Agency Information Collection Activities: Clearance of Renewed
Approval of Information Collection: Airport Noise Compatibility
Planning
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invites public comments about our
intention to request the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB)
approval to renew an information collection. The collection involves
information on voluntary airport noise compatibility programs. The
information to be collected is necessary because noise compatibility
program measures are eligible for Federal grants in-aid if they are
provided to FAA for review and approval in advance. The respondents are
airport sponsors that voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise
compatibility programs to the FAA for review and approval.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by December 13, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the FAA's request
for OMB's approval to renew this information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain . Find this information collection by selecting ``Currently
under 30-day Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search
function. Comments may also be submitted via electronic mail to
[email] .
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Susan Staehle by electronic mail at:
[email] or by phone at: 202-267-7935.
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: 2120-0517.
Title: Airport Noise Compatibility Planning.
Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this
collection.
Type of Review: Renewal of an Information Collection.
Background: The voluntarily submitted information from the
collection process pursuant to tile 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) part 150, (e.g., airport noise exposure maps and airport noise
compatibility programs, or their revisions) is used by the FAA to
conduct reviews of the submissions to determine if an airport sponsor's
noise compatibility program is eligible for Federal grant funds. If
airport sponsors did not voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and
noise compatibility programs for FAA review and approval, the airport
sponsor would not be eligible for the set aside of discretionary grant
funds. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day review period
soliciting comments on this information collection of information was
published in the Federal Register on August 5, 2024 (89 FR 63466) and
no public comments were received.
Respondents: Approximately 15 airport sponsors.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 2,080 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 31,200 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, November 6, 2024.
