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 renewal information collection.
The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting
comments on the following collection of information was published on
February 18, 2022. The collection involves obtaining basic information
from new aviation insurance applicants about eligible aviation
insurance applicants needed to establish a legally binding, non-premium
insurance policy with the FAA, as requested by another Federal agency,
such as the applicants name and address, and the aircraft to be covered
by the policy. The information collected will be used to determine
whether applicants are eligible for Chapter 443 insurance and the
amount of coverage necessary; populate non-premium insurance policies
with the legal name and address; and meet conditions of coverage
required by each insurance policy.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by April 15, 2022.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As a condition of coverage, air carriers
will be required to submit any changes to the basic information
initially submitted on the application, as necessary. Air carrier's
will also be responsible for providing a copy of their current
commercial insurance policy on an ongoing basis, and aircraft
registration and serial numbers for any new aircraft the air carrier
would like to add to the policy. This information will form part of a
legally binding agreement (i.e., insurance policy) between the FAA and
air carrier. Failure to provide this updated information could result
in lack or denial of coverage.
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: 2120-0514.
Title: Aviation Insurance.
Form Numbers: 2120-0514.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period
[[Page 24221]]
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was
published on February 18, 2022 (87 FR 9413). Title 49 U.S.C. 44305
authorizes the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration,
acting pursuant to a delegation of authority from the Secretary of
Transportation, to provide aviation insurance at the request of another
Federal agency, without premium, provided that the head of the Federal
agency agrees to indemnify the FAA from loss.
The FAA Non-Premium Aviation War Risk Insurance Program offers war
risk coverage, without premium, to air carriers at the request of DoD
and other Federal agencies. DoD and other Federal agencies rely on the
FAA to provide aviation war risk insurance to contracted air carriers
supporting mission objectives and operations that is not available
commercially on reasonable terms and conditions. Air carriers never
insured under the FAA Non-Premium War Risk Insurance Program must
submit an application before the FAA can provide coverage.
Respondents: The FAA currently insure 31 U.S. air carriers through
its Non-Premium Aviation Insurance Program at the request of other
Federal agencies. We estimate the addition of one new air carrier to
the program each year. In addition, air carriers insured will be
required to provide and update information on an ongoing basis as a
condition of insurance coverage and to remain eligible for insurance
policy renewals.
Frequency: The initial application for insurance is required only
from air carriers that have not previously received aviation insurance
from the FAA. We estimate one new air carrier will need to submit an
application annually; 6 insured air carriers will need to update basic
information submitted on their initial application, such as business
name and/or address, annually; 31 insured air carriers will be required
to provide one commercial insurance policy to the FAA annually by
uploading an electronic image into the FAA's Aviation Insurance Data
Management System (AIDMS) annually; and 31 insured air carriers will
need to update their Schedule of Aircraft with aircraft registration
data adding and removing a total of 550 aircraft to or from AIDMS,
annually.
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: 28 Hours.
Issued in Boonsboro, MD, on April 19, 2022.
