14 CFR Part 121

[Docket No. FAA-1998-4521; Amendment No. 121-332]
RIN 2120-AF07


Drug and Alcohol Testing Requirements; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a technical amendment to its drug and 
alcohol testing requirements published on March 15, 2007 (72 FR 12082). 
The purpose of the technical amendment was to conform those 
requirements to the National Air Tour Safety Standards. In one 
paragraph of the regulation, we inadvertently referred to an ``antidrug 
program,'' when we should have referred to an ``Alcohol Misuse 
Prevention Program.''

DATES: Effective June 7, 2007.

Manager, Drug Abatement Division, Office of Aerospace Medicine, 800

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On March 15, 2007 (72 FR 12082), we published a technical amendment 
that updated several references in the FAA's drug and alcohol testing 
regulations in title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), 
part 121, appendices I and J. The technical amendment was necessary 
because amendments in the National Air Tour Safety Standards final rule 
(72 FR 6884; Feb. 13, 2007) redefined terms used in the drug and 
alcohol testing regulations.
    In the technical amendment, we changed the language in several 
charts in part 121, appendix J. When we changed the language in section 
VII.B.3.b., we inadvertently referred to an ``antidrug program,'' when 
we should have referred to an ``Alcohol Misuse Prevention Program.'' 
Appendix J applies to alcohol testing programs, not drug testing 
programs.

Accordingly, 14 CFR part 121 is corrected by making the following
