Agency Information Collection
Activities; Revision of an Approved
Information Collection: Training
Certification for Drivers of Longer
Combination Vehicles
Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice; request for information.
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
FMCSA announces its plan to submit
the Information Collection Request (ICR)
described below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. The ICR is titled,
‘‘Training Certification for Drivers of
Longer Combination Vehicles (LCVs).’’
This ICR is necessary because the
training certificate serves as proof that a
driver has successfully completed the
training required before he or she may
operate an LCV on the Nation’s
highways. The hiring motor carrier is
required to maintain a copy of the
training certificate in the LCV driver’s
qualification file. The document is
subject to review by Federal or State
enforcement officials. On June 28, 2007,
FMCSA published a Federal Register
notice allowing for a 60-day comment

period on the ICR. One comment was
received.
DATES: Please send your comments by
October 26, 2007. OMB must receive
your comments by this date in order to
act quickly on the ICR.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725
Seventeenth Street, NW., Washington,
DC 20503, Attention: DOT/FMCSA Desk
Officer.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Robert F. Schultz, Jr., Transportation
Specialist, FMCSA, Telephone: 202–
366–2718; e-mail: buz.schultz@dot.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Training Certification for
Drivers of Longer Combination Vehicles.
OMB Control Number: 2126–0026.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently-approved information
collection.
Respondents: Drivers who have
completed the required LCV training
and driver instructors responsible for
conducting the required LCV training.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,200 drivers who complete the required
LCV training each year; 6 driver
instructors who must document their
qualifications to train new LCV drivers.
Estimated Time per Response: 10
minutes for LCV drivers; 10 to 15
minutes for various LCV instructors.
Expiration Date: September 30, 2007.
Frequency of Response: Annual.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 203
hours. The FMCSA estimates that 10
minutes would be needed for newly
certified LCV drivers to fulfill the
information collection requirement,
resulting in an annual information
collection burden of 200 hours [1,200
LCV drivers × 10 minutes/60 minutes =
200 hours]. The estimated annual
burden associated with instructor
certification would be 3 burden hours
[(2 classroom instructors × 10 minutes =
20 minutes) + (4 skills instructors × 15
minutes = 60 minutes) + (6 new
instructors × 15 minutes administrative
burden per instructor certification = 90
minutes) = 170 minutes/60 minutes = 3
burden hours].
Background: Section 4007(b) of the
Motor Carrier Act of 1991 (Title IV of
the Intermodal Surface Transportation
Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA), Public
Law 102–240, 105 Stat. 1914, 2152; 49
U.S.C. 31307) required the Secretary of
Transportation to establish Federal
minimum training requirements for
drivers of LCVs. The responsibility for
implementing the statutory requirement
was subsequently delegated to FMCSA
(49 CFR 1.73). On March 30, 2004, the
PO 00000
Frm 00073
Fmt 4703

FMCSA, in a final rule entitled,
‘‘Minimum Training Requirements for
Longer Combination Vehicle (LCV)
Operators and LCV Driver-Instructor
Requirements,’’ adopted implementing
regulations for minimum training
requirements for the operators of LCVs
(69 FR 16722).
The 2004 final rule created an
information collection burden
concerning the certification of new,
current and non-grandfathered LCV
drivers, as well as the certification of
LCV driver-instructors. The
implementing regulations define an LCV
as any combination of a truck-tractor
and two or more semi-trailers or trailers,
which operate on the National System
of Interstate and Defense Highways (as
defined in 23 CFR 470.107) with a gross
vehicle weight greater than 80,000
pounds (49 CFR 380.105). The purpose
of this rule is to enhance the safety of
LCV operations on our nation’s
highways.
Drivers are required to present the
training certificate to prospective
employers to prove they are certified to
drive LCVs. Motor carriers must not
allow drivers to operate LCVs without
ensuring the drivers have been properly
trained in accordance with the
requirements of 49 CFR part 380. Motor
carriers must maintain a copy of the
LCV training certification form in the
driver qualification file (49 CFR
380.401(b)). Motor carriers must be able
to show Federal or State enforcement
officials that drivers responsible for
operating such LCVs are certified to do
so, based on the training certificate in
the driver qualification file.
On June 28, 2007 (72 FR 35537),
FMCSA published a Federal Register
notice allowing for a 60-day comment
period on the ICR. One comment was
received. The commenter was a truck
driver who pointed out that the skills of
a truck driver are best learned by
experience, not formal training. He also
pointed out that the motor carrier is
required to check the safety history of a
new employee, and that such an
analysis will be more helpful in
evaluating the skill level of a driver than
a certificate certifying participation in
the requisite training. The commenter
did not discuss the information
collection aspects of the LCV rules.
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (1)
Whether the proposed collection is
necessary for the performance of
FMCSA’s functions; (2) the accuracy of
the estimated burden; (3) ways for the
FMCSA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected
information; and (4) ways that the
