period
[[Page 65844]]
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was
published on July 15, 2022 (87 FR 42538).
Air carrier maintenance has evolved from mostly an ``in-house''
operation to an extended network of maintenance providers that fulfill
contracts with air carriers to perform their aircraft maintenance. Any
person performing maintenance for an air carrier must follow the air
carrier's maintenance manual.
The FAA has found that, although an air carrier is required to list
its maintenance providers and a general description of the work to be
done in its maintenance manual, these lists are not always kept up to
date, are not always complete, and are not always in a format that is
readily useful for FAA oversight and analysis purposes. Without
accurate and complete information on the work being performed for air
carriers, the FAA cannot adequately target its inspection resources for
surveillance and make accurate risk assessments.
This collection of information supports regulatory requirements
necessary under 14 CFR part 121 and part 135 to ensure safety of flight
by requiring air carriers to provide a list that includes the name and
physical (street) address, or addresses, where the work is carried out
for each maintenance provider that performs work for the certificate
holder, and a description of the type of maintenance, preventive
maintenance, or alteration that is to be performed at each location.
The list must be updated with any changes, including additions or
deletions, and the updated list provided to the FAA in a format
acceptable to the FAA by the last day of each calendar month.
This collection also supports the FAA's strategic goal to provide
to the next level of safety, by achieving the lowest possible accident
rate and always improving safety, so all users of our aviation system
can arrive safely at their destinations.
Respondents: 303 air carriers (64 Part 121 air carriers and 239
part 135 air carriers).
Frequency: Monthly.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: Eight hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 2,424 hours.
Issued in Hillsboro, OR on October 27, 2022.
