DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration


Notice of Intent To Request Renewal From the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) of Current Public Collections of Information

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, (44 
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the FAA invites public comment on one currently 
approved public information collection which will be submitted to OMB 
for renewal.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 3, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Comments on this collection may be mailed or delivered to 
the FAA at the following address: Ms. Judy Street, Room 612, Federal 
Aviation Administration, Corporate Information Division, APF-100, 800 
Independence Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms Judy Street at the above address or on (202) 267-9895.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA solicits comments on this current 
collection of information in order to evaluate the necessity of the 
collection, the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden, the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected, and 
possible ways to minimize the burden of the collection. Following is a 
short synopses of the currently approved public information collection 
activity, which will be submitted to OMB for review and renewal:

2120-0593, Commuter Operations and General Certification and 
Operations Requirements

    The regulation requires that certain commuter operators conduct 
their operations under part 121 instead of part 135. Affected operators 
include those conducting scheduled, passenger-carrying operations with 
airplanes with 10-30 seats. The reporting requirements are similar but 
different between parts 121 and 135. This submission reflects only the 
additional burden associated with part 135 carriers transitioning to 
part 121 standards.
    There will be a change to the collection of information. The 
transition portion of this rule is complete. However, Part 119 continue 
to cover new carriers and some ongoing requirements. The burden 
associated with the transition portion will be removed, and only burden 
associated with new carriers and ongoing requirements will be reflected 
in the updated submission. The new total burden is being estimated at 
this time and is not available for this notice. It should be less than 
the original submission in 1995 of 36,048 hours which included the 
transition of some 135 carriers to part 121 rules.

    Issued in Washington, DC., on August 31, 1998.
Steve Hopkins,
Manager, Corporation Information Division, APF-100.
