Needs and Uses: BTS collects 

independent audited financial reports

The audited reports are needed by the 

Department of Transportation as: (1) A 

means to monitor an air carrier’s 

continuing fitness to operate; (2) 

reference material used by analysts in 

examining foreign route cases; (3) 

reference material used by analysts in 

examining proposed mergers, 

acquisitions and consolidations; (4) a 

means whereby BTS sends a copy of the 

report to the International Civil Aviation 

Organization (ICAO) in fulfillment of a 

United States treaty obligation; and, (5) 

corroboration of a carrier’s Form 41 

filings. 

The Confidential Information 

Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act 

of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3501), requires a 

statistical agency to clearly identify 

information it collects for non-statistical 

purposes. BTS hereby notifies the 

respondents and the public that BTS 

uses the information it collects under 

this OMB approval for non-statistical 

purposes including, but not limited to, 

publication of both Respondent’s 

identity and its data, and submission of 

the information to agencies outside BTS

regulatory and other administrative 

matters.

concerning consumer protection. 

Comments should address whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Department’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

information collection; ways to enhance 

the quality, utility and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and ways to 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on respondents, including 

the use of automated collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology.
