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 aids to make the aircraft noise certification information easily accessible to the flight crew and presentable upon request to the appropriate foreign officials for international airline operation of U.S. carriers. The information to be collected upholds the U.S. obligations under the Convention on International Civil Aviation and for which FAA policy comply with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Standards and Recommended Practices to the maximum extent practicable. Thus the FAA has adopted ICAO's Standards and Recommended Practices as U.S. regulations as a means of compliance with Annex 16 and requires noise documentation be carried on board aircraft that leave the United States.

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 aids to make the aircraft noise
certification information easily accessible to the flight crew and
presentable upon request to the appropriate foreign officials for
international airline operation of U.S. carriers. The information to be
collected upholds the U.S. obligations under the Convention on
International Civil Aviation and for which FAA policy comply with
International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Standards and
Recommended Practices to the maximum extent practicable. Thus the FAA
has adopted ICAO's Standards and Recommended Practices as U.S.
regulations as a means of compliance with Annex 16 and requires noise
documentation be carried on board aircraft that leave the United
States.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 7, 2023.

Background: On March 2, 2010, the FAA published the final rule

that requires certain noise information be carried on board the
aircraft. This information must be easily accessible to the flight crew
and presentable upon request to the appropriate foreign National
Aviation Authority (NAA) officials. The collection is mandatory based
on U.S. regulations and international standards.
Respondents: Operators of U.S. registered civil aircraft flying
outside the United States.
