Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 135 / Tuesday, July 14, 2020 / Notices

The required content of a complaint is
outlined at 49 CFR 1111.1(a). Generally,
the most significant complaints filed at
the Board allege that railroads are
charging unreasonable rates or that they
are engaging in unreasonable practices.
The collection by the Board of these
complaints, and the agency’s action in
conducting proceedings and ruling on
the complaints, enables the Board to
meet its statutory duty to regulate the
rail industry.
In two notices of proposed
rulemakings, Final Offer Rate Review,
EP 755 et al. (84 FR 48872 (Sept. 17,
2019)), and Market Dominance
Streamlined Approach, EP 756 (84 FR
48882 (Sept. 17, 2019)), the Board
proposed new rules that are intended to
simplify and streamline certain
complaint proceedings. The Board has
submitted to OMB an interim request for
modification and extension of the
existing collection in connection with
those proceedings, and has received
comments, which it is reviewing. The
Board will need to submit another
request for modification of the
collection for complaints, and address
comments received in those
proceedings, should final rules be
adopted in those proceedings.
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.

Reforming Federal Government,
program with the following primary
intents, all of which are designed to
increase overall aviation safety:
Promote continuous improvements to
maintain the safest aviation system in
the world;
Understand current aviation
stakeholder (customer) perceptions of
effectiveness;
Produce actionable results and
findings to continue effective programs
while recommending alternate
strategies, where needed, to increase
effectiveness;
Communicate feedback effectively
with aviation stakeholders regarding
current effectiveness indices within
particular communities and the plan to
maintain effective programs or alter
other programs to increase effectiveness.
The information will be collected
from five aviation stakeholder groups;
general aviation pilots, mechanics,
repair station, commercial and air
transport pilots, and air carriers.
Information will be collected in the
areas of certification, communication,
safety, training, and interaction with the
FAA. The information will be collected
by an online survey program as well as
by paper copies sent directly to the
respondents.
Respondents: Respondents include
the Aviation Community (general
aviation pilots, mechanics, repair
station, commercial and air transport
pilots, and air carriers).
Frequency: NA.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: Twenty (20) minutes, on
average, to complete the survey in any
of the response modes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: The
total average annual burden for the 3year approval period is 527 hours per
year. A mixed mode survey approach is
being used in an effort to offset the
individual burden by providing a means
of requesting a print version and the
convenience of on-demand electronic
versions. This allows the respondent to
choose how and when to complete the
survey.
