which is referred to as the ‘‘Act.’’ The
Act provides funding for airport
planning and development projects at
airports included in the National Plan of
Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS).
The Act also authorizes funds for noise
compatibility planning and to carry out
noise compatibility programs. The
information required by this program is
necessary to protect the Federal interest
in safety, efficiency, and utility of the
airport. Data is collected to meet report
requirements of 2 CFR part 200 for
certifications and representations,
financial management and performance
measurement.

Administration (FRA), U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice of information collection;
request for comment.
AGENCY:
Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, FRA seeks
approval of the Information Collection
Requests (ICRs) abstracted below. Before
submitting these ICRs to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
approval, FRA is soliciting public
comment on specific aspects of the
activities identified below.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before July 29,
2019.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments
on the ICRs activities by mail to either:
Mr. Robert Brogan, Information
Collection Clearance Officer, Office of
Railroad Safety, Regulatory Analysis
Division, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590; or
Ms. Kim Toone, Information Collection
Clearance Officer, Office of Information
Technology, Federal Railroad
Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590.
Commenters requesting FRA to
acknowledge receipt of their respective
comments must include a self-addressed
stamped postcard stating, ‘‘Comments
on OMB Control Number 2130–XXXX,’’
(the relevant OMB control number for
each ICR is listed below) and should
also include the title of the ICR.
Alternatively, comments may be faxed
to (202) 493–6216 or (202) 493–6497, or
emailed to Mr. Brogan at robert.brogan@
dot.gov, or Ms. Toone at kim.toone@
dot.gov. Please refer to the assigned
OMB control number in any
correspondence submitted. FRA will
summarize comments received in
response to this notice in a subsequent
notice and include them in its
information collection submission to
OMB for approval.

The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 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 through
1320.12. Specifically, FRA invites
interested parties to comment on the
following ICRs 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 will promote its efforts to
reduce the administrative and
paperwork burdens associated with the
collection of information that Federal
regulations mandate. In summary, FRA
reasons that comments received will
advance three objectives: (1) Reduce
reporting burdens; (2) ensure that it
organizes information collection
requirements in a ‘‘user-friendly’’ format
to improve the use of such information;
and (3) accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
The summaries below describe the
ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
Title: Designation of Qualified
Persons.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0511.
Abstract: The collection of
information is used to prevent the
unsafe movement of defective freight
cars. Railroads are required to inspect
freight cars for compliance and to
determine restrictions on the

Title: Roadway Worker Protection.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0539.
Abstract: On June 10, 2016, FRA
amended its Roadway Worker
Protection (RWP) regulation (see 81 FR
37840) to resolve interpretative issues
that had arisen since the original 1996
promulgation of that rule. In particular,
this final rule adopted certain terms,
resolved miscellaneous interpretive
issues, codified certain FRA Technical
Bulletins, adopted new requirements
governing redundant signal protections
and the movement of roadway
maintenance machinery over signalized
non-controlled track, and amended
certain qualification requirements for
roadway workers. This final rule also
deleted three outdated incorporations
by reference of industry standards in
FRA’s Bridge Worker Safety Standards,
and cross referenced the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration’s
regulations on the same point.
Under the information collection
associated with the RWP rule (49 CFR
part 214), FRA collects a variety of
information. To ensure compliance with
the rule’s requirements, FRA collects
data on affected railroads’ on-track
safety programs to determine that
railroads have policies, procedures, and
practices in place that protect roadway
workers as they go about doing their
daily jobs in a dangerous environment.
Railroads are required to provide ontrack safety manuals to all roadway
workers that they can readily consult as
a guide when an issue arises as to how
to complete a work assignment while
maintaining complete safety. Under the
regulation, railroads are required to
provide initial and recurrent training to
roadway workers on their on-track
safety program and the procedures to be
followed to perform their daily work
assignments. This includes training for
roadway workers who work on adjacent
track and the appropriate practices and
procedures they must follow. FRA

CFR section
collects data from railroads on training
through the records that they are
required to keep. Additionally, FRA
collects information on violations of
workplace safety on Form FRA F
6180.119. FRA uses violation
information to make changes that
endanger railroad workers. Overall, FRA
uses the information that it collects
under this regulation to monitor and
enforce requirements relating to the
safety of roadway workers and ensure
that railroads fulfill their
responsibilities to make roadway
workers environment secure and free
from unnecessary and avoidable
hazards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to issue
two notices seeking public comment on
information collection activities before
OMB may approve paperwork packages.
See 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8
through 1320.12. On February 22, 2019,
FRA published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register soliciting comment on
the ICRs for which it is now seeking
OMB approval. See 84 FR 5807. FRA
received no comments in response to
this notice.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve these proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for
public comment. Federal law requires
OMB to approve or disapprove
paperwork packages between 30 and 60
days after the 30-day notice is
published. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b)–(c); 5 CFR
1320.12(d); see also 60 FR 44978, 44983,
Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes the 30-day
notice informs the regulated community
to file relevant comments and affords
the agency adequate time to digest
public comments before it renders a
decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995.
Therefore, respondents should submit
their respective comments to OMB
within 30 days of publication to best
ensure having their full effect.

