Please identify the relevant collection of
information by referring to its OMB
Control Number, 2127–0753.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), before an agency
submits a proposed collection of
information to OMB for approval, it
must first publish a document in the
Federal Register providing a 60-day
comment period and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information. The OMB has
promulgated regulations describing
what must be included in such a
document. Under OMB’s regulation (at
5 CFR 1320.8(d)), an agency must ask
for public comment on the following: (a)
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;

(c) how to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) how to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, including
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g. permitting electronic submission of
responses. In compliance with these
requirements, NHTSA asks for public
comments on the following proposed
collection of information for which the
agency is seeking approval from OMB.
Title: State Data Transfer (SDT).
OMB Control Number: 2127–0753.
Form Number(s): N/A.
Type of Request: Renewal with
modification of a currently approved
information collection.
Type of Review Requested: Regular.
Requested Expiration Date of
Approval: Three years from date of
approval.
Summary of the Collection of
Information: The State Data Transfer
(SDT) program is a voluntary collection
of motor vehicle crash data.
Participating States electronically
transfer Police Crash Report (PCR) data,
supplemental crash reports, and crash
images to NHTSA using automated
electronic data transfer (EDT) protocols.
Transfers typically occur nightly in
Extensible Markup Language (XML) or
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)
formats via web services. This
information collection updates the
burden estimates and removes the
legacy State Data System (SDS) protocol,
which is being sunsetted, leaving only
the automated EDT protocol in place.
The program includes Non-SEDC States
that voluntarily transmit data under the
terms of a memorandum of
understanding, as well as SEDC States
participating under the State Electronic
Data Collection (SEDC) discretionary
grant program, which requires states to
modernize their crash data repositories,
align with Model Minimum Uniform
Crash Criteria (MMUCC) Sixth Edition
standards, and transfer data
electronically.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: NHTSA uses SDT data to
identify existing and emerging highway
safety trends, evaluate the effectiveness
of motor vehicle safety standards, and
develop countermeasures to reduce
deaths and injuries from motor vehicle
crashes. The data allows NHTSA to
study the effectiveness of emerging
technologies, such as advanced driver
assistance systems (ADAS), and
supplies critical volume to support costbenefit analyses for Corporate Average

PO 00000

Frm 00083

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

Fuel Economy (CAFE) rulemakings
regarding vehicle mass and fatality
rates. Furthermore, automated SDT data
pre-populates several NHTSA systems
and special studies, including the
Fatality Analysis Reporting System
(FARS), Crash Report Sampling System
(CRSS), and Crash Investigation
Sampling System (CISS). This electronic
transfer significantly reduces the
administrative and technical burden on
States by eliminating manual,
redundant data entry into Federal
databases.
Affected Public: State governments,
the District of Columbia government,
and U.S. Territory governments
(generically referred to as ‘‘States’’).
Estimated Number of Respondents:
35.
Frequency: Nightly/daily automated
electronic feeds, with some respondents
submitting weekly or monthly.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 14,386 hours.
The SDT Program receives crash data
from States in two ways: (1) the NonSEDC protocol, under a voluntary MOU
between NHTSA and each State, of
which there are currently 22
participating States, and (2) the SEDC
grant, which imposes specific grant
requirements; there are 18 SEDC
grantees. Of the 22 Non-SEDC States, 10
have been awarded SEDC grants and
will transition to SEDC transmission
requirements by January 2030. The
remaining eight participating SEDC
grantees are actively developing their
capabilities to implement electronic
data transmission under the SEDC
requirements by that same deadline.
This ICR is being modified to remove
the legacy SDS protocol and to reflect
the ongoing EDT participation by both
Non-SEDC States and SEDC grantees. As
a result, NHTSA projects a total of 33
annual respondents by January 2030: 12
Non-SEDC States (the 22 original States
minus the 10 transitioning to SEDC) and
18 SEDC grantees (the 10 transitioning
EDT States plus the 8 SEDC-only
States). The transition to the SEDC
transmission will happen gradually,
with approximately three States
migrating per year until all 10 complete
the shift by January 2030. The eight
SEDC-only States will also begin their
SEDC transmissions over this period.
Because the transmission requirements
differ for Non-SEDC and SEDC grantees,
the annual burden for each group is
detailed separately below.
States Using SDS Protocol
SDS information was previously
obtained using a traditional method via
electronic media through secured mail
or a Secure File Transfer Protocol

