Proposed Agency Information
Collection
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE).
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments
AGENCY:

The Department of Energy
invites public comment on a proposed
collection of information that DOE is
developing for submission to the Office
of Management and Budget pursuant to
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,

SUMMARY:

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The proposed collection would
involve information that will enable
DOE to measure the impact and progress
of DOE’s National Clean Fleets
Partnership (Partnership). The
Partnership is an initiative through
which DOE provides large private-sector
fleets with technical assistance and
expertise to incorporate alternative fuels
and fuel saving measures into their
operations successfully. The initiative
builds on the established success of
DOE’s Clean Cities program. The
Partnership was developed with input
from fleet managers, industry
representatives, Clean Cities program
staff, and Clean Cities coordinators.
DATES: Comments regarding this
proposed information collection must
be received on or before December 26,
2012. If you anticipate difficulty in
submitting comments within that
period, contact the person listed in
ADDRESSES as soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Written comments may be
sent to Mr. Mark Smith, Office of Energy
Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EE–
2G), U.S. Department of Energy, 1000
Independence Avenue SW.,
Washington, DC 20585–0121, or by fax
at 202–586–1600, or by email at
Mark.Smith@ee.doe.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
instrument and instructions should be
directed to Mr. Mark Smith, Office of
Energy Efficiency and Renewable
Energy (EE–2G), U.S. Department of
Energy, 1000 Independence Avenue
SW., Washington, DC 20585–0121, (202)
287–5151, Mark.Smith@ee.doe.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
information collection request contains:
(1) OMB No. New; (2) Information
Collection Request Title: National Clean
Fleets Partnership Progress; (3) Type of
Request: New; (4) Purpose: DOE’s Clean
Cities initiative has developed a
voluntary National Clean Fleets
Partnership effort that establishes
strategic alliances with large private
fleets to help them explore and adopt
alternative fuels and fuel economy
measures to reduce petroleum use. The
Partnership does not endeavor to engage
a large number of fleets, but rather
works with select fleets committed to

emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 208 / Friday, October 26, 2012 / Notices
leading the way in reducing petroleum
consumption. Under a voluntary
agreement, Clean Cities commits to
provide each fleet with a designated
account manager for assistance and
support; work with fleets to develop
individual partner plans to reduce
petroleum use; provide technical
assistance, data, access to subject matter
experts, analysis, and unbiased
evaluation; provide education and
outreach materials to recognize a fleet’s
involvement with the Partnership and
its accomplishments; supply
mechanisms for fleet information
exchange and networking; and identify
and document progress related to
petroleum savings, cost savings, and
reductions in emissions. A participating
fleet commits to appointing a primary
contact; developing a petroleum use
reduction plan; acting to work toward
the goals set forth in the plan; tracking
progress and provide baseline
information and annual data on
petroleum use; and participating as an
active Clean Cities stakeholder.
The principal objective of collecting
the information DOE seeks to gather
through the Partnership effort is to
allow DOE to develop an objective
assessment and estimate of each fleet’s
impact and progress. Information
requested would be used to establish a
baseline of activities, vehicle
inventories, and fuel use for each fleet,
which will then be used for future
comparisons and analyses of instituted
programs and policies. A designated
representative for each participating
fleet will provide the requested
information. The intended respondent is
expected to be aware of relevant aspects
of the company’s fleet management,
such that the gathering of information is
not expected to be very resource
consuming.
The Partnership effort will rely on
data provided in a template spreadsheet
and responses to questions the
respondent chooses to answer during a
phone or in-person interview. The
questions and data collection would
address the following topic areas: (a)
Vehicle data, in terms of the number of
different vehicles in the fleet sorted by
fuel type and class or category of
vehicle; (b) Fuel data, in terms of the
quantity of fuel used in given vehicle
categories or classes, based on the type
of fuel; (c) Fuel use by type by zip code
or other appropriate geographic zone;
(d) type of infrastructure used; (e)
Current and historical fleet strategies to
reduce petroleum (driver training, idle
reduction, alternative fuels, right
sizing); and (e) Fleet operations (how
vehicles are fueled). The responses and
data will be compiled for the purpose of

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001

assessing progress against the fleet’s
baseline information, and impact in
terms of increasing deployment of
alternative fueled vehicles and
alternative fuels themselves.
The interview that would be part of
the voluntary Partnership initiative
would be completed on an annual basis,
at the convenience of the participating
fleet, there being no date by which the
questions must be completed.
Calculation of progress and impacts will
be undertaken on an ongoing basis, once
the interview is completed.
The data and subsequent analyses
will allow DOE to compare historical
records dynamically, and provide the
opportunity for each fleet to determine
annual progress. The Partnership is
targeted at large, private-sector fleets
that own or have contractual control
over at least 50 percent of their vehicles
and have vehicles operating in multiple
States. DOE expects approximately 30
fleets to participate in the Partnership
the first year and, as a result, DOE
expects a total respondent population of
approximately 20 respondents the first
year. Providing initial baseline
information for each participating fleet,
which occurs only once, is expected to
take 60 minutes. Follow-up questions
and clarifications for the purpose of
ensuring accurate analyses are expected
to take up to 90 minutes. (5) Annual
Estimated Number of Respondents: 20;
(6) Annual Estimated Number of Total
Responses: 20; (7) Annual Estimated
Number of Burden Hours: 50; and (8)
Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: There is no
cost associated with reporting and
recordkeeping.
