    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking public comments on its plan to request approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to renew an information collection related to rotorcraft external-load operator certification. This process includes submitting FAA Form 8710-4, which gathers necessary information to determine applicants' eligibility. The form collects data like the operator's name, contact information, and details about the rotorcraft. The agency invites feedback on the necessity, accuracy, and potential improvements of this information collection by April 27, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    Louisiana Southern Railroad, L.L.C. (LAS), a small rail company, has filed a notice to continue leasing and operating about 165.8 miles of rail lines from the Kansas City Southern Railway Company (KCS). The lease agreements have been in place since 2005 and were recently amended to extend until November 2034. LAS must meet certain conditions, such as informing employees and unions about the transaction, because their annual revenues exceed $5 million. However, LAS has requested a waiver for the 60-day advance notice requirement, which will be decided separately. The document mentions the possibility of legal challenges but notes that LA's operations are exempt from environmental and historic preservation reporting.

    Simple Explanation

    The Louisiana Southern Railroad wants to keep using a train track they’ve used since 2005, which belongs to another company, until 2034, but they need special permission to skip telling workers about it a little earlier. There are no big checks needed for nature or history rules, but it's not clear why.