(SFTP) from participating States on an
annual basis. However, this collection
has been sunset, removing the
associated State burden.
Non-SEDC EDT Protocol
The State burden associated with the
EDT protocol varies between Non-SEDC
States and SEDC grantees. This
difference is driven by the distinct
requirements placed on each group,

such as mutually agreed upon data
sharing memorandum of understanding
for Non-SEDC States or mandatory data
standardization and MMUCC alignment
for SEDC grantees.
The burden estimate for Non-SEDC
States is derived from the actual level of
effort reported by states currently using
the Non-SEDC EDT protocol. NHTSA
projects that each year, one additional
state will implement the protocol, while

several existing SEDC grantees will
transition from Non-SEDC to SEDC
requirements annually. Consequently,
NHTSA anticipates an average of 17
active Non-SEDC states annually over
the next three years (22 in Year 1, 20 in
Year 2, and 18 in Year 3) as shown in
Table 1. For these states, the burden is
limited to annual maintenance, apart
from the newly added state, which also
includes implementation costs.

Maintenance Burden Calculation for
Non-SEDC States
Non-SEDC States report an annual
maintenance burden of five (5) hours
per respondent, primarily dedicated to
troubleshooting connections and
refining data mapping protocols. To
calculate the economic impact, NHTSA
utilizes the May 2024 BLS mean wage
for Software and Web Developers
($71.54/hour).1 Adjusting for total
compensation, where wages comprise
61.7% 2 of the package, the fully loaded
hourly rate is $115.95. Consequently,
the annual maintenance cost per state is
approximately $579.75. Based on a
projected average of 20 participating
Non-SEDC States, the total annual
collective burden is estimated at 100
hours and $11,595.00 in labor costs.
Implementation Burden Calculation for
Non-SEDC States
States report an initial
implementation burden of 150 hours per
respondent. To calculate the economic
impact, NHTSA utilizes the May 2024
BLS mean wage for Software and Web
Developers ($71.54/hour). Adjusting for
total compensation, where wages
comprise 61.7% of the package, the
fully loaded hourly rate is $115.95.

for a new Non-SEDC EDT State is

approximately $17,392.50 in labor costs.
Based on the addition of one new
participating State, the total collective
implementation burden is estimated at
150 hours and $17,392.50 in labor costs.
SEDC EDT Protocol
On January 31, 2024, NHTSA issued
a Notice of Funding Opportunity
(NOFO) to modernize state crash data
systems and facilitate electronic data
transfer to NHTSA, which is the SEDC
program. Twenty-six jurisdictions,
including States, Territories, and the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, applied for the
SEDC grant. Nineteen applicants were
awarded the SEDC Grant. There are
currently eighteen active SEDC grantees,
with one grantee terminating their
agreement in the first year of the project.
SEDC grantees must commit to
electronically transferring standardized
crash data to NHTSA within five years
of the award. Key implementation
actions and funding uses were
identified from each State’s workplan
and budget for the following three goals:
(i) equipment to upgrade a statewide
crash data repository;
(ii) adoption of electronic crash
reporting by law enforcement agencies;
and
(iii) increasing alignment of State
crash data with the latest Model
Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria.
Under the SEDC grant, States
(excluding American Samoa) are
required to provide a 20% non-federal
match of the total grant award. Because
grant applications required total budget
commitments rather than granular labor
categories, NHTSA’s State burden
estimates are derived directly from these
matching funds committed. These costs

PO 00000

Frm 00084

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

cover both the initial development
effort, such as repository updates and
MMUCC alignment, and the ongoing
implementation of standardized data
transmissions. The SEDC grant does not
allow operation and maintenance costs,
therefore, the same Non-SEDC State
calculations are used to estimate the
maintenance burden cost for the SEDC
grantees.
NHTSA anticipates that during the
first two (2) years of the grant, i.e., the
past and current year, all States will be
in the development and implementation
phase, meaning no data transmission is
expected. Beginning next year
(Current+1), States will gradually begin
transmitting data using the SEDC
protocol, either by converting from an
existing Non-SEDC EDT system or
joining as a brand-new SEDC state.
Specifically, NHTSA estimates that two
states will begin transmitting in Year
(Current+1), five in Year (Current+2),
and five in Year (Current+3), averaging
four states per year. Over these final
three years, an average of seven states
per year will be actively transmitting
data. Concurrently, for the next three
years, the number of states in the
maintenance phase will scale from zero
Year (Current+1) to two Year
(Current+2), and seven Year
(Current+3), averaging three states per
year. Meanwhile, the number of states
remaining in the implementation phase
will decrease from 16 Year (Current+1)
to 11 Year (Current+2), and six
(Current+3), averaging 11 states per
year. The details are shown in Table 2.

