SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Correction

    In proposed rule FR Doc. 00-14524, published on June 21, 2000 (65 
FR 38636), make the following corrections:
    1. On page 38654, in the second column, fifth full paragraph, line 
one, correct ``Similar to proposed Sec. 139.317(1)'' to read ``Similar 
to proposed Sec. 139.317(k).''
    2. On page 38673, in the second column, correct Sec. 139.111 by 
revising paragraphs (s),(b), and (c) to read as follows:


Sec. 139.111  Exemptions.

    (a) An applicant or a certificate holder may petition the 
Administrator under 14 CFR 11, General Rulemaking Procedures, of this 
chapter for an exemption from any requirement of this part.
    (b) Under 49 U.S.C. 44706(c), the Administrator may exempt an 
applicant or a certificate holder that enplanes annually less than one-
quarter of 1 percent of the total number of passengers enplaned at all 
air carrier airports from all, or part, of the aircraft rescue and 
firefighting equipment requirements of this part, on the grounds that 
compliance with those requirements is, or would be, unreasonably 
costly, burdensome, or impractical. An applicant for, or holder of, an 
airport operating certificate filing for such an exemption shall use 
the format prescribed under Sec. 139.321.
    (c) Each petition filed under section must be submitted in 
duplicate to the--

per 14 CFR 11.
    3. On page 38677, in the first and second columns correct 
Sec. 139.137 by removing paragraph (f); and by redesignating paragraphs 
(g) through (1) as (f) through (k); and by revising newly designated 
paragraph (f)(3) to read as follows:


Sec. 139.317  Aircraft rescue and firefighting: Equipment and agents.

* * * * *
    (f) * * *
    (3) Notwithstanding the requirements of paragraph (f) of this 
section, any certificate holder whose aircraft rescue and firefighting 
vehicles are not equipped with turrets or do not have the discharge 
capacity required in this section, but otherwise met the requirements 
of this part on December 31, 1987, need not comply with paragraph (f) 
of this section for a particular vehicle until that vehicle is replaced 
or rehabilitated.
