SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Comments Invited
The FAA invites interested persons to participate in this
rulemaking by submitting written comments, data, or views relating to
the Privacy Impact Assessment associated with this rulemaking. The most
helpful comments reference a specific portion of the proposal, explain
the reason for any recommended change, and include supporting data. To
ensure the docket does not contain duplicate comments, commenters
should submit only one time if comments are filed electronically or
commenters should send only one copy of written comments if comments
are filed in writing.
The FAA will file in the docket all comments it receives, as well
as a report summarizing each substantive public contact with FAA
personnel concerning this proposed rulemaking. Before acting on this
proposal, the FAA will consider all comments it receives on or before
the closing date for comments. The FAA will consider comments filed
after the comment period has closed if it is possible to do so without
incurring expense or delay. The FAA may change this proposal in light
of the comments it receives.
B. Confidential Business Information
Confidential Business Information (CBI) is commercial or financial
information that is both customarily and actually treated as private by
its owner. Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552),
CBI is exempt from public disclosure. If your comments responsive to
this NPRM contain commercial or financial information that is
customarily treated as private, that you actually treat as private, and
that is relevant or responsive to this NPRM, it is important that you
clearly designate the submitted comments as CBI. Please mark each page
of your submission containing CBI as ``PROPIN.'' The FAA will treat
such marked submissions as confidential under the FOIA, and they will
not be placed in the public docket of this NPRM. Submissions containing
CBI should be sent to the person listed under the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT heading at the beginning of the preamble. Any
commentary that the FAA receives which is not specifically designated
as CBI will be placed in the public docket for this rulemaking.

Background
On June 12, 2023, the FAA published an NPRM titled ``U.S. Agents
for Service on Individuals with Foreign Addresses Who Hold or Apply for
Certain Certificates, Ratings, or Authorizations,'' in the Federal
Register (88 FR 38001; Notice No. 23-07). Commenters were instructed to
provide comments on or before August 11, 2023 (i.e., 60 days from the
date of publication of the NPRM).
Since publication, the FAA has received one request to extend the
comment period to provide time to review the associated Privacy Impact
Assessment that was not available at the time of publication. The
Privacy Impact Assessment was completed on August 23, 2023, and is
publicly available on the website of the Department of Transportation
\1\ and is available on the docket for this rulemaking.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reopening of Comment Period
The FAA partially grants the petitioners' requests for an extension
of the comment period to comment on the Privacy Impact Assessment.
Under the circumstances, the FAA finds that an additional fifteen (15)
days will provide sufficient opportunity for the public to comment.
Therefore, the comment period for Notice No. 23-07 is reopened until
October 30, 2023.
The FAA will not grant any additional requests to further extend
the comment period for this rulemaking.
Issued under authority provided by 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 44701(a),
and 44703 in Washington, DC.
