Abstract: This information collection is required to receive a benefit and is reported to the FAA on occasion. Persons requesting to obtain an initial air agency certificate to operate as a repair station or changes to an existing repair station (air agency) certificate do so by voluntarily submitting the request in a format acceptable to the FAA. In order to remain consistent and provide ease of application, the FAA designed and made available to the public the FAA Form 8310-3 Application for Repair Station Certificate and/or Rating. The FAA finds this form as an acceptable means of making application to become a certificated repair station, and also to inform the FAA of changes to the existing repair station certificate. The form is made available to the applicant/respondent for obtaining initial repair station certification or any changes to the operating certificated repair station, such as changes to the ratings. Once the FAA reviews the submitted application and finds by inspection that the applicant has the ability to comply with the 14 CFR part 145 requirements for certification, an air agency certificate and ratings is issued as requested by the applicant. The FAA retains a copy of the application in the FAA office that issued the certificate for an indefinite time or a time-period specified by mandated file retention laws. The applicant is not required to retain a copy of the form. The FAA does not provide other persons or entities with information contained in the form.

Short Statement: In the past renewal of 2015, the FAA had implemented a regulatory requirement for the repair stations to submit their training program for FAA approval. Since that time frame, this form is now utilized for repair station certification and or rating and we are no longer requiring the reporting of training. These labor costs and time to fill out have changed and are reflected in question number 12 based on the lessening of burden placed.
