Notice of Information Collection

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

ACTION: Notice of information collection--CORRECTION.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Ref: This notice is correcting NASA Federal Register Notice [18-
015] dated 3/5/2018; Federal Register/Vol. 83 No. 9339.
SUMMARY: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, as part of 
its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, 
invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this 
opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information 
collections.

DATES: All comments should be submitted within 60 calendar days from 
the date of this publication.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to Lori Parker, National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration, 300 E Street, SW, Washington, DC 
20546-0001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information or 
copies of the information collection instrument(s) and instructions 
should be directed to Lori Parker, NASA Clearance Officer, NASA 
Headquarters, 300 E Street SW, JF0000, Washington, DC 20546, (202) 358-
1351.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    Supersonic flight over land is currently restricted in the U.S. and 
many countries because sonic boom noise disturbs people on the ground 
and can potentially damage private property. NASA is researching the 
public acceptability of quiet commercial supersonic flight. As 
sufficient research is assembled, there is potential for a change in 
federal and international regulations.
    The 2018 Quiet Supersonic Flight Community Response Test will 
correlate human annoyance response with low level supersonic exposure 
in a community setting. The supersonic exposure will be generated with 
an F-18 research aircraft performing a specialized maneuver. This 
effort is designed to evaluate remote aircraft basing and operations, 
community engagement, sonic boom measurements, and community annoyance 
surveys. The effort will improve research methods for future community-
scale response testing using a purpose-built, low boom flight 
demonstration aircraft (LBFD).

[[Page 11251]]

    NASA supported a prior risk reduction field test to evaluate data 
collection methods for low boom community response at Edwards Air Force 
Base (EAFB) in November 2011. The annoyance response findings from the 
study are not readily generalizable to a larger population, as the 
residents at EAFB are accustomed to hearing full level sonic booms on a 
routine basis.

II. Methods of Collection

    Web-Based/Electronic.

III. Data

    Title: 2018 Quiet Supersonic Flight Community Response Test.
    OMB Number: 2700-xxxx.
    Type of review: New Clearance.

    Annual Responses: 112 responses (maximum) per respondent.
    Frequency of Responses: 10 responses (maximum) per day.
    Average minutes per Response: Typical response time is 2 minutes.
    Burden Hours: Not to exceed 2,000 hours.

IV. Request for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
NASA, including whether the information collected has practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA's estimate of the burden hours of the 
proposed collection of information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of 
information technology.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and included in the request for OMB approval of this information 
collection. They will also become a matter of public record.

Lori Parker,
NASA PRA Clearance Officer.
