B. Privacy Act
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c),
DOT solicits comments from the public
to better inform its rulemaking process.
DOT posts these comments, without
edit, including any personal information
the commenter provides, to
www.regulations.gov, as described in
the system of records notice (DOT/ALL–
14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at
www.transportation.gov/privacy.
II. Background
FMCSA received applications from 21
individuals who requested an
exemption from the FMCSRs
prohibiting persons with a clinical
diagnosis of epilepsy or any other
condition that is likely to cause a loss
of consciousness or any loss of ability to
operate a CMV from operating CMVs in
interstate commerce.
FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility
of these applicants and concluded that
granting these exemptions would not
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:06 May 28, 2020
Jkt 250001
provide a level of safety that would be
equivalent to, or greater than, the level
of safety that would be obtained by
complying with § 391.41(b)(8).
III. Basis for Exemption Determination
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and
31315(b), FMCSA may grant an
exemption from the FMCSRs for no
longer than a 5-year period if it finds
such exemption would likely achieve a
level of safety that is equivalent to, or
greater than, the level that would be
achieved absent such exemption. The
statute also allows the Agency to renew
exemptions at the end of the 5-year
period. FMCSA grants medical
exemptions from the FMCSRs for a 2year period to align with the maximum
duration of a driver’s medical
certification. The Agency’s decision
regarding these exemption applications
is based on the eligibility criteria, the
terms and conditions for Federal
exemptions, and an individualized
assessment of each applicant’s medical
information provided by the applicant.
IV. Conclusion
The Agency has determined that these
applicants do not satisfy the eligibility
criteria or meet the terms and
conditions of the Federal exemption and
granting these exemptions would not
provide a level of safety that would be
equivalent to, or greater than, the level
of safety that would be obtained by
complying with § 391.41(b)(8).
Therefore, the 21 applicants in this
notice have been denied exemptions
from the physical qualification
standards in § 391.41(b)(8).
Each applicant has, prior to this
notice, received a letter of final
disposition regarding his/her exemption
request. Those decision letters fully
outlined the basis for the denial and
constitute final action by the Agency.
This notice summarizes the Agency’s
recent denials as required under 49
U.S.C. 31315(b)(4) by periodically
publishing names and reasons for
denial.
The following 21 applicants do not
meet the minimum time requirement for
being seizure-free, either on or off of
anti-seizure medication:

ACTION: Notice of information collection;

AGENCY:
Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, FRA seeks
approval of the Information Collection
Request (ICR) abstracted below. Before
submitting this ICR to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
approval, FRA is soliciting public
comment on specific aspects of the
activities identified below.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before July 28,
2020.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments
on the ICR activities by mail to either:
Ms. Qiana Swayne, Information
Collection Clearance Officer, Office of
Railroad Policy and Development,
Federal Railroad Administration, 1200
New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC

correspondence submitted. FRA will
summarize comments received in
response to this notice in a subsequent
notice and include them in its
information collection submission to
OMB for approval.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days’ notice to the public to
allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB
approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C.
3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8 through
1320.12. Specifically, FRA invites
interested parties to comment on the
following ICR regarding: (1) Whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
activities will have practical utility; (2)
the accuracy of FRA’s estimates of the
burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (4) ways for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
FRA believes that soliciting public
comment may reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information that
Federal regulations mandate. In
summary, FRA reasons that comments
received will advance three objectives:
(1) Reduce reporting burdens; (2)
organize information collection
requirements in a ‘‘user-friendly’’ format
to improve the use of such information;
and (3) accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
The summary below describes the ICR
that FRA will submit for OMB clearance
as the PRA requires:
Title: Grants Management
Requirements for Federal Railroad
Administration. Grant Awards and
Cooperative Agreements.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0615.
Abstract: FRA solicits grant
applications for projects including, but
not limited to, preconstruction planning
activities, safety improvements,
congestion relief, improvement of grade
crossings, and rail line relocation, as
well as projects that encourage
development, expansion, and upgrades
to passenger and freight rail
infrastructure and services. FRA funds
projects that meet FRA and governmentwide evaluation standards and align
with the DOT Strategic Plan.
FRA administers award agreements
for both construction and nonconstruction projects that will result in
benefits or other tangible improvements
in rail corridors, service, safety, and
technology. These projects include
completion of preliminary engineering,
environmental, research and
development, final design, and
construction.
FRA requires systematic and uniform
collection and submission of
information, as approved by OMB, to
ensure accountability of Federal
assistance provided by FRA. Through
this information collection, FRA will
measure Federal award recipients’
performance and results, including
expenditures in support of agreed-upon
activities and allowable costs outlined
in an FRA Notice of Grant Award. This
information collection includes OMBrequired reports and documentation, as
well as additional forms and
submissions to compile evidence
relevant to addressing FRA’s important
policy challenges, promoting costeffectiveness in FRA programs, and
providing effective oversight of
