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 May 9, 2016,
FTA published a 60-day notice (81 FR
28158) in the Federal Register soliciting
comments on the ICR that the agency
was seeking OMB approval. FTA
received no comments after issuing this
60-day notice. Accordingly, DOT
announces that these information
collection activities have been reevaluated and certified under 5 CFR
1320.5(a) and forwarded to OMB for
review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12(c).
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 to
best ensure having their full effect. 5
CFR 1320.12(c); see also 60 FR 44983,
Aug. 29, 1995.
The summaries below describe the
nature of the information collection
requirements (ICRs) and the expected
burden. The requirements are being
submitted for clearance by OMB as
required by the PRA.
Title: 49 U.S.C. Section 5339, Bus and
Bus Facilities Program.
OMB Control Number: 2132–0576.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: 49 U.S.C. Section 5339, the
Bus and Bus Facilities Program, was
originally authorized by the Moving
Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century
(MAP–21). The program was
reauthorized under the Fixing America’s
Surface Transportation (FAST) Act
Section 3017. This program authorizes
the Secretary of Transportation to
provide funding to replace, rehabilitate
and purchase buses and related
equipment and to construct bus-related
facilities including technological

changes or innovations to modify low or
no emission vehicles or facilities.
Funding is provided through formula
allocations and competitive grants. With
the passing of the FAST Act, two
competitive grant programs were added:
5339(b) for bus and bus facility projects
and 5339(c) for bus and bus facility
projects that support low and zeroemission vehicles. Eligible recipients
include 5307 Direct Recipients, States
and Federally Recognized Tribes.
Eligible sub-recipients include those
recipients that that receive a grant under
the formula or discretionary programs
and may allocate amounts from the
grant to sub-recipients that are public
agencies or private nonprofit
organizations engaged in public
transportation. Recipients apply for
grants electronically and FTA collects
milestone and financial status reports
from designated recipients and states on
a quarterly basis. The information
submitted ensures FTA’s compliance
with applicable federal laws.
Annual Estimated Total Burden
Hours: 60,650 hours.
All written comments must
refer to the docket number that appears
at the top of this document and be
submitted to the Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 17th
Street NW., Washington, DC 20503,
Attention: FTA Desk Officer.
Alternatively, comments may be sent
via email to the Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Office of
Management and Budget, at the
following address:
[email protected].
Comments are Invited On: 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.
