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
published. 44 U.S.C. 3507 (b)–(c); 5 CFR
1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983,

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.

submit their respective comments to
OMB within 30 days of publication to
best ensure having their full effect. 5

Title: Nondiscrimination as It Applies
to FTA Grant Programs.
OMB Control Number: 2132–0542.
Type of Request: The Federal Transit
Laws, 49 U.S.C. 5332(b), provide that

national origin, sex, or age be excluded
from the participation in, be denied the
benefits of, or be subjected to
discrimination under any project,

in part through financial assistance
under this Act.’’ This applies to

(PRA), Public Law 104–13, Section 2,
109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised
at 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), 1320.12. On December 8,
2021 FTA published a 60-day notice (86
FR 69712) in the Federal Register
soliciting comments on the ICR that the
agency was seeking OMB approval. FTA
received no comments after issuing this
60-day notice. Accordingly, DOT
announces that these information
collection activities have been reevaluated and certified under 5 CFR
1320.5(a) and forwarded to OMB for
review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12(c).
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

Title: Job Access and Reverse
Commute Program.
OMB Control Number: 2132–0563.
Type of Request: The Job Access and
Reverse Commute (JARC) program,
provided grants for filling gaps in
employment transportation. The
primary beneficiaries of this program
were low-income families and families
coming off welfare assistance who
otherwise would have a difficult time
getting to jobs and related services, such
as child care and training. The program
was begun in 1999 and was continued
under Section 5316 of the federal
transportation legislation, Safe,
Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for
Users (SAFETEA–LU), passed by

Congress in 2005. The JARC program
authorized two kinds of grants: Job
Access grants (aimed at developing new
transportation services for low-income
workers and/or filling in gaps in
existing services) and Reverse Commute
projects (intended to provide
transportation to suburban jobs from
urban, rural and other suburban
locations—but not necessarily just for
low-income people). The JARC program
was repealed under the Moving Ahead
for Progress in the 21st Century Act
(MAP–21). Although the program has
expired, JARC activities are eligible for
funding under FTA’s Urbanized Area
Formula Grants (Section 5307) and the
Formula Grants for Rural Areas (Section
5311) programs. However, funds
previously authorized for the program
repealed by MAP–21 remain available
for their originally authorized purposes
until the period of availability expires,
the funds are fully expended, the funds
are rescinded by Congress, or the funds
are otherwise reallocated.
Respondents: State and local
government, business or other for-profit
institutions, and non-profit institutions.
Estimated Total Annual Respondents:
49.
Estimated Total Burden Hours per
Respondent: 2 hours.
Estimated Annual Burden on
Respondents: 98 hours.
Frequency: Annually.

may have on U.S. vessel builders or
businesses in the U.S. that use U.S.-flag
vessels. If MARAD determines, in
accordance with 46 U.S.C. 12121 and
MARAD’s regulations at 46 CFR part
388, that the employment of the vessel
in the coastwise trade to carry no more
than 12 passengers will have an unduly
adverse effect on a U.S.-vessel builder or
a business that uses U.S.-flag vessels in
that business, MARAD will not issue an
approval of the vessel’s coastwise
endorsement eligibility. Comments
should refer to the vessel name, state the
commenter’s interest in the application,

in section 388.4 of MARAD’s
