§ 125.35

Amendment of operations 

specifications. 

(a) The responsible Flight Standards 

office charged with the overall inspec-
tion of the certificate holder may 
amend any operations specifications 
issued under this part if— 

(1) It determines that safety in air 

commerce requires that amendment; or 

(2) Upon application by the holder, 

the responsible Flight Standards office 
determines that safety in air com-
merce allows that amendment. 

(b) The certificate holder must file 

an application to amend operations 
specifications at least 15 days before 
the date proposed by the applicant for 
the amendment to become effective, 
unless a shorter filing period is ap-
proved. The application must be on a 
form and in a manner prescribed by the 
Administrator and be submitted to the 
responsible Flight Standards office 
charged with the overall inspection of 
the certificate holder. 

(c) Within 30 days after a notice of re-

fusal to approve a holder’s application 
for amendment is received, the holder 
may petition the Executive Director, 
Flight Standards Service, to reconsider 
the refusal to amend. 

(d) When the responsible Flight 

Standards office charged with the over-
all inspection of the certificate holder 
amends operations specifications, the 
responsible Flight Standards office 
gives notice in writing to the holder of 
a proposed amendment to the oper-
ations specifications, fixing a period of 
not less than 7 days within which the 
holder may submit written informa-
tion, views, and arguments concerning 
the proposed amendment. After consid-
eration of all relevant matter pre-
sented, the responsible Flight Stand-
ards office notifies the holder of any 
amendment adopted, or a rescission of 
the notice. That amendment becomes 
effective not less than 30 days after the 
holder receives notice of the adoption 
of the amendment, unless the holder 
petitions the Executive Director, 
Flight Standards Service, for reconsid-
eration of the amendment. In that 
case, the effective date of the amend-
ment is stayed pending a decision by 
the Executive Director. If the Execu-
tive Director finds there is an emer-
gency requiring immediate action as to 
safety in air commerce that makes the 
provisions of this paragraph impracti-
cable or contrary to the public inter-
est, the Executive Director notifies the 
certificate holder that the amendment 
is effective on the date of receipt, with-
out previous notice.
