The original expiration date of the ICR was October 31, 2025. During the Federal government shutdown, in early October, FMCSA was not able to have the 30-day FR for the ICR published at the OFR therefore, to avoid the ICR from expiring, FMCSA submitted a request for emergency extension (EE) of the expiration date of the ICR. OMB approved the EE request on October 30, 2025 and the expiration date of the ICR was extended to December 31, 2025. When the shutdown ended the 30-day FR was published on November 19, 2025, and the ICR is now being resubmitted with a 60-day and 30-day FR for the approval of a 3-year ICR renewal. The information collection is mandatory reporting requirements and consists of 3 information collection instruments. IC-1, Form MCS-150, Motor Carrier Identification Report is filed by all motor carriers conducting operations in interstate or international commerce before beginning operations. It is also used by motor carriers needing to update previously submitted information, and on a biennial update basis. IC-2, Form MCS-150B, Combined Motor Carrier Identification and HM Permit Application is filed by interstate motor carriers that transport the permitted hazardous materials. It is also used by motor carriers needing to update previously submitted information, and on a biennial update basis. IC-3, Form MCS-150C, Intermodal Equipment Provider Identification Report is filed by IEPs that interchange intermodal equipment with a motor carrier or have contractual responsibility for the maintenance of the intermodal equipment. FMCSA uses the information to identify its regulated entities, to help prioritize the Agency’s enforcement activities, to aid in assessing the safety outcomes of those activities, and for statistical purposes. This information collection supports the agency’s strategic goal of safety by establishing and monitoring safe operating requirements for motor carriers, commercial motor vehicle drivers, vehicles, and vehicle equipment.

The total annual number of responses for this ICR increased by 252,564 from 688,732 to the proposed 941,296. The total number of respondents increased by 156,353 from 416,630 to the proposed 572,983. The total annual number of burden hours increased by 44,097 from 116,072 to the proposed 160,169. The total cost to respondents increased by 1,738,767 million from $5.1 million to the proposed $6.8 million. These changes were the result of an increase in the number of new filings and biennial updates for forms MCS-150, MCS-150B and MCS-150C from 2021 to 2023. The cost of mail increased from $224,682 to the proposed $227,917, which is minimal change. It should be noted that for this iteration international shipping costs were added to account for the Mexico-domiciled carrier population. This change was added to be more precise in the estimates. The cost to the Federal government increased from $1,120,165 to the proposed $4,758,268. This change is due to the increased filings in new and biennial updates for the forms covered under this ICR.
