DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

[Docket No. FAA-2024-2081]

Agency Information Collection Activities: Clearance of Renewed 
Approval of Information Collection: Airport Noise Compatibility 
Planning

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invites public comments about our 
intention to request the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) 
approval to renew an information collection. The collection involves 
information on voluntary airport noise compatibility programs. The 
information to be collected is necessary because noise compatibility 
program measures are eligible for Federal grants in-aid if they are 
provided to FAA for review and approval in advance. The respondents are 
airport sponsors that voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise 
compatibility programs to the FAA for review and approval.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by December 13, 2024.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the FAA's request 
for OMB's approval to renew this information collection should be sent 
within 30 days of publication of this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this information collection by selecting ``Currently 
under 30-day Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search 
function. Comments may also be submitted via electronic mail to 
[email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Susan Staehle by electronic mail at: 
[email protected] or by phone at: 202-267-7935.

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. The agency will summarize and/or include 
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information 
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0517.
    Title: Airport Noise Compatibility Planning.
    Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this 
collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an Information Collection.
    Background: The voluntarily submitted information from the 
collection process pursuant to tile 14 Code of Federal Regulations 
(CFR) part 150, (e.g., airport noise exposure maps and airport noise 
compatibility programs, or their revisions) is used by the FAA to 
conduct reviews of the submissions to determine if an airport sponsor's 
noise compatibility program is eligible for Federal grant funds. If 
airport sponsors did not voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and 
noise compatibility programs for FAA review and approval, the airport 
sponsor would not be eligible for the set aside of discretionary grant 
funds. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day review period 
soliciting comments on this information collection of information was 
published in the Federal Register on August 5, 2024 (89 FR 63466) and 
no public comments were received.
    Respondents: Approximately 15 airport sponsors.
    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 2,080 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 31,200 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, November 6, 2024.

Environmental Protection Specialist, Office of Airports, Planning and 
Environmental Division, APP-400.
