Allows Blocking Of Aircraft Registration Information From Public Dissemination
The FAA has published a final notice for a policy that will set parameters for how operators can block access to Aircraft Situation Display to Industry (ASDI) and National Airspace System Status Information (NASSI) Data ... also known as the BARR program.
Under the policy, the FAA will honor each written request of an aircraft owner and operator, submitted in accordance with the rules, to block or unblock their aircraft's appearance in the FAA's public ASDI data feed. Aircraft owners and operators may submit their request on their own behalf, or they may do so through a legally authorized agent, including an attorney or an aircraft management company with a fiduciary duty to carry out the owner's or operator's express wishes with respect to the aircraft.
Requests related to an aircraft's ASDI blocking or unblocking must include the name of the requestor; the registration number(s) of the aircraft to be blocked or unblocked; a certification that the requestor is the owner or operator of the specified aircraft or is a legally authorized representative of the aircraft owner or operator; a telephone number or electronic mail address to which the FAA can direct any questions about the request; and for a request to block one or more aircraft, a statement indicating the requestor's desired level of ASDI blocking—either at the FAA source or at the ASDI subscriber level.
The FAA said that any aircraft that is currently on the ASDI block list, either by virtue of a certified security concern submitted after June 3, 2011, or a request submitted under the FAA's interim ASDI block policy, will remain indefinitely on the ASDI block list when the policies in this document take effect. It is not necessary for the owners or operators of these aircraft to resubmit their requests, unless they wish to change the blocking status of their aircraft or amend the level at which their aircraft is blocked.
