reserved at W ashington National Airport (WNA) in accord
ance with the FAA’s High Density Rule.
B. W hy significant: This proposal is considered a signifi
cant rulemaking project due to substantial public interest
and potential costs to airlines.
C. Analysis: Regulatory Im p act Analysis........ ..... ....................
D. Need: The Civil Aeronautics Board and the Department
of Justice have expressed concerns about continuing the
antitrust immunity under which the airline scheduling com
m ittees currently allocate slots at WNA. A new method of
allocation may become necessary.
E. Legal basis: Sections 103, 306, 307(a), (b), and (c), and
313(a), Federal Aviation Act o f 1958, as amended (49
U.S.C. §§ 1303, 1347, 1348(a), (b), and (c), and 1354(a));

Administration of Washington National Airport, 54 Stat.

F. Chronology: The CAB in conjunction with the FAA
commissioned the Polinomics Research Laboratories,
Inc., to research the allocation problem. A report of its
findings has been prepared. Another report by Econ, Inc.
analyzing a slot allocation auction procedure has been
prepared under an FAA contract. O n A u gust 15, 1980,

B. W hy S ig n ific a n t This issue concerns a m atter on which
there is substantial public interest and controversy and

C. A nalysis: (Regulatory Evaluation..................— ....................
D. Need: This rule would substantially increase the number
of active, informed, and independent participants at many
rulemaking proceedings within the Department, thereby
increasing the diversity and balance o f views presented
to the Departm ent and enhancing the Department’s
knowledge of the interests likely to be affected by its
proposed rules.
E. Legal A u th o rity : The Department’s rulemaking authority
under the Department of Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C.
1651 e ts e q ., and related statutes.
F. C hronology: On Jan. 13, 1977, the Department pub
lished regulations for a one-year dem onstration program
to provide financial assistance to certain participants in
rulemaking proceedings o f NHTSA. (42 FR 2863). A t the
same tim e, the Department issued an ANPRM, inviting
public comments on the feasibility, wisdom, and scope of
a permanent Department-wide program o f financial as
sistance. Upon conclusion o f the demonstration program,
NHTSA evaluated the program and recommended that
the Department establish an amended version o f the
program throughout the Departm ent On March 16,1978,
the dem onstration program in NHTSA was extended until
the Secretary decided whether to issue final, permanent
Departmental regulations (43 FR 10918). On January 23,
1979, the regulation governing the NHTSA financial as
sistance demonstration program was revised to improve
its adm inistration. The Department is not in a position at
this tim e to proceed with the issuance o f an NPRM in
view o f the action taken by Congress, on the Depart
ment’s Fiscal Year 1981 appropriations. The D epart
m e n t’s F Y 1981 Appropriations A c t prohibits th e funding

Nondiscrimination on the Basis of A. Description: The Department is considering certain addi Robert C. Ashby, NPRM M a y 1981.
Handicap. tions and changes to its rules forbidding discrim ination (202) 426-4723.
against handicapped persons in DOT programs. This
rulemaking package w ill consist of two parts: (1) an
NPRM that would amend section 27.71 of the existing
DOT section 504 rule, to clarify requirements pertaining
to Federally-assisted airports; (2) an NPRM that would
add a new section 27.77 to the 504 rule, to cover
financial assistance programs of NHTSA.
B. W hy S ig n ific an t The section 504 rule is a controversial
regulation affecting all parts of DOT as well as many
providers and users of DOT-funded or operated pro
grams. Additions and changes to the rule w ill be of
considerable interest to the public.

