Hazardous Materials Incidents Reports

The information collections request (ICRs) within this OMB control number are mandatory for reporting incidents involving hazardous materials. Any entity involved in the transportation of hazardous materials will be most likely to respond to these ICRs. This OMB control number includes only reporting requests. These ICRs are typically conducted on an as-needed basis. The information in these ICRs consist of calling the National Response Center (NRC) and filing incident reporting forms with PHMSA. The purpose of these ICRs are to inform PHMSA of any incident involving the transportation of hazardous materials. Revisions to the ICRs within this control number were due to PHMSA going from one broad ICR to several ICRs in order to more accurately quantify the burdens under this OMB control number. During PHMSA’s review of the burden, it was noted that historically the information collections were grouped into a single collection. Following this review, PHMSA has adjusted this burden to two different information collections. Because of this adjustment, there has been a change to the number of respondents and responses and a slight change to the number of annual burden hours due to a better accounting of current burden hours.
