The requested
revision to this information collection is not approved at this
time. OMB is deferring action until FMCSA has had an opportunity to
consider any public comments on the proposed rule. FMCSA's request
for three-year approval of this collection should summarize and
provide a response to any comments relating to this proposed data
collection. The agency is reminded that the request for three-year
approval must be coordinated with OMB's review of the final
rule.

number;
