Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 82 / Tuesday, April 28, 2020 / Notices
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
stakeholders that seek to address issues
under the Board’s jurisdiction that are
not otherwise specifically provided for
under the Board’s other regulatory
provisions.
Number of Respondents:
Approximately four.
Estimated Time Per Response: 25
hours.
Frequency: On occasion. In calendar
years 2017–2019, approximately four
petitions of this type were filed with the
Board per year.
Total Burden Hours (annually
including all respondents): 100 hours
(estimated hours per petition (25) × total
number of petitions (4)).
Total ‘‘Non-hour Burden’’ Cost: $280
(estimated non-hour burden cost per
petition ($70) × total number of
petitions (four)).
Needs and Uses: Under 49 U.S.C.
1321 and 49 CFR part 1117 (the Board’s
catch-all petition provision), shippers,
railroads, and the public in general may
seek relief (such as waiver of the Board’s
regulations) not otherwise specifically
provided for under the Board’s other
regulatory provisions. Under section
1117.1, such petitions should contain
three items: (a) A short, plain statement
of jurisdiction, (b) a short, plain
statement of petitioner’s claim, and (c)
request for relief. The collection by the
Board of these petitions that parties
choose to file enables the Board to more
fully meet its statutory duty to regulate
the rail industry.
Under the PRA, a federal agency that
conducts or sponsors a collection of
information must display a currently
valid OMB control number. A collection
of information, which is defined in 44
U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c),
includes agency requirements that
persons submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to the agency, third
parties, or the public. Section 3507(b) of
the PRA requires, concurrent with an
agency’s submitting a collection to OMB
for approval, a 30-day notice and
comment period through publication in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information.
Dated: April 22, 2020.
Kenyatta Clay,
Clearance Clerk.
