Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 189 / Monday, October 4, 2021 / Notices
are expected to allow some higher levels
of operations in certain periods (not to
exceed the hourly limits) and some
recovery from lower demand in adjacent
periods. Consistent with general
established practice at EWR, the FAA
will accept flights above the limits if the
flights were operated as approved, or
treated as operated, by the same carrier
on a regular basis in the previous
corresponding season (i.e., Summer
2021).
Notwithstanding the targeted limits at
EWR previously described, OST and the
FAA have announced the intent to
reintroduce and reassign 16 peak
afternoon and evening runway timings,
which were historically approved for
operation by Southwest Airlines, Inc. at
EWR prior to the carrier’s exit from the
airport in November 2019. As proposed,
these 16 timings would be reassigned
for the benefit of a single low-cost
carrier or ultra-low-cost carrier at EWR.8
This proposed EWR reassignment
process responds to the decision of the
Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in
Spirit Airlines v. DOT, et al., and
furthers the whole of government
approach to competition embodied in
the President’s Executive Order on
Promoting Competition in the American
Economy (E.O. 14036). This proposed
reassignment of schedule timings at
EWR is an independent process outside
of the FAA’s routine schedule review
process. While the FAA would
accommodate the reassignment of the 16
peak afternoon and evening operations
as proposed in the September 20, 2021
notice, the FAA would continue to seek
voluntary cooperation from all carriers
to adjust schedules at EWR in an effort
to manage the operation within the
desired scheduling limits. Once the
reassignment proceeding is complete,
the FAA would seek to work in
coordination with the awarded carrier to
adjust schedules within the peak
afternoon and evening period, including
minor changes between adjacent half
hours, in the interest of optimizing
efficiency and accommodating the
carrier’s schedule plans, consistent with
the usual Level 2 process.

30, 2021.

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of a Renewed Approval of
Information Collection: Renewal of
AVIATOR (Automated Vacancy

Referral) Customer Satisfaction Survey
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
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 February
2, 2021. Note, the publication is
referenced under ‘‘OMB–0076’’ in error;
it should have indicated ‘‘OMB–2120–
0699’’. The collection involves on-line,
electronic applicant (customer) answers
to standard survey questions. The
questions are presented as multiplechoice selections and free-form text
areas where applicants can choose their
desired answer and, if they wish, add
additional comments. The information
to be collected will be used to and is
necessary to gage the level of user
satisfaction with the AVIATOR
(Automated Vacancy Information
Access Tool for Online Referral) system.
Additionally, the surveys are used to
obtain benchmarking and feedback to
ensure quality.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by October 28, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open

Type of Review: Renewal of an
information collection.
Background: The Federal Register
Notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on the following
collection of information was published
on February 2, 2021 (86 FR 7919). The
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993 (GPRA) Section 2(b)(3)
requires agencies to ‘‘improve Federal
program effectiveness and public
accountability by promoting a new
focus on results, service quality, and
customer satisfaction’’. In addition, as
stated in the White House
‘‘Memorandum for Heads of Executive
Departments and Agencies’’ regarding
Executive Order No. 12862, ‘‘the actions
the order prescribes, such as surveying
customers, surveying employees, and
benchmarking, shall be continuing
agency activities’’. This collection
supports the Department of
Transportation (DOT) strategic goal of
Organizational Excellence.
In compliance with the Government
Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA), all
of our data collection will be 100%
electronic using an online form;
Applicants will be asked to complete
the survey just before they exit the
system. The AVIATOR Customer
Satisfaction Survey is designed to
identify potential problems with FAA’s
automated staffing solutions as well as
to evaluate customer satisfaction with
the on-line application process. The
information is not gathered by any other
collection. It will be difficult, if not
impossible, to improve the AVIATOR
system’s overall performance and
customer satisfaction without utilizing
the survey as a performance
measurement tool.
Respondents: 138,953 U.S. citizens,
identified as applicants (from January 1,
2019 to December 31, 2019) applying for
employment with the Federal Aviation
Administration, had the opportunity to
complete a survey. 9% (13,019) of
applicants completed surveys during
this time frame.
Frequency: On occasion/as interested.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 3 minutes per response.
