SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose 

Government contractors that use 

company aircraft must maintain logs of 

flights containing specified information 

(e.g., destination, passenger name, 

purpose of trip, etc.). This information, 

as required by FAR 31.205–46, Travel 

Costs, is used to ensure that costs of 

owned, leased, or chartered aircraft are 

properly charged against Government 

contracts and that directly associated 

costs of unallowable activities are not 

charged to such contracts. 

B. Analysis of Public Comments 

One respondent submitted public 

comments on the extension of the 

previously approved information 

collection. The analysis of the public 

comments is summarized as follows: 

Comment: The respondent 

commented that the extension of the 

information collection would violate the 

fundamental purposes of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act because of the burden it 

puts on the entity submitting the 

information and the agency collecting 

the information. 

Response: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 

agencies can request OMB approval of 

an existing information collection. The 

PRA requires that agencies use the 

Federal Register notice and comment 

process, to extend OMB’s approval, at 

least every three years. This extension, 

to a previously approved information 

collection, pertains to documentation 

requirements under the cost principle at 

FAR 31.205–46. This documentation is 

necessary to ensure that the cost of 

owned, chartered, or leased aircraft are 

properly charged against Government 

contracts and that directly associated 

costs of unallowable activities are not 

charged to Government contracts. 

Documentation regarding (1) date, time, 

and points of departure, (2) destination 

and time of arrival, and (3) name of each 

passenger, is already required under 

Federal Aviation Administration 

regulations. As such, the documentation 

required at FAR 31.205–46 places a 

small burden on Government 

contractors. Not granting this extension 

may result in improper charges against 

Government contracts for flights on 

contractor aircraft. 

Comment: The respondent 

commented that the agency did not 

accurately estimate the public burden 

challenging that the agency’s 

methodology for calculating it is 

insufficient and inadequate and does 

not reflect the total burden. For this 

reason, the respondent provided that the 

agency should reassess the estimated 

total burden hours and revise the 

estimate upwards to be more accurate, 

as was done in FAR Case 2007–006. The 

same respondent also provided that the 

burden of compliance with the 

information collection requirement 

greatly exceeds the agency’s estimate 

and outweighs any potential utility of 

the extension. 

Response: Serious consideration is 

given, during the open comment period, 

to all comments received and 

adjustments are made to the paperwork 

burden estimate based on reasonable 

considerations provided by the public. 

This is evidenced, as the respondent 

notes, in FAR Case 2007–006 where an 

adjustment was made from the total 

preparation hours from three to 60. This 

change was made considering 

particularly the hours that would be 

required for review within the company, 

prior to release to the Government. 

The burden is prepared taking into 

consideration the necessary criteria in 

OMB guidance for estimating the 

paperwork burden put on the entity 

submitting the information. For 

example, consideration is given to an 

entity reviewing instructions; using 

technology to collect, process, and 

disclose information; adjusting existing 

practices to comply with requirements; 

searching data sources; completing and 

reviewing the response; and 

transmitting or disclosing information. 

The estimated burden hours for a 

collection are based on an average 

between the hours that a simple 

disclosure by a very small business 

might require and the much higher 

numbers that might be required for a 

very complex disclosure by a major 

corporation. Also, the estimated burden 

hours should only include projected 

hours for those actions which a 

company would not undertake in the 

normal course of business. Careful 

consideration went into assessing the 

estimated burden hours for this 

collection, and it is determined that an 

upward adjustment is not required at 

this time. The historical estimates 

remain valid. However, at any point, 

members of the public may submit 

comments for further consideration, and 

are encouraged to provide data to 

support their request for an adjustment.
