Office of Airports (ARP) System of Airports Reporting (SOAR)

The Office of Airports (ARP), within the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), helps ensure a safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible national airport system that meets the needs of the traveling public, the Nation, and the world. ARP’s mission is to be a world leader in creating a safe and efficient system of airports. ARP does this through the administration of airport financial assistance programs, airport planning and environmental guidance and oversight, airport engineering, design and construction standards, airport safety and operations rulemaking, and airport compliance programs. Information solicited by the System of Airports Reporting (SOAR) is collected under the authority of 49 United States Code (U.S.C.) Chapter 471, 49 U.S.C. 322, 49 U.S.C. 40117, Public Law 115-254 FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018 and 2 Code of Federal Regulation (C.F.R.) 200.305. In accordance with E-Government Act of 2002, the FAA developed this Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) because SOAR collects Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from members of the public (airport owners/operators, sponsors/public agencies, air carriers, and their authorized consultants). SOAR also collects information on Department of Transportation (DOT)/FAA employees/contractors. 

DOT is committed to ensuring that information is available in appropriate alternative formats to meet the requirements of persons who have a disability. If you require an alternative version of files provided on this page, please contact Privacy@dot.gov.
