Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 242 / Friday, December 16, 2011 / Notices
might have. The following data will be
collected: demographic information on
parents/caregivers and their children;
parent/caregiver understanding of the
CPS messages shown to them; and
parent/caregiver perception of safest
behavior to follow for properly
restraining their children depending on
their children’s age. At the conclusion
of the survey, participants will receive
information on child passenger safety
and specific information regarding the
locations of inspection stations and car
seat check events that are available in
the area. An incentive will also be given
to all participants.
The participants would respond to the
proposed surveys using touch-screen
computers to reduce survey length and
minimize recording errors. No
personally identifiable information will
be collected during the surveys.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information—NHTSA was established
to reduce the number of deaths, injuries,
and economic losses resulting from
motor vehicle crashes on the Nation’s
highways. As part of this statutory
mandate, NHTSA is authorized to
conduct research as a foundation for the
development of motor vehicle standards
and traffic safety programs.
In support of this mission, NHTSA
proposes to collect information from
parents and caregivers on their
understanding and perceptions of child
passenger safety messages. The response
information is necessary to determine
the most effective CPS messages that
would influence parents and caregivers
to seek the most appropriate restraint
systems for their children (less than 13
years of age). In addition, NHTSA will
publish the findings of this research
study to provide information to States,
localities, and other interested
organizations in support of their efforts
to reduce and prevent injuries among
child occupants.
Description of the Likely Respondents
(Including Estimated Number, and
Proposed Frequency of Response to the
Collection of Information)—NHTSA
proposes to conduct computergenerated response tests with 600
parents and caregivers of young
children less than 13 years of age. Data
collection is expected to take place over
a 3 month period in the Summer and
Fall of 2012.
Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Record Keeping Burden
Resulting from the Collection of
Information—Each of the 600
participant testing sessions will last
approximately 75 minutes including the
initial introduction and instruction.
Data collection is expected to take place
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
over a three-month period during 2012.
Therefore, the estimated annual burden
is 750 hours. The participants would
not incur any reporting cost from the
information collection. The participants
also would not incur any record keeping
burden or record keeping cost from the
information collection.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. Section 3506(c)(2)(A).

LLC, Chesapeake & Albemarle Railroad
Division (NCVR), a Class III carrier, has
filed a verified notice of exemption
under 49 CFR1150.41 to amend a lease
with Norfolk Southern Railway
Company (NSR). The Lease and Option
to Purchase Agreement, dated February
28, 1990, as amended, (the Original
Lease) covers 66 miles of railroad. The
line runs between approximately
milepost NS–8.0 at Chesapeake, Va.,
and approximately milepost NS–74.00
at Edenton, N.C., including related
branch lines and trackage as defined in
the Original Lease (the Line). The Line
runs through North Hampton County,
Va., and Chowan County, N.C.
NCVR states that it and NSR have
agreed to extend the terms of the
Original Lease and to strike and render
null and void all provisions relating to
the option to purchase the Line
included in the Original Lease. NCVR
certifies that its projected annual
revenues as a result of this transaction
will not exceed those that would make
it a Class II rail carrier, but states that
its projected annual revenue will exceed
$5 million. Accordingly, NCVR is
required, at least 60 days before the
exemption is to become effective, to
post a notice of its intent to undertake
the proposed transaction at the
workplace of the employees on the
affected line, serve a copy of the notice
on the national offices of the labor
unions with employees on the affected
line, and certify to the Board that it has
done so. 49 CFR 1150.42(e).

that it posted notice of the proposed
transaction at the workplace of
employees on the Line on November 29,
2011, and that it served a copy of the
notice on the national office of
International Machinist Association of
Aerospace Workers Union on November
30, 2011. Concurrent with its notice of
exemption, NCVR filed a petition for
waiver of the 60-day notice requirement
of 1150.42(e). The Board will address
NCVR’s petition for waiver by separate
decision, and will establish in that
decision the earliest this transaction
may be consummated.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the effectiveness of
the exemption. Stay petitions must be
filed at least seven days before the
exemption becomes effective.
An original and ten copies of all
pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD
35564 (Sub-No. 1), must be filed with
