Explanation of Changes
Basic
Direct questions through appropriate facility/service center office
staff
to the office of primary responsibility (OPR)
|
a.
2-3-1. GENERAL
2-3-2. APPLICATION
2-3-3. REQUIREMENTS
2-3-5. TRACKING
The new requirements better align employee primary
job functions with the numbers of currency positions
and enhance time per position requirements. A draft
new policy and tool to assist in monitoring
compliance were circulated to the field to solicit
feedback. Compliance verification requires increased
facility administration efforts, depending on facility
type, level, and prior local policy. Facility managers
are also tasked to establish quality control measures
to track and report compliance with the new currency
requirements. Lastly, a new report/tool was
developed to assist facility managers in this effort.
b. 635. MTR (IR) AND CHANGES TO
PUBLISHED MOA ACTIVITY SCHEDULES
This change removes obsolete references and
procedures from FAA JO 7210.3, Paragraph 635,

MOA published activity schedules. References to

are removed and replaced with a reference to
FAA JO 7930.2, Notices to Airmen (NOTAM),
Paragraph 612.
c. 6-9-6. EQUIPMENT SUFFIX AND
DISPLAY MANAGEMENT
