Jkt 241001
Title: Annual Report of Class I Motor
Carriers of Passengers.
OMB Control Number: 2126–0031.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently-approved collection.
Respondents: Motor Carriers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
408.
Estimated Time per Response: 18
minutes.
Expiration Date: October 31, 2017.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 122
hours (408 responses × 18 minutes per
response/60 = 122.4 rounded to 122).
Section 14123 of title 49 of the United
States Code (U.S.C.) requires that the
Secretary of Transportation collect
annual financial reports from certain
for-hire motor carriers of passengers. All
Class I for-hire motor carriers of
passengers, carriers with gross annual
operating revenues of $5 million or
more, are required to complete and file
a Motor Carrier Annual Report Form
MP–1 for Motor Carriers of Passengers
(Form MP–1). See 49 CFR 369.3(a) and
369.4(a). The Form MP–1 annual report
will be used to collect financial,
operating, equipment and employment
data from individual motor carriers of
passengers.
The data collected will be available to
users in its original form. The data are
not used by the Department of
Transportation, and, based on a
comment to a proposed rule finalized on
December 17, 2013 (78 FR 76241), the
data are no longer used by trucking
associations. Insurance companies,
consultants, law firms, academia, trade
publications and others may use the
data to assess industry growth and its
impact on the economy, to identify
industry changes that may affect

national transportation, and to monitor
company financial stability. The Bureau
of Economic Analysis (BEA) of the U.S.
Department of Commerce uses the data
to inform the national annual inputoutput and Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) estimates. BEA uses the data to
prepare estimates of industry output
and provide details on inputs to
supplement the information on motor
carriers of passengers collected by the
U.S. Census Bureau.
In response to the March 16, 2017 60day Federal Register notice (82 FR
14103), FMCSA received two comments
questioning why the Agency continues
to require the annual report filing by
Class I passenger motor vehicles,
despite FMCSA’s statement that the data
is not used by the Agency. FMCSA’s
response to the comments is 49 U.S.C.
14123 requires that the Agency collect
such annual financial reports.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (1)
Whether the proposed collection is
necessary for FMCSA to perform its
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways for FMCSA
to enhance the quality, usefulness, and
clarity of the collected information; and
(4) ways that the burden could be
minimized without reducing the quality
of the collected information.
Issued under the authority delegated in 49
CFR 1.87 on: July 20, 2017.

Associate Administrator for Office of
Research and Information Technology.
