Proposed Agency Information
Collection Activities; Comment
Request
Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice and comment request.
AGENCY:

Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), this notice
announces that FRA is forwarding the
renewal Information Collection
Requests (ICRs) abstracted below to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and comment. The
ICRs describe the information
collections and their expected burden.
On March 14, 2017, FRA published a
notice providing a 60-day period for
public comment on the ICRs.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before August 14, 2017.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Robert Brogan, Information Collection
Clearance Officer, Office of Railroad
Safety, Regulatory Analysis Division,
RRS–21, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE., Mail Stop 25, Washington,
DC 20590 (Telephone: (202) 493–6292);

SUMMARY:

The PRA,
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), and 1320.12. On March 14,
2017, FRA published a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register soliciting comment
on the ICRs for which it is now seeking
OMB approval. See 82 FR 13711. FRA
received no comments in response to
this notice.
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

1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983,
Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes 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
ICRs and their expected burden. FRA is
submitting the renewal requests for
clearance by OMB as the PRA requires.
Title: Hours of Service Regulations.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0005.
Abstract: FRA’s hours of service
recordkeeping regulations (49 CFR part
228, subpart F), include substantive
hours of service requirements and
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements for train employees (i.e.,
locomotive engineers and conductors)
providing commuter and intercity rail
passenger transportation (e.g., maximum
on-duty periods, minimum off-duty
periods, requirements to keep hours of
service records and report excessive
service). The regulations require
railroads to evaluate work schedules for
risk of employee fatigue and implement
measures to mitigate the risk, and to
submit to FRA for approval the relevant
schedules and fatigue mitigation plans.
These requirements were mandated by
the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008
(Pub. L. 110–432, Division A). FRA uses
the information collected under this
rule to ensure compliance with the
requirements of the regulation. FRA
uses the information collected to verify
that train employees of commuter and
intercity passenger railroads do not
exceed maximum on-duty periods,
abide by minimum off-duty periods, and
adhere to other limitations in this
regulation, to enhance rail safety and
reduce the risk of accidents/incidents
caused or contributed to by, train
employee fatigue.
Type of Request: Extension without
change of a current information
collection.
Affected Public: Businesses (railroads
and signal contractors).
Form(s): FRA F 6180.3.
Total Estimated Annual Responses:
27,687,317.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
3,514,805 hours.
Title: Reflectorization of Freight
Rolling Stock.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0566.
Abstract: This regulation (49 CFR part
224) requires the reflectorization of

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001

freight rolling stock (using
retroreflective material on freight cars
and locomotives) to enhance the
visibility of trains to reduce the number
and severity of accidents at highway-rail
grade crossings where visibility is a
contributing factor. FRA uses the
information collected to verify that the
person responsible for the car reporting
mark is notified after the required
inspection when the freight equipment
has less than 80 percent of the required
retroreflective sheeting present,
undamaged, and unobscured. Further,
FRA uses the information collected to
verify that the required locomotive
records of retroreflective sheeting
defects found after inspection are kept
in the locomotive cab or in a railroad
accessible electronic database FRA can
access upon request. Finally, FRA uses
the information collected to confirm
that railroads/car owners meet the
minimum requirements for the
inspection and maintenance of the
mandated retroreflective material. The
total estimated annual responses and
estimated annual burden hours
associated with this ICR have been
modified since the publication of FRA’s
first required notice under the PRA. The
estimates in this notice are corrections
to accurately account for inspection and
maintenance requirements and the time
required for railroads to notify car
owners of the condition of the required
retroreflective material.
Type of Request: Revision of a current
information collection.
Affected Public: Businesses (railroads
and car owners).
Form(s): FRA F 6180.113.
Total Estimated Annual Responses:
34,675.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
8,467 hours.
Title: Railroad Safety Appliance
Standards.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0594.
Abstract: FRA amended 49 CFR part
231 (Railroad Safety Appliance
Standards) on April 28, 2011 to add new
procedures for approval or modification
of safety appliances (§§ 231.33 and
231.35). See 76 FR 23714. FRA intended
the amendments to promote the safe
placement and securement of safety
appliances on rail equipment by
establishing a process for the review and
approval of existing industry standards.
This process permits railroad industry
representatives to request approval of
existing industry standards for the
safety appliance arrangements on newly
constructed railroad cars, locomotives,
tenders, or other rail vehicles, in lieu of
the provisions in 49 CFR part 231. This
special approval process enhances
railroad safety by allowing FRA to

consider technological advancements
and ergonomic design standards for new
car construction. It ensures that new rail
equipment complies with applicable
statutory and safety-critical regulatory
requirements related to safety
appliances while providing the
flexibility to efficiently address safety
appliance requirements on new designs
for railroad cars, locomotives, tenders,
or other rail vehicles. FRA uses the
information collected under this
regulation to better adapt to changes in
new rail car design while ensuring the
safety-appliance arrangements on new
cars meet the applicable statutory
requirements and are safe. In this
renewal submission, FRA is requesting
an extension with change due to revised
agency estimates.
Type of Request: Extension with
change of a current information
collection.
Affected Public: Railroads, Labor
Unions/General Public.
Form(s): N/A.
Total Estimated Annual Responses:
7,190.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
35,107 hours.
Addressee: Send comments regarding
these information collections to the
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20503, Attention: FRA
Desk Officer. Comments may also be
sent via email to OMB at the following
address: oira_submissions@
omb.eop.gov.
Comments are invited on the
following: Whether the proposed
collections of information are necessary
for DOT to properly perform its
functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
the accuracy of DOT’s estimates of the
burden of the proposed information
collections; ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and ways to minimize the
burden of the collections 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.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.
