Builders must notify FAA before/after tall work
If you propose construction or alteration that may affect navigable airspace, federal law (49 U.S.C. 44718) and FAA rules (14 CFR 77) require you to file FAA Form 7460-1 before the project and FAA Form 7460-2 to report actual construction progress. The agency estimates about 85,000 respondents will file these occasional notices, with an average burden of about 15 minutes per response and a total annual burden of 55,058 hours; the FAA is accepting public comments on renewing this collection through March 23, 2026 (OMB Control Number 2120-0001).
