as a means to ensure that the correct processes are utilized when 
performing functions on behalf of the FAA. These requirements are 
necessary to manage the various approvals issued by the organization 
and to document approvals issued and must be maintained in order to 
address potential future safety issues.

this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the
