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. The FAA collects information from applicants 
for experimental permits in order to determine whether they satisfy the 
requirements for obtaining an experimental permit.

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: 2120-0722.
    Title: Experimental Permits for Reusable Suborbital Rockets.
    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 27949). There were no comments. 
14 CFR part 437 established requirements for the FAA's authority to 
issue experimental permits for reusable suborbital rockets to authorize 
launches for the purpose of research and development, crew training and 
showing compliance with the regulations. The information collected 
includes data required for performing a safety review, which includes a 
technical assessment to determine if the applicant can launch a 
reusable suborbital rocket without jeopardizing public health and 
safety and the safety of property. This information collection 
requirement is intended for incorporating acquired data into the 
experimental permit, which then becomes binding on the launch or 
reentry operator. The applicant is required to submit information that 
enables FAA to determine, before issuing a permit, if issuance of the 
experimental permit would jeopardize the foreign policy or national 
security interests of the U.S.
    Respondents: Approximately 10 applicants for experimental permits.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 18.6 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 2,567 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC on August 21, 2017.
