This collection is for reporting
aeronautical data by Federal, State, or contract inspectors (for
public-use airports) or airport owners and managers (for
private-use airports). The data is mandatory, public in nature and
the agency's source for the information used in aeronautical and
flight information publications. It is used by various entities of
the civil and military aeronautical communities. Other users of the
data include private industry, aviation associations, state
agencies (state airport directories, aeronautical publications, and
system planning), and other government agencies (National Oceanic
& Atmospheric Administration, National Geospatial-Intelligence
Agency). Airport Master Record (5010) data is collected under the
Airport Data and Information Program on an as needed basis, but the
goal is to obtain a yearly update of all airports on record with
the FAA either through physical inspection, self-reporting by
airport management or mail solicitation. Data from private-use
airports is currently collected every 3 years. The 5010 forms
(5010-1, 5010-2, 5010-3, and 5010-5) identify location, airport
ownership and management, services available, based aircraft,
facilities, operations, runway data, lighting and approach aids,
obstruction data, declared distances, remarks, and inspection data.
If this data were not collected, U.S. government aeronautical and
flight information publications such as sectional aeronautical
charts, Airport/Facility Directories, and other flight information
manuals could not be produced or maintained.

The agency has separated
collection activity into appropriate information collections; there
have not been additional forms added. The burden for this
collection is being adjusted, based on data collected since this
collection was last renewed in 2016. Costs and time for both
respondents and the government have gone up because of changes in
the way costs and time were previously calculated. Previous costs
to respondents did not factor in the labor costs of either State or
contract inspectors or airport owners and managers nor the mailing
costs of private-use airports in response to the mail solicitation.
Previous time burdens did not include the amount of time public-use
airport owners and managers spend confirming data. Further,
previous costs to the Federal government included neither salaries
nor overhead of staff collecting or processing 5010 data. This
renewal also includes the additional cost of the ADIP system, which
will become the primary portal through which all 5010 data is
submitted. This will consolidate the online and paper processes
that currently exist. As airports become more familiar with the
system, we expect the cost of the mail solicitation to go down
considerably as we will be able to send electronic notices directly
from ADIP to participating airports and only use mail solicitation
for those airports that have not chosen to participate in the
electronic process.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
