FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tia Swain, Office of Administration,
Management Planning Division, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Mail Stop TAD-
10, Washington, DC 20590 (202) 366-0354 or <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#b1c5d8d09fc2c6d0d8dff1d5dec59fd6dec7"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="205449410e535741494e60444f540e474f56">[email protected]</span></a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA),
Public Law 104-13, Section 2, 109 Stat. 163 (1995) (codified as revised
at 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, require Federal agencies to issue two notices seeking public
comment on information collection activities before OMB may approve
paperwork packages. 44 U.S.C. 3506, 3507; 5 CFR 1320.5, 1320.8(d)(1),
1320.12. On May 4, 2021 FTA published a 60-day notice (86 FR 23781) in
the Federal Register soliciting comments on the ICR that the agency was
seeking OMB approval. FTA received no comments after issuing this 60-
day notice. Accordingly, DOT announces that these information
collection activities have been re-evaluated and certified under 5 CFR
1320.5(a) and forwarded to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5
CFR 1320.12(c).
Before OMB decides whether to approve these proposed collections of
information, it must provide 30 days for public comment. 44 U.S.C.
3507(b); 5 CFR 1320.12(d). Federal law requires OMB to approve or
disapprove paperwork packages between 30 and 60 days after the 30-day
notice is published. 44 U.S.C. 3507(b)-(c); 5 CFR 1320.12(d); see also
60 FR 44978, 44983, Aug. 29, 1995. OMB believes that the 30-day notice
informs the regulated community to file relevant comments and affords
the agency adequate time to digest public comments before it renders a
decision. 60 FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995. Therefore, respondents should
submit their respective comments to OMB within 30 days of publication
to best ensure having their full effect. 5 CFR 1320.12(c); see also 60
FR 44983, Aug. 29, 1995.
The summaries below describe the nature of the information
collection requirements (ICRs) and the expected burden. The
requirements are being submitted for clearance by OMB as required by
the PRA.

assist non-attainment and maintenance areas in achieving or maintaining

those technologies. The Clean Fuels Grant Program was repealed under
the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21).
However, funding previously authorized for programs repealed by MAP-21
remain available for their originally authorized purposes until the
period of availability expires, the funds are fully expended, the funds
are rescinded by Congress, or the funds are otherwise reallocated.

profit institutions, and non-profit institutions.
