#  Prohibition Against Certain Flights in the Damascus (OSTT) Flight Information Region (FIR); Correction

**AGENCY:**

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

**ACTION:**

Final rule; correction.

**SUMMARY:**

The FAA is correcting a final rule published on August 29, 2017. In that final rule, which became effective on the date of publication, the FAA reissued a prohibition of certain flight operations in the Damascus (OSTT) Flight Information Region (FIR) by all U.S. air carriers; U.S. commercial operators; persons exercising the privileges of an airman certificate issued by the FAA, except such persons operating a U.S.-registered aircraft for a foreign air carrier; and operators of U.S.-registered civil aircraft, except where the operator is a foreign air carrier. The FAA inadvertently failed to include an Amendment Number for that final rule. This document corrects that error.

**DATES:**

This final rule is effective on September 11, 2017.
