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

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: 2120-0707.
    Title: Survey of Airman Satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification 
Services.
    Form Numbers: N/A.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through the 
Office of Aerospace Medicine (OAM), is responsible for the medical 
certification of pilots and certain other personnel under 14 CFR 67 to 
ensure they are medically qualified to operate aircraft and perform 
their duties safely. In the accomplishment of this responsibility, OAM 
provides a number of services to pilots, and has established goals for 
the performance of those services, including a biennial survey designed 
to meet the requirement to survey stakeholder satisfaction under 
Executive Order No. 12862, ``Setting Customer Service Standards,'' and 
the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA).
    The survey of airman satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification 
Services assesses airman opinion of key dimensions of service quality. 
These

[[Page 14317]]

dimensions, identified by the OMB Statistical Policy Office in the 1993 
``Resource Manual for Customer Surveys,'' are courtesy, competence, 
reliability, and communication. The survey also provides airmen with 
the opportunity to provide feedback on the services and a medical 
certificate application tool they use. This information is used to 
inform improvements in Aeromedical Certification Services.
    The survey was initially deployed in 2004, and deployed again in 
2006, 2008, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2019, and 2021 (OMB Control No. 2120-
0707). Across collections, minor revisions have been made to the survey 
items and response options to reflect changes in operational services 
and survey technology. To reduce the burden on the individual 
respondent and potentially improve the response rate, this information 
collection will be electronic.
    Respondents: 5,300 Airmen.
    Frequency: Biannually.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 15 minutes per respondent, 1,325 
total burden hours.
