DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: B4UFLY 
Smartphone App

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: 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 FAA's B4UFLY smartphone app will provide situational 
awareness of flight restrictions--including locations of airports, 
restricted airspace, special use airspaces, and temporary flight 
restrictions--based on a user's current or planned flight location.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by January 25, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to the FAA at the following address: Ronda 
Thompson, Room 441, Federal Aviation Administration, ASP-110, 950 
L'Enfant Plaza SW., Washington, DC 20024.
    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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ronda Thompson at (202) 267-1416, or 
by email at: Ronda.Thompson@faa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0764.
    Title: B4UFLY Smartphone App.
    Form Numbers: There are no forms associated with this collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: Public Law 112-95, section 336 requires model aircraft 
operators to notify the airport operator and air traffic control tower 
(if one is located at the airport) prior to operating within 5 miles of 
an airport. The FAA's B4UFLY smartphone app will provide situational 
awareness of flight restrictions--including locations of airports, 
restricted airspace, special use airspaces, and temporary flight 
restrictions--based on a user's current or planned flight location. In 
order to maintain NAS safety in proximity to airports, air traffic 
control personnel would need certain basic information about a UAS 
operator's intended flight in order to assess whether the UAS may 
disrupt or endanger manned air traffic.
    Respondents: Approximately 1000 beta testers.
    Frequency: 5 submissions per week.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: approximately 2 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 1,485 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC on November 18, 2015.

FAA Information Collection Clearance Officer, Performance, Policy, and 
Records Management Branch, ASP-110.
