[Docket No. FAA-2020-0301]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Application
for Certificate of Waiver or Authorization
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 Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information
collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was
published on March 31, 2020. This collection affects persons who have a
need to deviate from certain regulations that govern use of airspace
within the United States. The request also describes the burden
associated with authorizations to make parachute jumps and operate
unmanned aircraft (including moored balloons, kites, unmanned rockets,
and unmanned free balloons).
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 6, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Raymond Plessinger by email at:
[email protected]; phone: (717) 774-8271.
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.
OMB Control Number: 2120-0027.
Title: Application for Certificate of Waiver or Authorization.
[[Page 34486]]
Form Numbers: FAA form 7711-2.
Type of Review: Renewal.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on March 31, 2020 (85 FR 17940). The information
collected by FAA Form 7711-2, Application for Certificate of Waiver or
Authorization, is reviewed and analyzed by FAA to determine the type
and extent of the intended deviation from prescribed regulations. A
certificate of waiver or authorization to deviate is generally issued
to the applicant (individuals and businesses) if the proposed operation
does not create a hazard to persons, property, or other aircraft, and
includes the operation of unmanned aircraft. Applications for
certificates of waiver to the provisions of Parts 91 and 101 are made
by using FAA Form 7711-2. Application for authorization to make
parachute jumps (other than emergency or military operations) under
Part 105, Section 105.15 (airshows and meets) also uses FAA Form 7711-
2. Application for other types of parachute jumping activities are
submitted in various ways; e.g., in writing, in person, by telephone,
etc.
Persons authorized to deviate from provisions of Part 101 are
required to give notice of actual activities. Persons operating in
accordance with the provisions of Part 101 are also required to give
notice of actual activities. In both instances, the notice of
information required is the same. Therefore, the burden associated with
applications for certificates of waiver or authorization and the burden
associated with notices of actual aircraft activities are identified
and included in this request for clearance.
Regarding operation of small unmanned aircraft systems under Part
107, applications for a certificate of waiver were previously covered
by this information collection. However, such waiver requests are now
covered by information collection 2120-0768. Therefore, unlike the 60-
day Federal Register Notice, this 30-day Federal Register Notice does
not include burden hours for waiver applications under Part 107.
Respondents: 21,661 airmen and aircraft operators.
Frequency: On occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 1.25 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 13,761 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on June 1, 2020.

Project Manager, Flight Standards Service, General Aviation and
Commercial Division.
