    Abstract: Clean Air Act section 231 (42 U.S.C. 7571) authorizes EPA 
to adopt emission standards for aircraft engines. The Clean Air Act 
additionally provides broad authority for EPA to collect information 
related to the regulations we adopt for aircraft and other emission 
sources (42 U.S.C. 7414(a)(1)). EPA is accordingly adopted emission 
standards for aircraft gas turbine engines and added a requirement for 
manufacturers to submit information related to compliance with the 
emission standards. EPA will use the data to verify compliance with 
emission standards and to better understand the characteristics of 
aircraft engines that are subject to emission standards.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory.
    Estimated number of respondents: 10 (total).
    Frequency of response: Annual.
    Total estimated burden: 60 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 
CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: No annualized capital or operation & 
maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is no change in the total estimated 
respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB.
