Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 113 / Monday, June 13, 2016 / Notices
VI. Conclusion
Based upon its evaluation of the five
exemption applications, FMCSA
exempts the following drivers from the
epilepsy/seizure standard in 49 CFR
391.41(b)(8), subject to the requirements
cited above: Eric Joseph Barnwell (MI);
Jason S. Coleman (NJ); Charles A.
McCarthy III (MA); Randy P. Schuelke
(WI); and Cory R. Wagner (IL).
In accordance with 49 U.S.C.
31315(b)(1), each exemption is valid for
2 years, unless revoked earlier by
FMCSA. The exemption will be revoked
if the following occurs: (1) The
individual fails to comply with the
terms and conditions of the exemption;
(2) the exemption has resulted in a
lower level of safety than was
maintained prior to being granted; or (3)
continuation of the exemption would
not be consistent with the goals and
objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136 and 31315.
If the exemption is still effective at the
end of the 2-year period, the individual
may apply to FMCSA for a renewal
under procedures in effect at that time.
Issued on: June 3, 2016.

Nation’s streets, sidewalks, crosswalks,

system will provide an accessible,
coordinated, and seamless web-based
portal for the traveling public to submit
accessibility problems or challenges
they face during travel on the Nation’s
streets, sidewalks, crosswalks, buses,

2015, as well as a letter to the Secretary
of Transportation from the NCD dated
May 12, 2015. The information received
through the system will strengthen
DOT’s ability to understand the
challenges and impacts that passengers
with disabilities face every day when
they use our nation’ transportation
systems.

Frm 00138

Department—sometimes being time
consuming and cumbersome for the
traveling public. Establishing a
streamlined and consistent process
would respond directly to the
President’s National Council on
Disability, and more importantly, the
information received through this new
system would strengthen our ability to
understand the challenges and impacts
that persons with disabilities face every
day as they travel using our nation’s
transportation systems. This would also
offer significant improvements to
ensuring that access to all modes of
transportation is available to persons
with disabilities and members of the
public.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
the U.S. Department of Transportation
currently collects data on ADA and
other civil rights-related concerns based
on information provided by the public
via written submission, or through a
toll-free telephone number. Based on
our analysis of data collected through
present formats, DOT receives
approximately 850 separate responses
from the general public on accessibilityrelated concerns, including:
• 150 pieces of correspondence on
one-time accessibility-related incidents
• 120 email messages
• 400 telephone calls
• 172 formal accessibility-related
complaints.
Currently, the estimated Total Burden
on Respondents: 15 to 30 minutes per
submission.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including, (a)
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
processing of transportation-related
accessibility issues; (b) the accuracy of
the estimated burden; (c) ways for the
DOT to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information collection; and
(d) ways that the burden could be
minimized without reducing the quality
of the collected information. All
responses to the notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.
