SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA

Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information 
collection. The collection involves obtaining information from air 
carriers to establish legally binding aviation war risk insurance 
policies with the FAA. The information to be collected is necessary to 
determine whether applicants are eligible for insurance and the amount 
of coverage necessary; populate insurance policies with business 
information; and meet conditions of coverage required by each insurance 
policy.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by February 28, 2025.

ADDRESSES: Please send written comments:

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. The agency will summarize and/or include 
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information 
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0514.
    Title: Aviation Insurance.
    Form Numbers: Not applicable.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The FAA Aviation Insurance Program derives its 
authority from Title 49, United States Code, chapter 443 to issue 
aviation war risk insurance to air carriers with and without premium. 
FAA coverage is issued in support of mission objectives and operations 
when insurance is not available commercially on reasonable terms and 
conditions. Air carriers never insured must submit an application 
before the FAA can provide coverage. Applicants provide business 
information, aircraft to be covered by the policy, and information 
about commercial insurance policies. As a condition of FAA coverage, 
air carriers must submit any changes to the initial application 
information as necessary. Air carriers must also provide a copy of 
their current commercial insurance policy on an ongoing basis, as well 
as information for any new aircraft the air carrier would like to add 
to the FAA policy. This information is provided electronically to the 
FAA through a web-based system. The information is used to form the 
insurance policy between the FAA and the air carrier.
    Respondents: Air carriers applying for aviation insurance and 
updating required information.
    Frequency: Initial one-time application and updates to application 
information 1-2 times per year.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: Initial application--4 
hours; commercial policy submission--10 minutes; business information 
update--5 minutes; and aircraft schedule update--2 minutes per 
aircraft.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 10 minutes to 4 hours per 
respondent. Cumulative total 158 hours (maximum).

    Issued in Boonsboro, MD, on December 20, 2024.
