Steve Cohen: “I would just reiterate the fact that this will add additional burdens…”

On the recordJuly 19, 2023

I would just reiterate the fact that this will add additional burdens to the FAA. They would have to independently verify every single NOTAM. The FAA is already overburdened with work, and they need more and more folks there to make our civil aeronautics system work properly. The amendment would conflict with recommendations just passed a few months ago by the NOTAM working group for improvement of that act, and that was passed just 2 months ago. So I have to cite those same reasons for opposing the amendment. Mr. Chair, I continue to oppose the amendment, and I reserve the balance of my time.
