The information collection and recordkeeping requirements are to ensure that certain cargo tank motor vehicles used to transport liquefied compressed gases are operated safely and to minimize the potential for catastrophic releases during unloading and loading operations.
Minor mathematical errors were discovered during the review of this justification and are being corrected at this time. The annual number of responses was increased by 8, from 920,530 to 920,538. This increase in responses subsequently increased the annual burden hours by 299, from 200,615 to 200,914. In addition, previous IC submittals did not include the annual cost burden per directive of the former OST coordinator. This figure ($2,456,064) is being included in this submittal.
