Notice and request for comments.
Summary
The Department of Transportation (DOT) invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew and revise an information collection. The DOT is seeking public comment under normal Paperwork Reduction Act procedures to continue the collection entitled "Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection," which was approved under an emergency clearance approval by OMB through November 30, 2021. The purpose of the original information collection was to enable eligible business entities to apply for payroll assistance under the "Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection" program, established by the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. The continued information collection is necessary to ensure that eligible recipients continue to meet eligibility requirements and are compliant with use of funds to provide payroll support for the established eligible employee group. The continued information collection will also seek voluntary demographic information for program evaluation purposes. We are required to publish this notice in the Federal Register by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
