materials acceptance, handling, and
transportation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of
these information collection, including
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for FAA’s
performance; (b) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to
enhance the quality, utility and clarity
of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be
minimized without reducing the quality
of the collected information. The agency
will summarize and/or include your
comments in the request for OMB’s
clearance of these information
collections.
OMB Control Number: 2120–0705.
Title: Hazardous Materials Training
Requirements.
Form Numbers: No FAA forms are
associated with this information
collection.
Type of Review: Renewal of an
information collection.
Background: As prescribed in 14 CFR
parts 121 and 135, the FAA requires
certificate holders to submit hazardous
materials manuals and training
programs as part of the FAA’s
certification process. Revisions of the
hazardous materials manuals and
training programs must also be
submitted following certification. Initial
certification is completed in accordance
with 14 CFR part 119. Continuing
certification is completed in accordance
with 14 CFR parts 121 and 135. The
FAA uses the certification process to
determine compliance of the certificate
holder’s hazardous materials manual
and training programs with applicable
PO 00000
Frm 00160

Sfmt 4703
regulations, national policies, and safe
operating practices. It also ensures that
these documents adequately establish
safe operating procedures. Additionally,
14 CFR part 145 requires certain repair
stations to provide documentation
showing that persons handling hazmat
for transportation have been trained in
accordance with 49 CFR parts 171–180.
The submission of this documentation
is covered in this information
collection.
In the renewal, the FAA plans to
revise the title of this information
collection to ‘‘Hazardous Materials
Program Requirements’’ to better reflect
the information collected under this
OMB Control Number.
Respondents: The FAA estimates 62
certificate holders under Part 121, 1,844
certificate holders under Part 135, and
4,989 certificate holders under Part 145.
Frequency: Information is collected
on occasion. Part 121 and 135 certificate
holders submit their hazardous
materials manual and training program
during the initial certification process.
When a certificate holder revises their
manual or training program, they must
submit the revised manual and training
program to the FAA for approval. A Part
145 repair station is required to submit
documentation to the FAA certifying
that their hazmat employees are trained
in accordance with 49 CFR parts 171–
180 to receive initial certification.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 6.08 hours for Part 121
certificate holders, 3.58 hours for Part
135 certificate holders, and 2.16 hours
for Part 145 repair stations.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
23,282 hours for Part 121 certificate
holders, 15,635 hours for Part 135
certificate holders, and 1,396 hours for
Part 145 repair stations.

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c),
DOT solicits comments from the public
to better inform its regulatory process.
DOT posts these comments, including
any personal information the

www.regulations.gov as described in the

Background
Title 49, United States Code (U.S.C.)
section 504(b)(2) provides the Secretary
of Transportation (Secretary) with
authority to require carriers, lessors,
associations, or classes of these entities
to file annual, periodic, and special
reports containing answers to questions
asked by the Secretary. The Secretary
may also prescribe the form of records
required to be prepared or compiled and
the time period during which records
must be preserved (See 49 U.S.C.
PO 00000
Frm 00161
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
25743
504(b)(1) and (d)). FMCSA will use this
data to administer its safety programs
using a database of entities that are
subject to its regulations. This database
necessitates that these entities notify
FMCSA of their existence. For example,
under 49 CFR 390.19(a), FMCSA
requires all motor carriers beginning
operations to file Form MCS–150,
‘‘Motor Carrier Identification Report,’’
Form MCS–150B titled, ‘‘Combined
Motor Carrier Identification Report and
HM Permit Applications,’’ or Form
MCS–150C titled, ‘‘Intermodal
Equipment Provider Identification
Report.’’ This report is filed by all motor
carriers conducting interstate
operations, intrastate operations
transporting hazardous materials (HM),
or international commerce before
beginning operations. It asks the
respondent to provide the name of the
business entity that owns and controls
the motor carrier operation; address and
telephone of principal place of business;
assigned identification number(s), type
of operation, types of cargo usually
transported; number of vehicles owned,
term leased and trip leased; driver
information; and certification statement
signed by an individual authorized to
sign documents on behalf of the
business entity. Existing applicants will
use Form MCS–150, MCS–150B, or
MCS–150C to update their information
in the Motor Carrier Management
Information System. Applicants filing
for the first time will be required to file
online. Form MCS–150, MCS–150B will
be used for Mexico-domiciled carriers
that seek authority to operate beyond
the United States municipalities on the
United States-Mexico border and their
commercial zones, or MCS–150C will be
used by IEPs beginning operations that
interchange intermodal equipment with
a motor carrier or have contractual
responsibility for the maintenance of
intermodal equipment. The information
collected from the respondents is
readily available to the public. This
revised ICR captures the burden of
continued use of Form MCS–150, MCS–
150B for motor carriers updating their
registration information and for the
registration of Mexico-domiciled
carriers, or MCS–150C for IEPs.
Title: Motor Carrier Identification
Report.
OMB Control Number: 2126–0013.
Type of Request: Renewal of a
currently approved information
collection.
Respondents: Motor carriers, freight
forwarders, intermodal equipment
providers, brokers, motor carriers with
HM safety permit, cargo tank facilities
and Mexican motor carriers.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under
part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR), this document
provides the public notice that by letter
received March 27, 2025, NHRR
petitioned FRA for an extension of a
special approval pursuant to 49 CFR
part 215 (Railroad Freight Car Safety
Standards), and a waiver of compliance
from certain provisions of the Federal
railroad safety regulations contained in
parts 215, 223 (Safety Glazing
Standards—Locomotives, Passenger
Cars and Cabooses), and 224
(Reflectorization of Rail Freight Rolling
Stock).1 The relevant Docket Number is
FRA–2020–0066.
Specifically, NHRR requests to extend
the previous special approval pursuant
to § 215.203, Restricted cars, in this
docket for one caboose, NHRR C127,
that is more than 50 years from the date
of original construction. NHRR also
seeks new relief from § 215.303,
Stenciling of restricted cars, the safety
glazing requirements of part 223, and
the reflectorization requirements of part
224. In support of its request, NHRR
explains that the caboose will be used
in heritage excursion service between
New Hope and Warminster,
Pennsylvania, at a maximum speed of
20 miles per hour. NHRR states that the
waiver relief will allow the caboose to
keep its historical appearance, which is
1 NHRR’s original petition in this docket, dated
August 4, 2020, only requested a special approval
for the overage caboose, but did not seek waivers
for stenciling, glazing, or reflectorization. FRA’s
October 20, 2020, decision letter granted the special
approval.

‘‘integral to its purposes in heritage
passenger service.’’ NHRR adds that it
‘‘commits to ensuring adequate lighting
and operational oversight during any
dusk or nighttime use’’ to mitigate risks
related to the lack of reflectorization.
A copy of the petition, as well as any
written communications concerning the
petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov.
Interested parties are invited to
participate in these proceedings by
submitting written views, data, or
comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in
connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a
hearing. If any interested party desires
an opportunity for oral comment and a

comment period and specify the basis

final action is taken. Comments received
after that date will be considered if
practicable.
