process for Canyon de Chelly National
Monument.
The FAA and the NPS have
determined that the ATMP constitutes a
Federal undertaking subject to
compliance with section 106 of the
NHPA and its implementing regulations
at 36 CFR part 800. The FAA and the
NPS have consulted with the Tribal
Historic Preservation Officer, federally
recognized Tribes, and other interested
parties to identify historic properties
and assess the potential effects of the
ATMP on them.
The proposed APE for this
undertaking (36 CFR 800.4(a)(1)) as
defined at 36 CFR 800.16(d) is the
geographic area or areas within which
the undertaking may directly or
indirectly cause alterations in the
character or use of any historic
properties, if any such properties exist.
FAA and NPS approval of the ATMP
does not require land acquisition,
construction, or ground disturbance,
and the FAA anticipates no physical
effects to historic properties. The FAA
is therefore focusing its assessment on
the potential introduction of visual or
audible elements that could diminish
the integrity of any identified significant
historic properties.
The historic property identification
effort has focused on identifying
properties for which setting and feeling
are characteristics contributing to a
property’s National Register eligibility,
as they are the type of historic property
most sensitive to the effects of aircraft
overflight. These may include isolated
properties where a cultural landscape is
part of the property’s significance, rural
historic districts, outdoor spaces
designed for meditation or
contemplation, and certain TCPs. The
agencies have taken into consideration
the views and input of consulting
parties, past planning, research and
studies, magnitude and nature of the
undertaking, degree of Federal
involvement, nature and extent of
potential effects on historic properties,
and the likely nature of historic
properties within the APE in accordance
with 36 CFR 800.4(b)(1). The historic
property identification effort has
focused on properties for which setting
and feeling are characteristics
contributing to the property’s National
Register eligibility.
In assessing the effects of the
undertaking on historic properties in the
APE, the FAA will consider the number
and altitude of commercial air tours
over historic properties to further assess
the potential for visual effects and any
incremental change in noise levels that
may result in alteration of the
characteristics of historic properties

qualifying them for the National
Register.
The comment period is open to the
public. The FAA and the NPS request
that comments be as specific as
possible. All written comments become
part of the official record. Written
comments regarding the section 106
consultation documents can be
submitted via PEPC or sent to the
mailing addresses provided on the
Park’s PEPC site. Comments will not be
accepted by fax, email, or any other way
than those specified above.

Clearance Officer, at email:

(757) 897–9908.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
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.
See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8
through 1320.12. On August 25, 2023,
FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting public
comment on the ICR for which it is now
seeking OMB approval. See 88 FR
58435. FRA has received no comments
related to the proposed collection of
information.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve this proposed collection of
information, it must provide 30-days’
notice for public comment. 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,
Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes the 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. 29, 1995.
Therefore, respondents should submit
their respective comments to OMB
within 30 days of publication to best
ensure having their full effect.
Comments are invited on the
following ICR regarding: (1) Whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
information 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 to minimize the
burden of information collection
activities on the public, including the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The summary below describes the ICR
that FRA will submit for OMB clearance
as the PRA requires:
Title: Critical Incident Stress Plans.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0602.
Abstract: Under 49 CFR part 272,
Class I, intercity passenger, and
commuter railroads are required to

not display a currently valid OMB
control number.

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, 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: Reflectorization of Rail Freight
Rolling Stock.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0566.
Abstract: FRA issued this regulation
to mandate the reflectorization of freight
rolling stock (using retroreflective
material on freight cars and
locomotives) to enhance the visibility of
trains to reduce the number and severity
of accidents at highway-rail grade
crossings where visibility was a
contributing factor.1 FRA uses the
information collected to verify that the
person responsible for the car reporting
mark is notified after the required visual
inspection when the freight equipment
has less than 80 percent of the required
retroreflective sheeting present,
undamaged, or unobscured.
Moreover, FRA uses the information
collected to verify that the required
locomotive records of retroreflective
sheeting defects found, after inspection,
are kept in the locomotive cab or in a
railroad accessible electronic database
that FRA can access upon request.
Finally, FRA uses the information
collected to confirm that railroads/car
owners meet the prescribed standards
for the inspection and maintenance of
the required retroreflective material.
In this 60-day notice, FRA makes no
adjustments to the previously approved
burden hours and responses in the
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs (OIRA) inventory.2
Type of Request: Extension without
change of a currently approved
collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Form(s): N/A.
Respondent Universe: 783 railroads
and freight car owners.
Frequency of Submission: On
occasion/monthly.
Reporting Burden:
1 See

70 FR 144, Jan. 3, 2005.
to the total cost equivalent in U.S.
dollars, a category not included in the OIRA
inventory, are due to updated statistics from the
