[U.S. DOT Docket No. NHTSA–2007–27971]
Reports, Forms, and Recordkeeping
Requirements
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA), DOT.
ACTION: Request for public comment on
proposed collection of information.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Before a Federal agency can
collect certain information from the
public, it must receive approval from
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB). Under procedures established
by the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, before seeking OMB approval,
Federal agencies must solicit public
comment on proposed collections of
information, including extensions and
reinstatements of previously approved
collections.
This document describes one
collection of information for which
NHTSA intends to seek OMB approval.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before June 26, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments
to U.S. Department of Transportation
Dockets, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Plaza
401, Washington, DC 20590. Docket No.
NHTSA–2007–27971.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Alan Block, Contracting Officer’s
Technical Representative, Office of
Behavioral Safety Research (NTI–131),
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration, 400 Seventh Street,
SW., Room 5119, Washington, DC
20590. Mr. Block’s phone number is
202–366–6401 and his e-mail address is
Alan.Block@dot.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
before an agency submits a proposed
collection of information to OMB for
approval, it must publish a document in
the Federal Register providing a 60-day
comment period and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information. The OMB has
promulgated regulations describing
what must be included in such a
document. Under OMB’s regulations (at
5 CFR 1320.8(d)), an agency must ask
for public comment on the following:
(i) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(ii) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed

collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(iii) How to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(iv) How to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
In compliance with these
requirements, NHTSA asks public
comment on the following proposed
collection of information:
2008 National Survey of Drinking and
Driving Attitudes and Behavior
Type of Request—New information
collection requirement.
OMB Clearance Number—None.
Form Number—This collection of
information uses no standard forms.
Requested Expiration Date of
Approval—December 31, 2009.
Summary of the Collection of
Information—NHTSA proposes to
conduct a year 2008 National Survey of
Drinking and Driving Attitudes and
Behavior by telephone among a national
probability sample of 6,000 adults (age
16 and older). Participation by
respondents would be voluntary. Survey
topics would include frequency of
drinking and driving and of riding with
a driver who has been drinking, ways to
prevent drinking and driving,
enforcement of drinking and driving
laws, and understanding of Blood
Alcohol Concentration (BAC) levels and
legal limits.
In conducting the proposed survey,
the interviewers would use computerassisted telephone interviewing to
reduce interview length and minimize
recording errors. A Spanish-language
translation and bilingual interviewers
would be used to minimize language
barriers to participation. The proposed
survey would be anonymous; the survey
would not collect any personal
information that would allow anyone to
identify respondents. Participant names
would not be collected during the
interview and the telephone number
used to reach the respondent would be
separated from the data record prior to
its entry into the analytical database.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information—The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration’s
(NHTSA) mission is to save lives,
prevent injuries, and reduce healthcare
and other economic costs associated
with motor vehicle crashes. The

27APN1
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 81 / Friday April 27, 2007 / Notices
agency’s goal is to reduce the rate of
fatalities in high (0.08+) Blood Alcohol
Concentration (BAC) crashes per 100
million vehicle miles traveled from 0.51
in 2003 to 0.48 in 2008. In order to plan
and evaluate programs intended to
reduce alcohol-impaired driving,
NHTSA needs to periodically update its
knowledge and understanding of the
public’s attitudes and behaviors with
respect to drinking and driving. NHTSA
began measuring the driving age
public’s attitudes and behaviors
regarding drinking and driving in 1991.
The proposed study, to be administered
in the 1st quarter of 2008, and the eighth
in this series of surveys, will collect
data on topics included in the first
seven studies (and some additional
topics), including: frequency of drinking
and driving and of riding with a driver
who has been drinking, ways to prevent
drinking and driving, enforcement of
drinking and driving laws, and
understanding of BAC levels and legal
limits.
The findings from this proposed
collection of information will assist
NHTSA in addressing the problem of
alcohol-impaired driving and in
formulating programs and
recommendations to Congress. NHTSA
will use the findings to help focus
current programs and activities to
achieve the greatest benefit, to develop
new programs to decrease the likelihood
of drinking and driving, and to provide
informational support to States,
localities, and law enforcement agencies
that will aid them in their efforts to
reduce drinking and driving crashes and
injuries.
Description of the Likely Respondents
(Including Estimated Number, and
Proposed Frequency of Response to the
Collection of Information)—Under this
proposed effort, the Contractor would
conduct a survey pretest and final
survey administration. A total of 18
telephone pretest interviews averaging
20 minutes in length would be
administered to test the computer
programming of the questionnaire, and
to determine if any last adjustments to
the questionnaire are needed. Following
any revisions carried out as a result of
the pretest, the Contractor would
conduct telephone interviews averaging
approximately 20 minutes in length
with 6,000 randomly selected members
of the general public age 16 and older
in telephone households. For nondrinkers and non-drivers the interview
will average below 20 minutes, while
for drinker-drivers it will average
slightly over 20 minutes. The
respondent sample would be selected
from all 50 States plus the District of
Columbia. Interviews would be
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
conducted with persons at residential
phone numbers selected through
random digit dialing. Businesses are
ineligible for the sample and would not
be interviewed. No more than one
respondent would be selected per
household. Each member of the sample
would complete one interview.
Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Record Keeping Burden
Resulting from the Collection of
Information—NHTSA estimates that the
pretest interviews would require an
average of 20 minutes apiece or a total
of 6 hours for the 18 respondents. Each
respondent in the final survey sample
would require an average of 20 minutes
to complete the telephone interview or
a total of 2,000 hours for the 6,000
respondents. Thus, the number of
estimated reporting burden hours a year
on the general public would be 2,006 for
the proposed survey (6 for the pretest,
and 2000 for the final survey
administration). The respondents would
not incur any reporting cost from the
information collection. The respondents
also would not incur any record keeping
burden or record keeping cost from the
information collection.

