Number 1652-0006, Employment Standards. TSA will report back to OMB

This information collection permits
TSA to conduct a more effective oversight, planning, and regulatory
function related to the affected parties, i.e., airport operators.
The airport operators are charged under 49 CFR part 1542 with
providing a safe and secure operating environment in which
commercial passenger and other operations are conducted.
TSA is requesting a
modification of OMB Control Number 1652-0002 in order to simplify
TSA collections and to reduce duplication. TSA is including in this
collection the recordkeeping requirements under OMB Control Number
1652-0006 Employment Standards, which apply to 49 CFR Part 1542.
Upon OMB approval of this revision, TSA intends to discontinue OMB
Control Number 1652-0006 Employment Standards. TSA has revised the
following assumptions relating to the cost burden estimates in Item
14: a decrease in the number of airports regulated under 49 CFR
Part 1542 due to a decision made by the airport operator to no
longer participate as a regulated entity; an increase in the wage
rate of TSA inspectors, and an increase in the hour burden per
inspection
