Agency Information Collection Activities: Request for Comments for a New Information Collection, 65846-65847 [2022-23718]

Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 65846 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 210 / Tuesday, November 1, 2022 / Notices Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on May 18, 2022 (87 FR 30327). The information collected on the FAA Form 8120–11, Suspected Unapproved Parts Report, is reported voluntarily by manufacturers, repair stations, aircraft owner/operators, air carriers, and the general public who wish to report suspected unapproved parts (SUP) to the FAA for review. The report information is collected and correlated by the FAA Hotline Program Office, and used to determine if an unapproved part investigation is warranted. When unapproved parts are confirmed that are likely to exist on other products or aircraft of the same or similar design or are being used in other facilities, the information is used as a basis for an aviation industry alert or notification. Alerts are used to inform industry of situations essential to the prevention of accidents, if the information had not been collected. The consequence to the aviation community would be the inability to determine whether or not unapproved parts are being offered for sale or use for installation on typecertificated products. Procedures and processes relating to the SUP program and associated reports are found in FAA Order 8120.16A, Suspected Unapproved Parts Program, and Advisory Circular 21–29, Detecting and Reporting Suspected Unapproved Parts. When unapproved parts are identified, the FAA notifies the public by published Field Notifications, disseminated using Unapproved Parts Notifications, Aviation Maintenance Alerts, Airworthiness Directives, entry into an issue of the Service Difficulty Reporting Summary, a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin, a display on an internet site, or direct mailing. Reporting of information is strictly voluntary. The information is requested from any individual or facility suspecting an unapproved part. Any burden is minimized by requesting only necessary information to warrant an investigation. Respondents: Anyone may fill out and send FAA Form 8120–11to the FAA. Frequency: Whenever anyone discovers or suspects they have received an unapproved part. Estimated Average Burden per Response: About 30 minutes to read and disposition each form. Estimated Total Annual Burden: The FAA collects approximately 200 forms from the public per year.

SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00115 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Background: The Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Office of the Secretary and the Federal Highway Administration are committed to a comprehensive strategy to address the unacceptable number of traffic deaths and serious injuries occurring on our roads and streets. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), Section 24112 aligns with the Department’s safety priority through the creation of the Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program. This grant program supports local initiatives to prevent deaths and serious injuries on roads and streets and is intended for metropolitan planning organizations, political subdivisions of a State, Federally recognized Tribal governments, and multijurisdictional groups of these entities. This program includes grant funds to develop a comprehensive safety action plan; to conduct planning, design and development activities for projects and strategies identified in a comprehensive safety action plan; or to carry out projects and strategies identified in a comprehensive safety action plan. To receive applications for grant funds, evaluate the effectiveness of projects that have been awarded grant funds, and monitor project financial conditions and project progress, a collection of information is necessary. Eligible applicants will request Safe Streets and Roads for All funds in the form of a grant application. Additional information submission will be required of grant recipients during the grant agreement, implementation, and evaluation phases. Responding to the grant opportunity is on a voluntary-response basis, utilizing an electronic grant platform. The grant application is planned as a one-time information collection. DOT estimates that it will take approximately 30 hours to complete an application for a comprehensive safety action plan grant and approximately 110 hours to complete an application for an implementation grant. Respondents: Metropolitan planning organizations, political subdivisions of a State, Federally recognized Tribal governments and multijurisdictional groups of these entities. Frequency: one time per grant application. During the project management phase, the grantee will complete quarterly progress and monitoring reports to ensure that the project budget and schedule are maintained to the maximum extent possible, that compliance with Federal regulations will be met, and that the project will be E:\FR\FM\01NON1.SGM 01NON1 lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 210 / Tuesday, November 1, 2022 / Notices completed with the highest degree of quality. Reporting responsibilities include quarterly program performance reports using the Performance Progress Report (SF–PPR) and quarterly financial status using the SF–425 (also known as the Federal Financial Report or SF– FFR). Respondents: Grant recipients. Frequency: quarterly throughout the period of performance. During the project management phase, each grantee that expends $750,000 or more during their own fiscal year in all Federal awards must have a single or program-specific audit conducted for that year in accordance with the provisions of 2 CFR 200.501. (The $750,000 threshold is not limited to Safe Streets and Roads for All funding.) This reporting responsibility is required annually and uses a form, the SF–SAC. It is estimated that this survey will take an average of 100 hours for large auditees and 21 hours for all other auditees to complete, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Respondents: Grant recipients. Frequency: annually during any fiscal year in which $750,000 or more in any Federal funds are expended, throughout the period of performance. During the project evaluation phase, the reporting requirement is necessary to assess program effectiveness for the Federal government and to comply with Subsection 24112(g). This report provides information regarding how the project is achieving the outcomes that grantees have targeted to help measure the effectiveness of the Safe Streets and Roads for All Grant Program. In addition, under Subsection 24112(h), at the end of the period of performance for a grant under the program each grant recipient is required to submit a report that describes the costs of each eligible project carried out using the grant funds; the outcomes and benefits generated; the lessons learned; and any recommendations relating to future projects or strategies. Respondents: Grant recipients. Frequency: one time after the period of performance ends. Estimated Average Burden per Response: • Application phase: approximately 30 hours for the comprehensive safety action plan grants and 110 hours for the implementation grants per respondent. • Grant Agreement phase: approximately 1 hour per respondent (comprehensive safety action plan or implementation grant).
