SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for FAA’s
performance; (b) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to
enhance the quality, utility and clarity
of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be
minimized without reducing the quality
of the collected information. The agency
will summarize and/or include your
comments in the request for OMB’s
clearance of this information collection.
OMB Control Number: 2120–0543.
Title: Pilots Convicted of Alcohol or
Drug-Related Motor Vehicle Offenses or
Subject to State Motor Vehicle
Administrative Procedure.
Form Numbers: No official form
numbers used.
Type of Review: Renewal of an
information collection.
Background: After a study and audit
conducted from the late 1970’s through
the 1980’s by the Department of
Transportation, Office of the Inspector
General, (DOT/OIG), the DOT/OIG
recommended the FAA find a way to
track alcohol abusers and those
dependent on the substance that may
pose a threat to the National Airspace
(NAS). Through a Congressional act
issued in November of 1990, the FAA
established a Driving Under the
Influence (DUI) and Driving While
Intoxicated (DWI) Investigations Branch.
The final rule for this program is found
in title 14 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR)—part 61 61.15.
This regulation calls for pilots
certificated by the FAA to send
PO 00000
Frm 00092
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
information regarding Driving Under the
Influence (or similar charges) of alcohol
and/or drugs to the FAA within 60 days
from either an administrative action
against their driver’s license and/or
criminal conviction. Part of the
regulation also calls for the FAA to seek
certificate action should an airman be
involved in multiple, separate drug/
alcohol related motor vehicle incidents
within a three-year period. Information
sent by the airmen is used to confirm or
refute any violations of these
regulations, as well as by the Civil
Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI) for
medical qualification purposes.
Collection by CAMI is covered under a
separate OMB control number 2120–
0034.
An airman is required to provide a
written report, with the following
information: name, address, date of
birth, airman certificate number, the
type of violation which resulted in the
conviction or administrative action, the
state which holds the records or action,
and a statement of whether the motor
vehicle action resulted from the same
incident or arose out of the same factual
circumstances related to a previously
reported motor vehicle action.
Respondents: 480 FAA airmen with
drug and alcohol related motor vehicle
actions provide approximately 599
reports per year over the last three years.
Frequency: On occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 30 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 30
minutes per report and 299.5 hours for
all reports annually.
Issued in Oklahoma City, OK, on June 2,
2023.

FMCSA announces its plan to submit
the Information Collection Request (ICR)
described below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval and invites the
public to comment. FMCSA is seeking
to renew an existing ICR titled,
‘‘Hazardous Materials Safety Permits.’’
This ICR requires companies holding
safety permits to develop
communication plans that allow for the
periodic tracking of hazardous materials
shipments. A record of the
communications that includes the time
of the call and location of the shipment
may be kept by either the driver (e.g.,
recorded in the logbook) or the
company. These records must be kept,
either physically or electronically, for at
least 6 months at the company’s
principal place of business or readily
available to the employees at the
principal place of business. This ICR
has been updated only to the extent that
the number of motor carriers with an
active Hazardous Materials (HM) Safety
Permit has increased from 987 to 1065.
DATES: Comments on this notice must be
received on or before July 10, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent

Background: The Secretary of
Transportation is responsible for
implementing regulations to issue safety
permits for transporting certain HM in
accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5101 et seq.
The HM Safety Permit regulations (49
CFR part 385, subpart E) require initial
or first time HM Safety Permit carriers
to file the Unified Registration System
Form MCSA–1. Update and renewal
applications must be filed with FMCSA
using the ‘‘Combined Motor Carrier
Identification Report and HM Permit
Application’’ (Form MCS–150B). The
HM Safety Permit regulations also
require carriers to have a security
program. As part of the HM Safety
Permit regulations, carriers are required
to develop and maintain route plans so
that law enforcement officials can verify
the correct location of the HM shipment.
FMCSA requires companies holding
permits to develop a communications
plan that allows for the periodic
tracking of the shipment. This
information covers the record of
communications that includes the time
of the call and location of the shipment.
The records may be kept by either the

Activities; New Information Collection:
Safety Impacts of Human-Automated
Driving System (ADS) Team Driving
Applications
Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), Department
of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
FMCSA announces its plan to submit
the Information Collection Request (ICR)
described below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for its
review and approval and invites public
comment. This notice invites comments
on a proposed information collection
titled ‘‘Safety Impacts of HumanAutomated Driving System (ADS) Team
Driving Applications.’’ It is a driving
simulator study with a series of
questionnaires that will quantify the
safety implications of team driving
applications between humans and ADSequipped commercial motor vehicles
(CMVs). Specifically, this study will
focus on team driving applications with
an SAE Level 4 (L4) CMV. In L4
automation, as specified by SAE (2021),
CMVs are capable of all functions and
controls necessary for driving without
human monitoring in limited
conditions, and the human driver will
not be asked to take over control of the
vehicle. The L4 CMV will not operate
outside of the conditions it was
designed for without human control.
Approximately 80 CMV drivers will
participate in the study. The study will
assess the safety benefits and disbenefits
of human-ADS team driving
applications and support the analysis of
potential requests for relief from
FMCSA’s hours-of-service (HOS)
regulations.
DATES: Comments on this notice must be
