(202) 267–8442.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion: Pursuant to 14 CFR
120.109(b), the FAA Administrator’s
decision on whether to change the
minimum annual random drug testing
rate is based on the reported random
drug test positive rate for the entire
aviation industry. If the reported
random drug test positive rate is less
than 1.00%, the Administrator may
continue the minimum random drug
testing rate at 25%. In 2023, the random
drug test positive rate was 0.881%.
Therefore, the minimum random drug
testing rate will remain at 25% for
calendar year 2025.
Similarly, 14 CFR 120.217(c), requires
the decision on the minimum annual
random alcohol testing rate to be based
on the random alcohol test violation
rate. If the violation rate remains less
than 0.50%, the Administrator may
continue the minimum random alcohol
testing rate at 10%. In 2023, the random
alcohol test violation rate was 0.141%.
Therefore, the minimum random
alcohol testing rate will remain at 10%
for calendar year 2025.
If you have questions about how the
annual random testing percentage rates
are determined, please refer to the Code
of Federal Regulations Title 14, section
120.109(b) (for drug testing), and
120.217(c) (for alcohol testing).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The PRA,
44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, and its
implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to
provide 60 days’ notice to the public to
allow comment on information
collection activities before seeking OMB
approval of the activities. See 44 U.S.C.
3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.8 through
1320.12. Specifically, FRA invites
interested parties to comment on the
following ICR regarding: (1) whether the
information collection activities are
necessary for FRA to properly execute
its functions, including whether the
activities 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 for FRA to
minimize the burden of information
collection activities on the public,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology. See 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A); 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1).
FRA believes that soliciting public
comment may reduce the administrative
PO 00000

and paperwork burdens associated with
the collection of information that
Federal regulations mandate. In
summary, comments received will
advance three objectives: (1) reduce
reporting burdens; (2) organize
information collection requirements in a
‘‘user-friendly’’ format to improve the
use of such information; and (3)
accurately assess the resources
expended to retrieve and produce
information requested. See 44 U.S.C.
3501.
The summary below describes the ICR
that FRA will submit for OMB clearance
as the PRA requires:
Title: Hours of Service Regulations.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0005.
Abstract: FRA’s hours of service
recordkeeping regulations (49 CFR part
228), amended as mandated by the Rail
Safety Improvement Act of 2008,
include substantive hours of service
requirements for train employees (i.e.,
locomotive engineers and conductors)
providing commuter and intercity rail
passenger transportation (e.g., maximum
on-duty periods, minimum off-duty
periods, and other limitations). The
regulations also require railroads to
evaluate passenger train employee work
schedules for risk of employee fatigue
and implement measures to mitigate the
risk, and to submit to FRA for approval
certain schedules and mitigation plans.
Finally, the regulations include
recordkeeping and reporting provisions
requiring railroads to keep hours of
service records, and report excess
service, for train employees, signal
employees, and dispatching service
employees on both freight and
passenger railroads. FRA uses the
information collected to verify that
railroads do not require or allow their
employees to exceed maximum on-duty
periods and ensure that they abide by
minimum off-duty periods, and adhere
to other limitations, to enhance rail
safety and reduce the risk of accidents/
incidents caused, or contributed to, by
train employee fatigue.
In this 60-day notice, FRA is updating
existing form FRA F 6180.3 Hours of
Service Report to make the following
edits:
• The term ‘‘Division’’ has been
changed to ‘‘Place of Excess Service
(City/State)’’.
• Changing ‘‘Train or Engine Number
(if train or engine crew)’’ to ‘‘Train ID/
Job ID’’.
• ‘‘Type of Service’’ has been updated
by adding the following check boxes:
‘‘TEY’’; ‘‘Signal’’; ‘‘Dispatch’’
(respondent will check one box to reflect
the type of service being performed at
the time of excess service).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion: Pursuant to 14 CFR 120.109(b), the FAA Administrator's
decision on whether to change the minimum annual random drug testing
rate is based on the reported random drug test positive rate for the
entire aviation industry. If the reported random drug test positive

rate was 0.881%. Therefore, the minimum random drug testing rate will
remain at 25% for calendar year 2025.
Similarly, 14 CFR 120.217(c), requires the decision on the minimum
annual random alcohol testing rate to be based on the random alcohol
test violation rate. If the violation rate remains less than 0.50%, the
Administrator may continue the minimum random alcohol testing rate at
10%. In 2023, the random alcohol test violation rate was 0.141%.
Therefore, the minimum random alcohol testing rate will remain at 10%
for calendar year 2025.
If you have questions about how the annual random testing
percentage rates are determined, please refer to the Code of Federal
Regulations Title 14, section 120.109(b) (for drug testing), and
120.217(c) (for alcohol testing).
