Supplementary Information
On February 12, 1996, the FAA published SFAR No. 74 in the Federal Register (61 FR 5492), which establishes airspace and flight operations requirements for the XXVI Olympic Games. This regulation is to provide for security of the venues, safe operations, and efficient management of air traffic to, within, and from these areas, and to prevent an unsafe congestion of sightseeing and other aircraft over the various games sites. Paragraph A.3 of SFAR No. 74 contains provisions to provide flexible and efficient management and control of air traffic, such as the authority to give priority to or exclude from certain requirements of
the SFAR flight operations dealing with essential military, medical and rescue, essential public health and welfare, Presidential and Vice Presidential delegations, visiting heads of state, the Olympic Committee and media whose planned activities have been coordinated with and accredited by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games and law enforcement and security officials. As circumstances may warrant, it may be necessary for the appropriate Regional Administrator to exercise the authority as stated above and provided for in paragraph A.3 of SFAR No. 74. This delegation will enable the Regional Administrator for the Southern Region to administer the provisions of paragraph A.3. of SFAR No. 74.
Delegation
Accordingly, I hereby delegate my authority to administer paragraph A.3. of SFAR No. 74 to the Regional Administrator of the Southern Region.
Issued in Washington, DC on June 3, 1996. David R. Hinson, Administrator. [FR Doc. 96-17588 Filed 7-9-96; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910-13-M