Utah Transit Authority—Acquisition
Exemption—Union Pacific Railroad
Company
Utah Transit Authority (UTA), a
noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of
exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 1 to
acquire from Union Pacific Railroad
Company (UP) the ‘‘remaining width’’ 2
of a portion of the Bingham Industrial
Lead (Lead) extending from milepost
0.0. at Midvale to milepost 6.60 at
Bagley, in Salt Lake County, UT. UTA
1 The notice was filed on March 27, 2007, and,
at the Board’s request, was supplemented on April
16, 2007, with a letter describing the trackage to be
acquired. April 16, 2007 will be considered the
filing date and the basis for all due dates.
2 According to UTA, the remaining width is a 35foot wide strip of land, the portion of the right-ofway on which the rail and supporting operating
infrastructure are located. UTA previously acquired
a 35-foot wide strip of the Bingham Industrial Lead
right-of-way. See Utah Transit Authority—
Acquisition Exemption—Certain Assets of Union
Pacific Railroad Company, STB Finance Docket No.
34170 (STB served May 22, 2002).

attached a copy of the agreement with
UP, captioned ‘‘Eighth Amendment to
Purchase and Sale Agreement.’’ UTA
maintains that the acquisition does not
require Board authorization and, on
April 20, 2007, filed a motion to dismiss
the notice of exemption and also filed
a copy of its Administration and
Coordination Agreement with Savage
Bingham & Garfield Railroad Company
(SBGR), the carrier that is to operate the
Lead.
Previously, on February 27, 2007,
SBGR, a noncarrier, invoked the class
exemption to acquire from UP and
operate freight easements upon, over,
and across a number of rail lines and
track, including the Lead between
milepost 0.18 at Midvale and milepost
6.60 at Bagley Spur. See Savage
Bingham & Garfield Railroad
Company—Acquisition and Operation
Exemption, STB Finance Docket No.
35002, served and published in the
Federal Register on March 15, 2007 (72
FR 12261) (Savage Bingham).
In the notice of exemption, SBGR
stated that in a separate transaction UP
would: (1) Convey the right-of-way of
the Lead to UTA; (2) reserve an
operating easement over the Lead; and
(3) convey the operating easement over
the Lead to SBGR. SBGR also stated that
it would enter into an Administration
and Coordination Agreement with UTA
to govern the rail freight services SBGR
would provide over the Lead during
specified periods when UTA’s planned
passenger light rail services would
operate.3
UTA certifies that its projected
revenues as a result of this transaction
will not exceed those that would qualify
it as a Class III rail carrier.
The earliest this transaction may be
consummated is May 16, 2007, the
effective date of the notice of
exemption, as supplemented (30 days
after the exemption was filed).
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
3 That exemption was scheduled to become
effective on March 29, 2007, but was stayed at the
request of Utah Shipper Coalition (Coalition) in a
decision served on March 28, 2007, pending further
action by the Board. The Board stated that UTA
must obtain Board approval or a finding that Board
approval is not needed for it to acquire the Lead
before SBGR may proceed with the acquisition in
STB Finance Docket No. 35002. Additionally, the
Board stated that UTA’s submission should include
a copy of the Administration and Coordination
Agreement it plans to enter into with SBGR and a
copy of any other related agreements not previously
submitted that would allow the Board to ascertain
whether the proposed transaction would allow
SBGR to fulfill the common carrier obligation it
seeks to acquire.

total of 6 hours for the 18 respondents. Each respondent in the final
survey sample would require an average of 20 minutes to complete the
telephone interview or a total of 2,000 hours for the 6,000
respondents. Thus, the number of estimated reporting burden hours a
year on the general public would be 2,006 for the proposed survey (6
for the pretest, and 2000 for the final survey administration). The
respondents would not incur any reporting cost from the information
collection. The respondents also would not incur any record keeping
burden or record keeping cost from the information collection.
