electrical/electronic facilities, owned and operated by non-Federal 
sponsors;

outages and repairs, for facilities owned and operated by non-Federal 
sponsors; and
     The facilities' periodically verified parameters for the 
life of the facility.
    The information collected is necessary to ensure that operation and 
maintenance of these non-Federally owned facilities is in accordance 
with FAA safety standards.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by November 26, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0014.
    Title: Procedures for Non-Federal Navigation Facilities.
    Form Numbers: FAA Form 6000-10; FAA Form 6000-8; FAA Form; 6030-1.
    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 August 27, 2018 (83 FR 43724). Title 14 CFR part 171 
establishes procedures and requirements for non-Federal sponsors, 
(``non-Federal sponsors'' refers to entities such as state and local 
governments, businesses, and private citizens) to purchase, install, 
operate, and maintain electronic NavAids for use by the flying public, 
in the National Airspace System (NAS). Part 171 describes procedures 
for receiving permission to install a facility and requirements to keep 
it in service. Documenting the initial parameters during commissioning 
is necessary to have a baseline to reference during future inspections. 
Another requirement is recording maintenance tasks, removal from 
service, and any other repairs performed on these facilities in on-site 
logs to have an accurate history on the performance of the facility. In 
addition, at each periodic inspection, recording the facilities' 
current parameters provides performance information for the life of the 
facility. Records must be kept on site and the FAA must receive copies 
of the logs.
    Respondents: Approximately 2,600 non-Federal navigation 
facilities--no more than 2,600 respondents.
    Frequency: Information is collected (submitted to Inspectors) on 
occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 13.72 hours per year.

 Form 6000-10, 1.72 hours per response
 Form 6000-8, 30 minutes per response
 Form 6030-1, 30 minutes per response

    Estimated Total Annual Burden: Approximately 36,000 hours per year.

    Issued in Washington, DC.
