SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title:
National Census of Ferry Operators
(NCFO).
Type of Request: Approval of an
information collection.
Affected Public: There are
approximately 260 ferry operators
nationwide.
Abstract: The Transportation Equity
Act for the 21st Century (TEA–21) (Pub.
L. 105–178), section 1207(c), directed
the Secretary of Transportation to
conduct a study of ferry transportation
in the United States and its possessions.
In 2000, the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) Office of
Intermodal and Statewide Planning
conducted a survey of approximately
250 ferry operators to identify: (1)
Existing ferry operations including the
location and routes served; (2) source
and amount, if any, of funds derived
from Federal, State, or local
governments supporting ferry
construction or operations; (3) potential
domestic ferry routes in the United
States and its possessions and to
develop information on those routes;
and (4) potential for use of high speed
ferry services and alternative-fueled
ferry services. The Safe, Accountable,
Flexible Efficient Transportation Equity
Act—A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–
LU) Public Law 109–59, Section
1801(e)) required that the Secretary,
acting through the BTS, establish and
maintain a national ferry database
containing current information
regarding routes, vessels, passengers
and vehicles carried, funding sources
and such other information as the
Secretary considers useful.
The newly enacted MAP–21
legislation (Pub. L. 112–141, section
1121(b)), requires that the NCFO
database as previously defined in
SAFETEA–LU: (1) Include ‘‘any Federal,
State, and local government funding
sources;’’ and (2) ‘‘ensure that the
database is consistent with the national
transit database maintained by the
Federal Transit Administration.’’ To
that end, a revised data collection form
has been submitted to OMB for
approval. Items removed from the old
form include those designed to target

ridership and terminal information that
typically produce unreliable and/or
incomplete data, and were not
specifically required by law to be
maintained as a part of the NCFO
database. These items include segment
data related to peak season (q12), daily
passenger surges (q13), weekday
passenger surges (q14), weekend
passenger surges (q15), and other
terminal operations (q16). Questions 2
through 5 of the old form were also
refined to better meet the MAP–21
requirements. The concept of public or
private ownership was also extended to
individual vessel and terminals, and
rate regulation to individual route
segments. Finally, vessel and terminal
items were refined or added to achieve
content consistency with the National
Transit Database.
Data Confidentiality Provisions: The
National Census of Ferry Operators may
collect confidential business
information. The confidentiality of these
data will be protected under 49 CFR
7.17. In accordance with this regulation,
only statistical and non-sensitive
business information will be made
available through publications and
public use data files. The statistical
public use data are intended to provide
an aggregated source of information on
ferry boat operations nationwide.
Business sensitive information may be
shared with FHWA to support MAP–21
funding allocations.
Frequency: The survey will be
conducted every other year beginning in
2013.
Estimated Burden: The total annual
burden (in the year that the survey is
conducted) is estimated to be just less
than 130 hours (that is 30 minutes per
respondent for 260 respondents equals
7,800 minutes).
Response to Comments: A 60 day
notice requesting public comment was
issued in the Federal Register on May
2, 2013. No comments were received.
Public Comments Invited: Interested
parties are invited to send comments
regarding any aspect of this information
collection, including, but not limited to:
(1) The necessity and utility of the
information collection for the proper
performance of the functions of the
DOT; (2) the accuracy of the estimated
burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the collected
information; and (4) ways to minimize
the collection burden without reducing
the quality of the collected information.
