SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information to be collected will be used
to and/or is necessary because the FAA must evaluate proposed outdoor
laser operations requiring a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
variance from 21 CFR 1040.11(c) for a laser light show, display, or
device.
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: 2120-0662.
Title: Notice of Proposed Outdoor Laser Operation(s).
Form Numbers: FAA Form 7140-1.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: No laser light show, projection system, or device may
vary from compliance with 21 CFR 1040.11(c) in design or use without
the approval of an application for variance in accordance with 21 CFR
1010.4 using FDA Form 3147. In order to obtain a variance from 21 CFR
1040.11(c) for a laser light show, display, or device (as described on
FDA Form 3147); advance written notification must be made as early as
possible to appropriate federal, state, and local authorities providing
show itinerary with dates and locations clearly and completely
identified, and a basic description of the proposed effects including a
statement of the maximum power output intended. Such notifications must
be made, but not
[[Page 88701]]
necessarily be limited, to the FAA for any projections into open
airspace at any time (e.g., set up, alignment, rehearsals, and
performances). If the FAA objects to any laser effects, the objections
will be resolved and any conditions requested by FAA will be adhered
to. If these conditions cannot be met, the objectionable effects will
be deleted from the show.
FAA Advisory Circular (AC) 70-1B with Change 1, Outdoor Laser
Operations, provides information for those proponents planning to
conduct outdoor laser operations that may affect aircraft operations in
the United States (U.S.) National Airspace System (NAS). In addition,
this AC explains the necessity to notify the FAA, how to notify the FAA
of the planned laser operation, and any action the FAA will take to
respond to such notifications. Furthermore, the AC includes
instructions for completing and submitting the requisite FAA Form 7140-
1, Notice of Proposed Outdoor Laser Operation(s).
Respondents: Approximately 455 laser operations.
Frequency: One time per laser operation.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: Approximately four hours per
form.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: Approximately 1,820 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on December 18, 2023.

Manager, Rules & Regulations Group, AJV-P2, Air Traffic Organization.
