Abstract: The information for which the agency is requesting to collect will support a taxpayer's claim for eligibility to use the safe harbor method of accounting for rotable spare parts provided in the proposed revenue procedures. The information will be submitted as a supporting schedule for the Form 3115, Application for Change in Accounting Method.

Emergency Justfication: Emergency review is requested because the revenue procedure is effective for taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2006. This revenue procedure was only made ready for release in late February 2007. Taxpayers who need to change their method of accounting for the 2006 calendar year will need to file the Form 3115 with their tax return which is due March 15, 2007.