Implementation Burden Calculation for
SEDC States
The collective burden calculation for
the 17 SEDC States based on the State’s
matching fund, except for American
Samoa which is not required to provide
matching fund. These matching funds
represent eligible expenses such as state
employee labor, contractual services, IT,
and equipment costs. Because this
comprehensive project inherently
demands a mix of contractual services,
IT or equipment needs, in addition to
State’s personnel costs, some States
agreed to a flat 20% match under
personnel, contractual or a combination
of eligible cost categories rather than
calculating an exact mathematical
breakdown for each individual line
item.
Out of the eighteen SEDC States, 15
committed matching funds for State
personnel costs. Among these, only four
States itemized their actual labor costs
and burden hours, while the remaining
11 committed to a flat percentage. Based
on the four states that explicitly
provided estimated burden hours for
their matching personnel costs, the

baseline average per State is 1,284
burden hours annually, with a
corresponding average labor cost of
$198,512.65. Applying these averages to
the 11 states projected to be in the
implementation phase each year, the
total labor burden hours and cost are
14,121 hours and $2,183,639.15.
Nine out of these fifteen States also
committed a percentage of their Statematch to contractual costs, which may
be used for contractor, IT, or equipment
activity costs. The remaining three
States committed their entire matching
requirement to the contractual cost
category without exact breakdowns for
contractual services, IT and equipment
costs.
Maintenance Burden Calculation for
SEDC States
Non-SEDC States report an annual
maintenance burden of five (5) hours
per respondent, primarily dedicated to
troubleshooting connections and
refining data mapping protocols.
NHTSA will apply this same annual
maintenance burden to the SEDC
grantees. To calculate the economic

impact, NHTSA utilizes the May 2024
BLS mean wage for Software and Web
Developers ($71.54/hour.) 3 Adjusting
for total compensation, where wages
comprise 61.7% 4 of the package, the
fully loaded hourly rate is $115.95.
Consequently, the annual maintenance
cost per state is approximately $579.75.
Based on a projected average of 3
participating SEDC States under
maintenance phase, the total annual
collective burden is estimated at 15
hours and $1,739.25 in labor costs.
Table 3 is a representation of
implementation and maintenance
burden. The breakdown is based on
information received from every SEDC
grantees’ workplan and budget
descriptions. NHTSA estimates burden
for development and implementation
using actual labor hour and cost
breakdowns when available, percent
cost commitment, or actual monetary
figures provided. Maintenance costs are
based on known State maintenance
burden reported by Non-SEDC EDT
States currently maintaining the EDT
protocol.

on information provided by the SEDC
grantees, as part of the required 20%
match from each grantee with the

exception of American Samoa, NHTSA
estimates the annual average per State
burden cost for the SEDC program
(beyond the labor costs discussed above)
will be about $569,293.73 for the nonlabor burdens, which includes
contracts, equipment, IT cost and other
miscellaneous burdens. For the eleven

On March 2, 2026, BTS published a
notice (91 FR 10198) encouraging
interested parties to submit comments
to docket number DOT–OST–2026–0893
and allowing for a 60-day comment
period. The comment period closed on
May 1, 2026. Two comments were
received. All comments were posted,
without edit, to https://
www.regulations.gov, as described in
the system of records notice (DOT/ALL–
14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at

III. Discussion of Public Comments and
BTS Responses
BTS received a comment from a
transportation logistics company which
was deemed nonrelevant, as the
comment did not include any input on
the FLOW collection. The second
comment stated support for renewal of
the FLOW collection and its scope,
which includes data from beneficial
cargo owners, intermodal equipment
providers, the logistics real estate sector,
ports and marine terminal operators,
motor carriers, ocean carriers, nonvessel operating common carriers, rail
carriers, and third-party logistics
providers. The commenter proposed
additional metrics and signals that
could be developed from FLOW data to
provide value to program participants.
Specifically, the commenter proposed
developing a set of summary indicators

of freight risk to help participants to
proactively adjust their operations to
improve throughput and mitigate or
avoid congestion. BTS appreciates these
suggestions and will consider them in
the development of additional analytics
and models using the FLOW data.
