DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

 
Notice of Intent To Request Renewal From the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) of Current Public Collections of Information

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq.) the FAA invites public comment on 4 currently approved public 
information collections which will be submitted to OMB for renewal.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 7, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Comments on any of these collections may be mailed or 
delivered to the FAA at the following address: Ms. Judith Street, Room 
612, Federal Aviation Administration, Standards and Information 
Division, APF-100, 800 Independence Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Judith Street at the above address 
or on (202) 267-9895.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA solicits comments on any of the 
current collections of information in order to evaluate the necessity 
of the collection, the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden, 
the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected, 
and possible ways to minimize the burden of the collection. Following 
are short synopses of the 4 currently approved public information 
collection activities, which will be submitted to OMB for review and 
renewal:
    1. 2120-0009, Pilot Schools--FAR 141. The information is required 
from applicants who wish to be issued pilot school certificates and 
associated ratings. The number of applicants is estimated to be 860. 
Part 141 prescribes the requirements for issuing pilot school 
certificates, provisional pilot school certificates, and associated 
ratings to qualified applicants. The information on FAA Form 8420-8, 
Application for Pilot School certificates, is required from applicants 
who wish to be issued pilot school certificates and associated ratings. 
Pilot schools train private, commercial, flight instructor, and airline 
transport pilots, along with training for associated ratings on various 
types of aircraft. The information from the form is also necessary to 
assure continuing compliance with Part 141, renewal of certificate 
every 24 months, and for any amendments to pilot school certificates. 
The estimated total annual burden is 47,000 hours.
    2. 2120-0027, Application for Certificate of Waiver or 
Authorization.

[[Page 17056]]

The respondents are those persons wishing authorization to deviate from 
certain prescribed regulations. The estimated number of applications is 
25,000 with an annual burden of approximately 13,500 hours. This public 
reporting burden is imposed on persons that have a need to deviate from 
the provisions of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) that govern 
use of airspace with the United States. This request also describes the 
burden associated with authorizations to make parachute jumps.
    3. 2120-0507, Development of Major Repair Data. SFAR-36. This SFAR 
relieves qualifying applicants (aircraft maintenance, commercial 
aviation, aircraft repair stations, air carriers, air taxi and 
commercial operators) of the burden of obtaining FAA approval of data 
developed by them for major repair on a case-by-case basis and provides 
for one-time approvals. The estimated number of respondents is 20. The 
estimated annual burden is 500 hours.
    4. 2120-0574, Aviation Safety Counselor of the Year Award. There is 
an estimated 200 people who will nominate a person to be considered for 
the Aviation Safety Counselor of the Year Award. The estimated total 
annual burden is 200 hours. This form is used to nominate private 
citizens for recognition of their volunteer services to the FAA. The 
agency will use the information on the form to select nine regional 
winners and one national winner. The respondents are private citizens 
involved in aviation.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on April 1, 1999.

Acting Manager, Standards and Information Division, APF-100.
