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 July 03, 2024. The collection involves an aircraft pilot's voluntary submission of weather conditions that were encountered while in flight. The information to be collected is necessary because Pilot Report (PIREP) Solicitation and Dissemination has been identified by the ATO as one of the Top 5 hazards in the National Airspace System (NAS). For certain weather conditions, PIREPs are the only means of confirmation that forecasted conditions are occurring. The FAA 7110-2 PIREP Form is a guide to assist pilots in submitting Pilot Weather Reports into the NAS.

Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on July 03, 2024 (89 FR 55301). Pilot reporting of
weather conditions, commonly referred to as PIREPs, has been standard
procedure during most of the twentieth century. PIREPs are voluntary
reports from pilots describing weather conditions observed while
flying. In some instances, PIREPs are the only way for forecasters to
confirm the forecasted conditions are occurring. Complete, accurate,
and timely weather information from PIREPs is an essential element of
flight safety for all aircraft operations in the National Airspace
System (NAS). This information is used by pilots to avoid inadvertent
encounters with hazardous weather and preventing weather-related
accidents. Pilots most commonly submit PIREPs verbally via radio to air
traffic control (ATC). The PIREP Form, FAA Form 7110-2, is a tool to
assist ATC personnel and pilots to report the conditions encountered in
the proper format. It is essential that the weather conditions in a
PIREP be reported be in the correct format to ensure the timely
dissemination and availability to the users of the NAS, to include
pilots, ATC, National Weather Service (NWS) meteorologists, and weather
researchers. The collection of PIREPs is as needed.
Respondents: Pilots.
Frequency: On occasion, depending on the weather conditions
encountered.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: Three minutes per hour.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: <1 hour per respondent.
Issued in Washington, DC on October 15, 2024.
