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 safety data and analysis by part 121 Certificate Holders required by regulation to implement a Safety Management System (SMS). The Certificate Holder will use the data it collects to identify hazards and instances of non-compliance with requirements and standards. The safety policy, outputs of safety risk management and safety assurance processes, and training and communications records will be kept by the Certificate Holder and used in its SMS. The Certificate Holder will also use the data, records, and documentation to show compliance with regulations. However, none of these data, records, or documents will be submitted to FAA.

Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Safety 
Management Systems for Part 121 Certificate Holders

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 safety data and analysis by part 
121 Certificate Holders required by regulation to implement a Safety 
Management System (SMS). The Certificate Holder will use the data it 
collects to identify hazards and instances of non-compliance with 
requirements and standards. The safety policy, outputs of safety risk 
management and safety assurance processes, and training and 
communications records will be kept by the Certificate Holder and used 
in its SMS. The Certificate Holder will also use the data, records, and 
documentation to show compliance with regulations. However, none of 
these data, records, or documents will be submitted to FAA.

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: 2120-0763.
    Title: Safety Management Systems for Part 121 Certificate Holders.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: Public Law required the FAA to initiate rulemaking 
requiring all part 121 air carriers to implement a Safety Management 
System (SMS). On March 9, 2018, all current part 121 Certificate 
Holders met the final compliance date to have a Safety Management 
System acceptable to the Administrator. There are four components to a 
Safety Management System: Safety Policy, Safety Risk Management, Safety 
Assurance, and Safety Promotion. Collection and analysis of safety data 
and concomitant records is an essential part of a properly functioning 
SMS. Safety Policy establishes the foundation for the SMS. Safety Risk 
Management determines and identifies hazards in an aviation

operation. Safety Assurance measures the effectiveness of hazard 
identification and mitigation and prevention of new, unforeseen 
hazards. Safety Promotion requires the Certificate Holder to maintain 
training records and communications documentation used to promote 
safety.
    Respondents: Approximately 70 part 121 Certificate Holders and any 
future applicants for a part 121 certificate.
    Frequency: During the first 6 months of the 3-year effective date 
period, part 121 Certificate Holders were required to submit an SMS 
implementation plan. This was a onetime submission for the existing 
part 121 Certificate Holders and will be a onetime submission for 
future part 121 certificate applicants.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 3,340 Hours (as an average 
of 30 large carriers (50+ aircraft), 31 medium carriers (10-49 
aircraft), and 29 small carriers (9 or fewer aircraft)).
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 107,146 total labor hours for 3 
years, $3,854,888 total cost over 3 years.

    Issued in Fort Worth, TX on May 21, 2018.
