or Ms. Gina Christodoulou, Office of
Support Systems, RAD–43, Federal
Railroad Administration, 1120 Vermont
Ave., NW., Mail Stop 35, Washington,
DC 20590 (telephone: (202) 493–6139).
(These telephone numbers are not tollfree.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), Public Law 104–13, section 2,
109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised
at 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days notice to the public for
comment on information collection
activities before seeking approval for
reinstatement or renewal by OMB. 44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1),
1320.10(e)(1), 1320.12(a). Specifically,
FRA invites interested respondents to
comment on the following summary of
proposed information collection
activities regarding (i) whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
activities will have practical utility; (ii)
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; (iii) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (iv) ways for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public by
automated, electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology (e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses). See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)(i)–(iv); 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1)(i)–(iv). FRA believes that
soliciting public comment will promote
its efforts to reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information mandated
by Federal regulations. In summary,
FRA reasons that comments received
will advance three objectives: (i) Reduce
reporting burdens; (ii) ensure that it
organizes information collection
requirements in a ‘‘user friendly’’ format
to improve the use of such information;
and (iii) accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
Below is a brief summary of the
currently approved information
collection activities that FRA will
submit for clearance by OMB as
required under the PRA:
Title: Control of Alcohol and Drug
Use in Railroad Operations.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0526.
Abstract: The information collection
requirements contained in preemployment and ‘‘for cause’’ testing
regulations are intended to ensure a
sense of fairness and accuracy for
railroads and their employees. The
principal information—evidence of
unauthorized alcohol or drug use—is
used to prevent accidents by screening
personnel who perform safety-sensitive
service. FRA uses the information to
measure the level of compliance with
regulations governing the use of alcohol
or controlled substances. Elimination of
this problem is necessary to prevent
accidents, injuries, and fatalities of the
nature already experienced and further
reduce the risk of a truly catastrophic
accident. Finally, FRA analyzes the data
provided in the Management
Information System annual report to
monitor the effectiveness of a railroad’s
alcohol and drug testing program.

I. General Program Information
A. Authority
Section 3021 of the Safe, Accountable,
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity
Act—A Legacy for Users of 2005
(SAFETEA–LU) established a new
program called the ATPPL program (49
U.S.C. 5320). SAFETEA–LU authorized
$97 million in funding for the program
for FY 2006 through 2009. SAFETEA–
LU authorized $23 million FY 2007.
Availability of funding is subject to
congressional appropriations, which
have not yet been finalized for FY 2007.
No one project may receive more than
25 percent of available funds.
B. Background
Congestion in and around parks and
public lands causes traffic delays and
noise and air pollution that
substantially detract from the visitor’s
experience and the protection of natural
resources. In August 2001, the
Department of Transportation (DOT)
and DOI published a comprehensive
PO 00000
Frm 00083
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

study of alternative transportation needs
in national parks and related Federal
lands. The study identified significant
alternative transportation needs at sites
managed by the National Park Service,
the Bureau of Land Management, and
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Additionally, a supplement to this
report identified Forest Service sites
that would benefit from such services.
Section 3021 of SAFETEA–LU (49
U.S.C. 5320) addresses these needs by
establishing a new program to fund
alternative transportation projects in
national parks and other federal lands.
The goals of the program are to:
• Conserve natural, historical, and
cultural resources;
• Reduce congestion and pollution;
• Improve visitor mobility and
accessibility;
• Enhance visitor experience; and
• Ensure access to all, including
persons with disabilities.
C. Eligible Applicants
Eligible applicants are:
(1) Federal land management
agencies, including the National Park
Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service,
the Bureau of Land Management, the
Forest Service, and the Bureau of
Reclamation; and
(2) State, tribal and local governments
with jurisdiction over land in the
vicinity of an eligible area, acting with
the consent of a Federal land
management agency, alone or in
partnership with a Federal land
management agency or other
governmental or non-governmental
participant. If the applicant is a State,
tribal, or local government, a letter from
the unit(s) of the Federal land
management agency or agencies affected
expressing support for the project
should be submitted with the project
proposal.
D. Eligible Expenses
SAFETEA–LU defines alternative
transportation as ‘‘transportation by bus,
rail, or any other publicly or privately
owned conveyance that provides to the
public general or special service on a
regular basis, including sightseeing
service. Such term also includes a nonmotorized transportation system
(including the provision of facilities for
pedestrians, bicycles, and nonmotorized watercraft).’’
A qualified project is a planning or
capital project in or in the vicinity of a
Federally-owned or managed park,
refuge, or recreational area that is open
to the general public and meets the
goals of the program. Operating
expenses are not eligible under the
program. A project proposal may
