information collection.
Background: The Federal Register
Notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on the following
collection of information was published
on June 5, 2024 (89 FR 48213). The
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993 (GPRA) Section 2(b)(3)
requires agencies to ‘‘improve Federal

program effectiveness and public
accountability by promoting a new
focus on results, service quality, and
customer satisfaction’’. In addition, as
stated in the White House
‘‘Memorandum for Heads of Executive
Departments and Agencies’’ regarding
Executive Order No. 12862, ‘‘the actions
the order prescribes, such as surveying
customers, surveying employees, and
benchmarking, shall be continuing
agency activities’’. This collection
supports the Department of
Transportation (DOT) strategic goal of
Organizational Excellence.
In compliance with the Government
Paperwork Elimination Act (GPEA), all
of our data collection will be 100%
electronic using an online form;
Applicants will be asked to complete
the survey just before they exit the
system. The AVIATOR Customer
Satisfaction Survey is designed to
identify potential problems with FAA’s
automated staffing solutions as well as
to evaluate customer satisfaction with
the on-line application process. The
information is not gathered by any other
collection. It will be difficult, if not
impossible, to improve the AVIATOR
system’s overall performance and
customer satisfaction without utilizing
the survey as a performance
measurement tool.
Respondents: 495,972 applicants
(from January 1, 2021, to December 31,
2023) had the opportunity to complete
a survey. This gives us a 3-year average
of 165,324 applicants per year. We
estimate that it takes 3 minutes to
complete one survey. Our data indicates
that 11.14% of applicants (18,424
averaged for 3 years) completed surveys
during this timeframe.
Frequency: On occasion/as interested.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: Three (3) minutes per person.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
18,424 respondents × 0.05 (3/60) = 921.

The data collected from proponents
granted exemptions is specified in the
conditions and limitations of the
exemptions under the authority
provided by 49 U.S.C. 106(f), 40113,
44701, and 44807. The data collected

BEYOND program to include additional
SLT governments.
BEYOND participants and other select
proponents submit operational data,
including monthly flight data,
Automated Data Service Provider

through 1320.12. On August 5, 2024,
FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting public
comment on the ICR for which it is now
seeking OMB approval. See 89 FR
63469. FRA has received no comments
related to the proposed collection of
information.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve this proposed collection of
information, it must provide 30 days’
notice 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) and (c); 5
CFR 1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978,
44983, Aug. 29, 1995. The 30-day notice
informs the regulated community of
their opportunity to file relevant
comments and affords the agency
adequate time to consider 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 ICR 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 summary below describes the ICR
that FRA will submit for OMB clearance
as the PRA requires:
Title: Inspection and Maintenance of
Steam Locomotives.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0505.
Abstract: The Locomotive Inspection
Act (LIA) establishes safety and
inspection requirements for locomotives
in ‘‘use’’ on a ‘‘railroad line.’’ 1 The
statute was first enacted in 1911 as part
of a broad congressional effort to
‘‘reduce the loss of life and the injuries’’
caused by the dangerous conditions that
prevailed on the railroads in the late
19th and early 20th centuries.2 In 1911,
Congress enacted the first iteration of
1 49

U.S.C. 20701 et seq.
v. Southern Pac. Co., 196 U.S. 1, 19
(1904); see Napier v. Atlantic Coast Line R.R., 272
U.S. 605, 607–608 (1926).

the LIA to address the harms posed by
locomotive boilers,3 making it
‘‘unlawful’’ for a common carrier ‘‘to
use any locomotive engine propelled by
steam power in moving interstate or
foreign traffic unless the boiler of said
locomotive and appurtenances thereof
are in proper condition and safe to
operate in the service to which the same
is put.’’ 4 To help ensure the locomotive
boilers and their appurtenances are in
proper condition, the Steam Locomotive
Inspection and Maintenance Standards
require certain boiler pressure
calculations and service-day inspections
to be recorded and available to FRA.5
Type of Request: Extension without
change (with changes in estimates) of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Form(s): FRA F 1, FRA F 2, FRA F 3,
FRA F 4, FRA F 5, and FRA F 19.

it may not conduct or sponsor, and a

to, a collection of information that does
not display a currently valid OMB
control number.
