become effective 90 days after its filing.
Under the PRA, a federal agency that
conducts or sponsors a collection of
information must display a currently
valid OMB control number. A collection
of information, which is defined in 44
U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c),
includes agency requirements that
persons submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to the agency, third
parties, or the public. Section 3507(b) of
the PRA requires, concurrent with an
agency’s submitting a collection to OMB
for approval, a 30-day notice and
comment period through publication in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information.

decisions in Released Rates of Motor
Common Carriers of Household Goods,
RR 999 (Amendment No. 5) (STB served

Common Carriers of Household Goods,
RR 999 (Amendment No. 5) (STB served
Jan. 10, 2012). The information
collection is described in more detail
below. The Board previously published
a notice about this collection in the
Federal Register. 81 FR 35,810 (June 3,

quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; (3) ways to

information on the respondents,
including the use of automated

whether the collection has practical

summarized and included in the
Board’s request for OMB approval.
Description of Collection
Title: Household Goods Movers’
Disclosure Requirements.
OMB Control Number: 2140–0027.
STB Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension with
change.
Respondents: Movers that desire to
offer a rate limiting their liability on
interstate moves to anything less than
replacement value of the goods.
Number of Respondents: 7,000
(approximate number of Movers
involved in authorized for-hire
household goods carriage in the United
States according to American Moving
and Storage Association).
Frequency: On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: None. The
change to the estimate form is a onetime, start-up cost, which was
considered in the cost analysis of the
Board’s previous approval for this
collection. In our initial request for
approval, we estimated that 15 of the
approximately 4,500 household goods
movers were large firms that print their
own forms and would have to produce
modified forms to meet the new
requirement. Further, any new large
mover entrants would have to create
forms based on other agency
regulations—with or without the
released rate disclosure—and, therefore,
there is no longer an hourly burden for
this collection.
Total ‘‘Non-hour Burden’’ Cost:
Movers may provide these forms to
shippers electronically. Further, as with
the burden hours above, the one-time,
start-up costs that were previously
considered will no longer apply to
existing movers and new entrants will
not have any additional cost to add
released rates to the forms required
under other agency regulations.
Therefore, there is no longer a nonhourly cost burden for this collection.

Users, § 4215, Public Law 109–59, 119
Stat. 1144, 1760 (2005), directed the
Board to review consumer protection
regulations concerning the loss or
damage that occurs during interstate
household goods moves. In Docket No.
RR 999, the Board required household
goods motor carriers and freight
forwarders (together, Movers) to provide
their customers with clear written
information concerning the two
available cargo-liability options, if they
desired to offer a rate limiting their
liability on interstate moves to anything
less than replacement value of the
goods. Movers were required to provide
this information on the standard written
estimate form, which the Federal Motor
Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)
already required Movers to provide to
their household goods moving
customers. See 49 CFR 375.213. Thus,
Movers must inform consumers of their
rights and obtain a signed waiver if the
consumer elects anything other than
full-value protection. Previously,
consumers were sometimes confused
and did not realize that they had waived
full-value protection until after they had
experienced damage to or loss of their
goods. The information collection that is
the subject of this notice is intended to
correct this problem by providing early
notice regarding the two liability
options (full-value protection and the
lower released-rate protection), as well
as adequate time and information to
help consumers decide which option to
choose.
Under the PRA, a Federal agency
conducting or sponsoring a collection of
information must display a currently
valid OMB control number. A collection
of information, which is defined in 44
U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c),
includes agency requirements that
persons submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to the agency, third
parties, or the public. Section 3507(b) of
the PRA requires, concurrent with an
agency’s submitting a collection to OMB
for approval, a 30-day notice and
comment period through publication in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information.
