Jkt 250001

Estimated Total Annual Burden:
1,475 hours.
Background
FMCSA registers for-hire motor
carriers of regulated commodities under
49 U.S.C. 13902, surface freight
forwarders under 49 U.S.C. 13903, and
property brokers under 49 U.S.C. 13904.
Each registration is effective from the
date specified under 49 U.S.C. 13905(c).
Subsection (d) of 49 U.S.C. 13905 also
provides that on application of the
registrant, the Secretary may amend or
revoke a registration, and hence the
registrant’s operating authority. Form
OCE–46 allows these registrants to
apply voluntarily for revocation of their
operating authority or parts thereof. If
the registrant fails to maintain evidence
of the required level of insurance
coverage on file with FMCSA, its
operating authority will be revoked
involuntarily. Although the effect of
both types of revocation is the same,
some registrants prefer to request
voluntary revocation. For various
business reasons, a registrant may
request revocation of some part, but not
all, of its operating authority.
This information collection, which
supports the DOT Strategic Goal of
Safety, reflects modified estimates of
burden hours and costs. For
respondents, the program adjustment
has resulted in increased total burden
hours and an increase in respondent
costs. The burden hour increase is due
to an estimated increase in the number
of annual filings of Form OCE–46 from
3,501 to 5,901 per year, resulting in an
increase of 2,400 responses and 600
burden hours.
The previous iteration of this ICR did
not include estimated labor costs for
respondents; it only reported the
estimated annual burden hours. This
version adds estimated labor costs
according to best practices. The
estimated annual labor cost for industry
resulting from submitting Form OCE–46
is $49,527.
The total annual respondent cost has
decreased by $20,190. This decrease is
due to the fact that respondents may
now file the form online, at no charge.
While the online submission option
exists, FMCSA still estimates that
approximately 1,567 respondents will
continue to file the form by mail, which
incurs notarization and postage fees.
For the Federal Government, the
program costs have increased by
$11,176. While this ICR revised the
Federal labor wage load factor
downward to be consistent with the
methodology used in other FMCSA
ICRs, the overall cost to the Federal
Government increased due to the

increase in the number of forms
received by FMCSA.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (1)
Whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the FMCSA to perform it’s
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways for the
FMCSA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected
information; and (4) ways that the
burden could be minimized without
reducing the quality of the collected
information.
Issued under the authority delegated in 49
CFR 1.87.
