DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

 
Office of the Secretary, Washington, DC; Secretarial 
Determination

SUMMARY: The Secretary of Transportation has now determined that Port-
au-Prince International Airport, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, maintains and 
carries out effective security measures.

Notice

    By Order 98-1-24, issued January 23, 1998, the Secretary of 
Transportation made public his determination that Port-au-Prince 
International Airport did not maintain and carry out effective security 
measures. I now find that Port-au-Prince International Airport 
maintains and carries out effective security measures. My determination 
is based on a recent Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) assessment 
which reveals that security measures used at the airport now meet or 
exceed the Standards established by the International Civil Aviation 
Organization. Accordingly, I am removing the public notification 
requirements imposed by Order 98-1-24.

    I have directed that a copy of this notice be published in the 
Federal Register and that the news media be notified of my 
determination. As a result of this determination, the FAA will direct 
that signs posted in the U.S. airports relating to the 1998 
determination be removed.

Dated: February 11, 2000.
Rodney E. Slater,
Secretary of Transportation.
