Abstract
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 collection involves practices that permitted certificated air carriers to operate two-engine airplanes over long range routes. The FAA uses this information collection to ensure that aircraft for long range flights are equipped to minimize diversions, to preclude and prevent diversions in remote areas, and to ensure that all personnel are trained to minimize any adverse impacts of a diversion.

Clearance of a Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Extended
Operations (ETOPS) of Multi-Engine Airplanes
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 collection involves practices that permitted
certificated air carriers to operate two-engine airplanes over long
range routes. The FAA uses this information collection to ensure that
aircraft for long range flights are equipped to minimize diversions, to
preclude and prevent diversions in remote areas, and to ensure that all
personnel are trained to minimize any adverse impacts of a diversion.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by June 23, 2023.
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: 2120-0718.
Title: Extended Operations (ETOPS) of Multi-Engine Airplanes.
[[Page 24843]]
Form Numbers: None.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The final rule codified the previous practices that
permitted certificated air carriers to operate two-engine airplanes
over these long-range routes and extended the procedures for extended
operations to all passenger-carrying operations on routes beyond 180
minutes from an alternate airport. This option is voluntary for
operators and manufacturers. The FAA uses this information collection
to ensure that aircraft for long range flights are equipped to minimize
diversions, to preclude and prevent diversions in remote areas, and to
ensure that all personnel are trained to minimize any adverse impacts
of a diversion.
Respondents: Approximately 22 Operators and 4 Manufacturers and 6
Future Operators.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: Burden varies per operator.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 36,214 Hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on April 19, 2023.

Aviation Safety Inspector. AFS-260.