Comments are invited on the
following ICRs regarding: (1) Whether
the information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
information 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 to minimize the
burden of information collection
activities on the public, including the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
The summaries below describe the
ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
Title: Safety Appliance Standards
Guidance Checklist Forms.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0565.
Abstract: Sample car/locomotive
inspections are performed upon request
as a courtesy to the car manufacturers to
ensure that the equipment is built in
accordance with the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR). Car manufacturers
that desire to have FRA review their
equipment for compliance with the CFR
may submit their request to FRA for
review at least 60 days prior to initial
construction. Although a sample car
inspection is not required, most car
manufacturers today request the
inspection. By helping ensure that
rolling stock equipment is built
compliant with the CFR, the sample car
inspection program reduces the safety
risk to railroad employees, passengers,
and the general public.
In an ongoing effort to conduct more
thorough and effective inspections of
freight railroad equipment and to
further enhance safe rail operations,
FRA has developed a group of guidance
checklist forms that facilitate railroad,
rail car owner, and rail equipment
manufacturer compliance with 49 CFR
part 231, Railroad Safety Appliance
Standards. Because 49 CFR part 231 was
supplemented and expanded several

ACTION: Notice of information collection; request for comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, FRA seeks approval of the Information
Collection Requests (ICRs) abstracted below. Before submitting these
ICRs to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval, FRA is
soliciting public comment on specific aspects of the activities
identified below.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before
July 29, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments on the ICRs activities by mail to
either: Mr. Robert Brogan, Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Office of Railroad Safety, Regulatory Analysis Division, Federal
Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC
20590; or Ms. Kim Toone, Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Office of Information Technology, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200
New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590. Commenters requesting FRA
to acknowledge receipt of their respective comments must include a
self-addressed stamped postcard stating, ``Comments on OMB Control
Number 2130-XXXX,'' (the relevant OMB control number for each ICR is
listed below) and should also include the title of the ICR.
Alternatively, comments may be faxed to (202) 493-6216 or (202) 493-
6497, or emailed to Mr. Brogan at [email protected], or Ms. Toone
at [email protected]. Please refer to the assigned OMB control number
in any correspondence submitted. FRA will summarize comments received
in response to this notice in a subsequent notice and include them in
its information collection submission to OMB for approval.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Robert Brogan, Information
Collection Clearance Officer, Office of Railroad Safety, Regulatory
Analysis Division, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202) 493-6292) or Ms. Kim
Toone, Information Collection Clearance Officer, Office of Information
Technology, Federal Railroad Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE,
Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: (202) 493-6132).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 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 through 1320.12. Specifically,
FRA invites interested parties to comment on the following ICRs
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 will promote its
efforts to reduce the administrative and paperwork burdens associated
with the collection of information that Federal regulations mandate. In
summary, FRA reasons that comments received will advance three
objectives: (1) Reduce reporting burdens; (2) ensure that it organizes
information collection requirements in a ``user-friendly'' format to
improve the use of such information; and (3) accurately assess the
resources expended to retrieve and produce information requested. See
44 U.S.C. 3501.
The summaries below describe the ICRs that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
Title: Designation of Qualified Persons.

Title: Roadway Worker Protection.
OMB Control Number: 2130-0539.
Abstract: On June 10, 2016, FRA amended its Roadway Worker
Protection (RWP) regulation (see 81 FR 37840) to resolve interpretative
issues that had arisen since the original 1996 promulgation of that
rule. In particular, this final rule adopted certain terms, resolved
miscellaneous interpretive issues, codified certain FRA Technical
Bulletins, adopted new requirements governing redundant signal
protections and the movement of roadway maintenance machinery over
signalized non-controlled track, and amended certain qualification
requirements for roadway workers. This final rule also deleted three
outdated incorporations by reference of industry standards in FRA's
Bridge Worker Safety Standards, and cross referenced the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration's regulations on the same point.
Under the information collection associated with the RWP rule (49
CFR part 214), FRA collects a variety of information. To ensure
compliance with the rule's requirements, FRA collects data on affected
railroads' on-track safety programs to determine that railroads have
policies, procedures, and practices in place that protect roadway
workers as they go about doing their daily jobs in a dangerous
environment. Railroads are required to provide on-track safety manuals
to all roadway workers that they can readily consult as a guide when an
issue arises as to how to complete a work assignment while maintaining
complete safety. Under the regulation, railroads are required to
provide initial and recurrent training to roadway workers on their on-
track safety program and the procedures to be followed to perform their
daily work assignments. This includes training for roadway workers who
work on adjacent track and the appropriate practices and procedures
they must follow. FRA collects data from railroads on training through
the records that they are required to keep. Additionally, FRA collects
information on violations of workplace safety on Form FRA F 6180.119.
FRA uses violation information to make changes that endanger railroad
workers. Overall, FRA uses the information that it collects under this
regulation to monitor and enforce requirements relating to the safety
of roadway workers and ensure that railroads fulfill their
responsibilities to make roadway workers environment secure and free
from unnecessary and avoidable hazards.
