The Future of Aviation Advisory
Committee (FAAC) Subcommittee on
Labor and World-Class Workforce;
Notice of Meeting
Office of the Secretary of
Transportation, Department of
Transportation.
ACTION: The Future of Aviation
Advisory Committee (FAAC)
Subcommittee on Labor and World-class
Workforce; amendment to notice of
meeting.
AGENCY:

The Department of
Transportation (DOT), Office of the
Secretary of Transportation, announced
a meeting of the FAAC Subcommittee
on Labor and World-class Workforce,
which will be held via teleconference. A
call-in number and pass code will be
issued upon registration. This notice
announced the date and time of the
meeting, which will be open to the
public. The purpose of the FAAC is to
provide advice and recommendations to
the Secretary of Transportation to
ensure the competitiveness of the U.S.
aviation industry and its capability to
effectively manage the evolving
transportation needs, challenges, and
opportunities of the global economy.
The subcommittee is charged with
ensuring the availability and quality of
a workforce necessary to support a
robust, expanding commercial aviation
industry in light of the changing socioeconomic dynamics of the world’s
technologically advanced economies.
Among other matters, the subcommittee
will examine three issues affecting the
future employment requirements of the
aviation industry: (1) The need for
science, technology, engineering, and
math skills in the industry; (2) the
creation of a culture of dignity and
respect in workplace; and (3) the effect
of NextGen on various workforces. This
teleconference meeting was described as
‘‘solely for discussion with Mr. Joshua
M. Javits, a professional arbitrator and
mediator, who has mediated a number
of air carrier labor-management
disputes.’’ However, at the
subcommittee meeting on September 23,
2010, it was determined additional time
would be needed during the October 1,
2010, meeting to refine the
subcommittee’s topic proposals for
presentation to the full FAAC on
October 20, 2010. Accordingly, in
addition to the scheduled discussion
with Mr. Javits on October 1, the
subcommittee will discuss possible
actionable items for presentation at the
October 20 FAAC meeting in Los

implementing regulations at 46 CFR
Parts 355 and 356 set forth requirements

U.S.C. 50501, (formerly Section 2 of the

prescribed by part 355 or part 356.

U.S. Citizenship to determine if the

the programs offered by the agency or to

Affidavits of U.S. Citizenship are filed
with MARAD by shipowners, trustees,
ship mortgagees, charterers, equity
owners, ship managers, etc.
