Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Revised Approval of Information Collection: Aviation 
Maintenance Technician School

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 revise an information 
collection. The respondents to this information collection are 
certificate holders or applicants. The information collected determines 
compliance with applicant eligibility and ensures that certificated 
AMTSs meet the minimum requirements for procedures and curriculum set 
forth by the FAA. This revised filing accounts for the recent 
implementation of operation specifications, corrects the current 
enrollment figure cited in 2016, and adds sections that were not 
previously included in the burden assessment.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by June 4, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Barbara 
Hall, Federal Aviation Administration, ASP-110, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, 
Fort Worth, TX 76177.
    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 by email at: 
Barbara.L.Hall@faa.gov; phone: 940-594-5913

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0040.
    Title: Aviation Maintenance Technician Schools.
    Form Numbers: FAA Form 8310-6 Aviation Maintenance Technician 
School Certificate and Ratings Application.
    Type of Review: This is a revision and correction of the 
information collection approved on September 30, 2016, supporting 
statement for part 147.
    Background: The FAA program office for part 147, the General 
Aviation Branch of Flight Standards, Aircraft Maintenance Division 
recognizes there were some discrepancies in the 2016 filing. This 
revised information collection corrects the September 30, 2016, 
supporting statement approved for part 147. The information collection 
burden hours and costs will be noticeably higher than posted in the 
2016 supporting statement for three primary reasons:
     First, due to program changes implemented by FAA Notice N 
8900.278, dated November 21, 2014, operations specifications (OpSpecs) 
were introduced to Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 
part 147 AMTSs. OpSpecs must be issued to institutions with part 147 
certificates by July 21, 2015. This correction includes the burden 
added by OpSpecs not addressed in the 2016 information collection.
     Second, the current enrollment figures cited in 2016 were 
12,500 students but are now 17,800 students.
     Third, some sections of part 147 were not represented as 
collecting information and to correct the record, the FAA is including 
them in this revised report.
    The respondents to this information collection are part 147 
certificate holders or applicants. Currently, there are 177 FAA 
certificated AMTSs. The information collected determines compliance 
with applicant eligibility and ensures that certificated AMTSs meet the 
minimum requirements of part 147. The information collected is focused 
on an AMTS' initial curriculum, instructor's qualifications, 
maintenance of curriculum, facilities, instructional equipment, and 
change of location, if applicable. Recordkeeping requirements address 
student attendance, tests, grades, any instruction credited under 
section 147.31(c), and authenticated transcripts of student's grades 
when credit was given based on training from a previous school. An AMTS 
must also keep a current progress chart for each student showing 
practical projects completed or to be completed in each subject.
    Respondents: Part 147 AMTS Certificate applicants and Certificate 
holders.
    Frequency: Initial certification, on occasion if changes made by 
AMTS, and ongoing recordkeeping.
