Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 83 / Monday, May 1, 2006 / Notices
obligation under the Federal Election
Campaign Act of 1971 (the Act). The
Act’s legislative history indicates that
one of its statutory goals is to prevent
candidates for Federal political office
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.
The Confidential Information
Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act
of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3501 note), requires
a statistical agency to clearly identify
information it collects for non-statistical
purposes. BTS hereby notifies the
respondents and the public that BTS
uses the information it collects under
this OMB approval for non-statistical
purposes including, but not limited to,
publication of both Respondent’s
identity and its data, submission of the
information to agencies outside BTS for
review, analysis and possible use in
regulatory and other administrative
matters.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to the
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, 715–17th Street, NW.,
Washington, DC 20503, Attention RITA
Desk Officer.
Comments are invited on whether the
proposed retention of records is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Department of

Information Collection Request,
abstracted below, is being forwarded to
the Office of Management and Budget
for extension of currently approved
record retention requirements. Earlier, a
Federal Register Notice with a 60-day
comment period was published on
February 3, 2006 (71 FR 5903). The
agency did not receive any comments to
its previous notice.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by May 31, 2006.

Comments: Comments should be sent
to OMB at the address that appears
below and should identify the
associated OMB Approval Number
2138–0006 and Docket RITA–2005–
23342.
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 legers, 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
PO 00000
Frm 00086
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

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.
