[Docket No. FAA-2020-0237]
Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Commercial
Aviation Safety Team Safety Enhancement Questionnaires
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. The collection involves the collection of data for the
Commercial Aviation Safety Team (CAST) to demonstrate voluntary
participation with safety enhancements (SE). The CAST SEs are
recommended best practices and implementation of the SEs is voluntary.
It is vital for CAST to know the level of implantation of the SEs in
order to determine the level of risk reduction in commercial aviation.
To support this assessment CAST decided to gather information regarding
the extent to which these SEs have been implemented by air carriers so
it can determine if further action is required.
To facilitate this data collection for CAST, the FAA has developed
an information collection (questionnaire) for key SEs that air carriers
and operators are asked to complete using the FAA's existing web-based
system, Web-based Operations Safety System (WebOPSS). Completion of the
questionnaires is voluntary, and is requested of all current, now 61,
part 121 certificate holders that the FAA oversees.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by May 5, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Please send written comments:

ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include

collection.
