Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of a Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Application 
for Employment With the Federal Aviation Administration; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice is a Correction to the notice published on May 14, 
2019, due to invalid Docket number, updated comment deadline, as well 
as clarification for Respondents and their Frequency.
    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA invites 
public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) approval to renew an information collection. The 
collection involves an automated application process for employment 
with the Federal Aviation Administration. Applicants access an online 
form that is presented with requests for certain information.
    The information collected is necessary to determine basic 
eligibility for employment and potential eligibility for Veteran's 
Preference, Veteran's Readjustment Act, and People with Disability 
appointments. In addition, there are specific occupation questions that 
assist the FAA Office of Human Resource Management (AHR) in determining 
candidates' qualifications in order that the best-qualified candidates 
are hired for the many FAA occupations.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by August 5, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Please send written comments:
    By Electronic Docket: www.regulations.gov (Enter docket number into

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the 
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d) 
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of 
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include 
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information 
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0597.
    Title: Application for Employment with the Federal Aviation 
Administration.
    Form Numbers: FAA-3330-76.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: Under the provisions of Public Law 104-50, the Federal 
Aviation Administration (FAA) was given the authority and the 
responsibility for developing and implementing its own personnel system 
without regard to most of the provisions of Title 5, United States 
Code, exceptions being those concerning veteran's preference and 
various benefits.
    The OPM developed a suite of forms for use in automated employment 
processes: all under a single OMB approval. The FAA AHR has the same 
OMB approval for its automated application for employment. By 
automating processes for employment application and the evaluation of 
candidates, AHR has markedly improved the service it provides to the 
public as well as its ability to locate and hire the best-qualified 
applicants. Lastly, via this process, applicants are provided on-line 
results immediately upon submitting their application questionnaires.
    The Agency is requesting certain information necessary to determine 
basic eligibility for employment and potential eligibility for 
Veteran's Preference, Veteran's Readjustment Act, and People with 
Disability appointments. In addition, occupation specific questions 
assist AHR in determining candidates' qualifications in order that the 
best-qualified candidates are hired for the many FAA occupations. The 
system currently in use for this collection is the Automated Vacancy 
Information Access Tool for Online Referral (AVIATOR). This system 
cannot be directly accessed. Applicants are transferred to the AVIATOR 
system from OPM's USAJOBS website during the application process.
    Respondents: Over 180,000 US citizens identified as applicants for 
employment with the Federal Aviation Administration.
    Frequency: On occasion/as interested.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 1 hour.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 180,000 hours.
    Approximately 180,000 respondents will complete an application form 
on as needed basis. Based on this sample size, it will take the average 
applicant approximately 1 hour to read the instructions and complete 
the form. The estimated total burden is 180,000 hours annually.
