Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Adjustments were due to the changes in wage rates and reduction in expected responses. Since the previous collection, hourly wage rates have increased while average fringe benefits have decreased. This led to a $4.33 increase in the hourly rate for respondents. Additionally, this led to a $9.77 increase in the hourly rate for federal government employees. An adjustment was also due to the reduction in expected responses. The FAA received fewer responses on average annually than the previous renewal projected. Due to these responses only being required on occasion to obtain a benefit, the FAA can only estimate what we expect to receive. Lastly, FAA has included five additional forms that were not specifically identified in the last collection even though the burden was included in the previous calculations. Furthermore, all forms that are included within this paperwork reduction act renewal are being submitted in draft form. FAA is working though rulemaking and the 2024 reauthorization bill which may require minor changes to the forms. We have no expectation any changes to the forms will result in a change to the expected burden.
