STEM careers by exposing them to
female role models. During the fiveweek program, foreign participants
engage with female leaders in projectbased mentorships at leading companies
in the Silicon Valley and Bay Area,
participate in professional development
workshops and networking events, and
travel to Washington, DC for targeted
meetings and special events to conclude
the program. After their completion of
the program, emerging leaders and
mentors have the opportunity to
reconnect during delegation trips to
program countries in Africa, South and
Central Asia, and the Middle East,
which focus on expanding networks of
women in STEM fields, creating and
strengthening partnerships, encouraging
girls to pursue STEM careers and
ensuring the sustainability of mentorfellow relationships. The authority for
this program is the Mutual Educational
and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961 (22
U.S.C. 2451 et seq.).
To evaluate the impact of the
program, the Bureau of Educational and
Cultural Affairs (ECA) intends to
conduct an evaluation of the program
covering the period of 2011 through
2019. The evaluation will determine the
strength and sustainability of
professional networks created by the
program and the extent to which these
networks have been leveraged for
collaborations between Alumnae to
enact change. In order to do so, ECA
contracted Social Impact (SI) in early
2020 to conduct an evaluation of the
TechWomen program.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Methodology
The evaluation will use a mixedmethods design including a quantitative
survey and key informant interviews
(KIIs). Data from these methods will be
used to assess the strength of mentoralumnae networks as a result of the
TechWomen project. The evaluation’s
approach prioritizes ECA utilization of
recommendations to maximize the reach
and impact of the TechWomen program.
The evaluation will include 40 Key
Informant Interviews in the Silicon
Valley/Bay Area. The sampling will
include Professional Mentors, Cultural
Mentors, and Impact Coaches. The
Evaluation Team (ET) will gather survey
data using the network survey platform
ONASurveys.com and will use data
from the online survey to provide visual

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
[Docket No. EP 730 (Sub-No.1)]
Roster of Arbitrators—Annual Update
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 11708, the
Board’s regulations establish a voluntary
and binding arbitration process to
resolve rail rate and practice complaints
that are subject to the Board’s
jurisdiction. Section 11708(f) provides
that, unless parties otherwise agree, an
arbitrator or panel of arbitrators shall be
selected from a roster maintained by the
Board. Accordingly, the Board’s rules
establish a process for creating and
maintaining a roster of arbitrators. 49
CFR 1108.6(b).
The Board most recently updated its
roster of arbitrators by decision served
February 13, 2020. The roster is
published on the Board’s website at
https://www.stb.gov/ (click the
‘‘Resources’’ tab, select ‘‘Litigation
Alternatives’’ from the dropdown menu,
and then click on the ‘‘arbitration’’ link).
As provided under 49 CFR 1108.6(b),
the Board updates the roster of
arbitrators annually. Accordingly, the
Board is now requesting the names and
qualifications of new arbitrators who
wish to be placed on the roster. Current
arbitrators who wish to remain on the
roster must notify the Board of their
continued availability and confirm that
the biographical information on file
with the Board remains accurate and, if
not, provide any necessary updates.
Arbitrators who do not confirm their
continued availability will be removed
from the roster. This decision will be
served on all current arbitrators.
Any person who wishes to be added
to the roster should file an application
describing his or her experience with
rail transportation and economic
regulation, as well as professional or
business experience, including
agriculture, in the private sector. Each
applicant should also describe his or her
training in dispute resolution and/or
experience in arbitration or other forms
of dispute resolution, including the
number of years of experience. Lastly,
the applicant should provide his or her
contact information and fees.
This year, all comments—including
filings from new applicants, updates to
PO 00000

existing arbitrator information, and
confirmations of continued
availability—should be submitted via efiling on the Board’s website by January
15, 2021.1 The Board will assess each
new applicant’s qualifications to
determine which individuals can ably
serve as arbitrators based on the criteria
established under 49 CFR 1108.6(b). The
Board will then establish an updated
roster of arbitrators by no-objection vote.
The roster will include a brief
biographical sketch of each arbitrator,
including information such as
background, area(s) of expertise,
arbitration experience, and geographical
location, as well as contact information
and fees. The roster will be published
on the Board’s website.
It is ordered:
1. Applications from persons
interested in being added to the Board’s
roster of arbitrators, and confirmations
of continued availability (with updates,
if any, to existing arbitrator information)
from persons currently on the
arbitration roster, are due by January 15,
2021.
2. This decision will be served on all
current arbitrators and published in the
Federal Register.
3. This decision is effective on the
date of service.
Decided: December 2, 2020.

Office of Proceedings.

ACTION: Notice of information collection;
request for comment.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) and its
implementing regulations, this notice
announces that FRA is forwarding the
Information Collection Requests (ICRs)
abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and comment. These ICRs
describe the information collections and
their expected burdens. On September
16, 2020, FRA published a notice
providing a 60-day period for public
comment on the ICRs.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before January
7, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed ICRs
should be sent within 30 days of
publication of this notice to
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
Find the particular ICR by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the

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 September 16,
2020, FRA published a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register soliciting comment
on the ICRs for which it is now seeking
OMB approval. See 85 FR 57932. FRA
received no comments in response to
this notice.
Before OMB decides whether to
approve the 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: Identification of Railroad Cars.1
OMB Control Number: 2130–0506.
Abstract: The collection of
information is associated with 49 CFR
1 FRA makes a revision to the title of OMB
Control Number 2130–0506 (formerly titled
Identification of Cars Moved in Accordance with
Order 13528).
