Quality Act (‘‘CEQA’’) for the Otay Mesa
Conveyance System Project that would
convey desalinated seawater from the
new border crossing approximately four
miles northeast to Otay Water’s Roll
Reservoir in San Diego County (‘‘the
Project’’). The Project would provide a
new water supply source from the U.S.Mexico border to Otay Water’s potable
water system and ultimately delivered
to end-user customers in the United
States which Otay Water contends will
reduce the strain and demand on the
overall region’s limited water supply.’’

Title: Physical Fitness and Driving
Performance.
Form No.: NHTSA Form 1227.
Type of Review: Regular.
Respondents: Drivers age 70 and older
who have responded to a solicitation for
participation in a study of aging,
physical fitness, and driving safety and
have initiated a phone call expressing
their interest in study participation.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
An estimated that 270 respondents who
contact researchers in response to
descriptive solicitations.
Estimated Time per Response: The
estimated time to respond to questions
in the telephone conversations is 15
minutes for each conversation with a
respondent.
Total Estimated Annual Burden
Hours: 67.5 hours.

Abstract: Older adults comprise an
increasing proportion of the (driving)
population and there is concern about
the consequences of declining physical
abilities such as strength, flexibility, and
range of motion on the safe operation of
motor vehicles. Previous research
indicates that gains in physical fitness
improve a number of abilities important
for safe driving. NHTSA needs to learn
more about these relationships between
fitness and driving performance to
support the development of
recommendations and educational
materials aimed at improving older
driver safety. The objective in this
project is to assess the effect(s) of
