Collection Number Two Title: System Diagram Maps (or, in the case of small carriers, the alternative narrative description of rail system). OMB Control Number: 2140–0003. Form Number: None. Type of Review: Extension without change. Respondents: Common carrier freight railroads that are either new or reporting changes in the status of one or more of their rail lines. Number of Respondents: 3. Estimated Time per Response: 7.1 hours, based on average time reported in informal survey of respondents conducted in 2009. Frequency of Response: 1. Total Annual Burden Hours: 21 hours. Total Annualized Non-Hourly Cost: None have been identified. Needs and Uses: Under 49 CFR 1152.10–1152.13, all railroads subject to the Board’s jurisdiction are required to keep current system diagram maps (SDMs) on file, or alternatively in the case of a Class III carrier (a carrier with assets of not more than $20 million in 1991 dollars), to submit the same information in narrative form. The information sought in this collection identifies all lines in a particular railroad’s system, categorized to indicate the likelihood that service on a particular line will be abandoned and/ or whether service on a line is currently provided under the financial assistance provisions of 49 U.S.C. 10904. Carriers are obligated to amend these maps as necessary to update the SDM or description as line designations change. The Board uses this information to facilitate reasoned decision making. In addition, this information, which is available to the public from the carrier by request, 49 CFR 1152.12(c)(3), may serve as notice to the shipping public of the carrier’s intent to abandon or retain a line. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA, a Federal agency conducting or sponsoring a collection of information must display a currently valid OMB control number. A collection of information, which is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c), includes agency requirements that persons submit reports, keep records, or provide information to the agency, third parties, or the public. A 60-day notice and request for comments regarding the collection described above was published on Nov. 12, 2009 (74 FR 58368). Section 3507(b) of the PRA VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:07 Mar 01, 2010 Jkt 220001 requires, concurrent with an agency’s submitting a collection to OMB for approval, a 30-day notice and comment period, through publication in the Federal Register, concerning each proposed collection of information, including each proposed extension of an existing collection of information.

transportation connectivity needs on the west side of the Salt Lake 
Valley in the area bounded by 6200 South, 4700 South, Bangerter Highway 
and Redwood Road.
    To provide for local and regional travel demands, the regional

Organization, Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC), has identified the 
need for an improved transportation system in the study area. 
Alternatives under consideration include (1) taking no action (no-
build); (2) transportation system management/travel demand management; 
and (3) build alternatives to be considered include, but are not 
limited to: (1) A collector roadway system; (2) addition of a grade-
separated interchange at 5400 South and I-215 and/or improvements to 
adjacent grade-separated interchanges; (3) arterial roadway capacity 
and operational improvements; (4) transit; (5) combinations of any of 
the above; and (6) other feasible alternatives identified during the 
scoping process.
    The public, as well as Federal, State, and local agencies, will be 
invited to participate in project scoping to ensure that a full range 
of alternatives is considered and that all appropriate environmental 
issues and resources are evaluated. The scoping process will include 
opportunities to provide comments on the purpose and need for the 
project, potential alternatives, and social, economic, and 
environmental issues of concern. Letters describing the proposed action 
and soliciting comments will be sent to appropriate Federal, State, and 
local agencies, and to private organizations and citizens who have 
previously expressed or are known to have interest in this proposal.
    The public will be invited to participate in scoping meeting which 
will be held in an open house format at locations and dates to be 
determined. In addition, a public hearing will be held following the 
release of the draft EIS. The draft EIS will be available for public 
and agency review and comment before the public hearing. Public notice 
advertisements, direct mailings, and other means of notification will
