Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:

In compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), this notice
announces that the Information
Collection Requests (ICRs) abstracted
below are being forwarded to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and comment. The ICRs describe
the nature of the information collections
and their expected burdens. The
Federal Register notice with a 60-day
comment period soliciting comments on
the following collections of information
was published on September 16, 2013
(78 FR 56995).
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before January 2, 2014.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Robert Brogan, Office of Safety,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), Public Law 104–13, Section 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 issue
two notices seeking public comment on
information collection activities before
OMB may approve paperwork packages.
44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.5,
1320.8(d)(1), 1320.12. On September 16,
2013, FRA published a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register soliciting comment
on these ICRs for which the agency is
seeking OMB approval. 78 FR 56995.
FRA received no comments in response
to this notice pertaining to the two
renewal collections of information
referenced below.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve these proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for
public comment. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b); 5
CFR 1320.12(d). Federal law requires
OMB to approve or disapprove
paperwork packages between 30 and 60
days after the 30 day notice is
published. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b)–(c); 5 CFR
1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983,
Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes that the 30
day notice informs the regulated
community to file relevant comments
and affords the agency adequate time to
digest public comments before it
renders a decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug.
29, 1995. Therefore, respondents should
submit their respective comments to
OMB within 30 days of publication of
this Notice to best ensure having their
full effect. 5 CFR 1320.12(c); see also 60
FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995.
The summary below describes the
nature of the information collection
requests (ICRs) and the expected burden
being submitted for clearance by OMB
as required by the PRA.
Title: Railroad Communications.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0524.
Type of Request: Extension with
change of a previously approved
collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Abstract: The Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) amended its radio
standards and procedures to promote
compliance by making the regulations
more flexible; to require wireless
communications devices, including
radios, for specified classifications of
railroad operations and roadway
workers; and to re-title this part to
reflect its coverage of other means of
wireless communications such as
cellular telephones, data radio

terminals, and other forms of wireless
communications to convey emergency
and need-to-know information. The new
rule establishes safe, uniform
procedures covering the use of radio
and other wireless communications
within the railroad industry.
Form Number: N/A.
Total Annual Estimated Burden
Hours: 337,717 hours.
Title: Safety Integration Plans.
Type of Request: Extension without
change of a previously approved
collection.
Abstract: The Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) and the Surface
Transportation Board (STB), working in
conjunction with each other, have
issued joint final rules establishing
procedures for the development and
implementation of safety integration
plans (‘‘SIPs’’ or ‘‘plans’’) by a Class I
railroad proposing to engage in certain
specified merger, consolidation, or
acquisition of control transactions with
another Class I railroad, or a Class II
railroad with which it proposes to
amalgamate operations. The scope of the
transactions covered under the two
rules is the same. FRA uses the
information collected, notably the
required SIPs, to maintain and promote
a safe rail environment by ensuring that
affected railroads (Class Is and some
Class IIs) address critical safety issues
unique to the amalgamation of large,
complex railroad operations.
Form Number(s): N/A.
Total Annual Estimated Burden
Hours: 528 hours.
Addressee: Send comments regarding
this information collection to the Office
of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, 725
Seventeenth Street NW., Washington,
DC 20503, Attention: FRA Desk Officer.
Comments may also be sent via email to
OMB at the following address: [email protected].
Comments are invited on the
following: Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Department, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; the accuracy of the
Department’s estimate of the burden of
the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
A comment to OMB is best assured of
having its full effect if OMB receives it
within 30 days of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register.

In compliance with the

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), this notice
announces that the Information
Collection Request (ICR) abstracted
below has been forwarded to the Office

Title: Importation of Vehicles and
Equipment Subject to the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety, Bumper, and Theft
Prevention Standards.
OMB Number: 2127–0002.
Type of Request: Extension of a
Currently Approved Collection.
Abstract: The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
has requested OMB to extend that
agency’s approval of the information
collection that is incident to NHTSA’s
administration of the regulations at 49
CFR parts 591, 592, and 593 that govern
the importation of motor vehicles and
motor vehicle equipment. The
information collection includes
declarations that are filed (on the HS–
7 Declaration form) with U.S. Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) upon the
importation of motor vehicles or motor
vehicle equipment that is subject to the
SUMMARY:

PO 00000

Frm 00124

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

Federal motor vehicle safety, bumper,
and theft prevention standards
administered by NHTSA. The
information collection also includes the
Department of Transportation (DOT)
conformance bond that is furnished to
CBP (on form HS–474) for each motor
vehicle offered for importation that does
not conform to all applicable Federal
motor vehicle safety standards
(FMVSS). The bond ensures that such
vehicles are brought into conformity
with those standards within 120 days
from the date of entry or are exported
from, or abandoned to, the United
States. The information collection also
includes paperwork that must be
submitted to NHTSA and in some
instances retained by registered
importers (RIs) of motor vehicles that
were not originally manufactured to
comply with all applicable FMVSS.
These items include information that a
person or business entity must submit to
NHTSA to be registered as an RI and to
retain that status. The paperwork also
includes the statement of conformity
that an RI must submit to NHTSA
following the completion of
conformance modifications on an
imported nonconforming vehicle to
obtain release of the DOT conformance
bond furnished for the vehicle at the
time of entry. Also included is the
petition that an RI or manufacturer may
submit to NHTSA for the agency to
decide that a vehicle that was not
originally manufactured to comply with
all applicable FMVSS is capable of
being modified to conform to those
standards and is therefore eligible for
importation under 49 U.S.C. 30141. The
information collection also includes
applications that are filed with NHTSA
for permission to import nonconforming
vehicles for purposes of research,
investigations, demonstrations, training,
competitive racing events, and show or
display, as well as applications
requesting the agency to recognize
vehicles manufactured for racing
purposes as being qualified to be
imported as vehicles that were not
primarily manufactured for use on
public roads, precluding the need for
those vehicles to comply with the
FMVSS. This information collection is
necessary to ensure that motor vehicles
and motor vehicle equipment subject to
the Federal motor vehicle safety,
bumper, and theft prevention standards
are lawfully imported into the United
States and that RIs and applicants for RI
status are capable of meeting their
obligations under the statutes and
regulations governing the importation of
nonconforming vehicles.
