Title: Anti-Drug Program for Personnel Engaged in Specified
Aviation Activities.

Activities (14 CFR Part 121, appendices I and J), 49 U.S.C. 31306
(Alcohol and controlled substances testing), and the Omnibus
Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 (the Act). The FAA uses
information collected for determining program compliance or non-
compliance of regulated aviation employers, oversight planning,
determining who must provide annual MIS testing information, and
communicating with entities subject to the program regulations. In
addition, the information is used to ensure that appropriate action is
taken in regard to crew members and other safety-sensitive employees
who have tested positive for drugs or alcohol, or have refused to
submit to testing.

this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information
collection.
