timeframe and is considered the best 

available representation for American 

Samoa.6

—Guam: The past 10 years of data for 

annual average precipitation will be 

collected from the Guam Area from 

the Tiyan Forecast Office of NOAA. 

This is the most complete data set in 

the relevant timeframe and is 

considered the best available 

representation for Guam.7

—Northern Mariana Islands: The past 

10 years of data for the annual average 

precipitation will be collected from 

the Guam Area from the Tiyan 

Forecast Office of NOAA. There are 

no available weather stations in the 

Northern Mariana Islands. However, 

the Northern Mariana Islands are 

covered by the Tiyan Forecast Office 

and Guam is located approximately 

130 miles away. It has been 

determined that data from the Guam 

Area can be considered an acceptable 

surrogate for precipitation amounts in 

the Northern Mariana Islands.8

—U.S. Virgin Islands: The past 10 years 

of data for the annual average 

precipitation will be collected from 

the Christiansted Airport and St. 

Thomas weather stations from the San 

Juan Forecast Office of NOAA. These 

sources constitute the most complete 

data set in the relevant timeframe and 

are considered the best available 

representation for the U.S. Virgin 

Islands.9

D Total Population: Data for the total 

population factor will be from the most 

recent published U.S. Census Bureau 

decennial census. The initial allocation 

will be based on the 2010 U.S. Census 

and will be updated accordingly. 

—The states, the District of Columbia, 

and Puerto Rico population data will 

be taken from the U.S. Census Bureau 

State Population Totals and 

Components of Change.10

—American Samoa, Guam, Northern 

Mariana Islands, and U.S. Virgin 

Islands population data will be taken 

from the U.S. Census Bureau Island 

Area Tables.11

D Urban Population: The urban 

population factor for each state will be 

based on the available data from the 

most recent U.S. Census Bureau 

decennial census.12 The initial formula 

will be based on the 2010 U.S. Census 

and data will be updated as future 

decennial censuses are published. 

Urban population estimates for 

American Samoa, Guam, Northern 

Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin 

Islands are not available through the 

Census. The following alternative data 

sources will be used and updated as 

needed. 

—American Samoa: Data from the 

Central Intelligence Agency World 

Factbook will be used. The percentage 

of the total population considered to 

be urban (currently 87.2%) will be 

multiplied by the total population.13

—Guam: Data from the Central 

Intelligence Agency World Factbook 

will be used. The percentage of the 

total population considered to be 

urban (currently 94.9%) will be 

multiplied by the total population.14

—Northern Mariana Islands: Data from 

the Central Intelligence Agency World 

Factbook will be used. The percentage 

of the total population considered to 

be urban (currently 91.8%) will be 

multiplied by the total population.15

—U.S. Virgin Islands: Data from the 

Central Intelligence Agency World 

Factbook will be used. The percentage 

of the total population considered to 

be urban (currently 95.9%) will be 

multiplied by the total population.16

Abstract: SmartWay is open to 

organizations that own, operate, or 

contract with fleet operations, including 

truck, rail, barge, air and multi-modal 

carriers, logistics companies, and 

shippers. Organizations that do not 

operate fleets, but that are working to 

strengthen the freight industry, such as 

industry trade associations, state and 

local transportation agencies and 

environmental groups, also may join as 

SmartWay affiliates. All organizations 

that join SmartWay are asked to provide 

EPA with information as part of their 

SmartWay registration to annually 

benchmark their transportation-related 

operations and improve the 

environmental performance of their 

freight activities. 

A company joins SmartWay when it 

completes and submits a SmartWay 

Excel-based tool (‘‘reporting tool’’) to 

EPA. The data outputs from the 

submitted tool are used by partners and 

SmartWay in several ways. First, the 

data provides confirmation that 

SmartWay partners are meeting 

established objectives in their 

Partnership Agreement. The reporting 

tool outputs enable EPA to assist 

SmartWay partners as appropriate, and 

to update them with environmental 

performance and technology 

information that empower them to 

improve their efficiency. This 

information also improves EPA’s 

knowledge and understanding of the 

environmental and energy impacts 

associated with goods movement, and 

the effectiveness of both proven and 

emerging strategies to lessen those 

impacts. 

In addition to requesting annual 

freight transportation-related data, EPA 

may ask its SmartWay partners for other 

kinds of information which could 

include opinions and test data on the 

effectiveness of new and emerging 

technology applications, sales volumes 

associated with SmartWayrecommended vehicle equipment and 

technologies, the reach and value of 

partnering with EPA through the 

SmartWay Partnership, and awareness 

of the SmartWay brand. In some 

instances, EPA might query other freight 

industry representatives (not just 

SmartWay partners), including trade 

and professional associations, nonprofit 

environmental groups, energy and 

community organizations, and 

universities, and a small sampling of the 

general public.

Signature Page and Tractor Trailer 

Equipment Checklist: 5900–489, 

Affiliate Agreement: 5900–490, 

Designated License Agreement: 5900– 

491. 

Respondents/affected entities: Private 

and public organizations; freight 

industry representatives who engage in 

activities related to the SmartWay 

Partnership; and the general public. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

4,925 (total). 

Frequency of response: Once for 

affiliates and generally annually for 

partners. 

Total estimated burden: 12,830 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $861,881 (per 

year) for labor costs, includes $0 

annualized capital or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: Elimination 

of the Affiliate Challenge and 

efficiencies gained through the use of 

the online reporting tool have created 

burden reductions of 22 and 1,105 

respectively for a total reduction 1,127 

hours. These reductions counteract a 

total burden increase of 733 hours that 

results from increased participation in 

the program and burden calculation 

adjustments. In this renewal ICR there is 

an anticipated net reduction of 394 

hours.
