SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On February 13, 2007, the FAA published the final rule, ``National 
Air Tour Safety Standards,'' in the Federal Register. The rule 
standardized requirements for air tour operations and consolidated air 
tour safety standards in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations 
part 136. In the DATES section of the final rule, we noted that 
affected parties did not need to comply with the information collection 
requirements in certain sections of the rule until the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) approved the FAA's request to collect the 
information.
    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, OMB approved the 
FAA's request for new information collection on April 10, 2007, and 
assigned the information collection OMB Control Number 2120-0717. The 
control number was not available to include when the final rule was 
published, thus necessitating this notice. The FAA request was approved 
by OMB without change and expires on April 30, 2010.
