reporting requirements. However,
carriers should use the service request
information to facilitate appropriate,
timely assistance to their passengers.
Respondents: Certificated U.S. and
foreign air carriers operating to, from,
and within the United States that
operate at least one aircraft having a
seating capacity of more than 60
passengers and own or control a
primary website that markets air
transportation to the general public in
the U.S.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
165 U.S. and foreign carriers, of which
the Department expects all to have
achieved compliance with the
requirement in a prior year. The
Department estimates that each year
there will be 3 new respondent carriers.
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 0 hours per carrier
compliant in a prior year, unless the
carrier voluntarily elects to modify or
improve its form, and 32 hours per
carrier creating an online request form.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 96
hours. This estimate was calculated by
multiplying the total number of labor
hours per year that a carrier is estimated
to spend to develop, implement,
integrate, connect, and test the online
request form (32) by the estimated
number of new respondent carriers each
year (3).
Frequency: One-time requirement.
2. Website Accessibility Disclaimer
Notice
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: Pursuant
to 14 CFR 382.43(e), covered carriers
must provide a disclaimer notice for
each link on their primary website that
enables a user to access software or an
external website that is not in the
carrier’s control. The disclaimer notice
must be activated the first time a user
clicks the link and must notify the user
that the application/website is not
within the carrier’s control and may not
follow the same accessibility policies as
the primary website. The Department
anticipates that each covered U.S. and
foreign carrier will incur costs
associated with identifying all links on
their websites that may require a
disclaimer such as developing and
reviewing the design and language for
the disclaimer notice, as well as
developing, testing, and deploying the
code to the appropriate web pages.
The incremental labor hours
associated with providing the required
disclaimer may vary depending on the
number of links on the website to which
this requirement applies. The FRA
estimated that it will take an average of
6 labor hours per carrier to identify the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
13:59 Jul 23, 2018
Jkt 244001
links and then develop, test, and deploy
the disclaimer notice on the website. We
also estimate that it will take less than
30 minutes per year for a carrier to
associate the notice with any new links
to external websites or third-party
software added to their websites.
There are no recordkeeping or
reporting requirements associated with
this information collection.
Respondents: Certificated U.S. and
foreign air carriers operating to, from,
and within the United States that
operate at least one aircraft having a
seating capacity of more than 60
passengers and own or control a
primary website that markets air
transportation to the general public in
the U.S.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
165 U.S. and foreign carriers, of which
the Department expects all to have
achieved compliance with the
requirement in a prior year. The
Department estimates that each year
there will be 3 new respondent carriers.
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 6 hours for 3 new carrier
respondents to create, test, and deploy
the disclaimer. 30 minutes for 165
carriers compliant in prior years to
associate the notice with new links and
third-party software.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
100.5 hours. This estimate was
calculated by multiplying the total
number of labor hours per year that a
carrier is estimated to spend to develop,
test, and deploy the disclaimer notice
(6) by the estimated number of new
respondent carriers each year (3). To
that total we added the product of the
number of hours that we estimated
carriers may spend associating the
notice with new weblinks (.5 hours) and
the number of carriers that are expected
to have achieved compliance in a prior
year (165).
Frequency: One-time and recurrent
requirements.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the
Department’s performance; (b) the
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c)
ways for the Department to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the
information collection; and (d) ways
that the burden could be minimized
without reducing the quality of the
collected information.

respect to Sec. 110, which provides a
safe harbor whereby it will be assumed
that a construction allowance provided
by a lessor to a lessee is used to
construct or improve lessor property
when long-term property is constructed
or improved and used pursuant to a
short-term lease. The regulations also
provide a reporting requirement that
ensures that both the lessee and lessor
consistently treat the property subject to
the construction allowance as
nonresidential real property owned by
the lessor.

Type of Review: Extension without
change of a currently approved

Abstract: The Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA) requires that

expertise and professional skills that
parallel the program responsibilities of
their sponsoring agencies. In order to
apply to be a member of the Internal
Revenue Service Advisory Council
(IRSAC), the Information Reporting
Program Advisory Committee (IRPAC),
Advisory Committee on Tax Exempt
and Government Entities, or the
Electronic Tax Administration Advisory
Committee (ETAAC), applicants must
submit a Membership Application.
Selection of committee members is
made based on the FACA’s
requirements and the potential
member’s background and
qualifications. Therefore, an application
is needed to ascertain the desired skills
set for membership. The information
will also be used to perform Federal
Income Tax, FBI, and practitioner
checks as required of all members and
applicants to the Committees or
Council. The tax check waiver permits
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to
release information about the applicant,
which would otherwise be confidential.
This information will be used in
connection with my application for
appointment to membership in one of
the IRS Advisory Committee/Council. It
is necessary for the purpose of ensuring
that all panel members are tax
compliant. Information provided will be
used to qualify or disqualify individuals
to serve as panel members. The
information will be used as appropriate
by the Taxpayer Advocate service staff,
and other appropriate IRS personnel.

Committee's), IRS Advisory Council, and Tax Check Waiver.
OMB Control Number: 1545-1791.
Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved

Abstract: The Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) requires that
committee membership be fairly balanced in terms of points of view
represented and the functions to be performed. As a result, members of
specific committees often have both the expertise and professional
skills that parallel the program responsibilities of their sponsoring
agencies. In order to apply to be a member of the Internal Revenue
Service Advisory Council (IRSAC), the Information Reporting Program
Advisory Committee (IRPAC), Advisory Committee on Tax Exempt and
Government Entities, or the Electronic Tax Administration Advisory
Committee (ETAAC), applicants must submit a Membership Application.
Selection of committee members is made based on the FACA's requirements
and the potential member's background and qualifications. Therefore, an
application is needed to ascertain the desired skills set for
membership. The information will also be used to perform Federal Income
Tax, FBI, and practitioner checks as required of all members and
applicants to the Committees or Council. The tax check waiver permits
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to release information about the
applicant, which would otherwise be confidential. This information will
be used in connection with my application for appointment to membership
in one of the IRS Advisory Committee/Council. It is necessary for the
purpose of ensuring that all panel members are tax compliant.
Information provided will be used to qualify or disqualify individuals
to serve as panel members. The information will be used as appropriate
by the Taxpayer Advocate service staff, and other appropriate IRS
personnel. Form 8453-FE is used to authenticate the electronic Form
1041, U.S. Income Tax Return for Estates and Trusts, authorize the
electronic filer to transmit via a third-party transmitter, and
authorize an electronic fund withdrawal for payment of federal taxes
owed. Form 8879-EMP is used if a taxpayer and the electronic return
originator (ERO) want to use a personal identification number (PIN) to
electronically sign an electronic employment tax return. Form 8879-F is
used by an electronic return originator when the fiduciary wants to use
a personal identification number to electronically sign an estate's or
trust's electronic income tax return, and if applicable consent to
electronic funds withdrawal.
