To help pay for aviation security
costs TSA Imposed the September 11th Security Fee on passengers of
air carriers and foreign air carriers. Air carriers collect from
each revenue passenger $2.50 per domestic enplanements or departing
international enplanement, subject to a limit of $5 per one-way
trip and $10 per round trip. Each of these carriers is then
required to: (1) establish and maintain an accounting system to
account for the September 11th Security Fee that are impossed,
collected, refunded,and remitted; (2) reportthis information to TSA
on a quarerly basis; and (3) retain the date used for these reports
for a six-year rolling....
There were no actual changes or
adjustments in total burden hours or cost. There has been an
adjustment made to hours and cost associated with each information
collection instrument. There has been a decrease of 105 Annual IC
responses and 2100 Annual Burden Hours from the Air Carrier
Reporting Information Collection Instrument. There has been an
increase of 105 Annual IC responses and 2100 Annual Burden hours
for the Air Carriers Audit. The reason for this adjustment is to
assure that each IC is respectfully accounting for its share of
burden placed on the public.
