49 CFR Part 1548

[Docket No. TSA-2004-19515; Amendment Nos. 1548-2]
RIN 1652-AA23


Air Cargo Security Requirements; Correction

AGENCY: Transportation Security Administration (TSA), DHS.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document makes a correction to the final rule published 
in the Federal Register on May 26, 2006. That rule enhances and 
improves the security of air cargo transportation by requiring airport 
operators, aircraft operators, foreign air carriers, and indirect air 
carriers to implement security measures in the air cargo supply chain 
as directed under the Aviation and Transportation Security Act. The 
final rule also amends the applicability of the requirement for a 
``twelve-five'' security program for aircraft with a maximum 
certificated takeoff weight of 12,500 pounds or more to those aircraft 
with a maximum certificated takeoff weight of more than 12,500 pounds 
to conform to recent legislation. TSA inadvertently left out the 
amendatory instruction to remove the word ``passenger'' in Sec.  
1548.1. This document adds this amendatory change to part 1548.

DATES: Effective October 23, 2006.
