Abstract:
This information collection relates to regulations issued by TSA for flight schools. The collection, under 49 CFR part 1552, subpart A, relates to the security threat assessments (STAs) that TSA requires to determine whether candidates are a threat to aviation or national security, and thus prohibited from receiving flight training. This collection of information requires Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-certificated flight training providers to provide TSA with the information necessary to conduct the STAs. The collection, under 49 CFR part 1552, subpart B, relates to security awareness training for flight school employees and contract employees, which includes maintaining records of all such training.

Short Statement:
TSA adjusted the total annual cost burden in Item 12 to account for the recordkeeping burden associated with security awareness training for covered employees. While this recordkeeping requirement has been in the program, it was not included in the previous estimate of the public hour cost burden. In addition, TSA updated the burden cost in Item 13 to reflect not only the providers recordkeeping costs but also the candidate’s STA fees.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$1,116,082
