Download as PDF khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 31784 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 113 / Tuesday, June 15, 2021 / Notices 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 summary below describes the ICR that FRA will submit for OMB clearance as the PRA requires: Title: Report of Railroad Trespasser Form. OMB Control Number: 2130–NEW. Abstract: Trespasser deaths on railroad rights-of-way and other railroad property are the leading cause of fatalities attributable to railroad operations in the United States. To address this serious issue, the railroad industry, governments (Federal, State, and local), and other interested parties must know more about the individuals who trespass. With such knowledge, specific educational programs, materials, and messages regarding the hazards and consequences of trespassing on railroad property can be developed and effectively distributed. Due to the lack of available root cause data, FRA proposes to collect data from law enforcement agencies to develop general descriptions of the root causes of trespassing. This will allow FRA and other interested parties, such as Operation Lifesaver, to target audiences with appropriate education and enforcement campaigns to reduce the resulting annual number of injuries and fatalities. Completion and submission of form FRA F 6180.178 will be required for law enforcement agency grantees, as a condition of FRA’s Railroad Trespassing Enforcement Grant. The grantees will complete the form for each trespasser incident in their jurisdiction, describing the trespassers’ race/ethnicity, gender and age to the best of their abilities. For law enforcement agencies not receiving FRA’s Railroad Trespassing Enforcement grants, completion and submission of this form is voluntary. For convenience to the respondents, FRA proposes an electronic option where the respondents can respond via a web-based form. The web-based form also will facilitate FRA’s ability to maintain the data collected in a more useful and uniform manner, as the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:02 Jun 14, 2021 Jkt 253001 dropdown boxes will assist FRA in receiving more standardized responses. Type of Request: Approval of a new collection of information. Affected Public: Public authorities. Form(s): FRA F 6180.178. Respondent Universe: Law enforcement agencies. Frequency of Submission: Monthly. Total Estimated Annual Responses: 3,300. Total Estimated Annual Burden: 550 hours. Total Estimated Annual Burden Hour Dollar Cost Equivalent: $26,180. Under 44 U.S.C. 3507(a) and 5 CFR 1320.5(b) and 1320.8(b)(3)(vi), FRA informs all interested parties that a respondent is not required to respond to, conduct, or sponsor a collection of information that does not display a currently valid OMB control number.
