Abstract: Executive Order 12862 

‘‘Setting Customer Service Standards,’’ 

direct Federal agencies to provide 

service to the public that matches or 

exceeds the best service available in the 

private sector (58 FR 48257, Sept. 11, 

1993). In order to work continuously to 

ensure that our programs are effective 

and meet our customers’ needs, FMCSA 

seeks to obtain OMB approval of a 

generic clearance to collect qualitative 

feedback from our customers on our 

service delivery. The surveys covered in 

this generic clearance will provide a 

means for FMCSA to collect this data 

direct from our customers. The 

information collected from our 

customers and stakeholders will help 

ensure that users have an effective, 

efficient, and satisfying experience with 

FMCSA’s programs. This feedback will 

provide insights into customer or 

stakeholder perceptions, experiences 

and expectations, provide an early 

warning of issues with service, or focus 

attention on areas where 

communication, training or changes in 

operations might improve delivery of 

products or services. It will also allow 

feedback to contribute directly to the 

improvement of program management. 

The responses to the surveys will be 

voluntary and will not involve 

information that is required by 

regulations. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments regarding 

the burden estimate, including 

suggestions for reducing the burden, to 

the Office of Management and Budget,

of Transportation, Federal Motor Carrier

practical utility; the accuracy of the 

DOT’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed information collection; ways

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

A comment to OMB is most effective if 

OMB receives it within 30 days of 

publication of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Motor Carrier Safety Advisory 

Committee 

Section 4144 of the Safe, Accountable, 

Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity 

Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU) 

(Pub. L. 109–59, 119 Stat. 1144, Aug. 10, 

2005) required the Secretary of 

Transportation to establish a Motor 

Carrier Safety Advisory Committee. The 

Committee provides advice and 

recommendations to the FMCSA 

Administrator on motor carrier safety 

programs and regulations and operates 

in accordance with the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. App. 

2). 

Patterns of Safety Violations Task 

(MCSAC Task 11–01) 

Section 4133 of SAFETEA–LU allows 

the Secretary to suspend, amend, or 

revoke any part of a motor carrier’s 

registration if the Secretary finds that 

any individual, while serving as an 

officer of that motor carrier, engages or 

has engaged in a pattern or practice of 

avoiding compliance, or masking or 

otherwise concealing noncompliance, 

with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations and/or Hazardous Materials 

Regulations. Section 4133 defines an 

officer as ‘‘an owner, director, chief 

executive officer, chief financial officer, 

safety director, vehicle maintenance 

supervisor, and driver supervisor of a 

motor carrier, regardless of title attached 

to these functions, and any person, 

however designated, exercising 

controlling influence over the 

operations of a motor carrier.’’ 

Under MCSAC Task 11–01, FMCSA 

requests that the Committee identify 

concepts and ideas the Agency should 

consider in developing standards for 

Patterns of Safety Violations by Motor 

Carrier management to assist the Agency 

with implementing the requirements of 

section 4113 of SAFETEA–LU. In 

addition to providing suggestions on 

definitions and standards of what
