See 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2)(i). 3 The filing fee for OFAs can be found at 49 CFR 1002.2(f)(25). 4 Because this is a discontinuance proceeding and not an abandonment, interim trail use/rail banking and public use conditions are not appropriate in this docket. However, as explained in Ohio Rail Development Commission—Petition for Declaratory Order, FD 36387, slip op. at 6–7 (STB served Dec. 22, 2020), once Ohi-Rail is authorized to discontinue service on the Line, requests for issuance of a certificate of interim trail use or abandonment for the Line’s right-of-way may be filed by a potential trail sponsor in the abandonment docket, Conrail Abandonment of Lines in Zanesville Ohio, Docket No. AB 167 (SubNo. 445N). In addition, because the Line has already been authorized for abandonment, this discontinuance does not require an environmental review.

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 collection involves voluntary reporting of bird/other wildlife strike information following a wildlife strike incident with aircraft. This data becomes part of the publicly available National Wildlife Strike Database. Strike reports provide critical information that allows the FAA to determine high-risk species, track national trends, evaluate the FAA’s wildlife hazard management program, and provide scientific foundation for regulatory guidance. Additionally, this essential information allows engine and airframe manufacturers to evaluate the effectiveness of aircraft components. It also helps airports identify and mitigate hazardous species and the location of wildlife attractants, affords a better understanding of strike dynamics, and provides key metrics for an airport to evaluate the effectiveness of its wildlife management program.
