[Public Notice 7847]

Jkt 226001

PO 00000

Frm 00074

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

The FAA
Modernization and Reform Act, which
was signed into law on February 14,
2012, requires U.S. carriers that operate
scheduled passenger service or public
charter service using any aircraft with a
design capacity of 30 or more seats, and
operators of large hub, medium hub,
small hub, or non-hub U.S. airports to
submit contingency plans for lengthy
tarmac delays to the Secretary of
Transportation for review and approval
no later than May 14, 2012. The Act also
requires each covered carrier and airport
to ensure public access to its plan after
DOT approval by posting the plan on its
Web site. The Department notes that
these information collection
requirements are specifically required
by statute and are not being imposed as
an exercise of the Department’s
discretion. The Department seeks OMB
approval for the submission and posting
of these plans under the PRA emergency
clearance process because use of the
normal clearance procedures is
reasonably likely to cause the May 14
statutory deadline for submission of
plans to be missed. The Department has
established a Web address for the filing
of contingency plans to enable covered
U.S. airlines and airports to easily
submit their required plans through the
World Wide Web. Once OMB approves
this information collection, the
Department intends to issue a notice
that provides information on how
covered U.S. carriers and airports can
submit the required plans to the
Department through the World Wide
Web.
A Federal agency generally cannot
conduct or sponsor a collection of
information, and the public is generally
not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
This notice addresses two new
information collection requirements
concerning tarmac delays as a result of
the FAA Modernization and Reform
Act. For each of these information
collections, the title, a description of the
respondents, and an estimate of the
annual recordkeeping and periodic
reporting burden are set forth below:
1. Requirement to submit tarmac
delay plan to DOT for review and
approval.
