recordkeeping. The adjustment in
annual burden hours is due to a revised
estimate of the number of reportable
accidents from 120,522 to 184,749 per
year, using interstate and intrastate
DOT-reportable motor carrier crash
records in MCMIS for calendar years
2016 through 2018. In the previous
iteration of this ICR, only crash records
for calendar year 2015 were considered,
and only crashes for carriers with a DOT
number and ‘‘recent activity’’ in MCMIS
were included. In the current iteration
of this ICR, we include recorded crashes
in which there is not a recorded DOT
number, but the CRASH_CARRIER_
INTERSTATE field in MCMIS is coded
as ‘‘Interstate’’ or ‘‘Intrastate’’ (thus
suggesting that they are commercial
carriers). This change in approach has
resulted in an increased estimate of
annual crashes subject to the Accident
Register reporting requirements, and
thus an increase in the number of
responses, as each crash is associated
with one response.
The revised version of this ICR
includes estimated labor costs
associated with maintaining the
Accident Register. The previous
iteration of this ICR did not include
such an estimate; it only reported the
estimated annual burden hours. The
estimated annual labor cost for industry
resulting from the Accident Register
reporting requirements is $1,860,617.
Finally, the estimated annual cost
associated with accident recordkeeping
(outside of labor costs) is increased from
$8,437 to $106,785. In the previous
iteration of this ICR, it was assumed that
all motor carriers were storing hard
copy records offsite, which is less costly
than storing hard copy records onsite
due to reduced space requirements. In
the current iteration of this ICR, FMCSA
is assuming that (1) approximately 15
percent of motor carriers are storing
their Accident Registers electronically,
at no extra cost, and (2) approximately
85 percent of motor carriers are storing
hard copy versions of their Accident
Registers. FMCSA is further assuming
that motor carriers that maintain paper
records are storing their Accident
Registers at their primary place of
business, so that they have easy access
to such records during an FMCSA
investigation. This change in storage
location increases the cost of storage,
from $0.07 to $0.68 per accident
recorded. While FMCSA is now
assuming that some motor carriers are
storing documents electronically at no
extra cost, the overall number of
responses has increased over prior
years, overtaking the reduction in
number of carriers storing hard copy
records.
