DHS/TSA RIN: 1652-AA49 Publication ID: 2012 
Title: Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport: Enhanced Security Procedures for Certain Operations 
Abstract: The Interim Final Rule (IFR), published by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) on July 19, 2005, creates a new part 1562, subpart B, for General Aviation (GA), in title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). TSA plans to publish a final rule to respond to the public comments and close out this rulemaking. The IFR restores access to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) for certain aircraft operations, while maintaining the security of critical Federal Government and other assets in the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Area. From September 11, 2001, until the IFR became effective on August 18, 2005, general aviation aircraft operations had been prohibited at DCA. This rule applies to all passenger aircraft operations into or out of DCA, except foreign air carrier operations functioning under 49 CFR part 1546.101(a) or (b) and U.S. air carrier operations operating under a full security program required by 49 CFR part 1544. The rule establishes security procedures for GA aircraft operators and gateway airport operators, and security requirements relating to crewmembers, passengers, and armed security officers onboard aircraft operating to or from DCA.
