Proposed Agency Information
Collection Activities; Comment
Request
Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA), U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice of information collection;
request for comment.
AGENCY:

Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, this notice
announces that FRA is forwarding the
Information Collection Requests (ICRs)
abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and comment. These ICRs
describe the information collections and
their expected burdens. On April 22,
2020, FRA published a notice providing
a 60-day period for public comment on
the ICRs.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before August
21, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed ICRs
should be sent within 30 days of
publication of this notice to
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
Find the particular ICR by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Hodan Wells, Information Collection
Clearance Officer, Office of Railroad
Safety, Regulatory Analysis Division,
Federal Railroad Administration,
telephone (202) 493–0440, email:
Hodan.wells@dot.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to issue
two notices seeking public comment on
information collection activities before
OMB may approve paperwork packages.
See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8
through 1320.12. On April 22, 2020,
FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting comment on
the ICRs for which it is now seeking
OMB approval. See 85 FR 22512. FRA
received two anonymous comments in
response to this notice. One commenter
expressed support for this ICR,
indicating that updates to the PRA
information positively impacts crews
and passengers; the other did not
address FRA’s information collection
activities.

18:11 Jul 21, 2020

Jkt 250001

Before OMB decides whether to
approve these proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for
public comment. Federal law requires
OMB to approve or disapprove
paperwork packages between 30 and 60
days after the 30-day notice is
published. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b)–(c); 5 CFR
1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983,
Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes the 30-day
notice informs the regulated community
to file relevant comments and affords
the agency adequate time to digest
public comments before it renders a
decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995.
Therefore, respondents should submit
their respective comments to OMB
within 30 days of publication to best
ensure having their full effect.
Comments are invited on the
following ICRs regarding: (1) Whether
the information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of FRA’s estimates of
the burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of information collection
activities on the public, including the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The summaries below describe the
ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
Title: Locomotive Cab Sanitation.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0552.
Abstract: FRA’s locomotive cab
sanitation standards, 49 CFR 229.137
and 229.139, prescribe minimum
standards for the locomotive cab
sanitation compartment, including the
toilet facility. FRA uses the information
collection associated with these
provisions to promote rail safety and
locomotive crew member health by
ensuring crew member access to a
functioning and sanitary toilet facility
and that railroads timely remediate
defective and unsanitary conditions in
the sanitation compartment.
Type of Request: Extension without
change of a currently approved
information collection.
Affected Public: Businesses
(railroads).
Form(s): N/A.
Respondent Universe: 746 railroads.
Frequency of Submission: One-time.
Total Estimated Annual Responses:
113,256.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:

Title: Locomotive Crashworthiness.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0564.
Abstract: Under 49 CFR part 229,
subpart D, FRA prescribes minimum
crashworthiness standards for
locomotives. These crashworthiness
standards are intended to help protect
locomotive cab occupants in the event
of a train collision or derailment. FRA
uses this collection of information to
ensure railroads operate locomotives
that meet the prescribed minimum
performance standards and design load
requirements for newly manufactured
and re-manufactured locomotives.
Type of Request: Extension with
change (revised estimates) of a currently
approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses/Public/

informs all interested parties that it may
not conduct or sponsor, and a
respondent is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its

provide 60-days’ notice to the public to
allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB
approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C.
3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8 through

burden of the information collection
activities, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and

including the use of automated

3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
FRA believes that soliciting public
comment may reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information that
Federal regulations mandate. In
summary, FRA reasons that comments
received will advance three objectives:
(1) Reduce reporting burdens; (2)
organize information collection
requirements in a ‘‘user-friendly’’ format
to improve the use of such information;
and (3) accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.

that FRA will submit for OMB clearance

Safety Appliance Standards, was
supplemented and expanded in 2013 to
include the industry standard
established by the Association of
American Railroads (AAR), Standard
2044 or S–2044, which prescribed safety
appliance arrangements for 11 new
types of cars. As a result of the
inclusion, FRA developed Forms FRA
F6180.161(a)–(k) as guidance checklist
forms to facilitate railroad, rail car
owner, and rail equipment manufacturer
compliance with S–2044 and 49 CFR
part 231.
AAR has since updated S–2044 to
include seven new types of cars. In
response, FRA is proposing adding
seven new forms, Forms FRA
F6180.161(l)–(r), to the safety appliance
standards guidance checklists to cover
these new types of cars.
Additionally, FRA is updating the
existing 11 forms to reflect editorial
changes that were made to S–2044.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Form(s): 11 forms (FRA F6180.161(a)–
(k)), plus seven new forms (FRA F

and Regulatory Capital Reporting for
Institutions Subject to the Advanced
Capital Adequacy Framework (FFIEC
101), which are currently approved
collections of information. The FFIEC
has also approved the Board’s
publication for public comment, on
behalf of the agencies, of a proposal to
revise and extend the Report of Assets

of a Non-U.S. Branch that is Managed or
Controlled by a U.S. Branch or Agency

agencies’ capital rule, the Board’s
regulations on reserve requirements and
insider loans, and the FDIC’s
assessments regulations as well as
certain sections of the Coronavirus Aid,
Relief, and Economic Security Act
(CARES Act) for which the agencies
received emergency approvals from
OMB. In addition, the agencies are
proposing changes to the Call Report
and the FFIEC 002 related to U.S.
generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). Further, the agencies
are proposing revisions to the Call
Report to reflect the expiration of the
temporary exception for estimated
disclosures on international remittance
transfers and certain amendments to the
Remittance Rule recently finalized by
the Consumer Financial Protection
