Abstract: This is a request for an extension of an existing information collection under OMB Control No. 2137-0022 for reporting and recordkeeping requirements pertaining to manufacturers, requalifiers, and repairers of DOT Specification Cylinders. This information is used to verify that cylinders meet required manufacturing standards prior to being authorized for initial use, and once in use, that the cylinders are maintained and used in compliance with applicable requirements of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR Parts 171-180) as safe packagings for hazardous materials. The HMR are promulgated in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5110, the Federal hazardous materials transportation law. This information collection supports the Departmental Strategic Goal for Safety.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no revisions to the total number of burden hours for the renewal of this OMB Control Number. However, there is an adjustment in the number of respondents and responses. During review of this burden, PHMSA noted it has historically consolidated of all reporting and recordkeeping requirements into one information collection. As demonstrated throughout this justification, there are nine different reporting and recordkeeping requirements, which PHMSA is now identifying. These adjustments increase the number of responses and respondents. However, this did not change the number of total burden hours, because no changes were made to the cylinder requirements.
