[FR Doc. 2023–14244 Filed 7–5–23; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 8026–09–P SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD [Docket No. FD 36647] lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Pennsylvania & Southern Railway, LLC—Acquisition and Operation Exemption—Letterkenny Industrial Development Authority Pennsylvania & Southern Railway, LLC (PSCC), a Class III rail carrier, has filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to acquire from Letterkenny Industrial Development Authority (LIDA) and to operate approximately 25 miles of rail line and associated right-of-way serving the Cumberland Valley Business Park and the Letterkenny Army Depot near Chambersburg, Franklin County, Pa., (the Lines). PSCC states that there are no mileposts on the Lines. According to the verified notice, PSCC has operated over the Lines pursuant to an agreement between PSCC and the Franklin County General Authority (FCGA) since 2004, and now PSCC seeks authority to acquire VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:07 Jul 05, 2023 Jkt 259001 ownership of the Lines from LIDA.1 PSCC states that the purchase would provide it with incentive to invest in the tracks and further development of the rail business. (Notice 4.) The verified notice states that the parties entered into an Agreement of Sale for PSCC to own and operate the Lines and that the transaction closed at the end of September 2022. PSCC states that, because it was already the operator of the Lines, it inadvertently did not file for the acquisition of the Lines at that time. PSCC states that it will commence operation of the Lines as the owner pursuant to the agreement as of the effective date of this notice of exemption. PSCC certifies that the proposed acquisition of the Lines does not involve any interchange commitments. PSCC further certifies that its projected revenues as a result of this transaction will not exceed those that would qualify it as a Class III carrier and will not exceed $5 million. The transaction may be consummated on or after July 20, 2023, the effective date of the exemption (30 days after the verified notice was filed). If the verified notice contains false or misleading information, the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) may be filed at any time. The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the effectiveness of the exemption. Petitions for stay must be filed no later than July 13, 2023. All pleadings referring to Docket No. FD 36647, should be filed with the Surface Transportation Board either via e-filing on the Board’s website or in writing addressed to 395 E Street SW, Washington, DC 20423–0001. In addition, one copy of each pleading must be served on PSCC’s representative, Eric M. Hocky, Clark Hill PLC, Two Commerce Square, 2001 Market Street, Suite 2620, Philadelphia, PA 19103. According to PSCC, this action is categorically excluded from environmental review under 49 CFR 1105.6(c) and from historic reporting requirements under 49 CFR 1105.8(b). Board decisions and notices are available at www.stb.gov. Decided: June 30, 2023. 1 According to the verified notice, LIDA owns the property and/or the easements on which the Lines are located. (Notice 4 n.2). LIDA previously assigned the easements to FCGA, which entered into operating agreements with PSCC. See Pa. & S. Ry.—Operation Exemption—Franklin Cnty. Gen. Auth., FD 34461 (STB served Feb. 12, 2004); See Pa. & S. Ry.—Operation Exemption—Franklin Cnty. Gen. Auth., FD 35893 (STB served Jan. 8, 2015). FCGA, in turn, subsequently reassigned the easements back to LIDA. (Id.) PO 00000 Frm 00089 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 43167 By the Board, Mai T. Dinh, Director, Office of Proceedings.

Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval of this information collection. Title: Public Transportation Safety Program. Background: Congress directed FTA to establish a comprehensive Public Transportation Safety Program in the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (Pub. L. 112–141; July 6, 2012) (MAP–21), which was reauthorized by the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (Pub. L. 114–94; December 4, 2015). The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, enacted as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Pub. L. 117–58; November 15, 2021), continues FTA’s authority to regulate public transportation systems that receive Federal financial assistance under chapter 53. 49 U.S.C. 5329(f) authorizes FTA to ‘‘require the production of documents by, and prescribe recordkeeping and reporting requirements for, a recipient VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:07 Jul 05, 2023 Jkt 259001 or a State safety oversight agency’’ for the purposes of carrying out the Federal Public Transportation Safety Program. FTA is seeking approval of an information collection that will allow FTA to collect safety related data from transit agencies, State Safety Oversight Agencies (SSOAs), and States. FTA will use this information collection to assess how recipients of Federal financial assistance under chapter 53 are complying with FTA safety requirements and recommendations and ensuring safe transportation systems for the riders and patrons using each system, the workers operating each system, and the pedestrians interacting with each system. FTA may also use this collection to assist in determining whether there is a need for new or revised safety requirements. This collection is different from the existing safety related collections associated with the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan Program (2132–0580), the Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program (2132– 0578), and the State Safety Oversight Program (2132–0558). The aforementioned collections are approved to collect information related to the requirements of those safety programs while this new collection is intended to cover other safety issues, including emerging safety concerns. The information captured through this data collection will enable FTA to respond to existing safety issues and be proactive to address potential and emerging safety concerns. This information collection is essential to FTA’s safety oversight and grant-making roles—both critical to the Agency’s mission of improving public transportation for America’s communities. Respondents: Transit agencies, State safety oversight agencies, and States. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: 855 (768 transit agencies, 31 SSOAs, 56 States including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Virgin Islands).

    49 U.S.C. 5329(f) authorizes FTA to ``require the production of

of carrying out the Federal Public Transportation Safety Program. FTA