Service Rule (33 CFR Part 161, 125,000 dead weight tons (DWT) from entering Puget (202) 755-6146.
Subpart B; App. A). Sound. This interim rule took effect in 1978. The purpose
of the regulation was to protect against environmental
harm from oil or polluting material spills that result from
vessel damage, destruction and loss. This interim rule
has been extremely controversial. It is favored by environ
m entalists and opposed by o il industry and shipping
groups. Presently, tests are being conducted by the
Coast Guard, in the area, to determine the risks of tanker
/ spillage.
# Marine Sanitation Devices on These regulations govern the design and construction of Mr. Bruce Novack, duly 1981.
Vessels (33 CFR Part 159. marine sanitation devices in accordance with the regula (202) 426-1477.
tions and performance standards promulgated by the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under section
312 Of the Federal W ater Pollution Control Act. They also
contain the procedures by which Coast Guard enforces
its own and EPA standards pertaining to these devices.
The purpose of the regulations is to elim inate the dis
charge of untreated sewage from vessels into the waters
of the United States. This is one of the Coast Guard’s
most controversial regulations. The Coast Guard esti
mates the annual cost of the rule to be $100,000,000.
The Coast Guard estimates the cost of retrofitting boats
with these devices to be $1,000,000,000. The regulation
is appropriate for review because of its cost and because
of its unpopularity with boat owners. Any revision of the
regulation, however, w ill require coordination with the
EPA.
# Documentation and Admeas These regulations implement several very Old vessel docu Mr. J. Lewis, July 1981.
urement of Vessels (46 CFR mentation laws. Those laws stipulate that commercial (202) 426-2192.
Subchapter G). vessel owners must obtain documentation on their ves
sels from the Coast Guard. The implementing regulations
are considered burdensome because they contain ex
trem ely heavy paperwork requirements. Until now, the
annual public cost of documentation has been 750,000
person-hours of paperwork. However, the 96th Congress
enacted legislation (P.L. 96-594) that w ill allow the Coast
Guard to prescribe sim plified documentation procedures
that would eliminate a large portion of the paperwork
requirements. This law w ill be effective on July 1,1962.
• Pollution Prevention Regula These regulations were promulgated pursuant to 46 U.S.C. Mr. J. Angelo, July 1981.
tions (33 CFR Part 157). 391 a(7) (Port and Tanker Safety Act) (PTSA). The regula (202) 426-4432.
tions require segregated ballast tanks, clean ballast
tanks, and crude oil washing systems in various combina
tions for oil tankers. The purpose of the regulations is to
prevent pollution. The PTSA also requires a regulation to
be promulgated by January 1, 1986, that would require
retrofitting of United States flag vessels of between
20-40,000 tons that are 15 years old or older with these
pollution prevention systems. The Coast Guard initially
calculates the cost w ill be $5-6 billion over a period oil
20-30 years. These regulations should be reviewed be
cause of their cost. Also there has been, in the past,
some opposition from tank vessel owners. However, the
PTSA is fairly specific in requiring certain pollution pre
vention systems and legislation may be needed.

# Vessel Reporting Require These regulations were also developed and promulgated Mr. Bruce Novack, July 1981.
ments (33 CFR Part 161). pursuant to the PTSA. They require vessel owners to (202) 426-1477.
V report their locations, arrivals and departures when carry
ing certain hazardous cargoes. The barge industry and
certain boat owners in the past, have opposed these
regulations. This regulation should be reviewed because
of its controversy and impact on the barge and towing
' industry.
• Navigation Safety Regulations These regulations were promulgated pursuant to the PTSA Mr. Tom Evans, July 1981.
(33 CFR Part 164). (46 U.S.C. 391a). The implementing regulations require (202) '426-2262.
that commercial tank vessels carry dual radar systems
and redundant (back-up) steering systems. The cost is
estimated to be $50,000 per tank vessel on a one-time
only basis. Again, the PTSA is fairly specific in its require
ments, but a review is warranted because of controversia-
lity with vessel owners and costs.

Operating Rules (14 CFR Parts siderable period of time while rotorcraft technology has (202) 755-8716.
27, 29, 91 and 127). steadily advanced. These regulations are currently under
review for the purpose of updating them. They are clearly
costly and controversial. These rules are costly because
they apply some inappropriate fixed-wing airplane require
ments to rotorcraft. Because they may not adequately
recognize many of the unique operating characteristics
and environments of rotorcraft, as compared to fixed-wing
airplanes, they have been subjected to extensive criticism
from manufacturers and operators who seek the elimina

niques. The age lim itations and expenence requirements
to qualify for pilot certification may be unduly burdensome
and in need of change. The need for separate regulations
for the certification of pilots, pilot schools, and gound
instructors may no longer be necessary. These separate
rules may create inconsistencies in pilot training and
testing methods and result in unequal treatm ent of appli
cants for pilot certificates.
# Air Carrier Certification, Oper These rules are costly and some are controversial. Require W illiam Sullivan, July 1981.

