SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024, Public Law 118-63 (2024) (the
Act), amended Title 49 United States Code (U.S.C.) 44736 by imposing
several provisions specific to the FAA's oversight of ODA holders.
Section 304 of the Act added paragraph (g), Ethics Training Requirement
for ODA Holders, to 49 U.S.C. 44736. Paragraph (g) requires the FAA to
ensure that each ODA holder has in effect a recurrent training program,
reviewed by the FAA, for all ODA unit personnel. Paragraph (g) also
requires all ODA unit personnel to complete such ethics training within
sixty days of appointment and annually thereafter and requires the FAA
to establish the necessary processes to ensure that this training
occurs. Draft Notice N 8100.20 would implement the new statutory
requirement for ODA holders to develop and provide, and for all ODA
unit personnel to take, initial and recurrent ethics training. The FAA
intends that the policies contained in draft Notice N 8100.20 will be
incorporated into a future revision of FAA Order 8100.15, Organization
Designation Authorization Procedures.
Draft Notice N 8100.20 would affect all ODA holders. You may
examine draft Notice N 8100.20 and an optional comment log template
that may be helpful for providing comments in the docket or at: <a href="https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/draft_docs/">https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/draft_docs/</a>.
