14 CFR Part 1214


Special Policy on Small Self-Contained Payloads (SSCP's) By 
Domestic Educational Institutions

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Interim final rule.

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

SUMMARY: NASA is removing its rule on special policy on small, self-
contained payloads (SSCP's) by domestic educational institutions. This 
rule, in effect since December 21, 1992, offered lower prices, relative 
to other users, for standard launch services for SSCP's sponsored by 
domestic educational institutions that agreed to certain provisions and 
could meet certain criteria. NASA plans to issue a new policy to reduce 
further the price for SSCP standard launch services for

qualifying domestic educational institutions.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 23, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lynda Cywanowicz, 202-358-1673.

originally published at 57 FR 61794, December 29, 1992, and was 
codified in the Code of Federal Regulations at 14 CFR part 1214, 
subpart 1214.10. The proposed new policy will be published separately 
in the Federal Register, for notice and comment, before becoming a 
final rule.
