Purpose.

This change incorporates instructions for documenting loss of control attributed to wake turbulence from another aircraft or reports of injuries to crews or passengers attributed to turbulence other than wake. Until oceanic mandatory occurrence reports (MORs) are enabled in the Comprehensive Electronic Data Analysis and Reporting (CEDAR) tool, this change adds a placeholder (Appendix A, paragraph A-8) for oceanic MORs with instructions to continue reporting oceanic occurrences as currently reported while Oakland, Anchorage, and New York ARTCCs must mark 'Oceanic' for occurrences that happen in oceanic airspace. The Appendix A changes also provide procedures for reporting hazards related to unmanned aerial system (UAS) operations, and incorporates administrative edits. Otherwise unchanged paragraphs are also re-sequenced to accommodate the new reporting instructions.