reporting requirements, contained in this set of rules,
impose significant costs on air carrier certificate holders.
The disparities between the large air carrier and the small
air taxi and communter airline operating rules may be
eliminated where appropriate and more unified rules can
be developed. At the tim e of a recent major revision to air
taxi and commuter airline operating rules, a commitment
was made to review and update the operating rules to
correct apparent disparities. Review of these regulations
would accomplish this necessary goal.

System Rules (14 CFR Part 21). because holders o f production certificates must adhere to (202) 755-8716.
stringent quality control standards, including establishing
a quality control organization and, sometimes, testing
each item produced. The rules also involve considerable
paperwork burdens. They are controversial because man
ufacturers other than the original manufacturer can pro
duce replacement parts for aeronautical products by com
plying with less stringent standards than imposed on the
original manufacturer. Some argue that the rules are
anticom petitive in nature.
# Deregulation of Sport Aviation Operation and construction o f sport aircraft under the pres W illiam Sullivan, July 1981.

owner-pilots of these aircraft because of the requirement
that these aircraft meet the same airworthiness standards
as factory-built aircraft and be maintained to the same
standards. There is a substantial cost to the FAA to
monitor this segment of the aviation community. It is
controversial because, fundamentally, sport aviation en
thusiasts perceive themselves to be greatly over regulat
ed in relation to their impact on aviation safety.
# Normal, Utility, and Acrobatic These rules are costly because of the extra and possibly W illiam Sullivan, July 1981.
Category Airworthiness Rules unnecessary, expenses o f administration and certification (202) 755-8716.

same reason. The rules appiy the same certification

though they cover all kinds of small airplanes, from the
most rudimentary to very sophisticated and complex
multi-engine airplanes.

of burdensome paperwork requirements and, on the
whole, they impact heavily on small businesses. These
regulations have never been thoroughly reviewed.

hours interstate truck drivers can drive and be on duty in
a given day or week. Its rationale is that long hours mean
tired drivers, and that tired drivers are more likely to be in
accidents. The principal monitoring and enforcement
device for this rule is the “ driver’s log,” in which drivers
record their activities. FHWA has been gathering data on
the relationship between driver fatigue and accidents, and
on the economic impact o f changing the rule, pursuant to
a 7 Mi year-old rulemaking petition from a drivers’ group to
further restrict hours of service. Litigation involving this
regulation is also pending. A review is needed to focus on
the safety justification for the present lim itation, economic
effects of relaxing present requirements, and, most impor
tantly, finding a less burdensome, more cost-effective
enforcement mechanism than the driver's log.

to require operators to give sufficient attention to mainte
nance of their vehicles, since sloppy maintenance can
cause accidents. The rule was controversial when it was
promulgated in 1979. One focus o f a review would be on
ways o f reducing recordkeeping an reporting require

addition of section 232.19 in 1972 to accommodate run- »
through trains operated by more than one railroad, the
Power Brake Rules have not been changed since they
were issued in 1958. Because of subsequent changes in
railroad operations and technological advances, a major
restructuring of these rules to make them consonant with
the present railroad operating environment and to provide
more flexibility in achieving safety and operating efficien
cy is needed. FRA roughly estimates the current require

al cars with defective safety appliances (e.g., handholds,
ladders, sill steps, uncoupling levers) and defective
brakes. For example, cars with these defects may only be p
moved for purposes of repair to the nearest repair point
on the same railroad that discovered the defect. Many of
these statutory requirements are counterproductive from
the standpoint of safety and increase accident possibili
ties. They also result in considerable delays for shippers
and expense to the railroad industry. Elimination of these
statutory requirements would enable cars with these de
fects to be handled in the same manner as cars with
other defects now covered In 49 CFR Part 215. Amend
ments to these statutory requirements may necessitate
regulatory revisions. FRA roughly estimates that these
statutory requirements could cost the railroads more than
