Interested
parties are invited to send comments
regarding any aspect of this information
collection, including: (1) The necessity
and utility of the information collection
for the proper performance of the
functions of the FTA; (2) the accuracy
of the estimated burden; (3) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the collected information; and (4)
ways to minimize the collection burden
without reducing the quality of the
collected information. Comments
submitted in response to this notice will
be summarized and/or included in the
request for OMB approval of this
information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The current Federal Public
Transportation Law, 49 U.S.C. 5309, has
not changed the statutorily defined
project justification and local financial
commitment criteria that are the subject
of this information collection. In
addition, the statutorily required
approval steps for projects seeking CIG
funds have not changed. Thus, the
requirements for project evaluation and
data collection for these proposed
projects are not new and are unchanged.
In general, the information used by FTA
for CIG project evaluation and rating
should arise as a part of the normal
project planning process.
FTA has been collecting project
evaluation information from project
sponsors under the existing OMB
approval for this program (OMB No.
2132–0561).
Respondents: State and local
government.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 155 respondents.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
68,840 hours.
Frequency: Annually.
William Hyre,
Deputy Associate Administrator for
Administration.

Title: Fixed Guideway Capital
Investment Grants—New Starts Section
5309
OMB Number: 2132–0561.
Background: The Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) administers the
discretionary Capital Investment Grants
(CIG) grant program under 49 U.S.C.
Section 5309 that provides funding for
major transit capital investments
including rapid rail, light rail,
commuter rail, bus rapid transit, and
ferries. Three types of eligible projects
are outlined in law: Smaller scaled
corridor-based transit capital projects
known as ‘‘Small Starts’’; new fixed
guideway transit systems and
extensions to existing fixed guideway
systems known as ‘‘New Starts’’; and
projects to improve capacity at least 10
percent in existing fixed guideway
corridors that are at capacity today or
will be in five years, known as ‘‘Core
Capacity’’. The CIG program has a
longstanding requirement that FTA
evaluate proposed projects against a
prescribed set of statutory criteria at
specific points during the projects’
development including when they seek
to enter a subsequent phase of the
process or a construction grant
agreement. In addition, FTA must report
on its evaluations and ratings annually
to Congress.
