US HR 4441 - Aviation Innovation, Reform, and Reauthorization Act of 2016

On February 11, 2016 NAR as part of an industry coalition sent a letter to the Chair and Ranking Member of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. The letter urged the Committee’s support for the bipartisan “Cohen_091 Amendment” to the Aviation Innovation, Reform and Reauthorization Act of 2016. The amendment would require the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to follow notice and comment procedures that must accompany any agency rulemaking, in the context of a rule change regarding its so-called One Engine Inoperative (OEI) standards for navigable airspace.
