be enhanced safety 
to the public. Enhanced safety will take the form of the reduced 
possibility of fatalities and property damage as a result of a lowered 
risk of accidents due to increased positive control of TFR airspace. 
While benefits cannot be quantified, the FAA believes the benefits are 
commensurate with the small costs attributed to the temporary 
inconvenience of the flight restrictions for operators near the TFR.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Determination

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA) ensures that 
government regulations do not needlessly and disproportionately burden 
small businesses. The RFA requires the FAA to review each rule that may 
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities.
    The FAA's criteria for a ``substantial number'' is a number that is 
not less than 11 and that is more than one third of the small entities 
subject to the rule. The small entities that could be potentially 
affected by the implementation of the proposed rule are operators of 
aircraft for hire owning nine or fewer aircraft. Because of the 
negligible impact of this regulatory action, the FAA initially 
determines that this proposed amendment would not have a significant 
impact on a substantial number of small entities.

Federalism Implications

    The regulation set forth herein will not have substantial direct 
effects on the States, on the relationship between the national 
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and 
responsibilities among the various levels of government. Therefore, in 
accordance with Executive Order 12612, it is determined that this 
regulation will not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant 
the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

International Trade Impact Assessment

    This rule will not constitute a barrier to international trade, 
including the export of U.S. goods and services to foreign countries 
and the import of foreign goods and services to the United States. This 
rule will not impose additional temporary costs to aircraft operators. 
There should be no effect on U.S. or foreign aircraft manufacturers. 
Therefore, the FAA has determined that the rule will neither have an 
effect on the sale of foreign aviation products nor services in the 
United States, nor will it have an effect on the sale of U.S. products 
or services in foreign countries.

Conclusion

    For the reasons discussed in the preamble, and based on the 
findings in the Regulatory Flexibility Determination and the 
International Trade Impact Assessment, the FAA has determined that this 
regulation is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive 
Order 12866. The FAA has determined that the rule will impose temporary 
additional costs to the public. The magnitude of these costs, while 
undetermined, are negligible. The benefits will be increased aviation 
safety resulting from a lower risk of accidents due to increased 
congestion during the Olympics. In addition, the FAA certifies that 
this regulation will not have a significant economic impact, positive 
or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the 
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. This regulation is not 
considered significant under DOT Order 2100.5, Policies and Procedures 
for Simplification, Analysis, and Review of Regulations. A Regulatory 
Flexibility Determination and International Impact Assessment are set 
out above. Because the economic impact of this rule is likely to be 
minimal, no formal regulatory evaluation has been prepared.

operations.

B. Slot Reservation System

1. General Description

    Slot reservations for arrivals and departures at specified 
airports in the vicinity of the Olympic Games are required for the 
period July 17 through August 6, 1996. The FAA believes this action 
is necessary for the security of the venues, safe operation and 
management of aircraft operating to, within, and from these areas, 
and to prevent any unsafe congestion of sightseeing and other 
aircraft over the various venues.

2. Definitions

    For purposes of this SFAR the following definitions apply:
    (a) Domestic air transportation (domestic)--the carriage by 
aircraft of persons or property as a common carrier for compensation 
or hire, or the carriage of mail by aircraft, in commerce 
originating in the United States and commencing any place within the 
United States.
    (b) Foreign air transportation (foreign)--the carriage by 
aircraft of persons or property as a common carrier for compensation 
or hire, or carriage of mail by aircraft, in commerce between a 
place in the United States and any place outside of the United 
States.
    (c) Scheduled operations--foreign and domestic air carrier and 
cargo operations published in the Official Air Line Guide (OAG) as 
of June 30, 1996, and/or routine consistent operations operated same 
time, day and number of days per week as in regularly scheduled 
cargo operations. This category also includes additional operations 
by scheduled operators at the same airport if those operations are 
listed in the OAG as of June 30, 1996.
    (d) Non-scheduled operations--foreign and domestic charters and 
cargo operations not published in the OAG as of June 30, 1996, and/
or not operated on a routine consistent basis during the same time, 
day and number of days per week, excluding helicopters. This 
category also includes additional operations by scheduled operators 
at the same airport that are not listed in the OAG as of June 30, 
1996.
    (e) Other operations--all operations conducted by operators that 
do not hold either an air carrier certificate or an operating 
certificate for common carriage issued under SFAR 38-2 or part 119 
of the Federal Aviation Regulations or any operations conducted 
under part 129 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. These operations 
exclude helicopters and include, but are not limited to, general 
aviation and business operations conducted under part 91.

3. Method

    Beginning May 15 through June 30, 1996, non-scheduled operations 
may submit their request for slot reservations for the affected 
airports via Internet address [[email protected]] or 
facsimile number [(770) 946-7938]. Request confirmation will be 
provided within 72 hours of receipt via the form of request. From 
the period July 1 through July 13, 1996, the FAA will not receive 
any requests.
    Beginning July 14, 1996, 7:00 a.m. (EDT), all operators can 
reserve VFR arrival and departure or IFR arrival and departure slots 
at these airports by calling 1-800-96FAA96 (963-2296), 24 hours a 
day. Reservation slots may be reserved no sooner than 72 hours 
before your estimated time of arrival or departure.

4. Necessary Information

    The following information must be provided for all requests 
(reservation requests beginning May 15 through June 30, 1996, via 
Internet address or facsimile number, and via the telephone number 
as of July 14, 1996): Arrival Reservations: destination airport, 
estimated time of arrival, call sign, direction of arrival to the 
Atlanta area and type aircraft; Departure Reservations: departure 
airport, estimated time of departure, call sign, destination 
airport, first fix after departure and type aircraft; Confirmation 
Method: operator's Internet address or facsimile number for return 
confirmation for arrival and departure reservations.

5. Affected Airports

    For purposes of the SFAR:
    (a) Airports and airspace areas associated with Olympic activity 
which require restriction or prohibition of aviation activity will 
be designated in NOTAMs issues pursuant to this SFAR.
    (b) Airports listed below and in NOTAMs issued pursuant to this 
SFAR are identified as:

C. Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) Areas

    The FAA establishes TFR areas over the Olympic Village and 
competition sites. The establishment of TFR areas over the 
competition venues will result in the restriction of aircraft 
operations in these areas; however, access to these areas may be 
accommodated with an appropriate authorization from the designated 
using agency. Aircraft operating under exclusions approved by the 
Administrator are required to contact the designated using agency 
for appropriate authority to enter a TFR. ATC will retain the 
ability to manage aircraft through the TFR areas in accordance with 
normal traffic flow.
    Operating restrictions within the airspace overlying competition 
venues are for the period from 3 hours before to 3 hours after each 
event. The additional time that the restrictions are to be imposed, 
before and after each event, will accommodate the observation and 
planning of ground traffic movement as well as facilitate the 
orderly movement of aircraft in and through the airspace above each 
event. Flight operations will be restricted within the airspace from 
the surface to approximately 2500 feet AGL to provide a safe 
environment.
    At the following locations, flight is restricted during the 
times of designation:
