DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Report of
Inspections Required by Airworthiness Directives
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice and request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information
collection. Airworthiness Directives (ADs) are regulations issued to
require correct corrective action to correct unsafe conditions in
aircraft, engines, propellers, and appliances. Reports of inspections
are often needed when emergency corrective action is taken to determine
if the action was adequate to correct the unsafe condition. The
respondents are aircraft owners and operators. Currently, FAA has
blanket Paperwork Reduction Act approval from OMB for all ADs with
information collection requirements. Per OMB's request, this collection
is being converted to a generic information collection request, which
will require FAA to submit individual ADs to OMB for approval prior to
their release.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by February 2, 2015.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Ms. Kathy
DePaepe, Room 126B, Federal Aviation Administration, AES-200, 6500 S.
MacArthur Blvd., Oklahoma City, OK 73169.
Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathy DePaepe at (405) 954-9362, or by
email at: [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 2120-0056.
Title: Report of Inspections Required by Airworthiness Directives.
Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this
collection.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection; conversion to
generic information collection request.
Background: Title 14 CFR part 39, Airworthiness Directives (AD),
authorized by Sec. Sec. 40113(a), 44701, and 44702 of Title 49 United
States Code, prescribes how the FAA issues ADs. The FAA issues ADs when
an unsafe condition is discovered on a specific aircraft type. If the
condition is serious enough and more information is needed to develop
corrective action, specific information may be required from aircraft
owners/operators. If it is necessary for the aircraft manufacturer or
airworthiness authority to evaluate the information, owners/operators
will be instructed to send the information to them.
Respondents: Approximately 1,120 aircraft owners/operators.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 5 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 3,080 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on December 1, 2014.

FAA Assistant Information Collection Clearance Officer, IT Enterprises
