applications for waivers from certain
sections of Part 107.

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

OMB Control Number: 2120–0767.
Title: Small Unmanned Aircraft
Systems (sUAS) Accident Reporting.
Form Numbers: N/A (web portal:
https://faadronezone.faa.gov).
Type of Review: Renewal.
Background: 14 CFR part 107 requires
that a small unmanned aircraft accident
be reported if it causes: (1) serious
injury to any person or any loss of

through its DroneZone web portal,
Flight Standards District Offices, or one
of the Regional Operations Centers or
the Washington Operations Center for
each small UAS accident will be used
to investigate and determine regulatory
compliance. In addition, the accident
information will go into the FAA
aircraft accident database for safety
analysis purposes by the FAA Office of
Accident Investigation and Analysis,
pursuant to its statutory safety mission.
As is currently the case for manned
aircraft accidents, small UAS accident
data will be made available to the public
and the National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB).
Respondents: Approximately 35 per
year.

Rules—FAR 91.
Form Numbers: None.
Type of Review: Renewal.
Background: The reporting and
recordkeeping requirements of Federal
Aviation Regulation (FAR) part 91,
General Operating and Flight Rules, are
authorized by part A of subtitle VII of
the revised title 49 of the United States
Code. FAR part 91 prescribes rules
governing the operation of aircraft (other
than moored balloons, kites, rockets,
unmanned free balloons and small
unmanned aircraft) within the United
States. The reporting and recordkeeping
requirements prescribed by various
sections of FAR part 91 are necessary for
FAA to assure compliance with these
provisions. The information collected
becomes a part of FAA’s official records
and is used only by the FAA for
certification, compliance and
enforcement, and when accidents,
incidents, reports of noncompliance,
safety programs, or other circumstances
require reference to records. Without
this information, the FAA would be
unable to control and maintain the
consistently high level of civil aviation
safety we enjoy.
Respondents: Approximately 21,200
airmen, state or local governments, and
businesses.
Frequency: On occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per

RFI for an additional 30-days. The full
text of the original RFI follows: The
Fixing America’s Surface Transportation
Act (FAST), enacted in December 2015,
authorized the establishment of a
Regional Infrastructure Accelerator
Demonstration Program (the Program) to
assist entities in developing improved
infrastructure priorities and financing
strategies for the accelerated
development of a project that is eligible
for funding under the Transportation
Infrastructure Finance and Innovation
Act (TIFIA) Program. The Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020
enacted on December 20, 2019
appropriated $5 million for this
Program.
DATES: Responses to this RFI are due no
later than 11:59 p.m. 30 days after
publication of this notice. The Bureau
may hold an RFI information session(s)
before the due date.
ADDRESSES: All responses MUST be
submitted electronically via email to the
Bureau at ria@dot.gov. Questions
regarding the RFI may be submitted to
the Bureau at ria@dot.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
further information regarding this RFI
please contact Sam Beydoun via email
at sam.beydoun@dot.gov or via
telephone at 202–366–2300. A TDD is
available at 202–366–3993.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Build America Bureau (the
Bureau) of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (Department or DOT) is
seeking input from interested parties
with the intent to gather as much
information as possible before
implementing the Program.
The Bureau is issuing this RFI on the
most effective, transparent and
expedient way to implement the
Program. Information gleaned from this
effort will help inform the development
of the Program and approach to
designating and funding Regional
Infrastructure Accelerators that will: (1)
Serve a defined geographic area; and (2)
act as a resource to qualified entities in
the geographic area in accordance with
Section 1441 of the FAST Act.
Background
The Bureau is responsible for driving
transportation infrastructure
development projects in the United
States through innovative financing
programs. Its mission is to provide
access to the Bureau’s credit programs
in a streamlined, expedient and
transparent manner. In accomplishing
its mission, the Bureau also provides
technical assistance and encourages
innovative best practices in project
planning, financing, delivery, and

monitoring. The Bureau draws upon the
full resources of the Department of
Transportation to best utilize the
expertise of the Department’s Operating
Administrations while promoting a
culture of innovation and customer
service.
The Transportation Infrastructure
Finance and Innovation Act of 1998 1
established a Federal credit program
(TIFIA Program) for eligible
transportation projects under which the
Department may provide three forms of
credit assistance—secured (direct)
loans, loan guarantees, and standby
lines of credit. The TIFIA Program’s
fundamental goal is to leverage federal
funds by attracting substantial private
and other non-Federal co-investment to
support critical improvements to the
Nation’s surface transportation system.
Eligible recipients of TIFIA credit
assistance include State departments of
transportation, transit operators, special
authorities, local governments and
private entities.
Demonstration Program
Section 1441 of the FAST Act (https://
www.transportation.gov/buildamerica/
programs-and-services/regionalinfrastructure-accelerators) authorizes
the Program to assist in developing
improved infrastructure priorities and
financing strategies for the accelerated
development of eligible projects. It is
envisioned that Regional Infrastructure
Accelerator(s) will act as a resource and
help facilitate delivery of projects
within a designated geographic region
while promoting investment in covered
infrastructure projects. The Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020
appropriated $5 million to carry out the
Program.
The goal of this RFI is to engage
interested parties to obtain input into
the most effective, transparent and
expedient ways to structure and deliver
the Program. Respondents to this RFI
are encouraged to provide related
information and answers to one or more
of the following:
Structure
(1) What would be an effective form
of the accelerator that could influence
the development of infrastructure
projects, and what type of structure and
authority would be required for the
establishment of a regional accelerator?
Are there examples of such entities from
around the country and abroad, or in
other sectors that could be used as a
model for the Program?
(2) What barriers such as regulatory,
technical and institutional (public or
