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 for a new information collection. The collection involves conducting research in the form of interviews with aviation stakeholders (e.g., airport/droneport operators, private entities, original equipment manufacturers, unmanned aircraft system (UAS) industry vendors, academia, representatives of the military, aviation stakeholders, etc.) to catalog current and planned droneport planning, design, and infrastructure needs, as well as find out which airports are integrating UAS into the airport environment. During each interview, the FAA will ask the stakeholders a specific set of questions, and if necessary, factspecific follow-up questions will be posed to clarify and enhance the respondent’s answers to the specified set of questions. The information to be collected is necessary because it will allow the FAA to understand how aviation stakeholders are integrating SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00083 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7435 UAS into existing airport design standards/infrastructure and standalone facilities also referred to as droneports. Currently, no formal FAA definition of droneport currently exists. Based on the results of this research effort, the FAA may develop a formal definition for a droneport. For the purposes of this research effort, a modified version of the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 1 definition of ‘airport’ is used to define droneport: ‘an area of land or water that is used or intended to be used for the landing and takeoff of UAS aircraft, and includes its buildings and facilities, if any.’ The information collected will also be used to help the FAA to shape future droneport research efforts and possible standards and guidance material.

Abstract of Proposed Collection

    The information collection activity will garner qualitative 
customer feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with 
the Administration's commitment to improving service delivery. This 
qualitative feedback will provide insights into customer perceptions, 
experiences and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with 
service, or focus attention on areas where communication, training or 
changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services. 
These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative and actionable 
communications between the Agency and its customers. It will also allow 
feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program 
management.
    Feedback collected under this generic clearance will provide useful 
information, but it will not yield data that can be used for 
quantitative information collections that are designed to yield 
reliably actionable results, such as monitoring trends over time or 
documenting program performance. Such data uses require more rigorous 
designs that address: the target population to which generalizations 
will be made, the sampling frame, the sample design (including 
stratification and clustering), the precision requirements or power 
calculations that justify the proposed sample size, the expected 
response rate, methods for assessing potential non-response bias, the 
protocols for data collection, and any testing procedures that were or 
will be undertaken prior fielding the study. Depending on the degree of 
influence the results are likely to have, such collections may still be 
eligible for submission for other generic mechanisms that are designed 
to yield quantitative results.

Methodology

    Respondents will fill out a brief customer survey after completing 
their interaction with a Department Program Office or Embassy. Surveys 
are designed to gather feedback on the customer's experiences.
