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 Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on May 28, 2024. The collection involves applying for a repair station certificate, requesting amendments to the certificate, developing required programs and manuals, and maintaining employee qualification and training records. Additionally, repair stations located outside of the United States must apply to renew their FAA air agency certificate every two years. The information to be collected will be used to ensure applicants and certificate holders of FAA-issued repair station certificates use appropriate facilities and equipment, have sufficient processes and procedures, and use qualified personnel with appropriate training to perform maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alterations of aircraft, airframes, aircraft engines, propellers, appliances, or component parts. The title of this collection is being revised to better reflect the purpose of the information collected.

developing required programs and manuals, and maintaining employee
qualification and training records. Additionally, repair stations
located outside of the United States must apply to renew their FAA air
agency certificate every two years. The information to be collected
will be used to ensure applicants and certificate holders of FAA-issued
repair station certificates use appropriate facilities and equipment,
have sufficient processes and procedures, and use qualified personnel
with appropriate training to perform maintenance, preventive
maintenance, or alterations of aircraft, airframes, aircraft engines,
propellers, appliances, or component parts. The title of this
collection is being revised to better reflect the purpose of the
information collected.

Title: Certification of Repair Stations, Part 145 of Title 14, CFR
145.
Form Numbers: FAA Form 8310-3.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on May 28, 2024 (89 FR 46293). Title 14 CFR, part 145,
describes how to obtain a repair station certificate and contains the
rules a certificated repair station must follow related to its
performance of maintenance, preventive maintenance, or alterations of
an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine, propeller, appliance, or
component part to which part 43 applies. The regulation requires repair
station certificate holders and applicants to apply for a repair
station certificate, including providing various application
attachments, develop required programs and manuals, make certifications
regarding hazardous materials training of employees, recommend
repairman applicants employed by the repair station, and maintain
employee qualification and training records. All certificate holders
and applicants must develop a repair station manual, quality control
manual, and training program, and request amendments to the certificate
when necessary. Some certificate holders and applicants must develop a
capability list, or a manual required by a bilateral agreement, or a
hazardous materials training program. Repair stations located outside
of the United States must apply to renew their FAA air agency
certificate every two years. Additionally, the holder of an expired,
surrendered, suspended, or revoked certificate must return it to the
FAA. Requests for an initial certificate or a certificate amendment are
made on FAA Form 8310-3, Application for Repair Station Certificate
and/or Rating, and must be submitted to the responsible Flight
Standards Office along with all required application attachments. The
estimated burden per response and total annual burden is revised from
the 60-day notice due to additional analysis being performed by the
FAA. The title of this collection is being revised from ``Certification
of Repair Stations, Part 145 of Title 14, CFR'' to ``Certification and
Operation of Repair Stations, 14 CFR part 145'' to better reflect the
purpose of the information collected.
Respondents: 5,000 applicants and holders of FAA-issued part 145
air agency certificates.
Frequency: On occasion, or every 2 years for renewal applicants.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 65 Hours annually for
Reporting, 40 Hours for Recordkeeping.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 240,869 Hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on August 22, 2024.

Aviation Safety Inspector, Office of Safety Standards, Aircraft
Maintenance Division, Repair Station Section.
