Background: The FHWA plans to update its Freight Planning Web site
by adding a new feature that will collect information and photographs
about
[[Page 17754]]
freight planning activities from the FHWA's public sector partners.
This information will be reviewed by the FHWA on a monthly basis to
determine which project will be posted on the Web site as an
informational and educational tool for the FHWA's public sector
audiences that are engaged in freight planning activities and/or are
beginning to develop their freight planning activities. State
Departments of Transportation, metropolitan planning organizations, and
local government agencies will provide a description of case studies on
freight planning and implementation, which can include plans or
projects, or both.
Respondents: State Departments of Transportation, metropolitan
planning organizations, and local government agencies.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: It is estimated that each State
Department of Transportation, metropolitan planning organization, and
local government agency will spend about one hour to prepare and to
provide their freight plans or projects to the FHWA. The estimated
total annual burden is 60 hours.
Frequency: On-going basis.
ADDRESSES: You may send comments to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street,
NW., Washington, DC 20503, Attention: DOT Desk Officer. 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 burden; (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.
Privacy Act: Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all
comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual
submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf
