Oberstar Ranking Minority Member Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure House of Representatives Subject: Department of Transportation, Office of the Secretary: Procedures for Compensation of Air Carriers Pursuant to section 801(a) (2) (A) of title 5, United States Code, this is our report on a major rule promulgated by the Department of Transportation (DOT), Office of the Secretary, entitled Procedures for Compensation of Air Carriers (RIN: 2105-AD06). We received the rule on January 14, 2002. It was published in the Federal Register as a final rule on January 2, 2002. 67 Fed. Reg. 250. The final rule amends the DOT rule published on October 29, 2001 (66 Fed.

The Act authorized $5 billion in compensation to air carriers for direct and incremental losses incurred as a result of the September 11, 2001, attacks. Enclosed is our assessment of the DOT's compliance with the procedural steps required by section 801(a)(1)(B)(i) through (iv) of title 5 with respect to the rule. Our review indicates that DOT complied with the applicable requirements. If you have any questions about this report, please contact James W. Vickers, Assistant General Counsel, at (202) 512-8210.
