ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and
its implementing regulations, the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
hereby announces that it is seeking
renewal of the following currently
approved information collection
activities. Before submitting these
information collection requirements
(ICRs) for clearance by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), FRA is
soliciting public comment on specific
aspects of the activities identified
below.

SUMMARY:

Comments must be received no
later than April 22, 2013.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments
on any or all of the following proposed
activities by mail to either: Mr. Robert
Brogan, Office of Safety, Planning and
Evaluation Division, RRS–21, Federal
Railroad Administration, 1200 New
Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 25,
Washington, DC 20590, or Ms. Kimberly
Toone, Office of Information
Technology, RAD–20, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New Jersey Ave.

20590. Commenters requesting FRA to
acknowledge receipt of their respective
comments must include a self-addressed
stamped postcard stating, ‘‘Comments

notice and include them in its
information collection submission to
OMB for approval.
Mr.
Robert Brogan, Office of Planning and
Evaluation Division, RRS–21, Federal
Railroad Administration, 1200 New
Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 25,
Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202)
493–6292) or Ms. Ms. Kimberly Toone,

1200 New Jersey Ave. SE., Mail Stop 35,
Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202)
493–6132). (These telephone numbers
are not toll-free.)

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

The
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), Public Law 104–13, § 2, 109 Stat.
163 (1995) (codified as revised at 44
U.S.C. 3501–3520), and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days notice to the public for
comment on information collection
activities before seeking approval for
reinstatement or renewal by OMB. 44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1),
1320.10(e)(1), 1320.12(a). Specifically,
FRA invites interested respondents to
comment on the following summary of
proposed information collection
activities regarding (i) Whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
activities will have practical utility; (ii)
the accuracy of FRA’s estimates of the
burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (iii) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (iv) ways for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public by
automated, electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology (e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses). See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)(I)–(iv); 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1)(I)–(iv). FRA believes that
soliciting public comment will promote
its efforts to reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information mandated
by Federal regulations. In summary,
FRA reasons that comments received
will advance three objectives: (i) Reduce
reporting burdens; (ii) ensure that it
organizes information collection
requirements in a ‘‘user friendly’’ format
to improve the use of such information;
and (iii) accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce

Below is a brief summary of the
currently approved ICRs that FRA will
submit for clearance by OMB as
required under the PRA:
Title: Qualifications for Locomotive
Engineers.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0533.
Abstract: Section 4 of the Rail Safety
Improvement Act of 1988 (RSIA), Public

Law 100–342, 102 Stat. 624 (June 22,
1988), later amended and re-codified by
Public Law 103–272, 108 Stat. 874 (July
5, 1994), required that FRA issue
regulations to establish any necessary
program for certifying or licensing
locomotive engineers. The collection of
information is used by FRA to ensure
that railroads employ and properly train
qualified individuals as locomotive
engineers and designated supervisors of

11949

locomotive engineers. The collection of
information is also used by FRA to
verify that railroads have established
required certification programs for
locomotive engineers and that these
programs fully conform to the standards
specified in the regulation.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Respondent Universe: 733 railroads.
Frequency of Submission: On
occasion; annually; tri-annually.
