AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION:

Notice and request for comments.

SUMMARY:

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information collection. The collection allows users of both federally obligated and non-obligated airports to activate and deactivate landing areas, change traffic patterns, change use types, and realign landing areas. The information to be collected will be used to conduct airport airspace analyses to understand the impact of proposed actions on existing and planned operating procedures, determine potential hazardous effects and objections, and identify any mitigating measures needed to enhance safe air navigation.

DATES:

Written comments should be submitted by November 17, 2025.

The FAA uses the information collected to determine the effect the proposed action will have on existing airports and on the safe and efficient use of airspace by aircraft, the effects on the existing structure of airspace or contemplated traffic patterns of neighboring airports, the effects on the projected programs of the FAA, and the effects that existing or proposed manmade objects (on file with the FAA) and natural objects within the affected ( printed page 45099) area will have on the airport proposal. The FAA collects this information via an online reporting tool available on the FAA website or via FAA Form 7480-1.
