Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review

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.), this notice announces that the Information 
Collection Request (ICR) abstracted below has been forwarded to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for extension of the currently 
approved collection. The ICR describes the nature of the information 
collection and the expected burden. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection 
of information was published

[[Page 70862]]

on April 17, 2003 on page 19066. This information collection activity 
was originally submitted to OMB for review on 11/12/03. The FAA 
withdrew the package and resubmitted it to reflect a new estimate. This 
is a request for renewal of the current collection requirements. The 
burden hours were reduced because the information is collected every 18 
months instead of annually and most covered airports have already 
submitted their initial plans.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before January 20, 2004. A 
comment to OMB is most effective if OMB receives it within 30 days of 
publication.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Judy Street on (202) 267-9895.
