Protective Breathing Equipment; Correction

This document contains a correction to the Protective Breathing Equipment final rule, 61 FR 43918, published August 26, 1996. The rule amended the regulations governing portable protective breathing equipment (PBE) required for crewmembers' use in combating in-flight fires. It is intended to codify exemptions currently in place, clarify ambiguities in the existing regulation, and allow air carriers added flexibility with compliance while maintaining or increasing safety. This action will correct the final rule statement that removes paragraph (d)(1) of Sec. 121.337, since paragraph (d) of Sec. 121.337 was removed as a result of the Commuter Operations and General Certification and Operations Requirement final rule, 60 FR 665832, published December 20, 1995.
