NFDC Web Portal forms are used to
collect aeronautical information, detailing the physical
description and operational status of all components of the
National Airspace System (NAS). The information is distributed via
the National Flight Data Digest (NFDD), a daily publication
available at no charge to the general public, government, military,
and private producers of aeronautical publications.
(https://nfdc.faa.gov/nfdcApps/services/publicData/nfdd.jsp). The
information is used to update government, military, and private
aeronautical database, charts, publications, and flight management
systems. This includes all Airport Metadata, NAVAID, ATC
Communication for Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCCs),
Terminal Radar Approach Control Facilities (TRACON) and Flight
Service Station (FSS) Facilities. Reporting of this information in
mandatory, i.e. airport operators are required to submit any
changes to their facilities that might appear on aeronautical
charts or publications (e.g. runway extensions or lighting
changes). This is considered to be reporting of information vs.
recordkeeping or disclosure. Information is collected on a
continual basis.

We are no longer accepting FAA
Form 7900-5 Weather (WX) System Data Form, and FAA Form 7900-6
Instrument Landing System (ILS) Data Form because we never have
received any input from the public using these forms. We are no
longer accepting the Special Activity Area forms.(Note: This form
currently does not have an approved form number as the form was
referred to as 7900-XX in the previous request for approval for
this collection and was never developed once the collection was
approved.) Thus we never have received any input from the public
using this form. In previous collections the burden from two
screens:1.) Aeronautical Data Changes (ADC) and 2.) Aeronautical
Chart Changes (ACC) were combined and represented as NFDC -
Public-Use Civil Airports burden. In this revision the burden
resulting from the use of the ADC screen is listed a separately,
while the burden resulting from the use of the ACC screen is listed
as a separate value. There are separate screenshots for each of
these values.
