SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with section 47107(h) of
Title 49, United States Code, this notice
is required to be published in the
Federal Register 30 days before
modifying the land-use assurance that
requires the property to be used for an
aeronautical purpose.
The property is located south of the
existing runway outside of the runway
protection zone. The land was acquired
via patent transfer from the federal
government in 1963. The sponsor
proposes to allow construction of a
community road for no fee to
accommodate emergency evacuation of
the residents.
The disposition of proceeds from the
lease of the airport property will be in

Procedures Concerning the Use of
Airport Revenue, published in the

(64 FR 7696).
This notice announces that the FAA
is considering the release of the subject
airport property at the Kivalina Airport,
Kivalina, Alaska from its obligations to
be maintained for aeronautical
purposes. Approval does not constitute
a commitment by the FAA to financially
assist in the change in use of the subject
airport property nor a determination of
eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from
the FAA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
FHWA, as the lead Federal agency, in
cooperation with the Kentucky
Transportation Cabinet (KYTC),
published a NOI on April 29, 2002 to
prepare an EIS for the construction of a
new segment of I–66 between the
Somerset Northern Bypass and London,
Kentucky. Subsequently, FHWA and
KYTC developed a DEIS that was signed
on June 1, 2006. FHWA hereby advises
the public, after coordination with the
KYTC, that we are rescinding the NOI
for the project and cancelling any work
associated with the EIS due to the
potential significant environmental
impacts and the lack of future
programmed funding.
Any future Federal-aided action
within this corridor will comply with
the environmental review requirements
of the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321), FHWA
environmental regulations (23 CFR 771)

Jkt 244001
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60-days notice to the public to
allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB
approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C.
3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8–12. FRA
invites interested parties to comment on
the following information collection
regarding: (1) Whether the information
collection activities are necessary for
FRA to properly execute its functions,
including whether the activities will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
FRA’s estimates of the burden of the
information collection activities,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used to
determine the estimates; (3) ways for
FRA to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information being
collected; and (4) ways for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
FRA believes that soliciting public
comment may reduce the administrative
and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information that
Federal regulations mandate. FRA
reasons that comments received will
advance three objectives: (1) Reducing
reporting burdens; (2) organizing
information collection requirements in a
‘‘user-friendly’’ format to improve the
use of such information; and (3)
accurately assessing the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
The summary below describes the
information collection that FRA will
submit to OMB for renewal as the PRA
requires:
Title: Grant Management
Requirements for Federal Railroad
Administration Grant Awards and
Cooperative Agreements (‘‘Awards’’).
OMB Control Number: 2130–0615.
Abstract: FRA is an Operating
Administration of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT). FRA solicits
grant applications for projects
including, but not limited to,
preconstruction planning activities,
safety improvements, congestion relief,
improvement of grade crossings, rail
line relocation, as well as projects that
encourage development, expansion, and
upgrades to passenger and freight rail

projects that meet FRA and governmentwide evaluation standards and align

construction projects that will result in
benefits or other tangible improvements
in rail corridors, service, safety, and
technology. These projects include
completion of preliminary engineering,
environmental, research and
development, final design, and
construction.
FRA requires systematic and uniform
collection and submission of
information, as approved by OMB, to
ensure accountability of Federal
assistance provided by FRA. Through
this information collection, FRA will
measure Federal award recipients’
performance and results, including
expenditures in support of agreed-upon
activities and allowable costs outlined
in a FRA Notice of Grant Award (NGA).
This information collection includes
OMB-required reports and
documentation, as well as additional
forms and submissions to compile
evidence relevant to addressing FRA’s
important policy challenges, promoting
cost-effectiveness in FRA programs, and
providing effective oversight of
programmatic and financial
performance.
FRA issues and manages awards in
compliance with 2 CFR part 200:
Uniform Administrative Requirements,
Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards. The
forms for which FRA is seeking renewal
of its current approval in this
information collection are listed below.
All non-research awards are subject to
the application, reporting, closeout, and
other processes described in this
justification.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520, and its
implementing regulations, Title 5 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) part 1320, require Federal agencies to provide 60-days notice to
the public to allow comment on information collection activities before
seeking OMB approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR

information collection regarding: (1) Whether the information
collection activities are necessary for FRA to properly execute its

methodology and assumptions used to determine the estimates; (3) ways

information collection activities on the public, including the use of
automated collection techniques or other forms of information

(2) organizing information collection requirements in a ``user-
