Abstract
This rule requires operators of certificated airports to conduct one-time operational readiness checks of certain airfield equipment and systems on, or shortly after, January 1, 2000, and report the results of these checks to the FAA. In addition, this rule temporarily revises the time period these airport operators have to repair or replace certain emergency equipment. These temporary requirements are needed to ensure that operators of certificated airports maintain safety by identifying and addressing any unforeseen problems with date-sensitive equipment and systems at the earliest practical time after January 1, 2000.
