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 requirements primarily applicable to air carriers conducting domestic, flag, and supplemental operations to enhance the professional development of pilots in those operations. The action requires air carriers conducting domestic, flag, and supplemental operations to provide new-hire pilots with an opportunity to observe flight operations and become familiar with procedures before serving as a flightcrew member in operations. Additionally, it requires air carriers who have not previously revised the upgrade training to include professional development and to provide leadership and command and mentoring training for all pilots in command. The information to be collected is necessary to mitigate incidents of unprofessional pilot behavior and reduce pilot errors that can lead to a catastrophic event. DATES: Written comments should be submitted by April 12, 2024. ADDRESSES: Please send written comments: By Electronic Docket: www.regulations.gov (Enter docket number into search field).

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: 2120–0802. Title: Pilot Professional Development. Form Numbers: None. Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection. Background: The collection involves requirements primarily applicable to air carriers conducting domestic, flag, and supplemental operations to enhance the professional development of pilots in those operations. These amendments to part 121 set out prerequisites and levy requirements that must be met by certificate holders using part 121 pilot training and qualification programs and by those individuals who serve in given capacities for those certificate holders. The FAA anticipates that certificate holders will incur costs for the following groups of provisions: • Operations familiarization for newhire pilots (§ 121.435); • Leadership and command and mentoring ground training for pilots currently serving as pilot in command (PIC) (§ 121.429) and recurrent PIC leadership and command and mentoring ground training (§§ 121.409(b) and 121.427); • Leadership and command training and recurrent leadership and command training for pilots serving as second in command (SIC) in operations that require three or more pilots (§ 121.432(a)); • Upgrade training curriculum requirements (§§ 121.420 and 121.426); • Part 121, Appendix H requirements; and • Approval of Qualification Standards Document for certificate holders using an Advanced Qualification Program (AQP) (§ 121.909). The development and approval of new and revised curriculums will be a one-time occurrence for each certificate holder. The documentation regarding training in leadership and command PO 00000 Frm 00069 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 and mentoring for current PICs will be a one-time occurrence. Similarly, the documentation regarding training in leadership and command for current SICs serving in operations that require three or more pilots will be a one-time occurrence. The documentation of operations familiarization for new-hire pilots will occur once for each new-hire pilot. The documentation of recurrent PIC leadership and command and mentoring training will occur every three years for each PIC. The documentation of recurrent leadership and command training for SICs serving in operations that require three or more pilots will occur every three years for each such SIC. Respondents: Part 121 Air Carriers. Frequency: Varies per Requirement. Estimated Average Burden per Response: Varies per Requirement. Estimated Total Annual Burden: 341 Hours.

    Title: Limited Recreational Unmanned Aircraft Operation 
Applications.
    Form Numbers: Online collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal.
    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on August 7, 2023 (88 FR 52240). In 2018, Congress passed 
the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 (Pub. L. 115-254). Section 44809 of 
Public Law 115-254 allows a person to operate a small unmanned aircraft 
(UA) without specific certification or operating authority from the FAA 
if the operation adheres to certain limitations. These limitations 
require the FAA to recognize community-based organizations (CBOs), 
develop and administer an aeronautical knowledge and safety test, 
establish fixed flying sites, approve standards and limitations for 
unmanned aircraft weighing more than 55 pounds, and designate FAA 
Recognized Identification Areas (FRIAs).
    The information will be collected online, primarily through the 
FAA's DroneZone website. The information collected will be limited to 
only that necessary for the FAA to complete a review of an application 
under the following statutory requirements:

 Section 44809(c)(1), Operations at Fixed Sites
 Section 44809(c)(2)(a), Standards and Limitations--UA Weighing 
More Than 55 Pounds
 Section 44809(c)(2)(b), Operations at Fixed Sites--UA Weighing 
More Than 55 Pounds
 Section 44809(g)(1), Aeronautical Knowledge and Safety Test
 Section 44809(i), Recognition of Community-Based Organizations

    Respondents: The FAA estimates that there will be approximately 
1,143 respondents per year. Respondents comprise individuals and 
organizations operating under the Exception for Limited Recreational 
Operations of Unmanned Aircraft who wish to be recognized as CBOs, 
administer the aeronautical knowledge and safety test, establish fixed 
flying sites, have standards and limitations for unmanned aircraft 
weighing more than 55 pounds approved, and establish designated FRIAs.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: Varies depending on the type 
of stakeholder application. Fixed flying site applications (including 
more than 55 pound UAS and FRIA) are estimated to take 0.5 hours per 
applicant. CBO recognition and more than 55 pound UAS standards and 
limitations applications are estimated to take 1.0 hours per applicant.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 1,218 hours.
