use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Please note that comments submitted in
response to this Notice are public
record. Before including any detailed
personal information, you should be
aware that your comments as submitted,
including your personal information,
will be available for public review.
Abstract of Proposed Collection
Forms DS–1843 and DS–1622 collect
medical history, lab tests, and physical
examinations for all individuals
applying for overseas positions,
including their eligible family members.
Forms DS–1843 and DS–1622 are
designed to collect sufficient and
current medical information on the
individual in order for a medical
provider to make a medical clearance
determination for initial appointment to
an overseas assignment. They are also
used to determine whether the
individual or eligible family member
will have appropriate medical and/or
educational resources at a diplomatic
mission/host country abroad to
maintain the health and safety of the
individual or family member. The forms
were updated to include questions
regarding employment agency
information for non-foreign service
agencies. Once the collection
instruments have been approved, the
DS–1843/1622 can be used by
respondents employed by both foreign
and non-foreign service agencies,
rendering the DS–6561 form redundant.
As a result, the DS–6561 would be
discontinued upon OMB approval of the
revised DS–1843 and DS–1622 forms.
Methodology
The respondent will obtain the DS–
1843 and DS1622 forms from their
human resources representative or
download the forms from a Department
website. The respondent will complete
and submit the forms offline.

Director of Medical Clearances.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA
invites public comment on the request
to release one tract of land consisting of
approximately 16.06 acres of airport
property at the Ankeny Regional Airport
(IKV) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C.
47107(h)(2). On February 12, 2020, the
Attorney for the Polk County Aviation
Authority requested a release from the
FAA to sell a tract of land, 16.06 acres.
Buyer, Van Houweling Property LLC,
will use the land for development. On
May 4, 2020, the FAA determined that
the request to release property at the
Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV)
submitted by the Sponsor meets the
procedural requirements of the Federal
Aviation Administration and the release
of the property does not and will not
impact future aviation needs at the
airport. The FAA may approve the
request, in whole or in part, no sooner
than thirty days after the publication of
this notice.
The following is a brief overview of
the request:
The Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV) is
proposing the release of airport property
containing 16.06 acres, more or less.
The release of land is necessary to
comply with Federal Aviation
Administration Grant Assurances that
do not allow federally acquired airport
property to be used for non-aviation
purposes. The sale of the subject
PO 00000
Frm 00151

property will result in the land at the
Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV) being
changed from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use and release the lands
from the conditions of the Airport
Improvement Program Grant Agreement
Grant Assurances in order to dispose of
the land. In accordance with 49 U.S.C.
47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), the airport
will receive fair market value for the
property, which will be subsequently
reinvested in another eligible airport
improvement project for general
aviation use.
Any person may inspect, by
appointment, the request in person at
the FAA office listed above under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. In
addition, any person may, upon
appointment and request, inspect the
application, notice and other documents
determined by the FAA to be related to
the application in person at the Ankeny
City Hall.
Issued in Kansas City, MO on May 4, 2020.

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–
Title: Survey of Unmanned-AircraftSystems Operators.
Form Numbers: Online Collection.
Type of Review: New Information
Collection.
Background: The FAA
Reauthorizations Act of 2018 explicitly
charges the FAA with developing a plan
to implement an unmanned aircraft
systems traffic management (UTM)
services. The development of this
congressionally mandated plan requires
an estimation of current activity by UAS
operators and projecting this behavior
into the future as economic, technology,
and regulatory condition change. Given
the lack of available data on the flight
behavior of UAS operators, the FAA
proposes a survey of UAS operators who
have registered with the FAA under
Section 349 or Part 107.
Survey consists of a voluntary
questionnaire administered online.
Registrants within the FAA’s UAS
registrations under Part 107 and Section
349 are invited to complete the
questionnaire via email. The email
contains a personalized link to the
questionnaire hosted by Survey
Monkey. The questionnaire contains:
• 6 questions on general flight
behavior,
• 4 questions about the number and
types of UAS operated,
• 5 questions for respondents who
identity as commercial operators, and
• 7 questions for respondents who
identify as operating for public safety
agencies.
Including a social-media preference
and self-identifying questions, the
questionnaire contains a total 24
question. However, the majority of
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
respondents will only answer the first
12 questions.
The data obtained from the survey
will be used for developing national
forecasts of UAS activity. Summary data
from the proposed survey will be
included in the Aviation Forecast
published annually by the FAA.
Respondents: Recreational and
commercial operators of unmanned
aircraft systems (UAS) who have
registered with the FAA under Section
349 and Part 107, respectively.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 5.3 minutes on average.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
10,881 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC on 5–8–2020.
