DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Service
Difficulty Reporting System
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 and revise a previously
approved information collection. The collection involves requirements
for operators and repair stations to report any malfunctions and
defects or service difficulties to the Administrator. The information
collected allows the FAA to evaluate its certification standards,
maintenance programs, and regulatory requirements. It is also the basis
for issuance of Airworthiness Directives designed to prevent unsafe
conditions and accidents.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by May 15, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Ronda
Thompson, Room 441, Federal Aviation Administration, ASP-110, 950
L'Enfant Plaza SW., Washington, DC 20024.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ronda Thompson by email at:
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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.
OMB Control Number: 2120-0663.
Title: Service Difficulty Reporting System.
Form Numbers: FAA Forms 8010-4 & 8070-1.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: This collection affects certificate holders operating
under 14 CFR part 121, 125, 135, and 145 who are required to report
service difficulties and malfunction or defect reports. The data
collected identifies mechanical failures, malfunctions, and defects
that may be a hazard to the operation of an aircraft. The FAA uses this
data to identify trends that may facilitate the early detection of
airworthiness problems. When defects are reported which are likely to
exist on other products of the same or similar design, the FAA may
disseminate safety information to a particular section of the aviation
community.
Respondents: Approximately 60,000 respondents.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 15,000 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on January 18, 2017.
Ronda L. Thompson,
FAA Information Collection Clearance Officer, Performance, Policy, and
Records Management Branch, ASP-110.
