Description of Collection
Title: Arbitration Option Notices.

STB Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Extension with
change.
Respondents: All regulated rail
carriers.
Number of Respondents: 1.

Needs and Uses: Under 49 CFR
1108.3, rail carriers may agree to
participate in the Board’s arbitration
program by filing a notice with the
Board to ‘‘opt in.’’ Once a rail carrier is
participating in the Board’s arbitration
program, it may discontinue its
participation only by filing a notice to
‘‘opt out’’ with the Board, which would
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.
Dated: October 6, 2016.
