adopt or to show evidence of being
already in effect in order to qualify or
remain qualified for participation in the
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).

National Transit Database: Amendment
to Reporting Requirements and NonSubstantive Technical Changes
Federal Transit Administration
(FTA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice announces the
final rule requiring recipients of grants
under 49 U.S.C. 5311, Formula Grants
for Other Than Urbanized Areas
(Nonurbanized Area Formula Grants,) to
report annual data to the National
Transit Database (NTD) as a condition
for receiving these grants. In addition,
this final rule makes non-substantive
changes, technical corrections, and
conforming amendments to the
‘‘National Transit Database’’ regulation.
DATES: Effective Date: January 7, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
program issues: John D. Giorgis, Office
of Budget and Policy, (202) 366–5430

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
rmajette on PROD1PC64 with RULES
I. Background
The National Transit Database (NTD)
is FTA’s primary national database for
statistics on the transit industry. Section
3033 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible,
Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A
Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU) [Pub.
L. 109–59 (August 10, 2005)] amended
the NTD provisions under 49 U.S.C.
5335 to require that each recipient
receiving Formula Grants for Other
Than Urbanized Areas (Nonurbanized
Area Formula Grants), or any person
that will receive benefits directly from
these funds, must be subject to the
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:21 Dec 05, 2007
Jkt 214001
reporting and uniform systems of the
NTD. Section 5335(b) continues to
require NTD reporting for recipients of
and beneficiaries of assistance from
Urbanized Area Formula Grants.
In addition, section 3013(b) of
SAFETEA–LU amended 49 U.S.C.
5311(b)(4) to require each recipient
receiving Nonurbanized Area Formula
Grants to submit an annual report
containing information on capital
investment, operations, and service
provided with grant funds from this
program. The recipient must include the
following information in the report:
Total annual revenue; sources of
revenue; total annual operating costs;
total annual capital costs; fleet size and
type, and related facilities; revenue
vehicle miles; and ridership. The
mandatory reporting criteria will assist
FTA in understanding the effectiveness
of Nonurbanized Area Formula Grants
in improving rural public
transportation. These data are similar to
those already collected by FTA for
recipients of Urbanized Area Formula
Grants, but are streamlined for rural
recipients.
This final rule revises 49 CFR Part
630, the Uniform System of Accounts
and Reporting System, to conform with
49 U.S.C. 5335 and 5311, as amended by
sections 3033 and 3013(b) of SAFETEA–
LU.
II. Comments and FTA Response to
Comments
On March 26, 2007, FTA issued a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
that provided interested parties with the
opportunity to comment on substantive
amendments to FTA’s NTD Regulation
that would implement the annual
reporting requirements for recipients
and beneficiaries of Nonurbanized Area
Formula Grants (72 FR 14061). In this
NPRM, FTA proposed changes that
would: (1) Require recipients of
Nonurbanized Area Formula Grants to
report data to the NTD; and, (2) require
the annual reporting of rural transit data
as a condition for receiving
Nonurbanized Area Formula Grants.
The proposed rule also contained
technical corrections and conforming
amendments, such as changes to
statutory references. FTA invited
comments on the proposed substantive
amendments that would implement the
annual reporting requirements for
Nonurbanized Area Formula Grant
recipients and beneficiaries. In
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(A),
FTA did not invite comments on the
technical corrections and conforming
amendments because those changes are
‘‘interpretative’’ in nature, and FTA was
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
not required to accept or consider
comments on them.
FTA received ten comments on the
proposed substantive amendments that
would implement the annual reporting
requirements for Nonurbanized Area
Formula Grant recipients and
beneficiaries. FTA hereby responds to
these comments in the following order:
(a) General Coordination and Reporting
Concerns; (b) Failure to Report Data; (c)
Late and Incomplete Reports; (d)
Questionable Data Items; (e) Notice of
FTA action; (f) Waiver of Reporting
Requirements; (g) Proposed Appendix
A; (h) Comments on the proposed 2007
Rural NTD Module Reporting Manual;
and, (i) Additional Technical Revisions.
(a) General Reporting Concerns
Four comments expressed concern
about the burden of the proposed
reporting requirements. One commenter
strongly encouraged FTA to follow its
stated purpose to provide streamlined
reporting requirements for the rural
program. Another commenter expressed
concern that rural systems will
experience significant difficulties in
complying with reporting, which will
impact the reliability and usefulness of
the data. One commenter noted that
FTA’s historical position has been to not
be involved with subrecipients and that
data collection on individual
subrecipients is a major departure from
this practice.
FTA response: FTA is seeking the data
to comply with 49 U.S.C. 5335 and 49
U.S.C. 5311(b)(4), and the proposed
reporting requirements are largely
specified by statute. FTA notes that it is
only requiring the States to complete
and submit a one-page form for each
Section 5311 grant subrecipient, and is
only requiring Tribes that are direct
recipients of Section 5311 grants to
complete the same form. Comments on
the specific nature of the reporting
requirements, however, are outside the
scope of this rulemaking. FTA
considered these comments as part of
the process of finalizing the 2007 Rural
NTD Reporting Manual.
In response to the commenter
regarding data collection from
subrecipients, FTA notes that FTA has
the statutory authority to require
recipients to gather and report
subrecipients’ NTD data to FTA
pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 5335. Section
5335(a) states that FTA may request and
receive appropriate information for the
NTD from ‘‘any source,’’ which includes
requesting information from a
Nonurbanized Area Formula Grant
subrecipient. Moreover, Section 5335(b)
states that FTA ‘‘may award a grant
under section 5307 or 5311 only if the
