Download as PDF asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES 50484 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 209 / Tuesday, October 31, 2017 / Notices could inhibit the office’s ability to effectively investigate both individual complaints against airlines and other air travel-related companies. It would also impact the Department’s Enforcement Office’s ability to become aware of patterns and practices that may develop in violation of our rules. The information collection continues to further the objectives of 49 U.S.C. 41712, 40101, 40127, 41702, and 41705 to protect consumers from unfair or deceptive practices, to protect the civil rights of air travelers, and to ensure safe and adequate service in air transportation. Filing a complaint using a web-based form is voluntary and minimizes the burden on respondents. Based on CY16 information, 17,162 of the 17,909 cases received by ACPD were filed using the web-based form (95.8%). At times, consumers may also choose to file a complaint with the Department using regular mail or by phone message. The type of information requested on the form includes complainant’s name, address, phone number (including area code), email address, and name of the airline or company about which she/he is complaining, as well as the flight date and flight itinerary (where applicable) of a complainant’s trip. A consumer may also use the form to give a description of a specific air-travel related problem or to ask for air-travel related information from the ACPD. The Department has limited its informational request to that necessary to meet its program and administrative monitoring and enforcement activities. Respondents: Consumers that Choose to File an On-Line Complaint with the Aviation Consumer Protection Division. Estimated Number of Respondents: 17,162 (based on CY 2016 data). Estimated Total Burden on Respondents: 4,290.5 hours, (257,430 minutes). The estimate was calculated by multiplying the number of cases filed using the on-line form in CY16 (17,162) by the time needed to fill out the on-line form (15 minutes). The information collection is available for inspection in regulations.gov, as noted in the ADDRESSES section of his document. 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:37 Oct 30, 2017 Jkt 244001 burden of the collection of information on respondents. All responses to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record on the docket. Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1:48. Issued in Washington, DC on October 25, 2017.
