Section 1. General Procedures
9-1-1. RETRIEVING
INTERNATIONAL NOTAMs
a. Appendix
A, International NOTAM (Q) Codes, contains the NOTAM codes used for
international NOTAMs.
b. International
NOTAM offices that provide NOTAMs to the U.S. NOTAM office are listed in
ICAO DOC 7383 and the FAA International Flight Information Manual.
c. International
NOTAMs transmitted and received by the U.S. NOTAM Office are stored in the
USNS, and while current, may be retrieved by both Aeronautical Fixed
Telecommunication Network subscribers and FAA facilities via request/ reply.
All facilities must use their particular equipment's keyboard equivalent of
the closed parenthesis or the equal symbol as appropriate.
d. The
USNOF issues international NOTAMs concerning the OMEGA and GPS systems as
well as certain special use airspace for ARTCCs; that is, ARTCC and CARF
altitude reservations (ALTRVs) and warning areas. Warning areas and ALTRVs
are filed under the associated ARTCC ICAO location indicator (KZBW, KZHU,
KZJX, KZLA, KZMA, KZNY, KZOA, KZSE, PAZA, PHZH, or TJZS). Information
concerning permanent, longterm general data and selected foreign advisories
are stored under KFDC location indicator. OMEGA and GPS information is
stored under KNMH. These NOTAMs are numbered consecutively by location
beginning with A0001 each year. The NOTAM number and year of issuance are
separated by a forward slash; for example, A0211/00, A0002/00.
