Sec.  87.395   Plan for the Security Control of Air Traffic and Air Navigation Aids
(Short Title: SCATANA).

   (a) The Plan for the Security Control of Air Traffic and Air Navigation Aids
   (SCATANA) is promulgated in furtherance of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958,
   as amended, the Communications Act and Executive Order 11490, as amended.
   SCATANA defines the responsibilities of the Commission for the security
   control of non-Federal air navigation aids.

   (b) Under the responsibilities defined in SCATANA, an FCC Support Plan for
   the Security Control of Non-Federal Air Navigation Aids has been developed
   by  the  Commission.  The  FCC  Support Plan defines responsibilities,
   procedures, and instructions in consonance with SCATANA which will effect
   control of non-Federal air navigation aids when SCATANA is implemented. It
   permits the use of such navigation aids by aircraft of military and civil
   agencies when SCATANA is implemented. The FCC Support Plan highlights those
   parts of SCATANA which deal specifically with non-Federal air navigation
   aids. SCATANA and the FCC Support Plan apply to radionavigation stations
   authorized by the Commission in the following manner:

   (1)  All  licensees are subject to restrictions imposed by appropriate
   military authorities pursuant to SCATANA and the FCC Support Plan when an
   Air  Defense Emergency or Defense Emergency exists or is imminent. The
   restrictions will be imposed through FAA Air Route Traffic Control Centers
   (ARTCCs).

   (2) All licensees of aeronautical radionavigation (VOR/DME, ILS, MLS, LF and
   MF non-directional beacons) stations will comply with SCATANA implementation
   instructions from FAA ARTCCs as follows:

   (i) Shut down the above navigation aids as directed. These instructions will
   permit time to land or disperse airborne aircraft, and will permit extension
   of time when the air traffic situation dictates.

   (ii) Shut down as soon as possible stations which require more than five
   minutes control time, unless directed otherwise or unless such stations are
   essential for the handling of existing air traffic.

   (iii) Operate aeronautical radionavigation stations to ensure that required
   stations, as indicated in flight plans, will be available for authorized
   aircraft flights.

   (3) Licensees of aeronautical radionavigation stations will be notified of
   the reduction or removal of SCATANA restrictions by FAA ARTCCs when notice
   of the termination is issued.

   (4) Licensees of aeronautical radionavigation stations may voluntarily
   participate in SCATANA tests as requested by an ARTCC. SCATANA testing must
   not interrupt the normal service of non-Federal air navigation aids.
