Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Estimates for the data respondents increased due to the HPMS program activities pertaining to implementation of the recently completed reassessment effort. The reassessed HPMS incorporates a new geospatial data base model, adds and deletes some data items required for reporting, changes several data item coding structures and thus will require some near term additional effort and resources in implementing it for some or most States. Additional geospatial network files will be required so as to cover all public roadways in dual-carriageway format. Several of the additional data items or program requirement changes were made in response to HPMS customer initiatives such as improved timeliness of reporting, enhanced pavement reporting and modeling based on additional HPMS data items, and improved ability to estimate vehicle-miles of travel (VMT) data in EPA-designated non-attainment/maintenance areas by pollutant type, for example. It should be noted that part of the incentive to change the data model to a geospatial one was to enhance the utility and connectivity of HPMS data with several other internal and external data systems, making the data much more usable and available for various enhanced analyses. It is anticipated that the overall HPMS reporting burden and cost for the respondents will decrease over time due to streamlined data reporting changes that should benefit the respondents.
