DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration


RTCA Government/Industry NextGen Advisory Committee

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of RTCA Charter Renewal.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is issuing this notice to advise the public of the 
renewal of the RTCA Charter (FAA Order 1110.77T) for two years, 
effective April 2, 2011. The administrator is the sponsor of the 
committee. The objective of the advisory committee is to seek solutions 
to issues and challenges involving air transportation concepts, 
requirements, operational capabilities, and the associated use of 
technology and related considerations to aeronautical operations that 
impact the future Air Traffic Management System. RTCA provides the 
following two categories of recommendations to the FAA: Broad gauged 
policy and investment priority recommendations used by FAA when 
considering policy and program decisions; and minimum performance 
standards, reports, and guidance documents used by the FAA in 
regulatory decisions and rulemaking. Government regulatory and 
procurement practices reference or use RTCA standards (with or without 
change). The Secretary of Transportation has determined that that 
information and use of committee are necessary in the public interest 
in connection with the performance of duties imposed on the FAA by law.
