Federal Aviation Administration The agency of the federal government responsible for regulating and assisting aviation in the United States. The FAA disseminates weather information intended for aircraft, but which can be of some value to mariners. For a description of low frequency (LF) FAA broadcasts that can be received on marine RDF receivers, see the LF page of the Source book. For information about FAA weather reports via land-line telephone, see the Telephone-marine page of the Source book.
