SUMMARY: This notice lists those forms, reports, and recordkeeping
requirements imposed upon the public which were transmitted by the
Department of Transportation to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for its approval in accordance with the requirements of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 USC Chapter 35). Section 3507 of
Title 44 of the United States Code, requires that agencies prepare a
notice for publication in the Federal Register, listing information
collection request submitted to OMB for approval or renewal under that
Act. OMB reviews and approves agency submissions in accordance with
criteria set forth in that Act. In carrying out its responsibilities,
OMB also considers public comments on the proposed forms and the
reporting and recordkeeping requirements. OMB approval of an
information collection requirement must be renewed at least once every
three years.
The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting
comments on the information collection described below was published on
October 27, 1998 [63 FR 57350].
DATES: Comments on this notice must be received on or before January
25, 1999.

but find that more than 10 days from the date of publication are needed
to prepare them, please notify the OMB official of your intent
immediately.
Comments are invited on: whether the proposed collections of
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions
of the Department, including whether the information will have
practical utility; the accuracy of the Department's estimate of the
burden of the proposed information collections; ways to enhance the
quality, utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

receives it within 30 days of publication.
