Abstract:
Part 298 of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Exemptions for Air Taxi Registration, establishes a classification of air carriers known as air taxi operators that offer on demand passenger service. The regulation exempts these small operators from certain provisions of the Federal statue to permit them to obtain economic authority by filing a one-page, front and back, OST Form 4507, Air Taxi Operator Registration, and Amendments under Part 298 of DOT's Regulations. DOT expects to receive 200 new air taxi registrations and 2,200 amended air taxi registrations each year, resulting in 2,400 total respondents. Further, DOT expects filers of new registrations to take 1 hour to complete the form, while it should only take 30 minutes to prepare amendments to the form. Thus, the total annual burden is expected to be 1,300 hours. The information captured in OST Form 4507 is currently collected under OMB Control No. 2120-0633. The responsibility for this collection of information has been transferred from the FAA to OST; therefore, OST is requesting that OMB assign a new control number to this information collection.
Emergency Justfication:
In December 2011, FAA requested that the information collection associated with OMB control number 2120-0633 be discontinued because responsibility for the collection was being transferred from FAA to DOT's Office of the Secretary (OST). However, at that time, a new OMB control number was not requested to be assigned to OST for the information collection. Therefore, OST is requesting an emergency authorization for the new collection.
