Independence Avenue SW., Room 806,
Washington, DC 20591; Telephone (202)
267–8442.
Discussion: Pursuant to 14 CFR
120.109(b), the FAA Administrator’s
decision on whether to change the
minimum annual random drug testing
rate is based on the reported random
drug test positive rate for the entire
aviation industry. If the reported
random drug test positive rate is less
than 1.00%, the Administrator may
continue the minimum random drug
testing rate at 25%. In 2012, the random
drug test positive rate was 0.456%.
Therefore, the minimum random drug
testing rate will remain at 25% for
calendar year 2014.
Similarly, 14 CFR § 120.217(c),
requires the decision on the minimum
annual random alcohol testing rate to be
based on the random alcohol test
violation rate. If the violation rate
remains less than 0.50%, the
Administrator may continue the
minimum random alcohol testing rate at
10%. In 2012, the random alcohol test
violation rate was 0.132%. Therefore,
the minimum random alcohol testing
rate will remain at 10% for calendar
year 2014.
If you
have questions about how the annual
random testing percentage rates are
determined please refer to the Code of
Federal Regulations Title 14, section
120.109(b) (for drug testing), and
120.217(c) (for alcohol testing).

Title: Drug Offender’s Drivers License
Suspension Certification.
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00103
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
OMB Control #: 2125–0579.
Background: States are legally
required to enact and enforce laws that
revoke or suspend the drivers licenses
of any individual convicted of a drug
offense and to make annual
certifications to the FHWA on their
actions. The implementing regulations
of the Department of Transportation and
Related Agencies Appropriation Act,
1993 (Pub. L. 102–388, October 6, 1992)
require annual certifications by the
Governors. In this regard, the State must
submit by January 1 of each year either
a written certification, signed by the
Governor, stating that the State is in
compliance with 23 U.S.C. 159; or a
written certification stating that the
Governor is opposed to the enactment or
enforcement, and that the State
legislature has adopted a resolution
expressing its opposition to 23 U.S.C.
159.
Beginning in Fiscal Year 1996, States’
failure to comply by October 1 of each
fiscal year resulted in a withholding
penalty of 10 percent from major
categories of Federal-aid funds (i.e.,
National Highway System, Surface
Transportation Program and the
Interstate Maintenance Program) from
States’ apportionments for the fiscal
year. Any funds withheld in Fiscal Year
1996 and thereafter cannot be restored
and will be redistributed.
Respondents: Each of the 50 SDOTs,
the District of Columbia, and the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: Annual average of 5 hours for
each respondent.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 260 total annual burden hours.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended;
and 49 CFR 1.48.

Title: Eisenhower Transportation
Fellowship Program.
OMB Control #: 2125–0617.
Background: The Eisenhower
Transportation Fellowship Program is
comprised of two programs, the
Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship
and the National Highway Institute
(NHI). The purpose of the Eisenhower
Transportation Fellowship is to advance
transportation education and research,
and attract qualified students to the
field of transportation. The Eisenhower
Transportation Fellowship allows for
the collection and analysis of vital
program information from student
transportation education programs, also
serving as a management tool to
measure program performance and
evaluate effectiveness in meeting
Federal intent and workforce
development common goals and
objectives. An application form is used
to collect basic information from the

student to determine eligibility and
qualifications for fellowship.
The NHI calls for the development
and delivery of courses for the
transportation community and requires
the involvement and satisfaction
measurement of transportation partners.
One vital component involved in
reaching those goals is providing
training pertaining to highway
activities, making sure that
professionals and members of the public
have access to the best, most accurate
information. Towards this goal, the NHI
develops and implements applicable
training programs. To manage this
increasingly complex task and to make
the training process more accessible and
useful, NHI has automated an online
training management tool—the NHI
Web Portal. The training evaluation and
registration forms collect basic
participant data for record keeping and
basic course and instructor evaluation
information for customer feedback about
what NHI is doing well and what we
need to improve.
Respondents: Approximately 200
students submit applications for the
Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship
and approximately 20,000 students for
the NHI.
Frequency: The Eisenhower
Transportation Fellowship frequency is
annually. The NHI is by learning
session.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: The estimated burden to
complete the application for the
Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship
is 3 hrs, 600 hrs annually. The estimated
burden to complete each training
evaluation and registration for the NHI
form is 3 minutes, 1000 hrs annually.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: Approximately 1,600 hours
annually.

of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended;
