Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 24914 [E6-6316]

Download as PDF 24914 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 81 / Thursday, April 27, 2006 / Notices in determining a root cause of such event. BTS will collect close call reports submitted by railroad employees, develop an analytical database containing the reported data and other pertinent information, and protect the confidentiality of these data through its own statute (49 U.S.C. 111(i)) and the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2002 (CIPSEA). The database will be a valuable tool to railroad carriers and the FRA in their effort to identify safety issues and provide corrective measures before an accident occurs. Voluntary reporting of close calls to a confidential system can provide a tool to identify and correct weaknesses in railroad safety systems before an accident actually occurs. The C3RS demonstration project will foster a voluntary, cooperative, non-punitive environment to communicate safety concerns. Through the analysis of close calls the FRA and the railroad community will receive information about factors that may contribute to unsafe events and the error recovery mechanisms that prevented an adverse consequence from occurring. Such information can be used to develop new training programs, identify root causes of potentially adverse events, assess risk and allocate resources to address those risks more efficiently. The database will also provide other users such as rail safety researchers with valuable information regarding precursors to safety risks and contribute to research and development of intervention programs aimed at preventing accidents and fatalities. III. Request for Comments rmajette on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES BTS requests comments on any aspects of these information collections, including: (1) The accuracy of the estimated burden; (2) ways to enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (3) ways to minimize the collection burden without reducing the quality of the information collected, including additional use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Issued in Washington, DC on April 20, 2006. William Bannister, Acting Deputy Director, Bureau of Transportation Statistics, Research and Innovative Technology Administration. [FR Doc.
