Submission of Deadline for International Slots for the Summer 2001 Scheduling Season

AGENCY:

Department of Transportation, FAA.

ACTION:

Notice of submission deadline.

SUMMARY:

On October 1, 1999, the FAA amended the regulations governing takeoff and landing slots and slot allocation procedures at certain High Density Traffic Airports as a result of the “Open Transborder” Agreement between the Government of the United States and the Government of Canada. One element of this final rule established that the deadline for submission of requests for international slots will be published in a Federal Register notice for each scheduling season. The purpose of the amendment is for the FAA deadline for international slots requests to coincide with the International Air Transport Association deadline for submission of international requests. In accordance with this amendment, the FAA announces in this notice that the deadline for submitting requests for international slots for allocation under 14 CFR 93.217 is October 15, 2000.

DATES:

Requests for international slots must be submitted no later than October 15, 2000.
