DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

[Docket No. FAA–2019–0945]

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Requests for Comments;
Clearance of a Renewed Approval of
Information Collection: Bird/Other
Wildlife Strike Report
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT
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 Federal Register Notice
with a 60-day comment period soliciting
comments on the following collection of
information was published on
November 25, 2019. The collection
involves voluntary reporting of bird/
other wildlife strike information
following a wildlife strike incident with
aircraft. This data becomes part of the
publicly available National Wildlife
Strike Database. Strike reports provide
critical information that allows the FAA
to determine high-risk species, track
national trends, evaluate the FAA’s
wildlife hazard management program,
and provide scientific foundation for
regulatory guidance. Additionally, this
essential information allows engine and
airframe manufacturers to evaluate the
effectiveness of aircraft components. It
also helps airports identify and mitigate
hazardous species and the location of
wildlife attractants, affords a better
understanding of strike dynamics, and
provides key metrics for an airport to
evaluate the effectiveness of its wildlife
management program.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by March 23, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget. Comments should be addressed
to the attention of the Desk Officer,
Department of Transportation/FAA, and
sent via electronic mail to oira_
[email protected], or faxed to
(202) 395–6974, or mailed to the Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget,
Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th
Street NW, Washington, DC 20503.

Weller by email at: [email protected];

having knowledge of a strike report
incidents to the FAA, primarily using
the web version of FAA Form 5200–7.
The data becomes part of the publicly
available National Wildlife Strike
Database used to enhance safety by
airports, airlines, engine and airframe
manufacturers, and the FAA. Overall,
the number of strikes annually reported
to the FAA has increased from 1,850 in
1990 to more than 16,000 in 2018.
