Title: Reduction of Truck Emissions at Port Facilities Grant
Program.
Background: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) created the
Reduction of Truck Emissions at Port Facilities (RTEPF), which includes
a discretionary grant program that was allocated up to $400 million
over the five-year life of the BIL. The BIL provides the RTEPF Grant
Program funding to test, evaluate, and deploy projects that reduce
port-related emissions from idling trucks, including through the
advancement of port electrification and improvements in efficiency,
focusing on port operations, including heavy-duty commercial vehicles,
and other related projects.
Respondents: Eligible applicants for RTEPF Grant Program funds are
entities that (1) have authority over, operate, or utilize port
facilities and/or intermodal port transfer facilities, (2) have
authority over areas within or adjacent to ports and intermodal port
transfer facilities, or (3) will test and/or evaluate technologies that
reduce truck emissions at port facilities and/or intermodal port
transfer facilities.
Frequency: RTEPF Grant Program Notices of Funding Opportunity
(NOFOs) will be issued annually during the life of the BIL, though some
years of funding created for the program may be combined, resulting in
a multi-year NOFO.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 86 hours per respondent per
application.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: The total annual burden hours
are 3,300 hours.
Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of
this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed
collection is necessary for the FHWA's performance; (2) the accuracy of
the estimated burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that
the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic
technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information.
The agency will summarize and/or include your comments in the request
for OMB's clearance of this information collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter
35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.48.
