This is a request for an extension without change of OMB Control No. 2137-0014 for reporting and recordkeeping requirements pertaining to the manufacture, certification, inspection, repair, maintenance, and re-qualification of Department of Transportation (DOT) specification cargo tank motor vehicles. Reporting and recordkeeping requirements contained in this request have been determined by PHMSA to be essential. The HMR prescribe requirements for the operation, maintenance, repair, and re-qualification of all DOT specification cargo tanks to decrease the probability and number of hazardous material releases due to an accident or tank failure. These requirements are based on ongoing research, petitions for rulemaking, and incident reports on the release of hazardous materials related to cargo tank motor vehicle transportation. Cargo tank manufacturing, registration, and qualification and maintenance requirements are found in Part 178, Subpart J, Part 180, Subpart E, and Part 107, Subpart F, respectively. Manufacturers, assemblers, repairers, requalifiers, motor carriers, and operators of DOT specification cargo motor vehicles are subject to these reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Rulemaking and current regulatory authority is from the Federal hazardous materials transportation law (49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq.).

The proposed changes in this NPRM add two new information collections to this OMB control number. The first proposed information collection in § 180.407(f)(2) requires that a cargo tank owner to provide paperwork to the Registered Inspector for lining inspection. PHMSA estimates 1,333 cargo tank owners will provide paperwork for approximately 60 cargo tanks per year. It is estimated to take five minutes per response, for a total of 6,665 annual burden hours. The second proposed information collection in § 180.415(b) requires that a cargo tank inspector to mark the cargo tank with their registration number is expected to increase information collection burden. PHMSA estimates 3,400 cargo tank inspectors will mark each cargo tank approximately 61 times per year. The marking is anticipated to take five minutes per inspection, resulting in a total of 17,283 annual burden hours. If these two information collections are finalized, they will result in an increased burden on the regulated community.
