FAA INVITES COMMENTS ON PRA ESTIMATE TO ENGAGE WITH FOREIGN ENTITIES
September 8, 2023
On August 18, 2023, the FAA published a Notice and Request for Comment (“Notice”) in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (“PRA”) to permit the Agency to engage with foreign counterparts to “bolster international collaboration and to harmonize international aviation safety requirements.” The Notice is published in response to the requirement codified in 49 U.S.C. 40104, that the FAA engage with international stakeholders to promote and achieve global improvements in air safety. The Notice advises affected parties that the FAA may reach out to foreign entities, both governmental and private parties, to facilitate the statutory requirements. Under the Notice, the FAA expects Agency foreign affairs specialists to engage in twenty instances of international outreach each year. Comments in response to the FAA’s estimated outreach efforts, and the corresponding burden on affected parties, are due by September 17, 2023.
