AGENCY:
Office of the Secretary (OST),

ACTION:
Correction notice.
SUMMARY: This notice requests public

of the information and the expected
burden. OST published a Federal
Register notice soliciting comments on
the following collection of information
and received none. The purpose of this
notice is to allow the public an
additional 30 days from the date of this
notice to submit comments and to make
a correction to the recently published
application to renew ICR 2105–0551,
‘‘Reporting Requirements for DisabilityRelated Complaints.’’
DATES: Comments on this notice must be
received by July 9, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
application to renew this information
collection request, which was published
in the Federal Register on Thursday,
March 1, 2007 (72 FR 9385), describes
only one of the three information
collection requirements imposed on the
airlines by a July 8, 2003 final rule.
More specifically, it addressed the
requirement for each covered carrier to
submit an annual report summarizing
the disability-related complaint data but
did not address the requirement for
such carriers to record and categorize
disability-related complaints that they
receive according to type of disability
and nature of complaint on a standard
form nor the requirement for carriers to
retain correspondence and record of
action taken for all disability-related
complaints. This notice provides
detailed information about the two
information collection requirements
which were inadvertently not included
in the March 2007 notice announcing
the Department’s intention to renew
approval of the ICR on the ‘‘Reporting
Requirements for Disability-Related
Complaints’’ and corrects some of the
information provided about the other
information collection requirement (i.e.,
requirement to submit an annual report
summarizing the disability-related
complaint data). It also explains that the
Department believes that the total
burden hours for the three information
collection requirements would be 3418
hours instead of 8753 hours as
estimated in 2003.
The title, description, respondent
description of the information
collections and the annual
recordkeeping and periodic reporting
burden are provided below. It is worth
noting that, while the formulas upon
E:\FR\FM\07JNN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 109 / Thursday, June 7, 2007 / Notices
which the information collection
calculations are based have not
changed, the information collection
burden hours have changed based on
new information available to the
Department. As stated above, the
estimated total burden hours has been
reduced from 8753 to 3418.
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
ICR 2105–0551, ‘‘Reporting
Requirements for Disability-Related
Complaints’’
(1) Requirement to read, record and
categorize each disability related
complaint from a passenger or on behalf
of a passenger.
Respondents: Certificated U.S. air
carriers and foreign air carriers
operating to and from the United States
that conduct passenger-carrying service
with large aircraft.
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 0 minutes to 875 hours a
year for each respondent (time to record
and categorize one complaint [15
minutes] multiplied by the number of
complaints respondents receive [0
complaint a year to 3,500 annual
complaints a year]. The number of
complaints received by carriers varies
greatly. In 2003, we estimated that
carriers would receive anywhere from 1
complaint a year to 4,000 annual
complaints a year. Based on data
provided by carriers in 2004, 2005, and
2006, we believe that a range of 0 to
3500 annual complaints a year is more
accurate.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 3238
hours for all respondents (time to record
and categorize one complaint [15
minutes] multiplied by the total number
of complaints for all respondents
[12,952]). In 2003, we estimated that the
total number of complaints for all
respondents would be 33,050. Based on
a review of the data provided by
carriers, it appears that our 2003
estimate was too high. Carriers received
a total of 11,508 complaints in 2004, a
total of 13,584 complaints in 2005, and
a total of 13,764 complaints in 2006 for
an average of 12,952 annual complaints.
Frequency: 0 to 3,000 complaints per
year for each respondent (Some carriers
may not receive any complaint in a
given year while some of the larger
operators could receive 3,000 annual
complaints).
(2) Requirement to submit a report to
DOT summarizing the disability-related
complaint data (key-punching webbased matrix report).
Respondents: Certificated U.S. air
carriers and foreign air carriers
operating to and from the United States
that conduct passenger-carrying service
with large aircraft.

Jkt 211001
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 30 minutes a year for each
respondent to type in the 169 items
(matrix consists of 13 disabilities and 13
service problems).
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 80
hours for all respondents (annual
burden [30 minutes] multiplied by the
total number respondents [160]). In
2003, we estimated the total number of
respondents to be anywhere from 295 to
370. However, based on the number of
carriers that reported data in 2004, 2005
and 2006 as well as the carriers that did
not but should have submitted such
data, we now believe that the total
number of respondents is approximately
160.
Frequency: 1 report to DOT per year
for each respondent.
Estimated Number of Responses: 160
(frequency of report [1 per year]
multiplied by the total number of
respondents [160].
(3) Requirement to retain
correspondence and record of action
taken on all disability-related
complaints for three years.
Respondents: Foreign air carriers
operating to and from the United States
that conduct passenger carrying service
with large aircraft.
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 1 hour a year for each
respondent.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 100
hours for all respondents (annual
burden [1 hour] multiplied by the total
number respondents [100]. In 2003, we
estimated that the total number of
foreign air carriers that would be
required to submit an annual report to
DOT would be 231 to 306. However, we
have found that not all of the foreign air
carriers that have authority to fly into
the U.S. actually do so. It appears that
the total number of foreign air carriers
that would be covered is approximately
100.
Frequency: 0 to 300 complaints per
year for each respondent. The data
provided by foreign air carriers
operating to and from the United States
that conduct passenger carrying service
with large aircraft demonstrates that that
number of complaints received by such
carriers varies greatly from a low of 0 to
a high of almost 300.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of
the Department’s estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the

burden of the collection of information

As noted earlier, OST published a
Federal Register notice with a 60 day
comment period for this ICR on
Thursday, March 1, 2007 (72 FR 9385).
