This information collection mandate reported by those commercial space launch services providers seeking a license or permit, enables FAA/AST to determine the maximum probable loss (MPL) resulting from licensed or permitted launch activities. The information is collected once based on vehicle configuration, launch site, and flight trajectory that are introduced in the license or permit application. The collected information will be used to determine if licensees have complied with financial responsibility requirements for MPL analysis as set forth in FAA regulations (§ 440.7(c)). The FAA is responsible for determining MPL required to covered claims by a third party for bodily injury or property damage, and the United States, its agencies, and its contractors and subcontractors for covered property damage or loss, resulting from a Commercial space transportation permitted or licensed activity. The MPL determination forms the basis for financial responsibility requirements issued in a license or permit order. The licensee or permittee provides the MPL results to an insurance broker to purchase insurance for the license or permit mission. The following is a summary of the key information required to conduct an MPL: 1. Mission description. • Launch trajectory; • Orbital inclination; and • Orbit altitudes (apogee and perigee). 2. Flight sequence. 3. Staging events and the time for each event. 4. Impact locations. 5.
