The TEA-21 requires the Secretary of
DOT and the Secretary of each appropriate Federal Land management
agency to develop, to the extent appropriate, safety, bridge,
pavement, and congestion management systems for roads funded under
the Federal Lands Highway Program (FLHP). These rulemakings provide
for the development and implementation of the four management
systems for transportation facilities providing access to and
within the National Forests, National Park Service facilities,
National Wildlife Refuge System, Indian Lands, and funded under the
FLHP.
This is a renewal of an
existing information collection. There is not an overall program
change, however, there is a downward adjustment of the burden
estimate from the previous information collection approval based on
the current status of the FLHP management systems. The original
burden estimate was based on full implementation of all FLHP
management systems within the time period of the initial
information collection approval. In practice, the management
systems are being phased in as implementation plans are completed,
systems developed, and data collected and analyzed. During the time
period covered by the proposed information collection renewal,
implementation of the management systems will continue. While
burden may increase as the additional systems come on line, the new
burden estimates reflect an overall average lower burden over the
time period of the renewal than had been previously estimated.
