SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
49 U.S.C. 5334(h) provides guidance
on the transfer of capital assets.
Specifically, if a recipient of FTA
assistance decides an asset acquired
under this chapter at least in part with
that assistance is no longer needed for
the purpose for which it was acquired,
the Secretary of Transportation may
authorize the recipient to transfer the
asset to a local governmental authority
to be used for a public purpose with no
further obligation to the Government. 49
U.S.C. 5334(h)(1).
Determinations
The Secretary may authorize a
transfer for a public purpose other than
mass transportation only if the Secretary
decides:
(A) The asset will remain in public
use for at least 5 years after the date the
asset is transferred;
(B) There is no purpose eligible for
assistance under this chapter for which
the asset should be used;
(C) The overall benefit of allowing the
transfer is greater than the interest of the
Government in liquidation and return of
the financial interest of the Government
in the asset, after considering fair
market value and other factors; and
(D) Through an appropriate screening
or survey process, that there is no
interest in acquiring the asset for

The private automobile remains by far
the most often used and most preferred
means of meeting community mobility
needs among older adults. Along with
the increase in the number of older
drivers, an increase in the driving
exposure of older adults is likely, both
in terms of the frequency of their trips
and the distances they drive. In
addition, due to increased physical
frailty, older individuals are also most
likely to be seriously injured or killed in
an automotive crash. Therefore, driver
medical review practices are likely to
assume a more prominent role in the
years ahead.
Medical review guidelines and
practices can help evaluate drivers
referred to a State motor vehicle
licensing agency for reexamination due
to concerns about unsafe driving
performance possibly resulting from
suspected age or medical condition
related impairments in visual, physical,
or mental abilities. Society has an
interest in ensuring that these medical
review guidelines and practices are in
place and are effective in reducing
motor vehicle crashes, injury, and
death.
This project will collect information
from an individual in the Medical
Review Department in each of the 50
State Driver Licensing Agencies and The
District of Columbia about their State’s
driver medical review structure and
processes. The information collected
will be used to produce a short narrative
describing each State’s medical review
structure and processes, plus several
appendices with tables displaying each
individual State’s responses to the
questions, and totals for each response.
Data will be collected, according to each
respondent’s preference, via a Microsoft
Word document distributed and
collected via email or a print version
distributed and collected via U.S. mail,
and the responses will consist primarily
of checkbox response types and fill-inthe-blank options when non-standard
checkboxes are selected. Additionally,
questionnaire respondents will be
provided with a short narrative that
describes their State’s medical review
processes, and asked to review and edit/
update the narrative as necessary to
ensure its accuracy.

the burden estimate, including
suggestions for reducing the burden, to
