Transportation (DOT) so as to comply
with the mandate by statute including
1101 (b) of the Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act: A Legacy for Users Public Law
109–59 and 49 U.S.C. 47113, Public Law
105–178. The key part of the collection
is a requirement that state and local
governments subject to the DBE program
report to the Secretary of Transportation
on DBE participation, as well as
maintain a directory of DBE firms and
report to the Secretary concerning the
composition of the directory. If these
reporting requirements were not
available, firms controlled by minorities
would not achieve the appropriate
participation in DOT programs, and the
Department would not be able to
identify its recipients and evaluate the
extent to which financial assistance
recipients have been awarded a
reasonable amount of contracting
dollars to DBEs.
In order to minimize the burden on
DOT recipients the Department has
limited its informational request and
reporting frequency to that necessary to
meet its program and administrative
monitoring requirements. The
information request consists of 17 data
items on one page and one attachment,
to be completed on a semi-annual basis
(for FHWA and FTA programs) or an
annual basis (for FAA programs).
Respondents: DOT financiallyassisted state and local transportation
agencies.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,057.
Estimated Total Burden on
Respondents: 1,311,000.
The information collection is
available for inspection in
regulations.gov, as noted in the
ADDRESSES section of this document.
Comments are Invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of
the Department’s estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) 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.
All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Omnibus Household Survey
Program.
Background: In 2005, Congress
passed, and the President signed, the
Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for
Users (SAFETEA–LU; Pub. L. 109–59).
SAFETEA–LU contained a number of
legislative mandates including
providing data, statistics and analyses to
transportation decision-makers. The
Research and Innovative Technology
Administration, Bureau of
Transportation Statistics (RITA/BTS)
was tasked to accomplish this legislative
mandate under 49 U.S.C. 111(c)(5).
RITA/BTS plans to use the Omnibus
Household Survey (OHS) to:
• Assess the public’s evaluation of
the nation’s transportation system in
light of the DOT’s strategic goals (safety,
reduced congestion, global connectivity,
environmental stewardship and
security, preparedness and response),
• provide a vehicle for the operating
administrations within the DOT as well
as other governmental agencies, to
survey the public about current
transportation issues, and
• provide national estimates of
transportation mode usage.
Each version of the OHS will focus on
some subset of topics taken from the list
below. Topics may vary from survey to
survey since covering all topics in one
questionnaire would make the
respondent burden unacceptable:
