Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 152 / Wednesday, August 9, 2017 / Notices
to determine the effects of CBR on DUI
recidivism, as well as information on
the types of CBR policies currently in
place. This information will be useful to
States interested in instituting or
changing CBR policies in their own
interlock programs, to help reduce
deaths and injuries associated with DUI.
The data collected will be used to assist
NHTSA in its ongoing responsibilities
for: (a) Developing an accurate
understanding of potential traffic safety
interventions on a national scale; (b)
providing information to NHTSA’s
partners involved in improving public
safety; and (c) providing sound
scientific reports on NHTSA’s activities
to other public safety researchers.
Description of the Likely Respondents
(Including Estimated Number, and
Proposed Frequency of Response to the
Collection of Information)—NHTSA has
identified 31 States that conduct some
type of CBR of AIIDs. The number of
participants will vary for each State. We
estimate an average of three participants
per State. Most participants will be State
officials and these individuals will
provide the majority of the necessary
information for each State. We
anticipate that in some instances State
officials will refer us to representatives
of interlock providers to obtain data not
available to the State official. The data
to be collected is administrative in
nature. No personally identifiable data
will be collected. We will not be
collecting data that is commonly
considered sensitive or private.
Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Record Keeping Burden
Resulting from the Collection of
Information—The total estimated
annual burden is approximately 46.5
hours for the information collection.
NHTSA estimates that for the 31 states
identified, an average of approximately
60 minutes per state will be needed to
obtain the information necessary (1860
minutes total). These data collection
activities will be used to gain as
complete an understanding of the CBR
programs in each state as possible. A
report will be created for each state and
shared with state officials to verify its
accuracy. NHTSA estimates 60 minutes
to read and correct the report and return
it by email (1860 minutes total). In
many States more than one individual
will review the report. NHTSA
estimates an average of two individuals
from each state to read and correct the
report and return it by email. In total,
NHTSA estimates a total burden of 3720
minutes, or 62 hours, for participants in
States to provide the necessary
information.

Reports, Forms, and Record Keeping
Requirements: Agency Information
Collection Activity Under OMB Review
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA), U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
In compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this
notice announces that the Information
Collection Request (ICR) abstracted
below will be submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and comment. The ICR describes
the nature of the information collection
and the expected burden. The Federal
Register notice with a 60-day comment
period was published on December 7,
2016.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before September 8, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Send comments, within 30
days, to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 17th
Street NW., Washington, DC 20503,
Attention NHTSA Desk Officer.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Programs (NPD–210), National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Education on Proper Use of Seat
Belts on School Buses.
OMB Control Number: None.
Type of Request: New information
collection requirement.
Type of Review: Regular.
Abstract: Between 2004 and 2015, an
average of six school-age children per
year were killed in collisions while
riding in a school bus. The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
is undertaking a project to understand
the factors considered by state and local
agencies when deciding whether to
require seat belts on school buses and
the funding mechanisms that are used to
SUMMARY:

pay for seat belt installation. To
accomplish this, NHTSA proposes to
conduct discussions and informal
interviews to identify school districts
that have seat belts on school buses and
to gather information on both
implementation and funding
mechanisms. NHTSA also recognizes
the importance of reaching out to school
districts who do not currently require
seat belts in order to gain a broader
picture of the priorities and challenges
that jurisdictions face. Therefore,
NHTSA will also be gathering feedback
from school districts that are not
considering implementation, or are
considering but struggling to
implement, as their perspectives will be
helpful in developing model policies.
These discussions will be held via
telephone, email, and/or in-person
throughout the course of the project.
The findings will be used to develop a
model policy and a best practices guide
to assist jurisdictions that are
considering a requirement regarding
seat belts on school buses.
The project also aims to obtain data
related to the effect that seat belt use
may have on school bus driver
distraction. Therefore, NHTSA proposes
to conduct a Web-based survey to gather
information about bus driver distraction
as related to student behavior and seat
belt use to see if the use of seat belts has
influenced disruptive behavior. The
project will culminate with a report to
explain the findings.
Affected Public: In order to identify
school districts who have implemented,
or are planning to implement, seat belts
on their school buses, NHTSA will
reach out to organizations such as the
National Association of State Directors
of Pupil Transportation Services
(NASDPTS), the National Association of
Pupil Transportation (NAPT), the
National School Transportation
Association (NSTA), American School
Bus Council (ASBC), and school bus
manufacturers and dealers. NHTSA
anticipates contacting approximately
100 individuals across the country to
ask general questions related to seat belt
use in their jurisdictions. To the extent
possible, NHTSA will also identify
appropriate contact(s) in each school
district.
NHTSA will reach out to school
districts who have agreed to provide the
agency with more information on their
decisions to require seat belts on school
buses and the funding mechanisms that
are used to pay for seat belt installation.
Informational interviews will be
conducted with approximately 25
people, including State directors of
pupil transportation and local school
district professionals, to identify policy

09AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 152 / Wednesday, August 9, 2017 / Notices
components that influence seat belt
acquisition and use. Participants for the
Web-based survey will include school
bus drivers from participating school
districts. NHTSA expects to distribute
the survey to one or more bus drivers in
each of the school districts that
participate in the aforementioned
interview.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 133
hours total; approximately 44 hours per
year.
The initial discussions would take
approximately 5 minutes with 100
people for a total of 8 hours. The
informational interviews with school
districts would take an average of
approximately 4 hours with 25 people
for a total of 100 hours. (In some cases,
the necessary information may be
retrieved through a one-time telephone
or in-person discussion, while in other
cases discussions may continue via
telephone and email as an on-going
discussion throughout the course of the
project as school districts provide
additional information). The bus driver
survey would take 15 minutes with
approximately 100 people for a total of
25 hours.
Comments Are Invited on the Following
i. Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
ii. the accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
information collection;
iii. ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
iv. ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
A comment to OMB is most effective
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
