Title: Public Charters, 14 CFR part
380.
Form Numbers: 4532, 4533, 4534,
4535.
Type of Review: Extension of a
Previously Approved Collection.
Respondents: Private Sector: Air
carriers; tour operators; the general
public (including groups and
individuals, corporations and
Universities or Colleges, etc.).
Number of Respondents: 245.
Number of Responses: 1,782.
Total Annual Burden: 891.
Abstract: 14 CFR part 380 establishes
regulations embodying the Department’s
terms and conditions for Public Charter
operators to conduct air transportation
using direct air carriers. Public Charter
operators arrange transportation for
groups of people on chartered aircraft.
This arrangement is often less expensive
for the travelers than individually
buying a ticket. Part 380 exempts
charter operators from certain
provisions of the U.S. code in order that
they may provide this service. A
primary goal of Part 380 is to seek
protection for the consumer.
Accordingly, the rule stipulates that the
charter operator must file evidence (a
prospectus—consisting of OST Forms
4532, 4533, 4534 and 4535) with the
Department for each charter program
certifying that it has entered into a
binding contract with a direct air carrier

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

to provide air transportation and that it
has also entered into agreements with
Department-approved financial
institutions for the protection of charter
participants’ funds. The prospectus
must be approved by the Department
prior to the operator’s advertising,
selling or operating the charter. If the
prospectus information were not
collected it would be extremely difficult
to assure compliance with agency rules
and to assure that public security and
other consumer protection requirements
were in place for the traveling public.
The information collected is available
for public inspection (unless the
respondent specifically requests
confidential treatment). Part 380 does
not provide any assurances of
confidentiality.
Burden Statement: Completion of all
forms in a prospectus can be
accomplished in approximately two
hours (30 minutes per form) for new
filers and one hour for amendments
(existing filings). The forms are
simplified and request only basic
information about the proposed
programs and the private sector filer.
The respondent can submit a filing to
operate for up to one year and include
as many flights as desired, in most
cases. The operator is then required by
regulations to file revisions to its
original prospectus.
Number of Respondents: 245.
Number of Responses: 1,782.
Frequency of Responses:
245 (respondents) × 4 = 980.
401 (amendments from the same
respondents) × 2 = 802.
Total estimated responses: 980 + 802 =
1,782.
The frequency of response is
dependant upon whether the operator is
requesting a new program or amending
an existing prospectus. Variations occur
due to the respondents’ criteria. On
average four responses (forms 4532,
4533, 4534 and/or 4535) are required for
filing new prospectuses and two of the
responses (forms) are required for
amendments. The separate hour burden
estimate is as follows:
Total Annual Burden: 891.
Approximately 1,782 (responses) × 0.50
(per form) = 891.
Comments Are Invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed 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 collection; and (d)

ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, by the use of electronic
means, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. All responses
to the notice will be summarized and
included in the request for OMB
approval. All comments will also
become a matter of public record.
