ED Decision 2022/021/R
REPORTING TO THE COMPETENT AUTHORITY
Within the overall limit of 72 hours, the degree of urgency for submitting a report should be determined by the level of risk that is judged to have resulted from the occurrence.
If an occurrence is judged by the organisation that identified the possible unsafe condition to have resulted in an immediate and particularly significant hazard, EASA (or the competent authority of the Member State, as required) should be advised immediately and by the fastest possible means (telephone, fax, email, telex, etc.) of whatever details are available at that time. This initial report must be followed up with a full written report within 72 hours. An example would be an uncontained engine failure that results in damage to the aircraft primary structure.
In all other cases, the submission of the report may be delayed up to a maximum of 72 hours after determining the possible unsafe condition, in order to provide more details.
