SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 4, 2012, the final rule, 
``Flightcrew Member Duty and Rest Requirements'' was published in the 
Federal Register (77 FR 330). In that rule, the FAA amended the FAA's 
existing flight, duty and rest regulations applicable to certain 
certificate holders and their flightcrew members operating under the 
domestic, flag, and supplemental operations rules.
    The paperwork burden is comprised of five areas: fatigue risk 
management system, Sec.  117.7; fatigue training, Sec.  117.9; flight 
time limitation, Sec.  117.11; flight duty period extension reporting, 
Sec.  117.19; and emergency and government sponsored operations, Sec.  
117.29. The information collection requirements had not been approved 
by OMB at the time of publication.
    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, the FAA submitted a 
copy of the new information collection requirements to OMB for its 
review. OMB approved the collection on May 4, 2012, and assigned the 
information collection OMB Control Number 2120-0751, which expires on 
May 31, 2015.
    This document is being published to inform affected parties of the 
approval, and to announce that as of January 4, 2014, affected parties 
are required to comply with the new information collection requirements 
in Sec. Sec.  117.7, 117.9, 117.11, 117.19, and 117.29.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on June 21, 2012.
