Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 201 / Wednesday, October 19, 2005 / Notices Number ISE–2005–35,10 and that no comments were received on such changes. The Commission believes that the proposed rule change would clarify that the obligations of Competitive Market Makers continue, regardless of whether the Preferred Market Maker pilot program is extended, and that such clarification does not raise any regulatory issues. For these reasons, the Commission believes that approving the Exchange Rule 804 Changes on a permanent basis is consistent with the Act. The Exchange has requested that the Commission find good cause for approving the proposed rule change prior to the thirtieth day after publication of notice thereof in the Federal Register. The Commission notes that no comments were received in connection with the approvals of the Exchange Rule 804 Changes on a pilot basis. The Commission believes that accelerating approval of the proposed rule change should allow for more efficient market operation by offering clarity to existing ISE rules. Accordingly, the Commission finds good cause, consistent with section 19(b)(2) of the Act,11 for approving the proposed rule change prior to the thirtieth day after publication of notice thereof in the Federal Register. V. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the Act,12 that the proposed rule change (SR–ISE–2005–40) is hereby approved on an accelerated basis. For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority.13 J. Lynn Taylor, Assistant Secretary. [FR Doc.

In case of an aviation disaster, airlines would be required to provide the information to the Department of State and, in certain instances, to the National Transportation Safety Board. Each carrier would develop its own collection system. The Passenger Manifest Information, Final Rule (14 CFR 243), was published in the Federal Register, Vol. 63, No. 32 (February 18, 1998). The rule was effective March 20, 1998. Respondents: U.S. air carriers, foreign air carriers, travel agents and air travelers. Estimated Total Burden on Respondents: 1.05 million hours. Estimated Respondents: 23,245 (excluding air travelers). Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the continued collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Department, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Department’s estimate of the burden of the current information collection; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information being collected, and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All responses to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will also become a matter of public record. Issued in Washington, DC on October 13, 2005.

SUMMARY: As authorized by section 5508 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU), the U.S. DOT/FHWA is interested in working with eligible State and local governments and one or more private sector partners to build upon the Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure Program (ITIP) that began under the provisions of section 5117(b)(3) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA–21). The SAFETEA–LU provides for the extension and further expansion of the ITIP program under the Transportation Technology Innovation and Demonstration Program (TTID), a new 2-part program that would advance the deployment of an operational intelligent transportation infrastructure system, through measurement of various transportation system parameters, to simultaneously aid in local transportation planning and analysis activities, while also supporting national monitoring of traffic congestion levels. The purpose of this program is threefold: Addressing national, local, and commercial data needs through enhancement of surveillance and data management capabilities in major metropolitan areas. This involves integration of data from existing surveillance infrastructure, and strategic deployment of supplemental surveillance infrastructure to support the provision of both real-time and archived roadway system performance data. At the national level, the goal is to develop an ability to measure the operating performance of the roadway system across the nation. Made available locally, such roadway system performance data can be used to assist in local system planning, evaluation, and management activities.

To achieve these objectives, the U.S. DOT/FHWA is seeking expressions of consent from eligible State and/or local transportation agencies/organizations interested in forming a public-private partnership, with a private partner that has either been pre-selected, or that will be selected, by the U.S. DOT/FHWA, to participate in the TTID program. DATES: Expressions of consent to participate must be received by 4 p.m., e.t., February 6, 2006. ADDRESSES: Expressions of consent to participate should be submitted directly to the Federal Highway Administration, Office of Transportation Management, HOTM–1, Attention: Chung Eng, 400 Seventh St., SW., Room 3404, Washington, DC 20590.

Office hours are from 7:45 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., e.t., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The ITIP program has its origin in section 5117(b)(3) of the TEA–21 (Pub. L. 105–178, as amended by title IX of Pub. L. 105–206), which required private technology commercialization initiatives as part of a program to ‘‘advance the deployment of an operational intelligent transportation infrastructure system for the measurement of various transportation system activities to aid in the transportation planning and analysis while making a significant contribution to the ITS program.’’ To that end, the U.S. DOT/FHWA retained a private sector Consortium consisting of Signal Corporation (now a part of General Dynamics); Traffic.com; Michael Baker Jr., Inc.; L.R Kimball & Associates, Inc.; and PB Farradyne, Inc. to experiment with the collection and archiving of performance monitoring data that would ultimately be used to measure national system performance while also using this data for commercial traveler information purposes. The successful testing of this public-private partnership in the two pilot cities of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania led to a $50 E:\FR\FM\19OCN1.SGM 19OCN1
