Title: Metrics and Minimum
Standards for Intercity Passenger Rail
Service.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0632.1
Abstract: On October 16, 2008,
President George W. Bush signed into
law the Passenger Rail Investment and
Improvement Act of 2008, Public Law
110–432, 122 Stat. 4907 (PRIIA). Section
207 of PRIIA requires FRA and Amtrak
jointly to develop new or improved
metrics and minimum standards for
measuring the performance and service
quality of intercity passenger train
operations, including cost recovery, ontime performance and minutes of delay,
ridership, on-board services, stations,
facilities, equipment, and other services
Section 207 also calls for consultation
with the Surface Transportation Board,
rail carriers over whose rail lines
Amtrak trains operate, States, Amtrak
employees, and groups representing
Amtrak passengers, as appropriate.
Section 207 further provides that the
metrics, at a minimum, must include:
the percentage of avoidable and fully
allocated operating costs covered by
passenger revenues on each route;
ridership per train mile operated;
measures of on-time performance and
delays incurred by intercity passenger
trains on the rail lines of each rail
carrier; and, for long-distance routes,
measures of connectivity with other
routes in all regions currently receiving
Amtrak service and the transportation
needs of communities and populations
that are not well-served by other forms
of intercity transportation.
Section 207 also provides that the
FRA Administrator must collect the
necessary data and publish a quarterly
report on the performance and service
quality of intercity passenger train
operations, including Amtrak’s cost
recovery, ridership, on-time
performance and minutes of delay,
causes of delay, on-board services,
stations, facilities, equipment, and other
services.
In connection with the Congressional
mandate, FRA’s Metrics and Minimum
Standards for Intercity Passenger Rail
Service final rule (49 CFR part 273) sets
forth a number of metrics that must be
collected. 85 FR 72971. On November
23, 2020, FRA published a request for
emergency processing of a collection of

collection is 2130–0632. The number was
mistakenly listed incorrectly as 2130–0623 in the

information because FRA could not
reasonably comply with normal
clearance procedures to timely collect
ridership data metrics and certified
schedule metrics as required by 49 CFR
273.5(b) and (c). 85 FR 74783. This ICR
request covers all metrics set forth in the
final rule, including those covered by
the emergency clearance.

informs all interested parties that a
respondent is not required to respond
to, conduct or sponsor a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

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
Request (ICR) abstracted below. Before
submitting this ICR to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
approval, FRA is soliciting public
comment on specific aspects of the
activities identified in the ICR.
SUMMARY:
2 As noted in the 60-day notice, the respondent
universe for the required reporting in 49 CFR
273.5(c)(2) is 24 railroads.
3 As also noted in the 60-day notice, the estimates
for the first year include one-time start up burdens
and the annual response, burden and total cost
equivalent estimates are expected to decrease after
the first year of this 3-year ICR period.

Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before April 19,
2021.
DATES:
Submit comments and
recommendations for the proposed ICR
to Ms. Hodan Wells, Information
Collection Clearance Officer at email:
hodan.wells@dot.gov or telephone: (202)
493–0440, and Mr. John Purnell,
Information Collection Clearance Officer
at email: john.purnell@dot.gov or
telephone: (202) 493–0500. 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.
ADDRESSES:
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 ICR 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. In
summary, FRA reasons that comments
received will advance three objectives:
(1) Reduce reporting burdens; (2)
organize 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.

will use its Fiscal Year (FY) 2021
entitlement funds (referred to as
apportionments in 49 U.S.C. 47114) to
accomplish Airport Improvement
Program (AIP) eligible projects. Each
sponsor has previously identified to the
FAA such projects through the Airports
Capital Improvement Plan process. This
action further announces May 3, 2021,
as the deadline for an airport sponsor to
submit a final grant application to use
FY 2021 entitlement funds.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David F. Cushing, Manager, Airports
Financial Assistance Division, APP–
500, at (202) 267–8827.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title 49
U.S.C. 47105(f) provides that the
sponsor of an airport for which
entitlement funds are apportioned shall
notify the Secretary, by such time and
in a form as prescribed by the Secretary,
of the airport sponsor’s intent to submit
a grant application for its available
entitlement funds. Therefore, the FAA is
hereby notifying such airport sponsors
of the steps required to ensure that the
FAA has sufficient time to carry over
and convert remaining entitlement
funds.
The AIP grant program is operating
under the requirements of Public Law
115–254, the ‘‘FAA Reauthorization Act
of 2018,’’ enacted on October 5, 2018,
which authorizes the AIP through
September 30, 2023, and Public Law

and Urban Development, and Related
Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021,’’
which appropriates FY 2021 funds for
the AIP through September 30, 2021. In
accordance with legislation enacted as
of the date of this notice, the AIP has
approximately $2.3 billion of
entitlement funds available through
September 30, 2021.
This notice applies only to those
airports that have entitlement funds
apportioned to them, except those
nonprimary airports located in
designated Block Grant States.
An airport sponsor intending to apply
for any of its available entitlement
funds, including those unused but still
available in accordance with 49 U.S.C.
47117 from prior years, must notify the
FAA of its intent to submit a grant
application by 12 p.m. prevailing local
time on Monday, March 15, 2021.
This notice must be in writing and
address all entitlement funds available
to date for FY 2021, including those
entitlement funds not obligated from
prior years. These notifications are
critical to ensure efficient planning and
administration of the AIP. The final
grant application deadline is Monday,
May 3, 2021. The final grant application
funding requests should be based on
bids, not estimates. The FAA will
carryover the remainder of available
entitlement funds after the above date as
prescribed under 49 U.S.C. 47117.
These funds will not be available again

Proposed Agency Information Collection Activities; Comment
Request
AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT).
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 Request (ICR) abstracted below. Before submitting this ICR
to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval, FRA is
soliciting public comment on specific aspects of the activities
identified in the ICR.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before
April 19, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments and recommendations for the proposed ICR to
Ms. Hodan Wells, Information Collection Clearance Officer at email:
[email protected] or telephone: (202) 493-0440, and Mr. John Purnell,
Information Collection Clearance Officer at email: [email protected]
or telephone: (202) 493-0500. 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.
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 ICR
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. In summary, FRA reasons
that comments received will advance three objectives: (1) Reduce
reporting burdens; (2) organize 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 summary below describes the ICR that FRA will submit for OMB
clearance as the PRA requires:
