Agency Information Collection
Activities; Revision and Renewal of a
Currently Approved Information
Collection: OMB Control No. 2126–
0017 (Financial Responsibility—Motor
Carriers, Freight Forwarders and
Brokers)
AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
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 its
review and approval. The FMCSA
requests OMB approval to revise and
renew a currently-approved ICR
entitled, ‘‘Financial Responsibility,
Trucking and Freight Forwarding,’’ to
reflect an increase in burden hours due
to an increase in the estimated number
of annual responses. In addition, the
title of the ICR is being changed to
‘‘Financial Responsibility—Motor
Carriers, Freight Forwarders and
Brokers,’’ to better describe its purpose.
This ICR sets forth the financial
responsibility documentation
requirements for motor carriers
(property and passenger), freight
forwarders and property brokers so they
can maintain the minimum levels of
financial responsibility required under
the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations (FMCSRs) to operate in
interstate, foreign or intrastate
commerce. On November 24, 2008,
FMCSA published a Federal Register
notice allowing for a 60-day comment
period on the ICR. No comments were
received.
DATES: Please send your comments by
March 9, 2009. OMB must receive your
comments by this date in order to act
quickly on the ICR.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
