[[Page 28268]]
Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it
displays a valid OMB control number. The ICR documentation is available
at http://www.reginfo.gov. Therefore, in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information collection, TSA is soliciting comments to
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed information requirement is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including using appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 16520006; Employment Standards, 49 CFR parts
1542 and 1544. The information collected is used to determine
compliance with 49 CFR parts 1542 and 1544. Airport operators maintain
records of compliance with part 1542 for those employees with access
privileges to Security Identification Display Areas of the airport.
Aircraft operators maintain records of compliance with part 1544 for
selected crew and security employees. TSA Transportation Security
Inspectors (TSIs) review these records to ensure that the safety and
security of the public is not compromised, to include using this
information to take corrective action when necessary. These regulations
establish procedures that airports and airlines must carry out to
protect persons and property against acts of criminal violence,
aircraft piracy, and terrorist activities. The current estimated annual reporting burden is 183,506 hours.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on June 9, 2009.
