SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION On July 21, 2010, the final rule entitled 
Safe, Efficient Use and Preservation of the Navigable Airspace, was 
published in the Federal Register.\1\ In that rule, the FAA amended the 
regulations governing objects that may affect the navigable airspace to 
incorporate case law and legislative action, and to simplify the rule 
language.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 75 FR 42296; July 21, 2010.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In section III \2\ of the preamble to the final rule, the FAA noted 
that affected parties were not required to comply with the new 
information collection requirements until OMB approved the FAA's 
request to collect the information.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ Paperwork Reduction Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, the FAA submitted a 
copy of the new information collection requirements to OMB for its 
review. On January 14, 2011, OMB approved the FAA's request under 
Control Number 2120-0745, which will expire January 31, 2013.
    Today's notice is being published to inform affected parties of 
OMB's approval, and to announce that as of the effective date of this 
notice, affected parties must comply with the new information 
collection requirements in 14 CFR 77.7, 77.9, and 77.11.
    As part of OMB's approval, it advised the FAA that because the form 
\3\ that will be used to collect the new information was previously 
approved under existing Control Number 2120-0001, the FAA must revise 
2120-0001 to incorporate the new information collection requirements 
and submit the revision to OMB for approval. Accordingly, the FAA will 
prepare the revision and publish it in the Federal Register for public 
comment. The FAA will consider the comments it receives before 
finalizing the revision and sending it to OMB for approval. Meanwhile, 
affected parties must comply with the information collection 
requirements in the final rule, Safe, Efficient Use and Preservation of 
the Navigable Airspace, according to OMB's approval under Control 
Number 2120-0745.
