SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Title: Application for Employment with the Federal Aviation 
Administration, FAA Form 3330.76.
    Abstract: The collection of information is an application for 
employment with the Federal Aviation Administration. Applicants will 
have to complete a number of background questions to determine their 
basic eligibility for Federal Employment and also answer specific 
occupation-related questions to determine their qualification. In 
keeping with the reengineered business processes under the National 
Performance Review, the FAA is attempting to centralize and automate 
some of our application, evaluation, and hiring processes. This 
application is a part of that effort. We are seeking to amend our OMB 
clearance to revise the form and incorporate it into a complete Federal 
Aviation employment system, utilizing a single system of collecting 
information. We propose to utilize the information to make 
determinations on applicants' eligibility for Federal employment, 
determining their qualifications for employment, and certifying the 
names of qualified applicants to line managers who will make hiring 
decisions.
    Authority: Public Law 104-50 authorized the Federal Aviation 
Administration to establish its own personnel system outside most of 
the requirements of Title 5, U.S.C. The only provisions related to 
hiring that will continue to apply are those dealing with veterans' 
preferences.
    Respondents: The likely respondents will be the general public who 
are interested in employment with the FAA. We estimate that the average 
number of respondents on an annual basis will be approximately 75,000 
people. Submission of this information is completely voluntary on the 
part of the applicant.
    Frequency: The frequency is based on the respondent, however, we 
estimate one time per respondent on an annual basis.
    Burden: The estimated reporting burden is 112,500 hours annually. 
This is based on an estimated average time to complete of 1.5 hours, 
although the range could be as little as .5 hours to 3 hours per 
response.
