implementing 33 U.S.C. 2712(d)(1) of
the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90).
The information provided by the State
to the NPFC is used to determine
whether expenditures submitted by the
state to the OSLTF are compensable,
and, where compensable, to ensure the
correct amount of reimbursement is
made by the OSLTF to the state. If the
information is not collected, the Coast
Guard and the National Pollution Funds
Center will be unable to justify the
resulting expenditures, and thus be
unable to recover costs from the parties
responsible for the spill when they can
be identified.
Forms: None.
Respondents: Governor of a state or
their designated representative.
Frequency: On occasion.
Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden will remain at 3 hours per year.
Dated: September 14, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation is
available at www.reginfo.gov. Therefore,
in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments
to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652–0021,
Flight Training for Aliens and Other
Designated Individuals; Security
Awareness Training for Flight School
Employees, 49 CFR part 1552. Pursuant
to section 612 of the Vision 100—
Century of Aviation Reauthorization
Act, TSA is required to conduct
background checks for all aliens and
other designated individuals seeking
flight instruction with Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA)-certified flight
training providers. In September 2004,
TSA developed and implemented these
requirements at 49 CFR part 1552,
prescribing standards relating to the

security threat assessment process that
TSA conducts to determine whether
candidates are a threat to aviation or
national security and thus prohibited
from receiving flight training. The
collection of information required under
49 CFR part 1552 permits TSA to gather
candidates’ biographic information and
fingerprints, which are used to perform
the background checks. Additionally,
flight training providers are required to
conduct security awareness training for
their employees to increase awareness
of suspicious circumstances and
activities of individuals enrolling in, or
attending, flight training. The flight
training provider may use the initial
security awareness training program
offered by TSA, or an alternative initial
training program offered by a third
party, or training designed by the flight
training provider itself. Each flight
training provider employee must receive
recurrent security awareness training
each year, and flight training providers
must maintain records of the training
completed throughout the course of the
individual’s employment, and for one
year after the individual is no longer a
flight training provider employee.
Based on the numbers of respondents
to date, TSA estimates a total of 31,000
respondents annually: 26,500
candidates and 4,500 flight training
providers.
Respondents are required to provide
the subject information every time an
alien or other designated individual
applies for pilot training as described in
the regulation, which is estimated to be
twice a year per candidate, for a total of
53,000 responses per year. In response
to comments to the interim final rule,
TSA delineated the types of training
events that would be subject to the
requirements. TSA specified that
candidates applying for flight training in
aircraft weighing 12,500 lbs. or less
would be subject to requirements only
if they are training towards an initial
certificate, an instrument, or multiengine training. See TSA’s clarifying
interpretation document (Document ID:
TSA–2004–19147–0337), dated January
5, 2005, titled ‘‘Flight Schools and
Individuals Subject to 49 CFR part 1552;
RE: Interpretation of ‘Flight Training’ for
Aircraft with an MTOW of 12,500
Pounds or Less and Exemption from
Certain ‘Recurrent Training’ Information
Submission Requirements Contained in
49 CFR part 1552.’’ This document is
available in the docket for the interim
final rule on ‘‘Flight Training for Aliens
and Other Designated Individuals;
Security Awareness Training for Flight
School Employees’’ (Docket ID: TSA–
2004–19147). This clarification reduced
the number of candidates anticipated

from the original estimates made in
November 2004. In addition, 1,500 more
flight training providers have
participated in this program.
TSA estimates that it will take the
26,500 candidates 45 minutes per
application (twice per year) to provide
TSA with all of the information
required, for a total approximate
application burden of 39,750 hours per
year. Flight training providers must
keep records for five years from the time
they are created, and it is estimated each
of the 4,500 flight training providers
will carry an annual record keeping
burden of 104 hours, for a total of
468,000 hours. Thus, TSA estimates the
combined hour burden associated with
this collection to be 507,750 hours
annually.

1652–0030; TSA Customer Comment
Card. This renewal continues a
voluntary program for airport
passengers to provide feedback to TSA
regarding their experiences with TSA
security procedures. This collection of
information allows TSA to evaluate and
address customer concerns about
security procedures and policies.
TSA Customer Comment Cards will
collect feedback, and the passenger may
voluntarily provide contact information.
TSA may use the contact information to
respond to the passenger’s comments.
For passengers who deposit their cards
in the designated drop-boxes, TSA staff
at airports will collect the cards,
categorize comments, enter the results
into an online system for reporting, and
respond to passengers as appropriate.
Passengers also have the option to mail
the cards directly to the address
provided on the comment card which
varies by airport. The TSA Contact
Center will continue to be available for
passengers to make comments
independently of airport involvement.
TSA estimates the number of
respondents to be 1,783,800, with an
estimated number of 150,880 annual
burden hours.
