DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration


Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Safe 
Disposition of Life-Limited Aircraft Parts

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 a previously approved 
information collection. This collection involves response to the 
Wendall H. Ford Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century which 
requires that all persons who remove any life-limited aircraft part 
have a method to prevent the installation of that part after it has 
reached its life limit.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by September 25, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on 
the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be 
addressed to the attention of the Desk Officer, Department of 
Transportation/FAA, and sent via electronic mail to 
[email protected], or faxed to (202) 395-6974, or mailed to 
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management 
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW., 
Washington, DC 20503.
    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: Barbara Hall at [email protected] 
or (817) 222-5448.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0665.
    Title: Safe Disposition of Life-Limited Aircraft Parts.
    Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this 
collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on June 19, 2017 (82 FR 27945). There were no comments. 
14 CFR part 43 requires a record keeping system to be maintained that 
will aid aircraft operators in determining the status of the life-
limited parts from inadvertently being installed that have reached 
their life limit. This action reduces the risk of life-limited parts 
being used beyond their life limits. This action also requires that 
manufacturers of life-limited parts provide marking instructions, when 
requested.
    Respondents: Approximately 8,000 air carriers, repair stations, and 
mechanics.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 104,000 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on August 21, 2017.

FAA Information Collection Clearance Officer Performance, Policy &
