Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Encourages Sharing to Improve Safety

If the FAA protects USAST and ANSIR information, the agency expects more open sharing between the FAA and the aviation industry. You who fly could benefit because the FAA says this sharing supports a proactive, data-driven strategy to reduce the risk of fatal and non-fatal accidents in the National Airspace System.

Confidentiality for Industry Safety Reports

The FAA proposes to designate safety and security information, reports, data, and work products provided to the U.S. Aviation Safety Team (USAST) and Aerospace National Safety Issue Registry (ANSIR) as protected from public disclosure. This protects voluntarily provided information from being released publicly and is intended to encourage industry members to share information with the FAA.
