[Docket No. 2022-0580]


Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of a Renewed Approval of Information Collection: QSA Customer 
Feedback Report

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA 
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information 
collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period 
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was 
published on May 13, 2022. The collection involves the voluntary 
submission of responses to survey questions. The information is 
collected from holders of FAA production approvals and selected 
suppliers and provides them an opportunity to offer their input on how 
well the agency is performing the administration and conduct of the 
Aircraft Certification Systems Quality System Audit (QSA). The 
information to be collected will be used to promote continuous 
improvement initiatives and industry dialog in the FAA oversight 
process.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by December 1, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joedy Collado, AIR-634 by email at: 
[email protected]; phone: 202-267-6440.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the 
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d) 
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of 
the collected information.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0605.
    Title: Quality System Audit Feedback Report.
    Form Numbers: FAA Form 8100-7.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on May 13, 2022 (87 FR 29426). The feedback information 
collection is voluntary and is collected by way of a self-addressed 
stamped envelope. It is used by local field offices, manufacturing 
inspection offices and the surveillance and oversight policy section of 
AIR-600 to improve the administration and conduct of the QSA at the 
local and national levels. Improvements to FAA Order 8120.23, 
Certificate Management of Production Approval Holders, have been and 
will continue to be included as policy evolves as a direct benefit of 
the on-going collection of that feedback information. It will also be 
used for reporting as a Customer Service Standard in fulfillment of 
Executive Order 12862, Setting Customer Service Standards, dated 
September 11, 1993.
    Respondents: There are approximately 50 holders of FAA production 
approvals responding annually. This metric was updated from the 60 day 
FRN as a wider sampling was taken to more accurately validate and 
maintain consistency with supporting statement responses. Audit 
frequencies change from year to year as due dates range from 12 to 48 
months. Accordingly, the sampling period was adjusted to capture the 
most recent three year period that full data was readily available.
    Frequency: Feedback information is collected about thirty days 
after conclusion of the oversight activity. The feedback provided is 
voluntarily submitted by the audited facility on occasion which is 
predicated on their audit due date frequency.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 30 Minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 25 Hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on October 25, 2022.
