Abstract:
The FAA sometimes includes a request for voluntary reporting of information (e.g., inspection results, etc.) in SAIBs. The inspection results may help the FAA in an ongoing investigation to determine the cause of a specific condition, or whether the condition is likely to exist or develop on other products of the same type design. We may also require reports if a potential unsafe condition is a result of manufacturing quality control problems. We need these reports to determine the scope of the problem and how adequate the design approval holder’s corrective actions are. As such, each reporting situation is unique. To date, our only means for obtaining reporting information is from design approval holders through 14 CFR § 21.3. We have no other authorized method for notification and collection of information from owner/operators to help in our assessment of a potential unsafe condition. If the FAA is unable to obtain this information, we may need to conduct a directed safety investigation. This is a burden on both the FAA and the owner/operator.

Short Statement:
From the previous submission, we have revised our number of SAIBs per year to reflect the actual average of SAIBs between the years 2018 – 2020. We have also revised our number of SAIBs that include reporting requests to reflect up to date numbers from recent years. Our annualized cost to the respondent and annualized cost to the Federal government have been updated with 2020 data available from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. An increase cost of burden for the Federal government occurred because labor costs have gone up since the previous renewal.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$181,476
