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
identifying information regarding
foreign-registered civil unmanned
aircraft operated in the airspace of the
United States. The information to be
collected will be used to associate a
foreign-registered unmanned aircraft
operating in the United States with
Remote Identification to the unmanned
aircraft operator.

Title: Identification of ForeignRegistered Civil Unmanned Aircraft
Operating in the United States.
Form Numbers: N/A.
Type of Review: Renewal of an
information collection.
Background: The unmanned aircraft
remote identification operating
requirements in title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations, part 89 apply to persons
operating foreign civil unmanned
aircraft in the United States. The FAA
must be able to correlate the remote
identification message elements
broadcast by foreign civil unmanned
aircraft operated in the United States
against information that helps FAA and
law enforcement identify a person
responsible for the operation of the
foreign civil unmanned aircraft. Where
unmanned aircraft are registered in a
foreign jurisdiction, the FAA may not
have access to information regarding the
unmanned aircraft or its registered
owner. Thus, the FAA is allowing a
person to operate foreign-registered civil
unmanned aircraft with remote
identification in the United States only
if the person submits a notice of
identification to the Administrator in
accordance with title 14 Code of Federal
Regulations § 89.130. The notice can be
submitted online using the notice of
identification form in FAA Drone Zone
(https://faadronezone.faa.gov/). The

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 213 / Monday, November 6, 2023 / Notices
notice includes the following
information to allow FAA to associate
an unmanned aircraft to a responsible
person:
(1) An indication whether the person
operating the foreign registered civil
unmanned aircraft in the United States
is an organization or an individual.
(2) The name of the person operating
the foreign registered civil unmanned
aircraft in the United States, and, if
applicable, the person’s authorized
representative.
(3) The physical address of the person
operating the foreign registered civil
unmanned aircraft in the United States,
and, if applicable, the physical address
for the person’s authorized
representative. If the operator or
authorized representative does not
receive mail at the physical address, a
mailing address must also be provided.
(4) The telephone number(s) where
the person operating the foreign
registered civil unmanned aircraft in the
United States, and, if applicable, the
person’s authorized representative can
be reached while in the United States.
(5) The email address of the person
operating the foreign registered civil
unmanned aircraft in the United States,
and, if applicable, the email address of
the person’s authorized representative.
(6) An indication whether the
unmanned aircraft is a standard remote
identification unmanned aircraft or has
a remote identification broadcast
module.
(7) The unmanned aircraft
manufacturer and model name.
(8) The serial number of the
unmanned aircraft or remote
identification broadcast module.
(8) The country of registration of the
unmanned aircraft.
(10) The registration number.
Once a person submits an online
notice of identification, the FAA will
issue a confirmation of identification. A
person operating a foreign-registered
unmanned aircraft in the United States
must maintain the confirmation of
identification at the unmanned aircraft’s
control station and must produce it
when requested by the FAA or a law
enforcement officer.
The holder of a confirmation of
identification must ensure the
information provided under § 89.130(a)
remains accurate and is updated prior to
operating a foreign registered civil
unmanned aircraft with remote
identification in the United States. The
confirmation of identification expires
after one year and can be cancelled or
renewed online at FAA Drone Zone.
Respondents: Operators of foreignregistered civil unmanned aircraft with
remote identification, as needed (prior

United States) are mandated to report
information to this collection. The FAA
uses information provided by operators
of foreign-registered civil unmanned
aircraft operating in the airspace of the
United States to identify those aircraft.
Frequency: As needed prior to
operation of a foreign-registered civil
unmanned aircraft in the United States.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 6 minutes per response.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days’ notice to the public to
allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB
approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C.
3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8 through
1320.12. Specifically, FRA invites
interested parties to comment on the
following ICR regarding: (1) whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
activities will have practical utility; (2)
the accuracy of FRA’s estimates of the
burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (4) ways for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
FRA believes that soliciting public
comment may reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information that
Federal regulations mandate. In
summary, comments received will
advance three objectives: (1) reduce
reporting burdens; (2) organize
information collection requirements in a
‘‘user-friendly’’ format to improve the
use of such information; and (3)
accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
The summary below describes the ICR
that FRA will submit for OMB clearance
as the PRA requires:
Title: Locomotive Crashworthiness.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0564.
Abstract: Under 49 CFR part 229,
subpart D, FRA prescribes minimum
crashworthiness standards for certain
locomotives. These crashworthiness
standards are intended to help protect
locomotive cab occupants in the event
of a train collision or derailment. FRA
uses this collection of information to
ensure railroads operate locomotives
that meet the prescribed minimum
performance standards and design load
