(including moored balloons, kites, unmanned rockets, and unmanned free
balloons) and small unmanned aircraft systems.

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.
OMB Control Number: 2120-0027.
Title: Application for Certificate of Waiver or Authorization.
Form Numbers: FAA form 7711-2.
Type of Review: Renewal.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on December 6, 2023 (88 FR 84871). The information
collected by FAA Form 7711-2, Application for Certificate of Waiver or
Authorization, is reviewed and analyzed by the FAA to determine the
type and extent of the intended deviation from prescribed regulations.
A certificate of waiver or authorization to deviate is generally issued
to the applicant (individuals and businesses) if the proposed operation
does not create a hazard to persons, property, or other aircraft, and
includes the operation of unmanned aircraft. Applications for
certificates of waiver to the provisions of parts 91 and 101 are made
by using FAA Form 7711-2. Application for authorization to make
parachute jumps (other than emergency or military operations) under
part 105, section 105.15 (airshows and meets) also uses FAA Form 7711-
2. Application for other types of parachute jumping activities are
submitted in various ways; e.g., in writing, in person, by telephone,
etc.
Persons authorized to deviate from provisions of part 101 are
required to give notice of actual activities. Persons operating in
accordance with the provisions of part 101 are also required to give
notice of actual activities. In both instances, the notice of
information required is the same. Therefore, the burden associated with
applications for certificates of waiver or authorization and the burden
associated with notices of actual aircraft activities are identified
and included in this request for clearance.
Regarding operation of small unmanned aircraft systems under part
107, to obtain a certificate of waiver, an applicant will have to
submit a request containing a complete description of the proposed
operation and a justification, including supporting data and
documentation as necessary that establishes that the proposed operation
can safely be conducted under the terms of a certificate of waiver. The
FAA expects that the amount of data and analysis required as part of
the application will be proportional to the specific relief that is
requested.
Respondents: 26,495, including approximately 5,500 annual
applications for waivers from certain sections of Part 107.
Frequency: On occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 45 minutes for non-part 107
waivers; 45.7 hours for part 107 waivers.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 19,871 hours (not-part 107) +
251,520 (part 107) = 271,391 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on March 15, 2024.

Commercial Division.
