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 information on voluntary airport noise compatibility programs. The respondents are airport operators that voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise compatibility programs to the FAA for review and approval. The information to be collected is necessary because noise compatibility program measures are eligible for Federal grants-in-aid if they are provided to FAA for review in approval in advance.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration


Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Airport Noise 
Compatibility Planning

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 information on voluntary airport 
noise compatibility programs. The respondents are airport operators 
that voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise compatibility 
programs to the FAA for review and approval. The information to be 
collected is necessary because noise compatibility program measures are 
eligible for Federal grants-in-aid if they are provided to FAA for 
review in approval in advance.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 24, 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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Barbara Hall by email at: 
[email protected]; phone: 940-594-5913.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    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.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0517.
    Title: Airport Nosie Compatibility Planning.
    Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this 
collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The voluntarily submitted information from the current 
CFR part 150 collection, e.g., airport noise exposure maps and airport 
noise compatibility programs, or their revisions, is used by the FAA to 
conduct reviews of the 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.
    Respondents: Approximately 15 airport operators.
    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 3,950 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 59,250 hours.
