SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: Annual Tank Car Survey Background: On December 4, 2015, President Barack Obama signed legislation entitled ‘‘Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act of 2015,’’ or the ‘‘FAST Act.’’ See Public Law 114– 94. The FAST Act includes the ‘‘Hazardous Materials Transportation Safety Improvement Act of 2015’’ (see sections 7001 through 7311) and instructs the Secretary of Transportation to make specific regulatory amendments to the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR; 49 CFR parts 171–180), including requirements for rail tank car manufacturers to report their progress toward modifying rail tank cars used for the transportation of Class 3 flammable liquids in accordance with the timeline established in section 7304 of the FAST Act. This notice is applicable to section 7308(c) of the FAST Act which directs the Secretary to conduct an annual survey of tank car shops to acquire projections of the number of tank cars to be built or manufactured to the new safer specifications. This includes new tank cars built to the DOT Specification 117, or equivalent, as well as tank cars VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:53 Feb 26, 2024 Jkt 262001 modified to the DOT Specification 117R. Tank cars will include, but may not be limited to, those originally built to Specifications: DOT105, DOT109, DOT111, DOT112, DOT114, DOT115, and DOT120. Respondents: There are approximately 400 tank car facilities that are currently registered or certified to build or modify tank cars. However, the majority of these do not have the capacity to modify or build to the 117 or 117R Specifications. At most, an estimated 140 tank car shops have the capacity to build or modify to these new safety standards. Estimated Average Burden per Response: An estimated 140 facilities will provide a response to this request for information on an annual basis. It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete, including record keeping and reporting. This notice is intended to accurately account for the annual burden. Estimated Total Annual Burden: The estimated burden is equal to 70 annual burden hours (i.e., 140 responses per year × 0.5 hour per response). The total burden cost is estimated at $4,765 (i.e., 70 burden hours × $68.07, which is the per hour wage of $52.36 for a manager in Transportation, Storage, and Distribution plus 30% to account for benefits). Frequency: The survey frequency is prescribed by Section 7308(d) of the FAST Act. Specifically, the Secretary is required to conduct the survey annually until May 1, 2029 under Section 7308(c).
