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 December
4, 2014. Airworthiness Directives (ADs)
are regulations issued to require correct
corrective action to correct unsafe
conditions in aircraft, engines,
propellers, and appliances. Reports of
inspections are often needed when
emergency corrective action is taken to
determine if the action was adequate to
correct the unsafe condition. The
respondents are aircraft owners and
operators.
Currently, FAA has blanket
Paperwork Reduction Act approval from
OMB for all ADs with information
collection requirements. Per OMB’s
request, this collection is being
converted to a generic information
collection request, which will require
FAA to submit individual ADs with
reporting requirements to OMB for
approval prior to their release.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by March 12, 2015.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to the attention of the Desk Officer,
Department of Transportation/FAA, and
sent via electronic mail to oira_
submission@omb.eop.gov, or faxed to
(202) 395–6974, or mailed to the Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget,

lease their aircraft to another owner in
that pool.

AGENCY:
Pursuant to the Department’s
regulations, certain air carriers are
required to file BTS Schedule B–7
(Airframe and Aircraft Engine
Acquisitions and Retirements) and
Schedule B–43 (Inventory of Airframes
and Aircraft Engines). Under the
Department’s regulations, the
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
Department can withhold confidential
business information if release of the
confidential information is likely to
cause substantial competitive harm to
the entity that submitted the
information to the Department. The BTS
routinely grants, based on the sensitive
nature of this cost data, a ten-year
confidentiality period. After receiving
notification that, upon the expiration of
the ten-year confidentiality period, the
BTS intended to release the cost data,
the United Parcel Service Co. (UPS) and
United Air Lines, Inc. (United) filed
objections to the pending release. Both
UPS and United claimed that the cost
data, although ten years old, remained
sensitive and its release would result in
competitive harm. The cost data is now
20 years old.
BTS is seeking public comments on
the merits of the UPS and United
positions and views on whether the BTS
should increase the confidentiality
period for certain airframe and aircraft
engine cost data.
DATES: Comments must be received by
April 13, 2015.

Request for Public Comments
We are inviting public comments on
the UPS and United requests and views
on whether BTS’ confidentiality period
should be retained or amended. Based
on the public comments and a review of
the requests to extend the
confidentiality period, BTS will
consider retaining or amending its
confidentiality period.
We are posing a series of questions in
the hope that the public comments will
address several issues in particular:
(1) Do you use the airframe and
aircraft engine cost data required under
Part 241 and, if so, how do you use the
data elements?
(2) Should BTS amend or retain its
confidentiality period for airframe and
aircraft engine cost data?
(3) Should BTS change the manner in
which it collects these data elements?
(4) Would it be in the public interest
for BTS to grant the confidentiality
extension requests?

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to 14 CFR part 241, certain air carriers
are required to file BTS Schedule B–7
(Airframe and Aircraft Engine
Acquisitions and Retirements) and
Schedule B–43 (Inventory of Airframes
and Aircraft Engines). These schedules
contain cost data concerning airframes
and aircraft engines. In previous
confidentiality requests, UPS and
United requested and the Department
granted a ten-year period of
confidentiality for the cost data reported
on the Form 41, Schedules B–7 and B–
43.
Prior to the expiration of the ten-year
period, BTS informed twelve air carriers
that, at the close of the ten-year period
(October 1, 2004), the agency intended
to release the information. In a
September 14, 2004 letter, UPS filed
objections to the release and, in a
September 23, 2004 letter, United also
filed objections to the release (see BTS
