was published on June 7, 2018 (83 FR 26538). 49 U.S.C. Section 44702(d)

organizations as representatives of the administrator. As authorized, 
these organizations perform certification functions on behalf of the 
FAA. Applications are submitted to the appropriate FAA office and are 
reviewed by the FAA to determine whether the applicant meets the 
requirements necessary to be authorized as a representative of the 
Administrator. Procedures manuals are submitted and approved by the FAA 
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.
    Respondents: The application form is submitted to the appropriate 
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) office by an interested 
organization.

    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 43.5 hours.
