    Title: 49 U.S.C. Section 5320 Paul S. Sarbanes Transit in Parks 
Program (OMB Number: 2132-0574).
    Background: Section 3021 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, 
Efficient Transportation Equity Act--A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), 
as amended, established the Paul S. Sarbanes Transit in Parks Program 
(Transit in Parks Program--49 U.S.C. 5320). The program was 
administered by FTA in partnership with the Department of the Interior 
(DOI) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Forest Service. The 
program provided grants to Federal land management agencies that manage 
an eligible area, including but not limited to the National Park 
Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, 
the Forest Service, the Bureau of Reclamation; and State, tribal and 
local governments with jurisdiction over land in the vicinity of an 
eligible area, acting with the consent of a Federal land management 
agency, alone or in partnership with a Federal land management agency 
or other governmental or non-governmental participant. The purpose of 
the program was to provide for the planning and capital costs of 
alternative transportation systems that will enhance the protection of 
national parks and Federal lands; increase the enjoyment of visitors' 
experience by conserving natural, historical, and cultural resources; 
reduce congestion and pollution; improve visitor mobility and 
accessibility; enhance visitor experience; and ensure access to all, 
including persons with disabilities. The Paul S. Sarbanes Transit in 
the Parks program was repealed under the Moving Ahead for Progress in 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for programs repealed by MAP-21 remain available for their originally 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are fully expended, the funds are rescinded by Congress, or the funds 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.
    Respondents: Transit agencies, States, and Metropolitan Planning 
Organizations.
    Estimated Annual Burden on Respondents: Approximately 2 hours for 
each of the 2 remaining respondents.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 4 hours.
    Estimated Total Burden Cost: $255.32.
    Frequency: Annually.

Director Office of Management Planning.
