Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: Since the previous Information Collection Request submission, TSA has been conducting most (70 percent) of this training at airline training centers. This has eliminated the need for individuals to enroll online, as the airlines provide a roster of their employees participating in the course. This also eliminated the need for Injury Waiver forms, as training at airline training centers is on airline property, not federal government property. Individual enrollments and Injury Waiver forms are now done only when training occurs at LE/FAMS field offices. Use of the Feedback tab occurs at the LE/FAMS field offices and not at the airline training centers. As a result, the response to the Feedback tab has reduced significantly as few individuals provide comments. TSA also removed costs that were not directly attributable to the information collection in Item 14.
