SUMMARY: This notice announces the Office of Management and Budget's

published on February 28, 2008.

DATES: The FAA received OMB approval for the information collection 
requirements in 14 CFR 61.19(h), 14 CFR 61.19(e), 14 CFR 63.15(d) and 
14 CFR 65.15(d) on October 9, 2008. The rule became effective on March

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 28, 2008, the FAA published the 
final rule, ``Drug Enforcement Assistance'' (73 FR 10662). Two years 
after this rule becomes effective, paper pilot certificates may no 
longer be used to exercise piloting privileges. Five years after this 
rule becomes effective, certain other paper airmen certificates, such 
as those of flight engineers and mechanics, may no longer be used to 
exercise the privileges authorized by those certificates. To exercise 
the privileges after those respective dates, the airmen must hold 
upgraded, counterfeit-resistant plastic certificates. Student pilot 
certificates, temporary certificates, and authorizations are not 
affected. The rule contains information collection requirements that 
had not yet been approved by the Office of Management and Budget at the 
time of publication. In the DATES section of the

[[Page 22820]]

rule, the FAA noted that affected parties did not need to comply with 
the information collection requirements until OMB approved the FAA's 
request to collect the information.
    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, OMB approved that 
request on October 9, 2008, and assigned the information collection OMB 
Control Number 2120-0735. The FAA request was approved by OMB without 
change and expires on October 31, 2011. This notice is being published 
to inform affected parties of the approval of the information 
collection requirements of 14 CFR 61.19(h), 14 CFR 61.19(e), 14 CFR 
63.15(d) and 14 CFR 65.15(d).

    Issued in Washington, DC, on May 11, 2009.

Director, Office of Rulemaking.
