OMB Control Number: 2120-0005.
Title: General Operating and Flight Rules FAR 91 and FAR 107.
Form Numbers: N/A.
Type of Review: Renewal.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on February 14, 2022. 87 FR 8335 (Feb. 14, 2022). In
2004, the FAA published a final rule requiring operators of
experimental aircraft to apply for a LODA to conduct operations for
compensation or hire under 14 CFR 91.319. See 69 FR 44771 (July 27,
2004). When publishing the 2004 final rule, the FAA inadvertently
omitted its submission to the OMB detailing the information collection
burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). See 69 FR at 44858
(explaining estimated PRA burden and OMB compliance requirements). As a
result of this omission, the existing OMB collection does not account
for the PRA burden of LODAs issued to operators under Sec. 91.319.
In the 2004 final rule, the FAA also implied that, beginning
January 31, 2010, all experimental light sport aircraft (ELSA)
operators would similarly need to apply for a LODA to conduct
operations for compensation or hire. 69 FR at 44853 (explaining LODA
requirements for ELSA operators). This additional LODA implication--
published in the 2004 final rule with an effective date in 2010--was
also inadvertently not accounted for in the OMB's information
collection. As a
[[Page 53539]]
result of these inadvertent omissions to OMB, the FAA submits this
Notice to ensure compliance with the PRA. Importantly, the FAA has
already requested and received public comment on the anticipated PRA
burden for obtaining a LODA for experimental aircraft operators. See 69
FR at 44858 (adjudicating public comments regarding PRA burden). Thus,
the FAA notes that it considered comments from interested members of
the public when finalizing the LODA requirements under Sec. 91.319. In
other words, the FAA submits this Notice to ensure technical compliance
with the OMB's PRA requirements, as a matter of diligence in meeting
these requirements and ensuring accuracy in recordkeeping procedures.
Respondents: There are approximately 177 active LODA holders for
operations under 14 CFR 91.319, and the FAA anticipates approximately
20 new submissions per year.
Frequency: As needed.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 19 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 380 hours per year.
Issued in Washington, DC, on August 26, 2022.

Project Manager, Flight Standards Service, General Aviation and
Commercial Division.
