Limit the number of continuous hours on duty;

(b)

Provide off-duty time sufficient for an adequate, continuous sleep opportunity at least once each 24 hour period;

(c)

Mitigate cumulative fatigue associated with work during successive circadian low periods; and

Limit the number of successive days on duty.

Pilot organizations shall submit copies of their fatigue management programs and any subsequent modifications of their programs to the Board.

(3)

Pilot organizations shall submit reports of the number of instances in which their members were out of compliance with each standard adopted in the organizations’ fatigue management programs pursuant to subsections (1)(a) though (d) of this section. The reports shall be submitted within 30 days following the close of each calendar quarter and include all piloting activity during the preceding quarter. The Board may periodically require a pilot organization to explain why the organization’s fatigue standards have been exceeded.

Pilot organizations shall retain dispatching and other records of individual pilot times on and off duty used by pilot organizations for compiling the reports required by subsection (3) of this rule for a period of 60 months. This includes all written and electronic documentation used by the pilot organizations for the purposes set out above. Such records shall be provided to the Board in response to a Board request.
