Comments: Comments should identify
the associated OMB approval #2138–

wishing the Department to acknowledge
receipt of their comments must submit
with those comments a self-addressed
stamped postcard on which the
following statement is made: Comments
on OMB #2138–0006, Docket 23342.
The postcard will be date/time stamped
and returned.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Approval No.: 2138–0006.
Title: Preservation of Air Carrier
Records—14 CFR Part 249.
Form No.: None.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved recordkeeping
requirement.
Respondents: Certificated air carriers
and charter operators.
Number of Respondents: 120
certificated air carriers, 300 charter
operators.
Estimated Time per Response: 3 hours
per certificated air carrier, 1 hour per
charter operator.
Total Annual Burden: 660 hours.
Needs and Uses: Part 249 requires the
retention of records such as: general and
subsidiary ledgers, journals and journal
vouchers, voucher distribution registers,
accounts receivable and payable
journals and ledgers, subsidy records
documenting underlying financial and
statistical reports to DOT, funds reports,
consumer records, sales reports,
auditors’ and flight coupons, air
waybills, etc. Depending on the nature
of the document, the carrier may be
required to retain the document for a
period of 30 days to 3 years. Public
charter operators and overseas military
personnel charter operators must retain
documents which evidence or reflect
deposits made by each charter
participant and commissions received
by, paid to, or deducted by travel agents,
and all statements, invoices, bills and
receipts from suppliers or furnishers of
goods and services in connection with
the tour or charter. These records are
retained for 6 months after completion
of the charter program.
Not only is it imperative that carriers
and charter operators retain source
documentation, but it is critical that we
ensure that DOT has access to these

records. Given DOT’s established
information needs for such reports, the
underlying support documentation must
be retained for a reasonable period of
time. Absent the retention requirements,
the support for such reports may or may
not exist for audit/validation purposes
and the relevance and usefulness of the
carrier submissions would be impaired,
since the data could not be verified to
the source on a test basis.
for a final rule. Until such time as we
issue a final rule, the existing system for
the collection of this data will remain in
place to ensure compliance with
statutory obligations. Therefore, we are
seeking an extension of the rule in its
present format. When the rulemaking
becomes final the Department will seek
Office of Management and Budget
approval of the new reporting
requirements.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
Public Law 104–13, the Bureau of
Transportation Statistics invites the
general public, industry and other
governmental parties to comment on the
continuing need for and usefulness of
BTS collecting a sample of airline
passenger itineraries with the dollar
value of the passenger ticket.
Certificated air carriers that operated
scheduled passenger service with at
least one aircraft having a seating
capacity of over 60 seats report these
data. Comments are requested
concerning whether: (a) The collection
is still needed by the Department of
Transportation; (b) BTS accurately
estimated the reporting burden; (c) there
are other ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information
collected; and (d) there are ways to
minimize reporting burden, including
the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Presently, the Department has a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (70 FR
8140, February 17, 2005) to restructure
the Passenger Origin-Destination Survey
Report. We are currently reviewing
diverse comments on the NPRM which

Needs and Uses: The Department uses
this form as the means to fulfill its
obligation under the Federal Election
Campaign Act of 1971 (the Act). The

from incurring large amounts of
unsecured debt with regulated
transportation companies (e.g. airlines).
This information collection allows the
Department to monitor and disclose the
amount of unsecured credit extended by
airlines to candidates for Federal office.
All certificated air carriers are required
to submit this information.

may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the transaction.
1 BNSF is reserving the right to use this track for
