    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information

submissions to determine if an airport sponsor's noise compatibility 
program is eligible for Federal grant funds. If airport operators did 
not voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise compatibility 
programs for FAA review and approval, the airport operator would not be 
eligible for the set aside of discretionary grant funds.

    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 3882.6 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 56,160 hours.
