Title: Bus Testing Program (OMB Number 2132–0550). Background: 49 U.S.C. Section 5323(c) provides that no Federal funds appropriated or made available after September 30, 1989, may be obligated or expended for the acquisition of a new bus model (including any model using alternative fuels) unless the bus has been tested at the Bus Testing Center (Center) in Altoona, Pennsylvania. 49 U.S.C. Section 5318(a) further specifies that each new bus model is to be tested for maintainability, reliability, safety, performance (including braking performance), structural integrity, fuel economy, emissions, and noise. The operator of the Bus Testing Center, the Pennsylvania Transportation Institute (PTI), has entered into a cooperative agreement with FTA. PTI operates and maintains the Center, and establishes and collects fees for the testing of the vehicles at the facility. Upon completion of the testing of the vehicle at the Center, a test report is provided to the manufacturer of the new bus model. The bus manufacturer certifies to an FTA grantee that the bus the grantee is purchasing has been tested at the Center. Also, grantees about to purchase a bus use this report to assist them in making their purchasing decisions. PTI maintains a reference file for all the test reports which are made available to the public. Respondents: Bus manufacturers. Estimated Annual Burden on Respondents: 30 testing determinations @ 3 hours each; 18 tests @ 3 hours each; and 520 requirements @ 0.5 hours each. Estimated Total Annual Burden: 404 hours. Frequency: On occasion. Issued: May 3, 2011. Ann M. Linnertz, Associate Administrator for Administration.

(the line).2 The line traverses United States Postal Service Zip Codes 89405, 96113, 96130, and 96136. LVR has been advised that segments of the line may contain Federally granted rights-of-way. Any documentation in LVR’s possession will be made available promptly to those requesting it. The interest of railroad employees will be protected by the conditions set forth in Oregon Short Line Railroad— Abandonment Portion Goshen Branch Between Firth & Ammon, In Bingham & Bonneville Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C. 91 (1979). By issuance of this notice, the Board is instituting an exemption proceeding pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 10502(b). A final decision will be issued by August 8, 2011. Any offer of financial assistance (OFA) under 49 CFR 1152.27(b)(2) will be due no later than 10 days after service of a decision granting the petition for exemption. Each OFA must be accompanied by a $1,500 filing fee. See 49 CFR 1002.2(f)(25). All interested persons should be aware that, following abandonment of rail service and salvage of the line, the line may be suitable for other public use, including interim trail use.

The description of the rail line in that proceeding also referenced a .57-mile line in Lassen County, from milepost 358.68 to milepost 359.25 near Wendel, which appears to be included within the mileposts described in the line. LVR states that abandonment of the line was not consummated and LVR acquired the line pursuant to a notice of exemption in Lassen Valley Railway—Acquisition & Operation Exemption—Union Pacific Railroad, FD 35306 (STB served Dec. 3, 2009).
