Abstract: The U.S. Department of Transportation (Department/DOT) requests the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) approval of information collection instruments in the Department’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM). The proposed changes in the NPRM seek to update the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) and Airport Concession DBE (ACDBE) program regulations at 49 CFR Parts 26 and 23, respectively. The proposed changes in the NPRM include new collection instruments as well as updates to existing collection instruments. This Supporting Statement includes five DBE program collection instruments for which OMB renewed approval on March 1, 2022. The Department is including them in this Supporting Statement because the NPRM would modify the paperwork burdens associated with those instruments. On March 10, 2022, OMB took under consideration the Department’s request for an OMB Control Number for an additional 18 DBE program information collection instruments that had not previously been submitted for OMB’s approval; as of the date of the submission of this Supporting Statement, approval from OMB is pending. On April 27, 2022, OMB took under consideration the Department’s request for an OMB Control Number for an Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (ACDBE) Program information collection that had not previously been submitted for approval (ICR Reference No: 202204-2120-002). As of the date of the submission of this Supporting Statement, approval from OMB is pending.
