RIN 2120-AJ87


Pilot Professional Development; Technical Amendment; Correction.

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; correction of a technical amendment.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is correcting a final rule technical amendment 
published on June 30, 2020 (85 FR 39069). In that final rule, which 
became effective on the date of publication, the FAA corrected errors 
in regulatory cross references associated with the Pilot Professional 
Development final rule. The FAA inadvertently listed an incorrect 
amendment number for the final rule technical amendment. This document 
corrects that error.

DATES: July 24, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Good Cause for Adoption Without Prior Notice

    Section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 
U.S.C. 551 et seq.) authorizes agencies to dispense with notice and 
comment procedures for rules when the agency for ``good cause'' finds 
that those procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to 
the public interest.'' Section 553(d)(3) of the APA requires that 
agencies publish a rule not less than 30 days before its effective 
date, except as otherwise provided by the agency for good cause found 
and published with the rule.
    Because this action merely makes a correction to the amendment 
number of a published final rule technical amendment, the FAA finds 
that notice and public comment under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary. 
For the same reason, the FAA finds that good cause exists under 5 
U.S.C. 553(d) for making this rule effective in less than 30 days.

Background

    On February 25, 2020, the FAA published the Pilot Professional 
Development final rule (85 FR 10896). After that rule was published, 
the FAA discovered two minor errors in Sec. Sec.  121.409 and 121.424 
of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations that required 
correction. Those errors were corrected in a technical amendment 
published June 30, 2020 (85 FR 39069). In the technical amendment, the 
FAA listed the amendment number as 121-282B.

Correction

    In the final rule, FR Doc. 2020-12170, published on June 30, 2020, 
at 85 FR 39069, make the following correction:
    1. On page 39069 in the heading of the final rule, revise ``Amdt. 
No. 121-282B'' to read ``121-384''.
    Issued under authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 106(g), 
44701(a), and Sec. 206 of Public Law 111-216, 124 Stat. 2348 (49 U.S.C. 
44701 note) in Washington, DC, on July 9, 2020.
